The Life and Times of Elis the Prodigy

They called him Elis the Prodigy. He was a human mage who came from a noble family in the Avery.

As a child, he showed enormous potential as a mage. He was tutored by the renown wizard Sta Sokeus, and he soon eclipsed Sta in skill and power.

When Elis was barely 6 years old, he defeated another mage in battle. At the age of 10, he fought in the Campaign.

Now, 25 years later, he sits before us, weathered by age and battle, slowly regaining a sense of self. A scar runs across his neck -- a dark memory of a time when someone tried to kill him.

He slowly begins to speak, as though unsure that the words are coming out of his mouth.

"This form -- this body that I am in... It is very uncomfortable. And smelly. Very smelly. It wears shoes?"

We acknowledge that we found his body without any footwear, and we gave him a pair that we found in the warehouse.

"Hungry. This body feels -- I -- I feel hungry."

Ryn generously offered to prepare a meal of Jambalaya for us. After eat up the food, Elis frown and said, "Something is wrong. But I do not know what it is. Something feels wrong." But he could not elaborate on this.

As we turned in for the night, we could he hear him sobbing to himself quietly.
