    The day of Merry's 10th year of life began like any other. News of the war echoed through the streets as the fish merchant peddled his wares with his father, Walter. It was boring job, barely keeping his attention as people stopped to look at the fish, and he sang to himself as he looked to find someone entertaining to watch.

    Just then, a clatter arose as the latest division of the Peltarch defenders Mobilized to go and fight the vile and evil Eastlanders in the name of the Jewel of the Icelake! Merry watched in awe as the defenders walked past in their shining emerald armor and vicious looking helmets, and knew right then and there that this, this glorius war force was what his dream would be.

    For many years he trained and practiced, with swords and armor and shields! And finally on his twentith day, he was ready! He proudly wrote by candlelight on the finest peice of parchment he could find, his application to the defenders:

    @4005df8ba8:

    Dear Sir Captain Talgrath of the Peltarch Defenders Esquire,

    I Merry Balkavoinich, have composed upon this fine peice of parchement my request to submit myself to the rigors and challenges of becoming an enlisted solider in the greatest fighting force Toril has ever known! Though small in stature I may be, my heart is filled with the determination to protect the Jewel of the Icelake from those upon which would seek to defile thy great lady, and serve it, with the utmost loyalty unto thee and to the great and powerful Sir General Lavindo of the Peltarch Defenders (Esquire) As well as any other important people contained there-in, ectera, ectera, ectera.

    You may be asking what could this halfling do? I will tell you! This halfling has witnessed many a glorius playing of the drumline of the might Peltarch defenders and has been Inspired to do the same in his adulthood! Not only that though, for I am not applying to be a simple drummer! I will serve bravely in the front lines, putting my grand stature and skills of sword play to great use in addition to my natural ability to inspire the troops

    Huzzah!

    Signed, Sincerly,

    Merry Balkavoinich, Halfing, Singer-Extraordianre, and Inspired Citizen of the Jewel of the Icelake!

    P.S. I have never sang in the commons while attried in nothing but a loin cloth

    He proudly marched into Captain Talgrath's office, placed it on her desk, and now… he waits.
