While the nah the city no one really cao through a somewhat dense forest Then they would come out to an open area surrounded by unke adventurers like the places to visit

“There, think we are out… I can see soroup ca that they noticed was the large walls that were surrounding soh and mostly made from ith barbed wire at the top parts

“What is this supposed to be?”

Asked Rudy

“Is this some kind of prison…”

Replied Miron as he was also confused about the way this building was set up Most of the walls were s but there was also a newer section that was e entrance gate and the brick house next to it

“That must be the shop… that e her chin while exan It had the words ‘Wayland’s Runic En but there was a s of a sun to the side that she re Sansa?”

“I don’t know yet, giveover her shoulder placed her hand into a satchel to pull out a scroll She looked at this itenia that this runic item had on it

“It’s identical… Did Wayland s with Keira beforetowards the store They were not the only people here though as outside the store they could see a large man He was someone that they knew and that was souild for his siak will ree half-orc adventurer that they so Most people tried to avoid half-orcs as they were seen as stupid brutes They h as their physical stats were closer to their monster orc counterparts that they cahtened up as they knew that they would not be able to handle this half-orc if a fight broke out The tirade adventurers ell known around their circles

“You don’t need to worry Mr Korgak, I’ll be sure toRudy on the back Korgak just nodded while e tree stump that he could sit on

Rudy wanted to shout out but was soreen-skinnedsilently behind hiroup soon entered the shop and the e chih it

They looked at the door that they opened to see if there was a bell above it but they didn’t see anything there It looked like the sound went off after they opened the door It was a sentle chime but where it came from no one knew

On the inside, they spotted a certain woman, one that they were very fao as she vanished frouild without a trace

“Ms Elodia? What are you doing here?”

“Welcome to Wayland’s Runic Ehtly different frouild were forced to wear It made her look solasses only made this look more prominent

“Elodia? The receptionist?”

“Yes, you are correct, I work here now, do you have some questions? If you look to the board there we have written down a couple of rules”

The other three roup quickly ho behind a counter with soroup noticed that there were shelves filled with certain parchments that she was faht, the runic scrolls that vanished from the circulation around the city were nowhere and Wayland was the one producing then with the rules that she pointed theround rules

One of the the store clerk for it Another one stated some rules about runic weapon repairs and the rates

“It says here that you will repair the itee?”

“Ah yes, the first runic repair will be free, you will be given a token with your purchase that you can then use whenever you wish to get your item repaired

“Really? That’s neat,like that”

Elodia nodded as Keira posed the question It did sound nice to get one free repair with every weapon purchased It was as if the cost of it went down by a whole sold coin

“Can I look around?”

“Be uest, if you have any questions please ask me”

Keira backed off for now but was also so While she still had the resting bitch face as always she seemed soenuine than the autouild

At first glance, this store didn’t look much different than the other stores in town There were various cabinets through which they could see soers and swords So out on the walls with the only difference being that they had e runes on them

All of the adventurers from the four-man party made a few rounds around the shop that wasn’t either se looks plastered over their faces

“E-excuse ht…”

Keira waddled over to Elodia and posed the question while pointing at the price tags that were next to the iteht Mr Wayland decided to lower the prices for now but I’, will you be buying anything?”

“Y… No… I roup of adventurers and they all gave her a nod before sloalking out froain”

Elodia looked a bit down after the party of four left the store After the door closed she couldn’t seetheir pace while shuffling towards the forest The closer they got to the dirt road the faster they walked

“Did you see it…”

“Yes…”

“We need togo get money before it's too late!”

Keira shouted out while the group of four bolted towards the city

“Miron, et those runic weapons, I never saw any at that price before!”

Miron clenched his teeth while running as fast as he could while wearing his half-plate ar was still soeon run They needed to sell first before they could buy the gear they wanted

“Sansa, go ahead and reserve a spot in line for us, we need to act fast, if word spreads that Wayland is selling those things for so little on’t be able to get anything!”

The group's archer nodded as she sprinted forward The group of youths all had panicked looks on their faces but there was also a twinkle of joy In their heads, they already pictured theical weapons that they could never afford

They knew the reason but they also knew that this opportunity was fleeting They needed to quickly return with a purse filled with coins before it was too late
