He looked around the store with all its fabrics and clothes, though only a few fully made garments to show the tailor's talents, as it seemed like everything was custom fit here. Definitely way over Bidzil's budget....even if he had money. There was then the sound of another set of footsteps approaching, prompting Bidzil to turn to see who it was. Bidzil's eyes widened a bit with a smile as he saw a familiar face walk into the room. [color=F4A460]"Well, I'll be... I never thought I would see you again. Who would have thought that you came all the way out here."[/color] He reached his hand out to shake Aerex's. He stopped for a moment and looked around. [color=F4A460]"H-hey, didn't Joan leave with you as well? Is he in town too? There's something I need to tell you two if you haven't heard already, but you may want to sit down first."[/color] [@drewccapp] The merchant took the silver coins and inspected them, honestly, three silver was a little much in most places, but for a foreigner out in the middle of the desert, most usually paid. He wrapped up a loaf of bread and handed it to him, still warm and with a flaky outer shell. "Ah, a man after the fine arts I see. Well, those lovely flowers don't normally come out until night time at the taverns or during festivals. But maybe madame Valia can help you. she is one of the finest dancers around, she has been teaching other girls for a few years now. She hasn't been herself recently though, guess something has been on her mind. Got some big party we should know about?" he ended with a deep laugh. "She could be just down that street, a few houses away from the chieftain's place. You will know it when you see the blue silk banners. [@Kaia Tau] Ren's shop drew some attention from the local's, not really used to seeing magic, let alone one that spawned an entire shop. A few warrior looking men seemed to take interest, but not to her store, though after a moment of watching one of the men tapped on the other's shoulder and jerked his head towards the market, and they went on their way. There seemed to be a couple girls following behind them, quietly. Not a moment later though,a small group of kids would run up, fascinated at some of the items on display, but when it came to books, a number of them didn't even know how to read them, and their interest wavered more towards the gadgets and magic items instead.

A large brutish looking man, though actually very kind, and his friend liked to come her for a drink or two in the morning to take the edge off the day. But it seemed like the big guy was down once again after hearing some troubling news that hit a little close to home. "Oi, did ya 'ere? That bastard, Lord Calibirs, sounds like he's been lookin for some new girls for, eh...'entertainin' purposes." the big gruff man said at a table to his friend, already half drunk. "You shouldn't talk like that about him, you never know who h has listening-" the other man tried to tell him. "Oh shut it...He already took my daughta. Wut do I care if he hears me. I'm so buried in debts, I'll probably never see 'er again. Least he is leaving us alone this time. Word is 'e wants one them dancing girls from the deserts. Got some...Varlick tribe or whatever on pay." he stammered. The other man sighed. "Look, you are going to have to let it go, you are already working yourself to death, it wasn't your fault. We will get her back soon, I'm sure. As for those in the desert, I couldn't imagine what that must mean for them..."
