Seeking Peepers

Image
The shore is inhabited by many creatures and hazards, thanks to the fact that the entire northern portion of the continent is hostile territory. The locals built a village on the shallow waters. This village is a collection of huts that were built to withstand the tides and attacks. They can readily do so, as the waters are shallow far from the shore on this side of the Abyssal Sea. Despite their peaceful, almost pacifistic appearance, the village is well-defended.

Crevasseus's thoughts ran wild with images of all the things he could do once again.

"It is, it glimmers nicely in this lighting. Please keep it. Think of it as a token of my appreciation."

Crevasseus had thought his sight was lost indefinitely. In his opinion, this was a miracle of medicine. Most doctors back home would have melted his lids shut permanently.

۞Jen-Rumma was having none of that. She continued to hold the coin and motion it toward Crevasseus's hands.۞

Oh, no. It doesn't matter how you're feeling right now; I quoted you a priced for a job, and that price is what you're paying. It's a matter of policy. In fact, if my colleagues from my origin land found out about it, this would cause me a lot of trouble, you know?

‾▿‾That caused Tori and Nadia to wonder about those that were back in their own realm. With her nomadic lifestyle, Nadia didn't have a lot to worry about beyond failing to reunite with friends with whom she was supposed to reunite, but Tori had much to ponder. Nadia could tell where Tori's mind headed: friends, family, and pets flew through her thoughts, each with their own worries.‾▿‾

"If you insist... I suppose."

Back in his homeland, Crevasseus knew greed and money lust ran overly rampant, so to him this was both shocking and slightly insulting. Nevertheless, he opened his right palm and cocked his head in apology. The only images that popped into Crevasseus's thoughts were those of his former comrades . . . their butchered bodies, the cause of his rage at his home world. He couldn't empathize with her on the point of her colleagues.

۞The doc bucked up with a heartwarming smile with her hands on her hips.۞

Hey, don't get so glum! The legal restrictions from my origin land are of little concern here. You should enjoy your eyesight; go out and see the worlds! You know who to come back to when you want to see more.

‾▿‾Tori and Nadia just gave a cheesy smile and a thumbs-up each. Actually, Nadia did one more thing.‾▿‾

"Thank you Doctor. When will I be able to see without a spell? And thank you two for everythi..."

Crevasseus had been turning his head in the direction of Tori and Nadia while speaking. Upon seeing them for the first time his face went sheet white and his palms started to sweat. Gawking, his gaze fell onto whom he assumed to be Nadia and he went even paler.

That's THEM?!?

Crevasseus could feel the space in his trousers beginning to shrink but didn't dare show it.

Stammering, he thanked the doctor again and proceeded to pass out once more.

You'll need a full day in town with that blindfold on to adjust, and after that, your eyes will be working perfectly. It's now 8:37 day, so dusk will be soo- Eh, wha . . .?

۞Jen-Rumma had no idea how to react to what sounded like "Ahrmer-ferrgle-ijjoo, phaanxyuu, bwauh . . ." so she just stared at the now surprisingly unconscious man. She looked up at the girls, pointed down at him, and declared,۞

I didn't do that.

Uh, oh, geez, is he okay?

‾▿‾Tori was too observant, though.‾▿‾

He's fine. We'll give him a minute, and if he doesn't wake up right away, is it fine if we leave him here while we wander around town?

Visions of triple X rated content filled Crevasseus's mind.

Hey, give the guy a break, reader. He's been alone a long time.

۞She checked her watch.۞

Uh, yeah, okay, but I'll need you to move him to another furniture piece if he's not gone in the next twenty minutes or so. I have an appointment at 9, so if the guy shows up a few minutes early, I want my work chair clear, you know?

Yeah, no problem. I'll move him if he doesn't come to his senses.

‾▿‾Tori approached Crevasseus and gently slapped his face four times.‾▿‾

Yo, we're leaving!

‾▿‾Nadia set a more relaxing tune to wake up to.‾▿‾

Crevasseus's head jolted back to life and he avoided "eye contact" with the girls out of embarrassment. Once again unable to see, he was back in the blackness to which he was accustomed.

"Uh, hey. Right."

He gathered his composure and stood awkwardly.

۞She just shrugged and bade the group adieu with a bright smile and her hands folded.۞

Right, then. Well, it was a pleasure doing business with you! You know where to find me when you next want optical work.

Yes, thank you!

Aye, there's no telling what sight mods we may need as long as we're in this new realm. We'll leave you to your next appointment, then. Come on, Crevasseus; it's after 8:40 day, and she has an appointment.

‾▿‾Tori gently, but forcefully lifted Mr. Horndog and set him on his feet. She held him up while he got square.‾▿‾

Time to stretch your legs.
