""I'm sorry? What do you mean?" Sunny asked, confused by Storm's strange words and behavior.

Storm rubbed her fore and middle finger against her thumb.
"Pay. Gold, silver, cash, money. This is my tavern; it costs money to maintain. And that means you pay, skank."

"Oh, of course... Umm...." She shuffled around in her skirts before remembering something. "Pardon me a moment" she said as she went into the back and had her back to them as she dug down her collar and pulled out a few gold medallions from the slides in her corset. She wiped them on her skirt to clean them before returning and offering them to Storm.

Storm took them with a smile.
"The jucies are in the striped, florcent bottles. The roots are in back, in the kitchen."
She pointed.

"Err... Thank you" Sunny said softly as she went to get everything together for their friend.

Kibo snapped "Angels In The Age Of Piracy" shut, after having had spirits memorize the last few lines for future reference. He gets up silently from his chair, and walks over to Storm, handing her a bag of gold about the size of his fist.
Kibo: Will this cover all our gallivanting?

Sunny browsed through the bottles and landed on one that looked to be juice. She pulled it from the shelf and uncorked it to smell, only to nearly drop it as she erupted in a coughing fit. She quickly re-corked it and put it back before resuming her search with little success. "Umm.." she managed, wondering if it would be too much to ask for help.

Kibo chuckles to himself, walking over and pulling a mid-sized bottle from the center of the shelf, walking over to Sunny and pressing it into her hands.
Kibo: Is Apple Cider okay?
He leans in, whispering so only she could hear him, even with Storm's acute ears.
Kibo: I need to talk to you alone for a moment.
He hands her the bottle, walking back to the desk, where he began putting the books away.

Sunny quickly found the rest of what she was looking for and handed off everything to Storm with a trusting nod. "Excuse me for a while. I've business to attend to..." she said before leaving to go to the fountain and wait. Something in Kibo's voice told her it was important.

After a few moments, Kibo walks over, having a seat next to her. He pulls a finely made, white leather bound book, with an ornate leaf design depicting the cherubic design atop the Ark of the Covenant. Beneath it, ornate lettering read, "Cherubim: A Comprehensive Spirituality."
Kibo: You might want to read up on your newly discovered talents.

She looked at him as if he'd grown a new head as she took the book from him. "Kibo?" she asked with slight panic. Her eyes locked onto his as if searching for answers.

Kibo: I was tipped off when you gave me this.
He holds up his empty hand, and the palm glows slightly as a white feather, adorned with a functional baby-blue eye, emerges from his flesh.

At first Sunny jumped back with fright as the eye blinked up at her. However she slowly and cautiously reached out to touch the feather as if spellbound. "I feel as if I should remember this... As if I've seen it before..." she whispered as her fingertips grazed the soft edge of the feather that was pinkish from where it had drawn Kibo's blood. She looked up athim with infinite questions echoing in her mind as well as fright.

Kibo: You will find answers to most of your questions in there. The remaining answers, you must find out on your own, for no human knows these.

Sunny clasped his hand in hers and rested her head on his shoulder. "I have a feeling I'm not going to like what I discover..." she said.
