Sweat poured quietly down as Jennifer digs out a path a little further into the ground. Alongside her are a couple villager woman and a couple of the kids. They use handcrafted tools.

The food was delicious in fact - Jeffery ate with his hands as was custom. it was a mixture of rice and a soup of sorts. There were a lot of things like meat, tomatoes and others that he couldn't quite tell.
After paying the owner they left the small cafe and started walking past some other stores to the car.
"ooh," Sarah spoke as they past buy a small store of jewelry and walked inside, "i wanna buy a bracelet...you guys go ahead."
Seth looked at Jeff which basically said, 'girls, am I right?'
Jeff was about to wait there with Seth for Sarah when he had a thought. After seeing all the street vendors and foods.
"Hey," Jeff had a thought, "shouldn't we get something for Jennifer to eat?"
"haha..." Seth replied, "she's probably going to eat at the village..."
"Oh... okay," he said slightly disappointed. He did think it would be nice to bury the hatchet.
Seth sighed,"ahhh... but if you really want to- maybe you can get her a snack or something... you should probably get more than just her though..." Seth handed him a note of the local currency. "i'll help you pick it out- but since it's your idea, you should pay me back with interest - haha."
Jeff smiled and looked around. He slightly wondered if Seth would actually make a killing on loans by the end of the tour.
"If this is how it's going to be at the end of the- you should make a killing off me by the end of this."

"Yeah, i plan for everyone to owe me the ten grand they get for completing the tour, haha," Seth smiled jokingly, "there's no way that'd happen, though... the currency isn't worth anything to the USD here. You'd probably owe me the equivalent of fifteen dollars max..."

After touring the shops for something to get- they arrived back at the village. Seth waved to the oncomers as they got out of the jeep. The kids rushed up again to see them. They were all quite cheerful as if they were the best thing since sliced bread.
It had already gotten almost evening.
They unloaded the barrels of water and replaced the old ones with it. The villagers seemed very interested and it seemed that many of them already started using the water as soon as they brought it.
"Hujambo," Jeff spoke to the familiar older gentleman from before, "Jennifer, iko wapi?" (hi, where is Jennifer)

8 97Saga of the Storm Wizard
Rose Cooper had always been told she has a lot of potential as a wizard cadet. Too much, in fact; her weather magic frequently ran wild when her emotions got the better of her. That was why the mission to uncover a lost magical artifact in the Spratly Islands was perfect for her. They were no man's land, abandoned by both the demonic Grim Horde and the human Anti-Demonic League. All Rose would have to do to do was keep the weather under control. All of that talk of the Spratly Curse was just superstition and nonsense spread by bored sailors. If only. Evil wore many masks, as Rose was about to discover.

Ferrian has been running his whole life. Running, because he has no choice. Wherever he goes, Winter follows. Wherever he sleeps, frost creeps at his door. From town to town he hastens, frightened, tired; forever trying to keep one step ahead of the cold, the snow and the devastating storms. It is a kind of curse, and Ferrian has no idea what it means. Only someone with a knowledge of magic might be able to to help him, but sorcerers are nearly extinct in the world. Two brothers remain, however; the last of their once-noble kind, holed up in a secluded valley, waging their own private and very personal war. Ferrian, captured by the local law enforcers, finds himself unexpectedly amongst friends sympathetic to his cause, and together they set out on an adventure-filled quest to find the last sorcerers. * * * * * This is a completed, self-published novel, over two volumes, that I am serialising for Royal Road.
