“ I do what I have to do, no more , no less” said the chief executioner known as northnd.

  Northnd had eyes that almost looked past Colt as if he was talking to someone else . Colt noticed how he had no remorse for the men he tallied about killing for stealing and sedition.

  “Every man I killed was guilt for something , even worse than the stealing was the lies about my authority. The lies against my religion . And the lies against my commitment.” Said northnd

  “What religion do you follow exactly?” Asked Colt

  “We follow the serpents fang . We belief in the divine gift of the dust storms like a holy presence . We also believe in the holy diamond . Four points of virtue for our belief. First is loyalty until death. Second is punishment for lies deemed sacrilege. Third is spreading the gospel of divine revenge and fourth is conversion of the young and unwilling. “ remarked northnd

  “What is your god or gods”? Said Colt

  “We believe that one day the six words shall come together and give all righteous followers anything that they want. The ones who will give us this power is the hand of fate. They send their messages through the serpent head who is our most esteemed leader. Their names are only known to the most devout of followers . Even I don’t know their names. But I’m willing to kill and convert all who reject their righteous palm.” Said the executioner

  “Sounds like you would do anything for your faith even murder a man in cold blood “ said Colt

  “I assure you, when we kill it is always very public” responded the executioner

  “So you know nothing about the dead butcher?” Asked Colt

  “I know that he went to the ravine near here to talk about trade but I don’t know the specifics.maybe their you will find him” said the executioner

  Colt thanked him for his cooperation and took an extra gun while no one was looking and set out for the ravine before his time ran out.
