Xan, got up and kicked some dirt over what little fire he had left. With a stretch he took in his surroundings. “Not too bad” he thought too himself. Making sure the fire was out completely out he strapped on his back back and started down the trail. He chuckled under his breath as he thought back too what brought him this far. A silly hobbling with a penchant for eating his pies. “Well Lou here we are.” A memory of the old fat healer washed over him.
“Xan my boy what you need is some purpose in your life” The words muffled as the hobbling stuffed yet another small pie into his mouth. “Take for instance me.. Why just last year I ended a plague in the Southland’s… nothing helps ya get a good nights rest like doing some good!”
Xan blinked his eyes as his vision returned to the present, the trail he was on topping a hill that over looked the city. “Humans” Said with just a hint of distaste. Continuing on his mind drifts back into the past.
“But what’s wrong with just baking pies” A slightly younger Xan said. “Why nothing boy if you want to just want to waste your life” As usual the hobbling sat there with a smug smile on his face, his fingers sticky with all the various foods he managed to pilfer from Xan. “Its just few people ever have the potential to be something more and your one of them.”
Xan’s daydreaming is cut short as his face lands right into the dirt. Apparently he didn’t noticed the branch lying in the middle of the road. “Some great hero I am” he laughs then and brush’s off his face. while getting up then continuing down the road.
