After spending the first few days back on the island exploring, Himmel found that he quite liked the ward known as Cotes; though far more modern than he was used to, there were many parts of it that felt like home. Creatures of all varieties walked the streets, yet they lived in harmony, unlike he was used to seeing; the strong sense of peace resonating with him, and bringing him a sense of his own.
It was no surprise then that he was in the market that day, having just finished helping an elderly storekeeper stack the rest of her vegetables at her front display. He smiled and waved as he left, now lugging a rather hefty looking bag of potatoes over his shoulder-- his reward for helping her, she'd said. He was sure he could find some use for them for quite some time..
It was only when he noticed a stall selling jewelry and the like that he stopped again; the glittering metals and stones catching his attention, as he stood and admired them. Though he seemed not to be alone, as a woman soon joined him; looking rather curiously at what was before them both.
"Looking for yourself, perhaps? Or trying to find a gift for someone? You truly can find the most unique pieces at places like this, especially when so much care and attention is put into the craftsmanship."
