The Wizard Party

To the common folk the life of a merchant may seem to be a dull and boring one. But I declare it is not, it is a life full of many wondrous adventures. For a young elf like me quick and light on the feet and easy to hide it is the perfect life. It is also a life that gives many stories to tell and today I will tell you one. I was far outside of my realm, in a new dangerous place I had never been before. A land full of monsters and many other mysterious dangers lurking around every corner. Traveling through the forests running as fast as I could, trying to reach my destination and hoping not to be discovered. I ran out of a world of trees to be greeted by wondrous and peaceful new road full of green fields as far as my eyes could see. Built in the hillsides was a lovely quaint with a large oval stone door surrounded by bushes with low windows on both sides showing in. On the door transcribed in a glowing green bright light, the etching stated. "This is a wizard door if you are not a wizard you cannot open it." A great curiosity took over my body and I reached out to turn the knob of the large stone door. I did not open, It was not as if this door was locked, my hand simply phased through the door as if it was a phantom. I stepped into the bushes and peered through the window and what I saw before me I could not believe. Five full grown wizards dressed in their mage outfits with large pointy hats, with large untidy monstrous beards and they appeared to be as tall as the tallest trees. They sat around a large table enjoying tea and cake, playing board games, sharing tales of many grand adventures and using their wands to practice spells with one another. One of the wizards came stomping up the stairs, I leaped quickly hiding in the bushes. He came out of the door and stood raising his hands, stretching and yawing. A real wizard stood near me an ordinary elf but, he did not stay long as soon as he came out he rushed back into the door to continue with his party affairs. I rushed out of the bushes and continued running down the road in order to make my delivery, as I ran only one thing was on my mind. The great stories I could tell my grandchildren, such as the time an ordinary young elf like me witnessed a great wizard party.
