| How long had it been.. How many miles had Speculo gone since he left his dark guild? Since then it had just been putting one foot in front of the other, find something to eat, find someplace to sleep. Keep walking. Starting from the Phoenix Mountains where his guild was, he had made it all the way to a Village. The sounds of people going about their day woke Spec from his state of aloofness, staring at the ground for hours as he moved. Looking up at a Sign, he found where he was. Peace Village. He walked into town, looking at the shops and the people. All of them seemed.. happy. Everything was in great repair, and people were enjoying their life. "Hey, are you a mage?" A woman asked Speculo. "Hmm? Oh, uh, yes, I am. Can I, uh help you?" He was new to this. "Yes! You can! Hey, I have a job for you. It should be pretty easy if you have magic." "A job?" He did need the money.. "Alright, what can I do for you?" "Here, follow me. You can entertain!" The lady seemed triumphant. On the way to.. where she was taking him, Spec was contemplating the job. Entertainment? With Magic? But, my magic was influenced to harm and maim. How could it make people happy? But when they arrived, at a childrens ward at the local hospital, He understood. "These children.. They look so.. lifeless." "Yes, well, the mage that we did hire to entertain them was asking for too much money. We couldn't afford him anymore. Since then, the children are reduced to just staying on their beds, waiting to be well enough to run off back home." "And you want me to entertain them." "That's right." Spec had a big soft spot for kids. Seeing so many look so.. down.. He couldn't stand that. "I'll take the job." He smiled at the woman. "You will?!" A light shined in her eyes. "Uh, yeah." Spec stood there, a little confused. He never was good at telling peoples emotions very well. Probably because of how he was raised, but that was way in the past. "That's great! But, we need to talk about money.. How abou-" Speculo stopped her. "I'm fine with nothing. Making these kids happy will be good enough for me. She teared up a little, then stuck out her hand. "I'm Gladys. What's your name?" Why was she about to cry? "I'm Speculo. But, call me Spec." "Speculo. Got it. Well, I need to get back to work. Thank you so much." And then she was off. Spec looked through the door at the children, then remembered. And sighed. He had no clue how to use his magic to entertain. |
