the life of the good wizard, Thumkin |
There lived a wizard named Thumkin during the first kingdom that Mariah founded. Thumkin was human, but no ordinary human. No one knows when or where he was born, but scholars have debated that he might have been abandoned by a human nomad woman after she gave birth to him in or near the green mountains. He became known when he rode a brown horse into the Great kingdom in the year 288 bc (Before Chad), and decided to become a perminent citizen of the new kingdom. Thumkin was regarded by the other few citizens of the kingdom as a recluse, but he was allowed to stay as long as he didn't practice any dark magic, which he promised that he would not. He only practiced light elven magic, and only to help those in need. What made Thumkin so unique, was his long life. He lived to see the second barbarian massacre in which the mountain barbarians enslaved the citizens of the great kingdom. This event shook Thumkin to his core, though he managed to escape being kidnapped. Thumkin had to use dark magic to kill several mountain barbarians, something he would later regret doing. He escaped into the forest of darkness which was being over run with dark elves, but used elf magic to hide himself until he found a safe haven with a camp of good elves in the lost plains. There Thumkin and the good elves hid themselves in an old elven temple for 100 days. They had very little food or water, and eventually Thumkin died of a broken heart, according to the elves. Thumkin was almost 300 years old when he died. Why had he lived so long? No human had ever lived to be that old in history. It was a mystery that was never solved. |
