Now he was awake once more, he knew he had to follow the path he had diligently plotted to Murak, and get there as fast as he could; for dehydration was setting in. He stood, shaking and nearly dropping back to the floor. In the far distance, along the horizon, he saw the tower. The large, golden tower, mythically built up from sandstone.

Walking steadily, he thought of the only person from Murak he knew. She was a young elven girl, a huntress. Her father was the one who fashioned his bow. Smiling at the thought of her, he wondered if he would see her or her kin again. Had she moved? Did she remember him? They'd only met briefly, last summer, when their trading aravel (their caravan) entered the city. She was young, with long blonde hair parted to the side, and strong legs. Her eyes were a deep green.
