With flowing silks and a long cloak of white draped over his shoulders one would forget that the Zora was native to the sea with the way he tread land so easily. The only reason it was quite obvious that he was a fish out of water was the way he left behind wet, sodden footprints in the sand as his body seemed to drip with every movement. The man never resisted the chance to take a dip in a pool of water, or in their case: a lonely ram's through.
"Would you hurry?" He bit, short of patience. "We'll miss the market rush if you drag your feet." Though he was known as Sinnie by many, there were a choice few who were given pass to call him 'Nex', a nickname from his delinquent youth.
With how well and proper the man dressed one could be forgiven for never coming to the conclusion that Nex had been quite the rat bastard growing up. He wore a worn satchel over his shoulder, partially hidden beneath his cloak to deter pickpockets, and in hand a soggy parchment. On his left shoulder sat a crow wearing a harness and tether, which was looped around a metal ring that snapped in front of the Zora's cloak. He had traveled all this way not for leisure, but the sweet embrace of the morning markets where rare and dubious goods often passed hands in order to find their forever home with collectors, criminals, and castaways. Nex was the latter. His blue eyes peered back to his companion, whom he had requested assistance from. A fish heading to a desert alone was suicide as the heat very quickly tired him out.
There were many things to see and do out here in Sonata Oasis. Not only could one find rare wares that were, more often than not, lost to the hands of time, one could get sweet treats and find curious beasts doing tricks for crowds. Rupee was always flowing and that sometimes meant scams were lurking in the shadows. The biggest scam going on this week was a Heroic Gauntlet. The hawker declared that it was nigh unbeatable, that it was a right of legendary heroes, but given the state of some of its balance poles and questionable color of the moat one needed to swim across there was great doubt that this was any sort of trial a hero would want to partake in.
