Rogue Hero

Ch. 7

"Room for four please."

~~~~~~~~~

"What are the ingredients we need from that place again?"

"Are you sure you can memorize this?"

"Of course."

"Alright, 20 mushrooms, the red one. 5 lava flowers.. Actually, make it 10 lava flowers. 4 Polar plants, dire flowers and Creelys.. Hm... And... 4 Trotes and snowshrooms. That should amount to.. 70 silver?"

Graham digs in his pocket and gives Atmere 3 handfuls of silver.

"This seems more like 70, can you count?"

Atmere giggles as he starts counting the silver.

"I gave you more so you can buy something for yourself, unless you don't want to?"

"..."

"..."

Atmere slowly backs off to the door, still facing Graham. He grabs at the knob behind him, opens the door

"Thanks!"

And leaves.

"That kid... Sometimes he's too much."

Graham falls on the bed, pulls out his book and starts reading.

"How about you, Dias? What do you think of him?"

"I think he's fun to have around."

"How about you, Fau- ..."

He's asleep.

~~~~~~~~

Ding!

The tiny bell sound that plays whenever you open one of those doors immediately alerts the person behind the counter. 

"Oh my... A customer.."

Atmere walked up to the counter and repeated the order..

"20 mushrooms... 10 lava flowers... 4 ice plants.. dire flowers and those cree things.. Uhm... 4 trotes and snow mushrooms!"

"Ah, I'm sorry sir... We're out of snowshrooms.."

She tilts her head.

"And... you mean the Creely, right?"

"Ah, yes... That."

The woman immediately nods and immediately gets to work, taking the ingredients needed and putting them in a bag.

"May I know your name?.."

"Atmere."

"Mister... Atmere, you're not a botanist aren't you?.."

The woman plops the bag on the counter yet she holds on to it tightly.

"May I ask... Why are you getting ingredients if you aren't a botanist?.."

"Oh, I'm part of a party and I'm getting the ingredients for our druid!"

The woman nods and seems to be hiding something yet she slowly pushes the bag to Atmere.

"That'll be... 62 silver.."

Atmere digs through his pockets, grabbing all the silver and puts all of his silver on the counter.

"Thank you, keep the change."

Atmere walks away, about to grab hold of the door until..

"Wait.. could I join your party?"

~~~~~~~~~

"And so, that's how I recruited a new member into our party."

"Uhuh, quite hard to believe you considering the sandwiches you bought as your snacks, which means you didn't... Give her all of your cash."

Atmere, with bread crumbs on his mouth and a sandwich on his hand, shakes his head.

"Alright, I didn't give her EVERYTHING but she's real! I swear!"

"Then bring her over."

Atmere freezes and starts stuttering.

"Ah- Uh... W-Well... I-... You'll see tomorrow! When we leave!"

"Mhm.."

Graham grabs the bag and gets up.

"Anyways, excuse me, I've got potions to brew."

He starts checking the ingredients and once finished, nods his head and leaves the room.

Atmere jumps on the bed that Graham was on earlier, he still has the sandwich at hand though..

"Dias, you trust me right?!"

"... Yeah, whatever you say my friend. I'm gonna get some rest, I can barely see right now."

Dias lays down on the bed, closes his eyes and falls asleep.

Creators note: No handbook record needed for Botanists, they're just weaker druids. Also this is a fodder chapter but itll be a bit important i guess. Ah, this must be Alice?!

ADVENTURERS HANDBOOK RECORDS

Alana town

A small town within the dense forest in between the city of Sentinel and Oresfall. Most see it as a resting point filled with many ingredients(And botanists) So this is a great place to buy potions from.
