Sanibonani! Umlingo at your service. Who has the pleasure of meeting the future 'King of Knaves'? Krystallia holds many secrets and with secrecy comes hidden treasure. No, I'm not talking about mere gold, but magical amulets, weapons which are attuned to the elements, and other items that have been previously seen as myth. Unfortunately, in the search of one particular lore, I find myself captive by a beautiful, but intimidating, noblewoman of the Sumerki Elves. How can I rid myself of an enchanted tower? Alas, I must shake the hands of a Teufel and become indebted to a devil!

Umlingo the Rogue Warlock

Mirror grant me permission to pass beyond your looking glass. The spell circles through my mind. As I fall into the mystical object, I find nothing but darkness. I float in suspension as the mirror decides where to lead. The empty space feels cold. I cross my arms and shake. 'What's happening?' I ask. One would believe that a portal would work instantaneously; however, that does not seem to be the case for the Sumerki mirror.


"Wo willst du hin?" Hageleis's voice echoes across the void.


I close my eyes to focus on his words. A tear falls from my face. The droplet disappears into the unknown. I sigh as I contemplate my response. 


"Anywhere but Andoria," I say with a sense of sorrow. "There's no reason left for me to stay."


I think on my life up until this point. 'What's past is passed.' I need to move forward. Especially, since I must discover how to repay my debt to the Teufel. I laugh half-heartedly. As my arm throbs, I wince in pain. 


"Hey, can you heal me?" I ask out loud.
