((sorry for being rusty, haven't really used my imagination much the past couple years. Pulling this out of my well, you know what, while I download the client))
It was about noon when a strange yet eerily familiar character stood at the doorstep to the tavern. He was battered and bloody from head to toe and had a horrendous smell about him. He stumbled to the bar and tossed down a couple gold. He spoke only 6 words, 6 distinct words that once heard by most, made the hair on the back of their necks stand straight up.
"Eevahseratink evahclear, an keep dem comeenk"
The words echoed inside the now silent tavern. Drink after drink the the troll sat in silence. Hours passing quicker then Pazo's gas...
Patrons were whispering at first, about who this troll might be. Could it be the retarded troll they once knew, and if so, where had he been, why was he gone so long without mentioning a thing? After the last drink the bartender felt safe handing him, the troll stood up, turned around, and stumbled out of the tavern, silent as ever...
It was dark out when he left. Rain clouds loomed above and it began to pour as soon as he stepped foot outside. No one saw what direction he stumbled in, though his stench lingered throughout the night off putting many patrons.
As the sun rose over the horizon it became very clear why the stench never left the tavern. The troll got no more then 10 paces from the door when he stumbled over a rock and passed out in a drunken stupor. It wasn't long before he awoke from his own stench, the rain had washed away all traces of blood from his body but the stench remained.
Stumbling back into the tavern, still a little drunk from the previous night's libations, he made his way to a table in the far corner. A small waitress walks up to him. The troll stares down at her for a moment or two with a blank expression on his face.
"My, you're a tall one."
the small waitress exclaims. Expecting some kind of response the waitress stands there for a few seconds, troll still staring down at her.
"Stop staring at my boobs, they cost five silver each per second."
She says, very nonchalantly. The troll quickly regains his scenes and waves off the waitress, she lets out a quick *herm* letting him know she didn't take kindly to his waste of her time while she could be earning tips off other patrons.
A few hours later a large tauren, Woodrow, enters the tavern and heads straight for the corner where the troll now sits. Without hesitation he began to speak.
"Earthmother be damned, Merp's back!"
The troll looks around him, wondering who the fat cow like person is talking to. Woodrow sits at the table with the troll and begins to speak...
"So what have you to say this time Merp, why haven't I heard from you?"
After a few moments the troll realizes it's him who the cow man is talking to and scratches his head. His face strains, the cow seems familiar, so did the tavern, but he just can't put any thoughts together. After a few minutes pass Woodrow speaks again.
"Merp, it's me, Woodrow. C'mon pal, you HAVE to remember me..."
A few more minutes pass with the troll still straining. His expression quickly changes to suprise and he begins to speak.
"Woodrough, wat happeend ta meh? Last tink ah remembah was wakeeng up undah dee eart an ah ad tah deeg ma way out"
Knowing Merps "darkness" Woodrow pulls a small potion from his bag and tells Merp to drink it. It smelled like rotten toenail clippings and tasted even worse. Merp's expression quickly changes through your usual assortment of *nasty beverage* faces.
"So... What can you tell me Merp, what have you been up to all these years?"
Woodrow mutters soon after Merps expressions stop.
"Ah tink ah remembah sometink aboot a humeen earh, but ahh... Ahh jus don remembah. ees all so cloudah."
((I'll cut it off now before I go saying something I can't recant. I know it's a thin read and probably crappy as hell but as I said, kinda pulling this out of my arse last minute.
Thought I forgot about that blood encrusted human ear though didn't ya? Well it still has a place in the story of Merp and I have a fairly good idea on where I'm going to go from here, but it's 4:47am and I need a little shuteye. See you all Ingame soon... Very soon... )) |
