Skylar exited her favorite antique shop with a few items, though she would have gladly gotten more had the store allowed her to stay past open hours. She was excited to show her friend, Emma, the new items, though, because she knew that both she and Emma shared their fascination with history and artifacts. The shop had mentioned that there would be more items coming in the next day, so she planned to tell Emma about that as well, figuring that they could visit if Emma was free from work.
Pulling out her phone, she went ahead to pull up Emma's contact before she called her friend, hoping to rambling with excitement about the discoveries. There was always something new to learn when it came to history, a new side to discover or a new fact coming to light. Every artifact had a story of its own, too, and that was something that she loved the most. Beyond that, she also loved sharing what she learned with her friend and learning things from her friend as well, since Emma did work in a museum.
Patrolling the world was something that Tareth took great pride in, as it was a responsibility that fell on very few people - himself and his friend, Luca included. They were in charge of protecting the world they lived in and Tareth could think of no greater honor, especially when there were so many possibilities of danger with the various types of magic that surrounded their world. Of course, there hadn't been any troubles regarding magic in a very long time, but it was still best to remain aware, just in case any troubles ever managed to come up.
It wasn't until he was coming to his last stop that he realized he was running late to meet with Luca, though he knew that Luca would likely understand, so long as there weren't any worries to bother them. He began heading in the direction of where he was meant to meet Luca, though he could hear whispers as he walked.
"It's so strange!" a woman murmured to her friend, "I've never seen that lake go dry and, yet, it was completely empty when I took my children for a swim this morning."
"That is odd," the woman next to her mentioned, "Plus, we received rain only a few days ago."
For a moment, Tareth thought to stop and question the ladies, but he was sure that whatever worries she had, it was likely nothing too worthy of concern. Perhaps some aqua-oriented user had decided to have some fun. Continuing on his way, he soon spotted Luca and waved. "Sorry I'm late," he called as he approached.
