Rishi was doing her first quest back in Orchidia, and she was pretty tired. There was nothing that she really wanted to do at all, and even moving was a pain. She felt sick in the head and sometimes she would see splatters of blood on the wall. Her steps were weary, and her hair swayed like a weeping willow. She had no motivation, no life left in her, and she felt like she wanted to die, suffering from all the pain. She was starving herself all because of manners, and she called herself stupid all the time for it. Really there was no point in starving herself when she could grab someone off the street and just sip off of them. That made her think back to when she was on the train though when she had been thinking about how unsanitary it would be to grab someone and bite them without knowing where they've been. It was kind of disturbing when you really thought about it, but still, Rishi was hungry, and she was going to have to eat sometime. She wasn't planning on staying in this city for long, so she would wait until she got to her desired destination to eat, but until then she would be doing a quest. The grey-haired girl would be helping Dex Millar again, but she wasn't sure if he would recognize her or not. She couldn't recall whether or not she had eaten that cake before or after she had come to Orchidia, and whether or not he would still accept her for the job. She thought about these things and she warily walked down the streets, getting to the place that she needed to be in order to start her quest.
Today the town had been pretty silent, and some people were even spooked. The sun had been starting to set, and it seemed to have been putting a film over everyone else, making them all act differently than they did during the day. Rishi found this a little strange but she quickly dismissed it as she approached Dex. He recognized her instantly and had greeted her once again, but with a hint of fear in his voice. What was everyone so scared of today? What did she miss while she was gone? She had no idea, but as the two of them walked and he explained the current situation to her, she could see why everyone was a bit on edge. She was told that there was some type of big blue glowing ball around the river. She would probably be scared too if she would have assumed that this was a curse. What she thought it was really wasn't a curse at all though, she believed it was some kind of spirit. She wasn't really sure on what kind of spirit it was, but she assumed it wasn't a bad one because it hadn't been attacking the town or anything of the sort. "Time to get to work," she thought to herself before she walked towards the river.
