‧₊˚ ⋅ ꒰১ ᯓ ☆ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤ𝑶𝒏𝒄𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒎𝒂𝒏 𝒔𝒂𝒊𝒅 𝒕𝒉𝒐𝒔𝒆 𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒅𝒔, it was so easy to see how the boy's lilac hues would practically LIGHT UP. A Nameless ! This man was one of the Nameless ! Sure, he had met lots and lots of travelers who seen far more planets than he ever hadㅤ—ㅤbut the Nameless were SPECIAL.

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤ❛ㅤC - certainly ! It'd be an HONOR to lead the Nameless through my home ! You've probably already seen the Square since you know about our local man in the trashcan. Most of the businesses are in Bygonevilleㅤ—ㅤwhich is a really unfortunate name but I PROMISE it's nicer than it soundsㅤ❜

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤThe run down square that surrounded the two of them would have probably put most people on edge. The bellboy seemed to be COMPLETELY comfortable as he began to lead the older man into the tiny little shopping district.

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤ❛ㅤYou're probably familiar with the Sweet Dreamㅤ—ㅤbut Dreamflux Reef was established LONG before it ! It's regarded as the center of ALL Dreamscapes ! People here even call the REAL Penaconyㅤ—ㅤbut I guess they're just a little bit bitter about the Sweet Dream.ㅤ❜

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤOnly when the two of them arrived at their destination does the child briefly stop. Most of the shops tucked away in those narrow streets were mere husks of themselves; emptied of everything but dust and trash as well as the occasional Dreamchaser who clearly drank too much Sousa Juice. Though, the shops and bars that were STILL open and the small crowds of people proved there were still fighting to keep it alive. There was even a group of Pepeshi trying to create some street art and bring some color to the place.

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤ❛ㅤHere we are ! You're free to LOOK AROUND and ask me any questions ! The shop with the musical staff I mentioned is here too ! ㅤ❜

“They don’t?” That... actually made a bit of sense. Even as he looked over a few of the dilapidated billboards and the skyscrapers, Welt could get that feeling. It was—disorderly. No real sense of control for what they wanted versus what those that lived here put forward. 

Why give it any attention when they could just as easily shove it behind a curtain and pretend it's not there? It felt so very... Emerald City for some reason. Keeping the image of perfection put forward while no one was allowed to be aware of just what was going on behind the scenes. 

“How very ‘Don’t pay attention to the man behind the curtain’ of them.”  Just a bit of an idle observation note for himself—though he eventually gave the boy a short nod of confirmation. No sense in wasting this kind of an opportunity to try and piece together the secrets. “Well then, as one of the Nameless I’d be quite honored to have the residential point of view tour from a rather resourceful young man such as yourself.” 

Maybe the almost borderline old-man brand of flattering was a bit much, but if Dreamflux really was disliked? Welt could imagine that it chipped away at citizen pride just a little. Now why could that be... 

“Since you are the resident of this area, I’ll let you decide where to take me first.” A beat. “If--there’s also some historical facts that you happen to know about Dreamflux Reef, I’d also be interested in hearing them.”

The job was fulfilling; especially when he got to talk to the NICER guestsㅤ—ㅤbut it was NEVER any fun dealing with the rude ones. He always got so flustered and wound up embarrassing himself even FURTHER. The disappointment and shame with himself was even worse.

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤHearing the galaxy ranger's words though, all of those feelings were quickly reduced to PANIC.

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤ❛ㅤW - wait ! You don't have to do that ! Iㅤ—ㅤI mean, I appreciate your willingness to defend me butㅤ—ㅤVIOLENCE isn't allowed in the Reverie ! I don't want you to get in TROUBLE because of me ! ㅤ❜

Butㅤ—ㅤmaybe it was those Watchmaker instincts; but he had a BAD feeling about this man. Could such a seemingly benevolent person really be the one trying to bring about THE ORDER unto Penacony ?

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤIf that were the case too, it meant that SOMEHOW Gallagher and Sleepie hadn't been able to stop him. And THAT meant he would have to warn the Nameless he had invited to the Charmony festival. He had to worm his way out of THIS first though. Hopefully he was as cool and charming as his Grandpa had been.

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤ❛ㅤWell, that's OKAY ! If Miss Robin prefers to think of me as an ordinary bellboy, I'm fine with that ! Whether I'm just a bellboy or the Watchmaker, I'll do my best to make Miss Robin and the other Dreamchasers of Penacony HAPPY ! ㅤ❜

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤ❛ㅤㅤ—ㅤSpeaking of though, I MIGHT need to tend to some guests soon ! I - I hope you don't mind that, Mister Sunday !ㅤ❜

He knew his sister had only told him, as she was unaware of the alter motives he had in finding the Watchmaker's Legacy, but now with the cat out of the bag like this, he had to wonder if the search had truly been worth it. Why had this child installed such fear in the other members? Surely, if this was all, then they had nothing to fear. They could go ahead with the festival and bring about the blessed future they'd been working this hard for. Yet, there was still that slight touch of doubt that refused to entirely fade. His sister's influence, perhaps.

"If I'm honest, I do not believe she quite understands your significance. It was quite a surprise to find out the truth...but also I am quite delighted to finally get to meet you in person like this. Truly, a blessing from Xipe".

I miss Misha.
