My name is Malemos.
I was left in the woods near Amethyst when I was a small child assumably by my mother or father. Luckily a young ranger stumbled upon me and took me in to be looked after by a nearby ranger guild. By my 14th year with the rangers I felt it was time to go and discover the world for myself. I thanked the rangers for all that they had done for me and promised to return occasionally.
The first town I came to was the town of Amethyst. I was immediatly greeted by an intimadating and somewhat good looking town guard. I said to her " I am new here in amethyst. What would a tourist have to do to get a good looking escort like yourself to show me around town?" " Move along citizen!" was her very cold reply. I think she is into other girls, you know the kind.
I wandered around the north end of town for a while trying to bargin with a couple hawkers and a stall holder when I noticed a streetsweeper. He was looking overwhelmed with the load he was carrying. Feeling bad for him I offered to help him out. H quickly took me up on my offer and handed me a crate of wilted lettuce and pointed in the direction of where to take it.
The walk to the tip was fairley short but with the smelly wilted crate of lettuce it seemed alot longer. The trash was piled very high at the dump I disposed of the garbage and was compensated for my troubles.
I decided to go to the town hall and complain about the enormous amount of trash. As I walked I noticed the chared remains of several buildings, wondering what had happened here had preoccupied my mind
when I heard a footstep directly behind me..
I wheeled around very startled and caught a blade across my chest. " GIVE ME ALL YOUR GOLD half-elf!! " I couldnt belive it I was getting mugged. In response to his demand I scrambled for the Knife on my hip with my left hand causeing my mugger to lunge at me with the blade in his right hand. I dove to my left just in time to catch his knife in my right side.
As I fell to the ground I launched my knife at his angerd face. My knife found a home in the dirt as it bounced off my muggers head and landed on the ground. I forced myself to me feet and tried to run as he was trying to shake off being stuned from the knife hitting him.
I had only made It about 10 feet away when I knew I wouldnt be able to outrun him, I grabed my short bow, spun around, and Knocked an arrow. He was comeing out of his daze and started to charge at me. I tried to ignore the knife still in my stomach as I aimed and released my last chance at surviving this mugger. My arrow slamed hard into my enemies chest, causing him to fall backwards.
Not knowing if the arrow did him in or not, And bleeding to bad to want to find out I started to stumble my way toward the town chapel in hopes of a cleric or two on duty.
I woke up a few days later in the chapel very soar but alive and missing the comforts of the guild.
I wonder if that cute town guard would like to go on a picnic.................
