Chapter 2 in The Guild Rookie

To anyone still reading- I was happy to finally get this story out, and while it is a project I am still passionate about, working off of the original years old script meant that my current additions feel a bit out of place. As such, I am going to move on and leave this cuerent...

(Coming soon!)

Introduction

by Nuck

Chapter 1 in The Guild Rookie

Here, there be monsters. This world is cruel, it's inhabitants wicked. Magic, it seems, gives way only to the most vile of men and monster, giving them only more power to impose their evil upon the world. But the ray of shining hope against it all is the Guild- an elite company...

Bounty Board

by Nuck

Chapter 2 in The Guild Rookie

Welcome to the bounty board. As a new member of the Guild, you are permitted to try your hand on any of the outstanding contracts. More bounties will be listed as time passes. Please remember that these are the most dangerous targets we have and that direct confrontations should...

The Witch Coven

by Nuck

Chapter 3 in The Guild Rookie

The Witch's Coven. For years, the group was nothing but a harmless collection of young girls setting off to survive this world on their own. Strange in their ways, surely- spiritual and free. Their strange behavior and isolation raised many eyebrows, but the rare glance at one o...

Begin Bounty

by Nuck

Chapter 4 in The Guild Rookie

The trek through the woods was nothing, and here you are at the entrance! Dozens of male corpses are pinned to and hung from the trees here, necromantic symbols scrawled on virtually every surface. At the gate, stands what you know must be a demon- this one closely resembles a bu...

Try Bargaining

by Nuck

Chapter 5 in The Guild Rookie

"Creature of Hell, I ask that you allow me entry to this cave, where I will free you of those who chain you to this earthly plane!" The Demon's nose twitches, and a cackle begins to be heard. It moves from its cautious stance to a commanding one, nearly surrounding you on its ow...

Try Tricking

by Nuck

Chapter 5 in The Guild Rookie

"Creature! I have returned with our supplies, allow me entrance at once!" "Hmm... of course, of course..." It speaks, it's voice raspy and grating to your ears. "But I'm going to have to ask for some manner of payment. I've been stuck with this gate all day, with no visitors!"...

Accept Proposal

by Nuck

Chapter 6 in The Guild Rookie

You grip your sword in your sheath, but you opt not to pull it out. This is a demon- not something you can take in a fight just yet. Reluctantly, your first move as an official Hunter of the Guild, fully trained knight and hardened warrior, tested by might and trial of steel- is...

Attack Instead

by Nuck

Chapter 6 in The Guild Rookie

In one movement, you both draw your blade and slash at the creature, doing your best to break free of the loose grip it had made on you with its wings. It didn't work. Your energetic little spin had only gotten you turned around- and now you could feel the thing's manhood press...

Continue Deception

by Nuck

Chapter 6 in The Guild Rookie

Reluctantly, you approach the Demon, closing your eyes and muttering to yourself. This is absurd, and if anyone knew that a warrior such as yourself was stooping to such levels, you'd be kicked out of the Guild in a heartbeat. Still, you desperately need to get through the gate....

Enter the Coven

by Nuck

Chapter 7 in The Guild Rookie

As you step into the cave, your eyes take a moment to readjust- the doors slam shut behind you, sending you teetering forward, but you quickly come to your wits, regain your footing, and take to the shadows. Sneaking through the cave, you see Witch after Witch, (and the occasion...

Attempt Attacking

by Nuck

Chapter 6 in The Guild Rookie

You pull out your trusty knife, and attempt to gut the beast. You pull back to prepare a mighty thrust, but the Demon smacks the blade away with its tail. You recoil immediately and grab your hand- that stung like a whip. Before you can regather yourself, it smacks you with its...

Continue Searching

by Nuck

Chapter 8 in The Guild Rookie

As you walk now, you can keep the center, behaving as inconspicuously as possible. You try to walk with pride, nose up and chest out, anything to make it seem like you belong. And as several witches pass you by without remark, you smirk to yourself. Only when one demon passes by...

Follow the Witches

by Nuck

Chapter 9 in The Guild Rookie

"Oh, thank you! A thousand times, thank you!" Said the blonde girl, who was now squealing and jumping in excitement beside her companion, who walked with her nose turned up. "A thousand thank yous, I'll never forget this!" The black haired girl did not respond as they walked, cle...

Pursue the Doe Girl

by Nuck

Chapter 10 in The Guild Rookie

As you approach the door, you hear a guttural, primal sound, clearly coming from an inhuman source. Every now and then, the roaring quiets enough for you to hear the constant meek sob or shriek beneath it. You enter the door slowly, not wanting to attract either of their attenti...

Pursue the Raven Girl

by Nuck

Chapter 10 in The Guild Rookie

Staying as far behind as you can without being noticed, you do your best to match the pace of your target- the mean spirited, black haired bully. Every now and then a witch passes the other way, but nobody takes any notice of you. As you walk, you notice a key fall out of the wi...
