[First District, Traverse Town. Kanji's spent a little while getting settled in, but he's out and exploring right now, getting his bearings.
Or, at least, he is until trouble hits.
A mob of Nightmares. Nothing spectacular, a gang of Meow Wows, but it's enough to catch him off guard. How can anything so adorable be so vicious...! Then again: he's hardly unfamiliar with getting into a fight. Now, what can he use around here to take those damn things out with...

Shortly after, parked on the steps leading down to the town gates, he'll be making a call to get some more answers while he recovers a bit.]

...anyone getting this? Uh, hi, anyway. Name's Kanji - I got here earlier. And - I've got a coupla questions. About these guys.

[He pans the camera around to show his Pricklemane bouncing happily nearby.]

This little dude saved my ass earlier, but I don't know anything about it. Or about the ones who were trying to eat me. ... That's how it works, right? They're 'Dream Eaters', we're dreaming...

[Kanji logic, everyone.]

So is there anything I need to know? Like, how do I look after this guy? Does anywhere sell food for 'em?

...uh, and does anyone know who owns the café by the 'item' shop? The one with the chairs outside? I ... can't see 'em anywhere but I think I kinda owe 'em some cash.
I just... didn't exactly have anythin' else I could use, here...

Greetings; I am Ienzo.

I'm afraid that no one seems clear on who owns that cafe, but I wouldn't worry about it. I believe others have covered your other questions, but have you found the hotel yet? Or another place to stay?

[realmenknitplushies]

Ienzo. Cool to meet ya.

And - thanks, man. I found the hotel while I was lookin' around earlier. Any other stuff I oughta know about this place? Anywhere else I need to know about? I think I've seen most of it, but I ain't sure.

My friends an I run a tea shop in the fourth district, Miss Rarity designs and sews clothing, and another person makes potions and the like for healing. I think someone else might be doing something as well but I'm afraid I can't recall at the moment.

[realmenknitplushies]

[Someone else who shares his interests? He might just have to look this Rarity up.]

Huh, that's all good stuff. This is all people who've been brought here doin' this, yeah?

[shadearchivist]

Yes, the shops are run by people who have come here, like yourself. The only other option is the moogles, who have a great many things available for sale.

[realmenknitplushies]

[Nodding, here-]

Gotcha. So - if I ever want anythin', and it ain't tea, clothes or heals, ask the fuzzballs. Good to know.

[shadearchivist]

Yes, they're quite helpful people.

[realmenknitplushies]

['People'. Well... Teddie'd been a person, too. Where's the problem?]

They're just gonna be around the place, right?

[shadearchivist]

Yes, you'll mostly see them in the same areas. You can try to contact them over the network as well.

[realmenknitplushies]

[And nodding, here.]

...yeah, makes sense, they gave us these things 'n all. Guess they'd have 'em too.

[shadearchivist]

Is there anything else I can do for you right now?

[realmenknitplushies]

...uh, honestly, I think I'm pretty good for now, man. But thanks. I'm gonna have to visit your shop sometime...

[shadearchivist]

Alright. It was good to meet you.

[realmenknitplushies]

You too.
