It was early in the morning, roughly 5am at least I thought as my ears twitched when I got up from the bed. "Mhm..." I groaned as I stood up yawning, as I rubbed my eyes I turned to the other side of the house (?) to see Emmalyn sleeping soundly... Well I guess I don't even know if it can be considered a house... I've been staying with Emmalyn for 2 weeks now, I was helping phoenix drop by patrolling the day and helping Emmalyn with her studies by night... "Time to go on patrol..." I yawned as I took my armor from a chest and started putting it on. "Wonder when Aph will come?" I mumbled to myself. I knew that Aph had not come yet because

1. They the Lord they had was a male

2. The village has not been changed from Aph's Mcd s1 ep1 video

3. And Dale and Molly aren't married yet.

"Wonder how long till... He's gone..." I thought about the old Lord's death. 'Help- if someone hears me say that it's bound to sound suspicious huh' I thought walking out of the Library (?), House (?) and joined Dale on Patrol, "Hello Sir Dale!" I greeted the man "Why hello there Lady Mei" the man greeted back. "Got any new information to share?" I asked him, I had asked the knights for some help getting me information, going out as an Scholar really helped me in that sense... "Unfortunately nothing new has popped up though I hear Garroth's meeting with a merchant for some items tasked by the Lord" 'Tasked by the lost to meet with a merchant he said? Wait... VISCHER!' I thought of the man that had died in the explosion... I didn't get to see him when I was in Bright Port as he was a traveling merchant "C-can I go see them...?" I stuttered god why did I stutter, that's not my problem right now I have to see that lovable man! "Hm? Sure I don't think Garroth would mind" I hugged Dale as soon as he said that. "Oh. Sorry it's just- uhm Thanks" I let go of the man running away. 'Wait! I forgot to ask where Garroth was!' I face palmed as I realized.

"If I were to talk to a merchant about business where would I take them?" I asked myself out loud "Ah the plaza! Wait they don't have that here yet... Dang it." I Face palmed for the 2nd time today. "Why is the miss looking for a merchant?" I heard a voice... his voice ugh double dang it! "Oh Zenix!" I acknowledge him, hah maybe it'll help his ego...! "Dale mentioned a merchant was in town so I wanted to welcome them! But I got too excited that I had forgotten to ask for the way... Heh" I tried to play it off as a simple mistake hoping he would take it and leave me alone. "Then why not go back to dale and ask him?" he questioned me suspiciously "I got too far away when I realized...?" 'That has got to be the saddest excuse I ever gave to someone I swear to god' I mentally face palmed for the 3rd time this day! "Oh If it's like that then they're currently near the farm right now!" thank god Zenix was as dumb and naive as when Aph started the series... I think? "Oh why didn't I check there?" *Sigh*I swear my face is slowly turning into a pancake from how much I face palm myself I said that while mentally doing it for the 4th time "Thanks Zenix, I'll be going now!" I waved goodbye quickly not wanting to stay with him any longer.

I had spotted Garroth and Vischer from the distance, 'this is one of the only times I am thanking him- no more than this' I thought as I walked up to the 2 gentlemen "Hello Garroth! Dale told me a merchant had visited the village!" I smiled at the man wearing a helm then looked at Vischer 'hm yeah he looks exactly as he did in the Series only... Younger? I swear I thought that it won't be long till the main story started? Maybe it was the stress....' I tried to think of a plausible reason. "Ah Lady Michelle, Yes let me introduce you. This is Vischer he's a traveling merchant from Bright Port" I already knew this information but eh. "Vischer from Bright Port eh? Oh you must me Merida's husband!" I smiled. Acting like a naïve girl was hard... "You know my Merida?" he asked. He must not have come back to Bright Port yet... "Ah yes I was a traveling scholar before I settled her for a bit!" I explained smiling at him "I met your wife and son while I was in Bright Port! They were a delight to stay with!" I explained how his family helped me when I was in Bright Port "Ah I see that sound very much like my Merida!" he smiled at me "Well I assume you wanted some information? Seeing as you're a traveling Scholar looking for a Merchant after all" he asked me. "Well I best continue my Patrol now Vischer, Michelle I wish you the best in getting something out of meeting Vischer" I could tell Garroth was smiling under that helm as he excused himself, "Oh Okay goodbye Garroth" Dale waved him off "Bye Garroth! -Now where was I? Ah yes I was wondering if you had any information about witches, where I can find one specifically?" I smiled as Garroth left then went back to Vischer. "Oh Witches? Then you must be a Magicks scholar, well regarding my information on that topic I think we should head somewhere we can have a seat" he smiled I'm guessing he has a lot of things to share to me. "Oh okay then let's go to the Library!"
