You hope Scholar sees your reasoning for it.
"Hmm, you've devised an interesting plan. How about transport?"
It was a tough choice between calling on Ling and looking for a public transportation, but you've come to a decision.
"Well... this is a stealth mission, so Ling would tattle on us to Rosa! So let's find a public ride!"
"Mm, logical. Lead the way, there should be plenty in this street."
Soon after, you find an interesting one: a beltrider, modified to hold a sideseat. You've rarely seen one in New Avalon, and the driver is a curious one - a goblin as big as an orc, and with a tusk like one, too! Or is she an orc with a goblinish face? Must be a cross, like your mother, but different.
"Hey, kid! Looking for a ride?"
Without further deliberation, you happily reply.
"Yeah!"
The orc then stoops down to regard you.
"Name's Gill Gortha. Where to?"
"Oh, uh, I'm Craig Snorlison. Is that the nearest abandoned tower? I wanna look around."
"Sure is! Are you on an adventure? Looks a bit young, but then again, I went adventuring when I was roughly your age."
She adjusts he goggles so it covers her eyes, then motioned you to step into the sideseat, chatting the whole time.
"Snorlison, eh? Wor, I know a Sanya Snorlison during my time at Hexbourne."
What! She knew your mom?! This is big news! Suddenly, a lot of questions bubble in your head, and unluckily (luckily?) only a couple actually left your mouth.
