Cresting the hill Nasir looked down at the small village of Felsworth.
An old stone wall surrounded village, a mark of times that had long since passed. Two guards stood at the gates, their leathers worn and old, spears crooked. At the very center of the town stood a tower, standing over the other structures. At it's very peak shone a soft light, a pale and soft glow that enveloped and looked over the town.
"There." Nasir said to his companion.
The Dark Elf came to a stop, looking down at the town before letting his gaze briefly flicker towards Callisto. Felsworth was well known around these parts. A city of devout belief. Every man, woman, and child believed in the Divine, the tower at the center of the city acting as a temple. Daily prayer was a ritual here, and the people would gather to offer their thanks to the divine.
It was said that in return to the Divine protected them.
The eerie blue light that faded over the town was a mark of that. An odd sort of magic that Nasir did not recognize. He could feel it, even standing this far away, yet it's substance alluded him. Fingers curled slightly. "It is said that those who pray to the divine are protected by the tower."
Just what that meant no one really knew. Bandits avoided Felsworth, murder was unheard of, and crime was seemingly non-existent. It almost made one wonder why they bothered having Town Guard at all.
"There is a stone within the tower." Nasir explained. "It is what holds whatever protects this village. Once I have that, you may do as you please with the village."
Just as they had discussed.
