Ah. You two actually made it to Crossroads? *It's Sock Anon. They look surprised you survived.*
...I have come with another gift. *It's a rather thick wad of cash.* Due to a mess of politics and economics I don't care for because it doesn't concern me, the Blackrockian currency is basically worthless outside of the country. That will last you two weeks if you are frugal, though I suggest you get a job of some kind.
*You can actually see what they look like. They're blurry, like you shouldn't be seeing them, but there are a few details. Black head-wings, black antlers, a deer-like tail, and a long, white tailcoat with a gold cravat. They also wear grey socks with a bow on the back.*
There are several boarding houses in Lower Crossroads. They're dirty and crowded, but it's better than being on the streets. Crossroads is a dangerous place, and you two don't have your bodyguards and reputation to save you here.
Medkit is especially in danger, there's a trafficking ring around here that captures healing gears and forces them into unpaid labor. I haven't seen them in a bit, so maybe the Warden is doing his job. Unlikely, that- *they're cut off by... something. Actually, do they even have a mouth?* ...I shouldn't be saying half of what I want to call that nepo baby. I should be going.
Oh, and did you see Birdie Anon?
-We did! Obviously because of my genius. You really thought somebody as great as I would fail to just walk through some snow?
-Well, we did notice the difference, but it being worthless is... Slightly concerning.
-Boarding houses? Who do you take me for? Someone who would live in... That?
-We will probably end up going there.
-Well, that's not particularly good. I will try to keep myself safe. - He doesn't seem too happy about the idea of being kidnapped
-Once again thank you for the stuff!
