['tis the woeful fate of Zelgadis Greywords to be tragically unappreciated by those around him.

Yeah, don't worry, I'll make sure we're on our way by the end of the day.

And helping with cleanup doesn't count as an odd job. Hopefully, Zelgadis will agree when Emery winds up drying dishes and chattering with the goblins again.

See? It's not even noon yet.
