Location: The Goblet housing district. Interacting with: [@Hero][hr][/center]

The trip down from the roof had been as uneventful as Byssu had expected. Nikulas yelling was somewhat amusing to Byssu, though she didn't express this. It reminded her of some of the more squeamish Viera that she lived with in her youth. They would timidly climb to the top of a tree and then not have the bravery required to jump down. When Nikulas bowed in thanks to Byssu, she returned the bow in kind as a sign of respect.

Byssu now waited while Suki and Nikulas exchanged a few barbed moments with one another, and when Nikulas relayed that Eji had probably hidden somewhere Byssu nearly gave a sigh of relief. The many memories of reuniting a lost child with their parents in a busy marketplace surfaced for a moment before Byssu reminded herself of the here and now. Tapping her chin, Byssu looked to the rooftops once more before she looked to Suki and asked an important question. "[color=#00FFFF]Suki, pardon the interruption, but could you please describe Eji to me? Or give me a picture if you have one? Getting onto the rooftops is simple for me, and I might be able to spot them from above a bit easier.[/color]"

As she waited for Suki to reply, Byssu mentally planned out her next actions: The first would be leaping back onto the roof and scanning the surrounding area for anyone that matched whatever description she was given. If Byssu didn't find them nearby, she would jump to another rooftop in order to get a new vantage point and repeat the process. The main downside of looking from the roof was that the other buildings would be in the way, but Byssu figured that if Eji expected people to look for them at ground level they might have left the top of their hiding space exposed. Hiding in a barrel was a good way to make sure that nobody on the ground saw you, but if you didn't put the lid back on anyone above could see that it was occupied.

Hopefully Byssu wasn't going to have to check every stray barrel around the housing district. That would be [i]incredibly[/i] tedious.
