Master Of None

The three had enjoyed their meal and Walker bade farewell to the elf that had set up shop with his new item. He was sure this would do well when other adventurers and merchants came and made sure to let the elf know. 

”Alright, let’s go find the others. I have a feeling that Remey will be done with the potions by now but who knows where Gil and Su are. They could have moved on anywhere.” Walker genuinely didn’t know if Gil and Su would have made it back to the temporary home, the tree house. 

”I believe that they would be home brother, Gil was cleaning up his arrows but mentioned that he was going to see miss Alma before the meetings.” Onyx had been paying attention to everyone earlier in the morning and heard that Gil was thinking of showing off his new arrows to Alma. 

”He’s going to show off then? Well, he should be back soon anyways. I just hope that we can all get cleaned up and that we will have decent clothing for the meetings. I feel like Su would have already found something though. She had a knack for this kind of thing.” Walker had been worried that they would not look the part as mediators to these kind of bonding meetings. 

” Sister says that she will make sure her scales are the shiniest there are.” Onyx translated Midnights’ words flawlessly. 

”I am sure that your scales will be the best and brightest out of any there.’ Walker didn’t have the heart to say this would be because no one else had scales really but he let Midnight puff up her chest and walk tall on the way back to the tree house. 

By the time they made it there Walker could already hear a soft snoring coming from inside. The moment he opened the door he was met by the sight of Remey asleep at the table with a half eaten meal next to her. Gil had taken up the floor with some newly laid out crystal arrows in front of him. 

”Those arrows look pretty interesting, were they a gift?” Gil started to turn bright red without any other words making Walker want to tease him more. But he thought better of it and sat down to check the arrows out himself. 

’ Crystal arrow (empty)

The crystal arrow is a staple arrow made by many different elves. They offer the unique ability to store high amounts of a single elemental mana. They will cause various effects when infused and shot with a bow. They will shatter upon use making them a single use attack.’

Walker had already expected this kind of appraisal but had wanted to see if there was anything additional to the arrows he had not known. 

”Alma thought that these would be useful for me since I am an arcane marksman and have never used this kind of arrow. She said she knew my arrows and the new ones the trainees and I tested are better but I think these will be great too. I have arrows for every situation now.” Gil was like a kid who had just been handed a mountain of candy and was trying to eat one of everything. 

”These would have been great for the hordes of horned rabbits. If only we had come here sooner.” Walker could only lament the fact that they had come to the forest elf city too late. At the end of the day, they would have never warned anyone of the hordes if they had come somewhere like here earlier. 

”Well, now I have them for the future,” Gil affirmed that he would be saving them for when they needed them most. ”Remey brought that bag over there full of the night vision potions. Apparently, she was able to fully master the recipe on the second try. She said that she had much better luck than she had expected.” Gil had only spoken with Remey for a few moments but had gotten a decent bit of the information about the potions. 

”Let me check them out then. I have been pretty curious since she mentioned them simply because we have never really bought them or heard of them in detail.” 

’ Medium tier Night  vision potion

This potion is able to give the consumer the ability to see in the dark as any night time predator. The effect will last for six hours. The potion has one minor side effect of making sleeping harder. This can also be used in small doses to help one stay awake during the early hours of the morning.’

”Oh, this will be perfect for the long night shifts when we set up camp at night. Plus if we add it to the soup at breakfast it might wake up a little faster.” Walker could see some minor and major uses. The fact that it would be perfect for the night watch was a huge weight off their shoulders. It is a common fear for every traveler that at night they will be ambushed by monsters who hunt in the dark. 

”I want to use them for night hunting. There are animals and monsters that only come out at night and this will be my key to getting them.” Gil had an entirely other thought on what he would use them for. 

”No, we should save them for when we are in the dwarf city. Since they are under the ground in caves there may be some places where it is too dark to see. Onyx and Midnight may not need them but we will.” Remey had been awakened by their conversation and was stretching while she gave her own ideas. 

”I would say good morning but it is nearly night again. How was the potion making? Was it all you had wanted it to be?” Gil had already slightly filled Walker in on these things but he still wanted to hear Remey’s thoughts on the matter.
