The FLAME

The weather outside hadn't been very good all day, so I decided to head into the local pub near Market Square. When I got there I heard much commotion from the people about the "declaration of war" that Elbryan had made that day. I was obviously very confused as the last time that I had talked with Elbryan and Quaster everything seemed peaceful enough. Quickly I removed my symbol of the Lord Kossuth so that I might gain information without people knowing which side I stood on, as I approahed the bar, feeling naked, I heard the name Fafnir mentioned.

At the bar I tried my best to stay quiet even as it was obvious that the group sided with the obviously wrong Ishtishans, but tis not in me to cause a large scene in a peaceful bar. So I just listened as they told of the Istishan church accepting Fafnir, and of Fafnir's resent threat on the life of Elbryan.

I was outraged at this news, but decided to keep my cool, so slowly moved my cloak away from the large sword and spear that I carry at all times, and put on the Holy Symbol of the Lord Kossuth. At this the onversation went silent, and the men knowin that they were overpowered slowly left the bar peacefully.

When I was alone at the bar at last, or thought I was alone at least I began to think the whole thing through to myself. If Elbryan had declared war on CoI, ar at the least had nullified the peace his life would be in danger as the fanatical Fafnir had already threatened his life.

I had a new mission, to protect Elbryan at all costs as he led the Flames to a glorious victory against the silly puddle people.
