Andrew
"Haven't heard?"*She asked with a smirk beneath her mask.*"All the issues going on with the empire. I guess it's no concern of the Warlords however."*She gave a shrug.*
Cynthia
"What issues?" *Ellena was clearly clueless on the current topic*
Andrew
"Anyone's guess."*She says casually.*"I suppose some thing's have just been going on in the empire that's got them sitting on the brink of war right now. Stuff being intercepted, rumors, it's beyond me really."
Cynthia
"Huh... Well I hope there isnt a war. That would suck... What do we even do in a war?"
Andrew
"Fight. Try to come out on top. Similar to these tournaments, except putting your life at stake for something you may or may not believe in. It's what the mercenaries usually do isn't it?"
Cynthia
"Why would I risk my life for something I don't believe in? I'm new to this whole mercenary thing. I just need some money to support my shop, that's all"
Andrew
*She raised an eyebrow as the woman mentioned trying out the mercenary work for the money. How curious.*"Figured most were in it for the money. Pays plenty and holds a lot of value to where some would risk their lives for it."
Cynthia
"Money isn't worth risking my life. But I'm not going to be scared of death either to stop me from reaching my dreams. If I die, meh. Wasnt meant to be I guess"
Andrew
*She lets out a snort of amusement.*"So accepting of your fate aren't you?"*The Naga asked her.*
Cynthia
"Why not. We all die eventually. It's all about what you do before then" *Ellena seemed pretty easy going. Not much fear or though to it* "How about you. After the money too?"
Andrew
"Not in particularly."*She answers.*"My business here runs deeper than that, but nothing real interesting. If you are looking to be paid though could maybe help you out with that."
Cynthia
"Oh?" *Ellena asked raisun a brow* "What's the job?"
Andrew
"A bit of behind the scenes work mostly. As I said, there's been a bit of issues going on in the empire. The job is to find out what and fix it."
Cynthia
"I like fixing thing... I am a black Smith after all" *Ellena laughed a bit before shaking her head* "Anyway. I must be going now. I trust you'll find me when it comes down to the job... I'm hard to miss"
Andrew
"Indeed..."*She says slowly.*"Till then. I'll catch you in the next battle."*The Naga turned to leave and gradually began heading back off into the crowds.*
Cynthia
*Ellena waved off to kapri, before turning and walking into another person*
