Weapon Story
Once upon a time there was a wizard who lived with his wife.

They owned land, and their assets increased every year.

But fortune has a habit of disappearing when you need it most. When a drought struck their village, the man decided to visit the local spring to dedicate a prayer to the water spirit.

The prayer was heard. The water spirit appeared. "Don't worry," it said.

"I'll grant you a bountiful harvest of the likes you've never seen. There's just one condition... You must give me that which is most important to you."

The man was prepared to lose all of his land as long as he could return home knowing that the village was saved.

A midwife greeted him when he returned home.

"Congratulations," she said. "You have a son."

The man now understood the water spirit's true intentions. So he grabbed his staff and headed back to the spring.

"I'll never give you my son," he declared, casting a spell.

"Then I'll take what's most important to you in this moment," the water spirit countered, taking the man's weapon and killing him.

The water spirit then fed upon the man's oh so sweet offering of "despair."
