STOMP'S TALE by Stompstone I used to live in da Mountain.. We was a happy race.. buildin', singin', workin' twas the life lads an' lass.. twas the life... an' me was happy... me sister an' her little boy..we lived together.. her husband dyin' to a giant ambush sum years back.. he twas me best friend too... ::Eyes glint in anger, before he controls himself:: but dat's past even dis.. but den one day.. twas an army it seemed ta us.. Giants.. trolls.. Dey were all headin' fer the mountain.. an' those o' us in da mountain got ready fer battle.. to try an' save da mountain... ::Face turns ashen:: Buts.. we failed.. dere were too many.. we killeds many.. but dey just kept comin'... I wus standin' dere protecting me kin.. and den I gots whacked on da 'ead.. and inta the wall.. da giant though me was de'd.. be was wrong.. he dinna count on me hards head.. he moved towards me kin... an' we his back wus turned.. I got 'em.. nev'r had a chance.. after dat.. we saw a 'uge opening in da mountain dat the giants made when dey came in... we ran fer it.. ta get out o' the mountain.. We mades it out.. but dere wus just o' many outside.. as inside.. but fortunats'ly.. me used ta work as o' guard for da tunnels.. an me new where dey came up and outs.. so me wents to one.. wit' me kin tow.. and we slips on down dere... an' we's a gets outta the mountain... but when we leave da mountain.. de battle wus over an' we had lost.. and da butchering of our kin 'ad already started... ::Face turns even paler, his beard quivering in sadness and anger, shaking his head trying to lose the feeling, before losing control, an' he kinda shifts subjects, to try an' help:: I brought me Sister an' her little lad to a small settlement outside o' waterdeep dat our people were gathering ta.. an' from dem I head.. dat someone 'ere in Neverwinter 'ad passed da trial of da soulforger.. even though he twas rather young.. an' his name was Gathon.. once me 'eard dis.. I hads to come.. an' here I am... ::Sighs heavily, then munches on one of his favorite cookies from Luna's stash, silent, much like the stone that he bares it's name::
