Alcharad was stroking his beard as he was looking through his libary
"where that blasted book" he said out loud, pushing his hands amongst some books on a shelf, suddenly a big heavy one fell down flat on his face
"ahhh blast it all, cant my good for nothing apprentice put books neatly in the right places" he held the book and looked at it "haha what luck, its the one ime looking for...now"
Natalia was in the kitchen cooking their supper for the night, with a few spells she kept the pot turning and the fire glowing, cooking up Alcharads favorite meal, the pewter pot turned as the fires licked the bottom, she was reading through the cookery book trying to find something else she could make for pudding than his usual apples and custard, she had grown tired of making the same old meals and so looked for something diffrent
Alcharad hurried with his book into his study, an array of potions, glass vials and tubes containing diffrent ingrediants were arrayed neatly on shelves
"ahh here we are" he put the book down on a desk "now....the dragons egg" he opened a silver chest and inside a tiny egg, took it out gentry and put it next to the book on the table
Natalia knew what her husband was up to again, trying to bring his old dragons egg to hatch "you better not make the mess you made last time" she called, "ofcourse not my dear, that was before i bought this book", he went red, remembering the explosion hed caused "yes, and ive heard that one too many times as well, youve got a new book which should help you to do it, just so long as you dont make a mess" she said while rolling her eyes and sighing "and dinner is ready soon, so put your books away and come have dinner, its almost done".
Alcharad made a tired noise and walked into the kitchen, laid out on the table was his favorite dinner, roast chicken and potatoes in a rich gravey, he was a wizard of habit, every night he like his chicken and potatoes, and after apples and custard "ooh, smells delicious" he said as he eagerly settled at the table, "blasted thing" he moaned as his beard sloped in the gravy "you know id cut this thing off if it wasnt Wizard tradition" he took his beard off his plate and put it on his robes, Natalia smiled and looked up and frowned "i told you a thousand times, dont dirty up your robes, you know i just washed them this morning and now youve dirtied them already", he fidgeted a bit and went a little purple before quietly saying "sorry dear, but this thing is such a pest", he gave a little chuckle as she rolled her eyes as she often did and they both tucked into the meal she had prepared for them
