The first time Heracles, Gwen and Amelinda met Ham, the scepter maker

Heracles, Gwen and Amelinda had come to the first floor. They was staying outsider a closed wooden door. It made them a little hesitant as they stood there. Then Heracles walked ahead, knocked on the door.
“Come in.” a tired voice spread out.
Heracles pulled the door. He, Gwen and Amelinda walked in. There was a rather dark room lit by some oil lamps spread out gentle blue light. The room was narrow, made of wooden and filled full by a lot of stuff and most of them were scepters.
“What do you want?” said a man sitting on an elbow chair standing between scepters by the walkway along the room. He even didn’t look at Heracles, Gwen and Amelinda as they walked in. His head bent down, chin on his hand. He seemed to be sleeping.
“We are new. We need to help.” squealed Amelinda, standing right after Heracles.
The man raised his head, parted his curly black long hair aside his face showed out his sleepy eyes with big shadows below, his stubby short beard around his mouth and jaw.
“I am a Ham, a scepter maker.” said the man. He stood up, flatted his oversize long black jacket. “You all come here to buy scepter right? What are your names? Lady first.”
“I’m Amelinda and they are Gwen and Heracles.” said Amelinda.
“Amelinda, Gwen, Heracles you are all new?” said Ham gently.
“Yeah, we are.” they said.
“I will try to find the most suitable scepters for you.” said Ham. He grabbed a nearby scepter having a crystal ball on the top, suspending in crystal ball was a five-color feather radiating very gentle blue light.
“Amelinda, a young cleaver girl, I think you don’t need to have much power from your scepter. What you need is stable and gentle source of power which you can control well. Do you know the peacock which is raised by goddess Hera. Of course, we can never have the chance to touch on it. This is one of its offspring’s two remaining feathers. Take it and feel it. If it accepts you, it will give you a signal.” said Ham giving Amelinda the scepter, “Its handle was made of beech core which made it lighter and more stable as you use it.”
“So what do I must do now.” said Amelinda confusedly.
“Just feel it, try to think it’s a part of your body.
Amelinda kept holding the scepter in her hand, closed her eyes, tried to feel.
“Focus.” said Ham.

Chapter 3: The owl of wisdom (part 2)

“A proud boy.” said the owl of wisdom, “Let me see you.” It flew slowly around Hank, “Your god Ares seem to favor you. A vulture symbol under was your ear and a spear symbol was on your arm. You are wise boy who know to come after fight and get the spoils. However, you are also great in combat if you need to do it. You are a good boy will sever your god well in future.” said the owl of wisdom. “Please go to the table closest to your left. It’s the place for Aresians.” Hank made his way to his family where many people had stayed there. “Bravo!”, “Great boy!” said others there. They shook Hank’s hand, greeted with high five. The place turned crowded in minutes and made Heracles not happy much.  Next after Hank was Morela who was also sat on the same boat with Heracles. Morela came from Delphi the city was protected by god Apollo, the sun god. Of course, she was blessed by her god, a symbol of the sun appeared brilliantly at the middle of her head in golden light. The owl of wisdom ...

Space rings

Space rings are the things which are mentioned in Heracles first book: Heracles and the lion coming feom Nemea - Hippocoon land . They are things Heracles and his friend, Gwen and Amelinda got when they came to the first floor of the All-For-You shop where they met Ham the scepter maker. Ham are very kind to give each of them a space ring which according him is done some space spells on and so therefore it can help the person who own to create a small area in somewhere on the world. The created areas is connected with the world of owner by that ring itself. It is consider as though a space door that the owner can store their stuff inside the space ring by the way moving the image of the stuff they want to store to the area of the space ring which will appear in their mind whenever they want.
