A New Life, an Ancient Profession

Who: Misery. Open.
Where: Capricorn District.
Summary: A place of nature should have SOME potential reagents.
Warnings: Misery.
A witch needed ingredients. The stores were well and good, but they obviously only catered to a specific type of shopper -- which is to say the modern types, the ones who wanted nothing but pre-packaged nonsense. Anyway, she hadn't the cash for that sort of thing, and she needed to find a way to start. Money, it seems, makes the world go round even if you want nothing to do with it.

Some quick research had revealed this area, perhaps the closest to nature one could find in a city like this. Perhaps at some point she could venture outside the city walls for a better chance of finding useful things... or creatures. This would have to suffice for now.

Of course, a strange world in strange circumstances meant ANYTHING could be of potential use, which is why she seems to be sampling a bit of everyhing. A touch of bark? A flower? A grass? She collects. It's rather an odd sight for those unused to the old magics. To be fair, of course, Misery is a bit out of touch with them herself. Years of only doing the magics asked of her can make someone a little rusty.

But she can learn. She CAN learn. What a wonderful feeling.

She seems almost happy, actually. This might change if anybody interrupts her, of course. Which, considering what she's doing right now, is almost an inevitability.

"I don't think I'm that funny... so I guess it's even worse than that, huh?" Atsuro doesn't seem too fazed about this disparagement of his humor. At least she wasn't retaliating physically.

"Anyway... I guess the important thing for now is just to learn the ropes about Persona. If there's one thing that's for sure, we'll be seeing a lot more fighting in the future."

"...Well. If you're going to be the shopkeeper NPC, maybe you won't have to get in as many fights. ...Except with the people who try and steal from you."

The wisdom of youth.

"Font of good advice, that's me."

Hey, they'd agreed with his plan in the end to take control of the server, right?

"...Well, I'll let you go look for your herbs now; I need to scope this area out myself."
