Welcome back everyone. Enjoy and review.
The Fate of the Ring
"And now what I had to show you is finished." Stated Wodanaz as he looked at Gard. "It was all to send you on a mission so you would know what to look for."
"The ring?" asked Gard. Wodanaz nodded. "Where is it now?"
"Buried at the top of the highest mountain in the Wilderness." Replied Wodanaz.
"What?" asked Gard in shock! "But that mountain is blest ground, it is where you began your teachings of shamanism."
"For the Labinnac it is hunting ground." Said Wodanaz. "It will be dangerous because of that."
"I can find it. I know the entire Wilderness like the back of my hand."
"Find it, throw it into the Labinnac hordes and watch as they fall victim to its power." Instructed Wodanaz.
When Gard awoke he stood up, gently placing the sleeping Balor in a corner as he got up. Walking to the entrance of his family's hall, he looked out into the distance and saw the rising sun.
A ball of golden flames… Now he was to seek out a ring of gold. Gard did not understand the fascination other races had for gold. Being an Evabon it was only natural. They had no interest in gold. The Labinnac however were a race most intoxicated by any sort of lust be it for blood or gold but when it came to the latter it had more to do with warriors who were not the leaders not getting any spoils.
Gard remembered WilyKat speaking of a city of gold. Gard thought little of it and even then Procyon had destroyed the city long ago.
Gold, jewels, treasure… It was all something that did not matter to an Evabon. For an Evabon all was needed was freedom, the breeze across their face and good company.
Still if a lack of spoils was enough to send the Labinnac of hordes into disarray at the sight of one ring, then treasure could be an excellent weapon in fighting them. Hopefully, it would break them entirely.
