"Yeah...I know you saw what I did to that woman." Zharid said hesitantly. We would've preferred not to tell her, but he knew that if he didn't, it would make it all the harder for her to trust him.
"Among my people I'm called an illusionist. As the name implies, I can create illusions." Zharid pointed at the ground in front of him. A small plant made of crystal began to grow out of the ground. It reached two feet tall before it began to flower. Zharid frowned in concentration. The plant began to shudder and then rapidly began to grow into a tree. Once it reached it's maximum height, the crystal tree shattered. Before the razor crystal shards rained down on their heads, he made the illusion vanish.
"There are two ways to create an illusion." Zharid explained. "One is to artificially create the sight or sound, and the other is to make someone's mind believe that they are seeing or hearing something they are not." He paused a moment to let Cass absorb this.
"What I did to the woman was tricked her mind into thinking she was in a relaxed state. Causing things like that to happen is more complicated than a simple illusion, but I've been using this ability since I was child, so I've had time to practice. If I needed to, I could make someone believe they were having a seizure and make their body spasm, though I prefer not to do such things." He told her.

*Arches an eyebrow. Eyes go wide, then Cass calms her composure again.*
No...I guess'n that ain't be'n a good thing to do.
*Looks at Zharid.*
Thankee for a tellin' me.

Meanwhile...In the South the stranger awakens. "Ouch...My head is killing me.."he mumbles to himself. "I wonder if there are anybody around that can help me figure out where and who I am."
The sranger thinks for a moment...if i'm going to be here for a while i need to find a name to call myself...i'll think about it on the way to wherever i am going...He walks for a while and sees something in the distance. "WOW!!...Water..I am extreamly thirsty right now..I guess I will rush over and get some, and maybe someone else will be there."

*Cass frowns for a moment she senses something but does not understand it. She then whips her head around looking farther South and seeing someone coming towards them.*
Who be that? Do ya know 'em?

Zharid looked in the direction that Cass was. The person she saw was still some distance away, but close enough to make out most of their features.
"Doesn't look familiar to me." Zharid told her. He watched the oncoming figure, curious of their intentions.

AS the stranger approaches...he notices there are a couple of people staring at him curiously...before i go any further, should i extreamly cautious about these people??...
He walks up to the guy and says,"Good day, I was wondering if I could pass through to get some water, and if anybody could help me. I have nothing except my sword, staff and the clothes on my back. I have no idea of where i am from or what my name is..." For a minuit the stranger looks at the girl," You...You look..familiar to me...Of all the things i remember, your face is one...do I know you??"

Zharid shaked his head, not really understanding what's going on. "We don't own the water. You can do as you please."
He walked over to where Cass was standing and lowered his voice. "What are we going to do about him?"

*Glances over at the man that had come to the oasis.*

The stranger walks cautiously over to the oasis and removes a canister from his waist. "I hope i wasn't intruding in on anything. If I was, I am extreamly sorry." The stranger stands up and turns to look at the two. "Might I ask the name of which either of you are called?"
As the stranger waits patiently for an answer, he suddenly remembers a name that has been whispered to him in his dreams. after a moment he decides to take this name, but does he want to reveal it at this time or wait until a more trusting moment...Tevok...yes this will be his name.

Zharid looked at the man. "My name is Zharid. I'm afraid we can't linger; we have business to attend to far to the south and we don't have time to waste."

"I just came from there...Do you mind if I join you?? I really don't have anywhere else to go. And who knows, maybe I could be of some help. Or even you guys could help me figure out who I am."
"I am sorry, but I just can't walk aound without going by some sort of name. I keep hearing this name in me sleep, like someone whisoering it to me. The name is Tevok. "
Tevok reaches out to shake Zharid's hand. And then Cass's, but when he grabbed Cass's, someting pulled him into his mind. Some sort of connection, a sort of earlier relationship between minds....

Tevok awakens from this dream and realises that he is still holding Cass's hand. Embarassingly he lets go and shys away for awhile. Turning to Zharid, Tevok asks, "So it is alright if i join you two? I wont be any trouble at all. I just need to find out my name and where I am from."
...even tho i have a funny feeling about this Zharid person, i feel really attached to Cass. I dont know what it is, but I feel somehow connected to her. I just don't remember ever seeing her before in my life. She even looks lost, not even from this world. But I imagine I do as well...
