Amalgar Forest.

"Your input has been appreciated." The player War Tiger responded still in the low-growl, as if reading lines from a book. Equally spaced words. The Neko's animated expressions only made it more obvious. His eyes darted only slightly to remember her features, her skin pattern -like a scan but otherwise remained still. Usually people would exchange names or IDs at this point of time, but he seemed unresponsive to the cue and continued memorizing her appearance .


Then another voice spoke, distracted, his head craned appropriately to the right.

"I need a Soul."

"You talk. You're a player." Oblivious to the fact that he was stating the obvious, he seemed otherwise unfazed that the gryphon was speaking, which was not common by any means. Monsters didn't usually speak unless they were intelligent, like rogue wizards or other sentient NPCs. Not to mention a gryphon being in a low-level area like the City of Fate.

"Your input has been appreciated." He repeated once more to Nightmare, taking out a copper coin from his pocket and closing it in her palm with his large right hand. Logically, Effort beget Reward. It was only mandatory.

Then he took two steps back and looked beyond the bridge, all the while still wearing the same stern expression. But it seemed like he had somewhere new to go now.
