Himiko was right. This would not be the only stockpile of gemstones within Hoenn worth snagging. Howard immediately thought of his mother's jewelry store, which held onto several of the region's most expensive jewels. He'd need to ensure that her store was safe.
"There's several gem stockpiles in the region. Ever Grande's cache, Slateport's docks and museums, Lilycove." Howard raised an eyebrow at Himiko and smiled. "I suppose Lilycove will be crossed off the list for now, thanks to you."
Man, Kantoian cuisine sounded good. Howard would need to get some when he was back in Sootopolis. Oh, but there was that really good corner shop in Rustboro. The dreamy expression was replaced with a serious one. There was still work to be done.
"Have you been to Sky Pillar?" Howard asked casually, referring to the Draconid's sacred monument. It was a site teeming with rare items. Ancient murals, expensive statues, elaborately carved artifacts. Jewels, stones, valued texts. It was an archaeologist's delight.
And Howard wanted it.
"Admittedly, it's not as illustrious as stealing jewels." Howard shrugged. "Yet I'll pay you handsomely to strip Sky Pillar of valuables. I'd like you to accompany me, as well. You'll smuggle, you'll assist, and you'll protect me from dangers."
The Admin, one of Rocket's most powerful members, wanted the protection of a common smuggler? It was abnormal, unheard of. No Rocket Admin, Beast, Head Scientist, or Underboss would rely on grunts for protection.
"Interested?"
