The farmer fell on his knees and looked up at the strangers with amazement. Tears formed in his eyes as he said "Please save my child and wife, I will give you everything I have, just save them" while grabbing onto the man dressed in a white robes hand.

The man dressed in black leather grabbed the farmers shoulder and pulled him off the ground. All of them glazed at the woman and a smirk formed on the man in leathers lips. He looked at the farmer and said "we can save your child and wife, but everything comes with a price".

"I don't care please save them" the man sulked while water dripped from his eyes. The man with the cloak walked over to the woman as the man in black leather said "as you wish". In the cloaked man's bony hand was small ray of light. He placed his hand on top of the woman's belly and a glowing light surrounded the room.

The man in white said "You wife and child should be fine now, but remember in 16 years we will collected the price that you must pay to save your wife and child". The farmer nodded and said "of course I will do my best to get enough money to pay you back for your kindness".
