Chris nodded. "One world map coming right up" He said. Vines began to rise from the ground, curling around his waist. It lifted him into the air, then shot him forward, right behind the large convenience store. He walked around the side of the building and entered through the front. They appeared to have no world maps around the isles, so he would have to ask the shop keeper.

"Do you happen to have a world map that I could buy? I'll be willing to pay anything for it" He asked the keeper. With a small frown, the man held up a finger and ducked down, searching through the small shelves built into the counter. He pulled out a piece of paper and handed it to Chris, then held out his hand. "That'll be £30" The man. Chris looked at him like a second head had just emerged from his neck. "Fine, whatever" Chris muttered.

After hesitantly handing over the money, Chris exited the shop and made his way back to the hotel. He slammed the map on the ground at Erieda's feet, then stood in the doorway, incoherently muttering about the price of the map.

Alex stood back as Layla awoke and asked his identity. "I'm Alex, Theresea's close friend" He said simply. She claimed he was her hero and he let out a roar of laughter. "Sure, your hero," He said almost inaudibly, "You just get some rest, I'll have Erieda come and tend to your wounds as soon as she's finished with her search for Belle's current location. For now, is there anything I can do for you?".
