<We must find some stuff,> Erik said, his gaze scanning their surroundings.

June tilted his head, his bird eyes narrowing as she pondered Erik's statement. <Clothes, and…?>

Erik paused for a moment. <A phone. I need to make a call.>

June's feathers ruffled. <Are you going to call her?>

<Yes. With her help, we should be able to find Shade faster.>

<But what if they sell us? Didn't Noah say the Band of Giants kept guild under surveillance?>

<Yes. That's why I will talk to Rebecca. doubt she sell us.>

<If you say so.>

Their quest for suitable attire led them to a quaint shop nestled between towering skyscrapers, its windows aglow with soft, inviting light.

Without hesitation, Erik landed on the ledge, his insect form barely noticeable. June perched beside him.

<Wait for me here…> Erik said. For this operation, he needed someone fast, and between the two, he was the fastest.
