After having several minutes of silence at the dinner table, Seth cleaned her plate and broke the silence by setting her fork to balance on her plate. She wasn't good about beating around the bush, so going for what was on her mind, she cut to the chase as she glanced up from her plate and across the table to her father. "Dad, did you finish the king's sword yet?"

"I did." Kel stated flatly between having finished chewing and being ready to take another bite from his fork.

"Do you want to deliver it to him before the coronation?" Seth pressed.

"Not really." Kel stated bluntly as he was finishing up his meal.

"I could deliver it for you if you want," Seth continued to pressure.

Raising an eyebrow, Kel stared back at his daughter. "You seem quite concerned for his safety. What's with you? I didn't think you were into much older men." He shrugged before standing up to take his plate to the sink.

"It's nothing like that!" Seth shouted and waved her arms, reddening with embarrassed at the assumption. "I just thought we could kill two birds with one stone you know? Warn him about Ardere Isola and deliver his weapon at the same time." She deflected, looking down at the floor.

Looking up from her plate, Maryl stared straight ahead off into space, through the wall ahead. "Well... maybe we don't need to warn him. I... think he knows already." Unconsciously tapping her fingers against the table for a moment, Maryl turned her gaze to her flustered sibling. "I think he might just have others who might be willing to support him this time. At least, they might have their reasons, even if it isn't for peace bringing purposes." Feeling confident, Maryl nodded before sliding out of her chair and taking her plate to the sink.

A bit confused at Maryl's words, Kel shrugged as he headed for the kitchen doorway. Poking his head back in as he stepped out, Kel tried to console Seth. "Look, I'll take it to him tomorrow and see what comes up. Just relax. Unlike the mismanaged nation of Earth, Water has someone who will actually take charge. sorta... eventually" He then exited to the hall and made his way down the hall to head toward the back of the house.

Seth managed a slow nod, "Well, if you're sure," she conceded to Maryl and her father before getting up to clean up her spot from dinner. She didn't want to expect the worst but it was difficult not to imagine after experiencing it first hand.

A man knocked on the door outside and said gruffly, "I am in need of weapons, is the smith home?"

Hearing the knock at the shop door, Seth called out, hoping her father would hear her from where she was, "DAD!"

"I heard!," Kel returned as he made his way to the parlor from the back of the house. Slowly, he opened the door partway to get a better look at who it was speaking from just beyond it. "Yes?", Kel asked as he leaned on the doorframe.

"Excuse me sir, I have come from the Earth kingdom and I am in need of a new..." He paused thinking, "Everything actually. A new everything. Long sword, daggers, and any arrows if you got 'em." The man on the other side of the door sounded a bit embarrassed at admitting he had no weaponry on him whatsoever. He was an animal for a very long time and hadn't needed such things in years. "If you don't mind I would like to come in and see your work? I can pay whatever price you ask. I'm in hurry to get to the castle."

Folding his arms, Kel shrugged. "You'll have to see a fletcher about arrows, and I don't keep examples on the premises. It'd be a pretty big security risk if I did." Stepping out of the doorway, Kel took a small paper pad off the wall and a pencil and began writing as he asked, "Okay, any particular specifications to your blades?"

The man looked a little bit bewildered. The last time he had swung a blade or even held one had been ten years ago when he was still a boy. Instead of making a bigger fool out of himself he handed Kel a pouch full of a large sum of money. "I don't care as long as it's the finest you could make. I suppose a long sword and then two small daggers would do. I am in a hurry so if it's not too much trouble bring it by the castle. My name is Raoul, it shouldn't be too hard to find me." With that he turned around and left as quickly as he came.
There was much to do with little time.

Kel immediately raised an eyebrow at the sudden silence. He figured his question was legitimate as he was a custom smith. He almost fumbled his notepad after being handed the money, but through great dexterity managed to rearrange pencil, coin bag, and notepad in hand to be able to scribble down the flustered ranger's name before seeing him run off in a hurry. "o-kay."

Since the guy was so eager to order and pay, Kel figured he couldn't refuse. Returning quietly to the workshop, Kel placed the money on a scale to weigh it, as he placed the order notes on the table next to the scale. For what was paid, there were plenty of possibilities, but Kel had to figure them out quickly before he could begin crafting.

Maryl muddled about her room for the evening. It had been months now, but it was still a sight to take in having her own bedroom. A place she didn't have to buy temporarily or leave in good condition for someone else, where she could spread out her own possessions and exist comfortably whenever she needed some private time. Having safety removed as a concern, Maryl had been going over her spellbook before just laying down and looking up at the ceiling from her bed.

As Menos approached the solitary home, he checked the visible windows for light and listened for signs of activity before approaching the shop door. He only needed a second to recompose himself before he rapped upon the door. "Kel, I need a word with you!", he called into the door with a raised voice.

Almost pounding his work table, Kel stood up rather irritated. "Is everybody going to come around at dusk or later? Is the daylight such a hazard? Are all my customers secretly vampires lately?" After a sigh, he took Menos' commission in hand before walking across the workshop to the door. Giving the door a quick yank, Kel opened the shop entry, and held out the weapon in its wrapping. "You're here a bit early, but it's done. Here."

"Already?" he asked somewhat taken back by Kel's speedy work, "You work quickly." He took a moment to unsheathe the blade and inspect it along the edges, the fuller, and the hilt. "Incredible craftsmanship by the way, However I came to ask your advice as well." It took a moment to avoid being distracted by amazement at his new weapon. Even the runes were flawless. He had to force his eyes away from the sword to focus.

"Right now, Fire has me at a crossroads. It is either the crown, or the people of water. I have it on good authority that they are aiming to attack some of my nation's territory, likely sometime around the ceremony when I would be most distracted and incapable of stopping them. Even if I could, I have no idea where they would strike. I can't be everywhere at once. Of course if it isn't at the castle they could just think to abandon the elementi avarice and just take the crown by force." Menos placed his sword over his shoulder and nodded, somewhat empowered by the added weight. "I took a large risk coming here just to ask you. They could be threatening the chancellor right now, still I didn't know where else to turn."

Kel was a bit put off by such a plight at such a time of day, but he didn't want to stress out over it as much as Menos seemed to be right now. After a moment to think about it, Kel raised one finger as he started to work out a possible plan. "Tell you what, If you can give me something to take to your people, I can issue the warning for you. I may not look it, but I'm a swift traveler." He nodded, noticing how distracted Menos was at the sight of his new weapon as well. This reaction was a common sight to Kel anyway. He had been long past the point of using his craft to earn his keep.

Menos patted himself checking for something to write on and with, but at the moment didn't have anything. He was a bit flustered by this, but he didn't have any opportunity to prepare before hand regardless. "I'll need some parchment and a pen. It doesn't have to be royal quality with a sealed envelope, any of the senior officers within our navy would immediately recognize my handwriting." Reaching up to his shoulders, he took a moment to unhook his cloak from his breastplate to take it off. He unfurled it in front of him, showing the back side of the cloak and its design to Kel as he raised it slightly. "Take this cloak, it has my family's royal seal. Our armies won't attack you if they see you wear this." Menos glanced over his shoulder briefly with a small grin. "While you're there, you could probably request a tabard from the Recon Island base quartermaster."
