At four in the morning, Karon had already arrived in front of the Church Affairs Building. He first went to the floor Fannie had taken him before to collect his equipment bag, because he remembered that there was a specialized sales shop on that floor.
Fortunately, while the service there wasn’t particularly good, it was staffed and open around the clock. That was only natural, since the value of the church’s issued credits ultimately came from the resources that could be purchased and exchanged for with those credits.
