How Garvish met Quililia.
Deep in the caverns of the Underdark, the demon halfling Garvish wandered around, looking for flesh to tear apart. Suddenly he came across a gnome lady. But this was no normal gnome, he could tell. Her name was the Duchess Quililia. A woman of royalty. The halfing had seen her around but had never had the chance to introduce himself. This seemed like as good a time as any.
The halfling stopped in front of the gnome Duchess and began his introduction. Although a demon, Garvish had the ability to use a bit of charm to get what he wanted. This case was no different. After some time, the two finally parted ways, but not after the Duchess gave a few things to the halfling Garvish as a gift.
Some time later, the demon halfling sat in his hall waiting for orders from his Underlord. He was to carry out a task, one that would earn him new rank and status in his clan. His order was to break into the Duchess's home and bring back a piece of the very mushroom the Duchess lived in. Hiring the service of a pixie named Yorkin, the halfling made his way into the home and took the piece he needed.
Once the Duchess came home she saw what had happened, her guards pointing and holding up a single piece of evidence. It was the item the Duchess had given the halfling. The Duchess was infuriated. For weeks she kept an eye out for the halfling. A couple of times she even found the halfling out and about and knocked him out cold for others to come across.
Finally she got over it and just ignored the halfling, until the day he walked past her house and saw the door open. Wide open it stood, inviting him to go in. So he did. The halfling walked in, and this time the guards let him inside. He looked around, looking through the Duchess's many things for something that might be of importance.
Suddenly he could feel a presence creeping up behind him, but before he could turn around the Duchess had swung her mace and knocked the halfling out again. Even more angry this time, the Duchess took from the halfling the key he picked up and pushed his sleeping body into the road, screaming, "Stay out of my house!" From that day on the halfling kept a good distance from the Duchess and her home.
