Laying in bed Alex could feel his whole world close in on him, for it was not too long ago he was imprisoned by the Gynks and yet again he found himself the wrong side of a cell. Standing up he began to pace back and forth thinking about Lura and Nicko and all that he had left behind.
Drawing a hidden dagger from his boot he walked to the wall and begins to carve various things into the rock wall.
After what seems like forever he stands up and takes a step back, looking at the short poem he had inscribed into the rock.

"I loved the child in her
so innocent and sweet
The mischief in her eyes
the blush upon her cheek
The tender way he spoke
that showed me that she cared
The touch of her warm hand
that gently touched my hair
The smiles that we shared
that filled my life with glee
For when I was with her
I found the child in me

But this story is not over
not my a long mile
you are no longer my woman
and you do not make me smile
you were so cold
almost like a blizzard
you broke my heart
and gave yours to a lizard "

almost finding peace at his words he laid back onto his bed and falls asleep.

Waking in the middle of the night Alex felt sick as the smell of death drifted through the window.
looking out he could see a small dead rabbit which has been beheaded, looking around Alex saw an old folded piece of cloth in the corner of the room, picking it up he carried it across the room and unfolded it, putting it up to the window to try and block out the smell he noticed a small bit of torn parchment.
Examining the small scrawled writing he began to read it aloud

With this note my tale be told
about a mythical blade
for this tale may seem as bold
but for many years the legend stayed

For those who can wield the blade of old
the story has not said
but may your own legend unfold
when you find Rhyddid

frowning Alex turns over the piece of paper to find more riddles

This blade has no peers
and has stood the test of time
i has searched for many years
but the blade has yet to be mine

Now i grow old and my time grows ever near
I pass this tale on to you
and may you find it at a fairies tear

Thinking for a moment Alex smiled at the words only to be startled by the jail door opening...

As Roland Ross walked in to tell Alex his fate, Alex could feel a wave of nausea come over him.
Will I die here? Alex thought, but after the brief conversation Alex was lead outside and set free being told "The Prince is merciful" Confused and bewildered about what just happened Alex ran as fast as he could not looking back.
After a brief encounter with Bindus and the towns fool Magnus Alex thought back to the letter he had read, suddenly like a bolt of lightning it hit him "Find it at a fairies tear... FAIRIES TEAR".
Almost as fast as he came Alex was gone, running for the east gate, seeing many faces but not stopping he ran all the way to the edge of the river and began searching.

After a day or maybe two Alex had lost hope, he had searched the area and even made a make shift shovel and dug most of the soil up.

Walking back slowly he pondered about the blade and smirked "How could I have been so stupid!".
