As color fills his vision, he realizes he's walking into the town square of Tir Chonaill.
"I actually made it. I'm in Tir!" He gleefully states as he spends a moment soaking it in.
He takes a deep breath in, and calmly breaths out.
"I can't feel mana... Even with the moons overhead..." He mumbles to himself.
"If you want power, I can lead you to it," a mysterious cloaked figure informs.
"One of the prophets. Any chance you're taking orders from Pennar? No, I suppose it's from the Black Wizard."
"So, you've heard of our great leaders?" The Prophet says, with a cringe of shock.
"Something like that. Any chance you know where Pennar is?"
"Unfortunately I do not. However I-"
"Unfortunately that's all I needed to know. Have a nice day,"
"You will regret not giving everything to HIM!" The Prophet yells as Warwick walks into the bank.
"I'm sorry, we're closing up for the night." The banker informs.
"That's fine. I was just hoping to make an account and drop something off real quick."
"I can do that. What is the name for the account?"
"Warwick Mayham Crone, Pin: 3327"
"Okay, it's all set up for you. What would you like to deposit?"
"This," Warwick says as he pulls out the lamp.
"Okay, that will be a depositing fee of 13,500 gold."
Warwick gulps. "Um... Is it okay if I instead pay it when I need to withdraw it?"
"That can be arranged. How do I know that you aren't just going to drop it off and never return?"
"I'll be coming back often, and will be around town a lot. There won't be a month that I don't visit you until it's paid off."
"And what happens if there is?"
"If there is, I'm sure you could sell it for a lot more than the fee."
"That sounds like a deal,"
The two shake hands, as Warwick hands her the lamp, and precedes to walk out.
He walks around to the other side of the bank, then returns to Earth in a flash.
"AHH! You startled me!" His roommate says as Warwick shows up.
"Sorry, I got lost in thought,"
"You shouldn't be hiding in the corner like that! It's too hard for people to know where you are!"
"That was the point," Warwick says, playing it cool and rolling his eyes.
His roommate sighs, as they both head off to their next class.
