“So, if I stay in the shadows, people can’t see me?”

“Depends on how high their perception is, and how well you can hide.”

“Cool.” I went down the list of stat bonuses. “What would you put my points in?”

“That’s for you to decide.”

I used the deflection spell again and pushed another book over. “When do I get the cool push spell, or that dagger throw thing? Ooh, or the tendrils of death?”

“When you’re ready for them. First, you must get some clothes. Do you know why they wear hoods? It creates its own shadow.”

“You don’t wear one,” I observed. “Why?”

He smiled and moved his hand above him. A cloud of blackness moved over him, and he disappeared. I moved, trying to see him, and when I squinted, I saw the edge of something that might have been him.

Then he breathed out a heavy breath and reappeared. “You see? As a Shadow Caster, you don’t need hoods or robes, or any of those parlor tricks; you create your own shadows.”

I never wanted to master a spec more than this one. My mind raced with the possibilities in this world. But first, I had a favor to fill and a job to complete. I hadn’t received the reputation of being an honest farmer by screwing over my benefactors, and I wasn’t going to start now.

Sephorus needed a piece of the Spider Queen’s heart, and I intended to get it. He’d said that would help in getting into Trinity Hall, where the real treasure of this world rested.

“So, what now?” I asked.

“Go to the Shadow clan house and report to Denton. He might not like the path you’ve chosen, but you are Shadow, so he will have to acknowledge you and give you another quest. But don’t think he won’t try to make your life hard.”

“Okay. I’m sort of used to that.” I hesitated to ask the next question. “What about the reward? You said if I impressed you . . . .”

“I’m glad you’re asking. It shows you have gumption, no one’s going to push you around.” Lukin went to a book case and pulled a book out. The case slid open and revealed a safe. He placed his hand on the screen and a massive metal door opened. He pulled out a wooden box. While he was doing this, I got a good look at the inside of his safe, and saw various boxes, weapons, and scrolls stuffed in there.

He closed the safe, then brought the wooden box over to me and set it on the table.

I went to it and pulled open the wooden lid, revealing a rather large egg inside. “What’s this?”

“Did you know you can take on a companion in this world?”

“A companion?”

“A pet you can call on for help. If you get the right one, you can do some amazing things.”

I stared at the egg. “Do I just break it open?”

“Yes, and the second you do, whatever companion resides in there is what you get.”

I picked the egg up and cracked the side of it on the table.
