I blame the frog...

by Kupo

A random old man on the road told me a story of a magical frog that grants wishes. He mumbled a lot it may have been either three or free wishes. Either way the story was definately worth the 400 Gil I gave him (Not like that stupid Wand of Bear Talking). Such a happy man he was, laughing all the way into the distance. As luck would have it later that day, there in front of my path was a frog. I was sure this was the frog that the crazy old man was talking about. Me and Patrice looked at each other and a fire burned in our eyes. We would claim our undetermined number of wishes! I strapped Patrice in and gave chase.
 
The frog was a slippery adversary, any move I made he matched in reverse. Bobbing and weaving all of my advances eventually leaving me into an overgrowth. He was within my grasp until my hood got snagged on some kind of bramble. Once I worked it loose the frog was no where to be seen. I needed to get this repaired, as luck would have it I had wandered my way close to the town of Lindow. How very fortunate.
 
Less than an hour later I arrived at the front gates, my stomach was rumbling but I had to get my hood fixed first of all, people look at me as a white mage for guidance and stuff apparently. Who's gonna trust a white mage with a tear in his hood?! NO ONE I SAY!
Anyway, I began my search looking for a tailor or maybe even a skilled butcher could get the job done I thought. When out of the blue I was being wrestled by 3 men in grey cloaks. I didn't know how to react, so as Zef taught me I used my words first and I yelled at them a bit. That wasn't working so I invoked the word of radiance and burned them. This didn't work either. It just irritated them a bit. First the frog and now this. Aw Geez.
 
Turns out being a captive wasn't that bad, I had somewhere nice to sleep. It was warm, oh and they fed me! How nice is that? Plus there was someone always on guard, y'know to make sure I dont get kidnapped again or something. The guy next to me was tied up too apparently he was the owner of the windmill, he was really nice. He must have been concerned for my safety as he was always telling me to "Shush" or "Go to sleep". What a nice guy.
 
I woke up in the morning after a great sleep apparently they are going to take me somewhere for a large reward. I might have underestimated the situation. Plus I'm getting bored now and my new friend Dan the windmill owner has stopped playing games with me. Then I saw them my luck came through for me again it was Zef And Mister Rein. They didn't look so happy to see me when I shouted across to them. Aw Geez.
 
After a little bit of a scuffle one of the captors gained a hole where he shouldn't have from Mister Rein and he got characteristically angry at another. I managed to persuade the other gentleman to lay down his arms while he still had hands to hold them. They all surrendered and gave us some information on who they were. I kinda zoned out at that bit when it got all talky. It was BORE-RING. If I wanted to listen to lectures and things of importance I would have stayed at the Academy. There was so much I wanted to say to Zef but he was never really good with words unless it involved birds or jumping. Truth is I really missed him and the hardest part of leaving the academy was leaving behind the only family I've ever really known. I guess I was happy to see Mister Rein again too I suppose.
 
We didn't really have the time to enjoy the reunion but I was lucky again that they found me and I'm lucky to be able to use all this to stick with them. Apparently we are heading to Padstow for something, I'm pretty sure I'm extremely important. Mister Rein remarked that he could get us free passage on ship to Padstow. Other that being captured and smuggled into a windmill basement and held against my will it's been a really lucky day. Aww Geez my hood is still all bent up outta shape. I'm going to finally get my hood fixed or no one will take me seriously.
 
Just outside of the port there was a tall elven warrior who introduced himself as Gilgamesh. He was beautiful and graceful in every movement he made. He wanted to challenge us a duel, he was so confident that he wanted to take all 3 of us on at once (And Patrice). Zephyr and Rein leaped into battle and I stood fearlessly at the back lending them aid where I could. I'm a little outta practice though and we lost. It was all over so quickly, we didn't stand a chance. I felt so responsible, I wasn't good enough again. I promise I'll do better next time Zef and Mister Rein. I promise.
 
After a long strange day we decided to rest up before the flight was due. We dropped by the Ruby Rat for some food, I had the most amazing Frog Stew it almost made me forget that I might have concussion. Anyway we hopped on a flight outta here the Captain (A real one unlike mister Rein) was real nice and let us on board. Biggs was his name I think. I dare say I'll be back to my own business before the end of the year.
