Role

Chapter 10

It seems like a century ago that Oxias achieved his goal of becoming Mageslayer. Actually, that might be
because it was. Many important things have transpired for Oxias since then. Sometime after Rettia
stepped down Oxias was named Commander of the Village. It was surprising to him that he was named in
lieu of the Rites, but, it shouldnt have been too much so as Izqi had hinted at a Commander being named
without a Rites in his last meeting with her. That was so long ago. He missed Izqi and hoped she was well
existing beyond the cares of mortality.

Oxias also became a full Mason of the Paragon. His statue of the Three Masons was finished to the
Biddys satisfaction and now stands proudly displayed in her cavern for any who wish to learn about the
faith to see. And that really was what the statue is supposed to be. A teaching tool for aspiring masons.
The Biddy hinted at more learning to come and it was not until recently that Trkroo has decided to teach
him about the smithing side of the faith. Despite his age advancing, Oxias is excited to learn more of what
Ysaloeryes Inn has to offer.

Finally, Oxiass suspicions about the red-haired dwarf doll were confirmed. It was actually Thror and in
perfect likeness of him. Thror revealed himself to the Village and honored Oxias and the Drillmaster with
some good old-fashioned sparring.

Between the new step in the faith and the revealing of Thror, Oxias hopes for excitement in the days
ahead, for his age grows and body wanes, and they could be his last.
