well I forget to put the title, here it is, and I changed 1 or two words... There when the "thing" ask to the gnome it should say "curious letle creature" instead of "Gnome"...

But this is the complete tale.
"Curious"
The small gnome prompted by his curiocity broke the seal and pushed the cover of vault.. He did not see or smelled neither he listen nothing to leave of this.. but he knew that someone had left..
A voice takes form directly in his mind... You wake up me, I dont know if this is wrong or right. I was resting for so long... I will concede you 3 answers in exchange for your service. What are you looking for?
"What is Magic?...
Interesting...
Magic is the true and mysterious form to make the unknown, the imposible... Real.
In this world my friend Magic doesnt exist, as you are supposed to know...
No other magic but the one you find in the open arms of a mother, in the joke of a friend, in the smile of a woman or in the shine of the moon.
Well, you always can fly to another world... using your mind.
But to do it, you must have imagination to see the invisible... The heart to fill it like true... And the corage to die a thousands of times...
And still enjoy it."
And again his curiosity carry him to ask..
He was too curious...
"Who am I?
I came with the calm before all ambush, I was the desolation in the field after every battle. Behind they were resting, all the fallen knights, I was there every winter, every night.
I was transmuting sadness in tears, life in dust, I transformed all light in dark, in the field of war. I stayed in the silence of the graveyard for years.
That was good for centuries, but I'm always in the ends of stories. Someone disturbed my dreams. May be I should let him live, Why I dont have a reason to give?
I'm walking again, and again none have something to bargain for. That's why.
I answered your question, and you will have to pay, when you are sure you are going to die, and seeing all your life through the window of your soul, I will take what is mine."
This time the gnome thought very well his next question... He was curious but carefuly as well... he chooses not to ask this time.
"You are an inteligent creature, you know I will not let you live if I dont owe nothing from you... And you decide not to ask, then... I respect you, keep your life curious little creature... "
The heart of the gnome continued to beat. He was right.
This time the 'thing' was who asked: "But tell me: As I said, I was resting for so long and I never saw a creature like you... What the hell are you?"
The gnome's answer was short - Who knows...? - Then he smiled for a moment and then he went away... To a land far, far away..."
