The sun was shining, birds were singing and a gentle breeze was blowing. It was a recipe for a perfect day, so why then did the people look so miserable? Not that Dr. Victorson didn't think that people always looked miserable, sick or not, but this was decidedly a very different type of misery from the common. A knew disease perhaps? Something new to study as he moved from place to place.
Faust was not much of a people person, he'd never found much use for them with the exceptions to those that showed more of an intellectual mind. Other than that there were patients, a nicer word for test subjects really. These he tended to treat professionally, picking out the most unique cases to study thoroughly. Needless to say not all his patients survived, but it was for the sake of science and greater understanding. One day the world would thank him for the knowledge he'd gained. In the meantime he was resigned to merely accept that he was a head of his time and needed to dodge the Government and Navy while he continued his research.
The clatter of the tip of his cane against the stone walkways as he made his way to the mayor's office was consistent. The white haired doctor cloaked in red intended to inquire about the state of things in the town. Perhaps he could learn more about the disease if there was one, or if it was something else entirely. That's when he saw the man himself addressing a few others. "It's regretful but we need outside help dealing with these bandits or we'll all go broke and hungry!" The older man stated in distraught. Faust arched a brow, So it was not a disease then. A pity, he didn't normally get involved with such things, but Depression and Misery were mental diseases in a way. It wouldn't hurt to expand his horizons a bit with some study into the matter.
That in mind, Faust took a look at those that the mayor was addressing, gauging potential allies that he might have in this task...
