Three left, only one was to return. [[Asger Snærr]], [[Markoth|Markoth Dawnborn]], and [[Drang]] had all been called unto a mission to slay a horrid green dragon. All three knew the risks. All three knew they may not return. The members of the PotP found Drang's broken half alive body in front of the doors to the base, alone, the rest taken by the void. New guildmembers [[Feyjin]] and [[Reylendor|Reylendor Aspenmorrow]] brought Drang to surgery as Hugo could only stand there in shock. | Three left, only one was to return.

"Silent, is there anything you can do for them?" "I'm sorry, but they are out of my reach." '''Strike 1''' | |||
Hugo could feel it. All of it. His mind slipping into the fire as the world around him fractured into a million pieces. This world he lived in no matter how much he fought would just take and take. It took his family of blood, and now it was slowly but surely taking his family found. | Hugo could feel it. All of it.

When Drang was alone in the makeshift operating room that had been constructed, Hugo slipped in when no one was watching. He looked upon the broken and frail body of a friend he couldn't bear to lose. The one whose kindness had served as a foundation for Hugo hoped to become, the foundation for this guild he had found in new purpose. That kindness who had their body beaten and broken in a world incomprehensible in pain. Quietly Hugo sat down to his dear friend and began to speak, tears peaking out from underneath the mask. | When Drang was alone in the makeshift operating room that had been constructed, Hugo slipped in when no one was watching.

"Drang, I feel like I am standing at the edge of a cliff, and what I am standing over, its bottomless. I stared into the abyss like so many others have done so before me, but I blinked. If they are really gone, if they don't come back, I don't know what can stop me from falling into the depths below. Drang I need you to promise me. If I fall, I need you to catch me. And if that fails. I need you to promise you will kill me before I hit the ground." “Remembered as good people, all anyone can ask for. I would do the sames for you” | |||
Hugo needed to get his mind off of what had been going on at the base and decided to take a trip far out across Isonhound. This would eventually lead him to the guildhall of the [[Order of the Watchful Eye]]. Here Hugo would fall in with a group of adventurers including his fellow worshiper in [[Silent]], [[Delphi]]. The adventures were shown a contraption quiet interesting, a combination of Aerocyrstal, Fellstone, and Wovenstone which could grant a structure weightlessness. Here gears began to turn in Hugo's mind. After this demonstration the adventurers were sent on a mission to investigate strange activity at a mine in the Northern Snowy Mountains. Here Hugo beheld the rift. A break in the material into a land of shadow and darkness from which death reeked. Somewhere, on the other side, Hugo knew, they were there. Asger and Markoth, lost, scarred broken. Maybe if he could, he could save them. But it was not to be and the mine was collapsed, taking the breach with it. | |||
Hugo | In the days after Hugo returned to the guildhall, Reylendor was successfully able to get a Sending out into the Shadowfell. The results were, disheartening, and proved that there was no bringing them back. '''Strike 2''' | ||
The sound of someone breaking. Its quiet. Alone in utter silence. behind cold dead eyes no ne sees anything different on the outside, yet the world behind the mask they call their face has shattered into a million pieces. Everything that held Hugo back in the past had finally fallen to the wayside. He was free. | The sound of someone breaking. Its quiet.
