"Oh, by the way," said Herrera, "this is your reward from the dean."
Upon returning to the Mage Tower, Herrera took out her storage bracelet and handed Link his reward. Link immediately gasped after catching sight of the reward.
"Why is the dean so generous with me?" asked Link. "He'd just given me a golden ore, and now I get 20,000 gold coins as well?"
By rough estimations, Link discovered that the gold in the ring and all its other components and the fragments of the Dark Elves' weapon would wipe out his funding problems immediately.
"The dean thinks highly of you," said Herrera with a smile. "You mustn't let him down."
"Of course," said Link.
