Master Of None

The garden was growing rather well even though the cold set in more and more each day. Dark green vines had begun to climb up some trellises set up in an archway. There appeared to be a roughly set up path snaking through an entire side of the garden. Walker could only imagine how nice it would be to wander through the growth as the sun rose.

The previous over grown spots of thorns had been completely torn out leaving only spaces for new plants to grow. Walker was imagining what would happen once all the new seeds he had were introduced, they would surely have the most wonderful garden in the kingdom.

Unfortunately nobody was outside at the moment so all the could do was enter. Once the doors were opened the party looked at each other, "three...two...one... WE'RE HOME!!!!!" They all yelled together causing their voices to echo.

Shuffling sounds were followed by loud running footsteps. Before walker could even turn Lisa had jumped on to his back in a huge hug. "Y—you we-were ggone so-o looong!!" Walker hadn't expected Lisa to fly in to full tears but it was to be expected after they were gone almost two whole months. Consoling Lisa walker didn't even see that Gils mother had come from the stairs. The two were already talking fast.

From what walker could hear his father was off on a hunt for wild boar. Gil found that funny since his father had always complained about not being able to take the time to do so in the past. Now with their new home he had taken full advantage to pursue one of his dreams.

Su had run off up the stairs towards her mother bedroom. After they got situated Walker mentally reminded himself to go there with the scroll he had stored to allow Su to use it on her mother. Hopefully there would be even more to celebrate tonight.

Remey was looking a bit dejected since she didn't have any family here than the party itself. "I'm sure my fathers off guarding something or other. So want to go see what my mother things about the feast tonight?" Walker tried to distract Remey and it seemed to work like a charm.

"Ha! Let's go midnight and tell miss hilda all about our adventures before walker does!" Midnight was happy to go to the kitchen, she had missed Hilda passing her scraps to her as she cooked. Remey stuck her tongue out at walker and ran off with midnight in her heels.

"So Lisa, don't you want to hear what happened? You know I fought some pretty gross undead. We even met one that's been alive for hundreds of years. He gave Remey something nice that she wants you to test your skills on." These words were enough to spark Lisa's curiosity. She released walker from her death grip of a hug and looked at him wondering why they weren't heading to the kitchen like Remey. "Hey Gil don't forget about dinner!" Walker teased as Gil was still rambling on sharing everything. Gil brushed him off waving his hand for him to go away.

Before walker could throw more teasing remarks Lisa had grabbed his hand and began to drag him. She may have still be smaller than him but she was stronger than she looked.

They soon reached the kitchen where they could hear Remey talking "spiders are just so gross and we saw two different kinds those weird grey ones on the rocks tried to sneak and jump but those super gross ones underground worse zombie skin and bone they smmmeellleeeddd sooooo baaddd." Walker laughed to himself knowing that Remey got along so well with his mother. It made him happy to know she had shaken herself from her prior sadness.

Remey noticed walker coming in and gave him a glare turning back to Hilda "and he has some spider eggs! You need to tell him he isn't allowed to hatch them!!!! He said we would auction them but he might be trying to fool me so he can have gross spider pets!" Remey was sneaky, she had involved his mother to make sure he wouldn't get another contracted monster. Her distaste for spiders knew no bounds.

"You come home and instead of bringing food and stories your brought spiders?" Hilda laughed at her own little joke knowing all too well walker and the rest of the party stopped to grab food.

As walker began to take the ingredients from his storage Lisa had clung to Remey. "Walker said you got a gift from someone and you were going to ask me to use my skills on it?" Lisa's excitement could not be contained to wait patiently.

"Hmm and did he say what it was?" Lisa shook her head no. "Good at least he knows that, walker can you give me that item?" Remey was used to teasing and creating mystery for her siblings at the orphanage and took on the act perfectly. She wasn't giving any hints until it was right in front of Lisa.

Remey and walker moved to obscure Lisa's vision as walker took the arcane silk from his storage. In the next second Remey spun around letting the free end wave and almost shimmer in the air. Lisa was star struck, this beautiful silk shine reflected in her eyes. This quality of fabric was something only the highest class seamstress or trailer could work with and there was a massive roll of it in front of her!

"Silk! Look it's silk! Mother they brought back silk!" Lisa was bouncing but holding herself back afraid to touch it just yet.

"Ehm well yes it's silk but it's called arcane silk, it's made from arcane silk worms thread. It's repels magic and is as strong as steel. So with your special needles you may be one of the only ones able to creat something from it." Walker was overjoyed seeing how happy his sister was. Their adventure may have had rough points but to know how happy the results made others was so much better.

"Actually because of this I had hope you could make something's for us." Remey spoke up on her plan.
