After recovering his wits from Blair's unexpected kiss Ulric headed to the trade post to collect any gold that may have accumulated from the food he put up for sale, he needed to get the money to open the residence token he had, and open his first 'real' café, since the one he worked at on the island wasn't his this would be his first business.
On his way to the trade post someone put their hand on his shoulder, turning he saw Coldstone who had a troubled look on her face, she asked him for a few minutes to talk and led him to a secluded area,
"Sorry to pull you aside without warning, I just needed someone to talk to,"
Ulric was concerned, "What's wrong? can i help?"
Coldstone smiled, "Just talking about it will be a big help, you see I, well, this avatar is an Alt, my main is currently working to earn a living, I only use this one when I have the free time and I think you are a good person and someone trustworthy, but who I really am is a little hard to believe so when i am on my main and i see you try not to be surprised ok?"
"Um, ok, uh, when will i meet your main?" Ulric asked,
"I'm not sure um, maybe today, what are you doing today?" she Asked
"nothing too complex I was going to the Trade Post, then I have grinding to do,"
her eyes lit up, "ooh ok well I'll let you get on bye," and she dashed into the inn.
Ulric thought that was a little odd but he was preoccupied with the gold he needed, but a friend is a friend and if she needed help he would help.
After the short encounter with Coldstone he made his was to the Trade Post, just like all the others it was opulently carpeted, the walls were oak and had some tasteful paintings hung on them, and there were two desks as usual, Sabastian greeted him with a smile and handed him his gold and chatted for a few minutes before he pointed out that someone seemed to be waiting for Ulric, looking he saw Aika stood by a door and waving him over, curious he went over and she ushered him into the door, inside was a few comfy chairs and a table and as soon as he entered
NOTIFICATION: you have entered a 'private' area.
Ulric turned and looked at Aika who was looking nervous, could she be?
Aika took a deep breath, "I'm Aika, and also Coldstone,"
