    Vullem stared longingly at the bobber of her fishing pole. Not a single fish had nibbled her line all day, and the sun was sinking into the horizon. The female thinks softly to herself.
    "Look what I have been reduced to...a vagabond that can't even catch a fish! Why did things have to turn out this way...if it weren't for those gredy elders of mine I'd never be here! I swear one day I'll get them..."
    The 'dragon clenches and unclenches her multi-hued paws before calming down. Latently knowing that she'd have to get her food someway, Vullem reaches for her harp lying by her bag and fishing pole. She strums the beautifuly crafted instrument, as she tries to remember the words of a song she was taught long ago. Once she remembered the lyrics, Vullem began to sing and play, hoping that a passer-by with extra food might spare a morsel for a starving musician.</font>
     
  2. <font color='#CCCCCC'>Kazul was walking down the piers that day. He knew he was there for a reason and someone would be waiting for him. He was not sure who or why exactly. He knew this because he was a seer and once in a while he would have a vision.
        He was looking over the docks and boats with his white eyes and didn’t see any thing. He then heard music coming from further down. He followed the music to a female pendragon playing a harp. It was very nice music.
    <span style='color:"EEEEEE"'>“Hello stranger."</span>
    He said to her hoping she wouldnÂ’t mind. He then took a seat beside her.</font>
     
  3. <font color='#8D38C9'>Vullem stoped playing once she noticed the other pendragon. She smiled happily before making conversation with the male,
    "Hello to you too, stranger. What brings you to these parts?"
    As she waits for his reply, Vullem started up the song again.</font>
     
  4. <font color='#CCCCCC'>Kazul smiled at the reply.
    <span style='color:"EEEEEE"'>“Well in a way that is a long story but to make it short I will say that I’m a seer and I had a vision that someone would be here. I then heard your music and came this way."</span>
    Kazul said with a smile. Then he looked down at the fishing pole.
    <span style='color:"EEEEEE"'>“Any luck?"</span></font>
     
  5. <font color='#8D38C9'>Vullem's eyes widen in shock at the other 'dragon's reply,
    "Really, you're a seer? So am I! This is odd..."
    Her voice fades off as she checks the fishing line. An unhappy look comes to her features as she looks at the untouched bait. The female reels the line in, on the verge of giving up. Suddently Vullem feels a tug on the end of the line. She cries out with joy while fighting with the hooked fish.</font>
     
  6. <font color='#CCCCCC'>He saw her eyes open wide when he said he was a seer.
    <span style='color:"EEEEEE"'>“Yes I am a seer…"</span>
       He didnÂ’t have to finish before she cried out and stated fighting with whatever was on the end of her line. He stood up and put his paws on pole to help bring the thing in. It must have been pretty big because it was putting up a good fight.</font>
     
  7. <font color='#8D38C9'>Vullem gritted her teeth, thinking,
    This fish is putting up a good fight, even with the other pendragon helping me! It must be huge! My luck has returned!
    She braced herself, digging her feline claws into the wooden planks of the dock. Pushing her body as far as it could go, which was not all that far. Gathering all of her sparse strength, Vullem half-leaped, half-flew backwards. The last thing she saw was the glint of scales against the failing sun, before her skull crashed against the pier and she was knocked out cold.</font>
     
  8. <font color='#CCCCCC'>Kazul was pulling as hard as he could but they still didnÂ’t seem to be getting anywhere. He then saw the other go flying.
    <span style='color:"CCFFFF"'>Oh no. That canÂ’t be good.</span>He thought
      He tried to put the pole down but knew there was no way he could keep it. As soon as he let go it went flying into the lake.
      He ran over to the ‘dragon who was out cold. He picked her up and moved her to a more comfortable spot hoping she wouldnÂ’t mind. He took at look to see if she was still breathing. He realized that he did not know her name.
    <span style='color:"EEEEEE"'>“Are you okay?"</span>
      He gave her a small shake. He then remembered that he had broth some food with him that had a pretty strong smell. He took it out of a small bag that he had on his back. He first smelled it to see if it still was strong. It sure was!</font>
     
  9. <font color='#8D38C9'>It was very weird for Vullem to be unconscious. She could vagely feel herself being moved, and heard muted sounds around her. It was almost like she wasn't even there. Suddently a very strong smell came to her nose. She gagged, and was able to open her eyes as she began to feel and hear things again. She looked around just to be sure she wasn't in Fronima. Painfully she struggled to speak.
    "W-where a-am I? W-what hap-ppened?"</font>
     
  10. <font color='#CCCCCC'>A big smile came across Kazul face when he saw her open her eyes.
    <span style='color:"EEEEEE"'>“You’ll be okay just stay sitting and try to eat this. You took a big fall there and hit your head on a rock. I just wanted to get you out of the sun so I moved you in to the shade of this tree. Are you hurt any where?"</span>
    Kazul was happy to see that she was okay and handed here the strong smelly sandwich.(it not old or rotten, just has a strong tast)
    <span style='color:"EEEEEE"'>“I’m sorry but I couldn’t save your fishing pole."</span></font>
     
  11. <font color='#8D38C9'>Vullem happily exspeted the sandwich from the other 'dragon. She started to speak, her voice less shaky,
    "T-thank you for the sandwich. It's been days sence I've eaten anything. Yes, my head hurts, though I suppose that's usual if you hit your skull against a rock."
    The female took a few bites before speaking again.
    "Don't worry about the fishing pole. I found it earlier today on the ground. No big loss."
    She returns to eating the sandwich rather wolfishly.</font>
     
  12. <font color='#CCCCCC'><span style='color:"EEEEEE"'>“I guess I should have given you the food before then done of this would have happened. Oh and before I forget, my name is Kazul Reatuf. If you don’t mind it wound be nice to know your name."</span>
    Kazul sat down beside her and pulled some more sandwiches out of his bag.</font>
     
  13. <font color='#8D38C9'>Vullem speaks with her mouth half-full of food
    "I'm Vullem Nemp'taia. Nice to meet you Kazul."
    She swallows her food before speaking again,
    "Heh...sorry...my manners are...lacking. It's ok that you didn't give me food in the beginning. Besides, it was kinda neat being knocked out cold!"</font>
     
  14. <font color='#CCCCCC'>Kazul let out a small laugh.
    <span style='color:"EEEEEE"'>“It’s nice to meet you too Vullem. Fun to be knocked out….fun. That would have to be a first. Are you feeling any better would you like to go for a walk?"</span>
    Kazul asked as he was looking out across the lake with his white eyes.</font>
     
  15. <font color='#8D38C9'>Vullem smiled happily, light dancing in her eyes,
    "He he he, first? No, I'm sure someone said it before me. Anyways, I'll go on a walk with you. Sounds fun." She notices his eyes waver t'words the lake, and turns her gaze that way also.</font>
     
  16. <font color='#CCCCCC'>Kazul tough that he might have seen the fish splashing out on the lake.
    <span style='color:"EEEEEE"'>“Okay then. Hummm, how about this way."</span>
    He turn and started walking down the side of the lake. He turn around to see if Vullem was following him.</font>
     
  17. <font color='#8D38C9'>Vullem watched the rays of light play apon the lake's surface untill she realized Kazul already left. She got up on her four paws and followed after the other 'dragon. Her body had not entirely ride itself of the aftermath of her fall. The female's head felt heavy while she stumbled dizzly after Kazul. Her step wobbled as she triped over her paws, yet she noted mentally she would not give up, that she would 'walk it off'.</font>
     
  18. <font color='#CCCCCC'>Kazul saw Vullem stumble as she tried to walk.
    <span style='color:eeeeee'>"Are you sure you are Ok. We can sit longer if you like?"</span>
    Kazul didnÂ’t want her to faint from walking.</font>
     
  19. <font color='#8D38C9'>Vullem stopped. She stood upright, bracing herself against a world that was tilting only in her mind. A few brief moments the sway almost stopped. Vullem called after Kazul,
    "I can handel it, I don't need to sit. Don't worry"
    Vullem paced herself more now, even though her paws were much more steady. She made her way twords the other without losing balance.</font>
     
  20. <font color='#CCCCCC'>Kazul slowed his passe down to make it easier for Vullem.  He decided that maybe if he kept her talking she wouldnÂ’t think about her head hurting too much.
    <span style='color:"EEEEEE"'>“So, you said that you were a seer earlier. What are your other trades?"</span>
     He asked while he walked.</font>
