Vigil VII: Strife Amidst the Clouds

[Deathkeeper]

Training Grounds

”Well...Sylvess and I did invest a lot of our hoards to help fund our new Kobold friends’ business. But we might have silver to spare. And I know I have a weapon or two lying around that’s made of mithril you could melt down. You will have to get any other mithril and titanium yourself, though. Sylvess is being very frugal lately. And I can’t blame him. We spent a lot to get Fort Aegis going. And um. We uh. We need to save a lot. For the eggs.” Spako is suddenly stammering. That’s not something he does often.
”I have seven eggs, Pepper. Seven. That’s three and a half twos. I’d be honored if you came to see them after they hatch. I was going to ask you before but um. Buttercup happened. But I think you would make as good an aunt as an uncle.”
