Zanfire's memoirs page 19
I expected it to be hot but the heat never reached me, but the ice slowly started to melt with several inches of ice around my leg this was going to take awhile but as I waited I started to doze off.
I woke up several hours later with the ice gone and my leg in the fire but my flesh wasn’t burning or even in pain. I would even say it was plesant. But before i could ponder about it zad walked in so i had to yank my leg out quickly. He sees the leg out the ice and smiles" thank goodness i was worried that your leg would never thaw out" zad said happily. I respond “ you are not that powerful as a sorcerer at least not yet.” he glares at me.“ but may be that strong some day” I continue. Listen zad I’m going to be leaving for a little bit and can you help out here in my stead.“ “Why do you have to go” he asks. “a friend of mine who lives in the capital is in trouble and im going to help him get out of there. But don’t tell anyone about this.” i explain “Ok but you’ll owe me when you get back” zad says with a smirk. “when do you leave?”
“In a couple days is what I’m expecting. Don’t know how long I will be there. ” I say with a sigh “But the pay he is offering to help him is good so i couldn’t refuse.”
“ How much is he paying you?” you ask curiously.
“More than enough to motivate me to do it. ” i answer quickly realizing i let that slip.
