Later, Liam returned to his room after finishing his daily time under Ann's supervision. With several of his questions answered, he turned his attention to the two hours or so he had before meeting Mary.
Of the materials he had purchased the previous morning, he had already used the lamp and a metal brick to create two enchanted items. There were four items left that could receive runes, of which he wisely chose the easiest to work on in the remaining hours.
Liam was determined and restrained. He wouldn't try to push his limits, but with each training session, he was determined to raise the level of difficulty a little.
His first enchanted artifact had 9 characters, while his third had 12, all with 3 runes each. So this morning, he tried something with 4 runes and 15 characters, an entire step higher than his previous trainings.
