| Ever since you were a child in the meager village of Mondale, you wanted to become a great Wizard and learn the great mysteries of the universe, such as what the last digit of pi is. The answer turned out to not be very interesting, but by that time you were a Wizard anyway. As you wandered the back alleys of Dropseat (and let's face it, most of that place is back alleys), a hand covered your mouth while a blade pushed gently at your ribs. You let yourself be dragged into a pitch-dark abandoned belfry. A sultry female voice introduced herself as Seashell Fear knife. She asked you to undertake a quest to recover the Poo-bah's lost budgie, Max. Reasoning it was the best quest you'd get until you leveled up a bit, you agreed to help. You were doing really well but then you wandered into a room totally full of ents, plus a mimic, which is weird because you would have figured they'd have killed each other. They made a pretty good attempt at killing you, though. Bruised but unbroken, you readied your bastard sword and marched forth into the darkness, where you were immediately captured by the Shadow Sorcerer Screamsun's army of bright-eyed dire dwarves. They hauled you before their master, but got bored and wandered off during his long gloating speech. Seeing your chance, you pushed the evil douchebag into his own vending machine, and escaped to claim your reward from the grateful people of Gallston.
