Augustus Karl Hamelin's Story

Augustus Hamelin

Augustus woke up later than usual:Ultimately he had many missions to execute and jobs to accomplish.
When he used to live far from the Civilization he used to wake up around 3.00 am or 4.00 to do his daily routine that comprhends:Hunting,gathering materials and work with his weapon.
He stood up from his little bed and looked around his room:surely it wasn't the best but enough for a man to survive.
The house is made of mainly 4 rooms:The biggest was the guest room,even if he wondered why he bought an house with such guests room when he will never have guests...
His second biggest room was his bedroom.He says that it is the greatest room made by himself because originally the house had only 3 rooms and the bed room was part of the guest room.
He has got a kitchen where he mainly use it to maintain food and for cooking.
The last room was obviously the bathroom,poor but enough for him.

The first thing he did is to visit the Bathroom.He looked himself to the Mirror...what he saw was a man with long black hair and his face covered by a short beard.
Hmmmm.....First symbols of New age Eh? He thinked while taking a dagger from his nearby backpack.

After he cleaned his face and cutted his hair he looked again in a mirror:Another man was standing there.
Since he left the forests he promised to himself to focus on what was lost: His life...during his exile he thinked how stupid was to leave a Society just for a failure or two.
He got dressed and went out to explore how this town changed since he left it:the first thing he noticed was a great "Castle" with a Tower that guards the place.
The Tower where She lives...Augustus said to himself while walking around wearing his normal clothes:Black trousers,and a white jacket.
Even with this "Revolutionary style" Augustus still wears his hat to remind to the others his habits.
Augustus had the Luck to see the little goddess retiring from the balcony.He left a shadow of a smile:After years he had enough courage to let a smile.

The next part he visited of the town were the Training grounds,where he practiced when he was at a young age.
He left a look on the practicing fighters:He doesn't know if he should enter and aid the educators or leave them.
When he noticed that a boy couldn't string his bow he decided just to aid him a little.
With some misses and too-less-attention finally the boy managed to strike the center of the range.
When he made it Augustus wasn't there anymore: He went out to explore more of the town.

The last building he had to visit was the Great Castle:He walked to the central town and looked at the Massive building.
To enter....or not to enter....

"Well....I say why not?"Augustus was already walking around the huge structure trying to find another entrance:Sometimes his curiosity breaks his limits and most of the time it brings nothing but problems.
He reached the secondary door.He opened it and entered inside like drinking a glass of water...finally he was inside what he never saw.

He walked around like a child,now watching this and now looking inside the rooms.For now he didn't met anybody that asked him who he was or what he was doing.
He explored all the basements and wondered what lies upstairs...again Augustus's curiosity was far greater than a monkey's:He climbed the stairs and met one of the housekeeper (if the building can be called 'house').She looked at Augustus with a little of wonder before reaching the floor.
Augustus simply looked at her with the tail of his eye:was it the end of the explorations...or just the beginning?
Anyway Augustus continued to look around himself admiring the painting and vases,sometimes leaving some silent "Oh","That's pretty" or even "I wonder where they found these things".
He walked,walked and reached a room with wide door: It was the Kitchen.
Augustus left a look from the outside to see how huge it was....It could feed all an army in a matter of Hours.
Continuing his journey Augustus noticed that the Mansion had over 100 rooms.
As last thing he decided to climb till the tower he saw the "Princess".
It was a little higher from Augustus's position: just three or four stairs above.
He looked around:"Surely this place is a real Labyrinth...Who doesn't know this place would get lost....Right...where am I?"He spoke to himself:he liked to tell to himself what he was thinking as a way to better organize his ideas.
Finally he saw a door open and the back of a Pink-haired girl.
He estimated her age:She was around 20 not more than 22:Her hairs were long,well-cared and their color were of a soft pink
Augustus could hear part of their dialogue...However she seems to be very abjourned and istinctively Augustus thought that his cover blew up...

"Actually....removing my presence!"Augustus thought while walking back to the stairs.
It was a dangerous visit,but what he saw today removed his doubts.
He explored all the town,memorized what changed and visited the "Goddess's castle":it was a massive building,finely decorated and with a lot of house keepers,workers and alot of Services.
"I wonder if there are any Skulled here"Augustus said to himself...since he was a child it was an habit to "buy" Skulled slaves leaving the hard work for them and jobs that nor the Humans and the Crossed wants to do.
After he climbed down all the stairs he exited from where he entered and looked at a Tower-clock:it was around two o'clock.At this time Augustus would have to do something else.
"Variation of the Daily program"He said while entering in a nearby Cafè shop and ordered a cup of tea and some assorted biscuits.
When he took place he took off his hat and bought some Newspaper from a News agent shop included in the Cafè.
When he was reading his tea arrived.He rised his hand and said a quick "Thank you".
After he drakn his tea and paid he returned to the street life: he walked searching for the Accademy of Defense.
He was intented to join the army again.
When he entered he took off his hat and requested the recruitment.
"Name?"A squeaky voice came from the desk
"Augusuts Karl Hamelin"Augustus answered with a low voice
"Augustus what!?"the voice replied
"Augustus Karl Hamelin"Augustus highlighted his second name and surname."Back from the Death Realm eh?Do you still remember how to use a weapon!?"The voice said joking and writing his name on paper.
As answer Augustus took a dagger from his pockets:"No need to ask...."he smiled while walking to the exit.
"He's more random since last time....THE NEXT!?"Said the tiny man from the desk.
Augustus now recovered a title.
He returned home and took a rest from the walk and the intense life of the city.
