A Queen That Serves

What did you buy me?" Silent asked.

"I got something for your butterflies."

"I hope you didn't spend too much."

"It was nothing." Lucan said as he approached the exchange counter.

The clerk checked the records and then asked for 95,000 gold. Lucan paid it and received the evolution stone.

Silent was shocked by how much it cost. "This is too much; I can't take it."

"Don't worry, I bought something for myself. I spent more on me than I did on you. Take it." He said, forcing the small red crystal into her hand.

"Lord Quilldrake, the seller has requested a private room to complete the transaction. They do not wish to reveal their identity to the public. Please follow me."

Lucan did as instructed. Silent waited outside as Lucan entered the private room. An old man sat at a table waiting for Lucan.

"Are you already and acolyte or warlock under Raze?" He asked the man who replied with a nod.

"That makes it easy. Lend me your hand."
