"Don't stop indeed" I murmur as I survey my new surroundings, looking for any sign of a familiar landmark in the glare of the afternoon sun.
"for the record Uji-san, Where EXACTLY are we?"

" No thank you, good sir, the sound of good wholesome food being prepared is truly a blessing for one such as I, who has suffered so much." and after a quick drink, seemingly to wet my throat, but in actuallity I scan the gathered people once more " my story is not a tale of happiness, but of loss and sadness. Truly the spirits of plague and poverty have taken interest in me. One of my employ should not be Troubled as I have, I am just so hungry, I was lucky to be able to pass within this establishment, a fine sight it would have been, if I had fainted outside your door, imagine what business would have been like then!"

"well, i certainly have had bette- Whoa"
the change was instantanious, the sound, the smells. the night as bright as day and i could hear a strange thumping and a subtle whisper. now the shadows were truly my playground.
"well, you don't see that everyday." power coursed through my veins, nothing could hide from me!"

upon seeing the runtish boy hobble up to the counter with my food I reach out and grab it from his trembling hands, " you can take the roll lad" and with that I wolf down half of the simple stew.
Satisfied with the meal I look up and see the bartender talking with a rather boorish looking man, I quickly notice him to be a spellshaper, and with a quick sniff of contempt I finish my meal. " holding the bowl up I call to the keeper, "ahh, now thats a meal to be proud of, now, you were wanting to her of my travels then? It is good to be back amongst civilized people. Let you first know that I am a Loremaster, I have travelled far and wide across this continent, I have even travelled past the Far Seas, strange folk out that way. but if you'd rather speak with your, hmmm, friend over there, I can hold my tongue"

Even in the deep darkness the peddler's torment was obvious, even without my curse (or was it a blessing?) I could see his agony. I would love to meet his brother, a truly powerful man he must be.
With my darksight I was able to see my companions spread around the small cavern, though none truly appeared asleep.
I watched the boy's laboured breathing and caught the reflection of my ghastly glowing eyes in his own open, tear filled ones, no conciousness behind them, the sleeping draught still worked.
The knight and the druid seemed the closest to sleep, sitting quietly withdrawn to themselves, eyes closed. Did they too feel the evil gaze that watched over us?
I was slightly disapointed with the druid's apperant thought that we did not need to be informed that we had company still in the cave, but at least she (for it was a she) would guard the back door.
with a chuckle I curl up on my knees and slip into a restful state, my keen senses attuned to the darkness around me, my domain.

" My seat is fine, but he may listen, in fact as I am well trained in the verse I can aid you in gaining customers, I have been told that my stories have the power to transport you to far away places, as is my job as loremaster. but i would not presume to tell you how to run your business, but I can guarentee that I could fill this hall to the breaches, I am called Lolith, a name my recently lost master gave to me, she said it was of an elven origin, but it hasn't brought me any luck." I turn from the bar and say to the gathered, " what say you? would you as well like to hear my tales? I guarantee a pleasant time"

Looking first to the hand proferred, then to the mage himself I slowly shake my head " thanks but no thanks, Rodderick" I turn to look at the gathering, I walk into the crowd to the nearest table and take the grubby lantern off the table at place it on top of my recently vacated stool, I then turn back to the people and I do a neat backflip up on top of the bar and to the bartender I say " if i may?"

"a bear hmm, he would not mind our presence for a night? maybe longer?"
I fill up all of my empty flasks with the water then wash the gore off of my chest arms, and face.
" how far is it from here? we can carry the boy there correct?"
I then notice the foolish merchant sitting, as though in a classroom, waving a scrap of paper at me, I thought it best to humor the man.
"Thank you Druid, you have been most kind, we need to gather the attention of the warrior, he seems to have strayed off. excuse me a moment."
I walk calmly to the fool and crouch beside him, snatching the scrap from his outstretched hand
"now what do you have for me? hmmm, ahhh. This is good, forgive my previous disposition towards you Laviler, you seem to have your wits about you. I had guessed there was poison involved, but this other information is very useful."
I reach into my cloak and hand him the vials of body parts I had taken from the creature
"If what you say is true, you should guard these with your life. Are you ready to move? excellent, we depart soon."
And with that I stand up, redon my shirt and cloak and proceed back to the boy who seemed to be sturggling with conciousness.

" good folk, I am Lolith, traveller and loremaster extrordinare!" a flourish of my multihued cloak " I have travelled across this fair country, learning and sharing the tales handed down from the gods themselves! truly no man can match my knowledge of the old masters, that fated race, now departed across the lake! but of all the tales, of all the stories I have, none truly can compare to my on trials, I am not a hero, but I have faced horrors no mere mortal should have to." I reach into my cloak and take out three of my knives and begin to juggle them while still facing the crowd
" and of the gods! how they see to torture me!" a fourth knife joins the others " ohh, how I pray! to the righteous Phaligne, the pious Ellitre, even the beautiful Farouglin! none to hear my plight, Simic, the trickster, Tarl, the strong
or even my matron, Kelepsi, the shining! daughter of truth and knowlege! the dark lords too, give me no sign. I am caught-" I grab one knife and balance another on the point, the next on the pommel of the second, and the fourth upon the pommel of the third for a count of three, then begin juggling them again.
" Know you that I am an orphan, a child unloved by the world" I slowly turn to face away from the eagerly listening crowd. a normal childhood, but when I was but a wee lad they just up and," I snatch the blades out of the air where the watchers can't see, deposit them in my cloak again and turn back to face the crowd with another flourish. "Vanished! leaving me with nothing, no one to comfort me. how cruel a thing! imagine, a child no more than seven, crying, lost in this open world, a quiet home, no longer! I walked, with nothing to my name but a small blanket, from Colmsville, for three years, oh how I walked, begging until I reached the smaal town of whisper, where I had my one respite, " I throw a pinch of powder into the lantern to change the colour to light green "a shimmer of joy in my otherwise dismal existence. A beautiful woman, truly a descendant of the worthy themselves! Meline, my teacher, my comforter, and my friend." I begin to walk down the bar, dancing and skipping " a loremaster, like myself, she taught me all that I know now. we travelled together everywhere, to all points of the map, even far east, across the lake of mist, to see the strange sights, men who walk only upon thier hands "
I stop walking, do a backflip to land on my hands and walk back to my lantern and stand up again. " winds, that could blow a man down the street!" i step back to teeter on the edge of the counter. " but kindness, unlike some folk in this world. upon our return, we wintered in Rockcharge city, home of the delvers, mighty men who craft great works from mere stone."
i get back into the middle of the bar and crouch to look everyone in the eyes, pointing around the room as I look, pointedly not looking at Rod "but as well as it is, there are some that seek only to cause harm, all kindness is invaritably repaid with unkindness. in the deep snows, my master and I spent time in a tavern, entertaining the miners. But one of the populace, a human was unpleased with our demeanor, we never harmed a soul, and we were some of the few the great dwarves welcomed, a stoic and surly people, hearts of gold. but the woman, Talien, a hurtful and vile woman, beautiful, if but for a scar on the back of her hand, thought only of destroying what little happiness I had achieved."
from my crouch I toss some powder into the flame to make it a dark red and do another backflip to lad behind the bar with only my eyes looking along it to my listeners " she caused a riot, a band of bloodseekers to rise from our new friends, she falsely accused us of degrading the great elven image, she labelled us blasphemers! In cold blood she killed my teacher, slaughtered her infront of me." I do a handspring up on top of the bar and land litting with the lamp between my legs, dangling down, a pinch of powder to change the colour to a shimmering dark blue.
"again! I was alone again! the one person I loved, taken from me! surely-" I my elbows on my knees and rest my head on my hands, as though weeping, " certainly, that woman, that poor, cruel woman was jealous, she had no friend as close as I did, she had no skill as my sweet Meline! I was captured, and for one whole week, i was tortured by her and her cronies, cruel and vile people, and no help did I recieve! the dwarves, whom we had entertained, and grown so close in such a short time,they did not question the murder, did not question my disapearance" I look up to the crowd " surely it is suspicious? it is not easy to leave the mines in the deep snows, but leave I did!" I jump up onto the bar and raise my hands to the roof " finally, after much pain, I escaped my bondage, with the aid of a small man, a halfling, he gave me this glorious cloak" flourish" and a few supplies, he freed me! I fled, deep into the snows, without a thing to my name, dessed only in my what I wear, deeper into the falling snow, living off bark and snow, freezing, amazing it was that i made it, to come north, rather than south, for beyond the mountains lies a death worse than any other.
I rushed, through the blizzard, hoping against hope, that I could escape, i know not if that creature of hate still follows me. since this winter, i have travelled here, poor and friendless, telling my stories for a crust and mayhaps a bed in the stable, nothing I had, to trade, or barter, turned away from most as I was deemed a vagrant. until I came here, the first true city I have seen in ages, it is certainly fine that you have recieved me with kindness, instead of swords. i thank you for hearing my tale, It has been good to tell it to someone who truly cares" and with a bow I tumble head first, off the counter, over the lamp simutaniously tossing some powder to make it burn fiercely white, place it on the ground and sit back in my stool.

"do not worry hag, you won't die quickly, if at all. why the boy? surely anyone of us could be a meal, take the cripple" I say this with a gesture to the injured paladin " And of what do you claim your heritage? surely you do not defile the host of elves with your presence?"
Looking for the first time at her face I am overcome with shock and fear, a sensation so strange to me.
"excuse me nosferatu, i did not truly grasp the situation, I should have known better, my humble apologies, I will do what I can to help you, but. you must answer our questions correctly. understand?"
With that I slowly back away, bowing once and never taking my eyes off her.

The night had been spent easily enough, I have always been hard to find, and near impossible to notice when i don't want to be. I had sat in the old well, letting the water hide my scent from the beasts that would seek to harm me, the deep shaft and the dark water did the rest, My natural boyancy helping me to catch some sleep as I hung inside my cloak, snagged above the water.
In the morning I had no trouble climbing the slick, cobbled walls with my stiff limbs and when I was just below the lip I slowly brought my small mirror over the top, so that I could see without being seen.
I had watched as the runty boy from the inn had walked from house to house, gathering a small bundle of articles "amature" I murmered to myself. I was just about to follow him and see what he had gathered when I heard a clink of metal. The boy had ducked like a scared phesant when he too caught sight of the armored lad striding self importantly throught the empty town, steriotypical sword at the ready.
"damn, bounty hunter. why do I never get a break?" I climbed out of the well and stealthily approached the two boys as they talked, knives at the ready.

"hmpf, your a curious old fart, aren't you? well I suppose I could tell you of my travels, but unfortunately I have been long on the road and I am quite famished, and I fear this beer will not suffice, doyou not know that it can be quite dangerous to speak of daring deeds and near escapes on an empty stomach, surely it would not bode well should I faint from over-exerting myself" and with a quick nudge to the bartender I turn back to my beer

I stand awhile as if in thought, but my desires had already been met, a meat shield and a booty boy, what else could I desire? they seem to be good chaps, this will work. I continue on past the two and call back "so be it, but I do not have time to wait, we humans are now prey and to draw attention to our location would be folly, follow of your own accord Sir Badtouch, but remember, I Do not take kindly to failures. Your will be joining us to boy? lets go then."
With that I break into the trees, always searching for trouble, I like trouble.

"Hmmm ahhh, an interesting technique, I must get the recipe" I say to the old man that had seemingly twisted time and space to his whim.
"Does this mean that you'll be leaving us? your help was, well, apreciated to say the least. i wouldn't want to keep you from your, ahhh, hermitous duties."

Returning from my habitual position as scout I find my companions tromping across the open fields we have taken, instead of the much used road. With a sigh I say "your bulk rattles too much Sir Badtouch, it would be wiser for you to keep it down, a blind onelegged thorn deamon would have no trouble finding you." seeing that my slight reference to the beasts from the town startle the boy I turn on him.
"and you boy, how out of shape you are! you blow wind like Nistir, the North! you two are impossible, I would be sorely disapointed if you were to draw unwanted attention to me."
I crouch down and clear a patch of earth and directing thier attentions to the rudimentary map I create.
"now then, if you ignorant lot can get this through your thick skulls, pay attention, it may save your life. I have chosen this path for one excellent reason, up ahead lies the northmost tip of the Darkwoods, this area is surrounded with many myths and legend, it may be one of the most dangerous places on this plane."
I pause to draw our location and our surroundings on the ground.
"you are lucky however that I know the secret of the passage, we must travel only during the day, and cause no harm to the forest or its residents. You must follow me in all that I do, and for the love of Simic be quiet! No whining, no clinking no weezing and absolutely no talking! hand signals will be used. Questions? no? Good, I want to be in the fortest before midday, it won't take long to get through. And mind yourselves, we are being watched, two parties."
and with that I stand up, scratch out the drawing thouroughly and double pace it towards the trees.

"oh, great, were somewhere far away from where we started, thank you for that information. with the sun setting i think we can get another hmmm, 7 miles in before we hit dark, i think we should make the most of it"
I look at the motley crew surrounding me, they all seem worn out from the days adventure, or maybe i just don't care
"badtouch? you got lead, we have made excellent time so we shouldn't have to hide our presence anymore, the peddler can take second, boy? you stay close to the old guy and I'll follow up, maintain your intervals and stay ready, we aren't out of this yet. well? lets go!"

The branches of the forest in front of us were so tight knit that the morning sun had trouble penetrating them, the whole atmosphere gave off an aura of gloom, to the untrained eye. To me it was beautiful.
Stopping just outside the edge of the grove I turn once more to my companions, good company, if a little useless. I whisper to them in a conspirational tone, " remember what I said, follow me, stay in sight of each other. I have lead, boy in the middle and sir Badtouch has the vaunted position of Vanguard. be respectful, The watchers are not favorable towards human presence. Now come. And put some dirt on that shirt if you want to live."
And with that I pull up my hood so that my cloak covered my entire body, I walked confidently into the forest, the shifting colors soon hiding me from sight.
"Hurry."

iy was strange to see the merchant suddenly burst up and run off into the horizon, but I only paid it half a mind, he brought little to this group and had left most of his belongings lying in the middle of the road, odd, but not out of place for the brother I knew about.
" we are all good to go then druid? I wouldn't want to startle our boarder, if they don't return soon the boy will not heal quickly in the open."
A quick look at the sky was enough to affirm my thoughts, it was going to be night soon.
"we must hurry, we cannot be caught out in the open when the sun finally sets."
I walk towards where the merchant had run off an let out a loud piercing whistle, hoping to catch the attention of the knight, if the peddler wanted to go for a jog so be it but the knight would have to carry the boy.
" we are all good to go then druid? I wouldn't want to startle our boarder, if they don't return soon the boy will not heal quickly in the open."

Pushing my agility and speed to the max I plow through the underbrush, making all effort to not leave a trace (this is what I do, I am very skilled at it). due to me distance ahead of the party I come across the trader first.
'My lucky day, a corpse with some coin.'
I stride up to the body and find that there is still a little life in it.
"hmmm, aahh. Unfortunate for you mmm? that I would be the one to find you. Fool."
I take a knife out and grab the man by his hair and pull his head forward.
"Now then, what to do with you hmmm?"
Using the knife I pin his shirt to the tree so that he is out of my way as I pick up his fallen money, all the while listening to the crash of my followers as they try to find me.
I stand back up after grabbing what could be found and say to the trader.
"mmmm, Don't look at me like that, if you weren't so useless you wouldn't have been in this situation. ah, Now, I have a deal for you! the price you have just paid is more than enough to save you from, hmmmm a long and, painful death of exposure. Heh, I guess I'll just finish you now then."
And just as I pull the knife back out to slit his throat my comrades join me.
'unfortunate'

with the sudden, and predicatble attack on the cave I watched as my colleuges rushedo ut of the cave, performing to thier utmost. A simple bog witch and her summonings, nothing I should bother myself with, Especially with the merchant collapsing the mountain oon top of his escort.
Thinking quickly I lay down a fine line of powder that blends with the dirt but would give off a blinding flash of light as warning if it was stepped on and then against my better judgement I grab the still prone boy and hurry out through the back of the cave, previously guarded by the she-bear.
as I expected there were no threats to been seen or sensed.
Expecting the worst I drop the boy a couple of paces outside the entrance and stealthily prepare my ambush.

"hmpf, foolish meatshield, running around the multiverse looking for sidequests, all the aid we need is right here. But like I said it is rather drastic. there is a force in this forest that can be summoned, but you must light the trees on fire, he will be summoned by the departing spirits of the trees and he can heal this interloper, we don't have much time so you should hurry, I will try to stop the bleeding and help him a little, I have a few items that'll work, here" I toss my flint and tinder to the boy " we need a huge fire, that oak he was hanging in will work"
and with that I give a smirk and turn to the body, taking out a flask of whiskey I had grabbed at the tavern the night before and pour some of it into the mans cuts.

A quick look at the faces of my companions told me that this decision was neccessary. "hmm, a fair trade, but you must keep to your promises, no lies and no death."
turning to the druid, i smile and direct him into the cave, indicating where the boy was and walk towards the woman. removing the clasp of my cloak and letting it slide down my back, again revealing the kitsune I enter her grasp.
"behave yourself, or your knowlege will not save you."
Finally, the power was MINE!

"hmmm, noted uji-san. since this is your home, would you do us the favour of taking point? oh, and this-" I shake the flask at Miguel " is for you."
As I toss it to him I quickly cut the bottom out of the leather container, spilling the water all over the ground.
" Remember the price I pay for useless information, half truths and whole lies."
I crouch down to look the startled merchant in the face. 'he dares threaten me?'
"you seem out of touch with the world, the number thirteen is law. keep up merchant, or we'll hmm,ahh, have to lock you up and carry you, the boy has an urgent message and you will not hold him back. Am I clear?"
I stand and turn away from his shudders at my allusions and say with a bow.
"let us away then, if you would uji-san? and sir badtouch can take second, the boy in the centre, then the merchant where I can see him and I'll take vanguard, tu satis?"

"hmm, this is excellent, a definite selling point." I look to my new mistress and nod to the cave saying "this is us, watch out for the short one"
Turning back to my shocked compatriots I call "whats wrong? what questions do we have, she definitely can help us."
I start to walk towards the knight and prepare some tensures for his leg.
" or you can take care of yourself, walk cripple for your ,hmpf, faith has made you well HA HA HA!"
