==== The Goblin Attack: ====
Oathday, Tember 26, 1997 A.E. dawned like any other day at the Walker Ranch in the tranquil embrace of Summer Springs. The air carried the promise of a new morning, painted with the hues of anticipation and serenity. But fate, often unpredictable and capricious, had woven the threads of destiny in a manner that would forever alter the fabric of Shannon Elizabeth Walker's life. 
As the first rays of sunlight kissed the rolling hills surrounding the ranch, Shannon stirred from her slumber, greeted by the familiar symphony of nature's awakening. The rhythmic routine of morning chores awaited, a ballet of responsibility that Shannon had danced since her earliest memories. Yet, on this particular morning, the harmony would be disrupted by a dissonant note of darkness.
Stepping into the crisp morning air, Shannon's eyes fell upon her father, a steadfast figure surveying goblin tracks with a furrowed brow. The signs were clear—a swift and uninvited visit from the enigmatic creatures had left their mark. Peaches, a beloved member of the ranch and an embodiment of freedom, had been stolen from their midst.
Bryan Walker, his demeanor a mix of concern and determination, shared the grim news with Shannon.

The burden of the unknown loomed over Shannon, but her father's words held a plea to shield her innocence from the shadows that threatened to encroach.

The General Store welcomed her with its scent of dried goods and the friendly smile of the storekeeper, her interactions a dance of familiarity. 
With supplies in hand, Shannon's journey led her to Barnwell's Seafood, a place where the sea's bounty mingled with the heartbeats of the land. As she placed an order for the next day's feast, her attention was unexpectedly drawn to the interior of the eatery. Three figures, strangers in this close-knit community, stood within its walls, each possessing an aura that set them apart.
Among them was a female knight named Amy Bedford, a sentinel of strength and resolve. Her presence was a testament to valor, her armor bearing the marks of battles fought and a determination that mirrored the resilience of the town itself. Observing from a distance, Shannon couldn't help but sense the weight of responsibility that the knight bore, her vigilant gaze an emblem of guardianship.
As fate would have it, Shannon's path intersected with these enigmatic newcomers in a most unexpected manner.

With newfound clarity, Sandor's determination solidified. He recognized the grave danger that Shannon and their unborn child faced in the clutches of his father's nefarious web. The Considine mob's shadow loomed large, threatening to engulf them in a storm of darkness and despair.
In a selfless act of love and sacrifice, Sandor made the agonizing decision to shield Shannon and their child from the horrors that awaited them. He withdrew from Anna, severing the ties that had bound them, and embarked on a treacherous path to protect the woman who held his heart.
Sandor's journey was one of redemption and self-discovery, a quest to defy the shackles of his past and forge a future of love, unity, and hope. His path would be fraught with challenges and dangers, but his unwavering determination and the cosmic forces that guided him would serve as his guiding light.
