[QUOTE="megamania, post: 833592, member: 9255"] UNDER A DARKSUN SEGMENT 045 “Finding a Purpose” It has been a few days since Mania saw the strange man. His words made Mania’s head hurt. What did he mean by finding a purpose or a faith? The biggest mystery may be the word “again”. When and where had he meant the man before? Why did his skin show no signs of age or sun? Mania walked towards the arena looking for work. The Starlight Festival was coming up. It was a weeklong festival that included arena matches. Maybe they needed help setting it up. He had to do something. A sealed wagon was going by him. Arena workers and a few templars in guard formation surrounded the wagon. From within the wagon something tried to contact Mania’s mind. Or was it his imagination? Whatever it was, it was evil and full of hatred. Mania has discovered that Dirty Dogg and Jocasta had left on a caravan duty. Greene said they looked for him with great amounts of concern. He spoke of the man to Greene. In a childlike manner, Greene simply passed it off as his imagination. A few children ran by him playing templar and rogue. Mania wished he still had that joy, that innocence, about him. That was when he first realized he was changing. He wasn’t a boy anymore. He was a man. It was time to act the part. Perhaps that is part of the answer Savos hinted at. But what kind of purpose would he have? A sudden scream broke his thought. It came from ahead of him. He ran there and saw people running away from the wagon that just passed him. The doors were broken and a body of a templar lay in blood. The workers and remaining Templars were too concerned to protect themselves. The creature that was inside was tearing into the people…the children! Running up and unclasping his magical club, Mania got a better look at the creature. “no….a tembo..” [/QUOTE]
