She continued to be mesmerised by the sexy bitch in the mirror when she heard the car door open. “I guess it went well,” Daisy said.
She watched as Cassidy entered her car. Her friend had reverted back to old self. Her skin was neither red nor gold but a light tan with a nice selection of natural blemishes and flaws. Cassidy had also lost a cup-size and the handful of inches that the blessing had given her. But there were far subtler changes, the more energy that she put in each of her strides, the way that her eyes tracked the shadows, and a hundred other tiny details that had vanished along with her powerful muscles. While still pretty, she had become a ghost of what she had once been.
Cassidy tilted her head back into the seat. While she would not cry over the loss of three losers, who hadn't bothered to elevate themselves out of being utter geeks, the guilt of having to sell a kid like that had struck her more than she thought it would.
“Let's just go,” she said and pulled out her phone.
Quest completed. Fall from grace and the rise of heroes.
You have successfully convinced four people to take up the mantle of being a dungeon's minions. While many would tear heaven itself apart for a taste of your power, you know that the price was too great and have given it to those you have deemed as worthy.
Reward. Loss of warrior, wizard, rogue, and priest professions. Loss of the blessing of the House of Heroes. 50 upgrade points. New ability, Talent scout.
Talent scout. Activating this ability allows you to know a person's place in the world. People search for years trying to find themselves but you just know.
Cassidy put down her phone and said nothing.

Written By Troy Neenan.
Tormented with endless dreams of his own death the disfigured Mocrey O'Connell spends every moment of his life in service to his demanding family, but are these just the harmless doings of a troubled mind or is there something else going on inside the young Wood Elf that he himself is unaware of?
As for Mocrey himself, all the young farmer and part time reluctant inventor wants is to get the courage to ask the cute little demon waitress for a date and avoid making his disturbed mother further disappointed in him.
Thinking that his birthday is the perfect time to change his meek behavior, Mocrey promises himself to change. However, he soon gets more than he asks for, when Mocrey's darker side begins to claw its way to the surface and decides that what the kingdom needs is to start the apocalypse.
