Chapter Twenty-Six

QUINN

The difficulty of paving roads paled in comparison to constructing the bridge over the river. Aegis had to give precise instructions to Lina and Amlie, and, eventually, Pyri, Darkshot, and Rakkan as they arrived one by one throughout the evening.

Under Aegis’ guidance and utilizing his Architecture skill, the group of six finished the bridge as the sun set on the fourth day. The end result was a simple, smooth, and practical 25-foot-long dark gray stone bridge that arched slightly from the Orm side of the river to Rene’s side. Aegis was careful to line up the bridge so that it transitioned seamlessly into the paved road.

It had no railings or detailing yet, but the group tested its structural integrity by leading several lagnoks over it simultaneously. When six large lagnoks stomped over the bridge without it shaking or shifting, Aegis sighed with relief.

Level Up! Architecture has reached [Level 21]!

Level Up! Leadership has reached [Level 6]!

Attribute Up! You’ve gained +1 Strength.

Attribute Up! You’ve gained +1 Agility.

Attribute Up! You’ve gained +1 Constitution.

Attribute Up! You’ve gained +1 Charisma.

“You still want to be a doctor? You could become an architect,” Pyri commented as she eyed the bridge.

“It’s functional, but it’s a little boring, isn’t it?” Darkshot commented.

“I haven’t added the details yet,” Aegis replied.

“Good, good. Better you get some detailing practice on the bridge before you build the Shadow Tower.”

“No.”

“Tower of Shadows.”

“No.”

“Darkshot Castle.”

“Hmmm.” Aegis gave him a moment of hope. “No.”

“Aw, c’mon, those names are all great tower names,” Darkshot complained.

“They don’t fit in, though, right?” Rakkan replied.

“What’s that supposed to mean?” Darkshot squinted at Rakkan.

“Since Aegis is a Priest of Eirene and the land is named Rene, it should be themed around her, shouldn’t it? Eirene is the goddess of peace, and the more buildings attributed to her, the more likely that Aegis will get favor from her,” Rakkan replied enthusiastically.

“You know a lot about Eirene?” Aegis asked Rakkan.

“Yeah, most of the gods. I read a lot about them when I was a sage…” Rakkan’s voice quieted down.

“He’s right. Less edgy, more happy-go-lucky, peaceful names. How about the Tower of Light?” Aegis suggested.

“I just threw up a little,” Darkshot groaned. “I’ll come up with something. I gotta go to sleep, though. Unlike some people, I ain’t got no dreamstate. My sim-box is a hand-me-down.” Darkshot initiated his logout process. “G’night, see you in the morning. Don’t forget to shower.”

“I’m not using dreamstate either, so I’ll be back in a few hours.” Rakkan waved before logging out as well.

“Same, but thanks! For everything. It’s lots of fun!” Amlie waved with a big smile, leaving Pyri, Lina, and Aegis alone.

“A good mom would probably tell you to take a break…” Pyri looked at Aegis, who was pondering the bridge details, pacing around it while scratching his chin. She turned to Lina. “What about your parents?”

“Oh, mine?” Lina fiddled with her interface to check her friends list. “They’re online in Savringard. They like games, so they don’t mind as long as I eat with them and keep good hygiene…”

Pyri turned her attention back to her son.
