I don't know if I can call it "losing" him, he's a grown-ass adult and can do whatever he wants. Just want to know he isn't getting into unnecessary trouble is all, but since you don't sound concerned, I'm going to take it that everything's fine. You all ever get tired of the colour green?
[ Hopefully the sunglasses help, Wolfwood....... ]
Natlan is the nation associated with the Pyro element. Fire, essentially. Those beans have a smoky and peppery flavor profile, if that's something you're interested in.
I'm in front of something they're calling an adventurer's guild.
[ Sorry I cannot be assed to look up Sumeru and pick a place but aside from the norms, we all know what is the one true constant of all of Genshin Impact. Katheryne. ]
So you're on Treasures Street. Walk to the top of the hill and go down the staircase you see to your left. Walk through the white gate ahead of you and through the double doors. That should place you in the middle of the Bazaar. I'm also assuming you have Mora to spend once you arrive.
[ He likes to be self-sufficient and this isn't his first time in this region so we'll say yes. He beat up Eremites or just found coins in Investigate spots, you know how it is. Odd requests and bounties are kind of fun when they're in a new world too. ]
Your city is one hell of a maze. Don't get too excited, I have a few but it isn't like I'm rolling around in double dollars let alone mora.
Not often. Quality coffee beans are one of the few items Kaveh will allow himself to spend more on.
[ When Alhaitham doesn't buy them for the house himself, anyway. Kaveh might like cheap wine, but this is a house of coffee snobs (though more Alhaitham than Kaveh).
Also, whether or not Wolfwood means it, he highlights the disparity between Alhaitham and the other three of them—the cheap stuff in your big house. There's nothing wrong with doing so, given that Alhaitham's wealth is an indisputable fact. It just makes Alhaitham curious enough to ask some questions he otherwise wouldn't. ]
Where exactly do you and Vash reside in No Man's Land?
Great, I'll keep in mind for any souvenirs next time.
[ Wow... Kaveh spending money for once. Wolfwood is pretty sure that guy will survive on strictly alcohol if he gets sad enough but coffee is probably a decent substitute.
Wolfwood is unbothered by such questions. He didn't make the comment to be mean but more just a neutral comment on how Alhaitham seems to have expensive tastes. ]
We don't. Neither of us have a house because we moved around a lot for reasons. Though I guess for Vash, the ship of people that took care of him is probably the closest thing.
[ Internally he's a little bit like wow read the room Alhaitham I didn't list them for a reason. He thinks Alhaitham is fine enough that he doesn't mind talking a little bit anyway though. ]
Wanderers. Vash is because he ended up getting a huge bounty on his head for having bad luck and poking his nose in wherever he went and everyone thought he was some kind of big shot guy. I lived in an orphanage and then I moved out.
[ When it comes to things Alhaitham wants to know about, the room hardly matters most of the time, even if he can read it. Sorry Wolfwood. ]
Kaveh also invites misfortune into his life by poking his nose in where it doesn't belong, but never to the extent that he earned a price on his head. How did someone like Vash manage that?
Lawless land, buddy. When someone wants someone dead, the easiest thing to do in a world where we're all fighting to survive is to put a bounty on their head. Keep evading that bounty and beating up your pursuers and they start racking up the price on your head to get better, or at least more reckless headhunters. Rinse and repeat.
I don't know. I don't really police what they talk about. It's not a secret or anything but we didn't exactly talk about bounties and how much we're worth over in the "game".
[ Because he thinks Kaveh should know about this unless there's a good reason why he shouldn't. He can't imagine what that would be, but it's worth talking to Vash about in general. Alhaitham has his reasons. ]
Kaveh did mention that there are children among you. Is that true?

no subject
As for the green, I think the answer is obvious.
And as for the coffee beans we were talking about earlier, Puspa Café sells some varieties. Occasionally a vendor appears in the bazaar to sell beans from Natlan, but only on rare occasions.
Would you be buying the coffee beans now?
no subject
[ The dismissal of the green question is so funny but Alhaitham is so right for it. Wolfwood is griefing. ]
Sure, why not. Carpe diem.
What's so special about Natlan beans?
no subject
Natlan is the nation associated with the Pyro element. Fire, essentially.

Sounds fun.
Which way is the bazaar?

Mora is relatively easy to come by, though as a result, it's just as easy to spend.
[ Thank you Zhongli for not simply minting more and ruining the economy. ]
The average bag of coffee beans will cost one hundred mora.
Specialty coffee beans can be anywhere between that and about six thousand mora.
no subject
No point in getting rich if you're never going to spend it, right?
[ Wolfwood lives like that. Can you blame him. He keeps just enough to make sure he can pay for the next few days and sends the rest home. ]
6000% markup? Yikes. You don't even carry the cheap stuff in your big house do you?

Makes it sound like we travel with kids with us.
I got some kids I'm looking out for. Orphanage.
They're with the people that looked after Vash right now.
