can’t grab one to take with me.”

“They are fairly obvious as to their nature, Jax. You’d be spotted straight away.”

“Doesn’t mean I don’t want one, though,” I retorted. “Seriously, though guys, work with Cai, Ame, Flux, and Oren, keep things together, and I’ll see you soon. I hope. Now, I need to get my gear together, and you need to get back to work.” The pair of them clapped a fist to their chests and vanished.

I dismissed the map and left the room as well, I sent Jana running back up to the fortieth floor to make sure I’d not left anything anywhere, and I set off with Bane to round up the rest of my gear.

Once I’d gathered everything, I took it back to the ship and spread it out in the captain’s cabin, sorting through what I had. I’d really wanted to spend a few days at least making potions, but I just didn’t have the time.

I stuck my head back outside and shouted to Cai to make sure that Tel came with us, as he was going to get some Alchemical training on the ship, but to tell him that he would be staying with the ship, not coming to town. He was also expected to gather any and all of the ingredients he could find to bring with us. I needed a fuck-ton of potions, and a nice relaxing holiday… a trip on a flying fucking ship to sneak through a monster-infested sewer into an enemy-held city so I could rob it of people and gear would have to do.

“Oracle bring a basic Alchemy book as well, and one on Herbalism. Fuck holding everything back until we need it; we need it now.”

“Ooookay, Jax… I’ll be there soon.”

I felt the annoyance Oracle didn’t bother to hide from me as she turned back and returned to the Hall of Memories. I didn’t think she’d gotten far from it; it was hard to tell at this distance, but I had no doubt I’d be paying for it in some way.

I shrugged and returned to my gear, examining each piece’s condition. What I found wasn’t bad; my mostly complete ‘Night’s Embrace’ set had dropped a bit on its durability, but the rest still in decent shape. I pulled up the stats for them, checking each over quickly:
