It was a little past noon as Alder scaled the back walls of the compound where his target had holed up in the hopes of escaping the cold grasp of death. Clearly it was going to fail with him on the case. Alder didn’t know what this guy had done to warrant death but he assumed it was a good reason otherwise why send him out there.

Once he got to the top of the wall he hung on to it just out of view to see if and where there were any guards up top. He closed his eyes for a moment to activate his second sight. He then opened them again to see where the guards where through the walls. He counted five only two of which were in his way to get to where he needed to go. Those would be the only two to die for now.

Alder then closed his eyes again deactivating his second sight. Then he pulled himself up on top of the wall as quietly but skillfully killed both of the guards without a sound being made with his hidden blades. They never stood a chance and none of the other guards were alerted to his presence there.

With practiced skill he stealthfully made his way to the roof of the main building in the compound without alerting anyone to his presence. He then looked through the skylight with his second sight to find his target who was right under the skylight where he could see him without his sight.

After lining everything up he jumped through the skylight and landed right on top of him sinking his hidden blade right through his throat. He was dead before either of them hit the ground. “Rest in peace,” Alder said closing the dead man’s eyes with one hand while the other threw two knifes into the chests of the shocked guard in the room.

He then hit the ground running making his way back out of the compound no one knowing that he had ever been there other than the five dead bodies he had left behind.
