The End & Beginning
Chapter 3
The two friends made to thier way to the local walkway for nobles, and this is where Rumar had one of his great ideas again. Rumar open is crystal Hud and checked over his stats as normal a lot of things with either locked or incomplete.
The Cystal system Hud as they were taught is school is locked behind your rank in the noble world or so they were told till one day Rumar while tinkering unlocked the display for his level (level 8) which also has a lock next to it which being his thinking means he can either never level up or it tied to something else.
Rumar goes to wave is hand over the crystal and the noble walkway as he is about to do that he hears.
"No, you know what will happen if you do that" says Aran
"Nah it will be fine trust me" Rumar says back to Aran.
As waves his hand over it a computer voice can be heard "scanning, scanning in progress"
His crystal chimes "Hacking in progress"
a little bit of time passes the computer voice chimes back in "error, error" "unauthorized persons" and with that it shocks Rumar which would normally stun a person out cold, but this has happened many times before, so it had till effect on him
The computer voice Chimes again "local enforcement is on the way"
They hear this they and quick dash way once them out of site they calm down for a few moments. After that fun time, they slowly make their way across the 3rd floor of this huge underground kingdom passing by a few different merchants selling food, weapons and other goods as they made their way to the nearest decent elevator as they arrived guards wearing heavy plate mail amour proudly displaying the crest of this town greeted them.
"State your household name in full, your crest and business for requesting access that or show us your crystal and we can grab the info off there" the first guard said.
"Quickly now we have many other people here waiting" the other guard said in a much more aggressive tone.
"Rumar Black-Iron, house crest of the Iron Anvil my business is supplies from the mine for head smith Black-Iron" he says then shows off his official badge showing his picture name rank job tittle etc."
"Yes, all is in order here and what about your friend here" he says as he wastes no time pointing to Aran.
Aran pulls out his Badge "Aran Winwood, house crest of the copper coin and trainee guard my is friend is also here to train down in the mine, if that is okay sir's he also shows them this crystal Hud confirming all the info" Aran spoke back the same way the guard spoke to him.
"Very well you both may pass access to the 3rd,5th and 6th floors only and boy you better watch your togue or you may soon lose it" the second guard growled back at him.
Aran and Rumar both got on the old lever system style elevator it creaked a little and as it begins to move, they began to chat as they will slowly dropped into the darkness of the lower levels the Cavan below almost seeing to have no end.
As the minutes passed into an hour, they could tell they were making the way down slowly into the darkened abyss thanks to their Darkvision then suddenly it all came to a stop.
"6th floor mine and storage everyone off" the attendant spoke in a loud and clear voice echoing off the mine walls.
