Robin was wandering the shops in the capital city, all alone while his friends were restocking. Their epic invasion to stop Walhart was coming soon, and they needed all the supplies they could afford. He walked from one seller to the next, already having purchased what he needed. A little window shopping wouldn't hurt, right?

"You, boy, come over here!" Commanded a voice from Robin's right. He looked over and saw a large, burly man behind a counter, a few old relics lying on the hard wood. He walked over to the man curiously. "You're facing great danger soon, yes?" Robin nodded, intrigued by how this random shopkeeper knew so much. "Please, take one of my trinkets here. For free. It will help you on your journey!"

"Oh, uh, thanks," Robin murmured, not exactly trusting the man. He could be a spy, but free stuff is free stuff. He looked through the old items on the counter, when the silver gleam of metal caught his eye. "What about this pocket-watch?" he asked. It was silver, with inlaid designs that looked liked gibberish to the tactician.

The shopkeeper smiled. "That is perfect! Just the thing in the case of an emergency!" The strange man pushed the watch into Robin's hands, packed up his stall and walked away. Robin put the watch in his pocket, slightly perturbed by the keeper's demeanor. Still, maybe it could really help them. Weirder things had happened, right?
