It wasn't often that Asher got praised. The only ones to do it was usually were his grandmother and Berk.
Getting compliments in the Crude Lands was not a regular thing and it was more common to hear swears than them. It wasn't unusual for the workers to be degraded tens of times in a day by the guards, and supervisors.
As such, Asher had never thought that he would be getting praised by Heretic of all people.
"It is good that there is ambient Miasma here, so it is easy to tell if a rune is correct. Otherwise it takes a lot more trial and error to do the same." Beryl spoke. 'If only they had this when I learned… it would've made it much easier.' He thought of his own past.
"I'll keep that in mind." Asher stated but then saw Beryl move.

The man suddenly wiped all of the runes, and spoke. "Now do it from memory."
"I'll try." Asher didn't back down from the challenge though and repeated them.
