Chapter 67: The Soul Forge (1/2)

"That is why, as of to my doors for a feeeks" Arwell Lychester declared, "I feel it is hter, as should you all spend tiht, but co and you will find the store closed"

Merlin realised what the slih he was just one of oods in town, he had the enerally held a monopoly on some of the ht of until they needed it He wasan attempt to harvest as much coin as he could while everyone was in a bad state ofaway to safety

Merlin checked his own inventory, and figured he wasn't really aching for any ite around he didn't think he would even use any

Merlin walked passed Lychester while thinking that he would probably have a better chance of killing hi, which was in about four or so hours based on the position of the moon

It was at thisdown the street, ate with a handful of followers It see locked up for a couple hours

Merlin waited and watched as the player started being disrespectful towards the guards standing in the eastern gate instead of asking theuards even more annoyed at his behaviour

Merlin se near the business area of town Much like the one in Lycoa, it had the appearance of a blacksh this one fit in more with the town's overall the, it also reflected a similar structure to the other soul force, namely massive obsidian obelisk in the middle of the workshop, as well as a couple other stations for crafting or soul manipulation

Merlin walked over to an NPCs as idling away at the counter "hello, I'd like to use your soul forge"

"Of course, we've got a couple at the back there, just to your right, feel free to use theold encrusted pedestal that featured a flat plate on top of it "You can come to me if you need any help!"

Merlin thanked the NPC and walked over to one of the soul forge stations The soul forge in Lycoa only had a single forge, but this building had four, and cities or larger towns typically had a lot more As Merlin rest his hand on the tablet, aappeared before hie that he could utilise

There was the option to modify his soul vessel, a feature he had already utilised back in Lycoa, and didn't ier, especially because he had just acquired his third soul

Another option of the forge was accessing his soul receptacle, his global soul storage When you collected souls, that you couldn't absorb, or that you refused to absorb, you could bring it to a soul receptacle to store away There was also the option to extract a soul from the soul receptacle, but this wasto note was that you couldn't trade or sell a soul that you had already absorbed, as they were already attuned to you, siames

There was also the option to swap your absorbed souls around, allowing you to shich one was considered the origin soul, or trading souls with your soul receptacle It was possible to store all your absorbed souls in the soul receptacle, leaving all your slots eenerally pointless to do so

Another option, one of the ether This had a few uses, but the et a new soul There were a few restrictions for this, with thethat the soul had to be at least level five to be used in upgrades, which depending on the soul, could be a little ti to achieve, as each soul had different ether, neither of the parent souls were consue of the experience bar for each was used in the new soul's creation

Another use of forging souls together was instead forging two of the sahest traits of each soul to take over, including the soul's experience and level Unlike forging two different souls, both parent souls were destroyed in theof the new soul, and there was no level requirement on either soul

This was useful for example when you acquired a soul froa it up, only to find a monster soul from a level forty monster of the same type
