Dark Rider – Return To Bas’adia
…after a Long Walk Down the side of the Mountain, the White Owl following close behind,
The Dark Rider would not return to his his Village… And he would not retrieve his Ebon Blade.
The Rendolyn Elf had given him back his life, and so the life he knew before was no more. He would seek out a Purpose, A Cause, a Meaning to his existence. In other words, he had absolutely no idea what he was going to do, nor where his Life Path would Lead him.
“You look tired… Old friend” A familiar voice came to him. It was Largoth, the Elven Thalon Mercenary he had befriended in Rodomor. “You are a site for soar eyes my friend…” The Dark Rider was quick to greet him warmly Arm and Arm. Largoth looked about, “But where is your Steed Tribune… Tell me you did not lose him in some foul bet at Cards…” “Ha, no my friend… I sent him on his way, I suspect he shall never return”. Just then a Naying could be heard from behind Largoth.
“I think perhaps you are wrong my friend…”
Tribune had returned. “I am heading to Bas’adia if you’re interested… See what kind of Work I can drum up for the Winter…” Largoth spoke. The Dark Rider scratched his chin and “Sounds like a Plan… Is there a good Weapon smith there, I’m in need of a New Weapon”. “Indeed there is…” he replied. The two of them head East, and Largoth quickly takes note of the White Owl that appears to be following them. “A friend of yours?” he asked the Dark Rider. “Ha, lets just say, they’ve helped me into this New Life, and for that, I shall not abandon them”.

Ooh, Im glad your continuing with it. I could hear the crunching of the snow as they walked off and feel the brisk chill in the air. Thalon mercenaries sound really cool.

lol, yeah there is only so long that I can work on a Sci-Piece “Captain Fire 197”, before Fantasy Tales start to pull me back to their side. And, I suppose it needed time to shift from a Single Piece, to the Beginning of something more. Glad you’re Glad. And thanks once again for you Comment Mid.
