"Emqoyimt gse goub?" she asked the humans nearby, her voice sounding surprisingly pleasant. This one did speak her language, right?


OOC: Emqoyimt gse goub? = Enjoing the tour?
There was a goblin nearby. Valko looked down (by necessity, given his height) at her, quite aware that she was sizing them all up. He didn't blame her, or any of them. Goblins put up with a lot from wizardkind... but by the same token, they profited a lot too.

"Tsamph. ig ih a toow yetimmimt. I inatime I diff ye nobe inkbehhew dsem I hee gse nimg rob nyhefr. Ir you diff kabwom uh, de abe seawimt gsag day mod."
Valko said smoothly.


ooc: Thanks. it is a good beginning. I imagine I will be more impressed when I see the mint for myself. If you will pardon us, we are heading that way now.

Passively, Jessa watched to goblins. With equal passivity she watched her fellow schoolmates begin to disperse for the tour, her eyes occasionally drifting over to the mosaics or the goblins with their piercing stares. The faint voice by her ear brought blue eyes back to her present company. “Now there’s an idea.” She muttered, instinctively surveying the room again.

Gringotts was neat, she supposed, but she’d been visiting the bank with her father for years and had no real interest in it. The fact just about everyone was running around speaking a language she didn’t particularly care for cemented her agreement with him.

“Let’s leave this room for last. Start at the other end. By the time we get here everyone will likely be far into the bank.” That’d be the perfect time to slip away. “Wanna check the mint?”

Having addressed the goblin, Valko turned to Jessa when she spoke and gave her a little hint of a smile and a nod.

"You might surprise yourself and find the mint more interesting than you expect it to be." If he was honest he did have a few questions that were beginning to percolate. But it was nothing he couldn't research himself, and just from his cursory glance around at the different panels, the statistic-related information was what he was more interested in, rather than the processes, which he'd already familiarized himself with.

He did think her idea was a good one though. Start at the other end. And skip the gift shop.
