Chapter IV: Baldanders

“Now this,” muttered Orphen, “This is impressive.”

“You’re telling me. It actually helps though, this storage room was a nightmare to keep sorted.” Orphen and Claiomh were discussing the current state of the storage which was totally unlike how it had been previously.

Claiomh was the first to notice that the place had been ransacked, the reason being that apparently she frequented the room for strange or interesting articles whenever she got bored. Although ‘ransacked’ did little to sum up just what had happened to the room in the wake of its would-be thieves; it had been thoroughly cleaned. Not cleaned out, but cleaned up. Tidied meticulously.

“Given the state the place was in, I wouldn’t be surprised if that sword was worth less than most cleaners would’ve charged for the job.” Claiomh simply shrugged.

“In that case I just feel bad for them, because apparently they didn’t even get out of it with that much,” she said. “So they didn’t find it even after going through all these swords? How many hundreds are even here, for that matter?” “I once got bored enough to count a long time ago, and there was easily more than eight hundred. And that was when father was still alive, so it’s probably a lot more than that by now.” “Even if you knew exactly what you were looking for, that’s still easily enough to keep you busy searching for most of the day. I’m starting to see why Childman bothered with that letter in the first place instead of just looting it to begin with. But that brings me to my question: How do you know he didn’t make off with the sword? Even if Childman had time to check the entire inventory, it’s not like you went and did the same.” “I didn’t have to. He left another note. I haven’t told anyone else about it yet, I thought you’d want to see it first,” said Claiomh as she produced another slip of paper. Illuminated by the light flooding in from the corridor, it was a note that said simply ‘Have the sword ready to be collected by evening.’

“Good call, but you should still let your mother know about it. If those guys are coming back to retrieve the sword for sure this time, you can bet it’s gonna be at least as much of a commotion as last time,” advised Orphen.

“Hey,” said Claiomh, “Was this note written by the assassin from earlier?” “I doubt it. That Black Tiger guy was probably sent after us to cause a diversion, while the other one — Childman — broke into the house to look for the sword. Otherwise there’s absolutely no reason for one of them to attack us in broad daylight.” “Childman... He’s some crazy-strong Sorcerer, right?” “Yeah. He was my instructor back in the day. Even in the Tower of Fangs, he was called the strongest Sorcerer on the Continent. His reputation isn’t just for show, either. He’s the kind of professional who could kill people without batting an eye if that’s what the job demanded of him.
