The second day after arriving in Rakaens, the herbalists took their herbs to market. The orders from the town shops had been delivered the day before.
Krow, as designated weapon carrier, accompanied them to the market.
He'd already finished most of his business in Rakaens – replenished his bullets and Monstrepel Sachets, bought several more cylinders, and even found some quality Map Pieces for the kingdoms in the foothills and plains.
So many place-names struck much familiarity within him that he had to shake off brief nostalgia.
He'd also managed to spirit-bind his starting shirt and trousers, plus his second revolver, at a Grenod Temple near the street of scholars.
Gah, the chant for a Grenod binding was so wordy! And he had to do it three times! Krow had to pay for a syllabic copy so he wouldn't make a mistake.
