Oh No... Summons in the Shop!

The shadow creaure slid out of the metal horse's shadow, and stood up. She silently walked over the floor and started studying some of the books, smirking when she read some of the things that wee written down.

She pulled the bottle out of her throat and looked at it. It was a piece of art in it's own right. It was made from black and deep purple glass, with intricate black metal designs swirling over it, making the outline of shapes. In daylight, it was a twisted thing that looked slighly menacing. At night, it looked beautiful and harmles.

She walked back over to the counter, patently waiting until she was able to ask the women "Karen" if she knew what the bottle was.

Hagane nodded- his forger had been a merchant, and he was quite familiar with it.

"I've worked a till quite a few times in my life. As for Ghost..." He tapped a small pipe that was jutting out of the side of his neck. "She doesn't talk much; she's spirit that's bound to my body by means of a seal. She rarely ever appears outside, due to the fact that she's what runs me."

"Runs you? How... Never mind"

Karen sighed deeply, obviously overflowing with questions. But right now she had to run her shop, and Hagane seemed eager and qualified enough. She'd bombard him with questions after they shut.

"Well, then, Hagane. Welcome to the team of two"

Karen grinned, briefly lifting her head again.

"I think we've got someone here who wants our attention, could you help her out?"

Karen said, indicating the shadow creature that was standing near them expectantly. Her picture was almost finished now as well, just one more detail and... done.

The human briefly took a moment to admire her handiwork, the double circle of runes around had, like she'd said, made it look alive. As she put it down and started on a new one, the paper shimmered...

A little ways away from the shop, an identical double circle of runes burned into the ground. The outer circle turned one way while the inner turned the other, looking as though they were opening a gate in the ground.

This turned out to be more than an illusion though, as a gaping hole appeared in the middle. It widened as a small creature rose out of the ground.

It was the creature in Karens drawing.

It was a Bakru.

And yet again Karen had no idea what it was that she'd just done.
