“The Five Fingers of Hervies”
392Please respect copyright.PENANA7cQHqyCQev
Five of the most dedicated enforcers are marching across Brosse, they are the392Please respect copyright.PENANALDVzjh5X7A
elite force of the Human Kingdom and for years they have unrelentingly392Please respect copyright.PENANABDiSP99pAx
served its interests or what their king deems those to be. This most special of392Please respect copyright.PENANAVOBDYgzcMf
all task units were formed as soon as the, back then, noticeably young King Hervies392Please respect copyright.PENANAfOu1aSXuEf
first took the throne.392Please respect copyright.PENANAoL5eUZNvgv
It was one of his very first acts as a sovereign, the creation of this Hervies Hand.392Please respect copyright.PENANA4Brr3MJiIc
The young king wanted from the very start to secure all sorts of advantages possible392Please respect copyright.PENANAZov2FtIkg8
to him. Not many ever questioned its purpose as it was always somewhat guessed by392Please respect copyright.PENANAFnntDcJvLP
all. Hervies had always been fascinated by anything Centra even as a young prince, and392Please respect copyright.PENANAbI5aH9N8i5
so when the time came to finally bury his father and take the reins of the kingdom for392Please respect copyright.PENANA21ZdnqWwad
himself, most people already had a very good idea of the direction things were about392Please respect copyright.PENANAJ7hJsrYse6
to take. Sparing no cost or effort he hastily spread all the Human resources over the392Please respect copyright.PENANAIqw61yXvyQ
known charts, even more so than any of his predecessors. He quickly revealed a Centra392Please respect copyright.PENANAE8OHijEKqf
obsession far greater than any other before him, with even larger amounts of capital392Please respect copyright.PENANA95hBzzU4Qs
being invested in digs and all sorts of research.392Please respect copyright.PENANAYaS707niuZ
So, in the first few years under his rule, Human civilization had discovered more392Please respect copyright.PENANATZkqrcEgth
and advanced further than under any other ruler but it would not end just there.392Please respect copyright.PENANANhfJjR4D0D
As soon as he took the throne, he initiated what would later be named the Hervies392Please respect copyright.PENANAvMOpOvtXNp
Hand. It was one of his pet projects, one that he would in the end so proudly bestow392Please respect copyright.PENANAk1tIjjShuq
upon his own name; a special project to achieve what was to some to be unthinkable.392Please respect copyright.PENANAZdZymkrdgD
The creation of a special unit to go where no other could and reach what anyone else392Please respect copyright.PENANA1ST2YXGPVq
would be afraid of, both horizontally and vertically. To reach into the far edges of the392Please respect copyright.PENANAC4W2bj5a3z
unknown charts if need be, where even the mighty Nharkim and their machinery392Please respect copyright.PENANAYQ05MlNn0g
dare not venture or if their king wills it deep into the roots of the underground worlds392Please respect copyright.PENANA37C4TXiky4
where even the Twinkledinnes are afraid to set foot.392Please respect copyright.PENANAkH4PRjhsBp
And to achieve all of that, they had to be carefully chosen and overwhelmingly392Please respect copyright.PENANA2AZaWjKV8d
prepared, not only physically but mentally as well. They ought to be able to beat the392Please respect copyright.PENANA6TMrNnrMcd
best combatants and teach some of the best scholars. They should be able to stand392Please respect copyright.PENANApfWtCvhlrg
against all conceivable threats and understand all possible scenarios and so, with this392Please respect copyright.PENANAQEsZ86nab4
in mind, King Hervies charged all of his best instructors in all sorts of fields to go out392Please respect copyright.PENANAR8E4qSCZyw
there and find these soon to be chosen elite.392Please respect copyright.PENANAdphRW4d7wk
Each of the five warlords, soldiers of great worth, famous across the land since the392Please respect copyright.PENANA1YpNtg4UL5
times of the young king’s father, were charged to travel the world and find, recruit and392Please respect copyright.PENANA5KTe8KrjgG
train, one worthy of the task. They were specifically instructed to disregard sex or race,392Please respect copyright.PENANADKXG4xCgDG
even age or the original will to join or the lack of, of those they would deem suitable,392Please respect copyright.PENANAqip3CV27TF
and so they did. Who knows how far they travelled till finally each one of the five had392Please respect copyright.PENANApT6uYDPXRs
an apprentice under its wing, and what these forced their newfound chosen to face in392Please respect copyright.PENANABNeEkW1yZg
the year that was given to them to accomplish this?392Please respect copyright.PENANAKAuXCuaC8M
Adventures, all worthy of their telling no doubt.392Please respect copyright.PENANAk1ekwfzONU
One year finally came to pass and all five finally made their return to the capital392Please respect copyright.PENANAQ4GwVVFFZH
and, as they knelt before the throne and crown, they revealed to their king the fruits392Please respect copyright.PENANAA0ipReySwi
of their efforts. These five younglings were presented, the very first, thus beginning in392Please respect copyright.PENANAvEPu2ckblP
this manner the five-warrior tradition.392Please respect copyright.PENANAyRCVdzF5p6
Five to be specialists, one for each finger of a human hand, someone amongst the392Please respect copyright.PENANA790bQUJc4G
royal court pointed out.392Please respect copyright.PENANAYjiWpEXzjW
And so, with that in mind, it wasn’t hard for Hervies to finally name the group392Please respect copyright.PENANAUEWKbZBaBQ
accordingly and for the last ten years, they have served him successfully.392Please respect copyright.PENANAcQ0v2KIJgi
Always five they are, no matter the weather, with only very few replacements ever392Please respect copyright.PENANAhoPK8U4Y6Q
taking place during all this time.
