The fugitive.

Had the walls eyes as well as ears this is what they would have seen.

A man, balanced upon a small pile of tradebars step off, his neck within a noose of his own fashioning. He bounced once, his legs flailing, obviously he had reconsidered the wisdom of suicide.

He kicked over the pile of tradebars in his panic. Skinny arms were unable to hold his own weight enough to keep him from choking.

His lips cracked and purple moved, and light shot forth from his forearm striking the ceiling, then his hand, then his own arm twice more before finaly hitting the rope, breaking it instantly.

The figure crashed to the floor, his head striking the pile of tradebars with a thud that would have sickened most, had they been there to witness it. But they were not.

The wall looked on wordlessly, as was its nature. Under its indifferent gaze, blood flowed over the tradebars.

Wake up Agrim, you cannot leave me here.

No.

I command you to awaken Agrim, I will not let your life slip away.

No.

You CANNOT refuse me.

Red tinged light interupted then magnified a pounding within Agrims head. His twisted hand rubbed crusted blood from out his eyes. A gummy mess was underneath, but that to was removed.

A broken rope high above him came into focus. Then so did the pain in his throat.

Ah yes.

I am still alive.

His left hand flared in pain. Why? oh, the wand. Two fingers missing now. Unfortunate. It seems aborted suicide still has a price. Agrim began to laugh, the crazed laugh of one who has been through to much.

The laughter became convulsions, until rolling over he vomited. Heaves rocked his battered body until it was empty. Eight fingers scattered the potion bottles until it found one marked with a healing rune. The finger stumps were washed with it, and the rest gulped down.

True thought returned, and once again he was in control of himself. Emotion departed, and plans were laid. His kit was gathered, and the room left. The only things left to show of his ordeal, was the hanging rope, a pool of blood, and two blackened and blasted fingers.

Agrim fell heavily, his energy drained, his will to fight on gone. Gossamar strands began to encircle him, and his vision.

A bitter end he thought.

He didnt feel the mandibles that began to drain him of blood, what he did feel was the aching pain of never being able to see the books again.

OOC!

Agrim died, a bored/frustrated solo death. I should have known better than to take a rp pc into a combat situation. (I do know better actually).

Oh well

The next pc awaits. Coming soon, the amazing adventures of...
