'Should I accept or not?' Evelyn thought, considering her best course of action.
In the grand scheme of things three days was not much time, but it would still be time spent not pursuing her immediate goal.
On the other hand, the information that this tortoise might be able to provide her could shave off a great deal of time searching aimlessly for the specific type of fire elemental she was after.
'It would also give me more opportunities to test my magic against more fire elementals. Then there are the alchemical items I made that should be effective against them. But until I use them on a target I won't know for sure.'
Thinking about the pros and cons, Evelyn figured she would be better off taking the tortoise's offer, but it all came down to whether she could really trust him.
