Audinor the Hunter - Page 2

Message to Advisor

Darius, my friend, I must inform you that this rumor I am dead is untrue. However, I did die. Twice in fact. I had done my best to avoid combat, but still wound up in fights, & found myself dead. I have struck a deal with the reaper, but I fear it will come back on me at some time.

Hunter Audinor

Audinor began to feel as though the world in front of him had become impossible to traverse. As days passed without offers of work or training, with no opportunity to adventure, with the weight of two visits already from the grim reaper, he became less hopeful. Eventually he started to feel a crushing weight of guilt, realizing he could never be the heir his father deserved.

Audinor began daily to arrive early on at the tavern. Never taking a challenge or asking about work to be done, but gaining some popularity with his consistent willingness to buy able and gives wine for any around him. Merryment should have been his, but always a cloud hung over him.
When finally the rumors about a half - sister reached his ears, Audinor knew he would never be, had never been, the heir his parents had been told of in prophecy. He took to finding reasons to buy or steal potions of healing, imbibing them not for need to heal, but for the brief, warm feeling of worth and strength it infused within him.
One night, alone, tired, and miserable... Audinor slipped off with the effects of a strong healing potion and a stronger incense of sleep. The reaper almost felt pity in taking him, but knew it would be the best possible outcome for a half-elven buy whose soul had slipped through his fingers months ago.
