Send me âď¸ + a muse, and Iâll try my hand at writing as them
âHey you! Yeah, you!â A merchant clad in violet extended his hand out to get the otherâs attention. The rabbit hood he wore covered most of his features, but there was no hiding the charismatic salesman grin. âYou look like someone whoâs a real go getter out in this big crazy world. An adventurer of sorts, ya know what Iâm saying? But youâre practically naked! Whatâs an adventurer without his supplies? Itâs like a seamstress without any thread, or a baker without flour.â
Ravio put his hands over his hips as a little bird fluttered onto his shoulder.Â
âWell lucky for you, Iâm a specialist of sorts,â he beamed, raising his index finger and giving it a wag. âIâve got magic rods, boomerangs, bombs, bows, the essentials. You got the rupees? Iâll set you up with the best equipment you wonât find anywhere else! Go ahead, take a look and see. And if buying is out of your budget, we got a rental program for a lot less. The only catch is if you get knocked out somehow, my buddy Sheerow will swoop in and take back whateverâs on rent. But hey, sounds fair, donât you think?â
Ravio stopped, his ears picking up that all too familiar whine. Great, another haggler. Why was everyone in Hyrule so damn stingy? They sure had more in their wallets than what was back home!
âI hear you buddy. Itâs a tough world out there, and just like how you gotta fight to survive, I got to make a living and eat! Pal, friend, listen. Quality is never cheap and youâre gonna need the best of the best if youâre gonna make it.â
A sly smirk lit his face as he stepped back.
âOhhhh no I see. Youâre a clever buyer. Canât always trust the salesmanâs words, yeah? Well thatâs fair. If you wonât take my word for it...â He pushed his counterpart ahead, the confused blonde looking between his friend and the customer. âWhat if I told you the new and improved one and only Hero of Hyrule in the flesh was a regular satisfied customer of mine! Please, hold the pictographs. Those cost extra. So Link? Whatâd ya think of my quality items? Best of the best, donât ya think?â
âExactly! So good heâs absolutely speechless! So? Whatâre ya waiting for? Thereâs limited supply so get them while theyâre hot!â
