Author's Note : Another update so soon? I am in a determined mood today. You may get another update tomorrow. Depends on how long it takes the type up the next chapter. With my tablet cracked in two places, I can only write on my phone, but I will do my best. Chapter 4 everybody.

Chapter 4 - The people of Brightwall, Gnomes and more Chickens.

"Walter is waiting for you at the local tavern, it seems to be his new favourite place. " Jasper said

"Okay." I muttered, I was sitting on a rock whilst one of Saker's men tended to be my wounds.

"There, you'll be fine now." He smiled

"Thanks, I will visit sometime in the future." I stood up, and began to head back to Brightwall.

Once in Brightwall, I headed to the tavern. I received strange looks from people, then again I was covered in scrapes and bumps, not to mention all the bandages I had acquired. I climbed up the side stairs into the upper part of the tavern, Walter sat with Samuel.

"Ah, there you are. We were just talking about you!" Walter smiled. I rolled my eyes, the noble Sir Walter Beck. Drunk!

"Indeed." Samuel nodded, I sat down at the table.

"We were discussing how you could get food to the dwellers." Walter told me.

"That's great!" I smiled

"Yes, well, the king's men take most of our supplies. So, we end up with shortages more than we would like."

"But." Walter looked at Samuel

"But, maybe if you helped out around the town. They will become generous, and when people are generous, they are also charitable. " Samuel said

"So, there you have it. Gain support of the town." Walter smiled.

"Right, I'll leave you men to your drinks." I rose from my seat and left them alone.

"Madam, I have something to show you." Jasper said, I returned to the sanctuary.

"Yes Jasper?" I asked

"The book of heroes sayd the msp also shows you where there are possible quests." Jasper told me

"Great, that will help a lot Jasper, thanks." I smiled. I looked at Brightwall, there were 4 possible quests. There was a chicken one, I picked it, I was teleported outside a farm. I saw a man.

"H-Hello. Can I help you with something?" I went over and asked.

"Yes, my chickens are running riot. Can you bring them back here. " the man asked, hopefully.

"Sure." I went to leave

"Wait, chickens are clever creatures, they won't fall for the 'come here chicky-chicky'. Here, wear this." the man gave me a chicky costume. I got into it. "Please bring them back." and so off I went.

"Chicky!" I giggled, running around after a rogue chicken in the castle grounds. I finally caught it, I sat down to pat it.

"Edelia?" Aaron came up behind me. We looked alike, but I was slightly taller and I gave off an unearthly glow from my skin. The radiance of a hero as my father called it.

"Aaron, isn't it cute?" I smiled

"Edelia, you find everything cute." Logan joined us. I let the chicken go, it ran ofc. I watched it go sadly.

"You two are not cute." I told them. Logan groaned and slapped his forhead.

"Ah, my dear heroes." Mother came out and hugged my brothers, ignoring me. I looked away, pulling a face.

"What a face, little Fire." A voice said, I gasped clambering to my feet. My father stood at the castle gates nearby.

"Father! " I ran and jumped into his arms." I missed you. " My Father had gone off on a Quest a few weeks ago.

"And I, you." father smiled, he had forgotten Logan and Aaron were there. "So, do you want the gift I got you?"

"Yes!" I brightened up, he put me down, and took something out of his shoulder bag.

"Here." Father showed me a wolf like dog. It was only a puppy. "He'll stay by your side. "

"Thank you Father." I patted the little pup.

"He is half wolf, so he will protect you as well as being a friend." Father put the pup in my arms.

"Father, did you get me and Aaron something?" Logan asked hopefully.

"Logan , you and your brother get plenty of gifts from your mother." Father said "Your sister is always left out."

"Are you claiming that I don't care about my only daughter? " Mother gasped

"Yes, and all of the staff agrees. "Father said, a protective flame lit up in his eyes.

"Daddy..." I said in a very childish way as i took his hand. He looked at me, surprised, but happy at the less formal title. "Can you help me make a bed for Snow Paw? " I asked, naming my new friend.

"Of course." He nodded, I saw a strange look in Aaron's eyes as we walked away...

Snow whined, I looked at him. 9 chickens were running around my legs.

"Sorry Snow." I patted his head, we headed back to the farmer, who locked them away. The farmer's wife came in and began arguing that the chicken's should run free. They had a mini argument, I took off the chicken outfit then they asked me for my opinion on what they should do.

"Let them run free." I said

"Fine." The farmer sighed

"I'm sure we can make this work." His wife agreed, I smiled and teleported to the Sanctuary. I picked another quest., it was about some sort of missing play. I returned to Brightwall and headed to the Academy. I agreed to help thrm before entering the academy. I headed towards a door, but it closed.

"Turn back mortal one. A voice said, I choose to ignore it and opened the door. I continued to the next door, which also closed." You won't get my missing play! "

"Whatever." I growled and pushed open the door, I saw a strange looking book.'Must be it. ' I thought. I went over and picked it up, a face popped out. It was Morley a famous play write!

"You just couldn't keep away, could you?" The face said angrily, I was pulled into the book.

"Owww..." I rubbed my head. Morley was going on about 'what was he thinking' and Comedy and tragedy. ' before vanishing, Bloody ghosts! I got to my feet.

"It seems you have been trapped here by..." A man began to say

"I know who he is." I sighed "But how do I get out?"

"I believe we must act out this scene from one of Morley's plays." The man said. I realised he was the famous detective, Ramson Locke.

"Okay. So, what Play is this?" I saw a dress on stage.

"I believe it is one of Morley's romantic plays." Locke said "And that must be your costume."

"My costume?" I looked at him

"Acting is not one of my strong points.." Locke explained, I rolled my eyes. I changed into the dress. I sighed, a ghost appeared, he began talking as I began sorting out the folds of my dress.

"Right, you have to declare you love for him." Locke called to me.

"What?" I gasped, Locke gave me a funny look, I grumbled under my breath. "Fine." I got onto my knees. "My heart is yours, my love." I smiled, holding back my bitterness.

"Let the heave, and the seas, roads and the eels sing the song of my heart, as she doth love me and all is well." The ghosts said, and vanished.

"what a wonderful rendition. " Locke smiled "Truly, I applaud you."

"Um, I see you are gifted with Literary cunning, but can you really comprehend the depth of my work? We shall see." Morley said

Locke and I found ourselves in a castle set.

"Oh, I know this! Blood bath at the royal court!" I smiled, I went over to the costume. "One of my favourites, I guess I must play the part of the fool." I put it on, a ghost appeared and began talking. I ignored him, trying to remember what happened when I first sure the play. When he stopped, I began to tickle him. When I finally let the ghost go, he laughed.

"Oh, stop. It's too funny!" He chuckled. "I think I'm in the right mood now to meet with those foreign delegates. I believe I'll only behead half of them, yes..." Then vanished.

"I have never seen a more convincing fool. There is hope for us yet." Locke smiled as I took off the costume.

"You handle my royal drama's as well as you do my romances. But will your versatility settle to the more subtle dominances of theatre, I wonder." Morley questioned

We found ourselves in a burning forest.

"Oh, dear." I muttered

"Titus the mutilator, part 2" Locke said, I nodded grimly. When we went o see this, my father had to take me out of the theatre because I began to cry, I never liked this play. I got into his costume, I had to die. More ghosts appeared and began to beat me, when I had procured a large number of cuts and bruises, I dropped. Not moving, hardly breathing.

"Well done. I honestly thought you had passed on." Locke congratulated me as I got up, I rubbed my head. I had hit it as I had fallen, Never doing that again.I heard Morley talking, he gave me a book before vanishing. I read the title 'The ham sandwich.'

"Well done, you found our aged investigator." Lambert smiled

"Here, Morley's missing play." I gave them the play. They read through it and soon the people of Brightwall had gathered to watched it. Not really interested in finding out the result of tragedy and comedy, I went off.

I heard a mumbling voice, I followed it until I saw a man, He looked like a gnome and was surrounded by about 50 gnomes.

"Oh...hello. Can you receive something from Mistpeak? I was expecting a parcel, but it is yet to arrive. Can you look for it please?" The man asked

"Oh...sure...why not?" I smiled. I headed to Mistpeak. I saw an over turned carriage. I had to fight a few mercenaries, but I found the gift and returned it to the Gnome man. I quickly left the crazy man, he was so weird.

"Samuel has the food for the dwellers, he is waiting at the gates of Brightwall." Jasper said, I nodded and began to head towards the gates of Brightwall.

"Esteemed citizens of Brightwall, too long have our dweller neighbours suffered in , we extend a helping hand by sending food too them." Samuel addressed the crowd of overly excited people of Brightwall. "And it is all because of one woman, the only daughter of the old hero king." Everyone cheered, I blushed as I stood next to Samuel. "We shall know you, from this day forth, as the hero of Brightwall."

"The hero of Brightwall." I repeated, I smiled. My very own title. I have my own hero title, father.

"We pledge ourselves to you in hope you will pledge to rebuild Brightwall and reopen the Academy that your father founded." Samuel said, turning to me.

"I Promise." I shook his hand

"Good, very good. We hope you will return, not just as our hero. But as our Queen!" Samuel smiled, the crowd cheered more. I raised my hand to the sky. The crowd threw their hats into the air. Logan would have thrown a fit if he saw me now.

After the Volunteers left to take supplies to the dwellers. I headed to the sanctuary and teleported to the dwellers camp. I took oputn the music box and went to find Sabine.

"Ah, our glorious hero returns bring good tidings." Sabine smiled as I approached, the dwellers were cheering "And supper." He added with a chuckle.

"Here, the treasure from the chamber beneath Brightwall." I gave him the box.

"It doesn't...open...how..?" Sabine tried to open it. "Well, I never thought you would get it, to tell you the truth. Boulder." Sabine passed the music box to Boulder, who sat down to play with Snow.

"We have one last thing to ask of you, once Logan is overthrown, return the mountains to us so we are free to dwell again."

"I promise." I nodded

"Then lets be carried to the castle on the fiery clouds of war!" Sabine yelled

"Not yet, it is still us against an army." Walter said "We still need to recruit more people."

"I thought you will come over all logical and sensible." Sabine sighed. "Well, we are free to hunt, so we will just keep eating and drinking until you're good and ready." Sabine smiled

"Right, Edelia meet me at the monorail station." Walter headed out of the camp. I returned to the Sanctuary. I planned on completing a few more quests, before heading to the station. I didn't like dark places, so I didn't mind trying to delay meeting Walter. I had seen blue prints for the monorail. It was small, and small places were easy places to be stabbed in the back. I pushed my worries aside and decided to concentrate on the quests.
