The Death of Never Nestknitter

by Never Nestknitter

I died today. That's right. Died. Like dead as a doornail, goodbye, lights out forever, final curtain call, kinda dead. I shouldn't be here to write this... but... here I am. Some stuff happened leadin' up to it, but honestly it's all kinda foggy now.
 
I know we found tracks of some bad-news fae creatures called, korreds. They had stolen Arc's master, so we went to find 'em. The tracks lead us to a cave. We fought and defeated a coupla rust monsters and a roper. I almost met my end then, but Abby healed. Another room of the cave had a few Korreds, and even an earth elemental appeared. One of them little korreds was attacking me, but I pretty much focused on the elemental. I didn't think the little things were much to worry about. Boy was I wrong. They sent me to meet my maker faster than a Quickling in a forest. I think I asked my friends to kill that black dragon for me as I was dying, but that may have been in my head. Everything just... stopped. It was over. But then I saw that white stag again, and it told me there was more for me to do. Then my vision twisted and next thing I knew, good 'ol Abby was standing over me lookin a might worried. He said he called in a favor. Wow. That's kinda a big favor just to use on me. I'm grateful, I truly am, but I can't help but wonder... If I'da stayed dead... would I have seen my family again?
