The Forgotten Wizard

Simple Words to Learn

"Kolton, can I help train our young wizard here?" asked Thomas.
"Yes, you may, everybody else go to bed." Kolton said. He split everybody up, two to a tent.
Thomas and I sat at the fire and Thomas started up a conversation, "Do you want to learn some elvish?"
"Why would I need it?" I asked.
"Most strong magic is written in elvish, the only strong magic that isn't is written in the tongue of the dragons." Thomas said.
"Well, why not. I mean we have a long trip ahead, and I wouldn't mind to learn some magic," I said.
Thomas came over to me and for the rest of my watch, Thomas was teaching me the 'letters' of elvish. When my watch was up, Thomas said, "Off to bed now, your watch is over."
I reluctantly went off to my tent that I shared with Thomas and set out my sleeping bag. I laid inside of it and instantly fell asleep.
I was woken up hours later by Thomas saying, "Now Keishan, you don't have to be late for the meal. I woke you up like ten minutes before. Help me put the tent down please?"
Sleepily I said, "Ya, just let me slip my boots on." I slipped out of my sleeping bag, put my boots on, and packed my stuff into my bag. I came out of the tent to the smell of our breakfast. I quickly packed the tent up with the help of Thomas.
When we were done, Thomas said, "Keishan, go wake the others." I did as he said and walked into the tent to my left. I woke the two in there and went to go see what I could do to help with breakfast.
I asked, "What can I help with?"
