"Don't worry Agni~ I'm fine." Smiling briefly at her companion Esperia turned her gaze from the dog back toward the bulletin board that was strapped to the limit with fliers and requests. One request in particular drawn her attention: it was a stylish and rather pretty pink flier that asked for someone to help with some important shopping.
Gently pulling the flier from the bulletin board Esperia started to make her way toward the store mentioned on the paper, her gaze drifting around while finding her curiosity stirred at all the stores that were located in the area.
After a short walk, she arrived at the boutique the flier belonged to, and yet little had prepared her for the enthusiastic greeting from the owner of the story.
"Ohohohoho~ hello young lady! Have you come here for a new dress?" Fernando smiled brightly at her, yet his smile only brightened even further when she lifted her hands to show the flier she had brought along.
"Gracious me~ Are you the little angel send from above to help me with my new fashion line? Perfect, FABULOUS even~"
The man ushered her inside the store while she explained she had indeed come to offer her help with whatever issue he had been facing. "I see~ I see~ Well, I'm truly glad you are paying me a visit young lady! You see, there are several very rare and exclusive fabrics I require, but there is a big problem..."
The mentioning of a problem made Esperia tilt her head to the side in confusion, seemingly somewhat curious at the mentioning of a problem.
"The merchants that possess the goods I need are traveling merchants who are currently at the yearly market, and due to the rarity of the fabric, they will likely be asking a lot... I don't have the time to haggle and bargain, so I need someone smart like you to handle the purchases for me."
That seemed like a surprisingly simple assignment... so she simply needed to visit the merchants at the market and bargain with them? She might not have been a merchant's daughter, but she was sure she would be able to accomplish this mission!
"Leave it to me~" The girl's exclamation made the man nod in approval while handing her a rather large and heavy purse. "What I need are the Elestia Fabrics, you'll recognize them by their light blue color and silken-like touch."
And with that the girl darted off toward the market, ready to start her work!
