Story
The Western Order
Background
With the fall of Mark Antony and Cleopatra, a small group of their followers knew the end of their time was neigh. That if they were to survive they must sail far away in search of a new place free to continue in the same life they’ve become accustomed to. The Rogyptians found such a place, an island of inhospitable climate and wild life. With priority on establishing a new city to call their own, years had passed and the Rogyptians had still just a vague understanding of their new home but determined they were to make it so.
The last hand had just been dealt to Mr.Green, trying his luck at the old saloon, prospecting hadn’t been too lucrative. Mr.Green thought he began to find his new line of work when just before he could raise the stakes a loud sound followed by screams erupted from outside. Instinctively Green and his upstanding gentlemen rose from their seats at the card table and reaching for their peacemakers. Screams from women and men rang out even louder now, briefly Green could make out the faces to those voices, ones he’s heard growing up in this town, his heart began to weigh heavy. The first one to reach the saloon door was one out of the 3 of Green’s childhood friends, but before he could swing it open three more loud shots ring off, the sound of wood cracking was the first thing Green heard, then the thud of his friends body hitting the ground. Bullet holes now decorate what were aged handcut and handcrafted doors along with the skull of Green's friend.
The moment of shock had passed as the remaining card players unloaded a few rounds back into the door, as they raced out the back. There was no time to mourn, the men had to get out and find out what was going on. In the distance they could see scattered remnants of their fellow towns folk fleeing towards the docks as homes and shops burned away in town, lighting up the night’s sky as if the sun had came early. Green and what remained of the small humble town set sailed escaping their demise and hoping to find a new land to flee too. Within time they had found such a secluded land, free of man’s touch. Blood, sweat, and tears fueled the rebirth of their small town, bringing back a stability the people have longed for, becoming the Gunslinger’s Order. After feeling more secure in their new land they ventured out to explore what they now claimed when a local cowboy spoted a massive tower in the distance, the future is uncertain, can there be peace, or will there be war…
