Tal listened with interest as Sohalia listed what she was looking for in the gift, and he nodded along in appreciation for her choices. Trailing after the Luminary and the apprentice, he peered over Soh's shoulder before wandering nearby to look at some of the other options in the cases. He was quick to come back when he heard the price changing hands and he whistled in admiration at the glittering bracelet that had been chosen.
"I think she'll love it! Y'got a good eye for this stuff." He nudged her with his shoulder and Boreal, not to be left out, padded forward to lean against Soh's knee with a happy rumble.
The apprentice finished settling the transaction and bustled between the smith and the journeyman, then returned with a smile for the courier. "We'll have your piece ready tomorrow, sir. Can you come back then?"
"Sure, no problem," Tal assured them with a wave before turning back to Soh. "Let's go find somethin' t'eat. I'm gettin' hungry, an' there's this great cafe boat nearby..." He started to lead the way back up the stairs, and the back of his neck prickled as he remembered the sound from earlier. He looked all around once they got back on deck, but he didn't see anything and the breeze was quiet again. Maybe he'd just imagined it...?
