Taking a breath to calm herself Emerald explained calmly as she set the stationary set on the counter. "This is a special enchanted set that i inherited from my grandmother. Every quill is one of a kind and has its own kind of use. The spells have broken and the lock on the case has burned up. Do you think you can repair that?" There was a dare in that question.
A new set at a discounted price. No, she wasn't even going to consider that option until she was 100% certain the shopkeeper couldn't repair her set. The husband remark Emerald chose to ignore entirely. T listened with no real interest in the backstory of the set. What he really wanted to do was to go back to singing LOUUUUDLY. "Is that a challenge??" Color him intrigued! T thrived on challenges for as long as he could remember. "I'll be honest I'll need to take a good look at the quills. Do you want to leave the set with me?'' T would have liked to take a look right now but it could not be possible with customers arriving at that time. "I promise I'll take good care of it.'' Tony could see the set meant something to Emerald and he would keep his promise.
