Marwan Adventurer

[Liianice]

Why do the elders fear the future when youth embraces tomorrow with open arms?

When does our own mortality destroy that zest for life?

The elders of Marwan fear the future, and they reject all change! The atmosphere in a world that robs the youth of life and happiness.

I believe they are the harbingers of our own doom. The harbingers and the deliverers!

I will not fall prey to their machinations that pluck all joy from life!

Cascata and I will slip away under the cover of the new moon, and be gone from Marwan for good!

-------------------

Cascata has carried me for many days now. I had known Marwan was remote, but so far we have not seen so much as a trader's caravan. And then the fog rolled in around the surroundings mountain peaks, enveloping us into a silent cocoon of fuzzy white.

I reined Cascata, there was no point in going further. We could plunge over a cliff and find our deaths in this fog.

We settled against a large tree, with a bed of pine needles to cushion the rocky ground to wait for morning light. Then the sun would melt away this veil to our sight.

--------------------

For three days we were left in that acursed fog, and I began to fret. Would we ever see the sun? Had we blundered into a sorcerers lair? But on the third day the morning dawned bright and clear - and full of people and traffic!

Where were we? The had not been here before the fog!

The road that had appeared in the fog led into a town of many people. Looking at Cascata, we moved toward the city that I soon learned was called RhyDin.

This place I’ve landed is just full of surprises. The fighting and dueling and magic is great fun. Though, truth to tell, I wish they had wards in Fists! I’ve got bruises and pain in places I didn’t know I had!

There this weird elf in fists last night. I call him weird because I’ve never seen an elf with lizard or snake’s eyes. It gives him a very strange appearance.

But then, the woman he is seeing can be a trifle unusual too! Those articulated spikes are something out of a very bad dream!
