The road headed north toward the town of Pagras. They had been tempted to follow the sign toward the ruins of Kaladim, but the warning sign coupled with the line of soldiers further down dashed those ideas. The road leading toward Pagras eventually snaked through a forest. As they walked through the forest, they couldn't shake the feeling that they were being watched. Each of them used their individual powers to search for whatever was watching them, but there was nothing there. Nothing was watching them, nothing at all. And yet...

in the trees...

The two sets of purple eyes stared at the three newcomers. One turned to the other.

Tell the General.

The other set of eyes vanished.

eventually the three made it to the town of Pagras. They sought out a soldier there.

"Excuse me, we're looking for information. Can you direct us to the library?"

"Sorry, but there is no library here. The only books we've got here are privately owned. We're a farming community. If you want information, I'd say you should head to the Red City, it's got a big fancy library. It's also got the only copy of the definitive guide to our history in existence. It was written by one of them... them things... hey Frank!"

Another guard who had been walking by turned to look "Yeah?"

"What is the name of them creatures, the ones that are real tall, look like they're made of darkness, the ones with the purple eyes?"

"You mean the ones that everyone says is good yet you still get this cold frightened feeling when you see em'?"

"Yeah."

"Oh, those are called Endermen."

"Right. Well, this book was written by an Enderman, and they supposedly know basically everything that ever went on in this world. They're as old as time itself, supposedly." The guard looked up. The sun was setting, and a worried look crossed his face. "Listen, you three should wait till morning to make for the Red City. Night's falling, and you know what that means. There's an inn over there, the keeper'll give you a fair price. Hey Frank, wait up!" The guard drew his sword and shield. Frank did the same. "C'mon, let's get to the Eastern roadway." The two jogged off toward the way the three had come in.
