Skeletons

## Tell-A-Story

There was once an unnamed tribe starving and slowly dying, searching for a place to settle down in the cold unyielding blizzard. Eventually their efforts lead them to a dungeon, unknown to them, it was an unholy site used for rituals and sacrifices. And thus the tribe settled down in the dungeon, lighting a campfire for warmth and comfort. The tribe remained there for days, barely able to support itself, while some tried going outside to look for resources others explored the insides of the maze-like halls of the dungeon. The tribe's presence woke up {The Forgotten Demon}, annoying it and approaching the tribe, the Demon's presence was entirely pitch black with wings big enough to block the path of the explorers and huge horns on its head, the only thing that didn't seem to be void was a small golden pin with the "L" letter on his chest. Naturally the warriors of the tribe tried to protect themselves and the tribe as a whole, but their sharp sticks and bows did nothing to the Demon, only making it angrier in the end. Looking to profit from the tribe, The Forgotten Demon gave them a goal, one that cannot be fulfilled;

*To prepare a large feast for it by the end of the month.*

The tribe barely able to sustain itself, tried to plead to The Forgotten Demon, but their pleas fell on deaf ears. The end of December arrives and The Forgotten Demon wakes up once more to check on the tribe, expecting large amounts of food prepared just for him, but, there was nothing. Filled with rage, The Forgotten Demon mercilessly cursed the tribe, killing every single last one of them, ripping off their flesh and reviving them as skeletons while also forming a barrier spanning kilometers, this barrier reached all the way from the dungeon to the nearby sea, this barrier served as an imprisonment for the skeletons. The demon, furious, yelled "This shall be your eternal punishment!" and left, not before threatening to one day come back.

That is how the Skeleton race was made, nobody still knows how they managed to increase their numbers but they lived on, unable to enjoy the small comforts of life such as sleeping, drinking and eating. The skeletons dreaded the day the demon showed up again however the years passed and The Forgotten Demon never came.

then The Forgotten Demon told them this: ''If you manage to collect at least a million potatoes, I will lift this curse and let you live your life once again'' (The reason for why it was potatoes was unknown, and still is.)

For years they farmed millions upon millions of potatoes,

Eventually the barrier disappeared, but the curse didn't, the Skeletons didn't know what to think of it so they just continued farming potatoes. One of the Skeletons, sick of having to do the same mundane task for the rest of his miserable life, broke rank and fled, abandoning his fellow kin. That Skeleton would eventually give himself the nickname of ''Tr3ks'', in his travels Tr3ks would discover many things about the world. At one point or another, he crossed paths with a person going by the nickname of ''Deimos'', Tr3ks and Deimos became great friends and travelled together for years until they stumbled upon another group of people with their own stories and mysteries, Tr3ks alongside Deimos decided to join that group in their travels. Now Tr3ks has a new goal, to obtain his humanity. One way or another he will achieve that goal someday, and after that? To find The Forgotten Demon and make it pay for all the suffering it has caused
