LOL :D


You were right: a wholesale, immediate ban was unachievable; but have I told you about my plans for a staged withdrawal....
 
*I've said it before and I'll say it again, never trust a merchant!*
'Yes madam, How may I be of assistance' *or should I say how can I help you lighten that bulging purse you're carrying* 'No don't say a word, I have just had some fabulous pieces arrive from the outer edges of the empire' *Junk I just made out the back room* 'Which I know will complement those beautiful eyes of yours perfectly'
*Well even untrustable perveyors of questionable goods have to make a honest living, don't they?*

So now you know my life and why I did what I did, many have called me hero, but now you now the truth, have I damned myself? Do you love me less? I guess that if my soul is granted the peace I crave, I'll never now. But if I'm damned as I suspect, then my tale may not yet be over....
 
Anthorn lunged for the crystal, the ground rumbled and shook, then with an explosion of white light, the world ended and reality shattered.
