Scourge of Menechtarun, the bandit known as Hami the Jackal preyed on travelers and merchants throughout the Valley of Raiyum. The guards could not capture him. Private mercenaries could not kill him. Finally, Raiyum the Wizard-King had an idea: he would dress in the clothing of a wandering dervish and find the Jackal himself. Raiyum removed his crown and royal vestiments and dressed in a simple robe, staff and sandals and set off into the sand-covered waster.

After traveling for the better part of a day, Raiyum stopped by a watering hole for a drink. A man dressed in black robes approached and drew a scimitar. Raiyum feigned distress and fell to his knees. 'Oh, do not kill me sir! I am a humble dervish and have no gold nor treasure to give you!' The black-robed man laughed. 'Foolish old man, I am the Jackal! I do not kill for gold or treasure. I kill because it is my nature. It is what I do and who I am.' Raiyum smiled and spoke a magic phrase, summoning a demon from the sands. 'And I am Wizard-King Raiyum! That is who I am!' The Jackal fell to his knees this time and trembled before Raiyum's arcane power. 'Mighty King Raiyum, forgive me! Please, let me live and I will serve you unto death!'

And so this is how a bandit became one of the most feared men in Raiyum's kingdom.
