Just...Hurry Up

Description

She had arrived just at the break of dawn. Just barely visible above the horizon were the silhouettes of the roofs of small houses and shacks. The village itself was nothing truly of note. Like many of its kind, it was just a few small houses and shacks spread about in a disjointed manner. A meager marketplace lay in the center of the village. A few small businesses had sprung up around the edge of a market, not dissimilar to a parasite to its host. For an establishment this small, Valse chose the guise of a travelling magician. Word of an entertainer was sure to spread hastily in a community this close-knit. As she had so many times before, she hastily devised a story for her to fall back upon. Though with this one in particular she indulged herself with the story far more than she often did. Upon deeming her plot flawless, she entered the settlement. Despite her clothing being significantly more ornate than that of a commoner, the sheer level of colorful garb worn by the townspeople allowed her to look around without arousing suspicion. She immediately made her way to the marketplace. After a fair bit of browsing, she determined it would cost roughly 150 gold for enough food to last til the next town. "Simple enough." She thought to herself. A simple light show could easily rake in copious amounts of gold, given the right audience. She could barely contain her euphoria as hundreds of commoners poured into the marketplace for their daily business. Eventually she stood atop an absent vendor's stall. She loudly cleared her throat, gaining the attention of a few people. She then said, in as loud and songlike of a voice that she could muster, "LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!".

  The local pub sat quiet as the young magician entered. She slowly sauntered over to a small table and collapsed into a chair, breathing heavily. A few customers glanced at her, but hastily refocused their attention elsewhere. A waitress approached her with an uneasy stare. Valse simply glared back. "Wha.. what can I get you?" Asked the waitress. Valse pulled out a small coin bag and emptied its contents on to the table. "A drink, I don't care what kind." She said. The waitress scooped up the gold and went to the up to the bar. Valse sat in silence staring down into the bottomless depths of the table. Soon, a new person had entered the pub. The person was clad in dark robes, a stark contrast to the brightly colored locale. Through the robes, one could make out the physique belonging to that of a young man. He sat across from Valse. Looking up at the hooded stranger, She found the stranger staring intently at her. "What?" She asked flatly. "I was at your display..." He began. " I thought it was most impressive. It is truly to rarity to see one with abilities as well endowed as yourself."  He looked at her shoulder, with a quizzical look, he asked " You had a staff at the show. May I ask what has become of it?" Valse's cheeks lit up to a red color. "It was... taken from me. As was most of my belongings." She said. "Ah, a shame." He said. The man then had a small glint in his eye. "Perhaps... Perhaps you would be willing to do something for me? For one in such dire need as yourself, I could see you handsomely rewarded..."
