“Something is wrong,” Raygak said, holding the ball firmly in hand.
“What is wrong?” Katool asked from beside him, catg her breath.
“Adam is being oday,” the boy said. “Too nice.”
“Adam is always nice,” Katool said, early.
“Not when he wins.”
“He has not won today.”
“Yes,” Raygak said, trying to piece together the puzzle. Unfortunately for him, thinking was not his strong suit.
Adam finished pying with the children before quickly bathing. He whistled as he sauntered his way to the enting shrine, ready and eager to finish off that sword whitalia had given to him to ent.

“Well, that was lucky,” Adam said, staring down at the sword. “The damage is pretty good, and the extra healing is nice.” He swung it around before returning back to the estate.
“What did you make today?” Zijin asked, sitting opposite Sonarot as he ate.
“Fancy seeing you here,” Adam said, staring at the Elder. “Have you e to py with the sword?”
“Yes,” Zijin said. “Since you create magical ons so quickly, I assumed you’d be dohis day.”
“Keeping trae, are you?” Adam said, raising his brow.
“Of course.”
“As always, Auo py with it first.”
“’t I?” Zijin asked.
“No,” Adam said.
“Si is a bde, and the Elder is so eager, perhaps he could py with it first?” Sonarot asked.
Adam squinted his eyes. “Since you insist.” He tossed the bde to the Elder, who quickly grabbed it.
“Another which requires it to be attached to my soul?” Zijin asked.
“It’s because they’re so powerful,” Adam said.
Zijin nodded. “I thought that you may be able to surpass that issue.”
“I’m still a boy yet,” Adam said, smirking at the Orc.
Zijiated with the bde for sometime, before practising with it. “It is a great bde,” Zijin said, before he pced dooubsp;
“What’s that?” Adam asked.
“The payment for your previous bde,” the Elder said.
“Fiantsyer?” Adam said, reag down into the pouch to feel all the gems. “How much did it sell for?”
“Six thousand and three hundred gold.”
Adam whistled. “Yo!”
Lanarot looked up at him as he shouted, before looking to her mother fuidance.
“That’s a lot of money.”
Elder Zijin nodded. “If you are willing, we would also like for you to create a magical spear with a basitment. It does not need any elemental damage, just a normal bonus will do. The Iyr will pay ohousand and five hundred gold.”
“That much?” Adam asked. “Shouldn’t it be a little cheaper?”
“It was what was offered.”
“Alright,” Adam said, nodding his head. “Could I take payment in spell scrolls instead? I o add some more to my spellbook, especially damaging spells.”
Elder Zijin remained silent for a moment. Asking for spells for payment was a difficult request. “Which spells do you require?”
“Uh,” Adam replied. “I’ll just tell you which spells I have and you pay me with whatever you find acceptable, how about that? I use Sed Gate spells now, though soon I’ll be able to use Third Gate spells.”
“Ten First Gate spells should be acceptable,” Zijin said. “If you have a preference for any ten, please tell me, and I will see which spell scrolls we have avaible, as well as which we are fortable sharing.”
“Sure, sure,” Adam said, nodding his head. “Whatever you say, Elder.”
“That sounds great! I’ll start on it tomorrow if I’m feeling lucky.”
The Elder nodded. “I will bring the spear to you in the m.”
“Sounds good.”
The Elder left Adam, who checked all the money he had gained.
Currency Gained: (6) Tiger Eye, (10) White Pearl, (8) Bck Pearl
“Damn,” Adam whispered. “I’m rich. Do you want to go on holiday somewhere?” he asked Lanarot, brushing her hair as she twitched and looked up at him, raising the block up towards him, which ith her saliva.

The spear was long, and the head of the spear was quite long too, easily as long as Adam’s forearm. However, it did look like a fairly well made, but basic spear. The metal which was used was quite on, and there didn’t seem to be anything iing about it.
“I bet if Jurot was here he’d tell me all about the wood,” he said. He huffed moments ter. “Why am I thinking about that traitor? You better not be thinking of him either.” Adam said, looking to his sister. “After what you did to me a few days ago, you better not betray me too.”
Lanarot swalloea, ign Adam pletely as she ate.
Elder Zijin stared at Adam. “If you are not feelioday, you start tomorrow.”
“I’m disappointed Elder Zijin,” Adam said, pg a hand on the man’s shoulder. “Damn, that’s a thick shoulder,” the Half Elf whispered. “You should have gotteo my edy routine.”
“It is too difficult to know when you are joking and when you are not.”
“That’s true,” Adam relented.

Adam spent most of the day enting away quietly, before eventually returning back to the estate, where he saw a few people under some shelter, eating whatever Shikan had made.
“e, Adam,” Shikan said, him a skewer of mixed vegetables and salted fish which had been grilled.
Adam accepted it, blowing onto it quickly, before taking a bite. “Where’s Aunt?”
“She has yet to return from the Rot family estate,” he said.
“Oh,” he said. “I should probably go and say hello to them.” Adam bit into the fish, and paused. ‘Is that why Elder Gold didn’t wao give out more Dragon scales? How many Rot childrehere?’
“There is o think,” Shikan said. “You will meet them soon.”
“I will?” Adam asked.
Shikan nodded. “She has spoken of you to them.”
“What did she say?”
Shikan bit into a vegetable. “You will see.”
“I don’t like the way you said that,” Adam said, narrowing his eyes suspiciously at him.
Eventually the womaurned with Lanarot in her arms, earing a ade of White Wolf fur.
“Look at this adorable little girl in her little coat,” Adam said, accepting her from Sonarot’s arms. “What’s all this?” He brushed his hand along the coat. “Where did you get this from?”
Lanarot reached out for a skewer which was on the ground, but Adam pulled her away, iurning her around to face him.
“Did you have fun without me?” He nuzzled her nose and rocked her in his arms. “Seriously though, where did you get the fur?” Adam asked.
Sonarot stared at him, tilting her head slightly. At first she thought he was joking, but Adam gave her a fused look.
“Yht it,” she said.
“I did?” Adam said, before recalling how he had brought it with his many gifts. “Oh yeah. It wasn’t just Dragon scales, was it?” Adam chuckled. “Aren’t I thoughtful.”
Sonarot smiled. “The coat is loose so that she grow into it.”
“No wonder you look like a little Dwarf,” Adam said, kissing her forehead. “Should I buy you some more fabrid cloth?”
Sonarot smiled, before nibbling on some food. ‘How fortunate I am to have such a sweet brother to my daughter.’

“I guess I should ent…” Adam grumbled. “It won’t be the best thing ever, but since he asked for a basic spear, it should be okay?”
He pyed with the pups, who had grown rather quickly. They were already eating small bits of meat, and were crawling around and pying with one another.
“If I hear you two girls have been naughty, I’ll be speaking with Jaygak and Kitool to tell you off,” he warned, wagging his finger.
“Why does he talk to the Dire Wolves?” Raygak asked, looking at his father.
Jogak stared at Adam. “He is queer.”
Raygak nodded.

“What are these rolls?” Adam grumbled, noting just how he had rolled so many 20’s. “Are you poking fun at me, Mistress Fate?”

“So, is the stoing to end in a few days?” Adam asked, gng over at Sonarot, who was currently wiping Lanarot’s mouth .
“In a few days, yes,” she said. “The storm only sts during the middle month of Duskval.”
“Will it ge because of what happehat day?”
“No. We have not been informed.”
“Do you know what happehat day?” Adam asked.
“No,” Sonarot said. “Now go and ent before you get into trouble with more questions.”
