The Bog of Lost Memory: Traveler's Luck Cantos

Some adventurers believe telling a good story brings luck on the road, that the gods ease the journey so they won't miss the ending. Others hope that an entertainer is harder to stab. Most agree that a tale or two makes the road shorter.

Gladlow and Meese have played the game of Traveler from one continent to the next, trading stories with merchants and highwaymen, mages and clerics, soldiers and thieves. This is one of Meese's favorites, their hunt for an evil bog witch and her terrifying wyrm. Told not in any of the dozen ways he has shared it, but as it truly happened.

A short story featuring two young mages from the Traveler's Luck series. Approximately 8k words, 32 pages. Past tense, third person, limited omniscient.
