Right.
*Hops in*
It's pretty dangerous though.

@Legend Begins

Safety regulations haven’t gone so crazy yet here apparently.
*Steps in as well*

You pick up what not to touch pretty quickly.

Quick enough to keep my head, I hope.

*We pass several floors of the garage until daylight peeks out from the top of the lift*

*Gets up on my toes to try and peek out at the town before we fully get up there*

@Magnanimity

*The roads are full of people wearing a variety of clothing, from rags to top hats and monocles, some outfitted with brown leather vests and gloves, and many accessories with mechanical appearances, with one stand-out trait being a clear class divide between residents*
This part is at least a little more safe.
*The buildings are outfitted with winding brass staircases and twisting, enormous gears, and laced with notched pipes possessing color-coded stripes at each joint*

I feel like I’m at some sort of Ren Fair with a weird twist.

What's that?
*Steps off the elevator once we get to ground level, onto a cobblestone mainway*

@Legend Begins

Huge events where people go to pretend they’re living in a way older period of time. For fun.

@Magnanimity

Oh. Did your world's history look a little like this?

@Legend Begins

No. The steampunk aesthetic never really was a thing, outside fiction.

Blue once described it as being stuck between the new and the old.

@Legend Begins

That's definitely a good way to put it.

@Magnanimity

First things first, find new clothes? I guess we need to trade for money first.

@Legend Begins

I do need to do that, yeah. There a good all-in-one place to get stuff appraised? Like a pawn store, or will a general trader barter like that?

@Magnanimity

There's an equipment shop down the road we can visit. Do you want me to carry any of that?

@Legend Begins

If you want to carry the case with the gun and sword you can… By the way, where are we going to say we got this from in a way that makes sense?

@Magnanimity

*Takes the case off your hands*
A faraway land, and you’re tight on money. That won’t raise many questions.
*The clocks hit the top of the hour, and scattered clock faces across the city ding in unison, harmonized with the hum of soft pipe organs*

*Glances around at the clocks and smiles*
You’re probably right.

@Magnanimity

If we’re heading there, I know a shortcut.
*Ducks into an alley, and on the other side is a moving sidewalk with a counterpart sliding in the opposite direction on the other side of the street, and next to where we exit is a red and amber-lacquered candy shop*
