I"ve never felt so out of place in my life, and that includes in the Defenders compound where I"m the only city born recruit. The dress Emmy picked out for me fits me like a second skin, though I have no idea how she managed to get that right. Perhaps she had Zelda measure me in my sleep. Now I think about it, there seems to be a higher chance that she stole my measurements from my records rather than doing that. Thankfully, she seems to have realised I probably can"t walk in heels and has given me some flat shoes that appear as if they"ll fall apart within a few hours. I hope I"m wrong about them. "Cobalt," Emmy calls as we approach the front of the auction house. I search the crowd for the figure I"m used to seeing, but don"t spot him until he turns around. The suit he"s wearing is so
