I shivered as I stepped off the boat I had been on for two weeks now. I had gotten a magician's apprenticeship in Vesuvia about three weeks ago, and now- I'm finally here. It was extremely, not overwhelming yet not underwhelming. The place felt familiar, like I've been here before....

Not important. What street did they say they lived on? I opened the letter the man had sent, it smelled like Citrus. I read the address off

172 Watersage road

Whoever named these streets needs some serious mental help.

I turned and came face to face with a man who seemed to be in his mid-late 20s maybe early 30s

"Exus-"

I was cut off

"Xypher? I've been awaiting your arrival."

He stepped back and held out his hand

"Salim Alnazar. I was the one who hired you."

Ah, so this is the man I was talking to- I didnt expect him to be so... Handsome..

"Ah, well I suppose you already know my name, Mr Alnazar."

He nodded, gently taking my hand. A small smile appearing on his face

"Let's head to my house, dear"

He's... So polite-... Why did he call me dear? Isn't he married???? I paused. Looking at him like a deer in headlights. I didn't even notice him calling me. "Xypher? Hey? Xypher!" I snapped out of my little, space moment "sorry sorry- I tend to do that sometimes."

He nodded, signalling that it was fine. His soft hands grabbed my... Rather sweaty hands- leading me to his house where I could hear a fant sound of a young child.

He has- kids? Oh this sure will be fun.
