A heavy door slam is heard, some old English folk music was idly playing in the backdrop, smell of ale breath was abundant here,Eios and Sios looking around was cut off by ''
???:WELL HELLO THERE , WHAT CAN I GET YOU LOVELIES??
The loud voice jolted them both, looking at who it was, they just saw.. a hat? Eio approached i and patted it
Eio:A magical hat that can talk *scoff* now I know I've seen everything
??? :YOU'VE SEEN NOTHING YET M'LADY (as the hat would get up higher and higher , till it gave birth to a man, a very short one, on a tall stool( A SHORT MAN ISNT NUFFIN' TOO OUT OF THE ORDINARY IN THIS COUNTRY YOU KNOW?
Sio: I didnt see any short people on the w-
???:WELL OF COURSE NOT , WE'RE HIDDEN, SO MUCH AS A CAT COULD POSE A THREAT TO OUR SMALL STATURE SELVES ,SO WHAT CAN I GET YOU LADIES?
Eio would cuff her ears, rubbing them a little
Eio:Well, could you be more quiet for starters? I can barely hear now..
The man looked with a confused expression
???:WHAT IS QUIET? THIS IS HOW I NORMALLY TALK? WANT TO SEE HOW LOUD I AM IF I SHOUT???
Eio and Sio violently shook their heads
The man let out of hearty laugh, shaking the shop they were in
???:I'LL SPARE YA THEN, THE NAME IS POKOLE MIC DE STATURA, OR JUST CALL ME POK FOR SHORT!
Eio smiled weakly ,determined to not prolong this exchange
Eio:So um, what do you have around her, anything of use?
Pok looked at them with a bit of a doubtful look
POK:YOU HAVE EYES ... DONT YA?
Eio chuckled weakly too, Sio was already way ahead of her, scanning the walls, trying to reach a diamond studded dagger on the wall
Sio:Shiny!!!!
Eio:Sio, no, we have piggy bank savings, not a treasure chest (she would gently smack her head(
Sio:Ow! Okay..
They would look around the walls, it would take them hours, then Pok would eye them
POK:YOU KNOW THERE'S A DOWNSTAIRS AND UPSTAIRS TOO RIGHT?
Eio's jaw hanged , Sio jumped happily
Sio:Yay! More goodies to look through!!
-------------------------------------------------------
After about 4 hours of looking, which felt like an eternity and then some, Eio thought to herself:
Eio:Hmm, lets see, 1000 Penye, there are some knives here, some nets, some food in the cellar, some books, ugh, nothing of value here, besides some food and water, thought something that was so tucked away would bring more value than just survival tools
She then caught Pok playing with something in his fingers , it looked like a beautiful red stone, he then set it down on his desk,Eio rushed to him, then slowly down to not make things obvious
Eio:What is that?
Pok:OH, THIS THING?(Eio covered one of her ears( I HAVE NO IDEA, IT LOOKS PRETTY THOUGH, WEIRD THING ABOUT IT THOUGH, I TRIED TO UM, UM , OH YEAH, BITE INTO IT ONCE, I SWALLOWED A BIT OF IT, AND I SAW SOME UH, THINGS
Eio looked puzzled, thinking he was just lying to jack up the price
POK: YOU CAN HAVE IT, I HAVE NO NEED FOR IT, BUT YOU HAVE TO TAKE SOMETHING FROM THE ST-
