"So… let me try and summarize everything you've told me so far." After asking Valyr a couple more questions amidst the young man's narration of everything that had led up to the current situation, Noel took in a deep breath as he sorted out his thoughts, organizing all of the information he had just received from the young man in his mind.
"Go ahead, Elder Noel." In response, Valyr nodded, waiting for the old man to begin.
"To start off your entire narration, you used to have a wooden spear, transmuted it with Lesser Tidemother Blood, and eventually had your spear siphon the blood and energy of a recently killed Tidemother to improve the spear even further."
"Yes." Valyr nodded.
"And then, because of that, a higher being became enraged and gave you a curse that has a mark on your back."
"That is also correct." Valyr nodded once more.
