@inheirit / starter call.

♚ : perhaps if she weren't possessed of preternatural hearing, miko might not have overheard the young woman arguing with the shopkeep. arguing might have been too strong a term - it sounded more akin to the heated discussion between one set on getting a deal and one refusing to budge an inch in price. it was the type of haggling she used to delight in watching and, on occasion, ply her silver tongue in the act herself.

she'd wandered toward the enticing sounds without thinking, and realized how close she'd come to the source; the steadily reddening merchant versus a young woman wearing an increasingly incensed expression. their attention had briefly flicked to her, unfortunately.

'oh no, don't mind me.' she waved a hand nonchalantly. 'i greatly enjoy witnessing a true battle of the marketplace. please, carry on.'
