SUMMARY: A Druid, a bard, and a Magic user are heading to Kingsbury to make their living. On their way they encounter the witch of the waste, and help her to get pass the wards that were cast around Kingsbury. Can they undo the mess they made, or will they end up trapped in their deepest fears?

Chapter One— In which a Druid, a Bard, and a magic user make their way to Market Chipping

Brittany the druid, Mary the bard, and Daria the magic user, made there way to Kingsbury with such high hopes, only to be crushed by society. Brittany, was an elf, with black hair, tied into a pony tail, she was tall and thin, and had brown eyes, easily spotted for an elf. Mary was a half elf, she had short blonde hair, and average human height, blue eyes, also easily spotted as an elf. Daria, another half elf, had long dark brown hair always tied back in one long braid, brown eyes, was a tad taller then the average human, green eyes, thin.

Daria was taught magic by a tree, the same tree that taught Mary, and Brittany. Daria always wore green, and carried a staff, carved into the staff was a picture of the tree that taught them. Mary, always kept drums, and of course a string instrument in handy, she wore brown. Brittany, kept a war hammer, and wore a green vest, and brown pants. Brittany had common sense; Mary was the optimist, and Daria, smart.

Each contributed to the group of friends they became. Daria, helped by making money as a magic user were ever they went; she patched roofs, cleared trees, etc. Brittany foraged and hunted for their food. While Mary, made clothes, camps, and the backpacks they needed.

Each one had a secret they told only to each other. Brittany, Mary, and Daria, were all part evil. Brittany's father was a dark elf, he was a shadow night (un-holy warriors), while Mary's was a cleric (healer). Daria's mother on the other hand was a Dark elf Necromancer. You could see the evil in them when they got angry, other then that, they looked pretty normal.

"Daria, were low on water and I can't find a stream! Where is the nearest town, city, or village?" Brittany asked.

"Nearest town is Market Chipping, which is good because we would have had to cut through it in order to get to Kingsbury," Daria replied.

"Really? I thought we were going to cut through Porthaven to get to Kingsbury." Mary said.

"Porthaven is by the sea, it would take to long," snapped Dragon.

"Which place is quieter?" Mary asked.

"Reckon Market Chipping is," Brittany replied.

"Then let's go that way!" Mary exclaimed.

Daria hit Mary up side the head, "We are going that way!"

"Oh," Mary said.

Daria rolled her eyes. She wasn't much of a people person, in fact she wasn't social at all.

"Come on you guys the faster we get there the more water we save!" Brittany said.

"Fine, let's get going," Mary said.

All three of them got up, and began to clean up camp.

"How much money do we have Daria?" Brittany asked.

"Trust me, we have more then enough to make it in Ingary." Daria replied.

"Come on you two!" Mary said.

"Moving," Brittany and Daria said.

They left, day by day they traveled to Market Chipping, wanting to get there as fast as they could, only to encounter one major irritation.
