Making Things Great Again III [Profession Job Chain/Solo]

Quest:

It has been days after his encounter with the high society woman. Tiberius is still continuing his little shop in the plaza and getting some money for day to day expenses out of it. The payment he got from the custom pendant was enough to buy more raw materials and to buy new equipments for the shop.

Tiberius just got home from selling in the plaza when his foster mother called to him. "Welcome home dear. How was your day? Could you wait for a bit? I'm still preparing dinner. Call your Uncle Julius in his workshop will you? Dinner is almost ready." His Aunt Attia is busy preparing dinner in the kitchen. "Oh I almost forgot dear. You have a letter for you from a well dressed man. You should get the same clothes as that man I know you would be very handsome if you take care of yourself from time to time." The old lady rambles on as she prepares the food.

The letter is sitting on top of the table beside the door. It is a very fancy as far as letters go. It have gold trimmings on the sides and a melted wax stamped with a seal on the flap of the envelope. Tiberius holds it close to Sara and using its small circular saw it deftly cuts the seal and flips the letter open. "Thanks Sara."

The letter seems to be an invitation for a gala hosted by the woman she met at the plaza. Inside the envelope was a map to the event and a small piece of paper that is addressed to him directly. The small paper said that he is one of the performer of the gala. He would be making an item in front of a live audience and he should also bring other items to show the gala's guests.

Tiberius' heart sank on the first part of the small paper. "Performing?" He thought as his heart beat rose higher and higher. He began sweating and having shortness of breath. Tiberius closes his eyes and tries to calm himself down. Even thinking about performing in front of an audience can cause this he don't want to think about how it would be when he's actually there on stage. "I might not be able to do it..."

The day of the gala came. Tiberius is standing in the backstage. He can clearly hear sounds of people talking behind the thick curtain in front of him. The event organizer escorted him up the dark stage and let him sit on a stool behind a table. Anything he might need is already supplied to him. Everything is dark the only light is coming from Sara standing on the table along with the other materials. *chuuuu* Sara looks at Tiberius as if it's cheering him up. But he doesn't need it really. He knows what he have to do. He can only focus on the task at hand and block out anything outside. It's for his foster family. That's all that he is thinking.

The curtain opens and a blinding light comes streaking in front of Tiberius. Everything went by in a flash, everything is a blur. Before he knows it he is done making the most intricate piece he has ever done. A deluge of applause pours over him as he stands and exits the stage.

It was a success... His patroness was very happy that her investment paid off. Everybody present is jealous of her talented smith. As expected everything Tiberius brought to the gala was sold immediately. He said his farewell to his patroness and head home early. The party was still in full blast but Tiberius doesn't care for gatherings. He is just happy that he is able to pull it off amidst the shaking of his whole body.

He then went home and got his well earned rest.
