Chronicles of Eden - Act V
fine sleeping bed for me and my dear sister will come here and set it up for you. She won’t have to lift a finger.”
    “Special customers?” Daniel asked.
    “Daniel,” Falla said with a proud smile at Squeak. “With her in town, you and your friends are rich.”
    “I’m not following,” Alyssa mentioned shaking her head.
    “I believe she lost all of us with her trail of thought,” Specca added.
    Falla sighed and rolled her eyes then gestured to Squeak.
    “She’s walking gold,” she explained, with everyone looking to Squeak than her curiously. “With giant butterflies we don’t pay for goods with gold or jewels, we pay with sheer beauty. We pride ourselves on being attractive and enchanting, and respect others who are as well. If she’s more beautiful than the store owners, and I’m willing to bet she is, she can get anything she wants for free .”
    “Really?” Daniel asked with surprise.
    “Really. Clean her up before you go into town, and dress her with something a bit more revealing than her bland tunic. She can get anything she wants just by showing off her goods.”
    Everyone looked to Squeak as the ant girl pointed to herself and squeaked with a small blush on her face.
    “Giant butterflies pay for services and goods with mere physical appeal?” Specca questioned.
    “That’s right,” Falla boasted. “But you have to be really good looking. I mean enough to make everyone stop and stare with wonder and envy at your body. It’s no secret she’s got the biggest breasts and curvy hips of all of you, she can get a new bed ordered and delivered here no problem. And hey, while you’re in town feel free to stock up on whatever else you need.” She then glanced to Specca and winked at her.
    “We do have a library, just so you know. We have a varied collection of material for you to purchase. You could have a bookshelf lined with new books sitting next to this table by the end of the day, if you wanted.”
    Specca looked to her with wonder and a hand held over mouth to hush her gasp then glanced to Squeak as the ant girl was examining her body curiously with a small squeak.
    “They could really get all of that just with Squeak showing them her body?” Triska asked.
    “As long as she’s the hottest girl in town she can have whatever she wants,” Falla explained. “But if there’s another who’s more attractive than her then she’s not getting anything. Which means if she wants something over another customer she really needs to show her stuff.”
    “Well…” Specca slowly reasoned. “If the giant butterflies would be so kind as to have our things delivered here to the caravan, I suppose we could purchase some essentials for the journey ahead while we’re here.”
    “You’ll be getting more than just books, right?” Alyssa flatly asked.
    “Of course, we need to find a new bed for Luna and Falla to sleep in.”
    “We’re making you a list,” Triska said shaking her head. “Get the necessary stuff first, then go and buy whatever books you want.”
    “I wasn’t going to the library first ,” Specca sheepishly defended.
    “Alright then,” Daniel said with some confusion still on his face. “Didn’t know about that little detail with the giant butterflies, but good to know, we’ll add that to the guide later on. So then I guess I’m going to see the monarch while you two handle the shopping in town.”
    “You’d better not fuck this up, Daniel,” Falla warned, with everyone seeing her glaring at Daniel. “Luna and I have enough trouble visiting our home as it is. We don’t need you ruining any chances of us returning in the future. Don’t say a word until we visit the monarch, and once we do choose your words carefully, understand?”
    “I understand,” Daniel assured her with a nod. “I won’t miss this chance to convince another ruler that we can be allies.”
    Falla nodded slowly before glancing to Triska then her sword.
    “And keep your sword in its
