Ardarlan. Ardarlan is a city with in the realm of Eirela, a realm littered with strange secrets and deadly individuals who want to rule as the king of Adarlan, inside Ardarlan is a guild of assassins who will train to become their best and inside the guild is a woman, who tried to kill the king of Adarlan but had to watch as the king ordered her lover killed and her to be dumped into a sewer, which she later escaped and created the Guild. Celaena watched over the city of Adarlan from the roof top of the guild and wondered if any recruits would come and train with a wrench and lowlife like her, that is what she thought of her self, she had see so many die for her and wondered if she could protect the students long enough for the assassins to become like her skill level, at the side of her she had a glass of expensive wine, which she kept either on the rooftop in a hiding place or in her master bedroom in the guild.

Kalin looks at the city as he and Shadow draw close. " kid i hate having to leave you in this place but there is not much more that i can teach you when i'm wanted dead on sight. but i know that there are people here that will train you while i'm gone." Shadow sighed and walked a bit faster to get away from kalin and his stupid need to talk to him. Shadow liked being alone ever since his parents had been killed.

At a passing glance, one might think her eyes blue or gray, perhaps even green, depending on the color of her clothing. Up close, though, these warring hues were offset by the brilliant ring of gold around her pupils. But it was her golden hair that caught the attention of most, hair that still maintained a glimmer of its glory. In short, Celaena Sardothien was blessed with a handful of attractive features that compensated for the majority of average ones; and, by early adolescence, she’d discovered that with the help of cosmetics, these average features could easily match the extraordinary assets. But now, standing before Dorian Havilliard as little more than a gutter rat! Her face warmed as Captain Westfall spoke. “I didn’t want to keep you waiting.” The Crown Prince shook his head when Chaol reached for her. “Don’t bother with the bath just yet. I can see her potential.” The prince straightened, keeping his attention on Celaena. “I don’t believe that we’ve ever had the pleasure of an introduction. But, as you probably know, I’m Dorian Havilliard, Crown Prince of Adarlan, perhaps now Crown Prince of most of Erilea.” She ignored the surge and crash of bitter emotions that awoke with the name. “And you’re Celaena Sardothien, Adarlan’s greatest assassin. Perhaps the greatest assassin in all of Erilea.” He studied her tensed body before he raised his dark, well-groomed brows. “You seem a little young.” He rested his elbows on his thighs. “I’ve heard some rather fascinating stories about you. How do you find Endovier after living in such excess in Rifthold?” Arrogant ass. “I couldn’t be happier,” she crooned as her jagged nails cut into her palms. “After a year, you seem to be more or less alive. I wonder how that’s possible when the average life expectancy in these mines is a month.” “Quite a mystery, I’m sure.” She batted her eyelashes and readjusted her shackles as if they were lace gloves. The Crown Prince turned to his captain. “She has somewhat of a tongue, doesn’t she? And she doesn’t sound like a member of the rabble.” That was a flash back, that haunted her.. that was the moment she watched her lover die and she couldn't do anything to stop it

Chris sat on top of a balcony with a cup of tea at hand. He overlooked the city where he was supposed to make a name for himself. With half a smile he sipped his tea, of course lifting his pinky, as all the gentleman do. How was he supposed find a job? That was the next big question. Nevetheless he would gaze out to the open to find something interesting. Looking straight forward, he saw a girl looking over a rooftop. Perhaps an assasin? He wouldn't be surprised. Seemed like she was having some bad thought. He drank the rest of his tea, set it down gently on the table, and gracefully hopped onto another roof for a closer look. Seems like a beauty! Well it would have been so ungentleman of him to leave such a beauty alone. Still, she is an assasin from what he could gather. It would quite interest him. He jumped couple of more roofs, until he came and sat right next to the lady. "A fine day today~" He said with a proper smile.

"Hello" she said as she looked straight forward wearing her golden jeweled mask, that was a gift from her Master 15 years ago, she killed him 2 years ago for sending her away to a desert, then she looked at him, and he wasn't much but with her training she could make him a better killer

Chris analyzed her. From what he could tell, she didn't flinch at his abrupt entrance. Indeed she was an assassin! Her gaze told it all, the cold bloodied stare of a murderer - he has seen this before - that couldn't be an ordinary human, no, it had to be one of a high class assassin. There was a lot he could learn from such a pretty lady, though he couldn't see her face properly because of the mask. Her eyes told the tale. Nevertheless, Chris decided to play it coy. He knew he couldn't kill her the way he is now, but perhaps one day... Chris shook his head, and brought his smile up again. "And what, may I ask is a fine lady like you doing up here by yourself?" As he said this Chris saw two figures (Kalin and Shadow) walking about this way. Perhaps they too were assassins. Interesting.

Shadow walked into the city and then turned to Kalin " See you when ever you fix the mess you made this time. i have things to do here anyways." he then walked away deeper into the city making sure to stick with large groups of people so that he didn't have to deal with any of the guards. Kalin smiled and turned away from the city so that he didn't have risk having anyone try to kill his this time.

“Why do you care,“ Celaena got up and wandered back into the guild and then took of her mask

Indeed her beauty was fine. He wanted to pursue her, but thought not so gentleman of him. He brushed off his long black hair, and let out a bit of air, before looking again to see the two figures splitting. One was going away from the city, so as to avoid conflict. One was blending with the crowd. Had Chris not been trained, he would have lost track of the figure. Nevertheless, he jumped off the rooftop and landed behind the dark haired one (Shadow).

Celaena filled a hot bath for herself and got in as she wondered if these were the people she would have to train, if she had not gone to the king that night, her lover would still be alive and it was all her fault

Shadow noticed the person jump down to land behind him. he never gave them a sign that he knew they were there. he walked with the crowd and then slipped into a side ally. he let one of his daggers slide into his hand just in case anyone follows him.

She just lay there for a time then she dried her self then walked out to the roof top looking for any type of dhady activity happening, then seen something coming out of the castle, she squinted her eyes, and seen Elite guards, “shit oh my god“ what could she do to warn her recruits, elites kill anything with a bladed item on them, she started to think about a fire, then got to work trying to alert the recruits

Shadow slipped out the back of the ally and kept on moving towards his current target. he knew that this one would be a good test of his skills. the other assassins in the city wouldn't even try this target from what he had heard. he smiled as he saw the Elite guards moving away from the castle. he set his targets picture in his mind and started his hunt.

She started the first fire twenty metres from the guild with a guild torch then started another fire “ shit i cant warn them, GET OUT OF THERE“ she shouted to no avail, she quickly ran into the guild and got her red and yellow silk dress and then put on her mask and ran out of the guild and towards the elite guard to battle them

Dallas sat atop the roof of the local blacksmith. He keenly watched the elite guards marching from a distance. He quietly slipped down the sloped roof and landed heavily on the ground. He cursed silently at the sound. He stood up straight and pulled his hood onto his head with a flick of his wrist. He pulled out one of his knives and examined it carefully. The blade was sufficiently sharp, but he would have stole inside the blacksmith and sharpened it if he had the time. He carefully hid the knife inside his cloak again and began moving. He sneaked into a nearby alley and peered around the corner of the wall. The elite guard were marching down the very same street. He frowned. Was this a simple patrol, or were they searching for someone? He swept his gaze over the crowd, looking for a possible disturbance. He spotted smoke starting rise up nearby. Possibly a fire had broken out. He turned away and looked up at one of the rooftops. He jumped and grabbed onto the rim of the flat roofed building. He strained and pulled himself up with some effort. He crouched low on the balls of his feet and his finger tips. He carefully watched the progress of the elite soldiers, and kept an eye out on whoever they might be after.

Celaena saw the Elites and drew her sword and slowly started to walk infront of them, she swiped her sword at one of them they must have been quick because her sword hit steel and she was kicked into wall, slightly injuring her, as she regained her composure, she seen five guards surrounding her “Shit, if i was younger you would be dead by now, lowlife guards“

Dallas watched what appeared to be an insane woman jump out and attack the elite guards. One of the guards easily deflected her attack and kicked her into the wall. They moved to surround her. Dallas shook his head. What was she trying to accomplish? Did she really think she would be able to hold them all off at the same time? What a fool. He continued watching the scene unfold. He had not yet seen who they might be after, but it could very well the woman herself. He caught a whiff of smoke. He glanced up. It seemed that the fire was slowly but surely starting to lose control. Embers flew and the fire grew ever higher.

Celaena let her instincts kick in, she saw a blade coming her and bobbed under it then stabbed the guard swiftly then spun around to get a throwing knife and threw one at another.

“Fuck this“ Celaena sheathed her sword already injured, she ran and jumped on a window ledge then reached up and lifted herself up and seen a strange figure, she put her hand on the hilt of her sxord

Dallas watched the woman climb up to the rooftop next to his. He pulled back in alarm as he realized she spotted him. He allowed no expression cross his face and acted quickly but calmly. He reached a hand into his coat and tightly held the hilt of his knife. His eyes flicked between the woman and the elite guard. They definitely were not going to let him go quietly like this. He looked at the woman. "What are you doing?" He asked, his eyes quietly glaring at her.
