The dawn of a new day came around swiftly, and like the day before I remained in bed a little while longer, watching as Anput woke up first and slipped into the bath, the Jackalkin determined to squeeze out as much time as she could from this week to forge new things for us, and the workaholic woman had promised me that today she would be making that special dagger for me today, since she had to finish up the prep work for the entire week yesterday.
Of course, she demanded payment for the work she was going to be doing for today, and that payment was expected to be as thorough and earnest as possible after she completed her work, the Jackalkin making that rather clear to me last night, to the point that it was mildly - very mildly - irritating.
