My first impression of Isa was an aloof, competent guild elite, but that didn't last long.
I remember it was Isa's first time visiting the Colossus. The Navigator wasn't here, so I had to handle host duties alone. I showed Isa around the Soroz. The whole tour was uneventful, even plain and somewhat cursory. Fortunately, Isa was a great conversationalist, so we got a pretty good vibe going between us. It wasn't until the tour was almost over that I noticed the bag on her shoulder. I admonished myself for the negligence as I reached with the intention of carrying it for her, but she shrieked and immediately got into a fighting stance... What was that all about? Even now, it still weighs heavily on my mind.

Rebecca is the best in the world, no arguments. Even though she is grown now, I can still recall how cute Rebecca was as a child. Back then, she was soft and softer-spoken. She would finish the dishes I didn't like when we ate. Of course, she is still adorable today. She's my little sister, after all. But why do I feel Rebecca's been a little evasive around me lately?
Don't jump to any conclusions. I didn't do anything bad!
That is, I bought her a lot of wonderful gifts and I would follow closely behind to keep her from surprise attacks, which has happened many times. I have to protect my little sister since it's my obligation as the big sister.

I don't particularly feel bad about my lack of height, but I'll make sure whoever calls me "Shorty" or anything similar suffers for it! Back at the slave pen... Wait, I don't think I ever talked to you about it before, right?
It's okay. I was just unlucky enough to get kidnapped by slavers. See, the slave market was where the scars on my arms came from. Sheol then saved me and brought me to Cloudrover Guild. To show my gratitude, I started working for her.
Anyway, a stupid guy called me that in the slave pen and I knocked him straight to Sunday! Then I got the stuffing beat out of me too, but that's not important! The point is I don't really care about my height, understand?

I did mention I work for Sheol out of gratitude, right? Actually, what I'm doing involves no technical expertise. Simply put, it's just chasing debts and collecting dues.
You probably think there isn't much difference between the two. And you'd be dead wrong. Debt reminder is threatening people to pay up. It's verbal-oriented. Whereas debt collection is forcing them to pay and physically-oriented. Not only that, you have to go different routes with different people. For example, someone who deliberately skips payments regularly gets to taste the fist of Cloudrover Guild. But for the poor saps with real problems and honestly trying to pay, I'm more lenient, so I get to be the judge... Wait a minute, this job is harder than I thought!

People like me are essential for Umbraton. There's a reason why survival of the fittest is the law of nature. You can buy anything if you have the money—or at least that's what I always thought. However, I know from facts that I was wrong.
Hey, don't you look surprised! Do you think I'm someone who never admits to being wrong?! Money isn't everything, but you can't do anything if you don't have money! I'm sure even you can understand that simple logic. After all that, all I actually want to know is if there's anything you want. You saved the person most dear to me, so I must thank you. Naturally, that includes a gift, because that's how I roll... Now, don't turn it down and just accept the offer!
