“ ok, I’m done, amber. Give him your spellbook,” he says. Amber hands the man her spellbook, “ so witch spells do you want?” The dog man asks, “ancestral stead, shade step, portal, lighting strike, sleep, mage Armor, hero feast, true strike, message, rejection, Detection, counter spell, and ogre strength please “ the man nods and places the book on a stone, and the man lists the spells with each name the spellbook glows” there all finished that will be five platinum, 10 gold, 50 silver, and 75 copper.

Dang, that was expensive, but he pays the coins out to the man “thank you for your patronage, sir,” the man says as they he looks around the library, he picks up, history of the world volume 1, and 2, he also buys a map. With his massive funds dwindling a little, .he finally left the library. They head to the place that put in the request, after getting lost, they finally found the place they were looking for some nobles house “you are to deliver this message to Galen, “the haughty woman said, handing them a letter.

After asking around for a bit, they found a merchant heading to Galen who hired them on as guards “well, if your part of the guild, I guess you can join; they do have strict registration, I’ll be glad to have you with my regular guard” the portly man said they joined a bunch of mixed guards it seamed every race was represented here in the man guard, and they were welcomed with open arms, “wow so we do you get a beast-man slave this town did not have any slaves for sale at the moment” one elf man ask with interest “well I found her with some thieves “ the elf man pinched amber ass “hay hands-off I belong to master” amber says crossly “yah no touching” Lance says

“Hay, I meant no harm. I was just being a little fresh any chance you will sell her…(Lance shakes his head NO) did not think so oh well hopefully Galen has more of a selection,” the elf man says “you’ll have to get your horse if you want to travel with us though,” a half-ling female says firmly “that’s fine my mage has the ancestral spell horse” he says and bye the time there ready to leave, and has summoned two-horse, amber travels on the horse with him, grinta gets her horse “I’m the sorry master I can’t do portal yet “ she says apologizing “ That is fine amber take your time with your magic.

After amber finished studying her spells, they came upon a carriage that looked like it had been attacking. Bodies lay littered around the thing. Lance and his group go about checking all the bodies. They only find one man on death’s door, litter with bloody injury “he is going to die, and there is nothing we can do about it,” the merchant says sadly. He gets a desperate idea.

Lance starts to pray to god any god, and he and he felt power flow into his mind, spells of holy type flow into his mind, and power flows into him. Spells are whispered to him, and a pool of power inside himself, he felt power come to him. He ChannelEd some of the energy into a healing spell and then into the man, anD his injuries healed quickly. He is no longer in danger of dying right the man woke up his eyes snapped open“they took her” he said “they took who ”the princess we must rescue her” the man said, getting up he had some more healing power at his fingertips. Hence, he finished the man healing .right again he was left with his heal pool only had a small amount left “describe the princess ” he said the man “ the princess has silver blond hair and is ahead taller than me, she has rather husky hypes, and is rather slim, she has green-blue eyes and ear as sharp as the elder tree leaves, breast the size of Cantaloupes, and lips as red as cherry’s, “ the man describes, Lance channels his last energy in his spell pool. So used it as a spell to track the princes.

He follows we’re the spell leads. Grinta picks the man up and puts him on the back of her horse” you on your own for a rescue mission. We’re not being paid to rescue someone. Still, we will wait on you,” the merchant says quickly. Amber, the man, and Grinta all follow him, as he rides two hours him and amber road double the guard’s man and Grinta road double as they follow him he follows the pull of his spell going at top speed and, he saw the princess tied to a horse trashing about. It seemed they stopped to rest. They weren’t expecting followers, so they had no guards set up. They slowly approached “amber keep casting magic missile till your out of power or till they all go down,” he says. She nods, and she begins to chant; next thing he does, power launches into the thugs he attacks the surprised thugs .he. He gets in a fight with one he takes him down. The men are so amazed they did not fight to the death, and he and the others had no problem knocking the men out. They nock out the others in quick order, not a single foe is killed in their blitz attack, but eventually, the thugs are all taken care of. A total of 6 thugs all go down As Magic stops from raining down on the thugs.

After everything calms down, amber and them tie up the thugs and then free the princes ”thanks for releasing me. I’m sure you can name your reward” she says they tie up the men and tow them to the merchants, the guard help them with the thugs to the of the course the merchant the loyal guard insists on staying with the princess as they ride on the merchant wagon, they ride close by the princess she gets on it. She rests on ”so why did you risk your life for me” the princess asks Grinta and amber” I just followed him,” Grinta said, pointing to him ”he’s my master; I do what he says,” amber says the princes look at him ”so why did you save me?” she asks he Thinks” I fell in love with your description, I just had to save such a Beautiful Woman” he says. She blushes “no, what’s the real reason? “she asked. He shrugged “you needed saving, and I wanted to save you . it is as simple as that,” he says simply. She looks at him oddly.

”I’ll have you know once I rested for a day, I would of being able to save myself in good time,” she says. With confidence looked at her with skepticism “oh, and how would you do that?” he asks, with Skepticism. “magic, I have you know I’m a cleric of Ashland. I just got back from treating a plague Place, so I’m out of power right now, so as soon as I rest the night, I’ll be back up to full strength,” she said “your captures probably knew you were a spell caster and wouldn’t let you rest enough to recover your spell pool,” he said.

”So how did you find me?,” she asked” it seems I can use spells, mostly holy spells. I used a stander divine tracking spell; I was just lucky you were not that far away, “ he says, relief though past due was in his voice,” the way you fought you seam like a paladin,” the princess says Grinta says ”well I’m not sure what god I follow at the moment. Still, whatever I’m am I’m out of episodes spell pools for today,” he says with caution ”master I only have one level 3 spell pool left, “ amber says he nods ” let’s try not to get in any fights than,” he says they ride on unmolested the rest of the time making good time through the Beautiful Countryside. Merchant break camp when the sun sets “ these thugs will be out till tomorrow morning is my guess, “the princess says, checking the bandits.

But when she finishes, she comes to him followed by her last guard “my name is Emily hartingblade third princess of the kingdom of Theoligica, …and just who would you three be.” she asks with a proud tone “ well, I am lance Holden, this is my slave amber, and this lady is my friend grinta” he answers they all bow “ oh posh I have not been chosen to succeed the throne yet, so there is no need to bow to me.” Emily said firmly, “ yes, you see the crown is only passed successfully if the king a queen die before naming a successor, and my lady. Would only be lucky enough to get a noble title and serve the kingdom. “ the guard says “ I am my parents favorite choice for the throne though, so I do have some enemy’s “ the tents are all set up Already. Emily even sets up her tent on her own. They set up guard shifts for the night and bed down for the night. Him, amber, And grinta all share a tent.
