”Good evening Elder, is there something we can help you with?”
Ittindi sat at the table, as hushed voices started to whisper, no doubt they had dispelled any rumors of their capabilities. The elder stumbling over, a small limp either from age or from the horrors of the past week would make it over and cough for a couple seconds before clearing his throat and speaking.
”I wanted to thank you again for helping this villages children. Then I wanted to know if possibly you’d consider doing a follow up request since you’re already here. The farmers on the outskirts of the village claim that this all started when one of the children wandered up to the castle on top of a the mountain nearby. If you could investigate we’d be willing to pay for your troubles.”
Ittindi held in his sigh, instead looking over at Lady Talham to make sure she was ok with their continued efforts. If not he’d take her home, but he had a feeling she’d want to, not even for the money but to save the village. It reminded Ittindi while he knew about her background, he hadn’t asked Lady Talham much about her present actions. He remembered her mentioning family, were they also vampires? He’d have to take this journey up the mountains if they did take it to get to know his apprentice more. Afterall, training was important, but he regretted not knowing more about his first mentor’s personal life. He didn’t need to be that stiff, at least he assumed.
”Well Lady Talham are you up for a continuation or do you need a break and we send in other representatives?”
