El journal wk 38

After much procrastination, the usually reticent Shade decided to attempt to steal some of the ancient runes due to his overwhelming curiosity about the boy who appeared in his mind.The Shade knew that if he was caught stealing the Ancient Runes, the punishment would be fatal, but he felt an unseen force tugging at him, beckoning him towards the Rune storage place.As he approached the rune storage, an authoritative voice barked out, "What audacity! How dare a low rank soldier like you trespass this place!" However, using that glib tongue of his,the Shade managed to retort a convincing reason to the skeleton sentry, and slipped inside the rune storage.

Raydon felt nothing but antipathy for the rock as his magic,unable to hold it in the air for long, failed and the came crashing down to the ground again."Try again Crayon.." the halcyon and somewhat felicitous Rashik drawled again."No!Lift the rock yourself; i won't."Much to Raydon's surprise, the elf suddenly turned austere."Without grasping the true potential of magic, you will never excel in it, but be like those erudite and arrogant elves in the Magic Guild,wasting hours over trying to convert cheap ores into gold!"

Due to the countless battles grandmaster Rashik had been in, he had sustained a grotesque scar on his left arm which had left the arm useless.Even though crippled, Rashik was the epitome of all the elves, and possessed the utmost dexterity.Raydon had felt compassion for the old elf at first, but the impossible tasks were beginning to frustrate him as he failed once again to lift that humongous boulder."Find the inner power, Crayon.." the old elf wheezed.Raydon threw a malicious glare towards that repugnant elf hovering above the ground, ever so peacefully meditating.

The whimsical and mien Raydon suddenly felt a disturbance in the balance of magic, like a sudden burst of power being released. He ignored it; the Elves responsible for concoctions always had unstable potions exploding suddenly causing a surge of magic through the air. He had more important things to do, like accomplish the task his master had gave him.A few weeks ago, he was flabbergasted to have received an invitation from the renowned Rashik who was gaunt and an expert at magic. Now, he was expected to lift a humongous 50kg rock with magic, which he was unable to do."You must have equanimity, Crayon.." the old man wheezed, forgetting Raydon's name again.
