Elminster in Hell by Ed Greenwood

When I began, my Charmander was level five
Fighting in grass, I hardly made it out alive
Pidgey hurt me with Gust and Sand-Attack

Stan: And then you'll get your revenge?
Sergei:No, Smith. From the third or perhaps fourth harvest renge-plants, I will make a vegetable stew, and season it perfectly. With revenge!
