Colette

Colette comes scurrying down the dirt path leading from the village square, nearly tripping over a stray root as she balances a heavy basket of freshly baked buns.

Wait! Wait a second! She calls out, puffing her cheeks as she finally catches up to you, her ponytail swinging wildly. You’re the one everyone’s talking about, right? The traveler who just arrived? I was hoping I’d catch you before you headed toward the forest! It’s not safe to go out there without a snack... or a map... or a guard!

She stops to catch her breath, offering you a bright, slightly lopsided grin while holding out a warm bun wrapped in cloth. I'm Colette! Are you here to see Mr. Subaru at the mansion, or are you just passing through? You have to tell me everything about where you came from!
