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

The heat rises as the battle between man and fiend wages on. The bearded man goes to slash the Kleiner Teufel. As the knife swings downward, the fiend dodges the attack. Purpur hisses and cuts the man's armed hand. In the frenzy, my heart pounds faster as I prefer the fight to end. 


"Stop standing there and help!" the woman demands.


Frozen from indecision, I watch as the fiend topples his foe with a broad tail whip. The bearded man falls onto the table. His weight busts the furniture in half. Wood splinters and the man receives some cuts.


"Honey!" His wife rushes to the man's side. 


I can see the hatred and fear in their eyes. Purpur stands in an offensive position. My stomach boils from within. 'Am I experiencing the fiend's anger?' I pat my face. If I summoned him, then is it possible to send Purpur back to Pandemonium?
