Giving in, Eldrian agreed to play along with Skepsi's wiles. He even asked if she didn't want to up things to a multi stage quest. After all, he doubted just once would allow him to break through the crystal (as Skepsi had put it).
As Eldrian had analyzed it, he needed repeated forging to reach the peak. This was a truly common view. The stakes were simply far too high, making this absolutely basic subject a deadly thing to consider.
'It feels lacking. But people have died because of less,' Eldrian thought as he reviewed the details of the quest. Not having received one in a long time (and most of his old quests having expired) Eldrian was feeling somewhat nostalgic.
Of course, he had his quest to unlock his bloodline, but other than telling him to get the different elements, it was useless. It didn't even tell him what to do with them once he got them.
That, in particular, sucked. Recalling how he had ended up sacrificing the death crystal to defeat Zaphreal, and thereafter he lost his magic crystal in Elomir, Eldrian honestly felt defeated regarding that quest.
'Which is why I made sure she didn't play any tricks.' Eldrian thought, confirming again that things were simple and straightforward. Though, as one would expect, the thing he actually had to do wasn't as simple to define.
It wasn't that he just had to kill some tough enemies. He had to face people who were stronger than him and overcome the difference, not through luck, but through grit.
But there laid the problem. How would they define strength? After all, Eldrian could beat anyone who was stronger than him if they relied on static casting and the difference wasn't overwhelming between them.
Dynamic casting was simply too powerful, not to mention spirit magic and runic casting. And even if that couldn't close the distance, tapping into the powers of his auras should do the thing. This was what Skepsi hoped he would need to rely on.
The conclusion certainly wasn't perfect for either of them. But that was how they both knew it was the right conclusion.
Skepsi understood she had to give achievable goals for Eldrian to take part in the quest. She couldn't not do this. Saying that she would determine when he had achieved what was required would never fly.
As a result, Eldrian might get some easy wins at first. However, as he looked at his options, Eldrian felt his face stiffen. Indeed, as the quest name and rank showed, it would not be easy.
