Adam, with his bde gripped tightly in both hands, charged forward. The Adventurer before him, with his own bde clutched tightly with both hands, charged forward full e too.
Lightsear cut through the bde, cutting it in half, before cutting into the mail, nearly cutting through the man’s arm. Had he wished, Adam could have disarmed him, of bde and bone, but he pulled back just in time. The young man stared at his arm, which was barely hanging on, and fell, his eyes rolled bato his skull, his mouth foaming.
‘What should I say to make this sound cool?’ Adam thought as he sheathed his bde.
Paul sighed as the Adventurer’s party panicked, and their Priest, the woman who had kept him at bay, quickly dropped beside him and prayed, filling him with her healing magibsp;
Adam walked towards the Guild.
“Don’t you want yold?” Paul asked, having wondered how he’d deal with the bet.
“He isn’t worth it,” Adam replied, simply.
Whehers returned, he didn’t mention the fight. Instead, he noted how many Boars they had sin, including the Great Boar.
“Nice,” he said, nodding his head.
“How did it go with you?” Dunes asked.
“Pretty good,” Adam said, smiling. He had Levelled Up and had fought in duel.
Dunes noted Adam’s smirk, but left it at that.

“Why didn’t you tell us that you had a fight st night?” Jaygak asked, staring at him with squinted eyes.
“It would have brought shame to my family,” Adam said.
“Didn’t you win?”
“Yes.”
Jaygak stared at him long and hard, but seeing as he didn’t want to talk about it, left it at that.
Kitool gave her a look, and the pair looked to Jurot, w if he’d ask the question on their minds.

Adam went back to work, making his potions.

There was a man, adorned i pte, with a Rukh in flight stylised on the front. At his back was a bde, bck, yet sprinkled with bits of colour like the night sky. He stared down at the darkness ahead, seeing through it, as though he were an elf, yet his sight was eveer. He could serail from three beings ahead of him, and he sighed. He stepped forward to meet them, unsure of why his sister had sent him here. He barely mao catch the bde of the tall woman, even as she limped, she caused him to skid backwards. The woman reised him, but she did not stay her bde.

Jurot and the rest had returned, with a bounty of Boars.
“How was it?” Adam asked.
“Okay,” Jurot replied.
“We slew a few Boars but there was nothing else,” Jaygak said.
The Boar was cooked into a stew for them all, and there was the usual ptter of fruits aables for them too. There lenty of bread to dip, which Duill cut into slices before dipping into his food.
There was also some fried Boar on offer, which Adam happily accepted, saving it for the end, like a dessert. Thinking of dessert, he kept an apple, which he then fvoured into a red velvet cake. ‘Nice. Magic is the best!’

The others had left for wain, and Adam spent his day making potions again.
“B,” he muttered to himself. He sighed, staring at the ingredients in front of him. “Still…” He thought back to seeing Kitool go down, and how Jurot had fallely too. In order to secure the future, he o work hard in the present. “B!” He growled finally before rolling up his sleeves aing to work.

The stranger remained on top of the woman, feeling a rock pin his leg to the ground. He could feel her weakened breathing, each breath weaker tha. He growled, g out for the strange god’s name. He did not know how he khe name, for he only knew four names, and none were his own. As he cried out the he rock shifted, and he looked up to the dark sky above, seeing a figure. Above him was a man, with greyish green skin, and tusks jutting from the er of his lips. He used the familiar axe to dig the man out, and saved the pair. At his side was a shield, painted white, with a rge dark circle painted in the middle, and dark diamonds around it.
The heat filled his mind, and Adam dropped to his knees, coughing as blood poured from his nose. He wiped it against his clothing, coughing again, his mind buzzing. He ed himself the best he could, and stumbled dowairs, sitting opposite the others.
Jurot stared at him as he righted himself and sat down with the rest of the group. “Are you okay?”
“Fine,” Adam said. “Just had a little bit of a thing.”
The four stared at him, and Kitool noted his paleness, as well as some fresh blood around his nostrils. “Dunes, you heal him?”
Dunes shook his head. “I’m all out today, I’m afraid. How did you get so hurt? Did that man do something?”
Adam blinked, shaking his head. “Excuse me? You think that prick could hurt me?”
Tough Spirit: 1 -> 02D6 + 4 = 11 (1, 6)Health: 26 -> 37
He flexed his muscles and shook his head, trying to calm the buzzing in his mind. “I’m fine, see?”
“You should rest,” Dunes said. “You’re too reckless.”
Adam smiled, though he seriousness all around the table. He caught Jurot’s eyes, which were stern, though he did not speak up. “I know my limits. Tomorrow is the st day.”

The stranger embraced the woman, her head against his chest. Their fingers were iwined, and her breath tickled his chest. He leaned in to kiss her forehead, smiling, having not yet realised that soon she would bee sick every m.
Adam again dropped to his knees, feeling the blood pour out of his nose again. He shook his head, and wiped his nose of the blood, the buzzing pounding in his mind.
“God damn it!” Adam gasped for air.
Tough Spirit: 1 -> 02D6 + 4 = 13 (4, 5)Health: 40 -> 52
He exhaled, and shrugged his shoulders, before heading down to meet the rest of Fate’s Golden, seeing the rge scar across Dune’s face. “Whoa, what happeo you?”
“We found two Elder Forest Wolves,” Dune said.
“They found us,” Jaygak corrected.
“Right.” Dunes nodded. “Nobby almost died.”
Adam blinked. “Is he okay?”
“He’s fine,” Dunes said. “What about you?”
“I’m fine,” Adam replied. “I’m doh all that, and you’ll be gd for it too. I’ll hand everything over tomorrow.” Adam smiled.
“Since you’re leaving tomorrow, how will the Party Fund be handled?” Dunes asked. “We have been putting in a lot of while you were w.”
“Right, right,” Adam said, nodding his head. “We’ll split it in half. Jurot and I will take one half, you will take the sed half.”
Dunes nodded. Half was actually quite generous sidering that the two were much more powerful and were most of the reason they were able to plete the various Quests.
“I’ll hand Kitool the Party Fund,” Adam said. “It’s not that I don’t trust either of you.” He gnced between Jaygak and Dunes. “No, nevermind, it’s definitely because I trust her more than you.” He smirked.
Jaygak narrowed her eyes. “Your jokes aren’t funny.”
“I know,” Adam said, smiling wider. “That’s why I find them so funny!”
“Are you busy?” Braun asked, approag them. “We o talk.”
“What did I do this time?” Adam asked, frowning.
“It’s for Fate’s Golden.”
“Oh.”
They were led to another room, somewhere private, away fr eyes and keen ears. “Vice Master Paul has spoken with Sir Harvey, and your entire party is wanted for the expedition.”
“Sweet,” Adam said, smiling. “Saves me from splitting the Party Fund in half.”
“The pay will be fifty gold upfront, five gold to each of you per day, and fifty gold upon pletion. Sir Harvey also wishes to head further north.” Braun gave a knowing go Adam, who smirked.
“Sounds good,” the Half Elf said. “What do you guys think?”
“I haven’t been to the north yet,” Dunes admitted.
Jaygak cracked a smile, uo tain it. “The north will be fun.”
“Sounds like it’ll be more dangerous,” Adam said, shaking his head, a small smile on his face.
“Yes,” Kitool said. “It be.”
“Alright, well, let’s have a meeting and discuss things?” Adam asked. “We’ll be leaving first thing in the m, I assume?”
“Yes,” Braun said, leaving them be.
“We should all prepare,” Adam said. “I have a bunch of potions for everyone, so we’ll split those between us.”
“Hootions?” Dunes asked.
Adam smiled, handing them each the various potions, including the Enhanced Healing Potions he made.
“You made these?” Dunes asked.
Adam nodded. “Yep. Why do you think I was bleeding everywhere?”
“Aren’t these… Enhanced Healing Potions?” Dunes asked.
“Yes,” Adam said.
Jaygak pced a hand on Dunes’ shoulder. “You will get used to it.”
Dunes blinked. ‘Is it an Iyrman thing? An Elvish thing?’
Adam tio smile. “Alright, well, since we don’t need anything, I’ll s out some gold for some gems so I don’t have to carry this huge pouch with us. Otherwise, good night, have a good rest, and I’ll see you in the m.”
Adam rexed on his bed at the end of the day, feeling a slight headache. ‘Hey Bell, I’m not dying am I?’
[You’re always dying.]
‘You know what I mean.’
[I ot ahat question.]
‘Tch.’ Adam rolled his eyes. ‘You know, now that I think about it, I didn’t get any Experience from beating that punk.’
[He wasn’t worth it.]
Adam smiled. ‘Damn right.’ He closed his eyes. ‘Though it does sound like a cop out.’
[You aren’t dying.]
‘Thank you.’
Adam tio rex in bed. ‘Now that I think about it, I’ve had a duel before with some guy that didn’t like me. Anton? Alton! Good ol’ Alton. I wonder where he’s at.’
