One theft

[vile_queen]

[The writing is elegant, script. There’s curly lines and flourishes.]Forgive me for asking what likely has been asked before, but as we are in a tree in a bowl, living on islands that float and within its branches, why are all the job opportunities so mundane? I mean no insult to those who are employed, but it is a wonder that none of thought out

[here you go, Mona Lisa, have scratchy but neat handwriting that may seem familiar.] I don't mind the floating islands myself, makes a change from any world I know. [there's a few squiggles and doodles before writing resumes.] Still, if you want something less mundane, you could try the Scavengers or Adventurers. I suppose it depends on what you prefer and what would suit you. [more doodles, this time of a sword, shield, and a helmet.]

But I'm being rude. I'm Book, I run the bookstore. Who might you be, miss?

[It does look familiar, but so have a few things, and she's getting confused by all of this.]

Scavengers or Adventurers. Perhaps. Is everything the Scavengers gather discarded?

I am Mona Lisa. Greetings, Book.

Nice to meet you, Mona Lisa. Scavengers are responsible for finding things that could be useful in some way, and they work with Adventurers sometimes. I suppose it's a good job for those who like to work with their hands, or are simply very very curious.

[vile_queen]

It is nice to meet you too.

Curious. That is one word that could describe what I am. Let us say that perhaps another one would be ambitious. What jobs would that lead to?

[books_and_toads]

Ambitious is good for any job. Again, Adventurer, Scavenger, or perhaps the Watch. As the saying goes, poke around and see what suits you.

[vile_queen]

Is it. A fascinating opinion, Book. I shall indeed proceed to poke around.
