It has been 2 weeks since Thade escaped from his imprisionment. He has been wondering the plains of Halloweenville for weeks. No water. No food. And hardly any sleep. He is on the brink of death itself. Stumbling back and forth, rambling to himself hysterically; he drops on the ground.
"Damnit.."
"Er...Come on Thade.. All those hours in the mine and you can't handle this... ha..hahah...hahahaha"
"hahahahaahahah-- ha- hahah- hahahah- hahahaha-"
Thade passes out.
He awakes in a hut in the plains. Although it seems hes moved out of the plains and into the desert, for, for miles around there was nothing but dust and wind. No hills, no mountains, no green, no water.
A man in a purple robe approached him with a leather flask of water, gave it to him, then removed his hood; revealing a withered man of what looked 60 years old. Bony, veiny, with eyes popping out of his head. This was Durdyn.
Durdyn: "Hrrrmmm.. I see that your awake."
*Smiles*
Durdyn: "We don't get very much people around here. he-hah-hehe, Well,
I don't get very much people around here. What is your name."
Thade: *gulp-gulp-gulp-gulp* "Who are you, what the hellk are you doing here?" *Raspy Voice*
Durdyn: "Well, you see my name is Durdyn, and I'm a Warlock. Been a warlock for 90 years. Comes with its perks....but people call ME CRAZY. Hee-ha-hee-ha-ha. The world is a crazy place, friend! All of em!!!"
Thade: "I see, Thank you for the water, and shelter; but I must be on my way.."
Durdyn: "Heehahaheehahehahahaha!!!!....and they called ME CRAZY!"
Durdyn: "You can't go out there, even in the condition your in, you need bed-rest, my friend. Oh! And by the way, when I found you I saw you were being robbed by some desert hobgoblins...little bastards.. took mostly everything but the axe...they were too weak to pick it up."
Thade looks down and sees that he is dressed in a robe similar to the one Durdyn is wearing.
Great...maybe I'll catch some of this guys psycho...Thade: "Where is my axe?!"
Durdyn: *Jumps* "Relax friend! It's over there in the corner." *Points to the corner of the room.*
Thade: "How do you get all your water and provisions out here? Why do you stay here...in this wasteland."
Durdyn: "Well...the world outcast me! Just like they did you. And....as for provisions...I'm a warlock.. Duh. I conjured all this water, and i conjure most of my food. Simple. The water was conjured from India, and the food is from.. well.. Scottland! hee ha ha hee he ha!"
Thade: "I see...I need out of here...and soon."
Durdyn: "I know, i know, i know, friend. But right now you need rest. Sleep, eat and drink; get better. I'll help you when its time. Relaaaxxx."
4 days later.
Durdyn: "Wake up! Wake up! Wake up! Its time!!!"
Thade: "Er...what...?"
Durdyn: "Word has it those people from the village you left are after you! They want you dead! And they already want me dead...sooo...lets get the outta here.. NOW!
Thade jumps up and gathers his belongings. Durdyn gets a elegantly bound box from the closet and opens it. Then pulls out a pair of Katar-Claws, and gives them to Thade.
Durdyn: "Take theese with you, they'll fend off anything that will hurt you in the desert... and... i've put a few enchantments on them myself. They'll ward off things you don't like. Now leave. Go northwest, to an encampment. Once you reach the jungle it will only be about 10 miles from there. Ask for a guy named Jerhim. Now GO. Go!!!! I'll meet you there, I'm taking an alternate route!
They both leave.
