Veronica’s gaze narrowed into a frown as she tried to process what this sage had told her. A beast hiding under the earth? Well that was new... In all her years living here and in Tour de Rouge, she had never once heard of such a beast.

“Is this some sort of con or something?” Veronica asked, shifting her hammer to a more ready position on her shoulder. If it was she could only hope he got the bright idea to find a mark in some other city; The Order usually took such silver tongues as a tithe. He didn’t look like such a shady person, but maybe that was the whole idea… She wished Serena was here, she had a knack for this sort of thing.

Serena tilted her head as the girl searched her belongings. How thorough. She didn’t seem to remember where she left whatever object it was that she dropped, however.

“I believe it landed somewhere over there?” Serena offered with an unsure frown, pointing a finger at a certain patch of dirt. “Or perhaps I am wrong, it is hard to be sure… Was it important?” She looked back at the woman when she was asked what exactly she saw.

“Well, that cart came at you and I saw you…” She moved her hand in a circular motion as she tried to remember the right word to describe it. “Warp? Yes, I saw you warp out of the way. It looked like quite the useful talent.” She was rather confused by how nervous this woman was about it. They were not in Foji, and the powers did not seem demonic in any fashion similar to her own. 

Unless, as Serena suspected and the woman’s weapons and skills suggested, she was some sort of assassin. Her look of confusion turned into an icy glare for just a fleeting moment before it returned to something more neutral. Perhaps she would need to warn the Order before she resumed her search.
