hikari looks thoughtful, frowning. that poor woman is in trouble.. maybe his quest to make an incredibly awful decision can wait a few minutes. ] ...Are you in need of assistance?
[ would you like to guide hikari? O: you do not have to but you can! ]
[ in the meantime, the shopkeeper just grumbles, throwing his hands up. ] Like an hour ago! This gigantic scholar showed up and cracked my counter in half, and some dancer with a mean mouth came and robbed me half blind! Other guy left me some money, but what, twenty leaves? That's nothing.
[ speaking of robbing half blind! you BARELY succeeded that roll so you are successfully able to steal from the counter. lucien you obtain: 20 leaves! haha.
you also obtain whatever this is...? it feels like a coin or a bead, but it's not the same as the leaves. there's a red thread stuck to the top of it. weird. ]
[ we all take a moment to stare into hikari's beautiful, marriageable eyes with a wistful and soft sigh. deep in his heart, shu feels something. like an alliance once forged, a memory of teamwork, typos and a connection lost too soon.
he also, oddly, feels like he should go to sleep.
anyway. ]
It'd get you a nice coat at the apothecary. [ but, hmm. interesting. ] Did you see which way they went after they-- [ bullied ]-- robbed you?
[ rest assured that hikari feels that way too, shu... his heart grows warm and his expression even warmer, and he smiles at you. you get the sense that perhaps... perhaps in another lifetime... you were meant to be teammates.... you are truly friends.....
anyway, also, he nods. ] Yes, of course. I... will need to get to Rai Mei soon, anyhow. I wish you the best of luck on your journey ahead, my friends.
[ with that, sweet hikari bows. unless one of you wants to rob him or pick his brain for information he will take his leave... perhaps to go meet up with the rest of his party.
[ shopkeeper time! he grumbles, completely missing lucien robbing him AGAIN (BLACKSNAKES!!!) and tries to put the counter back together. ] Iunno. Back towards the Sanctum Knights'd be my guess. They've probably caught them and thrown them in prison by now. Snake bastards.
[ damn.
anyway maybe you'll make the guys day because there are SO many weapons in here! here are some things in your price range.
- Sanctum Sword (40 leaves) - Chef's Ladle (60 leaves) - Black Dagger (60 leaves) - Cupid's Bow (60 leaves) - Staff of Judgement (120 leaves) - Marietta (120 leaves), which appears to be a dagger
there is also! - Rotten Jerky (1 leaf. why would you want this.) - Rosary of Redemption (20 leaves: bought after confessional) - Blessing in Disguise (60 leaves: a small charm that you could say is lucky) - Vivifying Stone (120 leaves: leaves you feeling lively) - Cait Powder (300,000 leaves: summons an adorable cait. )
["perhaps to go meet his party" I THINK HE IS ACTUALLY GOING TO THE MOUNTAINS TO MAKE BAD DECISIONS
Eunhyuk is thinking that if they go back to the provisioner's shop then perhaps he will buy more grapes.... but
he looks at the rosary........ that looks church-related..... he will buy two (40 leaves) and offer each to shu and lucien in a desperate attempt to make them look religious for whatever future alpha roll he has to do maybe,]
[ HIKARI HAS NEVER MADE A BAD DECISION IN HIS LIFE (this is a lie). hi jan when you read this we love you and your malewife.
shu will turn to nod at the man he probably knew in another life, another murdergame and nods. ]
Safe trip.
[ well. the name is something, but he will drop 60 whole leaves to get this cupid's bow seeing as he's a bow boy now. can he sell the weapon he did have? ]
[ who doesn't love a knife with a woman's name? that means it's gonna be good. he'll drop the 120 on sweet, sweet Marietta so hey at least the shopkeeper gets his 20 back and lucien got a cool discount. aren't we all happy now. ]
eunhyuk, you are now down to 60 leaves! he hands the rosaries to lucien and shu. i will tell you what those do shortly.
shu: yes you may have the cupid's bow! it is a white bow with pink heart shaped arrows. you know that you have a chance to confuse a target if you shoot them with it. when you sell back your bow, it is only worth 20 leaves. that leaves you with 80 leaves. also the fond feeling of friendship that comes with interacting with hikari ku.
lucien: you buy marietta! marietta is a nice dagger - it feels right in your hand, in a way you don't know how to explain. it feels so right that you realize you have a slim chance of instantly killing a target if you use this dagger. wow... also you're broke now.
the gang decides to leave the shop! by the time they get outside, the sun is starting to set which means its time for a music change.
up ahead looms the entrance to the sanctum knights headquarters. you also might see that to the left... castti, partitio and hikari have convened nearby! they're all talking to each other because they're friends. now might be a good time to decide if you want to recruit one of them.
you also notice it feels like there should be a fourth person there - if you look, you might see a flicker of bright blue flame out of the corner of your eye, but you blink, and it's gone.
weird! anyway aside from trying any path actions on these three you might not have done before, you may also want to discuss your information that you've obtained so far. you've got a lot of it! ]
[catboy shu with a cupid's bow is so funny. also eunhyuk will buy the chef's ladle for 60 so he is also broke now. may future merchants look kindly upon his holy vestments.
he glances over at the headquarters, armored figures walking in and out.]
I told one of the Sanctum Knights in the tavern that we're here to find Alpates. He told me about her relationship with the Pontiff, but said it was a secret he discovered working with another Inquisitor.
[also he glances over at the three familiar faces, and then back at shu and lucien.]
I can ask one of them for help, if you think we need an extra person.
[ he really is just a little catboy cupid now. i hope we're about to experience The Horrors so we can remember The Horrors are happening while shu is just like this. why is shu the only one with cash now, help. come and get your pocket money, kids. ]
... The woman, maybe? She seemed pretty fierce. And she'll probably stand out less than the guy in yellow. [ thoughts? ]
[ all shu has is an innate knowledge of how to throw his bird at people and be a disney catboy cupid princess these are so many words. ]
If you make me travel with that man, I will slit his throat. The woman at least has demonstrated she knows how to take care of her business.
[ THREATS? ]
He did mention Alpates seemed ... gentle, or nice. Or perhaps simply scared. I imagine she's not as much thief as pawn in this game we're being made to play. We'll need to enter their stronghold.
[ eunhyuk has a chef's ladle! as it turns out this is as big as his staff. he can cast magic through it and whack stuff with it both. wow. it also has a slight chance of confusing an enemy when you hit them with it!
you may continue to decide and approach them when you are ready. i made you wait 25 minutes for this tag im sorry my notifs were not happening ]
[Eunhyuk looks from himself, to Shu, to Lucien, and then to the other three. If you were a woman who lost family and was currently on the run from the Church(?) then who in this entire group would you trust...]
...I think Alpates would open up to her more easily.
[and with that decision he will head over to the group!! with a nod of greeting, holding a soup ladle staff.]
Hello again. I didn't get to introduce myself earlier, but my name's Eunhyuk, and these are my companions Shu and Lucien.
[he will look over at the blonde lady, making eye contact!!! hi do you remember when lucien tried to steal from you]
We took your advice. It was very effective. [actually lucien ended up stealing more stuff] So much that I was hoping to ask you for your help again, if you can spare it.
[eunhyuk says..... choosing GUIDE... i hope he fails in front of everyone]
a few things happen. first of all lucien once again uses eunhyuk or shu talking to someone as a cover to rob partitio. partitio probably would've given you these items for free (or at least maybe cut a good deal with you) but you ROB him even though he is a nice boy
anyway he misses the fact he is being pickpocketed entirely because he's worried and paying attention to the conversation so lucien, you get:
- 100 leaves - "Alrond's Promissory Note" - A piece of paper that just says HE CAN DO WHAT HE WANTS - ALROND RONDWELL OF WELLGROVE. please hold for what that means
MOVING ON. ]
[ castti is also suitably distracted by eunhyuk. nice hustle guys. she glances over, looking him up and down briefly as he talks... her expression, which is very '_' does look immediately sympathetic. those are the magic words - "we could use your help." ]
... How may I assist you? Did one of you get injured...?
[ she looks between partitio and hikari, who also look very curious. ]
Edited (i forgot he has a last name) 2024-03-26 20:31 (UTC)
[!!!! '_' to '_' communication.... as lucien steals all of partitio's possessions]
We're looking for a woman named Alpates. We don't mean her any harm. We're just trying to find out why she ran, and who she's running from.
I don't know if she'll trust us, but she might be more comfortable if an unrelated party was with us. [someone not church mission related???] We're planning to go to the guardhouse and search for her there.
[ i hate to say it but perhaps what shu will see is lucien having like. the most fun he's had since he's arrived here? he is ... enjoying himself? perhaps he just enjoys petty crime for petty's sake. ]
[ hikari is also stupid. this is a fact of life. he also trusts his new friends implicitly, so when lucien just scooches on over and pickpockets him? zero trouble. you feel like someone, somewhere is judging hikari for how easy this was.
anyway for his pickpocketing lucien now has
✨ 10 leaves (hikari is broke.) ✨ A small round shield (enables you or whomever equips it to use the skill COVER one time ) ✨ An adorable charm handmade by a woman from Ku... perhaps by his mother? That woman is dead. You stole that from him. You did that. ✨ The sense that you have robbed the nicest boy in the entire world.]
[ bullying partikari aside, we return to castti and eunhyuk. she listens to this explanation, thoughtful...
and after a moment, she nods. ] Alpates...I recall Temenos was searching for her, too.
[ she looks back to the others - partitio grins and waves his hand. Y'all go ahead now, don't worry bout us! Me and Hikari can hold down the fort.
hikari nods. "Yes... Rai Mei will surely just want to talk. I think we can handle it, Castti... if not, we shall return."
she looks over these two boys, frowning - clearly very worried about what is absolutely going to be a garbage plan, but eventually nods, turning her attention back to eunhyuk. castti bows her head, polite. ] Thank you for having me. I will do everything I can to help you out. Shall we proceed?
[ (victory fanfare)! castti florenz has (temporarily) joined your party! castti is an apothecary, aka a harmacist. she not only has the ability to heal with her medicinal concoctions, but she can poison enemies as well. additionally, she can swing an axe really fucking hard! her path actions are “inquire” which allows her to ask nicely for information instead of beating people up in their mind palace about it and requires no rolls, and “soothe” which will probably be irrelevant but if its not ill let you know.
you also get to instinctively know that she is on a journey for memory. whatever that means. but congrats your team has TWO HEALERS now. yall are so prepared.
[IS HIKARI COMMITTING A TERRIBLE DECISION WITHOUT TEMENOS AND CASTTI HELP ME WE STOLE HIS ONLY OTHER HEALER
But anyway Eunhyuk is very grateful, unaware that Lucien has robbed both of Castti's friends blind. TIME TO HEAD TO THE SACRED GUARD HQ!!!!!
The nice thing about Eunhyuk is that since he emotes close to never, he will look like it's totally normal for him and his merry band to just stroll right up to the gates and attempt to enter like they all belong here.]
[ the spirit of homophonic shu is unimpressed but this isn't homophonic!shu, it's spacecoast!shu, so he just hopes that hikari doesn't need to buy more grapes any time soon. at least lucien is having a good time. ]
Alpates seems like a popular lady. Might not hurt to double up in finding her then.
Thanks.
[ listen.
hikari's with partitio, and partitio ain't broke he's just down 100 leaves. go stock up boys, and don't do anything stupid. stupider than usual.
onwards into the sacred guard hq to cause some chaos. ]
[i hope we've badended octopath because we stole their only other healer. well that's fine. but yeah, they'll all sweep off towards the sacred guard headquarters but lucien will make sure he goes last as they all turn away - and as he does he'll flick the handmade charm back towards hikari with his thumb, give him a wink and a salute off of his forehead and then jog off to catch up.
[ hikari is instantly endeared to lucien. in fact. his ears are a little pink as he catches the charm...? as a man with canonically bad taste he finds this move very attractive but he doesn't realize that's the emotion he's having.
anyhoo.
as the three - no as the FOUR of you make your way up the stairs of the sanctum knights headquarters, you receive no strange looks or anything like it. at least…not at first.
one of the knights wearing a maroon tabard gives you sort of an odd look as you come up the stairs. she’s tan, tall, white haired, walking with her head held high, a captain’s brooch affixed to her chest. however...one sweep over the four of you and she shakes her head, and then continues walking.
eunhyuk puffs up his chest, walks to the gate, and says We're on urgent business. with all the confidence of…
… a man who rolled a 9 on his alpha check. the guard at the gate looks at him, unimpressed, but the woman with the captain badge snorts without even turning around and waves her hand. “Let them in.”
the guard says, “Yes, Captain Kaldena! and moves aside to open the door to the headquarters.
the interior of the sacred guard’s headquarters is a massive cathedral. the entire back wall is made of stained glass, and it throws beautiful rainbow patterns from the slowly setting sun outside across stone pews and stone floors. it’s the second most beautiful stained glass in all of solistia - second only to the cathedral of the sacred flame itself, deep (at home) in the heart of flamechurch.
as you make your way inside, you find that it’s empty. it must be getting close to the changing of the guard - that, or the figures who live here may have headed off for the evening. there’s one person sitting at the front desk, a cleric, but she has her head down and appears to be reading a book.
you might feel the urge to stop. to talk to the cleric, to. well, maybe to rob her. however, as you make your way in, it’s like there’s a whisper of a voice that says “keep walking”. when the four of you look ahead of you, you swear you see a figure wreathed in blue flame standing a few steps ahead. it looks a little like the knight crick - his eyes are beseeching, briefly, and he keeps walking to the stained glass panel at the very back of the room.
he then walks straight through it.
in fact, the more you look at it, the more you realize that panel seems to be…shimmering. the four of you are drawn to the stained glass panel by force (me) and the closer you get, you realize you can simply push the stained glass and there’s a hidden door that opens with a click.
