Servant of the Axe - Before the Week of Snows

Chapter Type: Time Skip

There was no actual snow during the Festival of Snows; but I'm getting ahead of myself.

At the night of the new moon, I reported to Manajuwejet.  "Uh, kid, you don't HAVE to supply the Celestial Heavens mana each visit.  I'm well paid for my services."

"I can't hold onto it once it's formed like this; it'll just slip away from aura and become a bit of wild magic in the world."

"Well, for future visits, then.  Minor mission from Anansi, not even a quest."

"Tell me."

"Turns out there's a big spider in one of the bunk rooms of Tiburon de Mar.  He wants you to get it safely to the land."

"Sounds simple enough; we're not expecting a storm.  Anything from Serquet?"

"Nothing for you, yet.  Turns out that Sobek setting up a shrine has Pongo and the local spirits all kinds of angry."

I sighed.  "I suppose I can see Pongo tonight."
