As the party speaks with Myrtle, Aria's eyes are drawn towards some arrowheads and some fletchings that Myrtle has on display.
At the mention of Mother specifically, Myrtle hauls off and spits on the floor, then uses her magic to clean it up. She is disgusted. She becomes less loud, more intense.
"I should have figured s--" she stops herself. "I let Anna keep a room in the back. There's space for two of you back there." she looks at Crush. "He stays up front with me."
And then, as if flipping a switch, she says "NOW WHATKIN I HELPYALL FINTODAY? SOME TRINKETS? SOME TRANKETS?" she laughs at her own joke. "SOME WANDS, WARDS, OR WORDS? HA! WE GOT SPELL BOOKS AN SPELLING BOOKS AN RITHMATIC BOOKS AND ALL KINDSA ODDSAN ENDS". She is paying close attention to Usul, Sen, and Aria, as they have shown interest in her wares and wears.
"You want Crush? You like Crush?" The orc will say confused as his grayish green skin begins to turn a shade of red. "I look Anna, not girlfriend" The orc will say with a smile before glancing around for anything interesting (that costs 10gold or less)
She almost chokes, then lets out a laugh that sounds like a dying griffon. "OH LORD NO BIG BOY, YAINT MY TYPE. I DON'T WANCHYER BIG SELF WRECKIN ANYTHING BACK IN THAT TEENY TINY SPACE."
Aria quickly turns her attention back to Myrtle.. You don't like Mother? Your "reaction" would lead me to believe that. Her eyes revert their attention back to the arrowheads and fletchings. What kind of arrowheads would she notice?

"And do you know anyone else who might be interested in Anna''s whereabouts?" adds Usul, looking up from the trinkets. "I'll have to come back when I can finally use these things..." he thinks to himself.
"what flying stones cost?" Crush will ask pointing to the rocks buzzing around the woman's head after letting out a sigh of relief that she wasnt interested in him.
"DON'T LIKE HER? HA" Another loud cackle. "WHATSTA LIKEABOTHAT BAGGABONES."
She sees Aria looking at the arrowheads and fletchers, and takes note to herself. Aria has spotted fletchers that can be affixed to an arrow that can be used as tracers, and an arrowhead that appears to be capable of scrying.
To Usul, she says, "SOMBIG FELLA WAS IN HERE A YESTERDAYSKIN BOUT HERTOO, I CHASED HIM OFF WITH SOME MAGIC, SEEMED LIKE A CREEP."
To Crush, she says, "THEYN'T FERSALE BUT I BETCHA ICAN GETCHA SOMTHIN NICE AN...." she thinks for a second, considering him "SKELETAL."
Veryes, listening to the exchanges waits for a pause and then asks Usul "Think us smaller folks should check out her room together? You look like you'd be good at investigating an area and maybe finding some clues?"
Aria seems intrigued with what she’s seen and perhaps if engaging in purchasing of some items... maybe Myrtle will loosen up. Aria points to the fletchers and arrow heads. How much for those? And what kind of work did she do here?

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
After hearing the reply about if the man had armor or not; Usul will reply to Veryes "Let's head over and have a look around. It's easy to have keen eyes when we're closer to the ground eh?"with a chuckle
stealth17 (just kinda looking to slip off to investigate, not really fully hide)
investigation22 (to look around for any signs of Anna, or anything that she may have left...)
Myrtle says that the man was well armored, and Veryes, Usul and Alexandra slip off to investigate the room.
Myrtle tells Aria that she can have the fletchers for 5 gold and the arrowhead is 150 gold, but she might be willing to part with it for less if you're able to find Anna.
She also points Crush towards a section of the shop that might otherwise be confused for some kind of morbid playground, but to someone like Crush, maybe there's more appeal. There are bones. A lot of bones. Bone jewelry, combs, musical instruments, daggers - name it, and she might have a version of it. She's even got a skeleton marionette - probably made from a small kobold, from the looks of it? that might be an interesting gift for..someone?
(Going to try to get Anna's room description up tonight, apologies if there's a delay)
With some very specific guidance from Myrtle regarding its exact location amidst the chaos of the store, Veryes, Usul, and Alexandra find Anna Kelver's room in the back, the door concealed behind some large rugs on display.
They find a small room - there is what can be nominally described as a bed with a overturned crate next to it being used as a nightstand. There is another piece of wood laying across the crate to keep things from falling through the slats, with a rainbow colored piece of fabric laid on top of that. There are several small rocks, a large candle, and a small book on the nightstand. The walls are decorated with what look like sketches of the city she drew: some ships in the docks, the exterior of the Yawning Portal, different angles of the mountain, the statue of The God Catcher, the statue of The Griffon, and several self-portraits. She is talented a talented artist for someone so young. There is also a small mirror on the wall. Finally, those of you in the room also see a black chest with brass colored bands over the top and a large padlock on it, partially hidden underneath a couple of dresses she had left behind - like she was trying to decide what to wear before she left, and these ones didn't make the cut that day.
Alexandra takes down one of the self portraits, examines it, and neatly tucks it away in her bag, "I dunnae think Anna's gon' missin'." She points at the dresses, "Looks lik' she's run away."
As three of the group head off to inspect Anna's room, Sen steps out of the corner where he was hiding, and speaks to Myrtle. Did Anna, um, does Anna have any friends? People she spends time with? Family maybe?
Crush would walk around the bone section, picking up a few trinkets and things that catch his eye. He would pick up a serrated bone dagger and a bone pipe and bring them up to the shop keeper. "How much?" Crush would ask placing the items on the counter.
Veryes looking around Anna's room will take out her book and write down the locations of the sketches she did. Dock, portal, mountain, etc.. She'll then check out the mirror. See if by chance there's anything on the back of it or behind it.

"Skeleton?" Crush asks with some interest.
Alexandra isn't interested in shopping right now so she'll slip into the back to rummage around Anna's room for clues.
"Anna, what sort o' business d' th' Lords have wit y'?
