Afternoon Glow

Pel entered the mission hall and went directly to the board but couldn't find anything about harvesting the kind of flowers he was holding so he went to the counter.

"Hello, how may I help you?" the boy behind the counter smiled and stared at Pel with bright eyes.

Pel ignored his behavior and showed him the flower. "I'm here to turn in a task"

The boy stared at the flower and responded. "The afternoon glow, looks like you took up the task as well, but the task was put down an hour ago"

Pel frowned, thinking if it was just a coincidence but the time was before Carrie was taken to the health center. "Do you have any idea why the task was put down?"

"No" the boy shook his head.

Pel pursed his lips and glanced at the computer. "Then do you know who issued the task?"

"This information is kept confidential, I hope you understand" the boy replied in a tight spot.
