"Is that so.."
 
*She exhaled, disappointed that they would need to search in blind. Though, maybe 'blind' is not the right word to describe it, as they knew that the contacts should possess a degree of relationship with the lora. Searching with one eye closed would be a better metaphor. She couldn't blame Tiltinwilkin on this, on the other hand, her image of him is getting better instead. Now she knows that he's not the type to snoop around on his contractors' privacy just for the sake of it. Well, at least they know his race.*
 
"Mm, we should be able to work with this much. Thanks again!" *She smiled warmly at him, then turned to her uzhi friend.*
 
"Hmm.. Our target is a jewel artisan mogash. So, should we depart right away?" 
 
*As she understands it, similar to the menti who lives on the eastern mountains of her birthplace, mogash also share a certain culture trait. Their intricate artisanship is well known even in her hometown, where statues of mogash creation are imported. In fact, Akasha was reminded of something when Tiltinwilkin mentioned the mogash, one aspect of their culture that she also loves personally. But that is for later. Now, Yughotta might have some things that he wanted to ask or talk about first. *

"Huh. This is starting to become a lot of work."
*He looks to Akasha.*
"Is that necklace really important to you? Or are you just willing to go around for a day doing busy work for a pretty necklace. Hey, don't get me wrong, I do this stuff all the time. I just figured maybe there's something I'm missing here."
*He looks to the Midorite.*
"Well, if you ever need someone to speak to about law, or law specifically revolving around contracts, that *Is* My specialty."
*He digs in his pocket and pulls out a little wooden card with his information burned into it. 'A Friend in Need' law offices. Including the address in the main adventuring city.*
"If you ever get in trouble, remember, Yughotta Friend."

*Akasha doesn't answer right away. Her facial expression became unreadable, as she turned her eyes away from Yughotta. After staring at the window for a few seconds, she smiled, and looked at him again.*
 
"Yes, it's important."
 
*She answered simply. It would be nice if that would suffice to satiate the uzhi's curiosity, but that wouldn't be fair would it? He had agreed to help Akasha in this matter, so it would only be right if she started filling the gaps that he doesn't know. But involving him into the deeper and.. More obscured part of the subject is quite worrying. He is a lawyer– a civilian. Telling him the whole story would be the same as dragging him into a spiral that lies far beyond the realm of their agreement. But on the other hand, not telling him anything could also result in an unpleasant outcome. It just doesn't sit right with her.*
 
"Well... Let's just say that it's more than just 'a pretty necklace.'" *She said carefully.*
 
"If you really have to know, I'll tell you about it when we obtained the necklace. Let's go then. It'll be the best if we can wrap this up while the day is still bright."
 
*Without waiting for a response, she walked towards the direction of the door. Their destination is the district where many immigrant mogash resides. Based on the map, then they would need to follow the direction of these streets to the south. Opening the door, she waited for her advisor to follow.*
