“The Five Fingers of Hervies”
311Please respect copyright.PENANACLvOGoGSrE
Five of the most dedicated enforcers are marching across Brosse, they are the311Please respect copyright.PENANAUbnnHcikYO
elite force of the Human Kingdom and for years they have unrelentingly311Please respect copyright.PENANAwuOPZ69gb1
served its interests or what their king deems those to be. This most special of311Please respect copyright.PENANAV8FFL8PWWs
all task units were formed as soon as the, back then, noticeably young King Hervies311Please respect copyright.PENANAM1Jql7I2VR
first took the throne.311Please respect copyright.PENANAnOsIGAXxQE
It was one of his very first acts as a sovereign, the creation of this Hervies Hand.311Please respect copyright.PENANAaGpxgulDKa
The young king wanted from the very start to secure all sorts of advantages possible311Please respect copyright.PENANAayRWLB5f6T
to him. Not many ever questioned its purpose as it was always somewhat guessed by311Please respect copyright.PENANARzmG7T6zTy
all. Hervies had always been fascinated by anything Centra even as a young prince, and311Please respect copyright.PENANAvi9g50KBjD
so when the time came to finally bury his father and take the reins of the kingdom for311Please respect copyright.PENANAWREHCVkbHK
himself, most people already had a very good idea of the direction things were about311Please respect copyright.PENANAASFc8iyFAZ
to take. Sparing no cost or effort he hastily spread all the Human resources over the311Please respect copyright.PENANAKEoRtynlzf
known charts, even more so than any of his predecessors. He quickly revealed a Centra311Please respect copyright.PENANApoRy9zX6Wn
obsession far greater than any other before him, with even larger amounts of capital311Please respect copyright.PENANAoPle7zQuLQ
being invested in digs and all sorts of research.311Please respect copyright.PENANAPdmG8qbGaS
So, in the first few years under his rule, Human civilization had discovered more311Please respect copyright.PENANAQnfYfNibzU
and advanced further than under any other ruler but it would not end just there.311Please respect copyright.PENANAvBsxfEtlwT
As soon as he took the throne, he initiated what would later be named the Hervies311Please respect copyright.PENANA9b24y222Vh
Hand. It was one of his pet projects, one that he would in the end so proudly bestow311Please respect copyright.PENANAGMX8BLXZMO
upon his own name; a special project to achieve what was to some to be unthinkable.311Please respect copyright.PENANAzMLdgk30AQ
The creation of a special unit to go where no other could and reach what anyone else311Please respect copyright.PENANAcLccrERGuH
would be afraid of, both horizontally and vertically. To reach into the far edges of the311Please respect copyright.PENANACpJHvnWylQ
unknown charts if need be, where even the mighty Nharkim and their machinery311Please respect copyright.PENANAJHMQGkPbVv
dare not venture or if their king wills it deep into the roots of the underground worlds311Please respect copyright.PENANARHFDcR6VUu
where even the Twinkledinnes are afraid to set foot.311Please respect copyright.PENANA1ZVPzPxa7i
And to achieve all of that, they had to be carefully chosen and overwhelmingly311Please respect copyright.PENANAOhMbm6Sbka
prepared, not only physically but mentally as well. They ought to be able to beat the311Please respect copyright.PENANADBFWbQkoPK
best combatants and teach some of the best scholars. They should be able to stand311Please respect copyright.PENANAf2r2wHsMb3
against all conceivable threats and understand all possible scenarios and so, with this311Please respect copyright.PENANAJezf0D7C1z
in mind, King Hervies charged all of his best instructors in all sorts of fields to go out311Please respect copyright.PENANALeHr08dtdr
there and find these soon to be chosen elite.311Please respect copyright.PENANA8uuezkVwZ2
Each of the five warlords, soldiers of great worth, famous across the land since the311Please respect copyright.PENANAofKdvASUUd
times of the young king’s father, were charged to travel the world and find, recruit and311Please respect copyright.PENANADgEzBzy3J8
train, one worthy of the task. They were specifically instructed to disregard sex or race,311Please respect copyright.PENANA4bdSlUWn3S
even age or the original will to join or the lack of, of those they would deem suitable,311Please respect copyright.PENANAMbri7BEsfy
and so they did. Who knows how far they travelled till finally each one of the five had311Please respect copyright.PENANAjoWurg8T9Q
an apprentice under its wing, and what these forced their newfound chosen to face in311Please respect copyright.PENANAvZFmQj6E1x
the year that was given to them to accomplish this?311Please respect copyright.PENANAwusn3Y3wG9
Adventures, all worthy of their telling no doubt.311Please respect copyright.PENANAqcDwTUwKcs
One year finally came to pass and all five finally made their return to the capital311Please respect copyright.PENANAiv01o8T6JI
and, as they knelt before the throne and crown, they revealed to their king the fruits311Please respect copyright.PENANArA7O7G1GkI
of their efforts. These five younglings were presented, the very first, thus beginning in311Please respect copyright.PENANAPrz3DFkHWa
this manner the five-warrior tradition.311Please respect copyright.PENANAWJZKX08z8X
Five to be specialists, one for each finger of a human hand, someone amongst the311Please respect copyright.PENANAnkjg4WyzyO
royal court pointed out.311Please respect copyright.PENANA5EsbUpJnab
And so, with that in mind, it wasn’t hard for Hervies to finally name the group311Please respect copyright.PENANALN6dxIEq3F
accordingly and for the last ten years, they have served him successfully.311Please respect copyright.PENANAAPIkDqeBzx
Always five they are, no matter the weather, with only very few replacements ever311Please respect copyright.PENANA6MLYU7FGNL
taking place during all this time.
