[open] A gift of Magic; ANY

[Rodrik]

Rodrik flicks his gaze quickly to the once jungle mare. He had not recognized her when he came. In fact, he was distracted about what was at hand right now. Casual greetings and anything of the sorts meant nothing to him. He simply laughs quietly at her, “Prague was it?” he asks for a moment trying to recall their encounter years ago. The red stallion had frequently found himself in the jungle many times. He had been raised there during his childhood. He had seen life and death pass through there more than once. “Yes, I am Rodrik.” A name that was beginning to be passed around again, like a snake it would sneak back into the mouths of others. He wonders what kind of taste it will leave now—last time it had be quite bad. He turns his attention back to the girl. She offers them all a great power, but he wonders if she knows exactly what she is doing. The girl asks for things that do not come easily, things they cannot promise. Prague is the first to offer her service of such. “A warrior like Prague is what you need. She is from a kingdom that was known for the fiercest warriors. She has the skill and knowledge to make you a well-rounded fighter.” In a world that was no longer theirs. This was their new world. He does not find it odd to boost the ego of the sisterhood. His own mother had been queen there and he had always been fond of the women in the jungle. “I have already given you my offer,” he says firmly. It was something he has never been so willingly to give now. Rodrik never gave such an offer before to anyone. “I will do you one favor. The task does not matter. All you will need to do is simply ask me when the time comes.” A devil’s dealing, but Rodrik meant what he said. He would keep his word on this as the exchange was very worth it. “Only one favor.” He reminds her.
