RoleChapter 5 Memories Added Sun Feb 13 13:13:56 2022 at level 48:I remember when I was young. We lived below, of course, as all of our kin Never met my father, fool had vanished like a ghost. It takes a strong will to raise our kind, down there.
We did not belong to one of the ruling houses of Teth Azeleth, and if we did, I hardly doubt we would be welcomed anyways.
"Our society does not reward those who are abandoned." "The abandoned reward themselves".
My mother's words, not mine.
So I did, learning what a bit of coin and a bit of initiative could do for my stomach. Scrounging after the patrols. Stealing, even, though I consider that to be a shame. No, no, a shame, with my talents. And so, I found myself gainfully employed, as a pair of eyes for one of the many dubious businesses in the depths. I never looked backwards to see what they had inside, for my limbs trembled with fear for what would emerge out of the dark. But it kept me fed, and I suppose that's better than being dead.
And so, I had clawed my way to an existence. Enough rations to support my family. A meager existence, but an existence still.
And then, you know the funny part? Our downfall came not from the slavers of the deep dwarves, nor from the caprice of a spider priestess, but rather... a quite intrepid group of adventurers.
They had come, like so many before, to seek the glories of the Underdark. All I felt, was a hard strike to my throat, and a crash on the back of my head.
I awoke to them talking. talking about the equipment they had looted, apparently from my bosses' stores.
As they turned to leave, a cat dressed in leather wraps raised his sword, as well as his sharp, denuded claws. At this moment, a human, in shining plate stepped between us and intercepted the blade. "He is only a child. Can't you see?" As they grumbled... I managed to wrestle free from my bindings and escape into the tunnels.
As he pursued, I noticed an image of a radiant sun, branded on his cuirass. "Wait!"
But my mother taught me, "Our society does not reward the abandoned."
I turned back around, drove my head down, and bolted.
