[When you get there, musicians are setting up on the stage! The tables are already set up, but have nothing on them. People seem busy. There's a big man overseeing everything with arms crossed and a satisfied look on his face.
Everyone is dressed in villager clothing except for... some people you may or may not see out of the corner of your eye, who seem to be wearing Imeeji clothing. But it may have been your imagination!]
Call me Gasfut, or Village Elder. Go back to the main street, all the way to the east of the village, and you will find a house there. Give this to the woman. It's this month's pay for the Tree of Life carver.
As Eve will find out, the Village Elder's directions were not too vague. There is, yes, only one house at the end of the street to the east, near the eastern gate.
The door to the front yard is open. And if Eve pays attention, he'll notice there's something on the grass, surrounded by a very faint light blue glow.]
[for the record, Eve will have to carry everything he gets the normal way, there is no Magical Item Storage Window here]
Oh, you must not be from here. He was away for two years as a "swordsman," doing who knows what in Central City. Mother and Father never received any money from him during that time. He completely turned his back on us.

[he hands him a bag. full of coin.]
no subject
Does she have a name?
no subject
Celinia, Orkut's daughter. She is always at her parents' house at this time of the day.
no subject
I see. All the way east for Celinia then.
[He could keep the cash but he's curious about this delivery quest so he's gonna go actually do it.]

...as a child, angrily breaking this toy sword in front of a short grown man.
...as a younger teenager, dragging a blue sword that seems to be made of ice into a shed in the forest, so tired he looks sick.
...as you know him, holding that same sword easily, sheathing it with a relieved smile in an armory.
...using that sword to freeze an entire onsen.
And then you see the sword breaking, and then being reforged, taking on a blood-red color.
--And then you’re back.]
What are you doing in my parents’ home?
[A woman just came out of the house, and is looking at you with some concern...]
no subject
Celinia, isn't it? A present from a Mister Gasfut for the tree of life carver, so he says.
no subject
A present...? Ah, you mean Eugeo's salary. It's true, tomorrow is a rest day.
[thank you, she's going to take it.]
no subject
[He's at least holding on to it.]
Should I give it in person, perhaps?
no subject
[Everyone is lucky and no one lets me have fun. She doesn't recognize the item, it's been too long. Eve can keep it.]
no subject
[Just acquiring junk yeah.]
no subject
He should be working now. Well, he's getting paid, so at least he hasn't run off elsewhere again.
