"That sounds wise, thank you," Arialla told Quanil. Did they seem a little down? She couldn't tell, and she wasn't about to inquire further in front of the cobbler. Maybe later.
She turned to the cobbler with a smile. "Yes, they pinch a bit, but I'm glad you have an eye for the craftsmanship."
Arialla was glad to hear that the cobbler was willing to trade two pairs for her single pair of sandals -- she'd been a bit worried that no one would want them at all, considering how impractical they were. Perhaps someone could use them as formal wear ... The thought that it wouldn't be her doing so gave Arialla a bit of a pang, but not too much. They did pinch, after all.
"This pair is very nice," Arialla said, indicating the golden flats. The color reminded her of home, of course -- of all the gold decorations in the temple of Apollo. "And I like these boots."
She pointed to the white boots with their gray laces.
