Frix

Frix is the boyfriend of Leonard Cheerypie.

Frix was a pretty dwarf. That's not something people often say about a dwarf. Muscular, manly, tough... or handsome at most - those are words usually associated with dwarfs. And even though Frix did not lack any of these characteristics, his big dark eyes, curly golden hair and the ever-present smile on his plump lips gave him something extra. Something that made all the girls look twice when he passed them in the streets. Unfortunately for them, the only person Frix ever looked twice at was his friend Leonard. They have know each other since they were kids. Both of them shared a passion for adventure and nature. The long summer days and crisp autumn nights they spent together in the woods play-fighting, climbing trees and watching the stars were some of the Frix's most treasured memories. As they grew older, they also grew closer and their boyhood friendship grew into lover's passion. It's safe to say, the memory of their shy first kiss at the Winter's end feast was definitely Frix's favourite memory.

Over the years, they have accumulated a great amount of lovely moments together. Shared happiness when Frix graduated the Merchant school, shared amazement when Leonard discovered his powers, shared tears when Frix had to move to the capital with his family. They have worked hard to stay close and cherished every moment of this work for it was not hard at all to make sacrifices for someone you truly love and who you know loves you back.

When Frix bought the ring and set up the romantic picnic dinner in the woods, he was sure Leonard's answer would be yes. But when he kneeled down and asked the question smiling at his best friend and the love of his life, his world broke and shattered. Leonard didn't smile back. His face only has shown pain and confusion and... fear? Frix stood up and tried to say something but Leonard just shook his head and stared quickly walking towards the village lights. Frix called after him quietly but Leonard didn't stop or even look back.

After this moment all that Frix was left with was his treasured memories and a short note he found on Leonards table the next morning saying:

"I'll be back... I'm sorry."
