Go to the General Store
Alex trekked to the general store. Malcom welcomed him. "What did you come here for, Alex?"
:?
>Finish reading book.
>Trade in two bank notes for cash. Keep the rest.
>Visit the blacksmith.
The final 20 or so pages were left.
-...and thus, the journey of Arcane Magicks is compleate. -
From that sentence, the way the book was written changed 180 degrees around (also known as 1 pi radians :3). The sloppy, double-printed lines that gave Griph an additional headache changed to crisp letters, and the confusion between
magic, magik and
magick was unified into
magic. The bold type taught Griph more than the preceding hundred pages did. It told Griph that Chain Casting was a skill that gave the castor a chance of casting more than one instance in a chain, and the ability to cast two low-level magic at the same time. Griph stood up, and dropped the now finished book onto the floor; coursing through his brain was new-found knowledge of magic. He experimentally charged an icebolt, and two popped into existence. Oh, if only he knew the other three magic spells ...
Griph walked to the bank and cashed two 10000 gold notes into actual money.
After that, he walked towards the smithy with a purpose.
Furgus greeted him gladly. "Ho, young fellow! Why are you here for today?"
Make 4 bags of flour using a local mill. You'll just leave tomorrow I guess, but at least you'll have your supplies.
((You never know. There could be a really expensive book. ))
Zario's back hurt like crazy. Apparently, all the wheat had to be collected by himself, too. He had to stoop in the fields for more than three hours, collecting forty bundles of wheat. He then had to go to the mill and use that for another half-hour. Still, he now had twelve bottles of blessed water in his hands for that effort. He also gained a small, sparkling rock that was in the stream.
(Expensive books = Higher magic. Ice spear's market price is roughly 3,000,000; Fireball 1,000,000; and Thunder some 2,500,000 :3)
