Let's Play Bard's Tale: Spell Level Two

From Elena's Journal:

The Review Board has granted us all another level of experience. Sai and I have advanced to the point where they will teach us a new spell level's worth of conjuration and magic. However, as we learned a bit too late, they charge for this service.



I don't know how exactly, but the sages knew instantaneously we didn't have enough gold. They didn't ask or check us or anything. They just... knew. I think that's a little strange, and honestly, I'm a trifle offended. Do I just look like someone who wouldn't have a thousand gold?

Regardless, we pooled our gold once again and had enough to pay for both our lessons.



One interesting thing I noticed during the lesson was the Word of Healing spell. "With the utterance of a single word, heal a party member's minor wounds."


This is a major boon to our quest, as now we won't have to constantly pay temples for healing our scrapes and scars. Bluey and Darkmoon have been sharing jokes about what the eponymous word of healing is. Hmph, as if I could heal wounds by saying the names of female body parts...
