{{ I know I said I'd do Alyssa next, but that's given me issues, lots of issues.... I would do Kia, but she's a bit complecated, and like Alena (whom I skipped long before now) I plan to do big things with her story (in other words, a novel, instead of being just another novella), so I don't want to give too much away about her. So, ya, I'm just going to start blabing about the story Pea comes from...

Now then, Pea isn't the main character of this story (no title.... Ideas anybody?), that would be Baffin (a Penjagan thief) who ends up as Pea's love interest. The other main characters are Peach (Ignotaque Terran new comer) Icicle (Lumi Harian equivalent of a private detective), Royse (Igunotaque Terran huntress), Lorelei (Penjagan jeweler), Pace (Ignotaque Terran tracker), and Glaciate (Lumi Harian warrior). They all seem like an odd group if you just know their careers (oh, and Pea is like Icicle, but on a lesser scale. She does things like rescue cats from trees, find lost keys, that sort of thing, where as Icicle gets bigger, more important jobs), but the plot line ties them together perfectly.

The story starts out with Peach ending up on the mountain that everyone lives on (the one that's impossible to get of of once you're on it), around the time that the three villages are cele( )ating their tenth aunnual peace festival. After much urging by her father, Peach ends up going, wearing her great-great grandmother's necklace, her favorite.

While there, the necklace gets stolen by a girl dressed  in Penjagan styled clothes, but with uncharacteristically messy hair. Peach eventually ends up finding Peacock, and tells her what happened. Pea agrees to help her only because this was the first "real" job she had in years...

...And that ( )ings us to Baffin, who gets caught following them. When Pea finds out he's a thief, she manages to blackmail him into helping them. After a few days, the trio go to Penjaga and talk to some of the jewelers that Baffin claims to have sold stolen goods to in the past. Most of them really were shady characters, but one (Lorelei) ran a clean business. Baffin only told Peach and Pea because he was hoping to escape while Lorelei trys to defend her good name, which he does... from them. Unfortunately for him, Icicle had been looking for him as well, and was in the area, trying to find out who had been stealing valuable objects and making forgeries to sell in bulk.

While Baffin was trying to get away from Icicle, Pea and Peach find Peach's necklace, and start returning, only to find the other two. Once they find out what Icicle had been investigating, they return to Lorelei to have the necklace looked at, with Baffin and Icicle at their heels. Lorelei confirms that all of the materials were fake and more likely than not, not Peach's great-great grandmother's.

Peach manages to convince the other four to help her find her real necklace, and after a few more misadventures, end up going on an epic quest with the best tracker, huntress, and warrior they could find...

...And that's all you're getting! I don't want to spoil the ending!
