"Hey, how's it going, Lumena? Making any progress?" I inquired as I entered the room.
"Hm? Oh, hey, Larrk...wish I had better news, but I'm really struggling with this," She responded with a sigh, dark circles under her eyes.
Today's the 25th of Junius, 2021, I'd tasked Lumena with trying to come up with a counter against the Vampires' moonlight barrier that Terrastra had told us about.
There were other individuals in Arcadia who were capable of making Magic Items, but Lumena was the most proficient at it in the nation, and the others kinda ended up holding her back, so I had them work separately while she worked solo.
"You're looking really worn out, are you getting any sleep?" I asked her with concern.
"Uh...I think so? Maybe? It's all kind of a blur. Last night, I-...no, wait, was it two nights ago? Or maybe three...hm, I'm not sure. Anyway, I-...wait, what was I talking about?" She responded, her eyes glazed over.
