I would like to say thank you to all of those people that put their time and effort into writing for the Assassin's Creed Story Competition. It has taken a while to narrow down the finalists and then to come down to one winner was difficult.
So, please throw a big congratulations to.
BTOG46!
“What happened? You ask me what happened? I'll tell you, someone owes me for a cart full of the finest pomegranates, that's what happened!
I'd just arrived at the market place, and was about to set up my stall as usual, when I noticed that someone had left a hay cart in my usual spot. So I did what any respectable merchant would do, I shoved the flipping thing out of the way, and parked my cart there instead.
I turned away to say hello to my first customer of the day, when bang!! splattered pomegranates flying everywhere, I turn back to my cart and there's a very angry bloke waving a sword at me and complaining I'd tried to kill him and ruin his “leap of faith” whatever that is.
So I did what anyone would have done in those circumstances, I ran for my flipping life, yelling for the City guards. As I turned a corner, I bumped into a patrol, explained about the crazy guy in white robes, and they drew their swords and ran round the corner.
That's when the Camel dung really started to fly, the crazy guy started hacking those poor guards to pieces, blood everywhere, it was him that killed those guards, not me, so why stand here asking me what happened, you should be looking for him, not hassling an honest merchant.
I mean, how hard can it be to spot someone wearing white robes, covered in pomegranate juice and bloodstains, with swords and knives strapped all over him? Maybe you should just follow the trail of blood and juice? It leads into that pile of hay over there.
In the meantime, I'm off home, I've had just about all I can take for one day, best of luck catching that guy, and watch out for the weird move he does with his left hand.............”
Can you PM over your details BTOG46 so we can get the Assassin's Creed prizes sent off to you. Again, congratulations and thank you to everyone for entering.
Freedom - a mountain in the distant sky, love in the grass, birds on the vast plains of the sea... Freedom - I treasure your name, I love your sweet sound, I smell your dreams.
I see you - when I turn away I hold you -when my hands are full
Freedom - Never shall you be more than a name to me
