[Silco was dressed as he normally was, and he seemed unperturbed by the fact that the area around him was occasionally glitching from various types of fabric to open space to a plain wall. He remained perfectly normal and unaffected, which honestly was the important part, wasn't it?

This was not a shop that he was normally seen in, but anyone who had taken the time to visit the tailor would recognize the place. Some of the items on the work bench were glitching now and again.]

It seems that this world is falling to pieces, and our dearest of functional natives have taken the brunt of adverse situation in Aldrip. For those that are looking to fill the days or evenings with paid work, I find myself with an increase in availability.

I have acquired a small smattering of businesses over the course of my time here, and I will list them below. My offer is simple: a shift, a day, or more continual work is available. I pay cash in hand for time worked and long-term employment gains certain benefits. Inquire if interested.

[He flipped off the video and switched to text to list his businesses and provided their locations for those looking for something with limited transportation required.]

Sandwich Hut
Seafood Shack
The Last Drop Bar
The Flower Shop & Greenhouses
The Tailor

You don't believe a move like that will turn people from your cause if you don't show them first where you stand?

I see. I suppose whatever is necessary to keep the boy close at hand.

Such behaviour will lose you those loyal as they are following someone who wasn't showing them their truth. Be careful.
