We headed to the blacksmith and were greeted with a warm welcome from Grimes as the three of us walked in. The big man came out from behind the counter with a big smile on his face.
"Good to see you again! Didn't think that you would be back this early, but you must be a real go-getter!" Grimes laughed, and I smiled.
"Not really; we are just in need of armor before we leave town. Do you think that we can get some stuff for the girls? You must have some women's clothing in the back, right?" I asked, and Grimes nodded but formed at me.
"You are leaving? How long are you going to be gone?" Grimes asked as he turned and waved for us to follow.
"Probably won't be coming back," I said, and Grimes stopped and turned on me.
"Not coming back?! I just met you, and you only taught me one thing! I know that you have much more that you can teach me about!" Grimes exclaimed, surprising me.
