Ch. 418 Treasure-trove of ancient relics

While Elric was ensuring that the poison that his father was touched by was completely removed from him and its effects remedied, Ker took great interest in the staff that the old dwarven arcaninist almost got the chance to use against his son. Even while Artro was holding on the other side of the larger entry way room Ker felt uneasy looking at the fist size blue orb that toped the twisted wood shaft of the staff. Although it was crusted with several large sapphires, it itself only appeared to be a jewel.

"Son would you hand me that staff that belonged to that so called tower master. If it was able to survive the effects of your space oriented breath attack, it is made from things far older than even you. I would imagine that you could have been severely injured or even killed depending on what kind of spells he could cast useing it as the artifact sacrificed during a mage craft ritual."
