The past couple of days had been far from easy for the young rider. Her tussle with Z'fer had left her mood ranging from angry to depressed and every emotion inbetween as she'd thrown herself into the salvage operation hoping to make a dent in it if only to take her mind off of her situation. However the constant repetitive work of shifting through the rubble had only left the red head with more time to think and after some trepidation had decided to seek out a journeyman or master in the smightcraft or leather craft to possibly give her some basic lessons. If she and Devith were to persue the possibility of becoming Wardens then she would take Bereck's suggestion and look into two of the crafts he had mentioned might give her an edge. If nothing else she'd at least learn how to determine decent material and armor in leathercraft and perhaps the basics of the making and repairing of the blades she would need to fight with.

Over all it was a dishearteningly large task, but one like any other Hekate chased after with determination. Her leads though had finally lead her to a journeyman smithcrafter whom she'd tracked down to the mess hall making it a point to take a seat across from the man with a small smile. "You wouldn't happen to be Journeyman Aleck now would you?" She questioned with a slight tilt of her head her gold eyes bright with curiosity.
