You have 16 Days Until Your Place of Business is Shut Down

> A new day for a new adventure! ...an adventure in cooking, that is. Go over your recipe book. How are we going to make chocolate, and what ingredients will we most likely need? We bought some, but we'll probably need a few more.

> First guess is [Sweet] + [Milk] + Cocoa Beans. That should be all, right?

Since you bought the milk and apples specifically for it yesterday, you decide to go ahead and use both with one of those cocoa beans and make one sample of the chocolate, as a bit of a test run. It's not nearly as hard as making the bomb was, and the challenge is just enough to be almost exciting without being too stressful. At the end of it, you have what seems to be some decent-quality chocolate. (-1 Milk, -1 Colseit Apple, -1 Cocoa Beans, +1 Milk Chocolate (2 Uses))

You feel reasonably confident you could make the other two for Hazel's request right now if you wanted to.

Miranda (???): Uninjured, Fine
Weapon: Knight's Sword
Armor: Knight's Armor
Accessory: None
Skills:

SpoilerShow

• Zero Motivation (passive): Eh. Miranda has less energy states than normal (Exhausted, Okay, Fine). It costs energy to perform regular move and attack actions in battle. Active skills require a large percentage of her maximum energy.
  
• Chill (passive): Whatever, it's fine. Miranda regains a small amount of energy anytime she isn't doing anything, regardless of if it's out of town or even in the middle of a battle.
  
• Spin Slash: Gotta respect the classics. Slashes everything in the 8 tiles surrounding Miranda for physical damage.
  
• Lazy Combo: Way too much effort. Performs six normal attacks in a row (which can have distinct targets), and then lacks the motivation to do anything at all for the next two turns (Chill is disabled during these turns).
  
• Slack Off (3/3): Miranda's favorite activity. Doesn't accomplish anything immediate, but restores a moderate amount of energy instead of spending it. Has a 2-turn cooldown and only works 3 times per battle.

Fee: 500 Cole

Dual Techs:

Sarah & Dave:
Ether Hatchet (Hatchet Throw + Ether Light): Do the thing! Targets any enemy on a straight line from Dave which he could hit with Hatchet Throw. Deals physical damage to the target and then magical damage to anything in the 3x3 square centered on the target.
