Once they arrived at their next destination Thomas looked at Lily and Scarlett as he said "Welcome to Nokodosa Gardens." They stared at him as they asked "What's so special about this place?" Thomas shrugged as he said "Dunno but it is the quickest way to Helios." They stared at him as they yelled "Then why make it sound so exciting?" He yawned as he said, "Don't get mad at me it's not like I can read a book about the place." They sighed as they said, "I guess it can't be helped we'll just have to find out ourselves!" Thomas began to walk away as he asked "By we you mean the two of you right?" They stared at him as they said "Nope we meant the three of us." Thomas continued to walk away as he said "It'd be fun to explore with you two but I got something else to do right now." They stared at him as they asked "What could you possibly need to do?" Thomas shrugged as he said, "Alright fine I'll take a look around with you guys for a while."
Lily and Scarlett looked at each other as They whispered to one another "What could he possibly need to do?" Thomas watched them as he mumbled, "I guess theirs really no difference if I do this now or later." Thomas began to walk towards the village as he said "Come on you two I don't got all day." They stared at him as they began to follow him. Scarlett walked up behind Thomas as she asked "Aren't the people in this town gonna hate me just like all the others?" Thomas yawned as he said, "I can't say for certain but going on ahead alone is pretty boring." Lily looked at him as she said "But isn't it safer to go on ahead and warn people she's nice?" Thomas scratched his head as he said "Yeah but I'm pretty sure I overheard the people in the last town say something about this place being neutral territory between intelligent species." Scarlet stared at him as she said "Such a place exists?" Thomas shrugged as he said, "Apparently peace does exist between different species."
As they walked around the town someone bumped Thomas. As Thomas stood up the man turned around as he apologized for bumping into him. Thomas shrugged as he said, "No harm done." As Thomas stared at him he realized that he was staring at another demon. He turned to Scarlett as he said "See you got nothing to worry about." Thomas stared at the man as he asked "Do you know where the capital is?" The man stared at him as he pointed to a building not too far from where they were as he said "You must be adventurers." Thomas looked at Lily and Scarlett as he said "Nope we're just a couple of misfits having fun." The man nodded as he said, "I see." Thomas stared at him as he said "That was sarcastic we are adventures so do not take that seriously." The man stared at him as he said "Then why didn't you just say so, follow me I can help you out with the capital." Thomas stared at him as he said "No thanks."
The man stared at Thomas as he disappeared. The man looked around as he asked Lily and Scarlett "What just happened?" Lily looked at him as she said "I'm really sorry he's not much of a people person." Scarlett pointed behind him as she said "He didn't teleport very far." The man turned around as he saw Thomas and said "I thought I was seeing things." Thomas walked into the building as Lily, Scarlett and the man followed him in. Thomas walked up to the desk as he asked "Where can I get quests?" The lady behind the desk stared at him as she pointed to a wall with a board and papers on it as she said "You can get them there or at a local inn." Thomas looked at her as he said "Thanks." The lady sat back in her chair as she said "Your welcome." Thomas walked up to the quest board as he mumbled "Let's see what I can find." Thomas closed his eyes as he said "A little speak in tongues magic outta make picking one of these quests easier."
Thomas opened his eyes as he heard the words speak to him as he mumbled "No that one seems like a pain, maybe this one?" Thomas continued to mumble to himself until he picked a quest to do as he turned to the others and said "Theirs a quest for gathering that sounds pretty easy." They stared at him as they said "You spent five minutes staring at a board only to choose one of the easiest ones." Thomas shrugged as he said, "I can solo this one." They stared at him as they said "If you couldn't solo it you'd have serious issues." Thomas shrugged as he said, "I choose the one I'm doing so you two can pick the ones you wanna do." They stared at him as they said "You can't be serious." Thomas walked towards the desk as he put the quest paper down and said "I understand that I joke a lot but I'm serious about this." Scarlett and Lily stared at each other as Lily said "The two of us should work together and do a monster quest."
Thomas shrugged as he said, "Suite yourself if you ask me it's definitely easier to do gathering quests and such." They stared at him as they asked "How can you be so lazy?" Thomas shrugged as he said, "Say what you will but at least I already picked my quest." They both looked at the board as they began to read through the quests. Thomas looked at the man as he said "I didn't mean to ditch you, I just don't got time to waste right now." The man stared at him as he said "I understand but if anything I'm surprised that someone actually let a demon join up with them to adventure." Thomas shrugged as he said, "I don't see the problem." Thomas looked at the paper as he held it up to him as he asked "You wouldn't happen to know where to find these would you?" The man took the paper as he said "You actually took on the gathering quest?" Thomas shrugged as he said, "The herbs are used for medical supplies right?"
The man nodded as Thomas said, "Then getting these will save a life as to where slaying a few monsters might save a life." The man nodded as he said, "I see your point, allow me to show you where the herbs and mushrooms are." Thomas followed the man out the door and into the forest as the man said "If we keep going this way we'll find the herbs in no time." Thomas continued to follow him as he bent down and held up a plant as he said "This is one of the herbs you'll be searching for." Thomas grabbed the herb and sniffed it as he said "Theirs quite a lot of this stuff lying around." The man stared at him as he said "Actually there isn't much of it." Thomas looked around as he said, "Their tons of it you're just not looking in the right spot." Thomas walked over to a broken log as he lifted it and found some of the herbs he said "Found some." The man looked at him as he said "The next thing on this list is mushrooms." Thomas looked at him as he asked "You wouldn't happen to have a sample for me to smell would you?"
The man shook his head as he said "The mushrooms are in a dark moist cave and it's hard to get a torch to stay lit when you're in the cave." Thomas stared at him as he said "Lead the way." The man stared at him as he said "Are you sure you won't be able to see anything." Thomas smiled as he said, "Don't worry about sight, you said that there are sick people who need this medicine and right now that's more important." The man scratched his head as he looked at Thomas and said "Follow me." Thomas began to follow him as he led him to a cave as he said "The mushrooms are in here." Thomas stared at him as he said "Hang tight I'll be right back." Thomas ran into the cave for a few minutes as he ran back out with a few different kinds of mushrooms as he asked "Are any of these the ones I'm looking for?" The man observed the mushrooms for a while as he held up one and said "This is it without a doubt."
Thomas grabbed the mushroom as he sniffed it and said "I'll be right back." As Thomas came back he looked at the man as he grabbed his shoulder and teleported them both back to the capital. Thomas began to breathe heavily as he mumbled "I don't think I'm ready to teleport with multiple people yet." Thomas walked up to the desk as he turned in the herbs and mushrooms. The man walked up to Thomas as he said "Thank you for helping the sick." Thomas looked at him as he handed him a few silvers as he said "That's your share for helping me find the herbs." The man stared at him as he said "But I didn't do anything to really help you." As the man said this Thomas was already back at the quest board as he began to mumble some more.
