*Rides the next sidewalk until we arrive at a store with wooden cutouts and glaring amber lights spelling out the name "Hunter's Outlet"*
With any luck.


Seems like the kind of place that might be interested in outdoorsy stuff.

Never met him before. I've just been to the town a couple times.


Hope he's nice.
<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

Oh, I see.
*The sidewalk terminates at a counterclockwise rotating circle, where people get off at one of several streets that branch out like spokes*
Third on the right.


You know the guy?
<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

I guess there's nothing to stop you from walking on it if it's not moving.


No but pulling up all the stuff to get to the clockwork underneath and having to close off streets for that is then image I had in my head.
<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

I don't know how they do it. There are maintenance tunnels under the city though.
*Curved glass panes separate a variety of shops, including repair shops, barbers, and other amenities*


I'm just imagining closed streets because a mechanism breaks down.

*Several bridges with glass walls extend above us, and a hypnotic red and black spiral marking a hospital, alongside a cinema decked out in gaudy exposed gears, clearly for show*
They're convenient for pedestrians.


Annoying to fix a breakdown though I imagine.

Sidewalk escalators...
*Is taking in the sights as I follow you around*
<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

*Takes the case off your hands*
A faraway land, and you’re tight on money. That won’t raise many questions.
*The clocks hit the top of the hour, and scattered clock faces across the city ding in unison, harmonized with the hum of soft pipe organs*


*Glances around at the clocks and smiles*
You’re probably right.
<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

There's an equipment shop down the road we can visit. Do you want me to carry any of that?


If you want to carry the case with the gun and sword you can… By the way, where are we going to say we got this from in a way that makes sense?
<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

First things first, find new clothes? I guess we need to trade for money first.


I do need to do that, yeah. There a good all-in-one place to get stuff appraised? Like a pawn store, or will a general trader barter like that?
