Felix arrived in a nice city surrounded by mountains, with a large lake off in the distance. Felix glanced at his mana-dial and noticed it was 19:46, July 2nd, a full day later than the timezone in northern California. Felix wasn't sure where to begin looking for the Summoner Manor, so he activated manalysis to search for any nearby Talents that may be able to direct him where he needed to go. Felix felt the familiar wave signature of a Talent, and began walking. 

Felix arrived at a fruit stand on the side of the road, a young boy with a baseball cap was running the stand. 

"Good evening, young man. I was wondering if you could help me."

"Buy some fruit." The boy said in a bored fashion. 

Felix sighed, and gave the kid a 20 dollar bill. 

"What is this? American currency?" The boy sounded insulted.

"Yes, an-" 

"I can't accept American currency. The exchange on this is right bollocks." The boy angrily rejected the money.

Felix sighed and pulled out a €20 banknote slip. 

"Are you trying to insult me with this garbage? The euro exchange rate is even worse!" The kid crumpled up the banknote and tossed it at Felix's head, rebounding off his forehead and hitting the ground. 

Felix started to get a bit angry but calmed himself down before speaking. "Well... between the two currencies I just gave you, I am sure you can do something with it. I, however, do not have the time to be exchanging my currency for New Zealand dollars just to get some fruit. Now do you know where the Summoners Manor is or don't you?" Felix sighed.

The boy's eyes narrowed, but he conceded. "At the north end of the city there is a trail leading up into the mountains, the Manor you are looking for is on that trail." 

"Thank you." Felix said. And with that Felix began walking towards the north end of the city.

It took him about thirty minutes to reach the trail the boy had talked about. All the landscape was green and verdant, and off in the distance was a large manor peaking over the tops of a grove of trees that surrounded it.

Felix made his way to the front entrance of the grand building. There were a few kids on the front steps playing with various summoned creatures. As they saw him, they panicked in an attempt to hide their creatures, some of them instantly dismissing their creatures. 

"Keep calm, children. I am not an Untalent. I am here for Jessie. Do you know where she is?" Felix asked in a quiet tone.

One of the braver kids, a small boy with a cracked front tooth and a red t-shirt that had a dinosaur picture on it, stepped forth.

"She's teaching the little kids in the courtyard around back." He said, attempting to deepen his voice.

Felix chuckled to himself at the boy's attempt to sound macho, and patted him on the head.

"Thank you," Felix said graciously. 

Felix rounded the corners of the building until he found the courtyard. There he saw a redheaded woman, with two kids with her. The kids were leaning on her every word, it was clear she was a good teacher. 

Felix didn't look imposing, all he had on was a blue cotton T-shirt, some jeans, and a backpack. Since he suppressed his mana-wave signature, everyone who saw him would just see a hiker/tourist. 

Felix approached the group in the courtyard. 
"Jessie Link, could I take a moment of your time?"
