An Auri female snaps her pocket watch closed before peering back at the bustling pier behind her. She finds great comfort in the salted air as she leisurely paces through the crowd while making it a point to hold on to her coin pouch. Too many run-ins with the local street urchins has taught her that one can never be too careful.
Mia inclines her head in curiosity as a booth labeled "Marisa's Shop" seems to be drawing quite the crowd. Squeezing herself between two tall Elezen women, she offers a polite nod to them both before perusing the wares. There was certainly a plethora of peculiar items and as she was about to turn away to take her leave, a sparkling red catches the corner of her eye. She picks up a crystallized crimson lotus that fit into the palm of her hand and in the center of it was a slot for incense. Turning to the young miss inside the booth she asks politely, "You must be Marisa! How much for this and how did you come across such fine work?"
