"Legend of the Twelve Regions"
Fists of Rayje, Part 1
by Edward Bolme
This follows the events of The Battle of Naroom, Part 5, upcoming portions of The Unwanted, the fiction in Book of Ages #3, and the Nightmare's Dawn rulebook.

Naroom...

"So how does it feel, Yaki?" said Poad, surveying the newly conquered region of Naroom.

"It feels... terrible," said Yaki. "No one will trust me now, brother. I've lost my purity. Bummer! And I'm stuck with all the nightmares I can stand. And the nightmares will force me to have more nightmares!"

"Bummer," said Poad. "But I'm glad you're still with us."

"Woo hoo," said Yaki absently. "There's only one thing that bothers me."

"What's that?"

"They still have Pruitt. They're trying to turn her; I can feel it. They're wearing her down. We lost Evu. We lost Tryn. And now we're losing Pruitt. We have to do something, brother."

"Woah, Yaki, do you know what you're saying? They almost got you last time, my friend. You're talking about going right to the center of their power and trying to free Pruitt. That's crazy! They'll get you for sure!"

"I don't know how I'm going to do it, Poad, I really don't. But I have to go. I won't let Pruitt go through the horrible things I saw."

"You'll need help."

"Oh yeah," said Yaki gravely. "I just wish I had some."
