Xiao Long walked along the trail, slowly, thinking happy thoughts and watching the sun set. She walked over to one of the boards, thinking about getting another job. Her last one had been pretty dirty. She had to hunt out a thief, who just happened to be living in the sewers.
The thought of the sewers sent a chill down her spine. She approached the board, and one instantly caught her eye. It said to go to the Jade Dragon and ask for a Jeshua LaVonton. Then she saw the pay. Holy crap!, she thought, That's a lot of money. either that guy is rich, or wants this job don fast. She then looked around and saw others reading the sign as well. Well, if i want this job, i better hurry, she thought. She quickly ran off down the beaten trail.
She hit an intersection a few miles from the board, and slowed down to look at the sign. It said the Jade Dragon was of to the left trail, so she ran off again, in the direction of the dim lights. She ran for maybe another mile or so when she entered the outskirts of town. She stopped, to catch her breath, and asked for directions. People looked her strange, as if she had five heads, and told her to follow the flow of people. The people were all heading toward the center of town. When she arrived, she found a huge building, and in front of the door were four people, a succubus, a warrior, what looked like a scholar and a mage. The mage was taller then the two, but the warrior stood taller than the rest. The warrior also wasn't the most pleasant person to look at.
Oh no, i hope those guys aren't trying to fill the spot! She quickly walked over and, although kind of rudely, butted in. "Do you happen to know a Jeshua LaVonton?" She asked.
