Chapter 212

Chapter 212<~> Chapter 212

I slipped off the bed and cracked my neck. It was still pretty early but it wasn't comfortable to lay around in a bed stacked with so many people. I looked over at Morrigan hugging Torien from behind while they both still slept. Bella was still sleeping but I could tell Mimi was up as always. She wanted to know if she should follow me but I waved her down mentally. I think I wanted a bit of time to myself this morning.



While lacing up my boots I decided to look over my status again.

The only thing that's changed is that I managed to unlock the first level of Cartography. I wasn't anticipating learning it as a skill, through the system anyway, but maybe I shouldn't be surprised. It was knowledge that Sorsette's system reinforced so it made sense that there was a supporting skill. Maybe it was a little more surprising that there was an entire guild supporting people with the skill though. Thinking about that further, the cartography guild probably only existed as a middleman for paper and ink supplies. Something I know firsthand is pretty expensive in this world. And I suppose a guarantee that the freelancers who are hired for cartography jobs know what they're doing, otherwise what would be the point of me receiving a certification? It did make me wonder how many other trade guilds existed though. Blacksmiths from what I've seen so far operate more like direct businesses despite also requiring a lot of training. Maybe it's a bit easier to tell when physical objects aren't made correctly than maps. I didn't really know.



"You like it?" I asked.



She looked up and blushed. "Yeah, I've never had anything like a picture of my sister and me before. You said you didn't like this drawing... can have it?"



I frowned and scratched the base of my horn. "Well... it's messy charcoal and I don't have anything that can act as a fixative so it'll probably smudge pretty quickly. Plus I don't want to tear it out of my sketchbook. How about I draw something for you in ink? It'll be less messy that way... I should probably see if I can find some way to laminate things..." I said trailing off while thinking through some of the ritual components I had been studying.



Torien rubbed her arm awkwardly. "I... didn't mean to ask for something like that..."



I looked her in the eye and grinned at her. "I don't mind drawing for my friends," I emphasized. "For better or worse I just don't really want to give you that drawing is all. How about the two of you sit down and I'll draw a portrait? Something that won't get messed up as easily."



Morrigan smiled at Torien and dragged her over. "Come on Tori! Like you said! We've never had a drawing of ourselves before, let's not let this opportunity go to waste!"



I was happy Morrigan was so gung-ho about this. Torien almost never asks for things. "Sit down over there next to each other," I said pointing to a pair of chairs. "I'll be right back!" I ran to my room and grabbed one of the journals I haven't used yet. It had nice thick paper, a bit like cardstock. The surface was made with ink in mind so even though the paper was thick, it didn't absorb too much ink and had a pretty nice surface after the ink dried. I didn't have a pencil to work with so this would be a purely ink drawing. I don't think I've tried this kind of thing in this life but I was up for the challenge. I tore out two pages as carefully as I could and came back out to sit in front of the twins.



"Alright! Pose for me! How would you like this portrait to look? Are you two going to sit there still like boards or are you going to give me smiles?" I said enthusiastically.



I blocked in two drawings and got a feel for their expressions before telling them they could relax now. The two came over to watch me draw but I didn't mind. I'm not sure why but I didn't feel the least bit worried about people watching me work even though intellectually I would have thought that it might feel embarrassing. I just grinned as I worked on the two ink drawings. I intended to draw one for each of them so I took my time going back and forth between the two. This was also an interesting challenge and not something I've done before probably, but it was kind of fun to develop two slightly different images at the same time.



I smiled when I looked down at the two pictures I had drawn. Since I had the models in front of me, I was able to capture the charm that had been missing. Morrigan had a big grin on her face and had her arm over Torien's shoulder. Torien was looking at her sister with a sideways grin, slightly exasperated but happy and relaxed looking.



"Lilith! This is perfect!" Torien said with an ear-to-ear smile. "I can have this?"



"Of course, Torien. I made these for the two of you after all."



I went to sign my name in the corner and frowned. My fingers twitched and I paused... almost remembering a name I had scribbled hundreds of times before. I shook my head and signed my new name.
