Walker was fairly happy with the random encounter. He had been worried about the demon's integration in to the kingdom. He was also happy with where it had taken him. He was planning on holding off with the search for the dormant elemental spirits. However, he had been in the Garnet family auction house and been stricken by the thought that they may fiend them often. People were sure to find them and believe they were rare materials.
On top of all this, he was able to resupply on the elemental mana crystals he needed. This would help awaken the elemental spirits but also give him the ability to start to forge gear with the wandering blacksmith. He wanted to work together on the true spirit forging path with him so that when they went on the mountain forging trip they could both forge together. It was an ideal adventure.
