A Bards Tale of a Tragedy Averted

[Tashsha]

Sashsha's parents ,after learning of there queen's insane plan to wage an all out war with the over-landers ,attempted to organize a coo. The coo failed and the queen had them executed ,throwing Sashsha in the castle dungeon in chains. Years latter ,a sorcercer ,seeing great promise in her ,managed to have her released. It was with this sorcercer that Sashsha learned the ways of the arcane arts. Upon reaching adulthood ,she learned why she had to endure the dungeon for so long and why her parents were taken from her. Sliping away from her misstress and with fire in her eyes ,she set out on revenge !

Useing what she learned from others ,in her years in the dungeon ,she managed to slip pass the castle guards and to the queen's chambers. The queen ,not expecting a confrontation in her chambers ,was unprepared for this enraged soul. Sashsha let loose all she was taught in a barage of magic ,forged by the weight of her chains. The queen fought back furiously. But lacking the determination of her attacker ,fell. Sashsha ,exausted ,spent ,and frenzyed from the battle ,stormed out of the chamber and dashed down the halls. Hastened by her still lingering magic ,the guards were not able to catch her. They organized a party and set out after her.

For weeks they hunted her ,but Sashsha used every trick she knew to elude her persuer's. But not knowing why there queen was so needlessly slautered ,the Drow people damaned that more resorces be spent in capturing this criminal. Time was running out for Sashsha.

Near starvening ,broken and beaten ,she though she might forage for something to eat. Right then she heard a noise and spoted a lone drow warrior. They would never send a single worrior out by her self to capture me ,she thought. At that moment ,her persuers caught up. A bright flash of light appeared around the Warrior and a tiger lady appeared ! The tiger lady quickly slew Sahsha's persuer's.

The tiger lady slowly walked over to Sashsha. Thinking this was the end ,she stood up and sneered in definance. But instead of feeling the last moments of her life slip away ,she saw another bright flash of light ,and a robed figure appeared. The figure begain uttering words of magic and a bright collum of blue light came down on Sashsah. All of her wounds were instantly mended ! The figure removed her pointed helm and revieled a human. "I am Silvara ,Kinght of the Rose. Who are you and why are you being persued ?" Sashsha ,off banance at such a display of power ,and knowing she could not go back, told Silvara of her tale. "So you have no home" Silvara said. "No" Sashsah replied falling to her knees sobing. "Then let me teach you our ways and become a Kinght. My home will be your home ,and our castle will be yours." Since before her parents death ,Sashsha had not felt such compassion. She could not refuse.......
