Recently, their eyes had been opened. After discovering the curious trading shop in the center of the market, Zenjesi had embarked on a frantic search of all of the stores in the City. Each time, the saytr would enter a shop with their senses highly tuned. They would reach out with their soul, smell and taste the air, and had so far left each disappointed. A simpler and probably more acceptable response would have been to inquire of the shopkeeper if their establishment sold or traded for magical crystals. Zenjesi was too single-focused to think of such a thing now. As they entered The Underground with the same purpose, they suddenly felt the familiar tingling sense. Their eyes locked onto the shopkeeper. How had they missed this the first time? Without further hesitation, they scampered up to the counter, pulling gems from their bag and scattering them across the counter. "Please, for an earth crystal, perhaps?"

Kor always liked to look over the gems customers offered him. There was something special about the fact that each one was just a little unique. He greeted the new customer, but his eyes were fixed on the counter full of gems. Something about this person made him feel strange, so he would rather deal directly with the gems.
"Let's see, I can give ya the Earth Crystal and... 8 credits, that work for you?"

The shopkeeper may have said something, but it sounded like small talk and so Zenjesi unconsciously disregarded it. They stood stock still and unmoving, watching intensely as the man sifted through the goods that Zenjesi had placed before him. With the research they had done, they had learned to identify what each gemstone was by name. They were even aware of each stone's relative rarity; this was how they had collected this offering for the shopkeeper today. But it was only as they watched him inspect them one by one that they realized there were nuances they knew nothing about.
Were their gems in good repair? They had intended to be careful with their extraction but they could not say if they had been. Was it a question of quality completely outside of their control? As he finally presented his counter-offer, the satyr let out a held breath of relief. "Yes, this pleases me greatly."

"Alright, then," Kor said. He thought that response was a little much, but he didn't comment on it. Instead, he placed a handful of credits and a glowing green crystal onto the counter. "Here ya go."
