Oz didn't believe in this Oracle bullshit.
There was no possible way that an Oracle would be able to help her with her problem. Sure, there was magic in this world that Oz begrudgingly coexisted in, but fortune tellers were nothing but mumbo jumbo liars, waving fancy cards in front of your face like an idiot.
But so far, Oz hadn't a clue where to go. She'd been to damn near every apothecary (which she loathed doing as well, considering the magical works behind every potion) around. Every last one of them only had things that could stall the infection, but nothing that could cure it. Oz figured that, by visiting an Oracle, she could find another lead. Maybe this crackpot had friends in high places. At least, Oz hoped so.
She made her way through the crowds none too gracefully, forcing herself around them and shoving multiple out of the way. A huge, lit pipe hung from her lips, trailing whispering smoke behind her. Oz hated big crowds, and this one was no exception. She glared at every passerby that dared look at her, keeping one hand on the pipe and blowing gray smoke in their faces, forcing them into a coughing fit. It gave her at least a slight amount of satisfaction.
Much to her chagrin, there was already a big group at the door. A motley crew of youngsters, just recently accompanied by a rather intimidating-looking old man. Oz raised a thick black eyebrow in irritation, looking not unlike a caterpillar crawling up her face. Her thin-lipped mouth set into a frown as she growled lightly, expressing her distaste. Part of her wanted to wait until they all left, but she just wanted to get the whole thing over with. Oz opted to lean against the wall of the building, folding her arms and closing her eyes.
