Harold would hold up a hand said "Not quite yet lassy, still got one last touch up to it, why don't ya give aimin' it another go fer me?" He asked, motioning to a practice dummy in the room
[If Lilly takes aim] She would feel the very groves of the musket fit perfectly to her hands and shoulder, even her cheek, not a bit of it felt out of place, as if this very musket was made just for her and her alone.

Lilly will take aim and say this aloud "mercy guide my hand"she will hit far closer to target.

Harold would smile as he took out a bit of the last metal, and shaped it into something to help, getting up to where he could see better, he would look to see where Lilly's eyes rested on the musket as he would place a little scope on the barrel, nothing that let her see farther, but it would help with her aiming. "There we go lass, now that should help out. Now then, listen, this here isn't a musket that does any real harm ta folks. This here is more or less something to put that calmin' blood into folks. Watch." He would pull the little handle back to show where to load a needle and he placed an empty needle in it, closing the latch. "This thing will fire only by yer hands, and it's also quiet as a mouse." He said, patting the musket a bit. "Also, the needles only need to be soaked a bit in the blood to fill up, so don't forget to put some needles in the containers before loading them." He said nodding. "An' with that lass, yer musket is complete."

You could see lilly brainstorm,she will say to harold"can i possibly dip the needles in healing potions. I can see alot of uses for mercy here long distance medical care some calming effect on guards,poisons potentially it has value it may not be able to kill but putting a target to sleep while being hidden has some uses."

Harold would nod and said "Ay lass, any liquid can be stored in them needles. I made ten, but ifin ya need any more just let me know, alright?"

Harold would look around a bit and then got close to Lilly's ear. "By the by lass, is the stories about little Onyx true? Last of his nest?" He asked, a bit of concern in his tone.

Lilly will nod somberly and ask harold to follow her into the kitchen so she can tell harold everything
"Yes he is my mijo me and rose have adopted him and he sees all of us as his family,grandpa seabeard,papa bloodfang mommy rose and lilly and maybe uncle harold and aunt tinya."
She will continue moving about her area with deft hands and preparation skillful knife skills.
"We are all he has ever known as a caring family,the highlanders killed his nest.they were torturing him trying to turn him into a weapon,i hardly slept the first night he was here,i sang him lullabies hoping he'd forget their torment. many a night he has woken me up because of a nightmare."
She gets to work a small bit melancholic than a sudden flair of anger. If see beard looks in her eyes hed see her eyes flair up red as she bears her fangs to speak.
"I know this if i ever have a child i would want them to be more like onyx,so kind,so brave,such a good kid,a mother couldnt ask for a better son. (X)However would he ever be injured id hunt the bastard down and drain them dry.John alone knows what I'd do to the one who might kill my baby onyx."

Harold would follow and listen to Lilly's story as he sat in a chair and nodded. "I see, I see. Tolga's dark hand has darkened our nation worse than I thought." He said. "Well lass, I won't be beatin' around the bush, we may want ta go pay me mum a visit." He said, tapping the table a bit. "Little Onyx may have a curse on him, one set close to 800 years ago passed down by blood." He said.
Harold would be leaning back saying "Not sure if ye know a woman by the name of Thissia Wave. She be me Mum, and a much better True Highlander Enchanter than I'd ever be. Well, about 800 years ago, back enough when the Federation was a much better place, there was this vicious attack from an army of dragons." He said.
Believing that Lilly might not believe him he would say "I know ya thinkin' I be talkin' out me rear lass, but I tell ya this story be true, I may not have been born yet, but any ol' timer will say the same story. Me mum was the savor of the nation then. See, I'm stuck with just simple item enchantments...me Mum however, can enchant the living, right down to the very blood, and she's one of the few that can lay down curses."
At this point Harold would sigh, the signs being obvious now. "There be Red, Blue...and yes, Black dragons all attacking at that day. Well, it be an army o' them. No one knows how such a thing could have occurred, being how most dragons are. But me Mum had to do something. So using her magic, she cursed the attacking dragons, the curse being, that any dragons with the same curse runnin' in their blood be too close, some catastrophe will befall 'em till only one is left. The plan, was to have them scatter and retreat...however me Mum wanted to make sure that they didn't come back in future times with larger numbers, so as a safety to both the True Federation, and possibly the other nations, she made the curse run in their blood. Now...I ain't sayin' that little Onyx be a decedent of one o' them dragons...but it does match up to the curse, also it wouldn't hurt to perform the ritual to remove the curse, which me Mum can do with ease."

Lilly will look to harold not with a sneer but a serious mom face" i see well i can say this harold, first we handle the wedding of blood than we handle onyx's potential curse.my boy will live for a long time but we must prepare,where is your mother is she in the domain of tolga." Lillies face will go red mid sentence ."Would orlando know a safer route."

Harold would give a smile as he said "Now that there lass, is where I have some good news. Me and me Mum are the only two Highlander Enchanters to be outside of the Federation before Tolga put down his iron fist. She lives with me Pa in the Golden Kingdom, on the otherside of this here world." He said.
