MAYOR'S OFFICE, PALADINS TOWER, PAXLAIR CITY, FELUCCA
- While Mayor Winfield, Eli, John Duke, and Noah gathered in the
Mayor's office to discuss a few matters, The Gatekeeper suddenly
appeared. There was a strange mist around the entity as it began
to speak.
"You Mayor Winfield, I am here for you," it said with a cold
voice. "You must come with me for a short while. By
nightfall, we will enter the Underworld together. It may be
perilous. You must go because there is much you must learn."
"I know a lot already," Winfield replied.
"That is not enough," The Gatekeeper insisted. "There are many
other things you must learn in the Underworld." It turned to the
others. "Your mayor will be gone for three days."
Then it soon vanished into thin air like it always does.
Mayor Winfield did not appear worse for the wear in this encounter,
but he said he really did not want to miss his first PaxLair meeting as
Mayor. He told John Duke, the Minister of Diplomacy, to go ahead
and run the meeting on his behalf.
What happens to Mayor Winfield in the Underworld is anyone's
guess--even Winfield's guess. Winfield traveled to the Underworld
a long time ago with The Gatekeeper, but Winfield had to swear to never
tell anyone specifics of what he saw. When Winfield returns this
time, maybe he can tell more.
