"Marketplace...? I didn't know there were places to go besides this
house.." She glanced out one of the many windows, a little
perplexed. To think there was a world outside the house- it was a
little unbelievable. "Describe this 'marketplace'."

"Why, of course not, Crow-2. Aleksandr invited anyone. The more the
merrier!" Reshen turned to his book, which had flipped to the last
page again, recounting the conversation between Evan and Leanne. He
waved his fingers and it shut again and returned to floating behind
him. "I haven't gone yet, dear Emmie. That makes it much more
exciting doesn't it? A brand new world, a brand new marketplace for
you to explore."
"Oh... Yeah! Let's go right now, come on!" She raced to the front
door, catching herself before she slammed right into it. "Hurry up!
I wanna go now!" She impatiently waited, swinging the door back and
forth on her heels, waiting for Reshen. "You're so slow!"

"Alright! Alright!" He chuckled, following her out the door.
"You've got more energy that a woodland brownie." Reshen missed
this kind of enthusiasm. Most of the people the stories wrote about
were moody and glum and sarcastic. Of course, he liked the
cheekiness but too much was too much. "Aleksander!" He called out.
"Could you guide us to the marketplace?" Reshen gestured to Crow-2
and Emmie.
Crow-2 couldn’t help himself but let out a small laugh at the sight
of the girl’s restlessness. He always had a soft spot for children,
but this was the first time he had seen a child so full of vim and
vigor. Crow-2 walked out the front door, right being The
Storyteller and the child.
A Marketplace? He didn’t have any credits… maybe it wouldn’t be a
good idea to go. He figured that he could probably find something
to do in here instead. Perhaps there was paper? He hadn’t drawn
anything in a while. Maybe it could help calm his nerves. Yeah.
He’d go look for some.
”Mysterious… surprising… and law-defying… Isn’t that
right?”
As he followed after Aleksander, Reshen looked down. His eyes swept
over the town below, taking in the houses and the people and the
little things he could see. Ah, houses. What lovely things. He
preferred them to the tall, imposing masses of metal and glass that
most, hum, metropolitans had. What were they? Skyscrapers. Why
people built things to touch the sky, he had no idea. He hooked his
lantern to his belt and glanced back. "Are you alright?" He called
to Crow-2 and Emmie, as well as everyone that followed. "Watch your
step now, don't tumble and break your crown."
Emmie skated around, looking around the marketplace in awe. She was
immediately marking down good hiding spots in her head, looking
back to make sure they were following. "Come on, it's really big
here!"
