- Uh, how can I help here... Have you ever been to "Pam-Parame"? The owner's son worked there as a waiter.
"Another reason to get drunk, but how much more can there be, I'll turn into an alcoholic..."

New here? I'm Roha — want a quick tour?
- Uh, how can I help here... Have you ever been to "Pam-Parame"? The owner's son worked there as a waiter.
The mercenary priestess had to wait for almost half a year for the right moment to kill this man and loot his fancy gadgets, and finally, the long-awaited revenge was at hand... But, unfortunately, since he wasn't wearing a coat or suit, there wasn't much to loot, so she had to abandon the idea, because killing is a sin when it doesn't bring material gain.
After taking a dozen deep breaths, almost getting dizzy, she smoothed her clothes and pinned-up hair with a trembling hand, shaking off a couple of spiders and pine needles. Raising her fist above the front door, she hesitated and sniffed her armpit in horror, but her fears were unfounded - nothing but the scent of perfume and meadow flowers emanated from it, as always.
Knock-knock-knock - her knuckles greeted the door.
- K-Christopher? We knew him a little, just said hello... But why did he hang himself???
"Another reason to get drunk, but how much more can there be, I'll turn into an alcoholic..."
- Then let's begin... I think that many residents of Margel are interested in a very simple, but no less important question: the birthplace of the right pillar.
-- I would suggest a different format: you give me a list, I select the questions, and I answer them all at once. Would that work? -- the right-hand person said with a friendly smile. -- Otherwise, I won't even finish talking to my friends, and there are many other things that need to be done. I hope you understand; I'd like to get it done in a small number of messages. Although I enjoy your company, how about a more business-like approach? )
- Good afternoon, - greets the current head of "Abundance" to a couple at the entrance to the closed store, - my name is Assa Kombini, can you spare a few minutes for me?
He swallows nervously and enters.
- And to you as well. - he replies, briefly glancing at the closed door. - I think we are somewhat familiar; I sold you inventory from my last trip last week. So yes, perhaps I can. We just stopped by to see the assortment...
- ... They say it was because his girlfriend left him.
- This is an interview, not a survey, so it won't work... If now isn't the best time for this, I understand, we can meet on another day.
- ...
- ...
- ...yeah, that's true. It seems like he loved her very much, perhaps more than she deserved... - Beata snorted.
-- That's how it is... Well, I didn't know about these nuances, -- the grandmaster lowered her gaze. -- Hmm, and what should we do, given what's already been promised? Okay, I've already ruined this interview, please forgive me and let me start fresh another day 🙏
"Maybe by that time, the pink spot inside me will solidify so much that the green one will also become impossible to get rid of. A futile hope, but it would be nice. Or I'll finish the armor and achieve a similar utilitarian result - a less futile hope."
- That's the problem!.. You see, after what happened to the previous owner, I have no idea what to do to make this store profitable again! Maybe you have some ideas about what kind of goods you would like to see on our shelves?
- Uh-huh, that's what we'll do. - Takes out a notebook and pencil. - So when would be convenient for you?
- Ohay. When did you manage to build all this? - taking advantage of the question, the guest averts her gaze, or rather, shifts it to the surroundings.
—Profitable? —the no-name asks in bewilderment. —To be honest, from the main shop selling quality affordable gear for adventurers, I expected to hear something like that last. That's not aimed at you, of course, just an observation about the market as a whole. Hasn't anyone remained in the capital besides named NPCs with thousands of rems for elite equipment?.. For example, we stopped by to look for something for empty slots for the season; I don't think that's such an exception...
Perhaps someone in her place, after previous thoughts, would have tried to stretch the time as much as possible, scheduling things a couple of months or years later, but she didn't even consider it — because if Erefir doesn't solve his problem quickly, then she herself is to blame. Let it be a challenge.
-- On Thursday, after the OD update, at eight in the morning, -- she states confidently, as if her schedule until then is planned down to every little detail. -- Thank you for understanding.
- Love makes you dull...
