It had taken her so long to finish this job. All that hard work an effort. Only for some random mercenary group to come an snatch it all away. Right from under her. She had failed. It would mean another night outside wherever she could find a place to rest. Hoping she would be safe. Sleeping lightly tonight.

She sighed heavily as she sat down on a nearby bench. At least the weather in Thanalan was never too terribly bad for sleeping outside. A frown crossed her features at the sound of paper crinkling beneath her. Her ears twitched as she moved to pick up the scrap left on the bench. Words were written upon it.

“It will get better.” 

Her tail swished softly behind her as she looked at the words. A bit of hope when days were rough. She didn’t know if this had been for her or if she had just chanced upon it. But… It was still a ray of light on a very dark day.

“Things will get better.” She hummed softly to herself as she curled up on the bench. Today was just a bad day. Tomorrow she could try again. Give everything a fresh shot again. There was no giving up. She had a dream to strive for.
