A Ruined Introduction
[It's the middle of the afternoon, yet the dark clouds make the already sorry-looking hamlet appear even more gloomy. The area's mostly abandoned, save for a few residents. As for you, the strangers, there's been an offer made by someone in this town. They promise riches and glory to those who will listen. But now to find this person...] [Most of the buildings are boarded up, but the inn's door is slightly open. There's also a beaten-down path leading to somewhere at the edge of the hamlet.]
*Tao snifs around... and heads towards the inn, sniffing for food or, well anything that could fill her empty stomach* Tao's hungry, meooow...
[Tao's stomach leads her inside the inn. Inside is a bar, although it's certainly not lively. Only two people are present: a bartender, and some poor soul who's passed out with a mostly-empty glass in his hand.]
Meow? *she pokes the sleeping man* Are you okay? Do you also need food?
[The man groans and mutters something under his breath, then opens an eye.] "Wha... 'm fine. Juss need a break..." [He sits up a little and takes another look at the... cat... person... thing.] "Unless ya got some coins, y'ain't gettin' much of anything to eat. 'Less you're one of that man's guys."
Awww... You won't feed Tao? * Tao's stomach Growls* Do you know where Tao can find coins to get food?
*Kotori wakes up in her inn room and walks downstairs*
"Get coins...? I see. Ya wanna accept his offer?" [The man sighs and puts his head down on the counter.] "It's your choice, I guess. Go up to that big mansion. Can't miss it." [Kotori hears this conversation as she heads down the staircase.]

After gearing up, Kotori heads up to the mansion Maybe NOW he'll see me.
Huh? Are you going to the mansion too meow? * she looks at Kotori with question marks in her eyes*
No, I'm just walking in that direction for the hell of it.
*Diego, who's still on Silver Bullet, wakes up* *Sigh* "Why didn't I just sleep in the Inn?"
[As they approach the mansion, they can sense that this place was once grand. It's the largest building around, but time and the forces haunting the hamlet have worn it down. A small gargoyle with a missing foot greets them as they pass through the gates. The large double doors await the two.] ooc: aaand food. Great. Will hurry back.
Oh... So you won't team up with Tao.. that's too baaad Meow! But that also means more money for Tao! And more money for Tao means more food for Tao!!! Yaaaaaay! * She then rushes towards the door and Cat-punches it*
*Noctis inside the mansion looks at this cat* oh you a resident at this place
*Silver Bullet and Diego make their way to the mansion*
[Tao's swift punch causes the doors to burst open. A young man steps out of one of the side rooms and nods. Their hooded cloak covers most of their face.] "I didn't expect such a large response... You're all here because of my offer, right? I need your help in looking for something. It'll help cleanse this place of its horrors, and I assure you that you'll be handsomely rewarded."
Oh! Hey! The person we almost died to get here to meet is finally gonna grace us with his presence! How honored i feel. Her voice drips of sarcasm
Rewarded? With food??? * Tao's eyes start to shine brightly under her hood*
*Diego arrives at the mansion* "Huh, I'd never expect a mansion to be in this run down town." *Diego gets off of Silver Bullet and enters the mansion*
[The man looks at Kotori, as if thinking "not this again," but chuckles a little at Tao.] "If that's what you desire, yes. I need parts of a magical statue. The first part is in the Ruins, although you'll need to clear out the beasts inside to even have a chance of getting to it. This'll take a few expeditions, but I have confidence in you. I'll arrange for the necessary supplies."
* tao falls asleep during this long explanation.*
