The sad story of Livitus

A boy was born to a modest family, neither well off nor especially put upon. This boy's only wish was to meet the heroes of old, like those he had read of in books, had heard sung in fairy tales and stories. The boy had little taste for money, and while he enjoyed good food and strong drink, neither was seen often in his household, and so he did not want for them.

When he had come of age, he took a job as a dockhand on a transport frigate making a circuit of the border skies. He learned more stories, but none enough to satisfy him. Hard times struck him as he aged. His frigate was beset with misfortune, racked with tempestuous storms, ravaged by colourful wildlife and eventually struck down when it veered too close to an engagement of pirate and royal guard fleets. The boy made it to rock by determination and his fair share of suspicious undertakings.

It was weeks soon after the boy's nineteenth birthday that he met his destiny. Sailing with a brigand crew, he raided a temple. The priest of the temple, a man neither pious nor exceptionally faithful, tore down the brigands until at last there was only he and the boy. Here, Livitus tells of the Apparition.

Time stopped as the priest raised his blood-stoned fist against the boy. The boy extracted himself from the priest's grasp, scrambling back in fear. A figure in the shape of a woman stepped from the shadows behind the priest. She was pale as parchment with thick coils of hair like stripped leather.
