"Alright, thanks! See ya in a bit!" Jenso shouted, and headed into Phil's tinkerer shop.

As Jenso entered the shop, he saw all sorts of gadgets. Grappling hooks, armored gauntlets, strange looking artifacts, and of course, the bag that the butcher was talking about. It looked like a normal backpack, except, it was awfully small.

"Welcome to Phil's!" A familiar voice called to Jenso from behind a Junk pile. As he moved around to discover its origin, he noticed something he might soon come to turmoil over. "...You!!" Phil hissed. It was the bandit leader from early on his journey, albeit well dressed and all alone.

Jenso's eyes widened. He quickly got in a combat stance. "You again?!" He roared, clenching his fists. "What, are you running a store now? I bet that everything here is stuff that you and your gang stole!" He added, keeping a close eye on Phil's movements.

Phil rose his hands and pushed at the air in front of him helplessly. "No, no! I'm not a crook no more, kid!" He pleaded, pointing at Jenso. "After you took out my crew and whooped my ass, we were picked up by another carriage that left to discover Arcadia's ruin. Thank God Those folks were there to confirm that we weren't responsible for that massacre..." Phil paused and looked over his shop. "They threw us all in lockup, cept for me. No jail cell can keep me cooped up... But.."

"I see..." Jenso muttered, relaxing somewhat. "Well, as long as you've learned your lesson, it's fine." Jenso said with a smile. He was still unsure if Phil was lying or not, but if he was then he would probably find out soon. He wasn't afraid of the man and his crew. If the man truly did change his ways for the better, then there was no reason for Jenso to remain angry at him. "Oh uh...I wanted to buy the backpack, but the person from the food store told me that I probably don't have enough gold with me." Jenso admitted.

Phil's eyes widened and he smiled. "Oh! Kid! You gotta take it-" Phil said excited, rustling through his odds and ends behind the counter, "I always wanted to find you again. After you kicked the shit out of my gang, I've been doing so much better on my own! I've put my skills to use taking out other Bandits and cultists, and uh... Stealing their loot, ahhaha.." He pulled out yet another sack, but it was much smaller. It was about the size of Jenso's fist, and had a small string to tighten its mouth. Phil looked around carefully, and then stretched the mouth of the bag wide open, so that it was big enough to fit an entire person's body inside. The Interior was black, too dark to see, but it seemed to go on forever. "This is a bottomless pouch! I want you to have it," He said, handing Jenso the pouch. "It's the least I could do. I usually keep the best stuff for myself, but when I go out on my own, I usually don't have the strength to find more than I can fit in a normal Carriage, heh heh."

"Wow, thanks man! That's amazing, I really appreciate it! My name is Jenso, by the way." He said to Phil, respectfully taking the pouch. He closed it with the string again and put the pouch in his pocket. "Take care of yourselves, alright?" He said with a wide grin, and left the store. He headed back to the food store. "Hey dude, is my meat ready?" He asked.

Phil waved Jenso off and began scrounging through his drawers. "Yea, no problem, kid," He called out. "No problem at all."

The butcher hauled out a massive stack of meat and slammed it onto the counter. "Here we are! That'll be 5 gold... Did you get anything at Phil's to carry all this?" He asked, bending over the counter.

"Yeah! Look at this man!" Jenso said excitedly. He reached into his pocket, pulling out the small bag of gold. He placed 5 gold on the table, and pulled his new bottomless pouch out. He removed the string and opened it wide. He put his small bag of gold into the bottomless pouch. "How cool is that?!" He shouted with a wide grin on his face.

"A bottomless pouch?! I thought that was some kind of mythical- Ah, forget it. Open it wide!" The Butcher ordered, pushing the mountain of meat towards Jenso. "I hear those things keep food fresh! Then again, I didn't even think they existed, so who knows, really.."

Jenso nodded and opened the bag wide as the butcher pushed the mountain of meat to him. "Yeah, would be great if it did!" Jenso replied, waiting for the butcher to finish. "It's going to be really useful when I travel.."

"Whereabouts you headed for stranger?" The butcher asked.

"Oh, I'm going to Aldariana! Now that I have a good supply of meat, I should be able to last for a while. I might stay at the inn here though, and ask if they can prepare me a meal. I've been traveling for a few days." Jenso responded to the man.

The butcher nodded and pointed Jenso in the Inn's direction. "They might let ya stay for free if you tell 'em Jon sent ya. Have a good trip!" The Butcher waved Jenso off and smiled as he left the store. "Haha, 5 gold. What a day..."

As Jenso made his way towards the Inn, people stared at his golden shirt in surprise. It was marvelous, and obviously worth some serious dough. But that's not all. Despite Jenso taking so many attacks, and having his shirt ruined multiple times, all the rips seemed to have sealed themselves up without a trace.

As he entered the inn, an woman greeted him with a nod. "Hey there goldenrod! You need a bed?"

"Yeah! Jon sent me here..Oh, can I have a meal first though? I'm pretty hungry.." Jenso replied. A series of roars and growls escaped from his stomach. It sounded like a pack of wild bears and wolves had entered the inn and prepared to attack the people within. "Wow, holy shit!" Jenso muttered.

"Sure buddy. Just head up to room seven," She told him, tossing him a key. "We'll bring up uh.. Lots of food, ahaha.." Jenso was then allowed up into his room. Minutes later, a man brought him a tray, topped off with a full course meal of Roast beef, fried pumpkin seeds, and a stew that smelled awfully amazing. The rest was well deserved, but what Awaited Jenso on the Horizon? As he got to sleep, something didn't feel right. Something was terribly wrong.

---

The morning was kind to Jenso. For one, he didn't wake up without a shirt! It seemed this town wasn't full of thieves, thank christ. After Orobo, who knew where it would be safe to Sleep? You never know when another Bobba might Arise.

Thankfully, he way towards the east exit of Hellion outpost, where guards were stationed. It was strange, since the west entrance, where Jenso had come from, wasn't guarded at all. As he got closer though, it looked like a giant wall, with a massive gate, blocked the entire eastern border, and curved around the backs of the small city-like outpost. "Halt," A guard spoke quickly and moved his spear into Jenso's path. He partner moved his spear to cross with it, a little late. The guard sighed and stared Jenso down. "Whereabouts are you headed?"

Jenso kept a close eye on the guard's spears as they spoke. "To Aldariana." Jenso quickly responded. He didn't know why there were guards at the east exit, but surely he would find out.

The guards stared at him in surprise and reeled back their spears. "Are.. Are you serious? You know that the Jumino population is through the roof, right??"

"Jumino? Who are the Jumino?" Jenso asked. He didn't know what he would expect in Aldariana, so any information he could gain might prove useful later on. He calmed down a bit as the men pulled their spears back.
