Chimper #1105
The most misunderstood trainee in all The Crystal Highlands of Armaria had only been trying to polish a rock. It was a simple task, assigned by a senior wizard. But Chippu approached it with the solemn focus their family had always preached. While they stared intently at the crystal, a nearby monolith spun wildly from a magical overload; the other students whispered. Later, while muttering an old-fashioned cleaning recipe, a visiting scholar mistook it for a forgotten incantation. When Chippu tripped and flailed to catch their polishing cloth, a sudden rainstorm broke. By sunset, rumors of a silent, unassuming archmage spread through the fortress. Chippu noticed none of it, presenting the finished work with a proud nod. The rock was flawlessly, beautifully, and utterly non-magically clean.
