Master Of None

The group took the ground back toward the elf city since most were too tired to run through the trees or hop branch to branch. The enforcers remained on high alert while Sierra constantly used her skills to help them replenish mana. Walker happily handed out healing and mana potions as needed.

"And you're saying she made all of those mana portions herself before even coming here?' Scylla had been questioning the alchemical brawler system as they walked. She foiund it interesting that Remey was so adept in combat and a calming art such as alchemy.

"Yes, she even made the healing potions too. I was pretty surprised when I found out she was an honorary member of the alchemy building at our kingdom as well. To be honest she is probably an official member now that she can produce potions and other such alchemic products." Walker was thinking about the qualifications and figured the old master alchemist must have made everything official the second he found out she had this ability.

"Even if she was not the official member of this alchemy building she will soon be the first founder of the alchemy guild. What do you think about that general Scylla?" Trish and Scylla still had a little bit of a friendly head butting attitude, but everyone had started to realize that it was just two strong personalities colliding out of respect and fun.

"I think that is an interesting move. It would certainly be safer to have it set up as a guild. The adventurers guild had an easy time replacing the groups of mercenaries within our kingdom since they would be able to better handle the quests given. There was also a safety aspect of having a guild that could enforce rules and regulations."

"That is why I want to form a guild for alchemy. We could protect those who are victimized from exorbitant prices for life saving potions. We can make sure that those with the alchemy based systems have the chance to learn and it is not just the richer noble families that have the alchemy based systems. Not to mention the flow of rare herbs can be better regulated with new trading routes." 

Remey had heard them talking about the future guild she wanted to form and couldn't help herself from chiming in. Walker saw the opportunity to test the water with the idea that the demi-human kingdom could become more open to using potions again. "If it becomes a guild then there would be a very safe form of tested potions coming in to the kingdoms. Your kingdom could benefit greatly." 

Scylla looked at Walker and understood the point he was trying to make. She had the same feelings over potions since they had the incident where there were many that were hurt and killed by the bad batches of potions from the demons. "I see where you are going with this and I can not say you are wrong to push for it. But you need to show the people of my kingdom proof before they trust it." 

"That is a wise choice. I have heard the problems you face and wish there had been a guild to prevent that before it had happened. Please accept my sincerest condolences." Trish had seen many young alchemists who had tested potions alone without guidance fail or perish due to their actions. She had always strived to make sure these things would not happen, but they were unavoidable as they were. 

"I believe a joint endeavor such as this would be a great way to bring the kingdoms together. With the addition of trading and an auction the three kingdoms could bond closer than they ever have." Su was exactly right on this note. If they did manage to agree and pursue these things the kingdoms would be laying down a history that took all three of them instead of just one.

"Then I will consider it well when I speak to my king. I am here to act in negotiations and see what possible futures we hold together. We may hold similar goals when it comes to ongoing problems as well." There was an ominous feeling as Scylla said this.

Walker didn't want to pry too much on this but had a feeling that it would be coming up when they all spoke together. He feared that Scylla was casually mentioning the differences the elves had with the demons and the similar feeling they may have in line with the dem-humans.

"We should focus on returning and properly resting. The political talks can wait until your other representative reach the city. You should enjoy it just as the heroes have been doing. I believe they will have much to show you." Scylla appeared much more interested in what Wade had just suggested. Walker sent a thankful glance to Wade. he would make a point to speak to Wade and Alma together later.

"Wait did you just say unicorns? Your little serpent said there are unicorns around!" Scylla had been pulled in to a conversation with Onyx. "Unicorns are just a myth for us in the kingdom. They used to live in the great plains but were forced out. The last time anyone saw them was many years ago. Now they are only in story books" Scylla wanted to rush and see them right away. 

"Midnight and Onyx have spent some time with them and even made friends. I can assure you he is telling the truth. They are few in number but if they are treated right maybe the elves could foster the safe return of their species. That is if your kingdom forbids the hunting and selling of materials." Wade knew the exact way to play this situation. Scylla quickly returned to her serious demeanor. 

"Yes, it is another thing to discuss. I can promise this thing, my king would happily send any that threatened such a species to their death."
