His big sigh echoed through the desolate hallway. How could he have known that she was the plaything of his superior? Still, he just had some fun with a slave, why did they have to condemn him to guard duty in this place?
This was the worst. Standing all day at the entrance to the prison block and feeling bored beyond belief. This wa...

All the items he was making were not just the improvements needed for him to feel safe once he started his operation. They were all experiments at the same time. The next one would be a rather large step in experimenting.
The next involved a very precious item he couldn’t really afford to ruin but he didn’t have the time for long ...

Puffles asked worriedly. Seth was putting so much effort into readying himself but if he couldn’t leave the cell without being noticed.
“Oh, that? I have an idea for that. It will be a surprise.”
After getting a good rest, Seth got up and returned to his work. He w...

Seth was dismayed. His dream of 100% resistance to disease and poison was gone! He should have guessed it as it mentioned a limit. Charon's Physique.
He had just infused 5 souls when resistance to disease stopped growing but there was hope, as another effect appeared. Resistance to decay. Seth kept infusing up to ten souls when all values ...

These three had been a no-brainer as their effects were understandable from the short description in the enchantment catalog. They also aligned with his goal to reach the usage requirement of the Helm of Hades.
The others were often too vague or did not necessarily seem fit to be used on armor.
As he kept looking through them one by ...

Nobody woke him up this time. He woke up because he had slept enough. It was around noon and another bowl of slob was already waiting at the hatch of the door.
He remembered finishing the important helmet and brought it out to appraise it. He rotated the dark helmet in his hands. It felt light but had a certain gravity to it.
