It had been nearly a year since the defeat of Jacyn Ravenlock, who had committed several acts of atrocity in the name of unadulterated revenge.
Acts that had affected not only the family he had worked so hard to enact that revenge upon, but an entire city and its defenders as well. Several lives had been lost, and more damage than many had ever known, not only on a physical level, but mentally as well.
And it would have been so much worse than anyone would have ever imagined, had it not been for the many who had taken a stand against Jacyn and his dark forces. Some of those took that stand in plain sight for everyone to speak of, while others were not so fortunate and had to take that stand in places that were not so pleasant and more so, situations that were even less.
Working together"be it planned or no, each of these 'stands" resulted in the utter defeat of Jacyn and his forces.
However, there was another stand that many were not aware of.
A stand that resulted in the literal crippling of Jacyn's "Ebon' forces, allowing those who stood against those forces, to finally have an even playing field and more so, overwhelm those dark forces that sought to destroy all that had opposed them.
It had begun with a man"a simple smith, as he would tell you.
A man who had delved into the very depths of Jacyn's depravations and through that, was able to save not only himself, not only the many"but his own daughter as well. A daughter who had unwittingly, created the very weapon that had given Jacyn the edge over all that had stood against him.
The Ebonsteele.
It is because of this simple smith and the daughter he saved, that the Ebonsteele had been shattered, and through that—- all of Jacyn's forces as well.
Very few had ever known of this man's role within the chaos that was Jacyn's fall, and he never sought thanks, or praise for those efforts.
Efforts that Brian Ravenlock had never forgotten, nor would the Ravenlock Patriarch ever forget the incredible efforts of the'simple smith.
The man known as Kruger.
So there Brian was, searching for the man who had been so instrumental, in regards saving so many.
Because he wanted to let the man know"
Just how much it had all meant to him, and his family.
