*Shank taps his fingers against his pole as he wonders what kind of responsibilities he'd have. Sounds interesting. Might learn some combat skills. He hopes.*

"There's always time to learn. After all, you were just a merchant's child, and now look at you."
Mario
"Eh, I was sent to be a mage when I was 11 or 12. But I'm still learning to this day. Besides, you haven't seen anything that I can do yet."

*Talking about learning, he still had to find a way to figure out what that talisman could do after his trip to the Salvain Empire was fruitless.*

"You told me you could be stealthy. Care to elaborate?" *Nox asked*
Eric
"I can hide pretty well. Sneaking is something I'm decent at. Without giving away too much, I've also been forced to... "Change the owner" Of items before."

*Shank tilts his head again, tapping the pole against his knuckles.*

"So what are you capable of? You're a mage, but what kind?"
Mario
"Ahhh you mean permanently borrowing items. It's not honest work, but a valuable one if you know what to borrow." 

*Nox thought about it for awhile. There was this book he had wanted from another mage but was unable to buy.*

"Well, I can do a lot of things. You see this winged spear?"Now said as he tapped the winged spear on his back."I can shoot a column fire with it" *Nox left out the other things he could do, as smart mages always protects their art.*
Eric
"Impressive."

*Shank looks at the spear, with quiet awe. He really respected those who knew how to cast spells, and even wanted to learn just a little magic himself. As Shank is little more than an aimless wanderer right now, there was a lot of potential for him to become a mage. Or at least, a swordsman with basic magic knowledge. But who knows?*
