The Dark Age

Sha'ik Fra'altz

Walking down the dirt pathway from one town to another, Sha’ik was hungry, and could hardly wait to arrive at the town up ahead. He could see it far off on the horizon; he estimated it would be at least another 2 hours walk.
Sha’ik slowly, but safely walked down the hillside, he was looking around him, taking in his surroundings and studying them. There was a farm to his left and one on his right. Though, the farm on his right looked like it had been abandon for years upon years. “I wonder way one would leave their farm? Maybe they were killed? Hmm, interesting, I also wonder why the farmers across the road haven’t clamed it?” He thought to himself as he continued to walk down the hill.
Sha’ik heard a load roar over to the right. “What on Earth was that?” He thought while looking over to the farmhouse on the right. With another roar, fire came out of one of the windows on the house. “I don’t like the sound of that!” Looking around for somewhere to hide but saw noting big enough to hide him.
With a loud crash, one side of the house broke away, with a Fire Golem appearing. “A Fire Golem? What is it doing out here? Now I know why that farm is abandon.” The Golem looked over at Sha’ik and started to run for him. “Oh my! It must have seen me, I got to hide, but where?” Looking around him, once again noticing there was no place to hide. “Looks like I am going to have to fight this Golem.”
Sha’ik raises his staff in the air towards the Golem, as the Golem moves in closer. “You shall not bring any more terror to this place!” The staff started glowing white, and small white sparks flicker around Sha’ik. A large bolt of lightning shoots out of the staff and just barley misses the Golem.
Sha’ik raises his staff again, but the Golem makes it to him. Sha’ik looks up at the 9-foot tall Fire Golem, and swallows hard. As fast as a blink of light, the Golem hits Sha’ik throwing him at least 15 feet backwards. Sha’ik retaliates bringing his staff to bear, shooting another lightning bolt at the Golem. This time it hits its target in the arm; dissolving it in to fin air.
As the lightning hits, the Golem roars out loudly and runs at Sha’ik. The Golem opens its mouth and breaths fire. Sha’ik quickly moves out of the way, and shoots another bolt of lightning at the Golem, hitting his leg. The Golem falls to the ground in another loud roar, and then looks at Sha’ik as another lightning bolt shoots from the staff hitting the Golem in the head. The blast dissolves the beast.

Looking at his cloak, Sha’ik sighs out loud. “Damn, now I got to get a new cloak, this one is all burnt.” Sha’ik then continues down the path on towards the town.



OCC: I am sorry for the long dely in my post. Real life has been a bitch latly. Anywasy I am still in this, so don't worry. :)
 
Von Shimlock

The Sun was disappearing under the horizon, the sky was a dark orange color with a large flock of birds flying through the sky like a fire through a hot summers day. Von, had only immerged from the forest only moments ago, he chuckled to himself as he remembered a hopeless attempt by some Thief’s to steal his Ring. “Fools!” He thought to himself as he grinned in shire glee of delight of disposing of the pair. “Too easy, I need a challenge.” Von stealthily moved along in the shadows as he continued to proceed closer toward what seemed like a town far of in the distance. “Perhaps I may find something there worth my time, I doubt it though”
