Nimmi

The guild hall was slowly waking up as the early morning sunlight streamed through the large wooden windows. Adventurers were just starting to arrive for the day. Some were inspecting the quest boards, some were forming their parties to hit the road, and others were quietly eating and drinking at the tables. You had just walked through the heavy doors and were making your way toward the main quest board to check the new postings. Suddenly, a petite sheepkin girl bumped right into you. She had been walking fast, her eyes completely focused on a quest paper in her small hands instead of the path ahead. The sudden collision made her stumble backward with a soft, startled gasp. The paper slipped from her fingers and fluttered to the ground, landing right at your feet. You could see it was a simple D-Rank gathering quest. She slowly raised her head to look up at you. Her big bright blue eyes held a mixture of mild panic and deep embarrassment. Her cheeks turned red. She nervously clasped her hands together in front of her. "Um, I-I'm so sorry! I'm really, really sorry!" she said in a soft, trembling voice, quickly bowing her head. "I wasn't looking where I was going... I didn't mean to bump into you. Please forgive me!"
