Ophelia nodded. "I know pretty much every thing there is to know about this forest." She paused for a moment and wondered if she had said a little too much information. 'I sure hope he does not have anything against "The Witch of the Forest" or I am a dead man walking...'

Sarah couldn't sleep. She decided to walk into the next town to try and find somewhere she could actually have a bed, since the ground hurt her back and the damp forest floor made her joints ache. She wandered through the woods until she came out into an enormous city that she had never seen before. Beautiful buildings of white sparkled against the night, dazzling her eyes. She nearly sprinted to the gates, where two guards in royal blue and white protected the wonderous city.
"Excuse me," she said. "Can I go in there?" She peeked over their shoulders impatiently, eager to get inside.
"What's your business?" said one of them suspiciously.
"I just wanna get inside!!" she whined. "I've never been in a city before!! I wanna see it!"
The guard sighed and signaled to a watch tower. The gate slowly creaked open, and before it had opened fully Sarah was sprinting through its streets in awe. Everything was enormous and beautiful. Wow. Wowowowowowowowowow. WOOOOOOOOOW. That was all she could think of as she ran.
This must be where Prince Shondr lived.
Sarah accidentally ran into a woman and fell on her butt. Niiiiiiice. The woman looked at her for a moment, then laughed slightly, helping her up.
"I'm sorry, I must have been looking the wrong way as I walked," she said kindly. "I'm Kida."
Sarah smiled apologetically. "No, it was my fault, and my name is Sarah Dev. Nice to meet you. I was running because it's my first time in this city, and I got a little too excited..."
Kida smiled. "Well, if you need a place to stay and a good wage to earn, then my husband and I run an inn and we need a waitress."
Sarah looked at her for a moment, then her face broke out into a grin. "Thank you! I'd love to accept!!" Maybe she could settle down in this world after all.

Krisom nodded once now a emotionless look in her face, she glanced for a second at the camera in the right corner of the ceiling then back at the man "The estimated value of this company would be about $100000000, thought the value would actually be what you are willing to pay... and yes we do own such a system" she answered her hands clasped together infront of her and laying in the desk as she was sitting straight in her seat.

Shondr smiled, "Then maybe you can help me through it. I'm headed to a nearby village to solve a problem..."
---
The man nodded and jotted something down.
"I just have two more questions, Ma'am. Are you ever planning on entering the entertainment industry? And what is you opinion of Lotus Corporation? Please be completely honest."

Ophelia smiled back,"I would be glad to. Which town are you going to, if I may ask?" She needed to know which town he was headed to so she would know which way to go. If she didn't have that much information there was no way to get him to his destination.

"Glendenburg" Shondr replied, naming the very town that feared 'the witch of the forest.' "I'm to get there by tomorrow."

Sarah entered Kida's inn that smelled strongly of vanilla. It was made of rich oak and cedar, giving the entirety of the building a homey feeling. Several men were sitting around in chairs by tables or sitting by the fireplace drinking and chatting contentedly. Sarah looked around in amazement. "I love your inn! It's very nice."
Kida smiled. "I'm glad you like it. And welcome to Glendenburg, by the way."
Sarah figured that was the name of the city. "So far this place is amazing, at least to me. So where is your husband?"
Kida jerked her head towards the group of men by the fireplace. "He's over there, telling more of his war stories." Sarah looked to a tall man with an ebony beard using hand gestures to captivate his audience while telling his story. "He loves to tell how he supposedly took out twenty men at once." Kida laughed. "He just accidentaly set off a fireworks stand that knocked them all over."
Sarah followed the kind woman to a back room with a single bed and nightstand. "You can stay here if you like."
She nodded. "Thank you very much, you're being too kind to me. I don't usually socialize with others, though, so I don't know if I'll be a good waitress," she added.
Kida laughed. "Don't worry, we have a lot of strangers here, so we're all used to it. I hope you like it here."
Sarah smiled meaningfully. "I'm sure I will." She was beginning to feel like she was home.

Krisom shook her head lightly "No sir, Entertaiment industry is just too...much trouble if you know what I mean" The woman answered still emotionless but with a small smile forming in her lips, almost unable to be noticed "And well, you don't really need to ask for honesty, Lotus is, at least for me, such an interesting corporation, I mean... in a good way, really calls the attention" she added a mysterious look in her eyes.

"I see." The man nodded and got up. "That's all. Your compensation will reach you within three business days. You have a profitable week, Ms. Krisom." With that, he left a Lotus Co. card and left the office.

Sarah lay her things on the nightstand and sat on the bed, looking around. The city was amazing, and with a sudden jolt she realized that she didn't feel awkward or cut off from others here. It was great, better than great, it actually felt like a home, even if she had only seen it for a few moments.
Just then a small boy peered out of the doorway shyly ((looks like this)).
They looked at eachother for a moment. Sarah smiled. "Hey, who are you?"
The boy slowly entered the room. "Umm... I'm Kyal. Mommy said you'll be staying here awhile."
"Oh, so you're Kida's son?"
"..Uh-huh. Mommy said she needs you to help her in the kitchen." With that he turned and ran out the door. Sarah followed him into the kitchen where Kida was baking. She looked up as she entered the room.
"Oh, I was hoping you could go out and hand these to the men," she said, handing her some alcohol and piping hot bread. "I'll pay you later."
Sarah took them. "Alright, and I don't want money, staying here is payment enough."

"Oh! I know that town, it is not that far from here. Just follow me." 'Why that town...? Why of all places there...?' Opehlia turned to the direction they were headed in and began walking that way, all the time thinking about what might happen if one of the townsmen spot her. It wouldn't be very good if something like that happened. 'I should just escort him out of the forest and let him continue on by himself, since the town is only a short walk from the forest. I guess that is the best thing to do...'

Travis bit deep into his sandwich, not really caring about anything other than his constant daydreams. To the side was his clipboard for 'notes' containing the various pictures he'd drawn that day.

"Oh, good! I appreciate the help, miss." Shondr said, sheathing his sword.

Ophelia smiled and replied,"No problem." Light began to shine more brilliantly ahead. 'So the exit is just ahead then... It's been awhile since I have been in outside the forest, I wonder what it's like?' She shook her head, knowing she shouldn't leave the forest right now, just not in this town.
Ophelia came to the exit of the forest and stopped, then turned around with a smile. "Here's the exit! I wish you luck on solving that problem you mentioned earlier."

"eh... aren't you coming too?" Shondr asked the girl, confused on why she stopped.
