Journey to Venberk

The first three days on the road had been rather pleasant, Syd managed to relax and he got to know the rest of the caravan, out of his 21 traveling companions he got especially close to Lumn the caravan healer, and two entertainers traveling with the group, Levani the dancer and Chermi the acrobat as they introduced themselves the two of them were also supposedly tweens and while they certainly looked similar enough Syd's eyes revealed a different truth, Levani seemed to be who she claimed but her "brother" was definitely not, instead of a half-elf acrobat, Chermi or rather Mete'el Va'al-Si was an elf spy, not that Syd cared too much about this revelation after all it wasn't like he was being truthful about his identity himself.

However, on the fourth day, Syd started to become restless and irritable, the reason for his foul mood turned out to be that he hadn't killed any monsters for an extended period of time, and now his very soul was demanding he start hunting his brethren, thankfully the urge wasn't at a level he couldn't resist but it was still stressing him out which in turn made his libido flare up but without an outlet for his desire this only stressed him further.

And as if that vicious cycle wasn't enough at the seventh day the caravan got attacked by bandits and just when Syd thought he might be able to vent some of his frustration at these raiders his body froze up, these people did not perceive him as a combatant and had ignored him, furthermore, they were not part of the conflict of light and dark and as such his wish to harm them caused his body and mind to go numb.
