As the team left, Tareo was sat down by the old man, who had a grave look plastered on his wrinkled face. Tareo felt beads of sweat dripping down his forehead and a hunk of air stuck in his throat.

"So," Algumn grumbled. "I get that you're eager to kill some brash beast. I get that, lad. But you've got to understand that danger lies ahead." The old scottish man sighed, sinking into a throne-like chair to the left of a crackling fire. "Trust me, I know that..." Tareo shivered as his green eyes darted to the windows.

"Yes, lad, you do. And boy, are you lock to be breathin' now." His booming laugh echoed through the room. "But, I want you to be prepared. So, I invested in a sacred Motheress scroll."

Tareo's whole world paused, before shattering loudly. "What? Those are- they're even rarer than a Heartweilder." Tareo exclaimed. "Yes, laddie. And you'd better be damn glad you have one now." Algumn snapped, but his toothy grin, revealing his golden tooth, betrayed him.

Tareo stumbled put, only to find all four members of his team awaiting him. Eleazar giggled. "Soooo. You got s Motheress scroll, yeah?" His grin didn't match his face at all. The smile was mischievous, devilish, yet his face mad him look like a young, cheerful twelve year old. His height didn't do him wonders, either.

A collective Gasp sounded throughout the group. "How did you- why did you- what did you-" Tareo uttered rapidly, shaking the shorter.

"Oh. The door was open, and Des tried to hold me back, but I bit him!" Eleazar grinned, giggling at the end.

Tareo stared at him with a look that could kill a man. "You are a absolute rat." He muttered, banging his head on the wall.

"Uh, so I'm not a rich ass like you guys. What in the bloody name of Ehtra is a fatherless scroll?" Blae questioned, her nose scrunching up in distain and her eyebrows quirking. "Motheress scroll, you numbass," Kiera-Zane retorted. "And it's this supposed magical scroll that you can attach to a weapon and it will match your energy."

Blae sniggered. "Kind of idiotic, but you- OW. FUCK YOU." She screeched as Desai jabbed his elbow into her ribs. "Oh sorry Ms. I hav zero regard to the magical history of this world." Desai spat back.

"Smartass..." She muttered under her breath. "Anyways," Kiera-Zane coughed. "Since 'Reo is an Earth harnesser, his weapon of choice will harness the energy of the earth." She explained further.

Blae nodded, looking out the window, seeing the setting sun. "Okay, I'm going to go pass out for nineteen hours now. G'night."

The group wished the archer goodnight, before retiring to their own rooms, looking forward to sleep themselves.
