Snippet #1973712

Connor jumped off the caravan that had offered him a lift as the got to the outskirt of Lancaster. He bowed as did his bird crop. He continued into the city and saw that everyone was waking up. " Hm probably not the best time to talk to royalty but I have to get their before the foreign prince." he said to his crow who squawked in agreement. He found a group of doves and commanded one to come close to him. The white peace symbol hopped to Connor's feet, he pulled a scroll out and handed it to the small bird. " Take this to the prince or princess " he threw the bird with the scroll in it's feet as it headed towards the castle.

It explained that he the infamous blackbird would be coming in as extra protection for the prince and princess at this difficult time. It was signed by the king of Dresmark a richer country renowned for it's military. They had been at peace for most countries except for the advanced country. It had strange things but Dresmark stood their ground as it almost always did but if it got it's hand on Lancaster it would be over and Dresmark would be captured. Connor was informed to keep their prince away from Lancaster's Princess at all cost. He only hoped they weren't spoiled to the core so he wouldn't have to wait on them hand and foot , if they did well he always had a way with birds big and small.

Most of the time he could kill his targets. He like to get to know them first then kill them so it looks like they were doing something the always did but it would look like an accident. After he killed someone he always disappeared but made sure to leave a large black feather in their right hand. He made sure to always have one on hand and if he didn't he had Crop his crow to find one for him.

Connor continued walking towards the castle and saw some guards heading out towards the outskirts. He ignored them and went to the gates and snuck inside undetected as the gates closed. He saw the dove fly through the window. It flew around and saw the prince and tried to land on his shoulder only flying after him until after he got done talking to the guard he pecked him on the head and dropped the scroll then flew away out the window to rejoin his fellow doves.
