8. The Story of Vurtne
**********************************************************
He opened his eyes... The last thing he remembered was the sword that ended his life. He awoke with only a few limbs attached. He decided to climb through the nearby corpses attaching other limbs to himself and using his frostspells to freeze them together. He remembered being a mage once.. very strong and powerful. But glimpses of his memory were gone in his sadness for the way he knew he was.
He decided to call himself Vurtne, he remembered an old friend with
that name, and he couldn't remember his own. He started living his life
as a beggar, not remembering much of anything. Most figured he was
missing half his brain. But then he was found and enslaved by the
scourge in Silverpine Forest, they were minions of Arugal. They captured
him and beat him daily for weeks without feeding him, trying to get
information about Sylvanas. Finally they realized how stupid he was so
they planned to kill him. As one of them was making the final blow
to end his life forever a cat pounced on the scourge from nowhere and
arrows went flying, killing them all. Vurtne had been saved by a
mysterious Blood Elf hunter named Josnn.
Vurtne and Josnn became quick friends, killing the rest of the
scourge in the cave. Vurtne was amazed at Josnn's prowress, thus he
wanted to grow strong and so he soon did. He now lives as a slave in Silvermoon.
When he was a slave for so long by the scourge, he
believed that was what he was meant to be. So he looks for the strongest
around and begs to be their slave. And when he is not being used by his
Master, he is training to try and impress him.
Vurtne talks like a child and acts very young, even though he was
once wise beyond measure... Perhaps some day he may find himself in the
good graces of the gods and a miracle will happen, that he may someday
regain at least a bit of knowledge of his past... Perhaps someday he
will become one of the strongest mages to walk these lands...
