Re: Steel Sky (Adelle/Mind Flayer)
"He has his store at the outskirts of the market area, can't miss it." Mariela replied as they started making way towards the mentioned place. Some time passed as they navigated the market, the masses of people slowing the process down somewhat. But after they got out of the central business area, it was a lot easier to get around as the population was less concentrated. Along a large building, there was a row of stores in a line on the street level, the group's destination making itself quite obvious as Adelle's gaze happened upon it. Large plates of metal hung over the windows, painted with bright red kanji. Over the door there was a larger one, the same red paint spelling out the store's name in the most attention-seeking way as possible. Without too much hassle, the girls entered Raijin Blades.
Inside, there was a rather unique facility for making weapons. Old time blacksmith tools and facilities combined with advanced machinery, making it a somewhat bizarre yet still effective workshop for a good enough worker. And this is what Raizan himself looked like, a short and tightly muscled Asian male without a shirt. Like a silly anime stereotype, he also had a long bandanna and spiky black hair, but would most likely be an opponent one didn't want to deal with when he got angry. Despite the store's name, there were other types of weapons available besides swords, a whole variety of different melee combat weapons being stored on racks around the place. Most prominently, two whole racks of naked katana blades stood near the forge, not having any real handles or crossguards to speak of. Everything was tagged with prices, little bits of paper that were wrapped on the weapons showing the prices.
When he saw the girl group, the man was quickly there to meet them, though his attention was firmly focused on Mariela. "Oh Princess! It is good to see you again!" Raizan addressed her, most likely being pretty familiar with the blade sister. Even so, he was very loud. "How are you doing?! Did you come for something particular?! Or just looking?!" he went into business right away, the following show of the broken katana totally freaking him out. "Whaaaaat!? You broke it?! Princess, please! I do sell my blades and it is up to the user how they use them, but dammit, show some respect towards my work!" he flailed and sputtered, grabbing Mariela by the shoulders. It took a decent amount of apologies from the blade sister to calm him down even a bit, and the whole deal with Adelle's tech knife just seemed to go totally past him as she tried to bring the subject up.
