Crimson eyes darted back and forth from every shady alleyway and character as the hooded woman made her way down the street. Distinct dragging of chains accompanied her cautious gait. It was hidden beneath her slightly oversized beige cloak, but the the manacles around her ankles were still on her person even if it has been more than some time since she had escaped from her master. She shuddered at the thought of him. Then again, he was the reason why she was in this city, Crocus, to try and get some help from the Rune Knights. As a somewhat foreigner to the country of Fiore, she had heard that they were the military force that kept the peace in this land. Mizuki Kurokawa, a runaway slave, hoped that she wouldn’t be turned away since she wasn’t a citizen… yet. And, well, she also didn’t know what they did to slaves. The working of their government was something she had no knowledge of and Mizuki hoped, just really, really hoped, that they would help her. After a few wrong turns and asking for directions, Mizuki found herself standing before the gates of the Rune Knight headquarters. Well, not really. It was just the building for filing cases and things. Taking a deep breath, she entered the busy building where she was directed elsewhere - Reizo Keiji. A person. A low ranked mage. Mizuki didn’t know whether to be insulted or relieved to be getting such a person. The person at the desk had mentioned that he was good despite his rank. But that was more than half an hour ago and she still found herself turning round and round in circles. Sighing, she plopped down on a nearby bench and huffed. How in the world was she going to find one guy in one whole city? Mizuki had tried looking around the headquarters, but he was either not there or she had missed him by a little. Then she had decided to try and find him by, well, instinct, which was basically… ‘What if he hangs out here?’ or ‘Maybe he’s fond of this kind of foods.’ Just then someone caught her eye. Maybe he knows who this person is and where to find him. Jumping from her seat on the bench, Mizuki jogged up to him, her chains still dragging behind her and now slightly peeking from her cloak. ”Hey! Excuse me,” She called to him, putting on a friendly face. ”Would you mind helping me with something?” Hopefully, he would help, judging from his Rune Knight uniform. ”I’m trying to find this guy…” Rummaging into her inner pocket, Mizuki pulled out a piece of paper and read off a name. ”... R-Reizo Keiji…” Then she raised her head to finally look at the guy she asked, ”Do you know him?”NOTE: Tagging matthias. Here's your thread. You're the guy she's talking to, btw. :)
