Again, here is some more backstory on Drashan. I was bored and thought I would write something!
From the servant?s eyes?.
From the servant?s spirit?.
The church bells rang out, a new day in Waterdeep had begun.
In the Farsight estate multitudes of servants were already awake and preparing the families morning meal, setting aside documents for review upon William Farsights desk, preparing to clean and maintain the Estate grounds, none the less to say, the servants were preparing for another busy day.
Drashan Farsight shifted from his slumber as one of the servants came into his room, swung the curtain opened and glanced upon the sleepy young man. She sighed, nothing was different today. Despite this mans lack of tact, sharp tongue, and loud mouth. He still managed to awake with a new maiden in his bed almost every morning. This astounded her. Maybe it was his family?s name that aided him in this endeavor she thought to herself. The servant girl shook her head at the sight, just like every morning. She, like many of the other servants had hoped that Drashan would be different from the rest of his all high and mighty, ?we can have what ever we want? family. But every morning she was disappointed. She moved to the side of his bed and spoke ?Sir, your morning meal is served? Her voice was meek, yet respectful.
I could see Drashan looking up at me. Blinking at the morning rays of light cascaded into his eyes. ?Uh.. um? Oh yeah.. Right.. My meal! A bountiful meal for the skinny and malnourished?? He had chuckled and simply pushed away from the young woman that had fallen asleep with him. I turned around and headed to his drawers, pulling out and setting aside a rather plain outfit, my master preferred to dress this way. This always brought a smile to my face. At least he was not lavish like the rest of his family.
?We go into the city today, yes I know what your going to say?Again! But you were just there yesterday! Heh? Trust me, we will not be gallivanting around the slums today. No, I had in mind today for a bit of shopping. You need a new dress? something that shows those splendid curves alittle!? I could hear his common chuckle as he arose from his bed and snatched the outfit I had set aside for him. He waves me off and simply told me to await in the corridor. So I did.
Soon Drashan came out wearing the outfit I had set aside for him. But, he was wearing his father?s cloak. The lavish family colors and symbol boldly staring at you from the back. He simply shrugged as I moved to question him. ?I could not find my own, and I thought? Hey this looks nice, its warm, and not me.. Why not wear something, not me today!? Again he chuckled. We moved down to the kitchen where I brought out his meal, after eating the meal. We left for town.
?Sir? I know it is not my place to question?? My voice was raised, but just before I could question the rather? revealing dress before me. He raised his hand. ?It is not the place of a servant to question his master, fair girl?? He smirked. ?Besides if I?m to bed you like the rest of my servant girls tonight. I want some appealing that my eyes can look upon, so my mind can forget what you really are.? He flashed a wink and paid the vendor. His comment cut deep. But, I knew that was just his way. My master never really regarding others feelings when it came to his comments. But? Bed me? Why me? My mind started to reel. Usually he only bed a servant when they were no longer required for services, maybe he just liked me? Like when his heart was stolen by that one? He often commented on how I reminded him of her. I did not know if I should feel sick at the thought, or praised?
As the day stretched on, my master had me dress in a rather colorful nobles summer gown. He had even paid for my hair to be fixed and dressed. I no longer looked like a servant but a rather attractive woman of some meaning.. Maybe that was my masters purpose today.. Maybe he truly did want to see someone else with him, in his bed tonight.
Soon, as we usually do in a day, we found ourselves at a local inn my master likes to visit on the corner of the slums. I moved to take off his cloak. Seeing it fit that he should not wear his fathers robe to such a place. He had already been mistaken for his father on several occasions today. But, the master stopped me. Simply shaking his head. ?You will understand in time beautiful lie? His face flashed with a coy grin. ?Now wait here? I shall not be to long.?
That is when everything changed.
I had waited outside for him, pacing and glancing up at the sky. How long had he been in there? My heart was already racing from the thoughts of tonight, what would really happen? What was the purpose of today? But then my heart jumped again as I felt hands grabbing at me, pulling me back towards the alley. I could not resist them, my attacker was too strong. I could not scream, his hand was already around my mouth. Thrashing did not help for soon I found myself pulled into the alley and tossed down some stairs. Crashing against the solid wood door. I felt darkness overtake me.
?So? here is the young servant girl I see??
?Yes.. And as you asked, she is prepared in the way you wished?
?Good, good? The towns folk have thought you were your father no? And that she was some young nobles daughter??
?Again yes, every thing went as planned sir? I awoke to these voices? Awoke to hear my masters chuckle. What was going on?! I tried to scream my thoughts, my questions. But I was gagged, something was blocking my voice, troubling my breath. As my eyes adjusted to the dim room I say my master, dressed still in his fathers cloak with the hood drawn over his head, smiling softly to me. Then came the grab at my neck from behind.
I once again tried to scream, to no avail. Drashan? my master, stepped in close and stooped down. A sick? almost twisted smile upon his face. He reached forward and removed the gag. ?Scream my dear lady? scream and all your prayers will be answered.?
And I did? I could now feel something cold running across my neck, then? Everything went dark once more?.
?.Drashan emerged from the tavern just as a commotion began to pour about the establishment. With his father?s family?s cloak drawn up and over his figure. He quickly made his way through the crowd. He vanished into the streets just as someone yelled. ?Is that not William Farsight?? another could be heard saying. ?Where is his young maiden??
