Anton Thacker, the poor thirteen year old who lives in the tavern, was felling a pine tree, he could

hear the thwack, thwack, thwack of the other woodcutters as they chopped and felled trees. Antons

face was covered in wood and dirt, he was used to it, used to being covered in debris. After four

more hours of this continuous work the day was up. Anton started slowly walking back to the lumber

mill where he would collect his pay, fifteen crons every two weeks, not much but enough, because

fifty driks equals one cron. So when Anton got back he collected his pay went to the tavern and fell

onto a stool, hark the bartender asked the usual?.

Anton answered with a slow nod, his usual was a big glass of whiskey. After that Anton payed the

bartender and went up to his room. His room was the tiniest of them all, it had a small bed and a

dresser thats it, Anton chose this one because its the cheapest, twenty five driks a night.

When Anton woke up he went to the lumber mill and collected his axe and two man saw then

headed out to his new designated area to mill. On the way he felt like he was being watched, like

eyes were watching him in the bushes, or maybe the trees. He decided he would do a bit of

adventuring after work, so four hours later he carefully went back the way he came, and looked

around until he found something laying in the middle of the track, a piece of parchment. On the

parchment it had a form of directions, to somewhere. So Anton being the curious boy he is decided

to follow them, he followed them for about an hour then he decided it was Ludacris, just idle

ramblings someone did in there spare time and carelessly dropped them. So he decided to lay back

on the rock ledge behind him. As he lent back he fell back into a hidden cavern, it was lit with

torches. And finely hewn out of stone as if a master stonemason had taken several years to shape

and carve the glossy walls and floor. The most strange thing was that the furniture looked as if it had

been used regularly, because there was no dust buildup on the furniture. It was then and only thendid he notice him, he was a giant man, the size of a baby fire drake, maybe even bigger. But Anton

only then recognised his battleaxe it was taller than Anton. so youre da one ive herd so much

about? said the man in an accent Anton did not recognise.
