Trist of a Tale pt.3
As we pack up my belongings onto the family horse, Stella continues to comfort my mother as a crowd starts to gather far away from the house, curious eyes gazing at us from windows nearby and from around corners of homes. I tie up my sleeping pack to the saddle of the horse, I can see Mother sobbing from my position and my mind wanders to what she told me while we were packing.

Trist of a Tale
The light gently showed through the rust-colored leaves above my head, the crisp wind flinging the loose leaves into the air and out of view. I could hear the other children laughing in the background along with Durn’s hammer striking an iron tool of some sort, driving his hammer rhythmically onto the metal, sharply ringing through the air. Although I should be brushing out the horses’ manes, the breeze called to me, and before I knew it I was resting beneath the big oak by Marion’s place. My eyes grew ever heavier and I felt my view of the sky disappear under my eyelids.

Dungeons and Dragons Classes
Warlocks are the magical caster in Dungeons and Dragons that has made a pact with an otherworldly creature or deity in exchange for magical aptitude and power now. There are many patrons (the magical power granters) that a Warlock could find themselves bound to. You could have sworn your soul away to a demon/devil, or had your mind awakened to the horror and power granted by Cthulu or a Kraken, or even magically awakened by the fleeting whim of an Archfey! An excellent example of a Warlock in modern media is Eleven from Stranger Things who is bonded to the Demogorgon from the Upside Down dimension. She was an unwilling host for magic as opposed to choosing to have it but regardless, the patron of magical power that was the Demogorgon did not have the best relationship with their warlock as she was constantly trying to thwart his plans with his own powers. She would have been a normal girl if it weren't for her gaining telekinetic powers and more from the Upside Down!

Dungeons and Dragons Classes
The fighter is the character that most people would associate with the rugged ex-military mercenary type. These martial characters are the backbone of the weapon-wielding classes presented in Dungeons and Dragons and examples of these can be found in many books and movies as well. Gimli from the Lord of the Rings trilogy is an excellent example of a fighter. Strong, resilient, armored, shield and one-handed weapon. But in DnD this isn't the limit of the fighter either, they can also be the brutes with the large two-handed claymores or glaives, they could also be a highly trained crossbowman in leathers and attacking from range. Fighters allow you to be flexible in what kind of combatant you wish to play as they have been trained in all forms of weaponry and armor in the game.

Candy Tier-List
So it is no surprise that candy is a fun and exciting treat to have for yourself or to share with others! But deciding between all the different choices can be hard if you are an indecisive person! This is an opinion, but not all candy is created equal in deliciousness. I found a fun tiermaker list that I spent about 10 minutes creating my own Tier List for candies commonly found in the US. Here are those results!
