After all that had happened to and around Poom past couple of days, he was not sure how to proceed. Losing a guild mate, a friend was too much for him, and the pain was not disappearing.
How could have I let him die? Those damn demons. Had I been stronger, he would have been alive. dark thought were filling Poom's mind. Poom was thinking, but the sorrow was clouding it I took pride in, what I now know was a small fighting skill. as the pain was eating at him from the inside. I need to get stronger.
Poom spent days with same thoughts in his mind. Thoughts about his weakness, about his friend, about his mother. When it was especially hard, he was drinking himself to blackouts.
One morning Poom woke up with a hangover that was breaking his head, and he knew that it had gone for far too much. He remembered bits and pieces of the things that happened last night, the pain, the crying, the feeling of helplessness, but one more not so bad thing popped in his head. Maybe Master Ponk from Beanstalk Village could teaach me. and that is where Poom knew he needed to go next.
