[See James...and a one horned demon, standing outside a newly painted front door. Above it reads The Coffee Joint and both are grinning.]

Hello Ruby City! [And Lukas waves.] This video is to tell you that a new store as open in town. And although we're called The Coffee Joint, we don't just sell coffee.

James - I'll be sending a drone to your location by noon today with your items. Feel free to review all items to ensure you've received everything before sending the drone back to the apartments.
