The Mystic's Awakening

[HoudiniDerek]

Guang groaned when he saw the man rise from the water. Could he never come here in peace? It seemed his life had been defined by bad moments at this cursed place. He sighed, dropped his pack, and drew his sword.

"Dragkloken?" Guang asked in one of the more common Gnome tongues. The figure stopped, but did not answer. There seemed to be some sort of trance over the figure, but it was hard to tell. The man was tall and covered with the filth from the bottom of the lakes, but nothing more could be seen.

"Dragkloken?" Guang tried again.

[Avalon Silvasti]

(sorry it's been a while I've been super busy)

Avalon continued to back up as the human looking creature steel slowly towards her. "Guang.... any ideas who or what this thing is." she continued to step back until her heel got caught in a tree root causing her to lose her balance and fall back. At the sudden movement the creature's head shot up. Eyes black as the abyss locked onto her as his slow labored steps started to quicken. As the creature opened its mouth to show two rows of doubted teeth that slowly resembled daggers water poured from it. The creature roared a watery horrid sound and charged Avalon. Moving quickly Avalon freed her heel from the root just in time. As her foot shot back the sword came down with deadly aim.
