Maphet: “Oh, there you are Icaro!” Maphet hoist the large bag of seeds under her arm as she sees her friend finally arriving, “We were almost going to leave without you, you know. And I can see you had a pleasant day as well, going by that smile of yours.”
Icaro: “Oh, it’s been better than pleasant!” Icaro cheerfully answers, his grin widening even more, “I’ve even made a new trade partner!”
Pesi: “Of course you have…”Pesi mutters while rolling her eyes, “And they trade in what, exactly? This is going to be just like that time you bought those nonexistent paintings of hairless apes, those that was supposedly hanging on a chain somewhere?”
Maphet: “Now now, Pesi, I’m sure he learned something from that.” The green lizard gives him a warm smile, “Surely, this trade contact is a bit more trustworthy than that, Icaro?”
Icaro: “Why, of course Maphet, they did after all have a shop right here at the Sand Claw festival!” he raises his hand and point towards himself before continuing, “And what’s even more important, I got a dinner date with her!”
Sekhmet: “A date? Why even bother? Just make it a quickie and put a bun in that oven!”
Icaro: “Because some of us actually want something more than that, Sekhmet.” the blue Volin states as he gives his friend the stink eye, “Like a mate or two for life.”
Pesi: “Ha! Like anyone would be your mate for a full week, let alone their full life.”
Maphet: “Pesi!”
Pesi: “What? I’m just speaking the truth!”
Maphet: “So… this girl… she was that scorpion lady, correct?”
Icaro: “Oh, indeed she is. Lady Xiatsu is her name…” Icaro stops and looks wistfully into the sky, “And she’s one of the most charming and regal women I’ve ever met…” he just stand there staring for a moment, as he’s seemingly mesmerized by his own daydreaming, “Why, I would say she even rivals the very gods with her beauty…”
Pesi: “She just wants our treasures, Icaro.”
Icaro: “Bah, you’re just jealous, Pesi.” The blue lizard quickly answers, all the while doing a rather rude gesture towards his black and white companion, “Though… she did ask a bunch about investment portfolios and financial assets, whatever that means? She wanted to see them next time our worlds connect, so it’s some kind of trade talk, right?”
Maphet: “I do believe so…” the green Volin rubs her chin a bit, thinking, “I guess she wants to see what our tribe is willing to trade? I’ll make sure you’ll have a fine selection to show her next time you meet.”
Sekhmet: “Just give her a pile of gold and jewels! Bitches love gold and jewels!”
Pesi: Pesi lets out a sigh “I’ll dig up my finest bone carving, Icaro… for the tribe.”
Maphet: “Goodbye everyone, it is time for us to return to our own world.” Maphet loudly declare for everyone to hear, “Thank you, Jynn Kara, for this amazing ‘Hoth Koko’, as well as Pesi’s new clothes.”
Sekhmet: “Happy Sand Claw festival, weaklings!” Sekhmet interjects while waving goodbye through the portal, “May you slay that Claw beast this year!”
And thus, the Volin tribe’s adventure with Sand Claws is over… for this year.
