The Strange Being

‘Well let it begin’ after waiting so long I finely madid Inside ‘Dam that line was long, almost lost an hole hour, oh well I’m In side that the main thing, let’s see what here?’ I begin walking around one of the big conventions that only happen once and a while around here where I live.

Well how rude. Let me introduce myself. My name is Alexander, most call me Alex or Big Al for short and by the sound of my name I’m tall, standing at 6’2, brown meh length hair with a blond halo, never like short hair but It at the right length I want it. Pair of glasses on my face started wearing them sines I was 8-9-year-old, can’t renumber really such a long time ago but now I’m 19 turning 20 in 4 months, wow I feel old… anyway my favorite color is black & purple, given away by the clothes I’m wearing.

Starting of with my Black tracks form a brand named Absent, also a black and pink tee-shirt, and over the top is a half black half purple jumper from PARK, along with my favorite new purple hat form Absent. Meh the shoes I wore were nothing special to say, just some nice comfy shoes that I can walk in all-day.

Now back to the convention I’m at, Twitch Con… Why? because why not? You got to go once in your life… or Is that just me… anyway, I’m here now let have fun. I started with a-bit of shopping for some friends back home, so I go off to the stalls and begin my search for something cool… and well, where the hell do I begin, There are stalls for almost everything here… so this might take a while… but one stall peeks my interest while I’m walking around. Nothing shady or anything about it but what it has for sale catches my attention…

“Has my stall court your attention sir?” a voice said out of nowhere, until I get closer to the stall and look at the back where it’s a-bit darker... ‘No way, it can’t be who I think it is, is it?’ I thought, coming closer I could make it out who it is… “well, well if it isn’t The Travelling Merchant from Terraria, what a surprise!, was thinking I was going to see the merchant from resident evil… thou I’m not going to compline and yes something in you shop has peeked my interested…” I said looking at the middle age man in a blue leather coat, with a Victorian grey shirt, red trousers, and grey fancy hush puppy shoes and a blue top hat with a rad band around it with a white father sticking out on his head… but what court me attention is the dark shade of purple eyes looking at me

The travelling Merchant gave a quick bark of a laugh “Ha, on the contrary my good sir, thou he is here somewhere selling his goods… thou I don’t think he will have anything that might interest you, unlike my stall hmm?” he said while raising a eyebrow at the last part

“well you’re not wrong” I said while looking over what he has and I must say I found something I like, hanging near the back was a black trench coat with purple trimming and the datils that when into it was beautiful to say the least.

The Merchant had seen where I was looking and let out a hearty laugh “I see you found something you like, thou I must say that is strange choices, and that coming from me… thou I think it might suit you better than me” he turn around and pull down the trench and placed it down on the counter and I was getting a good look at the details on it and it looked so much more better up close

The details were that of a dragon with an outline of an hourglass where the pupil would be and purple and orange flame along the of the sleeves and bottom of the trench, I was loving it even more just looking at it.

Looking up I ask “How much for this? And do you have anything else like this? Because I’m loving this already and can’t say no to buying this” I ended with the big stupid grin on my face ‘Please have more’ I thought after saying that… and low and be holed he said the best thing that could make my day.

“Ha I sure do my good sir, give me a second to grab them for you” He laugh bending down under the counter he pulled out a hat, a pair of wings and 6 strange orbs. Standing back up and looking me in the eye he said “This is all I have that is related to that trench coat my good sir, thou I might place something else in… maybe” he finished shrugging “what do you say do we have a deal?” he ask tilting his head to the side with an odd smile

‘Hmm well nothing looks shady to say, but that last look is odd to the least, but I see nothing wrong hmm’ I thought with the battle in my mind ‘Ah screw it, what the worst that could happen’ I finely thought ending the battle in my head “Yea sure, you got a deal, so how much for all of this?” I said while pointing at all the stuff on the counter

Seeing the Merchant raise a hand to chin he began to speak “hmm, well I’ve been trying to sell the trench coat for a while now the hat also goes with it as well… I might be able to give it to you for half the price as for the wings and the 6 orbs, hmm I might be able to lower their prices as well umm over all it could come to $350 maybe $300 but that is the lowest I can give to you, still need to make a profit you know…” he finished pulling his hand a way from his chin while shrugging “So what do you say will that work?” he ask while looking me dead in the eye waiting for my response.

“You my good Travelling Merchant, have a deal $350 it is, done and done deal” I said happy that the price isn’t going to break my bank balances “Splendid my good sir $350 it is, now is that Eftpos or cash?” He asks with a smile “Eftpos” I replied. Seeing him pull out an eftpos machine and punching in the price. Handing it over to me I see that it said $350.

“Aaannnddd there you go $350 sweet” after putting in my pin and seeing that it accepted the pay, I handed back the machine, seeing him nod and putting the machine back under the counter, then seeing him then look up at me smiling oddly

“Thanks for you purchase and we hope you enjoy your new life, oh and don’t worry about your stuff, aka home and items they have already been sent to you sister and also your money in your account has also been transferred to you sister account, so don’t worry… oh and sir don’t go starting stuff you can’t finish alright… any way time for you to be going so good bye!” he said while giving me the tip of his top-hat

“Wait, WHAT” I said but before I could say anything else the world around me when black and the last thing, I sore was him tipping his hat at me…


“Uurrr man that hurts… wait what?” I said out loud ‘Wait, where am I? and why is it so quiet and is that trees rustling?’
