Bab 150: Gears of Fate (5)

"Hey, so what does this actually do?" Zach rolled over on the back of his waggon and waved Jason's 'gift' in the air.

'What the hell have I done now?' Jason groaned internally as he put on a fake smile. "You'll just have to use it to find out..."

Jason chuckled as he tried to divert Zach's attention, as he broke out in a nervous sweat. He had no idea what the device did, but he knew he did not want to find out. His mind was vaguely warning him that it was something to be afraid of, but he could not gain any more details than that. 

'Let's hope he doesn't find a reason to use it.' Jason frowned as Zach rolled back over and played with his new 'toy'. Zach was beginning to think that Jason was not all bad. After all, who did not love getting something for free? As a merchant, he just knew how to appreciate it even more. In other words... He was wondering how much it was worth and if he could sell it.
