Scars of Hathsin he/him Posted March 26 Report Share Posted March 26 (edited) Home, District Orodain Douglas trudged home, after a long day of working for the rich family that he had scored work for. What a stroke of luck. He had been hired to do some yard work, but after they had found out about his talent, he had been used for something else... spying. I would normally hate doing such work, but ... money is money. He tries to convince himself. But he knows that isn't true. He did like doing the work, it provided excitement, but more importantly it paid him well. He glanced at the full wallet that he had. Maybe I can look after us properly now... He thinks to himself, before walking back into the house. HG Arena "My talent is making things more prevalent, both senses, and feelings." Douglas replies, worried about the tone of the other person. Maybe it is time to get out of here. He starts to turn. Edited March 26 by Scars of Hathsin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
