[Alynx's point of view]

I had the left my soon to be former office of the PCB News as a social media marketing manager disgraced for my enthusiasm. What was even wrong with having the enthusiasm in the workplace if my boss told me that enthusiasm leads to bad quality.

And so as I continued to walk around. I knew that from past experiences going abroad from two weeks ago that shop stalls in both Steamburg and Lowland have all kinds allowed to sell for low commission.

So I was to a little known blind spot in psychic City where there were three people walking past feeling down from something.

The pirate was talking to the other two who looked like lumberjack and a potion brewer.
"...Aye can't believe that they denied us the rights to sell anything here, even for scraping it."
Wait! They weren't allowed to sell anything? Now I know that Boris Jension is practically a greedy overlord that wants to protect the economy, but as far as to ban certain people from selling?!

I couldn't hold it much longer. I knew that because I lost my job 10 minutes ago that if my parents find out, I'll be put under the community's deprivation of liberty.

I turned to them, who I thought was thinking of what to do next wand decided to help.

[Katelin's point of view]
We were feeling down because we had an opportunity, but Boris had taken it away.

Arbour didn't feel confident in what to do while Sebun was fuming because he was looking forward to selling his 'booty'.

Sebun;"Yes arr, if only we had a chance, we wood of had been a part of the economy."

???:"Maybe you can."

We all turned around to see her:

Sebun asked:"What in Yar hell are you doing here yar punk!"She just shrugged off Sebun's comment like she was used to it and spoke

Sebun asked:"What in Yar hell are you doing here yar punk!"

She just shrugged off Sebun's comment like she was used to it and spoke.

???:"Hi, I'm Alynx, and I was formerly part of social media marketing, and I like to help."

Me and my two friends looked at each other for a moment.

I said depressingly:" You do realise that we are not allowed to sell anything inside Psychic City."

Alynx:"Whhhich is why you should do that either in Steamburg or the Lowland kingdom!"
Arbour was pessimistic with that.

Arbour:"But Alynx, we don't know where Steamburg or the Lowland kingdom is because they are places we haven't been before."

Alynx:"Which is why I'll show you tomorrow, if that's fine."

We thought about it for a moment. From the looks of Sebun, he was looking forward to exploring another place.

I asked Sebun:" You ever been to those places?"

Sebun sadly said:" No, because I never stopped to those places because I thought they would see me as a threat, so I just moved on."

To be fair, though, he has had a bad past in his former home universe. Me and Arbour both knew that from his tall tale.

Arbour seems to be fine with that. And I do think that it's nice just to explore somewhere every once in a while.

Me:" Sure, we will do. Will we meet you outside?"

Alynx:"Outside the city wall? Well, it is going to be a two day trip to there so it's best you get ready."

Alynx walked away before stopping to say:" See you on the other side tomorrow."

And with that, she left us alone...
