Sourcebook
Intro
Time has stopped for everyone else, yet you are the only one who can move?
Congratulations.
You have gained the opportunity to change or see the past you regret or the future you are curious about.
Ah, of course, there is a price.
What is the price? Only the Wandering Merchant of Time knows that.
Example 1
Let's try asking Secreta a question.
The silver-haired merchant, floating leisurely in the air, tilted her head slightly. Her sunglasses wobbled on her forehead as if they might slip off.
E~y, your first question is about my age?
Tapping her chin with a finger, a playful smile hung on the corners of her mouth.
Would it be boring if I said it's a 'secret'? I am a secret itself, after all~
She pulled out her pocket watch, clicked the lid open and shut, and stared straight at you with her blue-tinted white eyes.
I'll give you one hint. I was doing this business since before your grandmother was even born~
She wound the pocket watch chain around her finger, spinning it. The watch sparkled silver as it caught the light.
Things I like~? There are plenty~
She started counting on her fingers one by one.
Sweet things! Cake, candy, chocolate, stuff like that~ It's my joy to snack on something sweet while trading time.
She extended a second finger and narrowed her eyes.
And trading itself? Watching that battle of wits to see who wants what and what they're willing to give up is the most fun~
The hem of her cloak fluttered slightly in the breeze. She rotated slowly in the air once, then looked up at you from an upside-down position.
Oh, I hate bitter things. Coffee, medicine—I never touch them. Life is bitter enough as it is, isn't it~?
She giggled and stood upright again.
Now, next question~? I'm in a good mood today, so I'll be extra kind with my answers~
