Oberon entered the Velvet Vail and looked around. The place was packed men and women. The elf made his way to the bar and sat down. The bartender looked at the hooded elf.

"What can I do for you stranger?"

"I'm looking for the owner of this establishment." Said Oberon.

It was at that moment that Velvet came walking up and went behind the bar to grab a bottle from the shelf. Oberon watched Velvet and noticed that her right hand shook slightly as she poured herself a glass.

"Mistress Velvet, this man with the cloak wishes to see you." Said the bartender.

"And who might you be?" Asked Velvet.

"Just a traveler, who once knew your father very well and I wish to speak to you privately." Replied Oberon.

"Alright then, follow me to my quarters then, but if you try to pull anything, you'll regret it." Said Velvet as she walked out from the bar.

Oberon followed and the two went to Velvet's room. The elf removed his cloak revealing his true identity. Velvet blinked in surprise.

"Hello Velvet, it's me Oberon Greenhaze." Said Oberon.

"Oh how wonderful another person whose supposed to be dead is now among the living! Can't anyone stay dead these days?" Said Velvet with a bitter humorless laugh.

"Well I was indeed dead, but the Mother Goddess decided to bring me back to life if I proved myself worthy." Said Oberon.

The elf then began to tell Velvet about his adventure in the Abyss and how he and Kahn skilled the Forgotten and were brought back to life. Oberon then told Velvet about his current quest to stop Gallant and bring order back to the land.

"Well it seems you've been busy. I normally don't wish heroes luck on their quest, but I'll make an acceptance. Once you do storm the Dark Tower, please save Rose, she's the only family I have left...and she's pregnant. I would hate to see my niece or nephew grow up in that horrible place, especially with creeps like Gnarl to corrupt them." Said Velvet

"I give you my word that I'll save her." Said Oberon.

"There's something else I need to tell you." Said Velvet.

The woman then told Oberon about her powers and what she saw in the Abyss.

"So this Black Baron is an evil that was trapped in the Abyss and now his breaking out." Said Oberon, as he began to understand why Velvet seemed a little spooked.

"Yes and he is the very definition of pure evil. I fear...for the safety of the entire world." Said Velvet looking quit nervous.

"Well whenever this Black Baron arrives, I will do everything in my power to send him back to the dark put he came from." Said Oberon.

The elf then put his cloak back on said goodbye to Velvet and walked out of the tavern. Velvet poured herself a glass of wine as she wondered about the future.
