Evalia stepped onto the ground outside the carriage with her new guitar in her hands, ready to play a song for the people outside. While she was doing so, the colors on her arms and the guitar were changing, and instead of being simply monotonous, patterns were forming all over it and slowly shifting around.

As she stood in front of the carriage, next to Eisen's companions, she slowly began playing her guitar slowly, the sounds immediately reverberating through the air.

This obviously took the attention of everyone that was there, and Komer stared at the young woman without hesitation. At first it seemed like he wanted to complain, but soon enough he realized who he was looking at and just sat there on the blanket utterly stunned as Evalia began to sing together with the music she was playing on her guitar.

Her song carried through the whole plaza, enchanting every single person there and drawing in even the guards that were stationed around the area. But that wasn't all. Probably through Evalia using transformation on her Guitar as well while she was playing, it seemed like all the colors touched by her music became more vibrant, and the mood of everyone that listened rose until basically everyone was enjoying Evalia's performance, cheering her on more and more with every passing second.

After thirty whole minutes, Evalia finished her performance and watched as the huge crowd around her cheered louder and louder.

Evalia smiled and placed her fist on her hip, grinning happily as she looked around, happily speaking to the crowd. "How's it going, everyone? The name's Evalia, tell that to everyone y'all know."

The people in the crowd began talking amongst themselves, and some of them began asking questions. Most of them were about where she suddenly came from and who she was, and there were even a few lonely guys asking to marry her, but Evalia was only waiting for one question, for which she has been showing her Guitar and Eisen's sigil on it openly, trying to get people to pay attention to it.

"Where did you get that guitar?" A young girl, seemingly an aspiring musician or bard herself, asked excitedly as she stared at the instrument that Evalia was holding.

With a grin on her face, Evalia looked over to Komer and winked at him, making his heart skip a beat. "Well, how funny you may ask! You may not be able to get a hold of a guitar such as mine, but y'all can be sure you can find other amazin' items made by the same craftsman right next to me. Komer, right? You want to say something as well?" Evalia asked with a smile, and the young man jumped up immediately where he was sitting and began stuttering at the crowd that was completely staring at him.

From Around the Web

"Hello there! Please enjoy all of these great items that you can only find through my... erm..." Komer suddenly became nervous, since he actually didn't decide on a name for his Merchant Company yet. He managed to get his top choices reserved, but in the end, he didn't choose yet since it usually would have taken a while to get enough attention to announce it. But right now, thanks to Evalia, he managed to skip right toward that step! Now he only needed to decide on what to call his company. There was one name that he liked the most, but he was feeling kind of embarrassed and was just generally unsure if he should use it, since it seemed kind of childish to him. It was the name of the company that he made up as a child, and that he and his childhood friends wanted to found together. He sighed loudly and then simply went through with it in the end. "Through my 'Starlight Company'! We currently am the only one that has access to this amazing craftsman's items!"

Basically instantly, everyone in the crowd was trying to get to the front in order to be able to buy any one of the items that were on display.

And within only an hour, all of the items were sold, and Komer was speechlessly standing on the empty blanket, staring down at his feet in disbelief, then looked over to those two amazing people talking by the side of the carriage after everything cleared up. Eisen and Evalia.
