SHADES LIGHTER;

[A year ago, if you'd asked Haru what she would be doing to make money in El Nysa, "running errands for a brothel" wouldn't have made the list. But it's been a year since she's arrived, and the brothel seems reputable enough, and...

...well, a girl's gotta eat.

She's not smuggling anything illegal - not yet - but she is dropping off a packet of incense sticks when she gets called into another room. When she heads in, there's someone else waiting (that's you!) and they're both asked to handle a pickup of something slightly less than legal.

She sneaks a glance at the other would-be delivery person.]

...shall we?

LULLABY FOR THE DRAGONS;

[Haru, for her part, doesn't look all that concerned as she heads into the Undergrowth. This is a two-person job (she's sure if they couldn't handle it with just two, they'd have been told to bring along someone else), and... well, there's two of them. What's to be concerned about?

Besides, in the event they do run into something dangerous, she's got an axe.

Still... it is, perhaps, a little nerve-wracking. She glances to the side to check on her partner, just to make sure she's not dragging them in somewhere they're not comfortable going.]

How are you holding up?

RISE OF THE RYDERS;

[honestly i need someone to tag this prompt solely so they can eventually good-cop-bad-cop one of rasyc's buddies. ANYWAY.

Speaking of Rasyc's buddies! One of them is... making a run for it. Maybe you're working with Haru already or maybe you're just some innocent bystander trying to make your way down the street without getting mowed down by a fleeing criminal and the axe-wielding girl in pursuit of him. Either way, Haru's calling out for help as he heads your way--]

Stop that man! I need to speak with him!

TUNDRA LIFE;

[Okay so literally all we have to do for this quest is come up with flora/fauna and submit it but you know what, there's fun to be had in expeditions.

SO. Here's Haru. Here's Haru as bundled up as can be, gathering supplies and getting ready to head out into the cold, icy tundras. Luckily, it's easier to dress for the weather when you shop in Nadril first - getting frostbite isn't on her list of "fun things to do".]

What would you like to look for first? [HELLO FRIEND. You've got a tag-along because safety in numbers, and all.] I confess, my expertise lies with plants, but observing animals shouldn't be too difficult if we manage to find any...

CELESTIAL KNOWLEDGE;

[It's not really... that bad, Haru tells herself.

Nadril has a junkyard because the people aren't using the technology here. And much of it is junk, but if they've chosen to throw away something that works - well, can anyone blame her for salvaging it to bring to Cree? She's sure he had something else in mind when he put out the call for people to bring Nadril and Natha technology to him, but...

If they can make it work and pretty it up a bit, what Cree doesn't know won't hurt him.]

What do you think? [She glances over at her partner in dumpster-diving crime.] Does anything look promising to you?
