Re: The South Gate
Jesus Christ, this place is busy.
I stare at the hundreds of commuters moving through the South Gate, boarding the trains, buying tickets from the lines or just sitting at the cafes and resteraunts at the sides of the huge station. Normal, everyday life; no wars, no Rift Storms, no end of the world...
Fuck, I'm dwelling again. I begin to move through the crowds in search of the boy. He will have made for the lines as soon as he got here, not wanting to waste any time buying a ticket out of the city, so this is where I move to first. There are dozens of lines, though, and more people than I can count. This is going to take more than skill to find Porg; I'm going to need a hell of a lot of luck.
Attempting to push through a group of commuters, I am knocked to the side slightly, and knock into the table with three people sitting around it, and an old man seated behind them. Pushing myself, I mutter my apologies before moving off again, not making eye contact with any of them. I'd rather draw as little attention as possible to myself, if I can. This confrontation with Porg could go one of two ways, and one will involve him attacking and me defending myself, so I'd rather as few people as possible get a good look at me.

Slightly unnerved by the crowds, Grant begins to search the South Gate for Porg, moving for the ticket kiosks first. He is knocked into Faramond, Aki and Ayas' table, and after quickly muttering his apologies moves away without making eye contact with them, not wanting to be seen too closely.
