Seth entered the workshop where the completed leathers had been laid out on the workbench for his final approval. Per request, he was alone in the small room, and, as an extra precaution, he shut and locked the door behind him as he entered.
Looking down, he examined the finely worked curves and seams of the armor, imagining it accenting Marlia's feminine form. Yes, this would definitely be worth the investment...charms or no charms.
He reached down and withdrew the small, patterned rings of metallic foil from the pouch at his waste. Sitting at the bench, he made fine incisions in the leather at the appropriate places, inserting each of the featherweight charms in it's proper spot. There were nine in all, symbolizing the four winds and the five elements, and each engraved with its respective symbol and the spell to block observation using each type of power, as well as a cloaking charm to use each power to shield him when he was nearby. However, this would only work when he was in his non-corporeal form. No matter. He didn't plan to have Hahkmet anywhere near Hathor's temple anyway, so it would make no difference in the end.
Finished inserting the charms, he fused each incision closed with a flow of power from his ptah, eliminating just the amount of material the charm would displace, in its exact shape, before melding the leather around it back into a solid piece, being sure that there were no noticeable ridges or bumps where the charms were hidden. Satisfied, he slung the leathers over his arm and emerged into the hall, and began walking toward the entrance way. Malia, and Hathor, would be here any minute. He did not want to keep them waiting!

The word had spread just as quickly as Marlia had thought; although no one came near them. Marlia stayed to Nefret's left at all times, with her other guards, no one would be able to touch Nefret. Nefret had wanted to see things downtown anyway, so she thought this would be a good time. Nefret and her guards went off to look at jewels, and boys while Marlia went off towards the place that had been arranged between herself and the Head Trader.
She went to the entrance and saw him waiting for her. She was to far away to see his expression or anything else. In fact, it was hard for her to walk anywhere; people were everywhere. Her hand drifted closer to her sword than it had already been as she got closer to a group of rough-looking men. She had seen their type before. Marlia sighed a little, they were going to be trouble for her.
Just as she had thought, the obvious leader of the group looked at her and made a signal with his hand to his comrades. Yup, trouble. This would be fun.
Marlia put on her best seductive smile she had, which was rather effective, and eyed all of the men as if she was seizing them up. The leader came towards her, "that sword looks awfully heavy. How about letting me take it off of your hands."
His hands started going towards her in a possessive way. Marlia let him get almost all the way to touching her before stepping aside.
"I am quite capable of handling this sword. Now if you will excuse me, I have somewhere to be." She said, trying to avoid trouble.
The leader pulled out a knife and laughed. "You won't be going anywhere I think." He said.
A half-hearted laugh escaped her lips as she drew her sword and took a lazy defense. She figured she would have fun with this guy and make him think he was doing good before her died.

Touch me and learn pain; touch Nefret and die, slowly. |
