{{TErow| 1 | Day 1-1| Tark was watching the pirates load their army and resources onto their ships, but he was preoccupied about his people.

{{TErow| 1 | Day 1-2| Tark swam for a long time until he reached the subterranean kindom of the warlock lords. A small colony of nix, independent from the island kingdom where Tark ruled, had lived in these underwater caverns until the warlocks conquered and enslaved them. It was time to free those nix, and also to show them who their true ruler was. Tark was the last of an ancient line of nix kings. Something terrible had happened to their race: as a result of some mysterious disease, many of their eggs now turned out to be empty. As a result, the population had slowly dwindled, and the once flourishing people had been reduced to a mere handful of nix on one small island and the surrounding waters.<p>Though to the casual eye he seemed like a slow-moving and slow-thinking reptile, Tark absorbed information quickly. He knew that the lords of Nighon were in the throes of a civil war right now. If he were to invade their lands and take over one of their cities, they wouldn't notice immediately.</p>}}

{{TErow| 8 | Day 8| Tark knew that he couldn't save everyone, but perhaps he could save the majority. Those he is unable to rescue will have to flee and fend for themselves if they want to live. After interrogating the civilians of his newly-occupied city, Tark learned that the lords were busy fighting and wouldn't notice the loss of this city right away. Additionally, Tark found out that the captured nix are working in the caverns one level below the castle. The poisonous vapors of that level are deadly to minotaurs, humans, and troglodytes, but the nix hardly notice it. The warlocks particularly prize their nix slaves for this trait.}}
