#670, "Graeterok's Role Chapter 2"

RoleChapter 2 The Mountain Weeps Added Tue Feb 3 00:43:00 2004 at level 37:All through his adventures on the surface, Graeterok visited the Inn frequently. He became enough of a regular that he was vouched many times to visit the Lyceum as well, and retreated there to study the histories of the races which so fascinated him at the Inn. Yet, one thing that had bothered him was the lack of the history of the Svirfneblin people. When he had broached this subject with Sastine, she could offer little on the history of his own people.
Thinking long and hard, he excused himself to speak with the king of Blingdenstone, seeking permission to allow others to know the history of a much misunderstood race. The king, seeking the opportunity to let his people appear proud and great, told Graeterok to tell the bard only lies that would please the ears of simple Therans.

It should be noted here, however, that the king wanted all memories of the Svirfneblin history to be erased from Graeterok's mind, along with all knowledge of Blingdenstone and the like. However, the enforcer's mother, ever watching out for her son, cast a spell of forgetfulness on how to make his way back home.
Awakening in a field of rocks and brambles, Graeterok knew something was amiss. He tried to think of the events that had occurred, but his head was rather fuzzy. He thought about heading back to Blingdenstone, but alas, for some odd reason, he could remember the way back. He began to remember the cruel smile of his king and the sad nod of his mother and immediately recognized what must have happened. Alone and without a home, Graeterok sat down in the field and cried...
