THE FERRYMEN 

A coin for your troubles

 

  

On our ventures across the land, we came across a small shack, filled by mortal men and women. They wore themselves in riches, garbed in the finest luxury, and so, we took from them. 

 

There was one man - a particularly weird fellow, who was robbed. He did not have much on him, but he had an interesting journal about his life, which I thought would be good to publish to the world. 

 

Please let me know what you think.

 

King Sugarfoot III,

King of the Ferrymen, 

Lord of the Halflings

“lorcan´s personal journal and inner thoughts

---------------------------------------------------------

the Maria situation:

 

we met when we were still children and got along quite well. then everything changed when we were 18 and 19..she tried to kiss me and ever since then she has had me wrapped around her finger.

 

i was so stupid, blinded by love. i would do anything for her approval, just to see her laugh..be happy. after Ma died i was a total wreck, and i took it out on maria in the duel we had..i shouldnt have broken the rules and scarred her..my grief took over. ive regretted that decision ever since, i guess that is where the problem started. of course her father, Demitrey Denodado got mad that i had broken the rules of duelling and i had to pay a fine to be ''forgiven''. and as the stupid boy i was i decided to ask the same man if i could court his daughter. in the end i was only banished from hyspia for even asking.

 

we kept in contact via letters for a while..me and maria. she said that she didnt want to see me get hurt but..im starting to believe that isnt the truth. maybe she was just playing with my feelings all along. when the whole ''norland stole our crown'' debate came up i totally lost it, and once again my temper took over kissing maria right there in the square, luckily her father didnt see it..but if i knew that my feelings would cause this much trouble...i would have just kept quiet and let the feelings fade away...now im forced to watch maria from a distance, but maybe it is for the best...that everything turned out like this. it would work anyway..then, about a year ago i met her again, and she asked if we could have a ''no attachments'' reletionship...thinking back on it now i should have rejected the offer, but my love for her is to great...too passionate. people say that love is the most powerful thing their is but, i see it more as a curse.

 

i cannot have her to myself, i can never make her mine...why do i feel like this? why do i keep on pining after her? what is the point? Maria also says that her father wants me dead, ill say let him try. nothing good as ever happened to me besides my love for maria, and even this has ended up hurting me more than any scar could. Farian told me to write things down whenever i feel overwhelmed about all this. honestly it is good advice. but i dont see how it can solve this problem. i just...i want people to stop blaming me for things, accusing me of being something that im not. im just a man, who happened to fall for someone special.”

To all descendants, and others, ensure that you are not caught with your journal filled with steamy thoughts. I have a few more that I will be publishing from those we robbed, and if there is good public demand, I shall make it a series.

 

Farewell to you all!

"I'm... forced to watch Maria from a distance!? This journal is as sticky as a piston..." Thought the Luraqi Warlord, Daahd'Lur, a throw away line for certain.

Brôk carefully hides his booklet filled with scandalous alchemical recipes and juicy rituals. He couldn't risk the Ferrymen getting their hands on his deepest secrets! 

[Orlanth 4667]

Calias asked for someone to read the journal aloud to him. "You can stop now." He said at about the half way point.

[AntiSociety 710]

Please Maria if you’re reading this come back we can start a family together. This husk of a man cannot bear the consequences of his actions.

Abzaghuth seemed awfully perplexed at the weird content found within the journal.
The only words he could blurt out from beneath his black ferrum helmet are "Wub.. da.. zkah..."

He desperately yelled out in cloud temple "ANYBODY KNUW A MAGHRIAH?!"

[ScreamingDingo 20568]

Reginald Napier the III looks upon this missive eagerly, the esteemed author of various titles such as, "The Forbidden Snaga, Crown or Cuddles and Stuck between an Ostrich and a Hard Place" almost salivates at this sudden notice. A famous story, a plot-point as juicy and filled with such enjoyment for his potential viewers. His readers in Haense and Petra have declined in the recent years, and the longing love of one to Norlandic Royalty seemed like the perfect way to re-emerge into the literary scene.

With such, he snatched a copy of the Sugarfoot's notice and began to plot his next novel.

[Ryanark 2738]

"Where's the second edition?!" Ahnakriel, the immortal dragonkin screamed in anguish within the unfathomable depths of his cavernous abyss of a lair. The narrative and its abominable suspense was an affront to his mind, an intricate labyrinth of arcane knowledge and forgotten sorceries, reeled in latent horror.  

 

"WHERE IS THE SECOND PART?!" It screamed with a roar that echoed through the shadow-haunted recesses, the Azdrazi's fury manifested through a ravenous clawed hand ripping through a stack of old books.

 

The walls of the cavern, carved by eons of his silent brooding trembled as though beset by some cosmic upheaval. His eyes, like twin suns of eldritch fire burned with a fury not born of mere mortal irritation yet of an ageless indignation that transcended time itself; smoke billowing in boiling anger from his serpent-like nostrils. At once he left the chamber to embark upon a search for the sequel.

"Tia?" A certain Hyspian womans brows arched at the familiar names in this journal. She shuddered, gaze panning across to her brother. "Fae, look at this!"

Lorcan Sutharlainn thought to himself that he could die from embaressment as his journal had been published for all to see, even if this was a part of his past that would apparently still haunt him until the Day he died

"I am going to tease her so much" The Hyspian royal would prepare some funny quips to levy at his cousin.

[Muckelpu 291]

Solveigh Sutharlainn tore the copy into shreds as she finished reading. "I knew it, you idiot fell for that woman with the face of an angel. You really couldn't keep away from her brother could you. Am I glad that I never fell for anyone." The woman glanced then towards to her sleeping twins. "I'm glad I don't remember their father either, less troublesome."

Amako was passed this particular journal, she eyed the pages with some shred of pity. "Oi, oi... Poor soul. Perhaps they should learn to play Go..."

[DahStalker 3692]

A ginger haired elf named Lhoris reads the missive with a few nods. “Respect. Maria isn’t a gold digger.” They said aloud, pondering for a moment or two. “They are a GOAL digger!!” Lhoris respects a good hustle.
