The Sentinel of Cassendar: The High Captain

The Sentinel of Cassendar has stood strong for over two thousand years protecting the kingdom of Lanoxan and the royal family. An elite group of fighters and users of Mystics, the Sentinel is legendary for its strength, honor, and bravery. No members of the Sentinel are ever so revered as the men who have served as High Captain. A new High Captain has been chosen that has made many start to question the Sentinel’s future. The kingdom of Lanoxan is facing a tremulous time as outside forces threaten its people and royal family. Not only is the High Captain faced with these outside threats, but secrets also surround her as she tries to figure out the best way to serve her kingdom while protecting the honor of the Sentinel and those she loves.

They rode in the middle of the soldiers and jumped off their horses. He found himself momentarily transfixed as he watched them fight. The High Captain sent fire and wind in one direction, while Roderick covered her by slashing his sword at soldiers around them. She turned and took out a soldier with her sword while Roderick bent in just the right direction. At one point, Roderick placed his sword behind his back, and The High Captain took it. She stabbed two men behind her with her sword and Roderick’s. Roderick pushed out both his hands and sent some wind to blast a few soldiers back. The High Captain circled around Roderick, placing his sword back in his hand. They kept fighting, moving together as though they had everything planned. It was like some beautiful dance of destruction, as they took out more soldiers than Galen would think possible for just two people.
