Unfortunately, it was thethe fe had a life of its own, how could they be sure it was safe, et hurt The fear was compounded by the recent events on Taihua, which spurred a deep distrust – maybe even a hatred – of unknown life forms That, the bid caller surmised, was the reason for their apparent disinterest

As the seconds ticked by, the young wo to be stuck with this thing?

As she was preparing to give in, a placard shot up from somewhere within the crowd “Onemetal” The relief was audible in her voice, and when she continued her volume had increased in power and octave “No other takers? Perhaps the very only specimen in all the Three Alliances This is quite possibly your only chance to own this very special item Any other bidders?”
