I’ve been feeling nostalgic as of late. The forgotten memories of the good old times have swarming my head for a while now… I miss the good old times. Never in my life would I imagine that so much would change in such a short amount of time…

     It’s been six years now since Pandora’s Box was opened; everything has changed so much… The landscapes have altered, and very few humans remain, that is, assuming we can still be called “humans”… Most of us have changed, mutated organisms now. Each new race now claims a particular landscape… We all have become rather territorial. The Lycanthropes rule the forests. The Merfolk have taken over the seas. Bearfolk wander the mountains; and Hawkmen claimed the most jagged peaks. And then there are the Feral, lords of the plains; my people, well, sort of.

     My name’s Lionel Savage, but now I answer to Leon; I am a Feral  Halfling - Meaning that I only posses claws, fangs, and a lion's tail. Of course, heightened senses are a given. - and let’s just say that Lion-like men do not take well on us that are only half-developed, apparently we slow down the pride… I was shunned from the pride a few years ago, I suppose my family would have left with me had they had the chance.... It’s a shame they didn’t survive the transformation… Now I’m just a drifter, don’t know where I’m headed, don’t need a reason to stay anywhere, don’t have any companions… It’s just me, and my cursed Halfling blood…

     My guess is that somewhere out there there’s bound be a few other Halflings, probably a bunch of drifters like myself. I suppose we could all try to live together, that is, assuming that there are in fact other Halflings, and that we don’t try to kill each other…

     I’m tired of running…

     I want to live in peace…

     I’ve been feeling nostalgic as of late; man do I miss the good old times.
