I peek into the study room before swinging the door open. I stare at Grandpa, who's hunched over his desk and scribbling away in a journal. I shift from one foot to another and pick at the end of my shirt. I open my mouth, close it, open it again, and hesitantly say, "Hey, Grandpa... I forgot to tell you that I got apprenticed by a sorcerer, and he wants me to travel and study with him starting tomorrow... and... yea..."
He glances up at me with a serious, stoic expression. And then I see a twinkle in his eyes. "Wow, Rain. Making life-changing decisions by yourself AND studying. The world must be ending," he jokes. He laughs his head off and wipes his eyes in exaggeration. |

(Thank yoo!) Keyde- I reach Aisilia. It's amazing how I got there in one piece, Genton was crawiling with Ogres. |

I stifle a giggle of my own and cross my arms. "Well, I just thought that I'd let you know," I say, turning on my heel and leaving.
"Alright, alright! Come back here and let me give you some advice," Grandpa calls after me. I smugly grin and return to Grandpa. "Sit here, Rain, and listen well," he tells me, pointing to the stool at the corner. I sit down and listen to his "advice", which is just a list of Do's and Dont's. |

Keyde- Something has drawn me here.. but what? I wish my mind wasn't so clouded... I round off a list of Elven surnames. The sharp tingle of magic crackles on my tongue as I'm about to say a name. my mind goes blank and I can't remember at all what I was going to say. I swear in frustration, smashing my fist against the wall of a building. |

I swear I aged at least a year or two by the time Grandpa finished his list.
"Is that it?" I grumble, yawning.
"Yes. Now you can go get ready," Grandpa replies. I hop up and bounce out of the room. I leave our house, wanting to stroll around Aislia once again. |

Keyde- I slide my back down the side of the building to a sitting position. The hood of my shroud drops over my head, and I don't bother to lift it back up, I just sit there, tearlessly sobbing. |

I swing my head back and forth, absorbing every detail of the town. I march around, greeting people that I know, which is practically everyone.
Then I notice a stranger slumped against a building, crying. I glance around and approach the man, pausing a few feet away from him. "Sir, are you okay?" I ask cautiously. |

Keyde- "No.. I've been horrendously cursed by a Sorceror so many years ago.I still haven't broken it. Coins turn to ash in my hands.. I can't remember my own last name.. That blasted old Harlador took everything I needed away from me.." |

'Wow, what'd you do to deserve a curse like that?' I think to myself.
I kneel down to match his eye level and mull over what to say. I'm not exactly the person with the best advice or encouragement. "Well, that's a horrible thing that that person did, but sitting and crying won't do anything. Maybe you should go look for this sorcerer and..." my voice trails off. I narrow my eyes and examine the stranger.
"Um, have I met you before?" I ask. |

Keyde- "Now that I think of yes, I remember yeh Lass" I stand up, cough and remove my hood.
"And as for the reason I was cursed.. I split the wizard's son's arrow in an archery competiton outside the city. The jealous Harlador begged his father to curse me, admittedly I wasn't the most gracious victor."
I blink my eyes and polish my glasses, made by an old witch to help restore my sight to what it was before the sorceror cursed me. |

"What kind of jerk would give you a curse just for that? (lol)" I growl, standing back up. I tap my lip and squint at the air. "Hm... Your name was Keyde, right? Are you here for that reason? Are you looking for that sorcerer?" |

:\ "Hm... I don't think anyone here would be mean enough to do that," I murmur, batting my eyes at the darkening sky.
"It's getting late, and I should go home. You've got a place to rest, right?" I say. |

I groan and roll my eyes. "Alright then... follow me," I say, turning around and leading him back home. Grandpa wouldn't mind having a guest over for the night. He never turns down anyone who needs help. |

-Toslar-
"How long have you been here?" I asked the male wood mouse. Heather's eyes glistened with affection for the wood mouse, despite the fact that she's just met him. "Months," The wood mouse grumbled. "Months..." I echoed. The mouse nodded. "Wait- You speak!" I said. "Really? I never would've guessed!" The wood mouse said sarcastically; Heather giggled. My face flushed with embarrassment. "I mean... How can you speak? Heather can only speak because of a potion I've given her-" "-My story is different," The mouse interrupted. "I, Barris Hollysprings III, was a servant to the gods." At this statement, Heather gasped much too enthusiastically. "Go on," I commented, raising an eyebrow in curiousity. "Ah, well, I did the basic chores- Polishing, cleaning, patrolling, and the like. Fortunately, the gods no longer service, and sent me away." "Why were you grateful for leaving?" I said. "It must've been marvelous working for the gods on the Overseer Isles!" Barris sighed, as though this was a painful conversation. "I did enjoy it, but I've begun to notice the gods' distressful expressions and attitudes. In fact, their distress caused them to act ridiculous, and be angered with no purpose. A couple other servants and I could no longer... tolerate them. We were angered, we were tired, but overall we were frightened. The gods had lately been strict, and rough on the servants. It was all I could do to show gratitude to the gods and announce my departure. I then fleed from the island, as well as the others..." |
