Master Of None

Walker had many things in his storage that he had purchased and couldn’t wait to bring back. He dwelled on who he would give what to and how they would be amazed by the things he gave them. He had a feeling that the high priest would like the animal shaped charms that brought a steady calming mana to them. Mostly because he was always plagued by the chaos of the cathedral and the healing matters he needed to attend to.

”I want to give those animal charms to everyone we know. So many people help us out and I think having some calm in their life could help.” Su was thinking of the people at the forge but also those at the adventurers guild. 

”I am sure Clara would get the most use out of it. We might want to get like five for her, she might need more though.” Walker could only imagine having to give her ten to deal with the stress from the daily insanity at the guild.

”Yes! Clara needs a really good souvenir, she deserves it for keeping up with everything. I know she must have sent plenty of quests for us, but we have been too busy to take them.” Su was a little sad that she had been letting Clara’s effort go to waste, but the party was not aware of her current duty as acting guild master while Ibis was away.

”Well, then let’s keep looking. I feel like there are surprises around every corner. We might find something interesting to bring back. To be honest I think we should look for someone who wants to travel to the kingdom as a merchant to establish proper trade routes. If they can do that we could have the people we have met visit and sell their wares themselves.” Walker wanted this mostly because he thought it would help connect the kingdoms more.

”That could make things much easier for when elves start to adventure out and explore more. I expect there will be many young elves, humans, and demi-humans who see the chance to make a name for themselves in a new place.” Su could already see the new faces trying to enter the cities. 

”I think it will be a little crazy for a few months, but after things get established it will be like any other day. I am just interested to see how people adapt and our daily life changes. The elves will bring a lot of things we don’t have or can’t make in our kingdom. But we will bring plenty of our own things. I think our kingdom is more of a connecting place. We aren’t particularly on bad terms with anyone which is the best way for us to become a mediator.” 

Walker had started to look at the big picture. This was a point he was waiting to bring up when the king gets to the kingdom. Su was following along and would also be harping on the same thing. What the kingdoms had to offer were major advances in knowledge, but what was bigger was the fact that they could all improve the life of every citizen.

”What about the enforcers? Do you think they will be able to maintain the laws that protect the forests?” Su was a little worried that they might have some trouble if there was a major influx of travelers.

”I think we should guide them toward a slow opening. Limit travelers on both sides so that they can adjust over the course of a year. First, start with higher class businesses and officials to lay ground work then start with the younger generations to tests things out. After that, we can start to let more and more adventurers since the guild should be established after a few months.” 

The two could see the adventurers guild playing a major part in connecting everything. It already acted as a major bonding place for all kinds of races that would form parties and take on quests. It was literally founded to help others. ”I am very excited to see the guild that will be built here. I wonder how they will teach the new employees in regards to the elven culture. I could see there being many gathering quests.” 

”That would make sense. The elves would be able to teach a lot when it comes to herbs and fruits that grow in the area. Any new adventurer that came would be an expert before they knew it. Actually, if an alchemist came and took quests they could get ahead in that respect too.” The more they spoke the more things they saw that would improve each of the races.

Eventually, the two walked all the way to the square they had stood above the other day. It was filled with more elves who were all giving them curious glances as they passed by. Su and Walker had quickly become a gossip point for those that would usually wander through the market.

”Should we check out that little shop there? It looks like it has some elemental mana crystals, I know you are looking for more with dual elements.” Walker snapped to attention and locked his eyes on the shop Su was mentioning. He was realizing that the more he actively looked the closer he would get to have the materials he wanted for his new magic staff.

”There is no other place that I would rather check out right now.” Walker couldn’t help but smile brightly. Su was right by his side happy to find another new place to look at. She was greatly enjoying being one of the first to explore the elf city. The only thing she wanted more was to bring her parents to see everything too. 

”I can already see some light and water dual elemental mana crystals,” Walker said this and picked up his paces.
