[ The stalls do somehow seem easier to manage than the stores themselves, which can be crammed with any number of items. Fern suspects that some of these people make a living by collecting items from outside the city and bringing them back here to sell — scavengers of a sort.

It still seems like this Lucina is also recently arrived, and similarly confused about the way things work here. She might not be a bad person to know. ] I'm Fern. [ She gives a small nod, but then her brow furrows as she grimaces. ] And... I'm sorry, that you were dragged into all this.
[ Hopefully it truly is worth it for them to invest in these phones. ]
