Maybe promise to make what she wants for dinner tonight as an apology.>Ask Sigrid about why she took you on as apprentice.“I’m sorry about that.” You bow your head to the rogue as well. You really ought to make a conscious effort to not treat gnomes so cruel. They’re very fragile. “You see, there was this situation with someone else at the chapel, another student from the conservatory, and–well, I suppose it doesn’t matter. Maybe I could cook a special dinner for you tonight..? Your choice?“
“That’s a start, but some dinner isn’t going to cut it, nearly leaving me to the goblins like that..” The gnome places a hand on her chin. “Hmmm.. how about a favor? Let me ask any request of you?”
“U-uh.. sure. Okay..?” You respond in an effort to appease the rogue. You can’t say you much like the malicious glint in her eye.
“That aside, my lady.. I meant to ask about earlier.” You turn to the witch, whose gaze is drawn to the porthole out to the sea. “I didn’t mean to eavesdrop–actually, maybe I did just a little–but I caught wind of you talking to the witch about apprenticing for you. You turnt her offer down again, so.. I was just curious as to why you took me in place of anyone else..?”
“You heard that, did you?” Your lady doesn’t bother to meet your eyes, so you can’t quite read the expression on her face. “I guess you have as good a right as any to know. Your mother wrote me one day to request that I tutor you in her place. I didn’t want to take on apprentices–don’t much like other people–but your mother entrusted you to me and I felt like I owed her that much. That’s all.”
Your master pauses, seemingly catching the implication of her own words, and is quick to amend it.
“I mean–not that that’s the only reason.” Sigrid stumbles over herself. “If you were a moron I’d have turned you down all the same as the rest. I took you on for your mother and because I believed you could make something half-decent for yourself. Your mother saw potential in me and I saw potential in you. It’s not worth concerning yourself over.”
>Bredbeddle wants a favor? What kind of favor?>Ask Sigrid about Leshy and your next and final ingredient.>Ask Sigrid about the House An Sprys.>Is your master being honest? Did she really take you on for you, or was it for the sake of someone else?>[Write-In.]
