Svagema was sitting on the roof of the barn watching the workers labor in the under the warm sun. The air was humid and without wind. Sounds of animals and various farming tools resounded throughout the farm. A group of vultures circled overhead. Maybe one of the workers had passed out.
He was just about to drift into a lazy slumber when there came a commotion from the barn. The horses were going wild about something.

Svagema sighed and picked up his lasso, twining it about his arm to have access t oadditional length as needed. He jumped down from his roof, landing gracelessly on his feet with a thud, and approached the barn, lasso spinning at the ready.

Svagema enters the barn, but finds nothing there. Nothing except for a small silver vial, which seems to have fallen out of one of the bales of feed. It seems this is what has been disturbing the horses.

Svagema looked around cautiously as he knelt down to look more closely at the vial, examining it carefully before picking it up in a folded handkercheif and wrapping it up gently then inserting it into his pocket.

The vial is crystal clear, and completely free of grime. The liquid inside is silver, and less viscous than water. The glass stopper has a decoration carved into it.

Svegema looked closely at the stopper, seeing if possibly he cold figure out what the contents were from the decoration. He turned and began walking back to the roof of the house to continue watching the goings on of the farm.

The decoration is a swirly pattern; nothing that could help identify the contents. Back on the roof of the barn, the rest of the day passes without incident. It is now night, and the laborers have finished their work for the day.

Svagema climbs down from the roof and wanders inside to fix himself dinner, setting the little vialup against a folded napkin so it stood still and looked more closely at the contents. "Well, you aren't Mercury...I know that..." He said to the little vial, gesturing to it with his fork. "You aren't all..." He made a balling motion with his fingers to demonstrate Mercury's natural tenancy to form drops. "Y'know..." He reached over and picked up the vial again. He shrugged and grasped the stopper. "Well, if you aren't quicksilver, I won't die just from opening you, right?" He removed the glass stopper from the vial...

The silver liquid evaporates into a mist almost immediately. It forms a featureless face and speaks in a voice that sounds like hoes tilling the earth.
"Only one shall I grant of three; Strength, Intellect, or Agility?"

Svagema sits shocked for a moment before raising an eyebrow. He leans closer to the face. "...What matter of gifts would each bestow upon me; These blessings of Strength, Intellect and Agility?"

"Strength shall give you force of life, and to cut through stone with but a knife. Agility shall give control, your body moving with your soul. Intellect gives knowledge vast, and ability to magic cast."

Svagema thought for a moment. "Hmmm...I shall take Agility."

Svagema suddenly feels every fiber in every muscle twitch and tighten, then release. He can feel his body's limits and strengths better, and is more limber. The vial and silver mist are gone.

Svagema looks down at his hands and flexes them. "Agility, eh?" He walks outside and looks upward to the roof of the barn and bends his legs for a jump, then leaps with all his might...

He finds that he can jump about 3 feet in the air straight up. Very good by human standards.

Svagema blinked a few times. "Well, it was good, but not great..." He shrugged and then remembered he hadn't locked up the barn, so he started running that way...

He finds that he makes it the 30 meters to the front of the barn in just several seconds. He is much faster now as well. As he is locking up the barn, a voice comes from behind him.
"Svagema, correct?"

Svagema spins around and presses his back to the door, so as not to be snuck up upon. "Yes?..."

Svagema sees a man dressed in black leather armor and a mask. He has two short swords on his belt, and a long sword on his back. His forearms have metal plates for blocking.
The man responds to Svagema's query by drawing his long sword and slashing at Svagema.

Svagema drops into a low posture and rushes forward, bringing the butt of his scythe into the man's stomach as he brought it to the ready and spun it around to press the head against the man's throat.

The butt of the scythe hits the man, and he rolls away using its force before Svagema can bring his scythe around. The man draws a short sword with his left hand, and lunges forward to stab Svagema.

Svagema expertly loops the lasso around the man's extending wrist, then rushes forward holding the rope to smash the man in the throat with the head of his scythe.

The lasso lands perfectly. But the man stops and pulls back his wrist, bringing it taught, and cuts through it with his short sword. However, focusing on the rope for that instant allows Svagema the opening he needs. The head of the scythe not only hits the man in the jaw, but his right wrist, knocking the long sword from his hand. He is off balance, and wide open.

Svagema spins, using his new nearly superhuman speed to give additional slashing power as his scythe came slicing across the man's neck in an attempt to decapitate his attacker.
