Kaz, in life I have found torment within my mind as well, caused by a sadistic creature too. I don't know if my tale can even come close to comparing with yours, but I'll tell it anyways. He made himself as comfortable as he could. When I was but a young lad, my parents took a vacation to the city of Waterdeep. Apparantly someone took offense to this, and sent a group of assassins in the night to kill them. I watched as they were cut down, leaving me behind to deal with this myself. Then later on, I was engaged to be wed to another young elf named Jaclyn. She was a very beautiful mage, but on the eve before the ceremony was to take place a horrible turn of events happened. I had become an accomplished mercenary in my time with her, we were a grand team. Apparantly someone took us as a threat, and sent their best me to take care of both of us. They were Drow, and they hit while we were on our way home. I fought with my life: She fought and gave her life. I failed her and my family, they were all killed while I watched and allowed to continue on. I then was unable to deal with it, and now each night I hear their screams, I relive the battles that took them, I see the smug grins on their ugly Drow faces as they slaughter Jaclyn, I see the grim expressions on the assassins as they massacre my family! I can't escape them, there is no way! I had hoped that you could give me a way to redeem myself for my failures, however whether or not that is true is yet to be seen... Sephi turned away then, not wanting anybody to see the merceny do something that he never did and hadn't done in a long time: cry.
