Prologue - The Awakening

In a cave somewhere in a mountain range was a cave. In this cave, near the entrance, there were ten men in high quality leather armor sitting around campfires and laughing loudly. In the rear of this cave was a cage. In this cage was a dark half-elf woman with little to no clothes who seems like she was beaten up badly, with blood running down her out of a open wound on her forehead.

“Can't we just have a little fun with this bitch? I mean we already beat her half to death. She's already damaged so that wouldn't matter, would it?” asked one of the man. The largest of them, whose right half of his face was burned badly, slapped him across the face and answered “What are you talking about you fucking dimwit? We punished her for screaming. Our employer tasked us to find him an exotic sex-slave. How can you even consider stealing the joy of popping the cherry from him?”

“I'm sorry boss but maybe if we use her other....” That was the last thing this man ever spoke because in this moment the tip of a sword protruded out of his back. “You imbecile, you are a disgrace. I shouldn't have let you into our group in the first place. To even consider damaging the product... And to all of you. Consider this a warning. I'm not playing around!”

With this he retracted the sword and cleaned it with a cloth which he threw into the fire afterwards. “Hey Walo. Throw him out of the cave before he starts to smell. And clean up this blood as well.” “Yes Boss.” With this another of the man came and dragged the dead body out of the cave.

While all this occurred, behind a secret door deeper in the cave, there was a room with a cherry wood coffin inside. And in this coffin was a being that once again opened his eyes to this world after a long period of sleep.

If you spot this tale on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

Slowly the top of the coffin was opened and a mummified hand was shown. When the coffin was fully opened one could see a fully mummified man lying inside. He was wearing the finest of clothing even a king would turn green with envy. But that wasn't the only thing that stood out about the mummified man. The second thing was that he had completely white hair that would reach his waist if he were standing. And the last thing that was also the most outstanding about the mummy was that it was moving.

Slowly but steadily he sat up and placed one hand at the rim of the coffin. After this he opened his former closed eyes. If someone were to see these eyes in this moment they would say that they were unique without question. Nobody in this world had ever heard of someone with blood red eyes. After this short moment the mummy closed his eyes and he looked like he inhaled a deep breath and a sort of a grin could be seen on his face.

Again he opened his eyes and took a step out of the coffin. Now fully standing one could see that he was not particularly tall. Only 1,8 m. He was wearing black pants and shoes, a black jacket with a white undershirt and a white jabot. His body though dried out like a prune. Because of this his bodily features were impossible to detect.

After adjusting his clothes (not that it would change anything. I mean he is still ugly as fuck. I mean have you ever seen a mummy? xD) he went towards a wall and starts going alongside it. After three steps he stopped and and pressed on a spot that seemed like it was some kind of ore that was in this stonewall. And with a deep rumbling sound a 2x2 m square opened in the wall. After the mummy made his way out of the room the wall closed with another rumbling sound.
