Submitted: 21 July 1997 Salutations With a...Yak? by Kamchak Storm-Hammer (The Crossing, Zoluren)Here's another tale that I don't quite remember the timeframe of. Things were hectic and I'm no good with dates. Guess I been whacked in the head one too many times. Anyways, in my very early days I was a War Mage. Don't ask me why, I was just amazed by the magiks that the students of Gauthus wielded. Now I consider them party favors, but that's another discussion altogether. Anyways, I was walking down towards Town Green with my friend Elriic and his wife, who's name slips my mind at this time, started with a C, I remember that much. Anyways, I was walking down Via Iltesh empty handed, when all of a sudden I felt some strange magics at work and I looked down to see a yak, one of the beasts of burden those rich traders use, in my right hand. Elriic stared at me in awe. Well, I wasted no time and summoned a Great Mage. I got none other than Shalnhh. Who appeared and chuckled at me. He took the yak from me and saluted me with it (that's one strong mage) before vanishing. I looked back to see Elriic rolling on the ground in laughter. I grumbled and just kept walking towards the green. Strange times, those early days were. |
