“I see…â€
Â
Even though Midna was supposed to feel upset about the current turn of events, she wasn't as she had noticed something when the Hyur locked eyes with the Miqo'te. Her expression had very suddenly switched from fright to relief and confidence. Even the tone of her voice had changed.
Â
'How intriguing... Is my face that scary looking for her to be so wary of me? And how does she have such nice hair, I really want to know what she uses to keep it in this state with all the sand around- wait no, focus myself! I’ll think of that once I’m out of this place.' She thought, now was not the time to think about trivial details. The elezen was in a tight spot and the presence of the cat girl wearing a bow limited the choices she could make to make the Hyur agree to go with her.
Â
Midna wasn’t one to give up easily and started searching the proper solution for her troublesome situation while trying to ignore the heat. Catching the hyur’s interest was the current problem, as she clearly didn’t want to even visit the alchemy guild. The first thing the elezen did was to analyze the hyur. Aside from her beauty, her clothes were far from being expensive looking. The basket full of ingredients was clearly showing that the girl wasn’t somebody wealthy like some of the merchants she saw before whom liked to show off their various accessories made of gold. Not wealthy, but she didn’t look like she was too poor either as she did have the money to buy food.
Â
‘Interest… She was interested by those jewels.’ Midna took a quick glance at the merchant’s stall and saw the prices. The elezen wasn’t a big spender and had mostly used a small amount of money so far, only for necessary food, clothes and the occasional makeup tools, she tried to get as many ingredients she needed by herself to make her own potions as well. Not only was it of better quality half of the time but it also made her spare lots of gils in the long run.
Â
‘If I negotiate correctly I shouldn’t have a problem with the prices, most of the stuff there is affordable… Aside from the very expensive stones in the back. I’ll have to count on my luck on this one.’ She thought as she had finished her plan. She had always appreciated the fact that she had inherited quick thinking from her mother, it had been useful in many occasions in her life.
She might have been a bit too slow as she only noticed now that they were talking about going back to the Quicksands.
Â
“Hold up miss! I have a deal that might interest you. I know you’re not interested in alchemy but how about just taking a look at the place; that might give you an interest in the trade. In exchange, I’ll buy you something from the stall you had your eyes on before. †She said, hinting at the display of jewelry. “You’re free to choose what you want me to buy as well. Oh and miss archer can come with you if you wish her to.â€
Â
While there was the fact that this might hurt her wallet more than she had expected to spend in two or three weeks, it was worth the price of escaping the heat for today. She wouldn’t need to go out of the guild for the rest of the month once the apprentices were done wandering the market with various objectives. And who knows, maybe she’ll learn how the secret to the hyur’s smooth hair if she was lucky.
