"You there! Stop, please!" 

No, no thanks. Mana was on a mission: a mission to avoid quests. It'd been chaotic since the whole "hey, you're trapped in here glhf" ordeal. Everyone was either scrambling to grind levels to survive, curled up into balls of panic, or simply existing. Mana was part of the latter. 

"Pardon me, but I am in need of some assistance, and you appear quite capable."

Unfortunately, a portly man interfered with her objective to do not a damn thing. He adjusted his monocle and ran fingers along his rather perfectly maintained moustache. 

Mana stared blankly at the NPC. What part of her looked capable? She didn't have any gear that marked her as an adventurer of any kind. 

She didn't know when but there was a moment where she zoned out as the flustered mayor rattled on and on. When a flash of red caught her eye, she momentarily pulled herself from her thoughts. 

Ah, so the NPC had sequestered another player. Mana hummed in thought as she debated accepting the quest. Her gaze glanced at the man, examining him before nodding.

He would make the perfect partner to do the majority of the work for the quest. To be honest, anyone would have been perfect as long as it meant less work for her.

When the pop-up came to accept the quest, she quickly sent him a party request at the same time. Before accepting the quest herself, she smiled at the player as if greeting a long lost friend. She crossed her fingers that he accidentally accepted the party request too. 

"Good to meet you, partner." 

Dorian seemed thrilled to get not one but two people to track down his lost money! 

"Excellent, I knew I could count on you! You might start with Zackariah, the alchemist. He's often doing projects for the town, so it may have been him that borrowed the money."
