So--I heard there was a way to trade with the deities to get back things we lost or things we want. I don't have much to trade...but I'd like to figure out as much about it as I can.

I've had enough with deals that are too good to be true, after all. Are they fair? Do they really work? Could someone on the network tell me...?

I think it'd be safer to see if someone else can do it before turning to the deities. You never know what they may want in return.

[20trinkets]

Ah--could someone in the city give me my voice back?

[roseblooms]

That depends... how did you lose it?

[ooc; Wait till she recognizes who she's talking to x) ]

[20trinkets]

Well, you see, I sort of made another trade with my voice back home. Only now I can't go back so...I'd like to find a way to get it back here.

[roseblooms]

A trade... so it can't have been surgical. Hmm... you know, there could be a spell for that, if you'd like me to look it up. What did you trade your voice for?

[20trinkets]

Really? Oh, thank you so much--ah, it must sound strange...I used to live underwater. I traded my voice to go up on land...

!

[roseblooms]

Underwater... are you...

Are you an ocean-dweller? Like a mermaid, or a sprite? Ah, do forgive me, my name is Megumi!

[20trinkets]

Yeah, that'd be me! It's nice to meet you, Miss Megumi. I'm Ariel.

[roseblooms]

Ariel-- Like the one in that-- oh goodness, that Ariel?! Eeek!

[roseblooms]

So... you have legs now, right? Then...

I think I can help you, Ariel. I need to research a bit, but I think it'd be easy to restore your voice...

But I'd have to take away part of your trade. Don't worry, I think there's a way to have you walk on land, and still have a voice. Just let me look for it, alright?

[20trinkets]

I do! And luckily, they haven't gone away.

--?!? Really? Oh, thank you! Thank you so much! I don't know how I could ever repay you--but thank y--

...Ahh, I understand. Take as much time as you want, I really, really appreciate it.

[roseblooms]

I'm more than happy to be able to help! I just hope it'll be of some use to you, in the long run!

[ooc; What Meg CAN do is trade off her ability to be human in water, think Splash XD So she can have her voice, but she'll get a mermaid tail if she submerges in water. ]

[20trinkets]

It will, trust me! It'll be a great help.

[ooc; Ooh, that works perfectly *_*! Also I'm so sorry this is late, like...yahoo stopped sending me notifs for the longest time.]
