WHO: Rose and anyone who runs into her
WHERE: Somewhere between the Junk Pile and the recreational center.
WHEN Few days after her arrival.
WHAT: Just her going out and exploring Haven for the first time.
WARNINGS: None so far.


Walking from Liege Maximo's temple probably would had been too long and tiring. Instead, Rose used her Dragoon armor, and flew towards the were the most activity seemed to be. Using the wings of her armor was still tiring, both physical and mental, but at least it was faster.

Rose landed not far from the Junk Pile, since she was told some supplies could be found there. She deactivated her Dragoon armor, and thus was left in her usual leather armor. Though tired she started to search for the recreational center that Saber told her about earlier.

Swindle knew there was more to Haven but right now? All that mattered to him was the junk pile. It was a treasure trove of things he could use to peddle and barter with, even if it didnt seem like it at first glance. One just had to be...creative was all.

And maybe a little bit of a con too.

He was meandering about the area when he caught sight of the young woman landing not far off, a curious glint in his optics as he watched her armor disappear. Impressive for a humanoid.

"Quit the modifications you have there~" he mused outloud, smirking lazily as he approached Rose, of course being careful due to their vast differences in size. "Make them yourself, friend?"

[originaldragoon]

Rose had just put up her Dragoon Spirit when she heard someone much larger than her approach. She turned around quickly, a bit tense, to see Swindle. When he didn't appear to be a threat, she relaxed some. Perhaps next time she should be more aware of who else would be in the area before summon or put deactivate her armor.

"You mean my Dragoon armor?" she asked, her brow arched some as she looked up at him. It will take some getting used to when it comes to interacting with being much larger than her. "Not quite. I did slay the dragon it came from."

[dirge]

Swindle is not the only one lurking around the junk pile. Dirge has been keeping an eye on the merchant's progress on cataloging the items in the massive hoard and helping with the more strenuous tasks.

Shiny things never fail to catch his optic, and Rose's dragoon armor is no exception. He trails after Swindle, looking disappointing that it was now stowed away.

"You can get armor upgrades from killing dragons?" the jet asks, wondering if they had any of those around here.

[sellyourmother]

"Slayed a dragon, hm?" Swindle mused, arms crossed over his chestplate now, the merchant glancing at Dirge and smirking lazily before he focused his attention on Rose once more.

"Interesting. Can't say I've ever seen something like that before. It's quite unique and very interesting," he added, sweet-talking a bit. "Is it a common thing for where you're from?"

He wants it, oh does he want it, if only because he could easily get a good price for it somehow.

[originaldragoon]

Rose looked back and forth between Swindle and Dirge, and started to get the feeling that she was being surrounded. Of course, that could just be due to their size, but in any case she wasn't going to let her guard down now.

"Not quite," she replied. "It has to be a certain dragons, ones that are masters of the element they draw power from. When they are slain, their soul is crystallized into what is known as a Dragoon Spirit, which is where the armor comes from. There are a total of eight Dragoon Spirits now. On top of that, the Dragoon Spirits choose their masters, so not just anyone can use them."

[dirge]

Dirge frowns in disappointment, crouching to be better able to see the armored human. "That sounds complicated."

Still, she had one and since it was the only one on this planet.... that made it incredibly valuable. Even if he couldn't wear it himself.

The jet glances at Swindle, wondering if the merchant will order him to take it from her.

[sellyourmother]

"Interesting. Sounds rather...unique, in a way," he mused, optics gleaming with want as he smirks lazily at the human. Glancing at Dirge, the Peddler's smirk widens and he nods a bit, tucking his arms behind his back now as he focuses on Rose once more.

Have a charming smirk, darling~

"Even if it's one of those things that not everyone can use, sounds like it could still pull a good price," Swindle said in an almost purr. "All the more reason for us to take it."

[originaldragoon]

Rose gives them a look that clearly says she is wondering if they are really that stupid. It wouldn't be the first time some tries to steal a Dragoon Spirit after all.

"You could try," she warns, not really looking to worried about the threat. "But you may not like the results of such an action."

[dirge]

Dirge grins, moving closer on her right side. It's been a while since he and Swindle have done a good old fashion robbery. Or 'appropriation' if the Boss was feeling fancy. It's strange that she doesn't seem frightened, but he's confident that his sheer size will be enough to overwhelm her.

"Don't struggle too much and I might not accidentally remove any of your limbs," he laughs, reaching for her with the intent of pinning her down.
