Jack looked about his parent's pub, the place he had grown up for sixteen years of his life. He took another swig on his pint of ale. His parents had took the news that he was going away quite well. They accepted that life in the Dale was not for him and his mother knew that he was destined for bigger things.
"You don't really believe in the book do you?" Jadae broke him from his line of thought. He looked at the smithy and then Arethin.
"Honestly? No I don't but that is of little matter to me. If we find nothing then at the very least I have travelled somewhere."
"And what if the book is real, what then?" Replied Jadae. Jack took a thoughtful sip on his pint.
"Pretty much the same I guess, your the ones that want the book, I just want the adventure." Jadae and Arethin exchanged looks. "Excuse for a few minutes I have to get some small supplies from upstairs." Jack finished off his ale before heading upstairs leaving Jadae and Arethin waiting at he bar for any of the others who may decide to take the challenge.
