After two long and terrifying missions, Beatrice the Kobold is finally going home to Southport where her master and her friends are. Spear of Light in hand, she heads back to her home. Back to a normal life...or at least that's what she hopes.

"Ah, alright. Its best not to keep him waiting then." She said, and she walked up to the door to open it and walk inside.
"Which is exactly why I'm proposing-Ah! Beatrice my dear! Glad to have you home. I hope the journey here wasn't too bad. I was just speaking to the good Captain here." He says gesturing to someone Beatrice wasn't expecting. Elanor gave Beatrice a smile and wave. "Good to see you again Bea." She says. Guess this is who the maid meant by a guest.
"Huh..." Beatrice would say under her breath, not at all expecting Elanor as the guest. "Thanks, and it wasn't that bad at all Master! And hello Elanor, I can't say I expected to see you here, but its a pleasant surprise."
"Please, close the door behind you and have a seat dear. This conversation will involve you too and is highly confidential." The Arch-Magus tells her.
"Oh, alright then." Beatrice said, closing and locking the door behind her before taking a seat like requested.
"First off, I'd like to thank you for all your hard work. I know it hasn't been easy for you, but I appreciate everything you've done as of late." He tells her with a calm smile.
Beatrice beamed at the praise. "I'm happy to be of such great service to you!"
"You did a great job Bea, you really helped out when that town needed to be evacuated." Elanor says with a smile. "Yes, I heard about that as well. I'm very proud of you. But, we're not here to shower praise on you although I wish that were the case. The next point to address is what you retrieved Beatrice. The Spear of Light. We need Elanor to asses her prowess with the weapon. With everything that we've learned so far, it's likely that we'll need its power for the up coming battles ahead." He states.
"Uh huh." Beatrice said. "But what do you mean by prowess with it? It can't be too different from just a regular spear... Right?"
"I'm sure you've felt it already Bea, but that spear is imbued with the Chieftain Goddess' power. The ability to banish corruption, to heal, to provide courage and push someone beyond their limits. Those are all things that the Goddess gives a Hero. If I want to utilize the full potential of the spear I have to attune myself to the power of the Goddess." Elanor explains. "Think of it like wearing the right outfit, one that accentuates your looks. Or something like that." The Arch-Magus says starting to trail off. He was never really good with analogy's, it was of his cuter flaws.
