Bab 157: Chapter 157

"So, I take it you remained behind to look after the facility when everyone else left?" Cain asks the wizened Elf who is looking longingly at the tea. 

"Spot on young man. I am in charge here. I was then, I am now. So everything that happens here is my jurisdiction. I couldn't just let the place rot and be looted now could I?"

"I don't suppose there are any remaining skill books around on dual sword combat techniques are there? That's what we were hoping to find in the ruins. Instead, we found a whole city locked up like a time capsule."
