It was the first time Ruwen had seen his dad’s details, and Ruwen’s increased Perception had given him a massive amount of information. Knight Defenders wore heavy armor and used a shield and sword, making it a good Class to adventure with. He focused on his mom.

Name: Clarysa Starfield

Class Type: Observer

Sub Class: Scout

Specialization: Ranger

Expertise: Pack Leader

Level: 33

Health: 500

Mana: 200

Energy: 986

Spirit: 0

Armor Class: 90

Ruwen stared in shock. His mom had always appeared as a Fighter. But Pack Leader was a Ranger Specialization. They were experts in surviving in the wild, and if what Lylan said was true, shapeshifting. Rangers could handle themselves in a fight much better than the Spy Specialization.

When Ruwen had the Observer Root Class, he’d already decided on the Scout Sub Class, but had struggled with what Specialization he’d take, Ranger or Spy. He had died before needing to choose, though, resetting his Root Class.

It also explained what had bothered Ruwen about his mom. Her high Dexterity had made her movements too precise. Assuming she was a Fighter had kept him from seeing the truth, which was a valuable lesson he needed to embrace. He couldn’t afford to have assumptions blind him. The stakes were too high.

As they walked toward the city, Ruwen couldn’t contain his questions. “Is it true you can turn into an animal?”

Clarysa looked at Ruwen and raised her eyebrows. “I have five points in Fabricate and should look like a Fighter to you. How could you possibly overcome that?”

Ruwen remembered how hard he’d worked to reach level five, just to get the Fabricate ability. He shrugged. “Rami doubles my Perception.”

“That is very valuable,” Colyn said.

“I know. I’m lucky she’s with me,” Ruwen said.

Clarysa nodded. “Most Scouts who Specialize in Ranger limit their shapeshifting. It’s physically painful, and it makes others uncomfortable. So most Rangers avoid it completely and no one talks about it.”

“Personally, I find the Spy’s ability to mimic another person far more disturbing,” Colyn said.

“It’s really hot, too. It takes a lot of energy to keep your body in a different shape, and the heat is sometimes unbearable.”

That was interesting and meant his Detect Temperature might pick a shapeshifter out of a crowd. Once Ruwen figured out the essence recipes for all the existing spells and abilities, he could use Spirit to replicate them. Well, once he could use Spirit in the open anyway. Who knew how long that would take. Still, the knowledge that shapeshifting was possible excited him.

As they neared the city, Ruwen wondered about Hamma and her dad, Niall. He’d been gone a lot longer than Ruwen’s parents. What were he and Hamma talking about? Ruwen thought about creating a group with Hamma to ask, but didn’t want to interrupt her reunion.

The temple came into view, and dim light spilled into the courtyard from inside the building. Hamma stood with another figure at the top of the stairs. Her companion was a tall thin man with Hamma’s brown eyes, blonde hair, and easy smile.

Hamma looked nervous, and Ruwen waved at her as they started up the stairs.
