((Continued from here))
The decent into the village was a quiet one. The clank and whirling of pulleys could be heard echoing a little above them the deeper they went but this was all a dull hum more than ambient noise. Yume had gone sheet white as she watched Uri leap over the edge and nodded wide-eyed in agreement with Sunako. That person to clean up would probably be her. She had done a couple of autopsies before but with the cause of death so plain, it wouldn't be required. She would be the unlucky one simply because she was rather comfortable in the morgue. It wasn't her favorite place but the dead didn't argue. It was the same reason she enjoyed working on cadavers for research. Peering over the edge, she sees Uri reach the bottom and disappear down a corridor. The breath she didn't realized she had been holding was finally granted release as she exhaled slowly. That would have indeed put a damper on the good mood that had been sparked by his mention of treats. Leading the way into the middle class area of town, Yume would point out the Kage tower, school, and distant ruins of the hospital as far as they could be seen. Idle chatter filled the streets around them and and Inuzuka was sure to keep her ears and eyes open for pickpockets and any unsavory types. This far from the Grand Palais there shouldn't be much trouble but occasionally riffraff would try to take advantage of the unwary. Never having been one for small talk, she tries her hand at it in an attempt to perhaps solidify a friendship beyond the common bond of food.
Sunako, what did you do outside of the village?
She would listen to her response, curious about what it was like away from the storms and the unyielding sun. When she was young, there were times that her father would tell her stories of his homeland; a place where it was frequently overcast and often rained more than in Wind Country. The tales had stuck with her and one day she hoped to take a journey, even if it was just a short one, to see the world... perhaps on a peace-keeping mission like her father... and she would fall in love and be swept away in romance. Giving her head a shake, she knew now was not the time for day dreaming. It would be rude to those around her.The normal crowed of little children were gazing through the glass of a small store. Painted across the window in twisting cursive was the store name "Senit-mints" with the words "sweets & eats" beneath it in the same writing but smaller. Placing her hand on the metal cross-bar, Yume pushes the door in ward to be greeted by a chiming bell that had been hung above the portal. All of the human senses seemed to be at work here. The aromas of different fudge, cakes, cookies, toffees, tarts, and other delectable things filled the Inuzuka's nostrils which in turn teased her taste buds with hints of what was to come. A faint upbeat tune could be heard from the back of the store that was almost folksy but it most certainly wasn't Sunan in origin. A deep baritone voice could be heard singing along but so loud that the owner couldn't hear the entrance of customers. A kerfuffle could be heard in the back and before long their eyes were greeted by a tall, broad-shouldered man with a bushy mustache that curled up at the ends. His eyes were slightly squinted in an exuberant smile and his arms held wide to greet the room as he made his appearance.
AH! Pretty ladies! I am Olgav, but my friends... they call me Ollie. This is my store. Welcome. What can I do for you?

((OOC: For anyone wondering, Ollie is probably german or perhaps has an eastern European accent. I couldn't find a voice clip I liked. Basically, his speech might not be broken but he does speak with odd pauses, if that makes sense xD ))
