| "Uhg, I need nothing so why don't you!? " Grenal screamed, his voice a rough whisper to Alonius. |

| Grenal's eyes lit at the thought of payment finally being rewarded to him for his slavery. |

--------------------------------------------------------------------------- "The name of this species?" Embersprites.

| With Grenal on my shoulder, I head towards the market district, with the goal of buying food, a better knife, and perhaps another slave. |

| I leaned forward on my master's shoulder and yelled in his ear so he would hear me. "Can we go to the glassmaker? If we're going on a journey I need to be more prepared!" |

| "Yes, that's one of our goals. We'll get you some form of weapon.", I say back to him, as we enter the market. I head towards the slaver's stand and the glassmaker's store. "A slave or a weapon first, Grenal?" |

We head towards the slaver's stand. He nods down to me. "A scholar are you, sir? I've got some glassmen and hobgoblins here if you'd like, 20 silver for one of 'em!" I look away from the glassmen, who appear in no fit condition.
I see an odd creature, an Embersprite, at the end of line. "What about that one?" "Well, 30 silver, for that spritey fellow." I nod, and hand the man his money. He greedily counts it out as the sprite climbs down from the stand and bows.
"Grenal, what do you think of him, or her, whatever it is?", I say, as we turn towards the glassmaker's, sprite following.

| We reach the glassmaker's, a trained bird cawing as we do. The owner, a marshrunner merchant, walks from the back room, where I can see unfinished glassmen and glass weapons. "Grenal here would like to speak with you." |

The Glassmaker looks toward Grenal with distaste. He grabs a hammer from below his counter and flings it at the Glassman and it strikes him. He erupts into a explosion of glass, some catching on the robe of Alonius. The Glassmaker smiles, his white teeth showing. He lowers the hammer and places it back below the counter but his hands reveal a wooden box he must have grabbed while he was under there.

I point my staff towards the glassmaker, and the Endersprite's burning head glows brighter.
"By Cathar, what have you done?" |
