The dusty city was rife with the smell of blood, sweat and waste. How It was still standing at all, that was the bigger question. Clockwork scrap metal and the remains of magical machines littered the streets, blocking traffic and making it harder to navigate what had once been a very busy city. Now the business stemmed from the survivors trying to tend to the wounded in the aftermath and rebuild. There wasn't enough habitable space after the demons had descended on this place so those who couldn't find refuge in another city had made due on the streets.
Those who had been least harmed however, were taking advantage of the situation.
"I promise you, this potion will heal up those burns in a jiffy!"
"Get your purifying incense here. Keep the evil spirits out."
"Bread's 10 gold. No I can't sell it any cheaper now do you want the bread or not?"
"Mam, this amulet will ward your husband from necromancy."
"Look the cart to Stonehold left at dawn. If you missed it that's your fault I ain't refunding ya."
"I'm offering you twice the value of that ornamental dagger, but If you really don't wanna sell, I'll strike a deal with somebody else, someone who'll actually need the funds?" The petite girl making that offer to a one of the merchants raised a testing eyebrow. "No? Later then!" The yokai walked away from the vender, who was actually trying to make some money selling poorly made desalination charms to turn the murky sea water around the steampunk city into something drinkable. Izune had naturally picked the thing not for sale, and seeing value in it, had tried to bargain for it in exchange for something the shady man could actually sell.
His loss.
The bakeneko set a path on the sea side cobblestone road opting to try a different approach and find out if a more needy individual had something she might want.

So many merchants selling useless things but none could sell what Patienta sells, well not sell, Patienta makes contracts, basically a trade system between spirits, he could lend powers, objects or parts of personality for a price. At the most of the time, Patienta only accepts souls but he got bored of souls.
Patienta was searching someone to make a contract with. No luck. None was interesting enough for him, he wanted to find someone interesting. It was also hard to find someone interesting in that ocean of people, there was a lot of people in that place. That day wasn’t a lucky day for Patienta.
Patienta notices a bakeneko trying to buy an ornamental dagger that wasn’t for sale from a merchant. Patienta thinks that it didn’t go well since she didn’t end up buying. It was a good opportunity to Patienta, he approached the yokai.
“Eh... Ma’am, do you want something?” He said with a low voice, he didn’t talk with people often, he didn’t know how to do it.

Izune glanced the way of the one who had addressed her, her sharp feline eyes noting a being of human shape, but an aura which was definitely more complex than a mere mortal's. Did she want something, he asked? The teenage-looking yokai grinned, speaking in a tone that seemed older than her apparent age. "I'm after the world hun." she answered in a teasing way. As a cat she didn't need the world, since there were very few places she could not go if she set her mind to getting there. Still, it was a good enough answer for her to give a stranger, at least until she had a better idea of the stranger's motives.
"Did you need something?" she asked back. Almost everyone in this city needed something or other after the hit the land had taken due to demonic attacks. Izune didn't expect there to be any requests that would surprise her. She'd seen some 'ridiculous' 'human' 'needs'.
