Fred couldn't believe his eyes, even though the harvest moon shone
brightly. From
behind a nearby stack of the freshly cut grains a man had appeared and
grabbed the stone
that had preceeded Fred from the Dragon's lair. He deftly threw the stone
at the
three-armed creature and into it's rather large eye. With a yelp the
creature fell to the
floor, shook for some minutes, and then ceased all movement whatsoever; it
was dead.
The man approached Fred and the now waking Velus. "We must move from this place," he whispered. "Too dangerous." Fred wanted to thank this man for his aid, but he was also wary of simply trusting a stranger. "What is your name?" he asked. "My name is Yousef Qual, but my friends call me You." Fred did not consider himself a friend, so with a formal "Lead the way Yousef," he and Velus followed this man back behind a stack of grain.
