Silvertree Chronicles Bk. 01 Ch. 19

She returned with the enchanter, "Here is your order, we did up an extra tier two cloak but because of the exclusive on the symbols we cannot sell it, so thank you very much."

Eldar nodded, "Thank you and to many more children in the future. I need two hundred sixty of the non-magical cloaks with the seals and forty of the heraldry sashes. I have another cloak design I NEED FIRST, The double crescent moons, same silver and gray but I want the sword piercing between the two moons. The sword is moving between the two moons so the shadowing should reflect like the moons and use black on those parts that are in darkness.

She nodded, "Like this? When the sword is like a third moon between them."

He smiled, "Yes, and on forest green cloaks. I need two of them. I want those on tier one protection cloaks, do you have them?"

She nodded, "How many can you have by the day after tomorrow. No rush, I just need to know."

She thought hard, "I can have 60 cloaks and 20 of the sashes done by close of business tomorrow with your 2 with the new design."

He smiled, "You have my account number. Can I get you to deliver those to the market?"

She nodded, "By end of that day tomorrow."

He told her, "Look for Charlemagne or Annette there."

They left the shop and got back on the horses, "T'suras Biana. Now back to the market to assemble the guys."

He pulled up beside their first wagon. "T'suras Veta."

They were away from the crowd. He looked for the first one he wanted to give out and waited for them to get gathered around. He stuck the extra cloaks into the bag for now, "The wives and I went out and did a little shopping yesterday. Keyno, please come here."

He hung the sash in front of her showing the back first.

"Yours is the only one like this, I got cloaks for everyone but with your style of riding or shooting I did not want you to break your neck. This gives you the same level of protection as a cloak of protection; and has ties in the front and back so it will not fly down into your face and it leaves your arms free."

Keyno gave him a hug, "Thank you for thinking of that."

He smiled, "Now go try it out on your horse and make sure it does not create any issues."

She nodded and ran off and he handed out the others until he got to Annette's. He smiled at her as he put it over her shoulders, "She is not a Gray Blade so hers has an ink and quill symbol to denote she is an Administrator for the town."

He pulled Charlemagne and his out and put hers on first. He took the Silvertree pin off of his cloak. He attached it to the new one and donned the new regalia. "What do you think?"

Keyno came riding by upside down and flips upright. She rode over, "Works great! We know what to get other archers too!"

He nodded. "All of these are enchanted and the Gray Blade Symbol with the double crescents is exclusive. You should note the sword is modeled after mine and has the double crescent symbol on the hilt."

Hunter looks at him, "How did you afford all of this?"

Eldar smiled, "When I went to the bank, I found out I had a second account that my father set up when I was born. Depositing some money every year. Apparently, Grand Master Yetto was not the only one betting on me while I was in the Academy. I took a fraction of that money and outfitted my officers."

He got a round of applause. "That is not the only good news. I pulled the plans for the tavern, grain mill, leather and saddles, blacksmith, and bow and fletcher shop. I had the first planning guy hanging from the wall at one point and shitting himself the next. He took the rest of the day off. The lady who came in was much more helpful and even gave us this monster of an inn plan for free.

The entire fourth floor will have to be laid out differently. For rooms, nursery, a playroom for when the kids have company from all the others who have kids coming. We will look at getting someone who can watch the children. While people are overseeing the barracks, training others, or grabbing the occasional patrol.

It houses seventy rooms on top of that. Once it is built, we will have a roof over everyone's head until the other houses are built. I forgot to mention that I got floor plans for three- and five-bedroom homes. All my officers with families will have a five-bedroom. There will be more of those for people with large families. Fireball and Hunter time to get a wife or two."

That got a few laughs. "All business plans have a place to live above the shop except for the saw-mill and grain-mill. Doc identified another set of twins today. What Doc did not know was I told the couple exactly what they needed to do to achieve pregnancy; down to the positions they needed to use. Doc I got another check coming up here with Gatrius Moon Blade. They will have twins as well.

I went into full-blown prediction mode last night and it was like drinking from the bottom of the waterfall but it saved 5 elven lives and a few hundred human lives. It has not completely gone away but it is down to a trickle now in comparison. Speaking of which they will be here in just a minute. I have never met the lady but I described her, the furniture, and how to take her from behind over the back of her sofa to achieve pregnancy."

The group laughed at him. Just a few seconds later he walked around the corner. He spotted Eldar's horse. Eldar walked up to him, "Let us talk while Doc checks her over."

He grabbed Moon Blade by the arm, "Did you get it, and do you have it with you?"

He pulled it from under his cloak and handed it over to him. He opened his bag and slid it in. It is in the scabbard which fitted perfectly. "Everything happened as I predicted?"

He nodded, "He tried to fight but did not stand a chance with the three of us."

He took him back over to his lady who smiled. Eldar smiled at her, "What is the good word? I know she works or owns a dress shop but Gatrius has not given me a name."

She smacked Gatrius playfully, "You could have told him that! After he told you what would happen. My name is Jazzieta Silver String. We have twin boys!"

He looked at Gatrius, "Glad to see that you can follow the instructions I gave you!"

He punched Eldar in the arm. "Did you find the other stuff I told you about?"

He smiled and gave a big nod, "Last night's trip for Gatrius took down a mass murder and captured an Ancient Anvil. That will cut the crafting time of your gray blade weapons in half. Along with enough other loot that Gatrius has been paid to create all of the blades now."

He turned back to Gatrius, "Now the question everyone wants to know; when is the big date?"

He glared at Eldar, "We have not talked about that."

Eldar smiled back at him, "No time like the present to talk but let me first make a couple of introductions. Jazzieta these two love ladies are Annette and Charlemagne Silvertree, my wives."

She looked at him, "You have two wives? That is not legal."

He smiled, "It is legal, especially when the marriage was conducted by Sehanine Moonbow in front of many people including two Grand Clerics and the King and Queen. Plural marriages are coming back."

She looked at Eldar, "Seriously?"

He nodded, as did the team. He grabbed her hand, "There is a big all Academy event after mid-day meal if you want to know more. Gatrius, I need to know if you want others to know about your sword or not? Mine will be a point of discussion."

He shrugged, "Everyone assumes there is one already all it does is confirm the suspicion."

Eldar nodded, "Good, I would like you with us on stage, or at least near it."

He smiled, "Near is good enough but why?"

Eldar smiled, "Who better to explain how the swords move from one wielder to the next, my father should hopefully be there."

He raised his brows but nodded, "You can call on me to answer that question."

He looked at the sky, "We better go and get a mid-day meal early. We can get over to the Academy early. Join us please."
