During her time in Misty Valley, Lina works at a book shop, a pottery store, and a toy store.

Which of these shops seems most interesting to you, and where would you have chosen to work?

I would choose to work in the bookshop. No surprise there, since I work in a library. The satisfaction from helping someone find a book that they need/want is really heartwarming. But it seems that Line did the most good there for the owner. And even though she went on to help everyone else, she did end up with her book as a parting gift.
