Of Dreams and Nightmares


I tossed and turned endlessly last night dreaming first of gentle hands caressing me, holding me then suddenly of ghouls, and trolls chasing me reaching for me with thousands of hands as I ran on and on. I awoke this morning from that nightmare in a cold sweat.

A step outside and a quick dip in the ocean helped wash away the nights fear and I now sit in my new home with my morning brew, (a warm drink of special herbs) to reflect comfortably on yesterday's events.

Having reached my 34th season, I had spent most of the day training and gathering new spells. I returned home to study each spell and memorize it's incantations perfectly. Only one spell was left to be learned, so a dangerous trip to Iceclad with Siffo was quickly arranged.

Siffo and I had wandered around Iceclad quite lost for a while looking for the Gnomish igloos. We were on the docks when I spotted a lovely halfling Druid and asked her for directions. She quickly hopped up and began to lead me to my destination. It was then I noticed her silent companion. He was a formidable barbarian, who followed her protectively. It was obvious there was much affection between them. The image of those two was etched in my mind whispering to me long after Siffo and I departed Iceclad.

Siffo had designs on a sword located in The Befallen so that is where we went next. I had never been to this particular hellhole before and have no plans of ever returning. It seems the occupants are against anyone sitting down. After trudging around endlessly, I was surprised by Korg's arrival. I am not sure if he and Siffo had some sort of arrangement over this sword or what but it was most pleasant to have him join us. He was very kind to me and help cleared a few spots so I could sit and rest my weary feet. The chairs and benches in this place were merely there to taunt druids I think, for each time I tried to sit, the ghouls and skeletons would unmercilessly attack me.

Daxtor was talking with me over the winds and we made arrangements for our date at last. I had a gift to bring to him that was taken from The Befallen and I was so looking forward to a relaxing evening with a good friend. After much teasing from Daxtor I was able to discern that we were going to an island for a quiet encounter. My aching feet were reminding me how welcome a rest would be.

It was as if Korg was reading my mind for he promised to offer me a foot massage when we left befallen. That offer had me heading outdoors in short order. I think Siffo still wonders what the big rush to leave was all about.

I am shaking now as I think of the rest of the evening. I am so confused by my emotions, pleasure and fear co-mingled. I cannot write more of this for I can not put to words what I do not understand. I am resolved today that I will turn away from this confusion and fear. I will hunt in Everfrost with Siffo and Korg as promised, meet Daxtor for our island date, then I will distance myself for a while to continue my own battles both outward and inward. Perhaps in time I can find my own direction and allow my head to rule my heart. Perhaps tomorrow the dreams will not be followed by nightmares.

I cried myself to sleep last night. I cried for Korg, for a small child forever scarred, and I cried for myself.

After acquiring a very useful bag from the Archaeologist Ice Goblin with the help of Siffo and an old friend, I was in East Karana to make some trades with the local farmers. It was then I heard Korg's voice upon the wind. Something was terribly wrong, he sounded sad and withdrawn. I flew to his side to offer what comfort I could.

Korg's tale of horror witnessed and self-punishment for an imagined part in it tore at my heart. I tried to comfort him, reason with him, and even chastised him but to little avail. He is disheartened by what he sees as Zek's doing and his role in a viscious and evil act. I see nothing but the hands of Innoruk busily tearing at my beloved Korg.

I cried even as Korg told me his story and felt the pain of the brutally orphaned child. A child not unlike the child he once was. I could see in Korg's eyes that the pain from the loss of his own parents once buried deeply within his soul was now heavy again upon his breast. Like a mother would comfort her child, I held him to me.

There is a passion between Korg and I that has always been locked away. Now with a single kiss it was released and coursed through our entire beings. There was no confusion here just pure desire. I was wrong to have thought I could tame something so wild within me. I do not know what course this passion will take but I will no longer try to leash it.

Before I left Korg I did manage to make him smile and exacted his promise to meet me in Firiona. I know that some time relaxing by the sea will help mend his wounds. I pray he comes to me soon.

Tomorrow I will meet with Daxtor, the gentle cleric. My affection for him is very deep. I need to spend more time with him to know if we are to remain friends or if our paths lead further. I am so looking forward to our date, even now just thinking about it brings me joy.

I wonder what my heart will speak to me of after tomorrow. Is there passion for Daxtor or something more gentle and lasting? Will I be torn between the two of them or does my heart already belong to Korg?

I have stopped home this evening for just a few moments to do some bank and resupply some much needed drink. It seems the Gods are determined to taunt me. I was heading directly to the Overthere. I could find no further reason to avoid what I have been charged to do. It seemed that almost immediately I was lost in an area I have never been lost before. Then a desperate gnome required my assistance in retrieving her body. That took several ports to accomplish. Finally when once again set upon my path I was surprised by an encounter.

It was the beautiful druid halfling and her barbarian escort that I had seen only the day before in Velious. Her name was Glenna and her companion Kogar. I watched them from a distance as they worked in perfect synchronicity against the giants. My vision blurred as tears welled up in my eyes. Their harmony and joy in each other made my heart ache with longing. I remembered Korgs first giant slain with me by his side only steps from where these two now stood. I had to know if what I saw was indeed real.

I approached Glenna and begged her forgiveness for my intrusion. I asked her a most personal question, I asked her if Kogar were indeed her chosen. And she confirmed this to me. She told me that they were husband and wife. I had known this all along from the obvious love between them. Why I had to hear the words I do not know. I begged their pardon and took my leave quickly not wanting to intrude further.

I ran blindly to The Overthere, tears filling my eyes. Their happiness served to magnify my sorrow. I ran into the The Overthere not even pausing to mark this momentous occasion in my memory. In a single stride upon its soils I began my newly learned techniques of kiting. My failure was obvious and swift. I did not have the heart for something that required such perfect timing and concentration. I left shortly thereafter to join Korhil in some basic training.

The most of my time with Korhil was spent in much meditation and the constant image of Glenna and Kogar whispering to me over and over. "We are in love and married."

No Dreams


I fell into my bed last night totally exhausted, both emotionally and physically. My sleep was deep and heavy and I did not see the morning light but awoke closer to mid day.

I don't know why I did not join my friends in Velious last night but instead returned to the Overthere. I did not attempt any fancy kiting for Korhil had taught me well. I needed to improve my wisdom before seriously attempting such battle. Simple root and rot techniques laid these particular monstrosities to rest quite effectively.

I was constantly looking around for whatever it was Karana had sent me to find. There was nothing I could discern of any import. I could not believe it. All this time to get to this place and find nothing! What would Rivervale think of me? A failed Druid unable to complete a task given me by Karana. There was no point in delaying it, I knew all along I would fail. I had to report back and be done with this quest and Rivervale.

On my way, I stopped in East Karanas to gather a few silks for Siffo, when I saw Korg and Waid there on a similar mission for Waid. I was pleased to see Korg was wielding his sword again. Though he did not know it, it was his first step to healing. I did not want Korg to see me like this, defeated and miserable. I gave what few silks I had to Waid and ported myself to Misty.

I screamed in anguish at the rats and undead halflings, slaughtering them at every turn. I could not go to Rivervale this way. If I would not let Korg lay down his sword, how could I accept defeat so easily. I had to return to The Overthere, there had to be more to it. I would not let myself be defeated. I would not let Rivervale be defeated!

Today, I will go to Sabitha Lightheart and ask her to use her bard skills to send a message to Rivervale. I want my family to know that I am in the Overthere but have found nothing yet and that I will keep looking until I do. I will not give up!

I have not slept so peacefully since I was still at home in Rivervale.

I spoke with Sabitha yesterday and my message has been dispatched on the first ship. In a few days time, Rivervale will know that I am in the Overthere.

I was so excited preparing for my date, that I felt like a child at the Aquacade. I tried on various outfits and combinations of outfits, running outside to view each one in the water's reflection. So much time spent on the dusty trail and in battle, I did not know if I remembered how to make myself attractive. I bathed beneath the waterfall to remove any trace of miles of dust I constantly trudged through. From a tiny bottle of Firiona Rosewater, I sparingly dabbed behind my ears and along my neck. My hair was braided and rebraided three times before I was satisfied. There was naught else I could do. If he wanted a pampered lass from the village, he would have to go find one. This was as good as a battle weary halfling could look.

When I met with Daxtor, the compliments flowed to me. I felt I had chosen the right look, for Daxtor was almost awestruck. I loved him for that, my nervousness was gone instantly. He overwhelmed me with a dozen of the most beautiful flowers and the most incredible box of chocolates I have ever seen. It was obvious he had worked very hard to prepare everything. How could you not love one so romantic, so generous, so handsome?

We spoke and enjoyed each others company for some time. We kissed softly. We drank. We ate. We laughed. We became closer. There was one thing wrong though and I knew it. It was too late. Korg had already taken my heart and even though I saw nothing but challenge in such a relationship, I could not take it back. Why could I not be in love with Daxtor? We were perfect for each other. Our life would be so harmonious.

I told Daxtor of my dilemma and even then he was so sweet to me. His wish was only for my happiness. Even his reaction echoed in my head that he was the right man, that he was the one that would be a faithful companion, a perfect husband and a gentle lover but I could not deny my hunger for Korg, my passion and my desire. I was in love with Korg and had to accept it as it was.

When I left Daxtor I headed home to change and search for Korg. I need to tell him he was my chosen. I gated into Firiona and there he was on my very doorstep. (Literally too, there was no way he could fit through the tiny elven door.)

He stood uncomfortably in full battle gear, sword by his side, ready to defend or challenge. I looked into his eyes and saw that he was a very changed man. He seemed both stronger and gentler than before but more troubled than ever. I persuaded him to lay his battle gear aside and come take in the beauty of this place.

We sat on the dock facing the sea, feeling the ocean spray upon our faces. Then we strolled along the river admiring the moon as it set. We stood beside the roar of the waterfall and admired it's power. We travelled further on to my favorite fishing spot to peer into it's sparkling waters.

I saw many shadows drop from Korg's face in that short time. I knew my love was beginning to heal him. I was at peace with the world and all I must do and soon he would be too.

It has been several days since I have returned to Firiona to write in my diary and check with Sabitha on word from Rivervale. No reply has been received yet.

Each day seems to be rushing past me now. From battle to battle we fly, Korg and I. I am worried at how changed Korg is. He is so focused on me and nothing else. I should be pleased but somehow it disturbs me. I am worried that I have somehow weakened his resolve. I no longer see the battle lust in him, even in the fiercest fights. He fights as hard as ever, methodically swinging his huge sword but it seems an act detached from himself. Only rarely do I see emotion upon his face and then only when a monstrosity charges towards me.

Last night as we lay sleeping in Stonebrunt I awoke to the sound of Korg moaning. Sweat was on his brow and a grimace upon his face. Some sort of demons were grappling with him in the otherworld of dreams. This was a battle I had to let him fight alone. I watched over him, whispering into his ear that all would be well. He seemed to settle and his moaning ceased. I watched his face, once more relaxed. It was all I could do to prevent myself from wakening him with kisses.

I suppose I too am changed like Korg, I no longer fight with as much ferocity. I fight only to protect the others. I would as soon put my spell book aside and stay here in Firiona with Korg. Baking, fishing, reading, singing and raising a family.

Even as I write this I look out the window to see the ruins from former battles surrounding the harbour. I am lying to myself, I could no easier leave the battle then the others. There is no peaceful place in this land where we can turn to a pastoral life. Until true balance is restored, I am destined to continue the fight.

So much no longer matters to me. I only wish to be at Korg's side and to make him happy. What happens will happen, if something is found or not found in the Overthere then so be it. If Rivervale is disappointed with me, then so be it.

As long as Korg loves me, I am fulfilled.

A Scroll Arrives


Dear Quea Fingerwiggler:

We the council have consulted on your behalf. The Word has been spoken and much has been revealed.

You have honored your family and homeland with your deeds of selflessness in battle and journey. Your arrival in The Overthere marks this part of your journey fulfilled and heralds your coming of age.

The evil forces are gathering in power. They boldly come forth more readily each day. You must seek them out where they live. You must stem this tide from its place of power.

You have been chosen to become a battle druid in the service of Karana. Already those that have gathered round you are teaching you the battle skills you will need to gain dominion over our foes.

Grow ever stronger and prepare!

Signed,

The Rivervale Council

I was trembling with fear as I read the scroll. Then I became angry. The council writes to me and tells me practically nothing. I was to be a battle druid. What in Karana's green fields were they thinking? Surely they were joking. I did not have the strength nor the ability to damage a foe in such a way that would make me a battle anything.

Oh it is so frustrating. I know they are right. I have seen the evil growing, the attack on Rivervale, the changes in Misty. All speak of the horror to come if something is not done.

I am becoming stronger everyday! If Karana had spoken to me directly Himself, I would not have believed I could slay a giant, yet I can. Those that found me on the path have strengthened me with wisdom, weapons, armor and love.

I will become Karana's battle druid in time. I can if I merely focus His energy that flows through me.

It is strange that no word arrived from my family, only the council. I will journey to my mother to see if she can shed more light on this destiny.

There is nothing left in Rivervale for me now. They are gone. My family is now Korg and my companions on the road. I will not let them fall to the evil ones. No one else will be taken ever again. Not a one!

I return to gather my valuables and store them in the bank. Although I have hired the flat for a year, I do not plan to spend much time here. Seclusion and time spent in contemplation is too painful now. The ocean always calls me to reflect and I can no longer bear to do so.

I haven't told Korg or anyone of my grievous loss. I shed no tears. I only fight and stand steadfastly by my new family. There is no time now for remorse or guilt or shame. My heart cries out only for revenge.

For nearly a fortnight, I have been in Stonebrunt mountains slaying Pandas. They hold the key ingredient to a remedy required for a sick child. Korg speaks of a blade that will be his reward if the child is saved. I would do this for the saving of one child but I am pleased that better weaponry will come to those around me. The stronger and better armed we become, the more complete will be my revenge.

I am almost feverish in my enthusiasm for the panda slaying. I run great distances across mountains completely oblivious to my painfull falls just to pull a single panda to its slaughter. I can no longer sit by patiently meditating and healiing the others as I once did. Instead, I attack ferociously and defend with my own blood. Many animals run from us now in great fear, my spell of terror rarely failing. I will not allow the others be hurt.

Wherever we are, Korg and I make camp each night. If I think only of him when we lay down, I am able to sleep. He gives me the strength I need to face another day and invigorates me for the next battle. As though an elixir, I drink from his love.

I praise Karana that he has at least given me Korg. With him by my side I shall remain constant in my purpose.

A torn page from a journal is folded and placed between the pages of the diary. The page is faded and worn. It is smudged where tears fell upon it.

I returned to Rivervale to resupply for the long journey ahead. There I witnessed horrors I will not soon forget. The evil inkies were in town, luring guards one by one to their slaughter. I tried helplessly to stop them. There was little I could do, but Karana took this evil act and made something good come of it. Karana showed me the bravest ling I have ever seen.

It was a young rogue named Spiritscott. He saw my distress and attempted to aid me in my attempts to stop the inkies. He was so very brave and so very clever. He jumped up and down before their caster to blind her vision and prevent her from casting upon the guards. Several times he took her casted damage upon himself. I loved him for his selfless efforts and for standing at my side as I tried to persuade the inkies to leave. Eventually word got out to the guards of Rivervale of this brave young lings efforts and they came and ran the inkies out. I thanked that little ling and promised I would be there for him if ever he called for my assistance.

I left Rivervale with heavy heart that the inkies had grown so bold with none but the youngest lings left to defend our town. As I trudged out of town, I could hear the sounds of gobs off in the distance oozing out of the tunnel to Runny Eye. I had had enough, my anger at the inkies would be wreaked upon the gobs infiltrating Misty.
*****************************************

I have torn the page out of my candidate quest journal. I do not want the others to know what part I played in the death of my birth family. I could not hide my shame or horror from Korg any longer and I am sorry I laid this upon him. Karana forgive me.

None but Korg knows what else Spiritscott and I did that day. In our frustration, we sought to make the guards chase us to the thicket entrance so that they would see what the inkies were doing. We knew this was forbidden by the gods but we felt it was our only defense of Rivervale. Both Spiritscott and I were knocked unconscious immediately when we struck the Captain of the guards but still our act did serve to warn them and the evil infiltrators were driven out.

If I had known then what I know now, I would not have done that which the gods forbid. My punishment for this crime is too severe. The inkies frustrated at Rivervale had apparently run in rage through the farm houses in the thicket. None were spared. Not even my family. My parents were the only druids in the thicket and I can well imagine the resistance they would have given the inkies. I was told by Meeples that the inkies called their gods to finish off my parents and sister and brother. The horror is completed by the undead now in Misty Thicket. I shake now as I write this. They are my own family left to walk and serve as a reminder that none shall resist the evil ones. *Tears splash the page*

I myself have slayed those undead, not knowing and now I would do it again if it would serve to release them.

My remorse is so great. Had I left the inkies alone in Rivervale they would have fought only against the armed guards. My interference drove them to the fields where the innocent unarmed farmers were slaughtered at will. I drove them to the killing of my own family.

I will indeed be Karana's battle druid. There is naught else left for me to be. If I can destroy the evil one's from where they find power I will have exacted some revenge and perhaps some relief from this burden.

I did not mean to but I fear I have pulled Korg into this now by my telling. Forgive me Karana.

Quea unrolls a scroll and focuses on one line.
~You must stem this tide from its place of power ~

Many battles have been fought and won. I now stand at my 36th season. Seldom do we find death among our companions. We march victorious ever forward.

I have come home to mark upon my journal the historical event of last night. Many of us assisted the beautiful Jharin in her battle against the Grimlings. Titaisia now stands as a Captain in her army because of her excellent leadership against the Grimling camps!

It is not often that I have felt such pride for a friend and myself for the small hand I had in assisting. I love the Jharin as tho she were my own sister. I will never forget the beautiful love song she sang to Korg and I at Sister Island nor the commanding power she displayed as she organized and lead her troops against the Grimlings.

I am wondering now if this battle in the Grimling camps is what the council of Rivervale meant. Is this the place of power of the Grimlings? I wonder what such place is there for the Gnolls? the Inkies? the Orcs?

I have seen the King's room of the Frogloks, he must be slain and some very powerful gnolls have fallen to my sword in Runnyeye. I think in future I will fully concentrate on those that lead the evil ones. There is a powerful gnoll hidden inside Splitpaw that I will seek out for slaughter soon and a very powerful Orc holds a camp in the West Karanas that must fall.

It is not my charge to merely slaughter the wandering hordes of evil doers. I must stem the tide from its place of power and so shall I do. I pray that the others will assist me especially my beloved Korg.

Korg seems caught up in some mission of his own lately. It's purpose unclear to me. We have had no chance to discuss his goals or enjoy the warmth of each other's body. His waking hours and mine no longer coincide and when he usually joins me I am barely able to keep my eyes open and can only assist him in a few battles before making camp.

I must somehow change my waking hours. After this day is done, I will return here to rest for several days and then perhaps I will have the energy to stay up with my love when he is wakened. I do so miss the chance to be in his loving arms. I seem to grow weaker without his embrace each night.

Quea looks down on the sand, the wind has removed all traces of impressions that once marked it. She looks to the left and the imposing figure of Firiona. She hopes Firiona lights the way not only for her own champion but Quea's as well.

Sitting slowly down upon the sand, Quea smiles as she watches the sunset. The beach, it is more lovely now than she had remembered. The water shimmering in the pink glow of the setting sun and her thoughts filled with memories of another time.

This is the perfect place for her to enter into a deep, long meditation. She closes her eyes and slows her breathing and begins to enter a higher plane of understanding.

My meditation went well. I feel strength coursing through me and emotions set aside. My thoughts are clear and concise. I am ready now to battle the strongest foe.

I have not seen Korg for days and days. When I ask the others of him, they tell me of their last time battling with him but shed no light on how he is. I need to see his face to know his thoughts and that he is well. I pray to Karana that I will find him soon.

My possessions now include much improved armor and items. My wisdom has soared and there is little I can do now but grow in seasons to become ever more powerful against mine enemies. I am so looking forward to each and every battle.

I am in constant movement closer to the evil places of power. I rejoice in knowing that I am strong enough to begin to stem the evil tide.

Oh the gods do play with me so. I can imagine their laughter at this latest trick upon me. I wanted to know Korg's thoughts and now by the gods I do. I had no idea how horribly wrong this could be.

It was such joy to finally see him again and to feel the pleasure of his touch. I wish I had been content with that but I searched his soul for more. With my prodding he produced his journal for me to read. I did not read it as I should have, instead I used my magical powers of insight to devour the journals contents. (Insight allows one to feel what the writer was feeling at the time of the writing)

So much pain, sadness, anger, and fear flooded me from those pages. I tried to hide how shaken I was but Korg knew immediately that something was wrong. I apologized to him for not having read the journal the conventional way. I so loved Korg for having trusted me with the knowledge in his journals but I realized too late that I violated that trust by using insight. Korg had been hesitant to share his journal and when I explained about insight, I knew he regretted his sharing.

It is too late for what I did cannot be undone. I know much I should not know. Korg shared more than he intended and I fear he may feel vulnerable now. If that were the worst of it I would not be so pained for I could ease his fear in time and prove his trust in me but that is not the whole of the problem.

It started when we were in the arena practicing battle skills. As I playfully was battling with Korg I suddenly felt an overwhelming sense of distaste for the battle, hesitancy to strike. The feelings were not mine though, they came from outside of me. I ignored them and they washed away as quickly as they came. Several times later when the games were well underway, different emotions that seemed somehow removed from me would occasionally overwhelm me. At one point I became angry with Siffo for striking me in the games but in reality I was not angry with him at all. I spoke harshly to Siffo and then laughed it off in puzzlement not even knowing where or why the words had come.

After the games I went to aid Korg with a quest in Freeport. As we approached the city I was nearly frozen with fear. This was absurd for I have nothing to fear in Freeport and have never felt fear there ever before. I could not shake it and did not understand it. I think that now I know what it is. I am feeling Korg's emotions in waking life but somehow distorted and intensified. As soon as I left his side all the strange emotions disappeared. This must be tied to the insight cast and something is woefully amiss.

I wish that I could speak with my dear mother for she would know what has gone wrong with my casting or some way I that I could appease the gods to make this stop. I miss her so and all her wisdom now lost to me forever. The only loved one left to me is Korg and I will be approaching him with mixed emotions, joy and a fear of this horrible anomaly and what havoc it will wreak.

I am at a loss as to this ailment I have. If that is even what it is.

I joined Korg for a short time last night and everything seemed fine. The battle did not go well and Korg and his two comrades fell but I survived. Not long later we were at the very spot where the battle had been lost and we sat down. I felt suddenly very safe and comfortable and considered making camp right there. It was all I could do to restrain myself from camping on the spot and taking a long nap. I couldn't believe that in this place of danger with my own blood and that of the others still wet on the ground around me, I would feel safe!

My emotions and instincts are completely awry. I checked to see how Korg was feeling and he was relaxed at the time as he felt no immediate danger nearby but his guard was not completely down. Mine was!

I wonder what danger I will bring upon others if my emotions are so completely unchecked and inappropriate. Will I suddenly turn upon a friend in anger and slay them? Will I wander into extreme danger bringing my comrades to their demise? Will I embarass both Korg and I with inappropriate behavior in the presence of all?

I pray to Karana this madness stops before it is too late.

I am frantic now from this horrorible thing. When I awoke yesterday, I began gating from spot to spot in search of something yet I knew not what. Finally I met with Korg briefly but it was not him I searched for. I immediately felt the urge to gate yet again and made some excuse to him about shardwurms in Velious.

I continued gating over and over searching, for I know not what, until at last I lay exhausted upon the ground completely drained. In this weakened state I cried myself to sleep oblivious to the world or dangers around me.

Korg was questing for something in Qeynos and I fear now that his feelings are reaching me anywhere and everywhere in a more distorted configuration than ever.

I must find someone to help me with this. If I can control myself for any length of time I will seek for guidance from the others. Perhaps the high elves? Caladril may know of some cure or someone to turn to. If I remember correctly Brutin said he speaks with the gods! Maybe he will speak to them on my behalf if I beseech him? Oh dear Karana please send me help.

Tears wracked Quea's body and she fell asleep in a crumpled heap upon the ground, her diary lying next to her.

He saw her laying there upon the ground. He approached and then stood towering over her, blocking the moons light with an inky black shadow that fell across her body. He studied her for a moment and noted her breath marking the chill night air.

Something glistened in the moonlight outside the shadow he cast. A green light flickered serving to catch his attention. He reached down and picked up the open book, noting the shimmering green ink upon it before closing it and placing it within the folds of his dark black robe.

Beneath his hood he grinned evilly. His plan had worked so perfectly. The twisting of the spell had drawn her away from Korg and now the secrets held within the book were soon to be known.

Quea stirred and mumble as if fighting to awake. The shadow pressed down upon her darkening and blurring her image. She lay silent again her breath shallow and weak.

He turned away from her and disappeared in a cloud of acrid smoke.

He laid down the book on the dimly lit table and tapped on it with one scawny dirty finger. His long yellow fingernail marking the soft green leather cover as he tapped over and over while mulling some thought.

A smile crept slowly across his sullen face and the tapping stopped.

His booming voice resonated off the cold stone walls. "What interest is some lovesick halfling's writing to me?"

The informant spoke confidently, "Master it is not so much the writings but the weakness they reveal."

"Weakness? Do you not think I already know his weaknesses? I am disgusted by them."

The informant balked at this. "It is not his weakness but hers and through her, he will feel the thrust of your full revenge."

"Fine then slay her and be done with it." With that he began to turn away.

"I am sorry Master I have not explained myself. Killing her would wound him true, but I have devised something that will make her a source of constant agony to him. In doing so, he may even return to your fold and you will be victorious in the battle over him." The informant grinned evilly with full confidence in his own twisted plans.

"Well then, proceed and we shall see if the barbarian falls in line." He waved his hand in dismissal and turned once again toward the battlement overlooking the bloodied field. His interest lay in combat not connivery.
