John followed Bart inside. He waved goodbye to Talia for now before walking off. [color=turquoise]Well Bart, I got to admit, I'm a little uncomfortable here at the moment. I never really encountereda monster or anything and the descriptions I'm getting aren't exactly inviting.[/color] John paused for a moment as he sat down. [color=turquoise]I haven't been up to much Bart. Just helping Talia make a stable for the horses. Also, if you didn't find anyone to fix that hole out front, I can do it. As far as what I've been up to outside of this place, I couldn't risk taking some of my things on the road incase someone tried to rob me. I'm working on a magic weapon and I'm having it mailed here so I can finish it later. It's gonna take a bit to get here but I would prefer it sent directly to what ever room is now mine.[/color] John again paused. There was something he had meant to be asking. He thought about for a long enough time that it might cause a bit of concern. 

[color=turquoise]You know Bart.  I've been thinking for most of the day now. Why did you ask me to come along? I'm not a warrior or fighter, you guys already have a blacksmith with a skill set arguably better than mine. And I'm certain you didn't ask me to come along because I can patch up the roof. Did you really ask me to come along because Talia would need a helping hand? In my experience, a lot of people came to me for magic arms and armament. While I wouldn't say they are rare in my field, they aren't exactly easy to make. It just so happens, that I can in particular, use magic to enchant things much better than others. I'm not going to take offenseif that's the case, but is that why you asked me here?[/color]
