----------------Bazyli + Kairy + Wes + Zuko + Razuna----------------
"Alright, I've queued up those equipment. What else would you like?" Asks the shopkeeper.
"I'll buy an iron hatchet. I'd also like for you to make me a Ferall leather armor set with these pelts" Kairy says, taking three pelts and 50 CEIL from Wes.
"Also, can you supplement it with either Moonscale or Sanguine crystal? I could care less which." Kairy states.
"Right away! Here's the hatchet, that'll be 50 CEIL." After the transaction he says "I'll use moonscale. It's an easy material to work with, should be done quickly."
Zuko states "We're going to the antique shop, Kairy you can wait here. Razuna you can-"
As he tries to say this, Razuna leaves the shop and states "I'm going to the forest."
"-can go to the forest.... hm...."
"I'll go with him!" states Bazyli, who quickly picks up the pace.
With this said, Wes and Zuko leave for the shop, taking some enchanting stuff and the mining spoils with them. Wes, knowing they don't have much money, leaves Kairy with 100 more CEIL. "We'll be back, make sure the armor gets done!" Is Wes' parting words.
"Anything else?" Asks the shopkeeper.

----------------Wes + Zuko----------------
After separating from the group, you two grab some supplies and head over to the antique shop. Inside is a simple round room with an odd table covered in a fine and expensive looking cloth. Below the table is a fire! Or so you assume, it's glowing a real weird grey.
The fire also isn't spreading, it's stationary below the table and the wooden room is far from catching.
There are a few chests in the back of the room and a door, but before you two can observe anymore, from the door appears a lovely young woman! She's dressed with a purple robe, golden necklace and an acolyte cowl. He hair is long an brown, her eyes blue. She walks towards you, staying behind the odd table, and asks
"How can I help you?"
"Well, you can help me know your name." Asks Zuko
"I'm called Renae, do wish for an enchantment? Or perhaps some antiques?" She asks afterwards.
"Ah yes, quite! Zuko here wanted an enchantment, yes indeed! Oh, but before I, Wes, forget, we have some jewels we'd like to sell! A ruby and two topaz, how much?" Wes asks as he shows her the jewels.
"Oh! These are very pretty, I'm sure my mentor would love them. This is the price she'd pay for them, I'm sure." As she says this she hands Wes 1000 CEIL!
"So, what is that you want enchanted, sir?" She asks Zuko.
After a few moments pause, Zuko shakes his head slightly as if waking up and says
"Oh, well, you've already enchanted me, how about my weapon?"
She blushes and asks "What kind of enchant would you like? If you don't have the runes or essence I've got some for sale."
(I realized Zuko never even met a young lady he could flirt with. I had to fix that.)

----------------Razuna + Bazyli----------------

After walking out on the group, you walk through a large, wealthy crowd and enter the path to the forest. Before you can enter, you're greeted by a hunting party-they've managed to slay 50 Feralls and 5 Bears, you can tell by the pelts.
"Going hunting again I see? I thought you'd learn your lesson. Those feralls not enough then, buddy?" Is one of the hunter's hostile reply.
There are seven hunters around a cart carrying all the pelts. They appear to be low on ammo, and are equip with crossbows and regular bows.
"Watch out, he might try to beat you with his iron sticks."
"Uh-oh, it's a child! Better watch out!"
They're incredibly... mean, for some reason.

--------------Kairy--------------
"Oh! Actually sir, I've decided on a sanguine crystal addition instead of the moonscale for my armor. Also, I have 100 Murkal scales here, would you like to buy them?"
"More Murkal scales, eh? Very well, for those I'll pay 100 CEIL, I can make two armor sets with these, after all." after the transaction, Kairy states "Oh! I'd like another bundle of Quartzine bolts as well."
30 CEIL and a bundle of 10 more bolts passed hands, and soon Kairy had nothing more to ask.
"I'll be back for the equipment." Is her parting word as she leaves the shop.
Suddenly, her stomach made a loud growl and realized that she, and most likely her group, hadn't eaten all day! Kairy is now Hungry.

Knowing they'll also need some food for the tomb, Kairy heads to the inn to purchase food for the trip, and to sate her appetite. Upon entering, she's greeted by the white mage, who was about to leave the inn.
"Ah! It's you, have you gotten the rest of the money?" She asks. Good to know she cares about your health...
"Indeed, here's the other 100." You say. After taking the pay she says
"By the way, I don't appreciate your lies! Telling me an old man you have a grudge with is a demon... shameful! You're lucky I don't smite YOU. Now if you could tell me the true identity of what defiled you, so I can actually get to work!"
Great, she knows you lied.
"Well? Out with it!"

--------------Zuko + Wes--------------
"Well, we sell essence for twen- er, ten CEIL each. Runes will cost you si- er, forty. Yes, ten and forty." She replies hastily.
You reply "Alright then, so how much would a Demoni-Fire-Force enchant cost?"
"O-oh! That's an intricate enchantment, my skills limit me to simple ones. If you want an intricate enchant I can go get my mentor, she can help you. Oh, uh, here I'll sell you the runes you'll need now... it'll add up to 360 CEIL."
She hands over 3 Demoni 2 Fire 1 Force Rune(s) and 6 Demoni 4 fire 2 Force Essence.
Wes gives her 360 CEIl in return, leaving Wes with 795 left.
"Hey, before you get your mentor could you perhaps do a simple enchant on my longsword with water? I already have the required materials in 1 water rune and 2 water essence."
"Of course, sir...this will cost 60 CEIL conidering you have the needed materials.... hand them over, please?" Renae asks.
"Of course, here." Wes hands her 60 ceil and his longsword.
She places the longsword across the table and throws the rune into the fire!
It take Zuko by surprise, who takes a step back. The fire glows a mystical deep blue! Taking water essence in each hand Renae closes her eyes and declares the phrase "Aquilus! Coalesce Synthis! Operen!"
Her eyes glow the same color as the fire as she places her hands mere centimeters above the longsword.
"Hi-yaaaah!" Renae cries as a quick flash of light radiates from her!
Soon, the fire grows grey again and Renae turns to normal. The essences are gone, instead the longsword glows a faint blue.
Breathing slightly heavily, Renae says "*Sigh* Well, I'll go get my mentor for you. Please, wait here..." Taking a deep breath, she stands a bit shakily and goes through the door.
"Would you look at this! Ha, the lass did it! Quite remarkable, I'd say. This will come in very handy slaying all matter of fiery beasts, wouldn't you agree Zuko?"
Before Zuko could tell Wes to be quiet for a momentt, a very old, short, and wrinkly woman enters the room. Renae is about to come with her but the hag demands her to go rest now. Renae agrees and disappears from view, but not without a quick glance at Zuko.
"So, I see you want an intricate enchant, do you have the materials? Otherwise the cost would be great." The old woman states.
"Yes indeed, here they are. If you could enchant this sword I'd appreciate it."
Zuko presents to her his weapon and the materials, The hag remarks sharply "Onyx, is it? Well, guess that explains your demonic energies. I'm not too fond of demons, young man but for you I'll make an exception. If I catch you murdering anybody with this I'll smite you."
"Nice to meet you too, miss...?"
"Hmph. I'm Haeyuna. Now, let's get on with this enchant. It'll be 500 CEIL, got it?"
Wes states, before Zuko could comment on the seemingly increased price, "Wes, I have the amount. Good thing we found those jewels, right Zuko? Now we can afford this!"
Wes hands the money to Haeyuna, who quicky throws the demoni runes into the fire, which flares up and almost envelopes the table! The fire glows a menacing black as Haeyuna's eyes glow the same as the fire. Essences divided between her hands, she infuses them with the worn out enchantments of the original. She then quickly grabs the fire runes and throws them into the black fire, which turns into a very dark red! Haeyuna's eyes mimic this as she takes the fire essence in hand. weaving it and infusing it within the demoni and fire enchant that already inhabited the sword. Finally, she grabs the force rune and throws it into the fire, changing it into a slightly orange dark red, her eyes perfectly mimicing this color.
With the rest of the essence she applies it to the sword, and with the phrase
"Demonic, Fiera, Foo-rae! Coalesce Synthis! Operen!" a flash of light occurs, the fire return to it's low and grey state, and Zuko's sword is steadily glowing with it's enchant.
"Ah! Thanks, this is a beautiful enchant!" States Zuko, eagerly grasping his sword and sheathing it.
"There, now is there anything else? If not, I can no longer be of service to you."
Haeyuna states.
"Well, we have this balgroth core and we-" zuko begins, but is cut off by Haeyuna
"Ah! A monster core? Yes indeed I'll buy that from you!"
She hands Zuko 200 CEIL in exchange for the Balgroth core.

--------------Razuna + Bazyli--------------
Insult them. 6!
Razuna, annoyed by the cocky men, deliver what may be the most derogatory, hateful, harmful, and volatile insult known to man.
The men, caught by surprise from this atrocity, all stagger and make way unwittingly. Both Bazyli and Razuna continue to walk as the dumbfounded hunters simply stared.
With them at their backs, Razuna and Bazyli are now standing in the woods.
Remind me why again?
