Adelport, Mei's home on the shore (moving through town, towards a market near the outskirts)
Interacting with: Geozaki and Elowyn
The trapdoor closed by itself behind Sophie, and grabbing a dark blue cloak from the wardrobe, and giving a similarly made one to Sophie, Mei lead the way out of the house, carefully observing their surroundings as she opened the front door, before ushering Sophie out before her, and locking it securely.
Her house was in a lovely, quiet location, and she needed to trek quite far around the town to get to the market she usually bought her goods from, which was near the outskirts of the town. Still, it was worth the walk, and Mei began the journey, fastening her cloak but leaving the hood down. It would look suspicious if she pulled up her hood, and neither woman had anything to worry about, save for Mei's unusual eye colour. But that was generally accepted with only a few odd stares, due to her status.
"Okay. We are stocked up on fish, as per usual. Although from what I could see when I checked or stocks last night, we shall need some vegetables, and we're running low on apples...", she began recounting all that they would need to Sophie.
"We need some more thread, and perhaps a needle if there is one selling for cheap.", she sighed. Even if she were well payed, looking after 7 people, including herself, was expensive, and they couldn't afford much. Luckily, they could cut out certain costs due to some of the women's powers, which did alleviate some of the stress from Mei's purse strings.
As they drew nearer to their destination, Mei stopped in her tracks, something had caught her eye.
A woman, in what appeared to be a maid outfit, lay injured on the steps of a tavern. Even if her reputation was on the line, she could not help but approach the girl, beckoning to Sophie to come with her. She crouched next to her, not touching her just yet.
"Excuse me, are you okay? Do you need help?", the girl was very obviously not okay, and Mei was already coming up with a plan to bring her back to her house. There was no way she could let the girl down into the safehouse just yet, it had taken awhile to trust Sophie enough, and even then they had met under special circumstances...
