Mica shook her head as he heard the merchant's question.
"No Spirits. The disturbances were caused by a rogue Arcanist. He was injured and used spells and talismans to keep people away while he recovered. He's not a threat to the district anymore."
The merchant blinked, then exhaled heavily. "So it wasn't Spirits… thank the heavens. I don't care what he was, as long as my customers stop running away. But where is he?"
Zhang Wei handed him the mission scroll, signed with their seal. "We sent him away… The Academy will handle the rest. You can tell your neighbors the matter is resolved. Just mark here that we completed the mission… Of course, we will be around for the next two days, so in case another problem comes up, we'll be here to settle it right away."
The merchant was delighted when the three students assured him they would remain in the district for two more days to observe the situation.
