At the end of the river near Bell Village...

Buck was meditating in the middle of the river to regain the used magic energy.

Buck (Sweating and heavy breathing): ...

???: Young wizard...


Buck in alert turned around multiple times to see where the voice came from.

Buck: Whos there?!

???: Water wizard...

Buck, shot a water beam to where the voice came from, to his surprise there was nothing.

???: Young wizard, do not fear, thus I am the spirit from thy river, through the eras your kind had different names for thy ones like me, Water elemental, Undine, Nymph...

Buck in astonishment couldn't believe what his eyes were viewing, one of the mythological creatures from this fantastic world, a Nymph.

The creature hugged the Mage from his back, thus pushing him into the water.

Buck trying to escape the creature's grasp, which was trying to drown it, did not succeed.

Nymph: Fear not, Young wizard, for thus I will make you regain all of your used magic energy.

Buck no longer tried to free himself but instead, accepted the creature offered.

The Nymph started seeing Buck's history and all the memories he had.

The Nymph saw Buck as a kid, he was happy in his life, his parents had the same magic he used, water magic, although they were less powerful than him.

Buck had an innate ability to control water, more than his parents, or anyone in the Village.

This, however, was feared in the town, being too unstable to control, his father did what no other father would ever do.

Buck's father tried to drown his own son in the river, that now he was meditating in.

But Buck fighting for his survival using the power from the river managed to push his father in it, his father, struggling to get out of the river force hit his head in a rock, leaving him unconscious and falling into the sea, which later was found dead...


From between the trees, a voice was heard...


Mask: Buck? are you around here bud?

Nymph: Our time has ended for now, for shall we will meet in the future, I will love it too.

Buck (Trying to talk but underwater): (bubbles)

Nypmh: (giggles)

The Nymph disappeared, Buck, still in the water, realized, now that the nymph is gone, he can no longer breathe underwater. 

Buck (struggling to get out of the river): (splash noises)

Mask: Buck? Buck!

Mask ran towards Buck to aid him

Mask: How can you drown in water?? You are a water wizard!

Buck: (heavy breathing) I thi- (Cough) I think I might got too into my meditation (cough)



Once again in the Bell Village tavern...

Joaquin: (Yawn)... dang I truly want to sleep right now... wait... I got an idea

Abdoul & Orion were arguing on what is the best usage for Crowns

Opal was sleeping hard on the bar counter

Joaquin (putting his coat on Opal): Hey abdoul!

Abdoul: What! can't u see the are in the middle of something here?

Joaquin: I bet you can't stay all night up doing guard

Abdoul: What?

Orion: Hah weakling

Abdoul: Whatcha say?


Joaquin (going upstairs): I will give 5 crowns to whoever wins this night

Abdoul & Orion: DEAL!

Joaquin (whispering): This is the actual best usage for crowns (chuckles)

Suddenly a soaked in water wild Mask and Buck appeared

Joaquin: Guys! What happened? did you restore all of your energy?

Buck: We can say that extreme meditation takes you places...

Mask: You tell me how can a water mage drown.

Joaquin: Ah, yeah, ok, I will be heading towards bed now, later.



The next morning...

Joaquin: (Yawn)... oh everyone is awake

Icarus: Come we are discussing something important, we have new information

Joaquin: On what?

Icarus: The exiled...
