A Cleric's Journey

Ch. 2 Meeting an old friend and a Journey into the Astral Plane

Today we wake up in a Hindu town where all of the people worship Bahamut. The God of good dragons and the wind. I've heard he is a dragon himself. I was sharpening my long spear. When I finished I came out of my room in an inn that had tons of paintings of Bahamut in the eating area. I saw a bard, so I walked to the table the bard was sitting at.

"How much for a song??" I inquire.

The bard looks up. The bard is my childhood best friend, Sora.

"Hello, Morgiana." Sora says. "Its been a long time."

"Yes, Sora it has been." I say. "How have you been??"

"I've been well." Sora says. "I've been on many journeies and have many songs of the great warriors to tell people."

"That's good." I say. "Have you a weapon??"

"My scythe." Sora replies with a smile.

Sora gestures to the corner with her head, and I saw a scythe with lightning dancing up and down the whole scythe.

"How did you get the lightning??" I inquire.

"Lightning struck it, and the lightning stuck on the blade." Sora replies simply. "I'm immune to lightning, because I had the lightning surge through my body when I touched the scythe."

"I see." I say. "Would you like to go on adventures with me and my group??"

"I'm always up for adventuring." Sora says.

Someone puts their hand on my shoulder, so I looked to see Brendon.

"Hello Brendon." I say. "This is my childhood friend, Sora. She would like to be in our group."

"Hello Morgiana and Sora." Brendon says. "What kind of weapon do you have??"

"I have a scythe with lightning dancing over its entirety." Sora gestures to the same corner.

Brendon looks at the scythe.

"I assume you're immune to lightning." Brendon says.

Sora nods.

"You can come with us." Brendon says. "I'm sure you can entertain us with songs from your past adventures, da??"

"Da." Sora says.

"Very good." Brendon says.

I hear the stairs creak, so I look at them to see Dan was descending them. He walks over to us and looks at Sora.

"Are you singing a tale??" Dan asks.

"No, but I will b e joining your adventure party." Sora says.

"I'm Dan and I'm a cleric." Dan says.

"Its nice to meet you Dan; I am called Sora." Sora says.

"Its nice to meet you too, Sora." Dan says.

Amadeus walks up to us and sits down beside Dan.

"A bard, huh??" Amadeus   asks.

"Yes." Sora says. "I am called Sora."

"Nice to meet you, Sora, I'm Amadeus." Amadeus says.

"Nice to meet you too." Sora says.

All of us got breakfast. I must have been starving, because I ate a lot. I look around at my comrades and smile. I could hear a ruckus outside, so Dan and I walked out of the inn to see a wolfish human being chased.

"What is that thing??" I ask.

"That, my dear Morgiana, is a wolfborn." Dan says.

A few of Dan's wolves lead the wolfborn to us.
