Alys
And it's like snow at the beach
The man looked up, deliberate in his actions in a way that almost reminded Alys of Deimos. He had a certain shrewdness about him that made the seer immediately wary - not because she begrudged him the acumen, but because she wasn't that good a haggler, and she worried that she wouldn't get a good deal. He wasn't one of the merchants she knew from times long since past, and with that lack of familiarity came concern for the unknown.
At least she had her magic to rely on. She could feel him assessing her as he answered, a curiosity in him that made the seer think twice about her initial instinct to put her hackles up. A wind gusted past, and she shivered, pulling her coat more tightly around her. Then she laughed at his astute assessment, dark eyes sparkling over her scarf. "Gods, I know. You'd think I'd know better after I lived here once upon a time, but I suppose time away has made me soft."
In any case, she considered his query for but a moment before she spoke. "Buy. Unless you'd be interested in a tarot reading, in which case I'd be happy to strike a trade. I'm a seer. Alys Glasse," she added by way of introduction. He might have heard of her - the Fateweaver - but one never could tell. Especially in Halo, where she'd found people in general to be skeptical of her skills. "What price were you looking to get for it?"
