But what could Salem say, the old man liked the Magic Council Rune Knights, and thus this lead to Salem managing to get himself yet another quest from Old Man Farmer Jim, and that was completely fine by him as he was in dire need of the jewels and he was sure the task would be just as simple as the last one he had completed. Still moving down the streets Salem could only think about the magic lacramine that he had managed to find stuck in Old Man Farmer jims land on the last time he did a Quest for the man. The lacramine having some spell on it that caused it to seem as though the vines and roots and what not of the plants all on farmer jims land where alive causing them to try and drag prey into their reaches. Salem only hoping that he did manage to get the problem fixed for Old Man Farmer Jim before anyone actually managed to get dragged in. Since Salem didn’t manage to ever actually ask Old Man Farmer Jim was any one harmed by the vines.
Though Salem could just not seem to put his mind to it, as to why that lacramine would have been on the farmers land like that, unless someone planted in hopes of getting at the farmer in so way. Salem only hoping that this was one of his crazy over reactions and that it was just some misshaping, as he would hate for anyone to really be after Old Man Farmer Jim. Especially since from what Salem could see, the old man was one who just cared about his farming and friends. Though he was sure that Old Man Farmer Jim had a work ethic that most could not match, seeing the way the old man far out his prime still managed to run and keep his farm under complete control most times you could say. But then again every good farmer ran into a problem every now and then that was just the way of farming. When it’s good it’s good, but when it’s bad it’s bad.
