After we made our way back to the Guildhouse both of us decided it would be best to sleep for awhile. As we lied down to slumber Alice looked at me, her green eyes glistening. "I love you beautiful." I said gently to her.
"I love you too darling." She said snuggling her head into my chest as she comes closer. Sleep rapidly approaches me and before I know it I am asleep.
When we wake up the sun is sinking behind the horizon. I light a few candles to keep the light in the room. "I'm going to be studying these tailsman for awhile my love." I said glancing beyond me as I sit down at my desk.
"Ok sweety I will just take this time to make my arrows into bolts that way it will save me time in the future." I open my book on the desk as she sits with all her arrows and starts widdling them away working them into short bolts. As I delve into the book I am immersed into an open world of endless possibilities and chances to create amazing artifacts of wonder and chance. After several hours of reading I start trying to work on my first tailsman slowely working the quill with ink around the blank canvas. Once I am finished I made my way outside. If I mad this correctly it should summon a rabbit. I'm just worried of what will happen if it's wrong. With that thought I tore the seal off the back and stuck the back to the ground and jumped back as fast as possible. I, sure enough, found out what happens when it's wrong and not one, but at least a hundred snakes rushed out of the tailsman. I lunched a few Fireballs and quickly made due of most all besides a few that may have slithered out of my grasp. Well, shit. That was a failure. Back to the books I guess.
After several more hours of reading I finally figured out how to properly draw the symbols needed for various effects. I made 20 of then after another 3 fails and finally one success. As I sat with a feeling of accomplishment I glanced over to Alice to pronounce my success however she was quietly sleeping in the bed. As the adrenaline grew fainter I realized how exhausted I was and decided it would be best to join her.
When I woke up it was past midday and Alice was already out of bed and outside training. As I sleepily got dressed and joined her I decided now would be the best time to drop this on her.
"Hey Alice." I said.
"Yes love?" She replied.
"So I was thinking, and we need to go back to the Eternal Dungeon. Just me and you. I think we can tackle the Dragon all on our own. I know it sounds crazy, but we are ready." I explained to her emphasising the fact I believe we can defeat it although truly I don't even know if we stand a chance.
"Hmm. I guess you may be right now that I think about it. It has been well over a year and we are much stronger. Plus I could use this as a nice chance to try out this crossbow. Come on let's go gear up." She said without even beginning to hide her excitement in the slightest as she then dashed over to our small house.
"That's my girl." I said shaking my head smiling before taking off behind her. She stripped down and put on one of her new outfits as I did the same. I strapped all my leather armour onto my body. I strapped my belt on and stuck my twenty tailsman into one pouch and the others into another along with the quill and ink. I put my sashed and daggers on shortly followed by my cloak. I put my enchanted sword and a steel shorts word into their sheathes before putting on my magick glove and my other glove like it sadly not magickally charged however. I took a small round rune I had bought and shoved it into the pommel of my enchanted sword. Drawing some magick from the glove into the rune I was done getting ready. I looked over to Alice who had her crossbow on her back, 3 quivers of iron bolts, one of steel, and one with her handful of explosive. She looked as beautiful as ever as she put her hair into a ponytail. I strapped my boots on and slid an enchanted dagger into the right one.
"Ready babe?" I asked raising an eyebrow.
"Yes, yes I am. Let's go." She said walking quickly out of the house. We made our way to the Dungeon hand-in-hand. Gathering stares from everyone around us as we walked a marvelous sight to behold.
After a little over an hour we made our way back to the familiar oversized door.
"Oh boy. Here we go. This won't be easy." I said as my nerves finally grow shot.
"Yes I know." Alice said quivering slightly. "Well we need to go."
"So lets." I said pushing the door open.
