Harkam was buried on temple grounds and Urg himself conducted the ritual of passing to speed Harkam on his way to eternal life. The sadness of losing his close friend is made easier by the new joy in Urg’s life; his first child Jaken was born a healthy 11-pound baby boy. The infant shows little of his ogre heritage and resembles his mother in most ways, a fact Urg is thankful for. Jaken, now four years old, did inherit one of his father’s traits, he has developed a shock of blue-black hair just like Urg’s. The small family still dwells in Urg’s tower and there the two spellcasters continue their magical research and see to their child’s education. In the four years Urg and Kitkazza have been married Urg has learned very little of his wife’s history. She is loath to speak of her past and Urg has only been able to assemble a very rough picture of her life before she came to Longsaddle. Kitkazza has admitted that her mother was drow and that her father knew her mother only briefly. Kitkazza’s mother played no role in her life and her father raised her. Kitkazza refuses speak of the place she and her father spent the majority of her childhood no matter how much her husband pleads. When Kitkazza reached her adolescence her natural magic began to manifest and when she was old enough she set out to learn as much of her innate spell ability as she could. She joined various adventuring groups, never for very long, and her experience and power grew. She quickly tired of the adventuring life and settled in the last place her most recent adventuring group disbanded. That place was the town of Red Larch and there Kitkazza lived until she heard the rumor of a half-ogre spellcaster in the town of Longsaddle and began paying visits to the unlikely wizard. Urg of course knows the rest of her story, but he feels a distance from his wife that he cannot breach. Kaylek, Urg’s dwarven apprentice has learned all that he can from Urg and with his mentor’s blessing has set out to see what kind of wizard he can become. Without the aid of Kaylek, Urg spends more time minding his shop than he would like and is considering hiring some help until Jaken is old enough to take up the slack. Urg still finds the time to create magical items and has even constructed a magical circlet to boost his already impressive intellect. “Urg’s Unlikely Artifacts” continues to thrive largely due to the patronage of a handful of wizards from Waterdeep and Silverymoon. These wizards request specialty items two to three times a year and pay handsomely for their creation. With his coffers brimming Urg has far more wealth than he and his family will ever need and generally donates the excess to the temple of Tyr for the benefit of the town.Urg makes every attempt to spend his days doting over his son and enjoying his life. Now in his mid fifties, he is still healthy and strong and has a score of years before age can even begin to undermine his ogrish vitality. Urg’s marriage is a constant source of joy for him and even though Kitkazza will not reveal her past to him Urg loves her to a fault and makes sure that her every wish is fulfilled. In turn Kitkazza’s adoration of her husband is subtler but there is no question of her steadfast devotion to the half-ogre. Urg hopes that his son might exhibit some of the magical talent of his parents but has not yet begun to train Jaken in the arcane arts, preferring that his son choose his own path when he is of age.</blockquote>
