Walking into Dandy's shop, Mercedes instantly recognized the dark elf from before. Squinting her eyes while Mono's clone, as well as the monster girls, made their way in, she stared at the owner, who was walking over to a table with two other women sitting across from each other. Placing a hand on the crying mother, the elf spoke words of consolation, and the other girl did the same.
Her mouth covered with one hand, Holly tried to mask her cries, but even so, her voice bled through the gap within her fingers.
"I'm sorry to interrupt, but I can't exactly come back later," breaking her silence, Mercedes turned her head to the counter and began walking towards it, "I need some ingredient for an antidote that we're running low on–people's lives depend on it and the last thing I want for the delay to be blamed on me."
