Description
"What are you doing up there?" asked a little voice that almost startled the hooded figure, hanging from a gargoyle.
She turned around, and saw surprised a little head sticking from a small window. An Ozcurilla, a grey orc child. The hooded figure -an Ozcura, grey orc herself- growled.
"Go back to sleep" she said. An Assassin of the Unmarked, known as well as the Vassals of the Void or the Empty Vessels of the City of the Wicked of Zaghäl, she was clad with ostentatious spider-silk clothes and an unmarked black mask, she was there on a mission, to take down somebody who angered enough somebody powerful enough to order that other person killed... but not angered enough, to send a proper dark elf assassin, as was considered more polite in the dark elven city of the Wicked.
"Mommy said it's banned to hang outside of the tower... can I go out now?" the Ozcurilla said, beginning to climb the window.
"No!" the assassin was kick to said. The City of the Wicked, built almost vertically was truly an impressive sight, but it wasn't neither the most practical to traverse and live within, neither was the safest for children it's towers, fancy balconies and ornate railings... and often children made a play to climb them, with tragic consequences. She may be an Unmarked Assassin, but she too was drilled by the city to stop any children trying to climb around, as not only ozcurillas grey orc slaves like herself or the child tried to do that, but the drowlings and elflings -the children of the masters- as well played the same dangerous game: and so, it was a generally accepted rule for anybody that If you see some little idiot climbing on the railings grab them and worry about relative status later.
"Behh!" bleated the Ozcurilla, wanting to climb out of the window. The assassin pushed the girl back inside.
"No! No! No! You, stay inside!"
"I want out!"
"No! Your Mommy is right. Climbing is banned! Go back to sleep, or I will tell her" the Unmarked Assassin said.
The ozcurilla pouted. "If you don't let me out, I will tell some suspicious Ozcura is hanging around the Gargoyles."
The Unmarked assassin sighed. Looked down the street, and didn't saw her target. Then she pushed the ozcurilla back inside, and got into the house herself, closing the window. "It's bed time now" she said, guiding the ozcurilla back to her bed. "No climbing around! And don't tell your mother what you saw!"
As the ozcurilla was back on her bed, the assassin was thinking that she would need a lookout gargoyle elsewhere now...

The Unmerked, Vassals of the Void, the Empty Vessels of the City of the Wicked of Zaghäl is a small faction of Aiers created by SerialLackey . These Orcs may be dressed in ostentatious spider-silk armor, with unmarked black masks, but their indentured company serves to the personal amusement of the Illuminated -- high-class Dark Elves wishing to settle scores with humans of far-off nations may look not further than this cult of killers. Just as savage as any other Orcs, the Vassals are trained to wreak havoc among the enemies of Zaghäl by murdering in the night. A pet project of certain influential War Witches, the Vassals are subordinates of the Illuminated. Stripped of family name, creed, and title, the Unmarked exist as shadows, often living their entire adult lives outside of Zaghäl, pillaging Free Alliance member states, murdering innocents, and performing blasphemous rituals to their demonic gods.
