Last we left off, Dark Lord Stan was trying to intimidate me and was doing a pretty good job of it, I have to admit. That’s when a stranger stepped in!
I’d never seen this fellow before, but he got right up in Stan’s face. I guess Stan saw he was in for a fight because he backed down and ran off as he often does.
The stranger introduced himself as Ben, a travelling mage. But I have a feeling he’s a bit more than that if he’s making the Dark Lord run away!
Following our introductions, he said something rather strange to me…
I guess ‘twas meant as encouragement, but I can’t help be a little curious what he saw in me. He didn’t stick around long, however, and was off on his own business before I had a chance to say thank you.
Afterwards, Scylla and I had a conversation about our new-found ally.
