Beep, Beep, Beep. The UI internal alarm went off as very sleepy and rough-looking Ramur was forced awake to greet the living world in his camping tent.

"oooh my head, how much did I drink last night? what happened?" he thought to himself.

Before he could even think of an answer or notice where one of his hands was, he heard a voice next to him.

"Ramur watch where you end up putting your hand pal, I know we're close but not that close also you're up early for once, " Aran said with a rough and shy voice showing a little bit of a blush in his cheeks as he looks away.

Ramur looked at where his hand was and blushed a little before quickly moving it away "Sorry Aran urm oh, sorry but Aran why are you here and since my hand was urmmmmm...." He paused to think God my head hurts.

"I think I got way too drunk Aran sorry again I should just get ready to head out," Ramur said looking down unsure how to feel inside not knowing if anything did happen last night after the drinking as Aran was about to speak up and tell Ramur that it was okay, and that he trusts him. Leon that was also in the tent not known to both of them had heard everything.

From out of nowhere Leon Shouted out "If you both going to be like that after drinking too much I will just go and come back later but if you want to know. Nothing happened like what you both think I can tell I have been there and done that both with guys and girls... Anyways as I was saying nothing happened we all got drunk way too drunk Ramur here promised to show us the new shield he made for you and also the weapons and tell us about them but then as soon as we got to the tent you both passed out almost on top of each other and I just kind of went it's better than my sleeping bag so made myself at home in the corner. I am guessing in the night one of you grabbed the other hand and that's all lol"

"Nothing happened on my word as Leon Tinkerfoot, Honestly now can we just get ready, and then you get on with the show of what you made, or do you two want some alone time?" and with that, the little gnome walked out of the tent in his full gear leaving both dwarfs alone and blushing as they both try to collect their thoughts and feelings Ramur quickly looks away from Aran as he gets changed.

"Ramur, I know you did something with my skills again last night as well as I have been feeling off since I woke up and I know it's not from just the booze we had last night, so you better tell me what's up after you show me the new shield got it?" Aran said with a huff in his voice.

"Groans I did what now I don't remember to oooh me head good thing a carry these," Ramur says in pain as he pulls out a small charcoal-looking pill and without a word swallows it down with a drink from his water pouch lets out a huff and then leaves the tents feeling and looking a lot better.

"Woah you look a lot better what did you do," both Aran and Leon asked a little confused.

"oh yeah you both rushed out I was going to give you both one of these" Ramur pulls out two of the charcoal-looking pills and with a smile gives them one each "Just swallow it with some water and give it a tick or two and it will help get rid of the rough hand over," says Ramur waiting and watching.

They both quickly swallow it and drink some water thinking well what's the worst that could happen as 1 tick then 2 then even 3 goes by.

"Is something going to happen or what?" he says as stops midsentence and looks over at Leon that looks even healthier than normal as the effect kicks in on Aran, he can feel his body returning to normal with about a rush "Wow" is all he can say.

"You're welcome now I guess we best get this sorted as he points over to the table and then pulls out a bag and begins laying out the weapons.

"Well, Leon you remember those gauntlets I made for your monk, right?" Rumar says a little smugly "The fire and ice pair, well let's just say I took that idea and went above with these."

he then shows Leon a set of red leather and gold-plated iron gauntlets with fine fur trim along the inside as well as what looks like 4 gems on each hidden away as well as ruined writing on the inside of each glove.

"These are the element mark 2 gloves each stone holds a different element wind, fire, water, ice, etc there are 8 stones in total you can mix, and match so say fire and water would make a steam cloud you could fire it as a projective or on to the floor. It depends on how you use it. Think smarter as I always say. They also come with reinforcement enchantments for strengthening ki attacks, their flexible one size fits all and resistant to acid and cold damage."

"Yeah, after seeing how your orc monk friend Renfang handled that last set I made it got me thinking about how I could improve on them and that's when I came up with these bad boys. I named them the twin pains as they were a pain in the butt to make." Rumar said with a grin on his face.

"Next moving on to this wonderful piece of black steelwork is a sword but as you can tell by looking it over it is a chain sword, I based the prefab off my enchanted chain that I used on my pick to give it a wide range. This one is a lesser version with a twist the chains inside of the sword are mana joined and depending on the person's element the chain changes colour and effect."

"As you can see when I hold it the chain colour is black with the electric element. The name I choose for this weapon is the fate changer as in its fate changes with the person that uses it."

I showed them all that I had a few daggers, hammers a mage even a light staff for their healer then we got over to the locked glass case.

"Ohhh what are those in the case I have never seen you bring that out before, "Aran said a little settled by just looking at the case.

"These are the more deadly items that I made with the help of my shadow and as you can feel by the aura coming off them, they are cursed weapons. Take this one." Rumar points at a grey dead looking single-hanged sword with a ring pommel on its end no guard to speak on and a strange eye that seems as if to watching and waiting.

"As you can see even the head of the blade is a little off being mouth-looking. Its name is the DEVOURER, and its curse is that it will eat other weapons to become stronger but also eat part of the user's health to that."

"But then how come it's not eating the other cursed weapons." Leon looked a little worried.

"well you see Leon by testing it out myself a little I found out it can't eat other cursed weapons or items otherwise it also gets that curse as well, trust me this is version 2 of it you do not want to see version 1 and how deformed it became forcing it to eat other cursed items," Rumar said in a very straightforward tone.

"There are a few other cursed weapons and items in the case a bow that can freeze the target in place but when you aim you can't move. A gun that drains your mana to use as bullets the curse is that it gives you names of people that deep down you want to die if you don't it makes your life worst. Been meaning to destroy it but it well made."

"You have only shown us weapons so far what about items and other stuff," Leon says with a smile looking over the weapons so far.

"Well, this last item in the case is round-looking jewel black and red in colour it's called the dragon's eye and you will see why if you try looking at it," Ramur said looking away

Aran looks over at it nervously and as he does it blinks, and a flame eye appears in the middle of the gem. Aran moves back as he and everyone else hear a voice.

"So, this is the boy am going to be part of to help my maker." The unknown voice scoffed "Weak, pathetic I have no time for lesser creatures now either show me your worthy or let me sleep."

Aran being taken aback while this is happening looks a little shaken up while Leon just stops and listens to this unknown voice as Rumar interjects "Sleep now and hold your judgment your housing is nearly ready and fitting of your former majesty." Rumar speaks this with a fire in his heart and the gem dims down and the air goes a little colder.

"What in the fuck was that." Leon finally spoke up "And why do you have it, or don't I want to know?"

"That was the soul of a dragon that is now stuck inside the gemstone of its eye. The trader I bought the Gem and Dragons Breath, I told you about. Well, I did not know that it was the Dragons last breath not a normal breath from a Dragon. You know the one the trader I mean the one in the warehouse area." Rumar said looking down.

"What's the difference between normal dragons' breath and the last breath," Aran says a little confused.

Well normal dragons' breath is their fire if you can catch it you can use it to make all sorts of things and it's pricey but well worth it the other the last breath is the soul of the dragon the very thing that makes up what a dragon and well when I forged the gem and the shield and the same time I could not tell it was a last dragon breath and that how you ended up with this dragons eyepiece." Rumar explained the best he could.

"Oh wow, so what did you trade to get a dragon's eye and the dragon's breath," Aran asked wondering.

"Bits and pieces mostly a few rings I made a belt most of it I can't tell you about or what they do and one item I wish I never traded was a two-handed great sword that was stolen after the trade and later to be found out that it was a cursed item and It's curse gives the user super hearing while using it but drains them of their eyesight every time they use it until there fully blind and their eyes become part of the blade I hear people have named It The Eye Catcher ."

"That's just wrong and messed up on so many levels man." Aran said, "But knowing you I am guessing at the time you sold it you did not know it was cursed and well what happens, happens for a reason Father always said." Aran smiles at Ramur and then asks about the belt.

"Oh, that old thing I made it about 3 or 4 months ago it gives the user the strength of a dwarf plus their understanding meaning that the person if there a non-dwarf would be able to read, write and speak dwarf also comes with a dwarfs love for the drink." Rumar laughs

"Unless you were talking about the other belt which when you throw it summons a trapped snake which is a little snake that trips the person stepping on it and stops them moving for a little while."

"Well, that's it for now we just got to finish up making your shield Aran and I will look over the skills and we can figure out what I did with your skills," Rumar says looking down are Aran still thinking a little bit about this morning as he blushes, he pulls out from his other bag of holding a shield as he past is over to Aran, he gets a look at the wonderful gift his friend has made.

"Wow just wow did you finish this off with polished white quartz stone ad well as golden inlay? it looks way too fantasy for someone who made a captain of the guard or someone of the knight's order but for trainee city watchmen way too fancy. "Aran said in disbelief and a little a bit annoyed at Rumar as he knows how much that would have cost and the time, he would have but in being one of his closest friends.

Rumar takes a quick look over the shield again before he hangs it over.

"Yeah, you know me too well, and yes I can tell you a little pissed right now, but I wanted to make you something special one of a kind and if you want to know under the finished layer there is a layer of blessed sliver the main body is made out of lighten and reinforced steel. The hole in the middle is what you can tell is for your soon-to-be new friend. Ramur Then gives Aran gloves and tells him he has to be the one to insert the dragon's eye into his new home otherwise it will still think it is now worth his time.

Ramur passes him the shield and then unlocks the case as Aran puts on the gloves. while Aran puts the gloves on, he quickly checks over Aran's skillset and notices all of his basic defence skills are greyed out and say unavailable on them but under them are 2 new skills and one combo skill Anchor, Howling, and the combo skill Anchor Howling before he can click into any of them.

"Ready," Aran said looking nervous.

"Do it quickly now and then we can look at your skills fully I had a quick check, and I can see why you feel off," Rumar says as I move to let Aran grab the Dragons eye as he looks at it again.

He quickly grabs it and slots it into the shield as he knows to follow what Rumar said when dealing with cursed items which is either never touching them or following his order to the letter. The Dragon eye awakens and looks around its new housing.

"It's an improvement for now but nowhere near my former glory as a red dragon." The eye spoke in a tough and arrogant tone.

"Don't you dare speak to Ramur like this he made you this for us and I know how long something like this one takes to make and the cost is properly more than a dragon like you could hoard." Aran shouts at him.

"Why, you dare to speak to me like this you little whelp do you have any idea of who and what I am." The eye shouted back

"Both of you shut up and get along or so help me I will feel you to the mark one Devour weapon and Aran you will be barred from my house and the shop for a month got it?" Rumar shouted at both in a fit of rage black smoke pouring off his form as he pants and slowly calms down over the next 5 minutes Aran and the Dragon eye work out that they might as well be a team since they were going to be stuck with each other.

"Now once you seem to be getting along? Tune to each other it should fix why you feel off Aran as I kind of used all your common skills to make new ones and the old ones are currently not usable but with the shield, they all should back am 95% sure. I was originally going to use that shield as a test to see if rune crafting your skills on it would force level them up." Rumar said with a nervous laugh.

"You what? Why do try with you sometimes honestly? I guess I have no choice in the matter?" Aran hoping that what Rumar said will work.

after a good 5 to 10 minutes the item and new owner are set and tuned to each other's magical aura. A ding can be heard from Rumar's UI HUD Guard skill available, Taunt skill available and so on then the final skill came. New Cursed skill unlocked and added to special skill menu.

Anchor: Skill on self or target area use.

On self-use: skill gives a big buff to amour and makes the area around the use rough and harder to move.

On Target use: Area is the effect with a strong effect of gravity magic making anyone in the area barely able to move.

Howling: Skill on self-use only

On self-use: The eye of the shield lets out a mighty howl making all targets forced to target the owner of the shield failing to do so targets will take bleeding and psychic damage.

Combo Skill: Anchor Howling: On self and shield skill with AOE (area of effect)

On Use: The shield changes form to that of a huge dragon's eye and lets out a howl that does damage to any target other than the user and party members anyone weaker than the user is forced to flee taking extra damage as they do. Enemies within the area around the target a forced prone and take damage when getting up plus have the debuff slowed applied to them. (1 use per 2 days)

Cursed Skill: Judgement of the soul and sight: Shield's eye cursed skill on self

On use: The eye on the shield grows to the full size of the shield turns a dark red and shouts Judgment and anyone it can see in front of it that's an enemy gets hit with a wave of fear, dread, confusion, and has all of its mana drained till it hits 0 or till it leaves the aoe range of the cast. (Once every 3 days)

Penalty/Curse: As the owner of the shield uses the skill his eyes slowly turn to become more draconic over even more uses the owner's body will even begin to change till his race class changes to that of a dragon-born or Dragon Newt.

"The new skills seem good Aran just a shame about the curse on the judgment skill," Ramur said as he is looking for them over the two dwarfs looking at the UI's.

"Yeah, I guess so but hey it means I will only use it if it's life and death," Aran said with a laugh.

After a while of double-checking their gear doing a few more trades and fixing some stuff, they both closed the shop down they quickly said their goodbyes to Leon and his party and start making their way make to the Abyssal Forest Door once again as they stand in front of the huge reinforced stone door. Rumar presses his hand over the imprint and sends some mana through it. after a few seconds, an eye-like objection comes out from the wall and scans them both on his UI it displays scanning in progress, it then *Dings* Scan complete party of 2 no issues access granted, and then with that, it slowly begins to open you can feel the darkness of the void beyond than that they now must enter. The stale smell of the air followed by that of the obsidian trees even the smell of the earth hits their noises as it opens more, they take one quick look at the side of the door which says about the goblin warning, and then the darkness.

As the door shuts behind them quickly this time to not allow intruders in, they are left in this darkness as their eyes adjust using their dark vision skills, which they as a race are born with.
