The elf smirked a bit at the time. "The gauntlet I can give answer to in five minutes if you wait. I'll just havhe to find the right symbol in an arcane codex, and that's it. Its simple enough, but there's a rune for each word, not every letter, so it takes a bit to look through. Thankfully, a bit of magic helps find only the ones that resemble your symbol closely so it should be a quicker bit of work because of that." Smirking still the elf waited for Marric to take up the gold, pulling out a handy haversack from the nearby shelf.<br/><br/>"It is two thousand gold for the handy haversack, and as for the identification work, for you I<em>owe it</em>for your help, but as for the book, I think that a small payment would be best. Hundred gold?" The elf's suggestion had the halfling sigh but nod. "How long will it take?"<br/><br/>The elf shrugged a bit and took a deep breath. "It'll be a moment to cast the spells to identify magics but I doubt it will be that easy. I'll spend a few hours going through it later."<br/><br/>Lissu nod her head a bit pulling out the hundred gold to set it on the table, whispering to Marric.<em>"I'll have to find out, its too weird having no idea."</em>
