Backstory: I, Eroc'Drah, Shall in this book i was allowed to write in by the prison gaurds, Tell my story. My story begins about 18 years back. The day I was hatched was the day of the Ecla'Ithium (means: The day of darkness, i have asked my fellow prisoners, and they told me the Soft-skins call it an "Eclipse"). In my Native Tribe this ment i was born to become a Great hunter, of which only 1 of every lizard-man tribe can be. At the age of 5, my training begun by the clan-elders. They were 4 shamans, each of them in contact with one of the nature spirit's. They thought me how the Spirits create Balance, and how i should honour them. This would take the next two years of my life before i continued with the next part of my training. Now i was learning the Essentials of Hunting. The hunting parties took me on al their trips. This would take five years... at the age of twelve, my training was completed i was told. I expected a final task, but i Didn't receive any. I lived in the large treehouse, under the chief and the clan-elders. Since my youth was spent much away from the other children of the tribe, i didn't have any friends. The other child's even feared me. So i was getting used to living on my own, Between 5 Old lizard's always speaking in the old language, called "snake-tongue" by the soft-skins. One of the elder's, The Fire Shaman, Thaught me severall Words because he told me he sensed a Disturbance in our swamps. two years passed as i tried to make the best of my life... Until the day of my 14th birth day. I was summoned To the Chief and his Elders to receive my final trial, the last obstacle to become the true "Great Hunter". I was told that she Shadow-Shaman sensed a new Source of black magic, Originating from The darker Parts of the swamp. I was tasked with Locating The source, and Destroying it. Failing to do so, would mean i Brought shame upon the Tribe... And so i Set off, I Took my bow and my poisoned arrows, and left to find the black magic and Destroy it....

After travelling through the Swamps for almost 5 days, i found a small village. It was inhabited by beings i had never witnessed before. They were Blue-skinned Creatures, With the appearance of the soft-skins but.. they seemed stronger.. more primitive. I decided to wait till nightfall and then i would search the village. Once the Darkness of night fell upon the swamp, i went to investigate. after entering a large structure in the middle of the village, i heard whispers. I held my Bow ready to fire at Whatever i was to find. Then, A voice, Speaking Clearly: You Shall lead us to Your Village, I DEMAND THIS OF YOU!!! After This, the world faded to black... I dreamt of walking back to the village, and once i arrived there, the Blue skinned creatures Would Surround it immediatly, and start pillaging the village... They slaughtered many of my tribe silently, But the Shadow-shaman Quickly Screamed, in a high pitch voice. A voice that would penetrate bone.. and so it was the surviving tribe members rushed out to attack the invaders. once again, everything faded to black.. I Awoke from my dream while the Shadow-shaman dragged me to the totem-pole in the middle of the village.. once i was tied up to it, i saw that my Dream had been reality... The shadow-shaman Spoke to my surviving tribe members: This Great Hunter Here, HE Brought the demons to Our village! He brought the Swamp trolls to us! He is responsible for this evil! Eroc'Drah, Hunter of The Tribe, I Hereby Banish you from our tribe. You must leave now and never return here. As the shaman spoke these words, he cut the ropes loose, and i ran off, towards the swamp.. At the destroyed Gate, The fire shaman spoke to me: My friend, I know it was not your fault, their black magic made u do it.. nevertheless, u must flee, Hurry, and remember: Treat nature well and the spirits will reward you. farewell, my friend... with these words, i ran off, as fast as i could, as far away from the village as possible. I felt lost, Alone.. and after what must have been hours, for the sun was already lowering again, i started walking instead of running.. I slept in a tree that night.... i walked for another 4 days... when suddenly, i was caught in a trap. a soft-skin trap. they said i was going to be sold as a slave.. and so it happened.. i was carried to a ship. we sailed for days. when we arrived at a port. I was blindfolded before i left the ship. A few moments later, a voice said: Get that green monster to the Prisons, He is way to ugly! my blindfold was removed, and i was in a dark and moist prison cell, where i reside up till now.. I hope this book will one day be found, and falls into the right hands... 2 and a half year has passed before i learnt to write, and another 1 and a half year to write this story. I am now 18 Years old, And have been imprisoned for 4 years. Shrah'lag ecgrich'isru...

this shall be my last entry in this book. the last 3 days were fantastic! A strong looking Orc ravaged the prison! He smashed the walls with his bare hands! And during the comotion, i was able to escape! I have hid on a ship. I've heard one of the crew members say we are going to silver-port. Perhaps, i can build a life there...

(hope u enjoyed the story, and if there are things unclear, please let me know)
