<Description>

A servant of the Helvetian King, turned to stone. She stands guard, waiting for a chance to exact revenge on those who would harm the King.

“Sedulus… same as the name on the chest I opened…” Jay continued to read her stats, “Wow, level 20… so much health. Some similar skills to the other soldiers, but I can’t tell what the damage is because I can’t analyse these cursed weapons… Man, she has so many skills, it must be due to her class and being level 20.”

Jay decided he definitely wouldn’t last long in a fight with her, and definitely wouldn’t try to start one.

Levelling up didn’t just make you stronger, but you also gained skills too – not to mention combat experience which couldn’t be measured. She simply outclassed him by leaps and bounds.

Jay thought his own skills paled in comparison and realised he needed more.

“Hmm, I should put more effort into finishing that chimera skill. It seems easy enough to level up anyway; I just need to summon a feeble creature using the bones of different creatures…”

“Perhaps tomorrow I’ll spend time on it… after I get Trenly employed at the shop.”

“Man, this chair is uncomfortable…” thought Jay, shifting in the cold stone chair as he waited patiently, until finally the statue spoke.

“Helvetia, our city-state, a place once glowing with life. An independent mega-city, it was almost a country in its own right. We were the jewel of the nations, the envy of many. Our manacraft was getting more advanced every day, beyond the understanding of other nations – still, the other countries left us alone. We rose high and grew powerful, and in our pride we mocked the surrounding countries, and no one could do anything against us…”

Her voice turned angry as Jay listened.
