Geist(scince I'm not a mage anymore, I changed my name) is traviling through the fierce sandstorms. Visibility is extremly limited. He finds himself at the mercy of the elements. Tired and beaten, he collapses to the ground. Geist's eyes slowly come to a close, and he falls asleeep.

Geist wakes up hours later incaged, in a bandit camp. He is still tired, and his stomach starts to growl. Geist could easily break out with a cast of Flux, but he is stripped of his energy. Exahsted, geist lays down on his hard, rough bed. Geist notices that there isn't a whole lot of people here in these cells, and wonders why. Geist falls asleep again, and hopes to get some food when he wakes up.
While Geist is sleeping, some bandits were chatting with one and another. "What do you think we should do with this guy?" "I'm not shure. He looks like a magic guy, and we might be able to use him to embed our weapons with magic" "That guy looks awful tired, all he does is sleep. I doubt he'll ever be able to help us. He just sleeps." "It's rare that we find anything living around these parts, I think we should eat him! I haven't had meat in ages!" "Well, lets decide in the morning."

Morning arises, and Geist wakes up. He is still as hungry as ever, and needs to regain his energy.
One of the bandits notices he woke up, and gives him some greul. "eat up, you'll need your energy."
Geist devoured the greul, and sat down, letting it digest. The gaurd opens up the cell door, and pushes Geist out. He guides him outside, and pushes Geist down on the ground. Geist recieves a mouthfull of sand, and spits it out. He mumbles, "ack, gross."

The gaurd askes Geist, "Your one of those magic types, aren't you?" "Y-y-yes. I hapen to study a little here and there." "Good. Now empower me with some of that magic ya got there!" "O-oh, I'm afraid I cannot. You see, I am exhausted, and am unable to cast the simplest-" "QUIET! *hits Geist with a whip* Now magic me up!" "I'll try"
Geist thinks, that he might be able to take this fellow out.
...FLUX! {O}
The gaurd falls to the ground, and Geist runs.

Geist, knowing he is gonna need supplies for the road ahead, ran back to the bandit hideout. He creaped inside, trying hard not to make a sound. He sees that the place is deserted. "Mabey the left to try and find me, thinking I escaped?" Geist mumbled to himself. Geist raids the place for supplies, and comes across some food and water, some axes, and 100 gold*. Geist stashes these items in his robes, and bolts away.
*I just got out of a bandit fortress, don't you think you would steal their gold? Its not like its a lot, you can't buy anything with 100g.
How come I haven't gotten my stupid gold?

Geist is sprinting in the desert, trying to escape his persuers. He is finding himself getting tired, and he trips. Geist can hear bandit war cries in the background. He scrambles onto his feet, and continues to run.

Geist looks behind, and has a feeling that he can't outrun his persuers. He stops, and rests. The bandits are getting closer, Geist can feel it in the vibrations in the ground. They get stronger, and stronger, and stronger, and STRONGER! Geist gets up and starts chanting a spell. The Bandits are well within eye sight now, and Geist is confindent his aim will pervail.

...
FLUX! {0}
A cloud of sand burst fworth, and hides everything in front of Geist. Seconds later, some silloetts, can be seen charging forth. "Damn, I missed!", Geist said in diguist.
He readies another shot at it. This time he cannot fail. Oherwise, they would get too close, and he wouldn't be able to prepare another flux. He opens up his book, and hopes that it hits.

...
FLUX!!! {O}
Geist sees another explosion of sand, but...this time, it is at least three times larger than last time. After the sand dies down, Geist finds nothing but bodies. He started to talk to himself, "Must have been a critical hit. I know that just one cast of flux, cannot possibly take out that many bandits. Intreguing." Geist walks up, and checks the bodies for anything valuable. All he can find is just semi rusted axes, and a vulnerary. He takes the vulnerary and takes a sip of the liquid. Healing his wounds. Geist takes his leave.

After walking for seemingly endless time, Geist collapses. He is afraid of being captured again, but he just can't go on any further. The desert seemed too much for him, and the wind knocked him over. His last sight is of a large silhouette moving toward him.

While Geist is sleeping, the gaurdian of Nabata came forth. He saw Geist laying there, and immediatly came to his aid. He splashes some water on his face, hoping to revive him.

Geist slowly opens his eyes. He sees a well built man, very tan, extremely sexy (hawt <3). The man asks, "What are you doing here? This is no place for you." "Huh, uh? I came for the persuit of knowledge", explained Geist, now fully awake. Geist gets up onto his feet. "Who are you?" "I am Hawkeye, protecter of the Nabata desert. When I saw you lying there, I had to come to your aid."

"Thank you Hawkeye. I am blessed to have you come to my aid." "It was all I could do. We don't see many people around these parts. You must have some sort of story to tell." Geist explains his encounter with the bandits. "Oh, I see. You should be more careful, if I wasn't here, you might have been in captivity again." "I know, but, I was so tired. I just fell, and slept." "Here, you obviously need rest. I'll take you to Arcadia, and you can get some food, and water, and sleep there. Its a village not so far from here." "Thank, you hawkeye."

As they approched Arcadia, Geist looked inside, and felt a paradise. There were fountians, statues, [dragons?]*, and all around happy people. It looked as if, there were no problems in the town at all. Geist recieved many warm welcomes, and felt at home. He got a nice dinner, and went straight to bed.
*Spoiler
Did Nergal take out all the Dragons in Arcadia, when he and Athos went there? Are there some left?

In the morning, when Geist woke up, he recieved another fantastic meal. Geist knew he couldn't stay forever, and he had to leave eventually, but he also knew he can't leave just yet. Geist stayed in Arcadia for a few weeks. He had a grand time, but he had to leave. He gave his farewells to everybody. And then came Hawkeye, he told Geist he wanted to talk to him before he leaves. It is soposto be important.
[question. Should I visit Athos? Because its now or never]
