Being a mediocre sorcerer at best, Arthur lacked the talent and skills of his older brother Rhiann and initially refused Maranna’s gift of the purple staff Atlas. The winged temptress whispered a melody in the young sorcerer’s ear and convinced the younger brother of her greatest friend to change his mind. She massaged his back and pursed her lips to kiss the young sorcerer. Beguiled by her gentle touch, he leaned forward to accept the buss, but she pulled away at the last moment.
“I must not!” she declared.
Dazed and confused, the shy sorcerer accepted the staff from the Siren.
“I’ll take this artifact because it’s my brother’s wish that I do so. I’ve never understood his way of thinking or known his goals. I’ve favored the study of history and literature. The people of this township are growing stronger and more loyal to one another. I’ll make this relic an heirloom of the people of Koorlost,” Arthur declared.
Maranna said, “I trust you’ll find among them the sorcerer most worthy of bearing this fine staff.”
Arthur Seigh Klarje leveled the staff before him and marveled, “It really feels good in one’s hand. What…I didn’t know how to cast…I can’t…well I suppose I can! Magick is a wondrous thing! Siren, I’m empowered!”
