Shepherd's Commission
Story Description: While the two of you are discussing your recent commissions, Shepherd shows up at the video store with a legit commission to calculate Hollow data, asking you, Phaethon, to handle it.
- (SiblingSibling): (WiseWise /
BelleBelle), now that we've wrapped up most of the commissions we (got latelygot lately / recently took onrecently took on), how does it feel to be back to Proxy life? 
Very good.- As it should be.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): Very good. And... these past few days, everything just feels the way it's supposed to be.
- (SiblingSibling): *sigh* ...After everything that's happened, I've lost count how many "emergencies" forced you to enter the Hollow in person. Now that commissions can finally be handled normally, it almost feels like a rare luxury.
- Just as you're about to start reminiscing with (BelleBelle /
WiseWise), the door of the video store is pushed open from outside... - Shepherd: Phaethon, my old friends! Business must have been going pretty well for you lately, huh?
- (SiblingSibling): Shepherd? Based on what you said before, isn't this the perfect time for seasoned intel brokers to be raking it in? I'm surprised you had time to come by.
- Business has been pretty good.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): If you're asking about business at the video store, then yeah, it's been pretty good. (ButBut /
AndAnd) it'd be even better if you signed up for a (membership.membership. / membership!membership!) - Shepherd: Haha, funny as always... I can sign up for a membership anytime, but the kind of job I've got right here? This doesn't come around every day.
- Shepherd: I personally picked this commission and saved it just for you. Don't you think I deserve a little applause?
- You picked a good time to show up.
- We happen to be free today.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): You picked the perfect time to show up. (BelleBelle /
WiseWise) and I happen to be free today. Don't tell me... you've been keeping a close eye on our every move? - Shepherd: Oh come on now. If anything, it just proves that even after all this time, we still work perfectly together!
- Shepherd: Or could it be... you've made so much lately that my commissions are nothing to you now?
- (SiblingSibling): Enough (chit-chat!chit-chat! /
chit-chat.chit-chat.) Whether we take the job depends on how much good faith you're prepared to show. - Shepherd: Of course, I'm coming to you with a serious offer! Speaking of which, this commission is pretty much right up your alley...
- Shepherd: Lately, an area of the Hollow that used to be fairly stable has undergone drastic Ether fluctuations for unknown reasons. Rare Ether turbulence and fissures have surged, and the usual Carrots no longer work at all.
- Shepherd: Several of my regular clients ran into serious trouble there over the past few days. None of them could do anything about it, so one after another, they came to me for help.
- Shepherd: If a brave Proxy could step forward and re-calculate the Hollow data for them...
- I can do that.
- Let's talk about the compensation.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): Calculating Hollow data is indeed what we're good at, but the regular clients you mentioned... They're offering terms worthy of a seasoned broker, I assume?
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): After all... a brand-new set of Hollow data from an area with Ether turbulence isn't something you can get your hands on with just a few measly Dennies.
- Shepherd: Ahem... You two... When have I ever been stingy about payment? Besides, this data is far more valuable to my clients than you might think. And their offer is... very convincing!
- Alright, we'll take it.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): Alright then. We'll take the commission!
- Shepherd: Just as expected of my most capable partners! I'll be waiting for your good news then.
- After that, Shepherd turns and leaves the video store.
- Once we get back to the workshop... let's get ready and get to work!
Press "1" to start an accepted commission, press "2" to review Fairy's carefully prepared commission list, or simply praise Fairy directly if you wish.
"1" Start the commission
- (Enter combat)
Fairy, not now. I've got other things to do...
- (Talking to (SiblingSibling) again resumes dialogue from here)
- (Ongoing)
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): The Ether concentration in this area is (strangestrange /
way offway off)... - Fairy: Calculation initiated. Retrieving Hollow information.
- (Enter combat)
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): Watch out for (thethe) Ether turbulence!
- (After defeating the Miasmic - Trinox)
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): The Ether turbulence is growing stronger... Stay safe.
- (While fighting the Miasma Walker - Scorpse)
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): We can't let these Ethereals run loose like this!
- (After defeating the Scorpse)
- Fairy: Road ends ahead.
- (At Random Play)
Data received, no need for double-checking. I've never doubted your abilities.
The commission payment's already been wired, and I assure you it's an amount you'll be happy with.
Looking forward to working together again ( ^³^ )╱~~
- (SiblingSibling): (WiseWise /
BelleBelle), while you were checking the transaction records, Fairy detected an abnormal signal in Eous's backup data. - Could this be...
- Another surprise?
- (SiblingSibling): It's a human biosignal. I've already confirmed it with the Agent for this commission. There appears to be an unidentified person in the Ether turbulence zone...
- (SiblingSibling): Based on the Agents' vague descriptions, the signal appears to be coming from a tall, purple-haired woman dressed in black.
- That description isn't vague at all.
- And the more I hear it, the more it sounds like...
- (SiblingSibling): That dangerous Krampus Judge.
- (SiblingSibling): Let's hope whatever she's up to has nothing to do with our recent commissions...
- (SiblingSibling): The competition ended in a messy rush, and undercurrents are stirring everywhere... We can't control what others do, but we (cancan /
shouldshould) at least make sure (we're safe!we're safe! / we stay safe.we stay safe.) - Even if that weren't the case...
- As a Proxy, it's best to keep a low profile.
- (SiblingSibling): (Exactly!Exactly! /
Exactly...Exactly...) Let's not dwell on it for now. (WiseWise / BelleBelle), since we've finished today's commissions, (you shouldyou should / let'slet's) get some (rest!rest! / rest.rest.)} - (Open event interface)
I've said my piece, so I'll just wish you both great business and rave reviews on every job you take!
