Night dawned upon Nora as Shiro walked home from classes, on his way passing by the harbour as a daily routine. He stopped to take a break as he leaned gently against a wall looking outwards into the sea. "It was always beautiful.." His gaze soon shifted to the left as he heard a rukus....
"FIRE"
Son a cannon shot was heard, followed by a whizzing sound that soon carried a large explosion of rubble and dirt into the air.
Shiros brain racked slowly as his eyes slowly turned in horror at what had just been blown to bits; a small house that served as the towns orphanage. "Hey! Basatrds!" Running forward Shiro ran into the house as screams outside were heard, his eyes focused on the children as he scooped them all up one by one. 'Shit, this isnt good..'
After receiving all the children Shiro took them into the alley outback barely avoiding another cannon barrage, the orphanage beagn to tumble downwards at an alarming rate. Though they were safe he lead the children to a small shack in the forest before leaving them alone with a Nun. Turning Shro headed back into the city; which was now aflame.
The ship was now at dock and men were descending from it, easy to see the pirates were quite large in brute. The military that protected Nora fought back but were unmatched against axes vs. spears. Shiro watched as the villagers were escorted to safety before he pulled his broad sword away from his back and began a sprint into the heat of array.
The first Pirate to be struck down recieved a blow to the rear, the tip of Shiros' blade peircing into the poor mans spine and shattering it before plunging a little more and rupturing the lungs; causing it to burst as Shiro swung the blade outwards and cutting another pirate in two at the waist. Pushing past the two dead fools Shiro noticed a General trying to put out the fires rather than fight. "What are you doing?!" Shiro stopped breifly, his eyes shifted on the bulky figure of this general.
"Putting out the fire is a priority, we cant fight evenly with so many-" Shiro growled with disgust as he plunged his broadsword into the generals neck, beheading him. He now knew he'd become an outlaw of Nora, but he didn't care. He'd come back...
Turning to his left he dodged a slash to his right shoulder though ended up receiving an arrow to his left thigh instead. "Damnit!" Shiro growled yanking the arrow out and watching the blood ooze with ease, his face turned in a grimace as he flung his blade upwards by the handle, the slash slicing another pirate from his waist up sending him to his demise.
Though by this time the army had somehow succeeded in driving the pirates back to thier ship, Shiro could only panic when a group of soilders saw their leader dead and a few point to him. In a flash of movement Shiro bolted down the coast and toward a small ship as he was pursued, he gingerly sliced off the ropes and turned the boat into the sea, heading to the east as he aimed to nothingness.

A week later without food or any sustance Shiro arrived at a town, his weak body barely got up from slumber as he noticed the buildings without interest. Turning his head towards the right he saw a sign on the harbour; Welcome to Glasgow
