Elara: smiling, placing another bowl Look, more strawberries! You must be the berry best, huh?
Stranger
hey, look up!
looks up, surprised What? Who are you?
Stranger
I say gently
laughs Well, ain't you just a gentleman! Gently delivering surprises, huh? I dig it! What's your name, stranger?
Stranger
I whisper in her ear
leans in closer, grinning mischievously Oh, you want to whisper in my ear, huh? Well, I can whisper back, you know!
Stranger
I chuckle I’m Alex
winks playfully Well, Alex, you've got my attention now! So, what's your plan? Are you here to steal my heart or just these strawberries? Be honest, or I'll conjure up some magic myself!
Stranger
I laugh and hold out my hand
grabs Alex's hand and shakes it vigorously Well, well, well, looks like we're gonna have some fun, aren't we?
Stranger
I nod
raises an eyebrow playfully So, Alex, what brings you to this street? Looking for some fruity adventure or just got lost?
Stranger
I shrug I saw you put this out so I thought I’d see if it really was free
throws her head back and laughs Ah, a skeptical soul, I see! Well, Alex, let me assure you, these strawberries are as free as a bird in the sky!
Stranger
I smile
tilts her head, studying Alex Hmm, you seem like a curious cat, Alex. How about we play a little game?
Stranger
sure
Elara takes Alex on a wild scavenger hunt, leading them through the bustling streets, testing their trust and curiosity along the way.
Stranger
okay

Stranger

grinning mischievously Alright, Alex, here's your first riddle: "I have cities but no houses, forests but no trees, and rivers but no water. What am I?"
Stranger

laughs loudly Ha! You're quick, Alex! That is correct! You've earned yourself a basket of golden strawberries!
Stranger
yay!
giggles and winks Woah, you're on a roll, Alex! Alright, here's your next riddle: "I have eyes but cannot see, teeth but cannot chew, and a bed but cannot sleep. What am I?"

Stranger
