After extricating yourself from the ropes, you climb down the tree, taking the backpack and short sword with you. You are slightly hungry and wonder where you might find food. After a moment, you see a stream nearby and make your way to it, in order to wash up and fill your water skin.

The water is cool and inviting. What will you do?

As you are bathing in your clothes, you look back to see two people standing curiously on the shore.

A tall man and a dwarvish man. The man is tall and dark haired with eyes that look black even in the sunlight. He is incredibly attractive. The dwarvish man has the dark brown skin of one of the Lillitians. They are staring at you with what appears to be awe.

"A Solarian!" The Lillitian shouts with excitement. "Greetings! I am Kanow, priest of Solaron, and this is my friend Talandor."

"I believe my name is Ramas," you respond as you wade from the water.

"Are the tales about Solarians true?" Talandor asks curiously.

You answer

There are many tales. I suppose we will have to see."

The man raises a curious brow and stares at you. Impulsively, he steps forward and reaches out to touch your hair.

What will you do.

As he gets close enough, you catch his arm in your hand and give him an insulted look. He looks down at the ground and moves away. "Are you invulnerable like they say?" He questions.

What will your answer be?
