A calm walk is all you had expected when you'd ventured out to Yashiori Island, but instead you had happened to stumble upon a young boy, no older than eight, calling out to you as though he were an expert salesman..

"Hey you, come look! Here I have the best Jakotsu Crystal in all of Yashiori Island! Goods of this quality are sent straight to the Shogunate, and you can use it to make a weapon that slices through steel!"

He had smiled widely as though this were natural for someone his age, his hand gesturing to the straw basket beside him filled with Crystal Marrow..

"You can get five crystals for 300,000 Mora, or fifteen crystals for 900,000 Mora!"
