Setting

-- Resident of The Phantom QuarterIt was a deathly darkness that was so commonplace for Lutetia's nightlife that surrounded them. The putrid air of the Phantom Quarter was hardly anything one wished to tolerate for very long, what with epidemic plague lingering about the atmosphere. The buildings were wretched in appearance, sporting broken outer portions and decaying interior; truly a testament to Lutetia City's infamous legacy. The rancid smell was the crux of the entire locale: it was a scent that could only be compared to the stench of a thousand corpses left to ferment in a sauna, a rather hot stink that burned the sinuses upon contact.

"...then she must have some degree of great power. What do you know about this woman? A name or description perhaps?" Aldous had to press hard for the facts. For all he knew, this man could be lying straight to his face, and using some woman that he supposedly was not able to interact with on this plane of existence as cover for his own horrendous crimes.
"Any information you have will be highly useful."
“If you are seeking any information, I can say much about this Witch,” she pauses in thought for a few moments before replying, “It isn’t uncommon to hear many bad happenings revolving around this Sorceress. Mind you, it was she who shrunk ‘me’ down to begin with”
Pulling out a piece of paper from her satchel, she quickly runs towards a man she supposed was Aldous, and tried to get his attention by waving the piece of paper frantically around in the air, “May you read this, for I believe it can tell you what is needed”
Written in bold words across the piece of paper, it reads ‘”Northern, Terra: Criminal search for Sorceress unknown to authorities since last winter’” and for this reason, she hoped it was a clue to the Witches whereabouts.
"Look." he pointed, watching the girl run over to Aldous. He moved over and plucked the sheet of paper from her tiny hands. He looked over it, and read the words written aloud. He then passed the paper over to Aldous.
"Looks like we've got an adventure on our hands. I'm down." His lips stretched into a mischievous smile.
Suddenly turning her attention towards Rowan, she waved him forwards in the intent of starting a conversation with the man aimed more towards a decent face-to-face chat instead of an intimidating conversation (from her point of view) with the increasing hope of somehow being invited to join in on the Adventure.
“’Ello, Mister is it possible that you can get down to my eye-level?” Celiara calls out with burning lungs “I can’t find anything to climb up on!”
Zeban was starting to come around he could tell Aldous more but that would just be leading the bloke down a road he couldn't bear to send him. "Let's not talk about her alright she isn't any threat you, or this city."
"Now about what happened here let's talk about that and help the little lass about her Witch Problems."
"Look, I've been trying to find this Sorceress for most my life. Any help will do, really"
Walking closer towards Adlous, she keeps her expression firm before waiting in the hope of any response.
"What can y'all tell me?" he asked.
