Sarah had a song book strapped to her hip as she went to the shop. "I wonder if she remembers me at all." She thought before entering the shop. "Okawa, are you here?" She asked allowed.
 
"I see... I just travel since there's been a high number of monster encounters that have been concerning people in villages lately... they've been especially hostile with people recently." Olivia said. "But I'd rather not kill them, so my jobs are a bit harder to complete."

"Oh, welcome to the shop." Lilith greeted the little girl. "Madam Okawa's busy in the back but she should be done soon."
 
Sarah nodded and said "Mind telling her that the songbird is back. She should know that."
 
"Job? What are you, if I made ask?" The man asked Olivia. He noticed the strange girl that appeared in the shop. "What a strange girl..." 
 
Lilith gave a slightly perplexed look, but she retreated to the back of the shop anyway. 

"Oh, me? I guess it's more of a self-employed kinda job." Olivia said. "I travel around different regions mostly to explore and stuff, but I usually run across people who deal with a monster on the loose causing trouble. And they fear it gets out of control. I guess you could call it an Investigator kind of job?"

"Okawa,  there's a little girl here to see you." Lilith spoke as the witch in question was shaping metal and certain stones together. 

"Ah, Lilith! You know not to mess up my focus like that... Oh well. I'm just about finished anyway. Is it a customer?"

"I guess. Something about a Songbird." Lilith replied.

Okawa gave a confused look but handed the finished equipment to Lilith. "Sounds familiar, if only faintly." Her great power came at the price of a poor memory. "Here, take this back to the girl and take care of her. I'll go and see who came to visit me."

The demon took the armored glove into her arms and gingerly carried it out to the shop desk. "Oh, uh, right."

Okawa peeked her head out from behind a curtain that led to the back of the shop. "You called for me?... ah, you're a little one." She said to Sarah. "I'm sorry, I forget your name. Maybe that will bring my memory back a little. You look familiar to me at least."
 
Sarah said "Okawa, its Sarah."
 
The word self-employed ringed his head. How could such a girl at a young age be tackling such a dangerous position? Yet, she doesn’t seems to harbor any sort of fear if she was able to freely travel through different regions on her own.

“Then may I offered you a position to work for our King, temporarily, to deal with a problem?” The man asked.

“We’re currently dealing with a problematic group that seems to be capturing more and more of our people and I was advice to look for capable warriors to hire.” The man turns to Olivia. “I feel a great deal of energy flowing within you… if you’re capable of fighting more than monsters, the King would like for you assistance.”
 
"I've not fought other people nearly as much as I have dealing with monsters..." Olivia murmured. "But your King needs help, I'd gladly lend a hand. It gets intimidating being on my own sometimes as well."

"I think people can be scarier than any monster." She stated. "Is it safe for me to enter that region? I am an outsider but..."

Lilith took her spot at the counter, laying out Olivia's equipment and examining it. She didn't wish to interrupt out of turn, so she curiously looked at the armored glove as they conversed.

This is certainly unconventional to see around these parts. Where'd she get it? Lilith thought.

"Mm...." Okawa closed her eyes for a moment and opened them again. "Yes, I remember now. You were the little one with the songbook. It seems it's been so long since we last met. How are you these days?" She asked the little girl.
 
Sarah said "I've been good, trying to get the whole gang back together, but can't find anyone else. You're actually the first ive found. I can't even find the panther goddess anymore."

The man knew what Olivia was speaking of. Can an outsider really entered a region plagued by an disease? The man looked straight into her eyes. "That, I can confirmed with confidence that you will face no issues upon entering. Being an employee under the King will grant you limitless of protection, from the common folk and the terrible disease." The man stated. "And I can ensure you, the majority of people and monsters will pose no threat towards you."
