As with most days, Aeolus found himself traveling with one of the many caravans that traveled the Bohar Plains. It was easy coin, as most creatures int he area were barely a threat, and the bandits usually thought twice about messing with the caravans with guards. It was probably more of a hassle to them, than anything, but that was why the protection was worth the coin for most merchants and traders.
Today, though, was different than most. There was a strange twilight in the air, as if night and day were fighting against each other. Still, work was work and despite the fears, a few caravans had chosen to travel. Still, Aeolus was on guard. Day travel was easy, but now that the world was washed in twilight, there was the possibility of nocturnal creatures, brave bandits, or worse.
Aeolus scowled at the 'or worse' in his thoughts. What a pain. Though, secretly, his heart was racing. Not of fear, but something close to exhilaration. But he couldn't show that side to the client, which would be a problem. Instead, on the outside he remained calm and composed, yet ready to react. Then, all at once, the world went black. Aeolus drew the wind blade from his waist, and immediately tried to find his bearings.
"Damn," Aeolus cursed aloud. This isn't good. He released his blade with one hand, and snapped his fingers, creating a small orb of light that shot into the sky. It wasn't strong enough to illuminate much, but enough for Aeolus to realize that his client was long gone. He cursed once more. But I have bigger problems. What happened. Am I still even in the Bohar Plains?
"Hello? Can anyone hear me!?" he called out. "Is there anyone at all here!?"
