The courier is nowhere to be seen when the Elf makes his way downstairs, and even the old Tengu has made his way back into the kitchens. After all, with the sun rising people are going to want their breakfasts. Which just leaves one destination.<br/><br/>And somehow, the Pathfinders' Chapter House seems even more cluttered this morning than it had two days ago. Whether she wants to admit it or not, Konti is well and truly swamped- trying to research, receiving job requests, and all the other things that go hand-in-hand with being the lone representative of the Society in such a populous, busy region. Between the missing "Heir" to the Drunken Hero's bloodline, and the tumult forming off in the greenbelt to the south, Valen gets the feeling that life can really only get busier over the next few days.<br/><br/>Of course, the little blue-haired gnome is right there at her desk, hunched over some stack of papers or another. If the elf didn't know better, he might think that she's been awake non-stop since their last meeting... but there's no way her little body could have held out over 48+ hours of work. Could it?<br/><br/>"Hm?" Koko does her best to rub the sleep from her eyes as Valen approaches, though no amount of rubbing will chase those dark circles away. "Oh, you're here. I've got a question for you. Do you want to become a permanent member of the society, not just a seeker-for-hire?"
