The Conquerors 1.0c |
-+- Green Rider -+-
The prairie blows the grasses
And whips the horse’s mane.
They travel, horse and rider,
Through the sea of amber grain
Hills roll by, and clouds pass
But steady are the horse’s hooves
Upon the wind blown grass
As they travel, horse and rider
There is no trail that they follow
No path that can be seen
There they travel, horse and rider
Upon the endless blowing green
Story
On his long journey home from school after a fight which will surely lead to his expulsion, Kragan G'ladheon ponders his future as he trudges through the immense forest called Green Cloak. But his thoughts are interrupted by the clattering of hooves as a galloping horse bursts from the woods, the rider slumped over his mount's neck, impaled by two black-shafted arrows. As the young man lies dying on the road, he tells Kragan that he is a Green Rider, one of the legendary messengers of the king, and that he bears a "life and death" message for King Zachary. He begs Kragan to carry his message, warning his not to read it, and when Kragan reluctantly agrees, he makes Kragan swear on his sword to complete the mission "for love of country." As he bestows upon Kragan the golden winged-horse brooch which is the symbol of his office, he whispers on his dying breath, "Beware the shadow man..."
Kragan's promise changes his life forever. Pursued by unknown assassins, following a path only his horse seems to know, and accompanied by the silent specter of the original messenger, he himself becomes a legendary Green Rider. Caught up in a world of deadly danger and complex magic, compelled by forces he cannot understand, Kragan is hounded by dark beings bent on seeing that the message, and its reluctant carrier, never reach their destination.

Great cutscene mate. I only found one tiny problem to this fantastic cutscene. The woman running away with her baby out of the house goes all the way round into grass1. Is she supposed to go through the nice eye-candy full part? I would expect so because you have to wait quite a while for her to get there? Not trying to bring you down, just a minor thing. Its the second best cutscene I've seen so far. |
