"And it's not eavesdropping if you're in a public place."

"It is if you weren't invited into the conversation. Just being out in the open doesn't mean it's fair game," he said with a shrugged. "I honestly don't care either way, I was just giving you a hard time."

She took a bite of the apple still in her hand. "Everythings fair game out in the open," She mumbled through a mouthful of apple.
"What's your business in my town anyway?" She asked after swallowing. "We don't get too many like you around these parts."

"Like I said, I was just walking through. Felt the spell, and decided to look around for a bit."

Hi, I'm Athena. What do you mean? I must admit I'm very confused." The girl next to Runner had spaced out, and was surprised to see someone shorter than her. ((Sorry, food

((Lol I understand

"I'm Evelyn, but you can call me Eve." Eve tossed the apple core into a nearby trash can, kicking off the wall she'd been leaning on and walking closer. "By the way, I'm joining this conversation now so I'm no longer eavesdropping"

"What spell are you talking about?" Athena was curious. Maybe this had something to do with her missing friends.

Eve glanced at her suspiciously. "I don't know If you've noticed or not but this town isn't normal. It's nowhere close to normal. The magic surrounding it is extremely strong. I came here looking for the guy who killed my sister, but honestly, I don't think my meager fire magic stands a chance."

"Funny, I came here looking for my friends, but as far as I know, none of them are murderers. Not… actively, anyway."

"I doubt your friends are murderers. It's the guy that runs this place, he's a cold-blooded killer." She pointed to a large house on the top of the hill. "Over there, that's his hideout. At least, I think it is. I've only been spying on it for a week though."

"Is he, you know, magic? The one that put the spell on this place?" A week was a long time, it seemed, but she supposed it made sense if Eve was spying.

"Yeah." Eve returned her attention to Athena. "You're looking for your friends, right? Did they have any… talents? Were any of them especially strong? Or powerful?"

"No, they're all human, except one of them is a werewolf. But she's pretty peaceful. They left a trail of clues, so it seems highly unlikely they were taken, but I'm not sure why they would come here of all places." Her brow wrinkled.

He rubbed his chin, listening to the two.

Eve shook her head. "It's pretty boring here anyways." She muttered. "And I think they're onto me." She glanced at Athena once more and sighed. "I'll help you find your friends." She announced. "If you'll let me tag along."

"I'll help too," Runner offered.

"Sure. I only just got here. I could use a girl that knows her way around." Not wanting to be rude, she looked at Runner. "You wanna come?"

((oops sorry

((Who's Eli?

((Mixing up characters here

Eve crossed her arms. "Have you got a place to stay the night set up already, or what?" She gestured to the setting sun.

"I have no idea where to start," she admitted. "The last clue pointed to this town, but nowhere in it."

"Yeah, a little hotel about half a mile from here. Meet back in the morning?"

He shrugged. "I'll just chill out in an alley."

"I'll stick with my alley."
