Today's lovely morning sun had awoken Syn with its light shining directly into her eyes. Perhaps investing into that sleeping mask head piece Wish had mentioned would be helpful. At the same time, something about covering her eyes, even at her own will, inspired a tad bit of nervousness in Syn. It didn't really matter anymore; in the end, she was awake. It was time to get to work. Leaving her dorm room, Syn went up to the first floor of the ship. She had been staying on the S.S. Endeavor for only a couple weeks now, as it was an efficient place to live and complimentary considering she was a current member of Meliora Vitae. The common areas here often had boards where jobs were posted, and today was a work day for Syn.
Immediately catching her eye, a "Help Wanted" poster with an image of an emaciated anthropomorphic amphibian had Syn rotating her body towards it and then striding forwards with interest. She wasn't aware of this group of people...or hybrids, or demons, or whomever they might be. However, much as the job requester probably intended by including such an image, her conscience was pricked.
"Starving due to overfishing...that's a problem not easily solved." After all, it wasn't as though she could easily pass a law in Cedar that would force them to fish less. Even if such a thing was possible over time, the extended period of legislation would likely end with the Kappa nearly, if not completely wiped out, and the people in Cedar losing portions of their wealth and livelihood as well. "Is anyone interested in finding a solution with me for these Kappa?" Glancing around the commons area, Syn saw a few guild members in the vicinity. She often worked alone, but company could make everyone's lives safer and complete the quest with greater efficiency.
