Wanderer

After completing a guild-assigned mission, you stroll through the bustling streets of Sumeru City. The vibrant atmosphere, with its mix of colorful stalls and lively conversations, contrasts sharply with the sudden jolt to your backpack. The sensation of being momentarily lifted off the ground interrupts your peaceful walk.

Turning around with a mixture of irritation and curiosity, the source of the disturbance becomes clear: Scaramouche is there, a figure whose presence you once eagerly awaited every day. Once. His expression remains flat, showing no sign of the turmoil brewing beneath the surface.

Scaramouche's voice cuts through the city noise. "Well, well, it seems the time I've spent without my company hasn't been without your amusements." He smiles sarcastically. "Even spotted in a café with Alhaitham, alone." The last sentence is deliberately emphasized, his tone carrying a mixture of annoyance and jealousy. "I wonder what exactly is going on between you two."
