When the two mages arrived at the town hall, the village council was lined up as they were before atop the steps to the town hall. As the adventurers approached the Village Elder spoke. "Behold, the heroes of Caloma! You have done this town a great service, and we will never forget that. For the help you have given, we have agreed to reward you a small monetary reward. I am sad to find out that the other two may not returning for they have chosen to stay behind, but we will be here if they ever choose to return. Now, before you depart there are some matters that we must take care of." The Elder sat down in his chair as the town cleric rose and stepped forward.
"My matter is simple, which is to satisfy any curiosities. Once the magic behind the disease was destroyed it was easy to discover the type of disease, the cure, and details regarding the magic. The disease was a magically created Curse which was intensified by a permanency spell, something of a very complex nature. The permanency spell was what was allowing it to spread through the air. When we attempted to cure people, they were in fact cured, but were immediately reinfected, it was an endless cycle. Destroying the magic ended the permanency of the disease, thus making it easy to fight. Unknown to you, I actually cast a simple spell to cure you while the Elder was talking. Other than that, I apologize for stealing Sorri away from you, but she wished to work for me for a short time. After we have finished, if you tell me your destination or future plans, I may be of some help to you." With that,t he cleric sat back down.
Next stood the sorceress who owned the magic shop. "Cave-dweller, before you departed I promised you a gift along with the others if you could prove your trust, and you have done more than that. In return, if you give me your spell book, I will copy any one spell into it that you desire, however it must be at the 3rd level of spells or below. Please speak to me once you are finished."
Lastly, the blacksmith came forward. "I have a special surprise for you. When you're finished with the other two, come talk to me, I'll be in my shop." The blacksmith walked down the steps and headed back towards his smithy, nodding to the two as he passed.
