"Oh no- not again" mumbled the phantom, as he stumbled back towards his favorite drinking spot.
"What does he mean, 'not again'?" one villager asked another.
"I'm not completely sure, but- well, this one time, when he was a bit more drunk than usual, he told me that the last village he lived in got invaded by werebeasts. He said he fought 'em and gave a good accounting of himself, but that he eventually had to run to save his life. Said that's why he drinks so much- to forget all the friends he lost."
"Well, that's a bunch of nonsense. That guy can't even stand up straight, much less give a 'good accounting' of himself to werebeasts."
"Yeah, you're probably right. Best to never listen to a word that man says. Can't nobody tell fibs like a drunk."
