Well, no sooner had I left town than I decided to try my luck for the first time. I
took out the dice and threw them on the street. I just couldn't wait. The first
The dice showed a 2, the other a 4, making a total of 6. Well, at least it was for something
Arithmetic lesson good. And suddenly the compass aligned itself directly with the road.
If my memory doesn't fool me, the sixth artifact was the wing shoes. If I
That’s right, it will help me a lot, because they should enable their wearer in the shortest possible time
to travel. So I set off in a good mood.
I soon realized the compass's capabilities. At every intersection he pointed exactly in the direction
a bend. Great thing. It seemed to be leading me north. But than the night
broke in, to my regret I was still standing in the middle of a forest. And I knew that
next town Terena was a good six hours away.Well, I had to like my tent or not
unpack and sleep in the forest. So I made a fire, put some beans in a pot
'Why haven't I packed anything decent? ', and made me feel relatively comfortable. OK it was
not as great as in a bed, but I already knew then that I had to get used to it.
After a while my oh so delicious beans were ready and I was just about to start
to at least get rid of my hunger when suddenly I heard a low noise. From that
Startled, I looked around and saw a shadow in the forest. "Hey who there
also is, show yourself! “But whoever it was didn't answer. I grabbed my sword and ran in
into the forest, which should prove to be a mistake. I heard how before me again and again
Branches cracked, but they were always about 10 meters away. However after seeing her for a while
ran after, I suddenly noticed that there was nothing left. "What a bummer he / she / it isescaped. "So I decided to turn back and eat my beans. Make such a hunt
yes also terribly hungry. But when I got back to my camp, a bad one awaited me
Surprise. In all seriousness there was a figure sitting by the fire and ate my beans with relish, well,
maybe not exactly enjoyable. But he / she / it ate my only supplies. Only the thief had me
well noticed. I hurried to grab him, but didn't even see his face before he did
a giant leap into the branches of the trees disappeared. The only thing i could see was
that it was a fairly well-endowed woman, a little short, and with pointy ears! I
I was no longer amazed. But no matter if human or elf, man or woman, big or small
flat-chested: She had eaten my beans from me. Well, I was too tired of it
To worry about, so I went to bed with a growling stomach and finally fell asleep.
Around noon the next day I finally reached Terena.The first thing I did was that
Go to the gun shop in the city center. When I walked in, I was pretty impressed. All over
The best quality weapons and armor hung on the walls. I only had a small financial one
Problem because the king only gave me a few gold pieces. 'Stingy as a gnome,' thought
I to myself when I held a very expensive but beautiful sword in my hand. Well, I scratched
I bought my coins with the Enriathic coat of arms and bought one for me
worn armor and shield. Okay, it had to be enough for now. After something at the inn
I decided to visit the local monastery because an old friend of mine
actually not 'old', but of the same age, lived there. It has been a long time since I visited him
had, but since we had known each other since we were children, he would hardly forget me
I hoped. When I finally got to the other end of town in front of this gigantic structurestood up, I was quite amazed. I knew it had been great, but the thing was a
Lock. I think almost bigger than my old home. It actually looked like a fortress
also the gate I had to knock on. After a while a small flap opened and a
old, rather unfriendly-looking monk looked at me. "Who is there and what do you want?"
"Um, I'm Pyoritos, an old friend of Thamir. I think he's in this monastery. Would that be
possible? "I replied meekly. After an equally rude" Wait! "he slammed the flap.
Well, I crouched down by the gate and waited ... And waited ...
When nothing happened after a quarter of an hour, I rummaged some of this out of my backpack
Herb, we usually just call it smoky herb, but the scholars have some "right"
Name for it. Then another piece of paper and light it on one of the torches in the monastery. I
I think that's kind of rude, but nobody saw me.Another ten
Minutes later the gate finally opened and despite the long, past time I recognized
Thamir's friendly face with the well-groomed, black hair, and otherwise he hardly had each other
changed. He was still ten centimeters shorter than me .. "Pyro! Sorry about you
Had to wait, but it's hard to find anyone in this house, "he greeted me with a smile.
"I just hope Brother Rolis wasn't too rude. He's a bit ... grumpy sometimes. But after
a couple of glasses of wine you can really have fun with him. "And his laugh got even bigger. That
is something I admire about him. No matter how much he laughs, it never looks stupid. The
Most of them, including me, grimaced in a silly grin at some point
you might want to hit it, especially under the influence of beer, but not with him.
Maybe that's why I liked him from day one. "Hey, but you gotta turn this thing off.Cyrio fellanis is banned here. "Oh yes, that was the name of the stuff. Who remembers that anyway?
At least I put it on the wall and threw it over my shoulder into the nearest bush.
However, Thamir looked at me a bit wrong ... "What? Did I do something wrong?"
Finally, Thamir showed me around a little. Through the library (yawn ...), the monastery garden
(Double yawn ...) and finally into the prayer room (yawn again ...) Why didn't he give me the
Nuns room shown? Or the armory that I was to discover later? No matter when we in
in his room, I told him about the king's commission. But not mine
nocturnal experience. I was a little embarrassed.
"Well, a nice story ... But somehow I am troubled by the thought that the existence of the
World is in your hands, "he said with his huge grin. Okay, I let him have that
Joy and refrained from killing him. Gracious, isn't it? "But you're wrong in one way: ThatThe sixth artifact is, according to legend, the ring of light, not the wing shoes. "" Ahh, one of those
Damn. And I was looking forward to a quick trip, "I growled. But Thamir calmed down
Me: "The ring is also useful. It supposedly makes it possible to bring light into the darkest caves."
"Great, have you ever heard of fire, or don't you know this?" "Haha, very funny,"
he replied, "Only he is capable of further things. Not only that he is also under water
shines, it is supposed to give great powers to white wizards. "Great, I thought, because I did
was such a dazzling magician. I tried to expand my skills
but couldn't even create a tiny fireball, which everyone else can do. "Well, you
look so weird? Are you trying to think? "This lousy priest tore me out again
my thoughts. “Sure you never could use magic, right?” He knows me
way too good ... "Well, it is said that magical abilities came from people's intelligence,but it sure has nothing to do with you. "And that grin again ... I already felt mine
Finger on the hilt of the sword, its tips annoyed me so much. Oh god, how I missed him !!!
"But now please show me this magic compass," he asked me. I went to mine
Backpack and rummaged around in it until I found it under some food and a couple of shirts. But
the compass was acting weird. The needle rotated in a circle like a griffin at mating season.
"Hey Thamir, take a look at this! Do you think he's broken?" "No, I doubt it," he reassured
me, "Not even you can ruin a thousand year old artifact in one day" - growl -
"I suppose it says the ring is very close ..." "But ... how is that possible?" "Well, it's called this
The monastery was founded by one of the twelve great warriors. Maybe he brought him here. "
I jumped up from my chair and shouted, "Then I'll find him!" Thamir tried me
hold back: "Well, take it easy.Isn't that still possible tomorrow? After all, it's soon
Midnight."
But I had already left the room and followed the recurring instructions of the
Compass needle. I had already walked a good distance - what was the size of this building - than
I bumped into someone. At first I thought it was a monk, but under the robe
I could see the contours of a woman pretty clearly. Besides, I noticed under hers
Clothing was something else that clearly identified her as a woman. I'm just a man.
However, she disappeared immediately, even though I somehow had the feeling that I knew her ...
But I didn't care. I kept walking until I found a room full of armor and the finest of weapons
Quality found. Normally I would have stayed there for hours, but the thirst for adventure got me
packed. Only the compass pointed to a wall in front of me. Before I thought much about it
If someone came in the door behind me and without looking I drew my sword, I turnedand held it to the intruder's throat. Until it turned out to be Thamir. "Hey,
very calm. I thought you needed some help. "Well he was right. I showed him the compass and he
walked to the wall, pulled a torch, and a corridor opened. Where did the guy get this from
outrageous luck? Well, we walked into a rather stuffy hallway together that gave me a
chilled shivers down your spine. I walked slowly with a torch, being mine
Priest friend slowly followed me. “It's scary, isn't it?” “But you can say it out loud. And me
I have the feeling that there is something here ... "Reluctantly, I got approval. But it was right
calm. Every now and then we would see some bats that I killed or we would hear a moan
Noise. Fortunately, however, I had my compass, which undoubtedly showed me the way.
After roughly an hour we
