*Since she doesn't know much about uzhi's physiology, aside from their slime-like physique, it's understandable that she's intrigued when Yughotta mentioned his unusual skin colour. Pinkish, similar to that of cherry blossom leaves on Runra. Possibly one of the rarest colours that could manifest on a person's hair, eyes, or any of their body parts. 'People are afraid of the unknown.' Oftentimes, such a difference would lead to an unavoidable place where you stood alone. The eyes of those around you are drawn curiously towards yourself, like you are not one of their own.*
 
"I see, I see."
 
*From the way he described that part of himself though, fortunately, it seems that Yughotta doesn't face that kind of predicament often in his past. She listened to the rest of his answer, regarding his fascination with law, his travels, and the purpose of it. Nodding in agreement as he brought up the importance of connections, she turned her face to look at him, as in turn he asked about what leads her steps towards this city. Akasha took a moment to ponder. Her gaze shifted once again to the road. However, her eyes seemed to be focused on things that are not in front of her— rather, something far, far away.*
 
"I'm from Middle Mentia. Maybe my outfit makes it seem like I'm a mage or scholar.. Though that's technically not wrong, in a way. But I would introduce myself as a priestess from the House of Wisdom of Shaslandi. Currently travelling like you." *Akasha paused to gather her thoughts.*
 
"The purpose for my travel and why I'm here is to... Seek for something." *She answered simply.*
 
"We're almost there."
 
*She pulled her hand away from his elbow, and took the map out from her pocket. The said place, based on the sketch, is a building that stood on the corner of this district. It is marked with a circle, so she should know which one when she sees it.*
Kristen
*She took calm steps, seemingly trying to not create any unwarranted attention towards herself. Even so, the bustle and hustle of the streets still found a way for her to at least, turn a pair of eyes towards her direction. That is caused by a blunder in leading her direction to evade the human's traffic, her shoulder bumped into a passerby. Her composure remains, and she simply gives her regard by glancing sideways towards the person. Part of her face is hidden under a mask.*

"Pardon."

*She said with an icy tone, striding away immediately after. Her long, black-violet hair fluttered behind as she disappeared behind the crowds.*
James
*Akasha looked up in surprise. She was too absorbed in the lora's sketch and became careless in minding her path. As a result, bumping into someone.*

"Pardon."

"Oh, I'm sor... Ry?"
 
*Before she could reply with her own sentence however, the person had already walked away. Though, whoever that figure was, she had made a little bit of an impression on Akasha because of the peculiar mask that covered half of her face. She looked at the direction where the woman disappeared briefly, appearing to ponder about something. Returning her attention to the road before her, she continued her walk with the uzhi. After a short while, they arrived on the premise where the supposed 'errand' should be undertaken. For one, the building looks quite.. Normal, if unremarkable.*

"It says that it would be here." *She said to Yughotta.*
 
"Do you think we should go right inside?
Julia
"The house of Wisdom of Shaslandi. That's a mouthful and I'm sure I'll eventually learn what it means."
*He appreciated her being nice to him. Usually that didn't happen as much with how he presented himself. He eyed the person who bumped into her.*
"Man, more and more these days I see people wearing masks, and I gotta say, they aren't the friendly type."
*He was used to working hustles a couple years ago so he knows a bit about this stuff.*
"Hey, do me a favor and check your stuff. It's a common pickpocket trick to bump into people."
*He looks around a bit skeptically.*
"Hmmm... Yeah, let's go inside, looks nicer in there than out here."
James
"Hey, do me a favor and check your stuff. It's a common pickpocket trick to bump into people."
 
*Yughotta's words make sense. It's a common trope for pickpockets to bump into someone in a crowd, grabbing their things unnoticed before turning tail and disappearing. She checked herself if everything was present, and fortunately, there seems to be nothing missing.*
 
"Hmmm... Yeah, let's go inside, looks nicer in there than out here."
 
"Mm.."
 
*She gave out a little hesitant answer, then knocked on the door of the green building. She wonders, what kind of errand would they do here, and what is the lora's connection with whoever is the resident of this building. Then, Akasha entered in anticipation, slightly nervous.*
Ann
*They would enter the building, where they would see a midorite organizing stuff in the back. He'd pay no attention to the guests, other than to tell Uku and Akasha to not touch anything. The place is a mess, quite honestly, lots of paper, quills, and ink bottles. Uku notices that the paper dotted around here are contracts, unfinished contracts, though. He wouldn't know what specifically what they were for, at a glance at least, but it looks like the midorite is a Contract Specialist.*

*Looks like the two has to talk to the midorite first, since it looks like that he's rather invested in what he's doing to pay them any mind.*
Julia
*He looks around admiring the contracts. He was a fan of making them and studying them so he'd give them a quick glance over.*
"Seems like a contract specialist's office."
*He would say to the side toward Akasha. He'd walk forward a little.*
"Hey, buddy, it's a bit of a paper tornado over here. You mind coming over to help us find something?"
*He would wave the midorite over and speak to Akasha on the side again, quietly.*
"Just ask them about the Lora when they come over. Keep it casual, we still don't know what we could be in for."
James
*The first thing that she noticed when entering is the messy nature of the place. Looking at the various writing instruments that strewn about, she wondered if this place is an office of a scribe of some kind. On the back of the room, the back of short, green skinned midorite can be seen. Different from an uzhi like her hired advisor, she had seen midorites in the places where she had travelled before.*
 
He'd pay no attention to the guests, other than to tell Uku and Akasha to not touch anything.
 
*Minding her steps, as her feet almost stepped on one of the paper that fell on the floor, she caught a glimpse of its content. Akasha is by no means a specialist in trades, but she would recognize a contract when she sees one. After all, the knowledge of contract making is vital for summoning creatures.*
 
"Seems like a contract specialist's office.
 
"Mhm."
 
*She nodded to Yughotta, but raised one of her eyebrows afterwards, as he talked to the midorite. Finding something? That objective doesn't ring a bell in her mind. Don't they come here to finish whatever errand the lora is telling them to do? She thought. After he whispered the next sentence to her, she finally understood what he meant. She decided to follow the suggestion of the uzhi.*
 
*"Okay Akasha, be casual." She muttered inside her mind.*
 
"Good day- I mean, hey, how's it going... Si- buddy? Um, do you have some time? We wis- want, to talk about a certain lora and his errand. That lora, uh.."
 
*"Ugh, why didn't I ask that old man's name earlier?" She reprimanded herself quietly.*
Ann
*The midorite would sigh, noticeably loud, then a few crashes would occur.*

"Good day- I mean, hey, how's it going... Si- buddy? Um, do you have some time? We wis- want, to talk about a certain lora and his errand. That lora, uh.."

**Oh... That scammer of a lora? He sent you here to get me to consider reversing my decision about not writing any contracts for him? Fat chance, the last time he wanted a contract wrote, the terms were an absolute scam. Being a contract specialist who writes contracts for scammers like him would be a disaster for my reputation** *The midorite would hastily speak, he'd then start shooing away the two guests (you guys).*

*He wouldn't shoo them outside the building, but it was made clear that he'd rather not do any deals with people who associate with the lora. You two would still not know the lora's name, unfortunately, which would make conversations a little more awkward.*
