Chapter 1: The Underway
Terry waves good bye to Myrcury and Talya and is very excited to hunt the spider. He helps clean away the meal and heads back to his families burrow to think about what he might be able to do to fare better against the spider. That night he and his ma talk more with Wilda in burrower tongue. His Ma tells Wilda about the Proudfoot family and will relay with great pride how Grandma Proudfoots wagon had been attacked by goblins when she was young and how she had fended them off with bits of broken wagon wheel and knocked out their leader with her left boot. Terry will then talk to Wilda about how he hopes that they will start going on interesting adventures and will start teaching her some simple things she can scratch into the dirt to communicate with others. He will teach her:
<- something important is this way
/// three claw marks for an enemy
I one thing
II two things
II+ many things
The next morning Terry interprets first thing as after breakfast and I've had a chance to spike my hair. Terry will get up at dawn and will study the incantations to conjure mystical armor, summon a monstrous ally, sense magical auras, resist maledictions and shoot a ray of freezing air. He will kiss his ma on the cheek for a thick slice of bread with jam, Wilda will kiss her other cheek for an apple and they will quickly make their way to Kinders Apothecary. Terry will ask Kinder if he may loan an antitoxin and maybe even a flask of acid or alchemists fire to be returned if they aren't needed, Terry will accept without complaint if these aren't available. He then jogs off to the corner of Willow and shady, satchel bag bouncing and marsupial galloping at his heels.
DM note: Great post. Would be perfect if it was in present tense.
