Rannek found himself practicing with his sword.Heh,I can't give up fighting,helping villages.It's what I've been doing since I was only five.He walks towards the tavern to find Cyndril sleeping on the grass.He crouches,picking up a twig and pokes her with it."Hellooo,wake up Cyndil."He finds a bottle of elven wine and smiles.She drank until she passed out.Remarkable,but why does she keep sending letters to her loved one.Why not just set out to look for him?"You know Cyndil,it's not very good to just drink your sorrows away.Look at me,I lost my parents and watched them get killed by orcs.You don't see me drinkin away,well a few drinks here and there,but thats not the point.I learned how to fight and kill and now I'm a hunter."
Watching the sun bounce off theripples in the water, cyndil sits under a tree by the lake, a place Alli showed her not to long ago.She slowly eats an apple writing her words.
Dearest Azuros,
i have been praying night and day. Today i went to the temple north of trollsbane, the Eldan monastary,and even the houseof the druids for good measure. I have yet tofind a priest though. Most everybody unfortunate enough tobe cursed that day have transformed back into thier original appearances. They also say that they just woke up that way, and don't worry it will wear off. well, why did itwear off them but not me?
It breaks my heart to know that you could be home at any second, and yet the seconds keep flying by, with no sign of you. I find myself looking for you more and more. I can't even sew any more because of my frequent stops to look down the road. Can't you see this is killing me inside? Not the waiting, I would wait until the end of time, but the knowing you might be in danger or even dead, and that it is my doing.
your forever love, Cyndil
After Cyndl folds the paper and secures it to the birds leg, she lets him go, watching as he flies over the water.
"Oh to be a dove, and have to carry only the burden of parchment"
Cyndil talks wistfully to her self. She gets up and heads back to town to do some more sewing.

He hammers the burning hot metal,shaping it into the perfect sword.He had built his own forge and bought the tools.He's been working day andnight making the perfect sword and armour.the idea was for the equipment to be light as a feather yet as strong as gold.He got the strong part right but couldn't figure out how to make it light.Brother,if only you could see me now.
Without thinking about why she does it, cyndil walks to the depot and starts packing her bag with food and the few silver coins she has. After she goes to sit under the tree in front of the shop and writes another letter, trying not to cry,so as not to attract attention.
Dearest Azuros,
I can not take it anymore, I leave tonight. I have to know if you are still alive.I don't know how I will get any ship captain to take a sea fairing dwarf seriously, but I must at least try. I pray the five guide me to you swiftly, as I don't want to laeve Alli alone for to long. I also pray that somehow I can find some way to restore my natural figure.
If you should return while I am gone, please take care of Alli, as she is in a delicate state. The only reason I leave her is because you might be in more need than her, I pray that you are not. I have to be honest, I am scared, scared of what might happen, and scared of what might have already happened. please besafe. and know that I will always love you, no matter what happens, Cyndil
Cyndil stands and folds the paper in her hand. She holds it tightly to her chest as she walks to the inn to pack the rest of her things and get the last dove.

His forge was just a few yards away from the inn.He wiped away seat and looked up in the sky ,peering into the stars.He smiles as he just thought of a brilliant idea,I am such an idiot,why didn't I think it before.He finishes off a sword,it was 7 inches wide and 54 inches long,he put the burning metal into the ice cold water,steam came out of the bucket.The sword was amazingly strong and heavy.He set it down on a wooden table.
Rannek grabs the unfinishes armor.He reinforces the iron with the strongest metal ever known.After he finishes the leggings,he placed it all on the table.He draws a huge star in the middle,a circle around it.He places the equipment onto the center.After Rannek draws the similiar design but smaller ,in the shape of a cross;one at the top and one at the top then one on each side that makes the cross.He whispers words of power and life,his hand glow as he places it on the equipment.In a matter of moments,elctricity jumped from his fingers to the symbols and then it stopped.He tried out the equipment.He did it,the armour was as light as a feather but with a cost,both armor and sword are alive so it chooses who can weild it or not.

On her way out of the inn, Cyndil sees a brilliant flash of light. Curious,she goes to see from where it came. turning the corner she comes across a table with armor and strange drawings, behind the table stands Rannek, with a blade in his hands and a look of accomplishment on his face.
"Are you well? I saw a strange light..."
Cyndil walks up to the table and looks at the armor, with the tip of her finger she traces one of the crosses drawn on the tabletop.
"what is this? where did this stuff come from? Did you make it? And what are these markings? You don't plan on using that sword anytime soon do you?"
Cyndil gestures to the sword in Rannek's hand and smiles nervously.She shifts her bag to a more comfortable position and looks toward the road,as if looking for somebody.

"Hmm?Oh it's you Cyndil,lets see....Alright this is a forge where blacksmith's make armor weapons,or anything out of metal.Yes I did make this since I tried to makethe perfect blade and armor and now I did.The markings are a type of symbols that allow magic to travel through and object in order to enchant it.And about the sword....No I'm not going to use it any time soon."The blade made itself as hot as fire to burn Ranneks hands which it succeeded."Oww,that was not nice.What do you mean yes it was.Just because I said that doesn't mean I won't use you.Now you want a name?Fine then Dios,what about you ,you want a name too?No?See now why can't you be more like the armor.Because your a sword."he sighed then put the sword on the table
He faced Cyndil to see her holding a bag and looking down the road"Ahh,going somewhere are you Cyndil.Where are you going?Don't start Dios."he yells at the sword,pointing at it with a threatening finger

Cyndil turns around slowly with a look of utter confusion. She looks down at the sword then back to Rannek.Cyndil wrinkles her nose, trying to think if she just heard right. She looks back down to the equipment, and slowly backs away from the table.With her expression changed to one of concern, she talks in an even, calm tone
"i uh..i have to go ona trip...at sea..to look for a friend....are you sure your well?"
Cyndil furrows her brow a bit and tries to smile, managing to look more sick than anything. She swallows hard and backs up a few more steps. Cyndil looks to the road and quickly back to Rannek.

After the long time away from Gobaith, Azuros was finally returning. Everyday he could think of nothing but of Cyndil, even in his dreams all he could think was of her. It was painful to him being away for so long yet he had to go visit his homeland. Though the visit was happy in that he was able to see his family once more, it was filled with sorrow deep within. His heart aching to return to his love as soon as possible. In a few hours he would once again step on the familiar grounds of Gobaith. See his friends again after such a long time, and most importantly of all he would see Cyndil again.
Azuros paced around the small ship that was sailing back to Gobaith. He sighed heavily. "Not much longer until I see Cyndil again..." he said. The time seemed to flow slower than usual on the ship and every second passing was more painful than the one before it. Azuros went back down to his bed; sleep would not come to him.
After a few hours laying in his bed waiting for the ship to arrive, Azuros got back up and went back outside to look for any sign of Gobaith. As soon as he looked out ahead he could see the docks where he would land. A smile spread across his lips, he could think of only one thing, he only thought of seeing Cyndil again.[/i]

"right...alive, and I suppose you are the only one who can hear it talk?"
Cyndil shifts her bag again, eager to head off, and eager to get away from Rannek, She looks to the road again and actually starts to walk in the direction of the docks before stopping and looking back to Rannek
"well, good luck with your new friends, I really must begoing..."
Cyndil tries to smile again, but again fails and just sort of looks scared. She starts walking, not really waiting for an answer from Rannek, or his sword for that matter. Cyndil casts a few glances back, to make sure he doesn't follow,when she is sure she is a safe distance, she keeps her focus on the road, and what lies ahead. Would she be able to find a ship and crew willing to take her? If so would she even find Azuros? It didn't matter, she wouldn't stop looking until she found him or proof that he is dead. Cyndil has a tear in her eye as she prays for him to still be alright.
"i'm coming for you, just still be safe.."
Cyndil hangs her head as she continues to walk, also thinking of Azuros' reaction to her new body. She stares at her bare, dwarfish feet and sighs,
"it still doesn't matter, even if he doesn't want me like this i still have to know"

He sighs then looks back at the sword"Should have just stuck to heaviness.I think I know where she's going.Come on Dios we're goin to help her look for someone.Because she might get herself killed looking for the guy."Rannek finished puttin on the armour and had just strapped his sword on his back.He sprinted after Cyndil.
He reached her in a few minutes then said"I'm not the only one who can hear it you know.You could hear it to if you choose to,and it doesn't talk,it uses telepathy.If your going to look for that guy then I'm coming incase you get yourself killed.If he is alive and finds out your dead then he'll probably kill himself too.And that won't solve anything.he said smiling a little.

Cyndil looks up at Rannek and smiles faintly. Her eyes still full of tears but not really crying. She nods a little, accepting his kindness. Cyndil shakes her head trying to dispell the tears and puts on her bravest face she can manage.
"so, if we are going to travel together..are you going to introduce me to your..er.."friends"
Cyndil forces a laugh, but to Rannek, it sounds more like a choked sob.

He laughs a little"Friends?These are my equipment."He pulls out his sword and says"This is my sword Dios,Dios meet Cyndil.""Nice to meet you Cyndil."
"The armor,well the armour can't use telepathy with others.So then do you know where to look for him?or are you just gonna travel around the world looking for him?"
"The armor,well the armour can't use telepathy with others.So then do you know where to look for him?or are you just gonna travel around the world looking for him?"
Cyndil thinks for a moment and has a horrid realization.
"All I know is that he was on his way back, from his homeland by sea, but I know not how far he has gotten, or even what direction to start with."
Cyndil starts to cry softly, her eyes a deep green from tears. She stops walking, and stands in the road, lost looking. Her chest heaving from the sobs that escape her.
"He's lost...and I have no way to him,"
Cyndil wipes her eyes with the back of her hand and looks to the sky despairingly.
"what will i do now? I am cursed a dwarf and cursed in love"
Cyndil looks down to her shortened body and squeezes her eyes shut, shaking her head, trying to will the dwarfishness away.

Cyndil looks down to her shortened body and squeezes her eyes shut, shaking her head, trying to will the dwarfishness away.
Standing there with her eyes closed Cyndil hears the sound of somebody running up the road. She opens her eyes to move out of the way and has to close them again immediately.
"it can't be..."
She slowly opens her eyes again and just stares for a minute at the figure running towards her and Rannek.
"Azuros?...oh thank the gods, AZUROS!!"
Cyndil waves a hand at him and starts to run towards him, seeing the look on his face she stops again in the road, her face is red and her eyes are puffy from crying. She realizes that of course he is looking at her like that, she is a dwarf. She quickly tries to smooth her hair and wipes her face again with her hand.
"Azuros, it's me...Cyndil"
She looks at him with concern, on the verge of crying again, her lips trembling slightly with fear. Cyndil takes a deep breath and steadies herself for his reaction.

" I can't believe it's really you"
Cyndil looks at Azuros carefully, and starts to walk around him in a circle her eyes moving over his body checking for injury. As she walks to face him again, she is still crying, but now more from relief than fear. She looks up to him with hope in her eyes, and offers a weak smile.
"Tell me your happy to see me, even if I look like this"
She turns in a slow circle and looks back up to Azuros

Cyndil lets out a sigh and laughs through her tears, she jumps at Azuros, hugging him around his legs, and almost knocking him over. She quickly begins to tell him what happened, still holding him tightly, with no sign of letting him go. Her words are quick and somewhat unintelligable from her crying.
" I was coming out of the tavern, when all of the sudden i found myself to be an orc. I looked around and seen half the town in commotion, and all in different form. they were pleading with a man to change them back. The man did not, instead, he laughed and changed everybody into pigs. Then he dissapeared! We ran all over town in search of him to no avail. When i woke up the next morning, i was like this."
Cyndil pulls back slighty and looks up into his eyes, without letting him go. Her tears have stopped but her eyes are still moist with tears and dark green.
"I don't know if i will return to my old form again, nobody can find the man who did this. Some have been turned back already, and say it will wear off, but it has been to long I fear. There has bee rumors as how to reverse the curse but I have been too scared to try any of them but prayer."
Cyndil lies her head against Azuros, drawing him closer to her, holding him tighter than ever.

"Ahh,what to do now,we were about to go on a journey and it turns out he coomes back...All swell,that ends well."We'll do what you do best,either become black smith Alchemist or go hunt down any threat to any village."Rannek smiles as he turns around and walks back to his forge.He packs up everything into a small little cube that he puts into his pocket.A few hours later he and his forge had disappeared without a trace.The only thing that he left behind was a sword.
