As Kiawase lay there, without conciousness, there was the sound of a peaceful breeze and crickets chirping. Soon, she regained her awareness, and slowly awakened.

"Wh...whoa. I shouldnt use that for a while. Man, puns are kinda getting cooler now." As she said that she heard the sound of bones clacking together. "Hmm? What is that?" Kiawase said, as she looked around for the source. With no results, she thought it was her imagination, until she heard it again. Soon after, a figure appeared on the horizon.

"Oh, is that someone coming? He came from the way i did, so he dosent seem to be a villager." Kiawase said to herself. "Hello! Who goes there?" She yelled.

"FINALLY! I found you!!" The person said, as he started running towards Kiawase. As she took a closer look, she could see, that this wasnt a person. No, it was a skeleton!

"What the hell?! No, dont come near me, i dont wanna catch the death disease!" Kiawase yelled as she started to run, but felt a force keeping her from moving.

"You wont be running any farther than that!" The skeleton said, "Ive got a bone to pick with you!" As his right arm was extending towards Kiawase. It was extending really rapidly, and as soon as it reached Kiawase, it went around her waist. "Oooh. What a nice waist you have! But, this is no time to be distracted! I will destroy you!

Kiawase couldnt do anything, as the bone went towards her. She tried her hardest, but it amounted to nothing. "Why me? What did i doo!" She yelled at the skeleton. 

"You! You destroyed my grave and unearthed my skeletal body! Because of you, i wasnt able to become an Arch-Lich. Now, im only a Great-Skeleton! Now, you must pay! with your life!"

"Wait, cant we comprimise! How about this! Ill do any one thing beside killing myself!" She exclaimed. "Is that good?!"

"Hmm." The skeleton stood there, thinking on what to do. "Alright. I agree. The one thing i will make you do, is form a contract with me, making me tied to you and your mana at all times" 

"Deal,Deal! Now, how do i do this?" Kiawase asked. 

"You cant even do this? Oh god. Well, first, inject some mana into me, then spill a drop of blood onto where you injected the mana. The more mana, the stronger the contract." The skeleton said, with a somewhat excited voice. "I recommend you do it on ym forhead, but you can do it anywhere. "

"Oh ok. Like this?" Kiawase said, as she cut her finger and out her left hand over his forehead. Soon, she forced some sort of energy through her left arm.

"Did it work? Are you now my 'follower' i guess you could say?" Kiawase asked

"Yes, very much so. I feel an unexhasutible energy flowying thoughout my marrow. This is truly wonderful. I think this clears up any debts. But, there is a new one in place. Since im your follower, i cant leave a certain radius from you, so i have to stick with you pretty closely. But, ive always wanted an apprentice. I feel a certain energy that i can relate to. The two affinities i have are dark and Space. And i feel space is the strongest, so it seems that you are now my apprentice."

"Really? This could help me, but im still the master. I am the one with mana after all." Kiawase teasingly said. "By the way, who are you? You seem to be someone famous?" 

"Ahh, yes. I believe i never told you. My name is, or was, Caris. Caris Withord. I will tell you my life story." 

"No no no. I am alright. I dont need details on everything" Kiawase said.

"Are you sure? It wont take long." Caris said. 

"Yes. Although it sounds like fun, but tell me. Where are we?" Kiawase replied, quickly changing the topic.

"My guess is as good as yours. Ive been in slumber for a few hundred years" Caris said wryly.

"I Guess it is time to adventure...." She said.
