@Aquaknight Have you tried turning it off and on again?
(Aka installing and then uninstalling... or was it the other way around...?)

Wings Askew

@PyroDash888 Sorry, where is Sera? We could bump into each other in the food market :D

@Acromantula

Sorry was asleep.
I haven't actually defined where exactly she is. But food market sounds right, since she just bought a sweet pie to celebrate her latest haul.

Wings Askew

Same here, my ID is fire_inferno888
However I will be sleeping right now so I'll accept stuff when I'm awake again I guess.

Wings Askew

@PyroDash888 That works well with me, Orphans unite! Maybe Forrest was a sort of caretaker when she was first an orphan and taught her how to live by herself and even how to steal if she couldn't gather enough money to buy food?

@Aquaknight

That's what I had in mind, yeah.

@PyroDash888 Well, she could possibly have some kind of business relationship with Lee, if you'd like. Coming in to see if the gems on the artifacts or whatever they're made of is real and whatnot, since that's what Lee specializes in.

@Acromantula

Mhhh, yup. Makes sense, sure. ^.^

Wings Askew

One thing I can say, Sera might know Forrest rather well, due to them both being orphans, although he is quite a lot older than her, so I imagine Forrest taught her a few survival skills and so on. How 'bout it, @Aquaknight?

For Tivo, I can see her meeting him on one of her scavenger hunts once in a while. @Ebonsquire

Maybe Rahna for the herbs and medicine, or better Rahna's mother and by association Rahna. @Rekaigan

Since I made Sera quite the loner, I don't have anything else right now. If somebody comes up with something, shoot it at me.

Wings Askew

I am quite unsure about Sera's relations to the rest of the people here... hmm...

Wings Askew

Well, anybody who would want to meet Sera is welcome to do so. ^.^

Sera

Chewing on her last slice of bread Sera checked her leather bag one more time. Yup, everything in there. This was it, her last straw. If she didn't get enough money from the artifact she was carrying in her bag right now to finance another artifact recovery operation, she was done for. It'd be back to collecting food scraps for her, something she didn't need to have to do since her 12th birthday. It seemed like all the close ruins had been picked dry by somebody else.
She knew of Tivo more or less hanging around the ruins all the time, but as far as Sera knew, he wasn't in it for the money.
In her time as scavenger, she had run into him from time to time, but mostly ignoring his presence as much as possible. To disturb Sera's work was to disturb her income.
Now, though, it seemed dire. With a long, drawn out sigh, Sera stared at the trinket in the bag. It was a golden goblet, engraved with a depiction of some event. Sera was no specialist, but she assumed it described a coronation, so she hoped it was worth at least a little. Maybe even to the royal family.
"Well, then... Let's go and meet fate...", she muttered as she shouldered the leather bag.
Sera exited her small house, which she bought a few years ago to stay off the street, lying at the border of Heron. She adored the swung roof and the slightly isolated location on top of a little hill with a perfect view to the marketplace.

Slowly Sera strolled down the dirt pathway down the hill until it became cobblestone, she bee-lined for her favourite trader.
"Good morning, Sera. Got something for me?", he yelled as soon as he saw her. More or less, he owed Sera most of his fortune, so he was quite thankful to her and always excited to see her.
"Yeah. Can you give me a good estimate for this?"
Sera took out the trinket and placed it on the trader's table.
Said trader aaahhh'd and ooohhh'd at the sight of the trinket. "This is really good. Have you kept that in a hidden stash until now?"
Sera shook her head. "I'm out of money, so this is my last one.", she confessed.

A bit later, Sera, now a lot more happy than in the morning sat down on a bench munching a sweet pie she had bought with the money she had just gotten. This seemed to have been the best loot she had ever sold, so she was quite eager to celebrate, but after this, it was back to shopping for food to equip her next scavenging trip. But for now, she chewed happily on the pie.
