They wanted a pure sample of their element. That was going to be tricky for me. I could snag oxygen from the hospital or water from the tap. That was easy. Once I had the tap water, I could simply filter and boil out all of the impurities. Fire and earth were actually really hard to get in a pure form. I really had to think about it. There were a plethora of metal ores and crystals that developed in the earth. I wondered if that would satisfy them. They were not some minor elemental chumps. They both required a large portion if I wanted them to be satisfied and not turn on me. Luckily, Hollin came to me for another deal. I told him to give me some big crystal deposits and I would waive the fee for this deal. He shook my hand and called it a deal. Because my coven was not being rewarded, I had to entertain them all by myself. It was only fair. This was a strip club. I could do a routine for them. It was billed as a special service as I did not dance for customers. They seemed to like it enough. Hollin came up to me and asked if he could get a private dance. "Sex with me is 10 souls." I smirked. He sighed.
10 souls was a ridiculous price. He had better things to do than waste all those resources on me. The deal ended and I got the crystals. I gave them to the greater earth elementals. Everyone watched as they ate them. It was good enough and the contract finalized. I could now name them. I named them Brock and Stoner. They accepted the names without complaint. I told them that their mission was to protect my family from harm. By that I meant the children and their parents. Ellenor and Odelina were a bit intimidated by the lumbering elementals looking over them. I said "Don't worry. Stoner and Brock will make sure that you are protected." There was a small bout of confusion and aggression when I brought them to Club Wrecked. A, B, C, Gust, Kyle and Myles were all air elementals. Earth and Air did not get along as they were total opposites. Just like Fire and Water. I just looked at them and said "Brock and Stoner are now my new servants. Kyle and Myles, you were freed after providing me good service. As employees, I expect you guys to put rivalries aside and play nice in the clubs."
Clubs. I determined that the monks and clerics were trained well enough that Xavier and his mother could deal with them. Xavier's mother assured me that her presence at The Wreck was still needed. I nodded my head and turned to Xavier. "Looks like you will be going over there. A, C and Kyle will be coming here." I said. "Oh? Those air elementals are coming here? What would you have me do?" she asked. I said "They are excellent MCs and love staging events that show off the rich, elegant culture of the Elemental Air Plane. Customers loved it back then. Now that we've recruited some warriors, it's only gotten more refined. I am very grateful to you. You can be the manager or you may take the MC role. Kyle is familiar with most of the incubi here. He can manage them well, although I think there was a bit of a rivalry when it came to entertaining the customers." One of the dancers scoffed and mumbled "Not much of a rivalry with a flighty airhead." I smiled at her knowingly. "I'll let you pick which job you would prefer." I finished. She chose to be a main manager. I was fine with that choice.
