Welcome Scheetghed is here good and great
SylYle speaking as Scheetghed, annoying much
Being a free spirit of the forest, back when there were still trees upon the lands of my birth. The white hair hairless legs be coming and took away my whole clan. They were many and we were few. Swiftly they struck and dead were my family. I followed these Pointed eared ones to a clearing. Staying upon the brush I do see them making fire from nothing and set to eat a deer which be nearby. All night I watch wanting to go and strike them all. But I am small and they are tall. Then to me see movement. Movement get larger and then spring forth, many spring forth and do what I could not. I wish do be true for they cut down all the pointy ears. Thinking my salvation and ignoring them looks I come forward eager to greet the slayers of my family killers. That is when I were put in a sack.
Taken away to what I was to later learn was the city,I do not fight my captures. For I'm still very young and do not even have nubs for my horns yet. They put me on a platform of cut wood and a man speaking something not understood by myself did do alot of talking that day. First each of us stood and then stepped forward and across the platform then back to where we stood. The journey and the events here were very much a blur and it is hard to even remember this much. The person who took me with a ring around my neck and a lead attached to it nearly dragged me across the hard ground to a box. Inside this box was many many years of pain and beatings for nothing. I also had to perform acts and dance and tasks which were not fun, I did not like this at all.
One day when the hurting person was making sounds with his eyes closed the object which opened my cage was close. I could barely reach it, but reach it I did. Making the object fit in the open hole was easy seeing it so many times. Sneak I did out of the Box I had not been out of in many many moons. I found food and hid in a small box under a platform for many days. One day I saw one person hurting another. This was not like the hurt done to me. This had different hurting sound to it. Then there was no sound... Something inside of me just went wild and then the next I know I'm in a bigger cage. Most people saying things I didn't understand.. Then one furry one come up to me and talked to me civil like.. "Why did you kill that person." It asks rumbling voice almost echoing off the walls of the alley. "Well, Fine large one. It was like the hurt I get, but not, and then when the yells and screams stopped and he was laying on top of the other one I got angry. And then I am here."
The large one talks again in what I don't understand. "Ok Thank you." He says to me. "You can have this and go. It's your reward for killing the criminal. This one deserved to die." What is this reward I wonder. Looking in the small bag it's coins. Round, well mostly round and has a color of brown. "What is this? Can I eat it?" Laughing very loudly the rumbling voice echos. "Oh, No... But you can get something to eat with it." With that he went away lifting the dead ones and carrying them away. Once I was out of the Cage I ran. I had to find a new box to hide in... I didn't want the hurting one to come and get me now that so many knew where I was hiding. I found one small mostly hairless one. A female even. She did teach me to speak the tongue of the Common. Most of the Common will understand it, now I understand it too. But I am not of the common. I am Scheetghed. I once was called something else, but that was long forgotten. But now I am Scheetghed not of the Common but speaking so that the Common can understand. She were name A-lice... I didn't get too close to her for not to be infested. I gave her a coin and she came back with food. One day A-Lice didn't come by. I waited one moon and then three. Then it was time to find A-Lice. Not that I wanted to be seen, but I missed talking the Common with her... I See A-Lice and she is being dragged by her yellow hair. She is screaming. No, No in the Common. I run up and run into the one dragging her. I fall down he fall forward and then I see a 'sord' out the back of him.... He fell on his own 'sord' and so accident but not accident I wanted to make sure A-Lice was not screaming. Being loud and lots of mostly hairlesses see and A-Lice screaming for me to run I run. I run and I run then I can not find my hole. But I do find large Harry one from before.I say in the Common. I want more coin. I killed another doing bad. He then take me to a large box with cages all around in them and I wet the floor. I know I should run but fear is holding me there. I get to explain the story and they do not pay me in coin, The put me in a cage. They do feed me though and they do not hurt me. But they look at me like I am not one of them, like an animal. I am Scheetghed now and I want coins so I can eat. I don't know much but that was how it was before and how it should be again.
I go in front of a pointy ear...There were many people there watching A-Lice was there but her skin was black now and not the sunny color. The Commons yelling and wanting me to 'pay' and 'deserve to die'.. funny that is how I thought I should get reward because he deserve to die, nd now I am sure that this is where I die... I yell at him, not in the Common, that his White Hairs family should have killed me long ago at least I would still be with them and not in such a place getting such pain. He then pauses and looks at me deeply. I do stop yelling and I can feel his eyes almost peering inside me. He asks me my story and I tell him of A-Lice person dragging her and falling on his 'sord' and wanting coin so I can eat because that was like it was before. Then he asked of before that... And I find myself telling him all of what has happened to me. When my story was done all were quiet. The pointy ear in the chair tells me I have to pay for what I did. Not all need to die and then 'sentenced' me to work for a suitable punishment so that I can compensate the family. Not sure what all that means but I don't die. Good, ok.
So I started working for a bounty hunting office catching those who run away from jail and trial. I get to catch them and bring them back. Sometimes I get to kill the ones that deserve it. Sometimes I bring back the ones that do just to let somebody else have the fun in killing them in front of lots of people. I'm getting really good at the Common. My debt more than paid off I still work for the Bondsman boss because I get to sleep in soft grass and I get food also. The things I need when I go out I just check out and use what I need and put back what was not used of lost.
It has been a few years now and A-L, Alice, even has come to see me a few times but she does not talk to me she just stares at me and then leaves. I miss her talking... Then the Bondsman comes to me and tells me one day he has a special assignment for me. There is a big bounty huge he says and he will pay me one thousand gold if I bring him back alive. but only two hundred gold if he is dead. That's alot usually the difference is only about twice the of dead but this one is big difference. I have learned numbers and much in my time here with the Bondsman. I take the parchment and check out the 'quipment' I think I will need. Make sure you take some extra this time. You're going on a voyage and he laughs for some reason thinking it funny. Not sure what a Voyage is but its' a new word. I get extra arrows and take an extra rapier just in case one gets lost or bent. Can I get some coin for food on 'voyage'? the Bondsman I ask... He just shakes his head Just go and take everything you can... Tell them to send me the bill...and go down to the docks ask for Northbound. See you if you get back.
That's his friendly way of saying don't get killed, or is it this time go get killed and not collect the reward... I wonder how much it really is if he is offering me so much.
Not sure why he's being so generous, but I think he's getting a bargain... I really can't carry that much... But I can sure put alot in a cart.
Off for shopping and this Voyage and enough coin to maybe even start my own business.
