Chapter One (The Prelude)
I am a very seasoned Traveler and have visited an array of planes and dimensions. I have been in Brittania, Norrath, Azeroth, and many many more. As I got older my yearning for the nomadic and adventuresome life has lessened and I have been yearning for a more peaceful and settling life where I can make a home for myself and retire. I spent many many years searching for a place I could call home and had all but given up when I met a strange lady who made me nervous.
She took me in and gave me breakfast. She asked me if I came from a land down under. I thought this was quite strange and figured she was referencing Hell, but apparently she is just from a different universe called Australia.
She turned out to be a prophetess of some deity and swore that her God could help me. I smiled and listened to her prattle on for quite some time. As the evening grew quite late she offered to put me up for the night and I graciously accepted.
The Next morning I gained consciousness feeling quite strange and light headed. Upon looking around I was shocked to find I had no corporeal form.
After pulsing around for a bit and floating over some shallow water, I heard a voice telling me to leave the reflecting pool and cross the stream of dualities.
I followed the Voice and was given a human form. I then spoke to a wizard and told him my name was Kato.
I burned myself in a fire and passed out. When I awoke I was naked in a lovely field.
Chapter Two (The Beginning)
I was amazed at not having a sense of trepidation in this new land, but rather I was quite elated. There was a slight breeze over a field with some lovely trees and bushes. I spent the next few hours just basking in the glory of this new land. I picked some apples and blueberries and ate my fill. I found some curious objects and studied them to see what I could learn. I was amazed at the knowledge I gained. I learned the basics of this new world. Foraging for all sorts of food and curiosities, Hunting squirrels and Rabbits and Cooking some meat. I also dried some furs and skins. I felt quite at home and the solitude was welcomed. I found a nice little clearing and claimed it as my own, building some basic items like crates to keep goodies in and a lean-to that would offer a little protection against the chill of night.
I spent the next couple weeks gathering things, eating and studying things. I learned more of the land I was in and thought it time to explore a bit more. I started out wandering in ever growing circles to get the lay of the land. As I was doing so I heard a voice on the wind calling to me. I investigated and followed the "voice on the wind" until I wound up face to face with a talking tree of all things. The tree seemed benevolent so I journeyed to find the person it spoke of. After a brisk walk I found it, another tree. Well I greeted the tree as I was asked to do and returned to the first tree and upon telling it of my mission completion she gave me a leaf that was promised to make me a better martial artist. I thanked the tree and carried on about my daily duties.
After talking to trees, stumps and rocks and doing all sorts of strange things for them I was feeling it was about time to eat something a bit bigger than a rabbit so I made a slingshot, gathered up some rocks and set out to find something.
After an uneventful journey and the day closing in on night I decided to call it and return home. As I reached my little area I found a stranger in my camp !!!!
There was a bear sniffing around my fire like he owned the place. So I decided to do what any self aggrandizing Man of Men would do...... I screamed like a little girl and ran. Unfortunately for me the bear was not amused by my little screech and gave chase. I then learned 3 valuable life lessons. 1) Bears run faster than Kato 2) Bear claws are extremely sharp and dig quite deep. 3) When a bear decides to eat your face, you become a little sparklie formless mass and life goes full circle.
... but, hopefully you do arrive safely and we are all looking forward to having you join us and hearing about your adventures en route.
