Storm Montre
I am a noble wolf. I am not highly educated however I am physical capable to keep my family safe. My wife and kids are scared of the king who controls the land but I believe everything happens for a reason. The good and innocence will conquer and overrule the tyrant soon. My family and I own a weapons store and I am proud to say we are one of the best. My kids will go into the forest to look for materials while my wife designs the battle armour and weapons while I create the final product. We have ran this business for years. This is how we make enough sP to feed our children and keep a roof under our head. It is tough and hard work. As the man of the household I will do whatever it takes to protect my family. I am a man of his word and I intend to teach my sons that life lesson.
One dreadful night, two giant Mortiking came to our little home and dragged me into the castle where King Rreign has summoned me. The room was empty and quiet for several minutes while the King just starred me down while I had feared for the worst, him making me his peasant servant in his castle and forcing me to leave my family. Shockingly the King has cleared his throat and spoke, "Jaebeom, you are. I have heard gossip around my castle saying that your little weapons store has some good quality products." I looked up, confused at his words and then spoke, "My King? Did you summon me at this night to ask me to make you some amour?" The King laughed and said, "Why yes. What other reason would I get my two most loyal servants come and bring you to me." I let out a big sigh of relief and answered, "What would you like me to make, my King?" The King listed out several well fit armour and a dozen weapons. The King knew it was a big order so he has already written down and given the list to me with the date where he wants it done. After the talk with the King, the two Mortiking brought me back home and I was back with my family. My wife and kids were so worried but I told them everything and they were as confused and surprised as I was. "So the King has made an order to buy from our little weapons store? And he gets those two scary, big Mortiking to bring you to the castle in the middle of the night? Just to talk about business? That's crazy talk, I say!" my wife said. I shrugged my shoulders. After the incident my wife and I tucked our kids in bed and head to bed ourselves.
The very next day, my family and I got up extra early. We had breakfast and afterwards the kids started going out to get materials needed for the King's order while my wife starts designs and moulding the armours and weapons. The other orders we got was pushed back due to the fast demand from the King. I made sure the quality of all the weapons and armours were the top notch by testing out each any every product before we put them in the finish pile. Working near the extreme heat of the fire, it was no surprise that I'll need to hydrate every couple minutes and taking a 5 minute break from the smoke or I am sure I will pass out from the chemicals. We worked the entire day but managed to make 20 swords, 10 battle axes, 5 pair of amour and 5 helmets. While we still have 80 swords to go, 40 battle axes to go, 15 pair of amour and 15 helmets more to make and the deadline is in one week. The pressure of finishing it is really putting a toll on me because the King never said what he'll do to me if I cannot manage his order in time.. That worries me the most.
One Week Later
"We did it family. We actually pulled this through! Good job everyone!" I cheered as we finally finish packing up the order in several big boxes. The kids cheered and ran around the room with their hands in the air while my wife and I chuckled at our adorably kids being kids. I was extremely joyous that we finished the King's order on time because I do not want to know what happens if we could not finish by the deadline. The King's servants will be coming later tonight to pick up the order therefore we took an hour break before starting on our other orders for our loyal customers. Our loyal customers did not complain nor did they go somewhere else to order which we are eternally grateful to them. My wife prepared dinner while I start to work on the orders and once I am done for the day we finally had our family dinner together. It was indeed a pleasant day.
Later that night, the King's servants came with two carriages and loaded up the back with the boxes. I was told to come with them to see the King. The servants unload from the carriages and I was brought to see the King. He was happy with the products and smiled. The King pointed to the bag of gold one of his servants was holding and then pointed at me so the servant will give me the payment. I humbly took the bag of gold and thanked the King for him ordering from my little store. Then his servant took me back home and that's when I opened up the bag of gold. It was a bit lower than the actual cost but I am unable to do anything about it since he is the King. "Ugh, that big headed dingdong doesn't even know what great quality our product is and he assumed the cost of that big order he gave to us is only worth 895 sP? He has so much gold and he only gives this much for armour and weapons to his army?! This is outrageous!" my wife complained after counting the bag of gold. I was definitely not surprised since he is devious and manipulative. "A tyrant is a tyrant." I sighed and just put the gold in our safety deposit. "Off to bed kids." my wife said and we had our sweet moment in the quiet night.
"Goodnight my beautiful wife." I said while wrapping my arms around her and kissed her forehead.
