Drathir stood and waited as Min'hyvair looked through her things and figured what she needed. She was use to waiting and would help but though she could 'see' there were still things like reading that she'd not be able to do.
At her own words of her lady, she could feel that the other female was stunned. That happened quite a lot, most drow would never meet one of her lady's status and it was unlikely to meet her most trusted servent as well.
"It is, though Lloth has taken my sight, she blessed me to be able to serve someone like Matron Burryna." Drathir smiled, one of her eyesight would normally have been cast aside.
"An honorable house. It is no problem at all. And I will be sure to remember to tell my lady if she is ever looking." Burryna's sister was not so good at remembering of Drathir's lack of reading and had given her a paper list. "And could you help me find a few things, my lady's sister gave me a list but, well I can't actually read through my special sight."

Min'hyvair took in a whiff of the herbs inside the tent to try and steady her nerves. She still couldn't believe her good fortune. Today of all days, she had just made contact with a most honored servant to a Matron with enough power to actually help her accomplish a deed her heart most desired. Perhaps the Spider Queen was favoring her after all.
Min composed herself, as she listened to Drathir speak. Drathir's request for aid couldn't have come at a better time, she still had plenty of time to get her own things and get back to the House without anyone knowing that she had gone. And perhaps her helping Drathir would in return give her a way to gain a way to the Matron Burryna's ear about in the future.
"Thank you, I would appreciate that greatly Drathir." Min'hyvair replied, "and I would be honored to be your "eyes" for the next hour or so. I do have to return within a set time, but I imagine your tasks won't take that long."

Drathir nodded and walked into the tent, having enough barrings to get inside despite it being made out of clothe. She was glad, though not about running into someone, that Min'hyvair would at least help he find a few things. It was easier then having to ask the tent owners (she'd know her order was right too). If there was one she'd not want to be on the bad side of, it was the Matron's sister.
"I thank you again then. I do not think it should take that long, just a few things here and at one, perhaps two, other places. My lady will be sure to hear of your helpfulness." She reached into a pouch and produced a list, handing it to the other. "These are what one of my lady's sisters needs here." Shifting through another pouch she found the other list. "The rest here will be found else where in the market."

Min'hyvair followed Drathir back into the tent, the scent of the herbs and released her pent up nerve. She took the list Drathir handed her and barked out the order to the owner, now feeling more invigorated and not in the least bit nervous or wary of her surroundings. The owner quickly filled the order and packaged it up and handed it over, and stood waiting for Min's next orders.
Min'hyvair relayed the list of items from her earlier purchases before and then turned to Drathir. "Well..that was easy enough. Where else do we need to stop?" Min asked, feeling like a completely different person.

It was quite easier having someone else there to find the things. True she could 'see' easily enough but she could never read and find things like in this tent. Drathir thanked the lady and took the package of what she had needed to retrieve. She then paid the tent owner as well, who'd known the house she represented well enough from previous visits.
"Ah, well this one last place. Matron De'Rretep has had twins recently. The boy tears through most things he is given. I must buy some replacement toys for the son and the daughter as well." This was the place it would be handy that one could see was around. Drathir couldn't well decided if some toy was fit enough for the Matron's children.

Min'hyvair couldn't help but roll her eyes and comment a bit dryly,
"Males seem to do that don't they? I wonder what makes them so destructive?" She mused as she collected her parcel of replacement supplies, and made sure to hold it carefully in her arms as they left the herb tent.
"Do you have any idea what sort of toys they might like? I'm really not that into toys these days." She commented as she and Drathir made their way out of the tent and through the marketplace.

Drathir nodded. "They always do. I was amazed that my lady had taken a Patron so soon. Though he did give her twins, perhaps she is hoping for another set at some time." After all twins were a blessing. "I think the males are just uneasy." She left the tent as well.
Her head shook back and forth. "Due to my lack of sight, I am not sure what has and hasn't worked. Perhaps you can help describe some we find and I'll think of what I know they've had in the past." She had no idea where to start looking, obviously, and followed Min'hyvair.

Min'hyvair grinned, " What a blessing to have twins! She must be, there's really no other reason to keep a male around for that long. Unless he is very useful in other ways as well. I suppose they are uneasy," Min began.
"I mean they never know what might happen, what their mistress' next whim might be. They must have a hard time allowing their fate to be held in the hands of females, them being so strong and all. I suppose some would think they are more entitled to having more freedom than is allowed. Which is what makes them so unpredictable. Life with males certainly is an adventure," Min commented dryly.
"Ah yes, of course. Let's go this way, I think I can hear some children. Usually children will gather in front of toys or candy, so we'll have a fifty percent chance of finding some toys." Min replied, and started to walk towards the sound.
Min led Drathir past several tents, until the sounds of children giggling grew louder. And she was happy to see that it was indeed a tent filled with every toy imaginable. several giggling children were standing to the side of the tent watching a puppet show that was being performed for them. Their nanny and several guards were standing close by, which gave Min'hyvair the idea that they were children from a well off house.
"Here it is Drathir," She said, edging past a guard and gently guiding Drathir past the group so she wouldn't bump into them. "Now then..let me have a look around first. How old are these babies again?"
