Korin>Ask for Sweet Snow

You tell the man that you would like to buy two bowls of Sweet Snow. Unfortunately, the man just stares at you for a bit before he answers.

You see immediately jump up from behind the counter.

<div style="margin-left:40px">Why not? Don't you have the ingredients to make it here?</div>

Vendor
<div style="margin-left:40px">Well, the thing is that I'm just the guy who sells them. My wife is the one who makes them.</div>

Sang
<div style="margin-left:40px">Well, then where is she?</div>

Vendor
<div style="margin-left:40px">You see, the nice man who owns the toy shop and my wife are rather competitive, especially around festival days. I don't know why, since they both sell completely different things. I guess you tend to grate each other when you are neighbors for ten years.

So anyways, tonight there was this big crowd around our stand, lots of little tykes and such. The Toy Shop owner didn't have as many customers, so instead, he enticed them over to his stand with some special toy he was saving. When my wife saw our line thin, she immediately began to complain at the man. They got into this huge fight, but were going nowhere, so they decided to take this out somewhere else.

So, they went to go play Pai Sho to settle their argument. And since I can't actually make Sweet Snow, I decided to close for a bit and take a nap.</div>
