FCh: A promise is a promise

From Create Your Own Story

"Sorry. I'm helping Sydney move today."

Xavier shrugs. "Okay. Have a good afternoon."


After Syndey gets off work, you meet her at her cave. You have to stoop through the doorways. Sydney has gotten busy already. She is standing in the middle of her living room, ordering around her seven chainmailed brothers, who are struggling under loads of clothes and decorative vases.

You've been looking forward to helping. You don't get many chances to use the little magic you know. This is the perfect opportunity for a levitation spell. You mutter an incantation at a chest, and it rises a few inches off the ground.

"Thanks. You're a lifesaver." says one of the dwarves, happily. He pushes the now weightless chest out of the door.

With the help of your magic, it doesn't take long to get the rest of the boxes loaded. You take it to Sydney's new place, then use the same spell to help unload the truck.

Sydney's new place is a studio cave with a high ceiling. You like it for this reason if nothing more. Boxes are strewn around the room, and Sydney's frantically looking through them for her latest Cosmo magazine.

"We're finally done. I could take a nap." says one dwarf, sleepily.

Another of Sydney's brothers disagrees. "Well, you can sleep if you want to, but we're going out for drinks. You coming Sydney? Stella?"

Sydney looks up from her search. "Sure. Just give me a moment to change. I know the perfect outfit!"

Her brothers roll their eyes.
