Chapter 3

     As requested by the man in the house, we helped him to defeat the tomato golem in his basement. It wasn't an easy task though, Quanta nearly got killed and Ryotine's dog was severely injured. When the golem died, Ryotine and Faeron grabbed the small golem pieces scattered on the ground and munched 'em. They looked like uncivilized people who have not eaten for days. Speaking of eating.... We had not eat anything since yesterday... Fortunately the man's wife came back and after Faeron did some explaination, she thanked us and invited us for dinner. She also gave us some potions which Ryotine used to save her dog. After the team had dinner and some rest, we continued our journey to Jolton.

     Upon reaching the gates of Jolton, we saw some guards fighting with a group of creatures. At second glance, we could tell those creatures are kobolds. Without much thinking I took out my light crossbow and fired at the kobold's leader. However, the arrow missed completely and the kobolds noticed us. We took out our weapons and got ready for battle. As we slaughtered our way to the gates, the guards told us to investigate what's causing the gates to malfunction. Rohan and I went to check out the left mechanism room while Quanta and Faeron went for the right mechanism room. Apparently, a stone were clogging the door's mechanism. We took it out and one of the gates functioned properly. Faeron and Quanta did the same in the right mechanism room and the door was able to close now.

     After that, the guards thanked us for helping and one of the guard approached Faeron. The guard explained what happened and told us to look for the mayor in Jolton's hall. So, we proceeded to enter the town. We stopped by the nearest inn to settle down before going to the hall. Once we were in front of the hall, we could see three circular rings stuck on the ground and every now and then, lightning bolts could be seen passing through the rings. 

     In the hall, there was a large painting of a person on the wall. The person in the painting had an eye patch on his left eye. The description of the painting stated that the person in the painting is the mayor of the town and the initial "R" was written on the description. It was also followed by a poem about dragons. I couldn't understand the poem though... It's too deep for someone like me to understand. Then, I realized that the person in the painting looks similiar to Rohan! They both have eye patch on their left eye and the initial "R"; Rohan's name starts with "R" as well! Rohan looked confused and showed us his dragon tattoo on his arm. What the drok? Dragon tattoo and poem about dragons. Were they somehow connected?.... Rohan, who exactly are you?

Chapter 2

     As we were walking towards west. The ranger asked for our names. So, we started introducing ourselves. Seems like everyone only remembered their names and nothing more regarding their backgrounds. Regardless, at least we know what to call each other now. Faeron, the ranger seems to be a good leader. He has the characteristics to be one it seems. I'm sure everyone agrees as well since we always let Faeron did the talking and decision making.

     During our journey to Jolton, the town located at west. We went into a forest and stumbled upon yet another fight with some creatures. This time it's a group of kobolds. Faeron seems to understand their language though. He tried to ask the kobold shaman questions but I guess he didn't get much information out of it. We tried to give chase to the fleeing kobold shaman but we failed miserably. So we went back and picked up the loots. Among the loots there's a magicial sling that was glowing in blue. My instinct told me that it must have something to do with the blue gems embedded on our weapons. Hence, I told Ryotine, the halfing, which uses a sling to put her sling and the magical sling close together. And boooom! The magical sling shattered to pieces and disappeared. After that, they tried to appraise Ryotine's weapon. It seems that the magical sling's has transferred its magical power to Ryotine's sling.

     As the sky turned dark, we knew it's impossible to continue our journey. So, we set up a campfire and they went to sleep while Quanta and I meditate  We took turns to be the sentinel though. After a few hours, a zombie came and Ryotine's dog and Quanta's cat came to finish off the zombie.

     We continued our journey when the sun rise and finally we went out of the forest. Then, we approached a house with this beautiful maple tree in front of it. There was a weird smell though... Suddenly, a pink human-like figured appeared. The creature was droking disgusting! It had maggots everywhere on its body! After we killed the monster, we knew something wasn't right with this house. We quickly entered and we split into 2 groups.

     Me, Ryotine and Kim went upstairs while the others investigate the dining room. I could sense something terrifying was up there. It felt like I was swallowed in a black void; it was terrifying. Kim, unable to comprehend that feeling broke out in fear and dashed into the toilet. What a man!.. We can then see a tiny creature tearing some paper sheets apart beside the bed. We attacked it but it flew away. Ryotine's cute face was scratched by it though... The rest of the party then came upstairs. The guy who were lying on his bed with tomato all over his shirt requested us to kill a tomato golem at his basement. Well he said he'll give us something in return so I guess it's worth trying..... Tomato golem, you're going down!

Chapter 1


Amnesia, monster and explosion.


     "Who am I, why am I here?", I questioned myself as I try to stand up. Damn, my head was throbbing. What happened? What in the world was I doing? Amidst all the confusing thoughts, something sparkly caught my attention; there was a dagger beside me. It looked like a normal dagger except the handle of the dagger were embedded with a blue gem. Out of curiosity, I bit the gem to check if it's real. Good gods, it's real! Does it worth a lot of gold? Still, this dagger felt so familiar. Was it mine? Nevertheless, I kept the dagger with me.

     As I checked my surroundings, I noticed that I wasn't alone. There were 5 people around me. Everyone seemed as puzzled as I was. I quickly approached the elf nearest to me to ask if he knew what happened. He didn't give me a proper answer and went back to investigate his crossbow. Weird enough, his crossbow is embedded with a blue gem too... All of a sudden, the half-elf ranger seemed terrified and drew out his bow. I unconsciously reacted by doing the same.

     After I took a deep breath, it seemed clear to me now why he and the naked human monk felt so terrified. I mean, how can I not notice?! We were in a crater filled with undead creatures and skeletons! The skeleton bones behind me started arranging itself and stood up. It even started to attack me. I tried to take him down with my dagger but it was unavailing. My stabs and slices were too weak to break the bones. While all of this were happening that good-for-nothing human cleric started scolding the cute halfing. What in the world? There is a time for everything and now is definitely not the time for that! Speaking of which, how dare he insults such a lovely girl!

     After a few rounds of exchanging hits, the human cleric started chanting something with his fist held high. All I could heard was "Pahbeebee" was repeated few times in the chant. Suddenly, the monsters started backing off. Finally, the human cleric is doing something useful! That gave us opportunity to deal some ranged damage to the monsters. While we were busy trying to take them down, more and more monsters started "waking up". We can now see that this is hopeless, the number of monsters kept on increasing. So our best choice of solution was to run away from the crater.

     During our desperate attempt to escape, wizards in red cloak and blue cape appeared out of nowhere! They saved us by killing all the monsters with flashy spells. Wow, so that's what a mage can do. Unlike the elf mage we have here... Apparently, they were here to investigate an explosion that created this crater. They also told us the nearest town is located to the west. We thanked the wizards and left the crater.

    A town huh? I hope I can discover something about myself there...
