The sun was just peeking over the horizon in the small town of Avondale. The warm rays would not be the only thing coming to visit the townsfolk, however. Unbeknownst to the citizens, the new merchants they were anticipating to come bring business to their humble town were merchants of an entirely different sort. Though mere initiates now, should they succeed in their assignment, they will be fully fledged demons capable of exchanging valuables for souls. Ah, but they had a long way to go before they could be trading such goods. For now, their currency was the common copper piece, their services ones that mortals would provide.
Our aspiring demon capitalists have rented a mule to carry their wagon of goods. It cost them a good bit of copper, but it was necessary to bring everything with them. They had assumed their human hosts outside of the city at an inn not far down the road, and were coming to Avondale for the very first time.
As they approached the town's entryway, made evident by the guard who was keeping watch, Milo made his relief very apparent. Letting out a quiet breath, he said, "We've made it. I had feared bandits might attack us while we were in transit." Indeed, he had made a point of keeping an eye out as they traveled, hardly participating at all in any conversation that might have taken place during the journey.
