[OOM] Mirror plot III.

[stuck_mynock]

The city which Will and Atton land in looks almost deserted. A closer look, once they get out of the shuttle, reveals otherwise - it's not deserted, it's just that everyone's locked themselves up in their houses.

"This place stinks of fear," Atton says, brightly, sniffing the air.

"Are they 'fraid o'ye?"

This feels oddly familiar once again so Will keeps his hand close to his sword.

[stuck_mynock]

"Maybe. At least it means we won't get any hassle from them, right?"

[will_scarlett]

"Aye but also might be 'arder to find what ye're lookin' for."

[stuck_mynock]

"I wouldn't worry about that."

[will_scarlett]

"Ye know 'ow to find it?"

[stuck_mynock]

"Yep."

[will_scarlett]

Will just nods and keeps looking around the city.

[stuck_mynock]

"This isn't the first time I've been here. When I came before, they hadn't found what I was looking for, so I told them to keep searching until they did."

[will_scarlett]

"Did they say they've found it then?"

[stuck_mynock]

"They did."

[will_scarlett]

"Aye, that's good."

[stuck_mynock]

"For us."

[will_scarlett]

"Why's it na good for 'em?"

[stuck_mynock]

"It's not necessarily bad. I did promise them safety if they found it for me."

[will_scarlett]

"That's good o'ye."

[stuck_mynock]

"It's practical."
