A familar face in a new town

a figure can be seen mostly in the shadows or at the edge of sight. it seems to be lurking around slowly as if familiarizing itself with the city of song or it could be looking for something. it notices a few new faces and a lot of new construction having been gone a while this is not surprising.

on occasion a guard may glimpse in its direction while older ones my recognize it as they get closer then turn going about their patrols. it makes no attempts to hide or flee just goes about its time there.

it travels all over the city looking for something and now and then can be heard saying the crystal isnt here and continues on looking. this happens every night before it leaves the city for a bit.

having left the city it runs into zombies weather this is a normal thing or a random encounter is unclear still but 16 are quickly dispatched before it continues on.

traveling a while it takes rest at two forts and meets some old friends and possibly new ones the last being unclear as yet. they chat a while before it stands and makes its parting known before vanishing into then air.

it repeats its nightly patrol searching and gaining some familiarity with the city before venturing out once again this time it seems to follow an old familiar path and finds it self at the cross roads where once again he meets some of the old friends from before and so passer bys stop and join in the chat.

they stand and chat for hours it seems and few more gather they chat as well after a while it grows tired and seeks rest and vanishes in thin air.

As it looks around the city some may begin to recognize it others new to the city may not either way he makes no attempt to hide and if approached he does speak. if not then he goes about his way.

it seems the once farm town has now become more secure and military like. seems it has lost a mine that once was there and many buildings seem to have gotten demolished. it also seems further north the land is only green near the entrance and more dirt like after.

the city of song seems to have sprouted new buildings and alot of new faces. this city as well seems to be missing a mine that was once there now gone. the main part of the city has now grown as well seems to have more shops and so forth. the space seems better used now than before and more guard posts as well.

having traveled in an out of the city now many times his running tally comes to an end of 50 undead killed to he has not seen them in last couple trips he remains cautious while traveling the lands.

he can be seen coming and going by boat now most times unloading bags of gems and metals into storage and selling off odds and ends hes collected.

he finds it odd he has yet to see people he was close to while yet he has talked to many he knows.

since the crystal he found was overgrown and slightly cracked he has taken up residency in the tower of a friend in rimwood for now until he can fix his crystal. once he fixes the crystal he will then return to his home. as he feels the magic still coming from the crystal he doesnt want to risk using it at this time.

an excursion into the edge lands may be in order since it is where the crystal came from to begin with.
