The Hihijewa Spire - Topmost Floor - Night - The city of Ul’dah gleamed in the darkness, the Hihijewa Spire glimmered in the night, as figures could be seen moving about.
Within the lower floors of the spire, were one of the many parties hosted by her mother, a persistent socialite in Monetarist circles. Here the wealthy partook of cuisine and rumor in equal measure, Hihisa gracefully stroll through the gathering. She skillfully maneuvered between group to group, greeting and acknowledging individuals of import. Finally, she made her way to one of the private rooms bordering the ballroom, where her rumor circle gathered, “…and they say Dederu won’t leave her manor…, whatever happened up north must have scarred her, Oh. Hihisa!â€, her friend, Iququ Iqu, fellow scion of a board member of the Platinum Mirage waved at Hihisa in greeting. “Hello Iququ. How goes your father.†Iququ frowned slightly, “Ever since that whole Scions business, the Mirage has been under scrutiny, but father managed to secure enough favors and assets to ensure our family investments remains viable.â€Â
Hihisa nods and gives Iququ a smirk, “If you require assistance, remember that you have friends here, Iququ.†A collective giggle emerged from the other ladies around the room, as Iququ blushed and smiled happily. The nearby maid brought forth a chair and Hihisa helped herself up on it. Her blonde, black-tinged pigtails flop behind her as she sat at her place in the private room; the others returned to their gossip and rumormongering as Hihisa listened. Eventually… “So Hihisa, what have you heard about this Chocobo?†Hihisa opened her eyes and snuggly smiled at her fellow Ul’dahian scions. “I have learned of a few interesting snippets here and there. It appears this old relic has attracted a certain amount of interest from poor and wealthy alike.â€
