Mars 0 Posted March 11, 2018 #1 Share Posted March 11, 2018 He grins from his shop having planned to craft today, but there was the matter of the desired items being crystals, and he couldn't yet afford to make a mistake with such a costly item such as those. He nods his head deciding he will respond to that call from those lesser pantheon. He accepts the quest notification and then hears a knock on his door. Without wasting a second he opens up the door to see a Satyr standing there and looking rather cheerful as it gazes around at everything near his shop. He mentally groans at that realizing that this will be a utter annoyance of a time trying to deal with this annoyance just for him to face off against the greek god that is on this floor. However, though he can do this. he can persevere against these annoying odds to overcome them with success. he is confident about this in every right as he should. he is Mars a man of war, and no dumb nature loving goat will stop him.

Mars 0 Posted March 11, 2018 Author #2 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Well Howdy there parnter! The name is Sally and i am here to take ya on up to meet the goddess Demeter! She took an interest in trying ot beat all y'all players who want ta get dat der itme that once was on about. She says to him as he finds himself immediately wrong. Realizing that he might lose his sanity while having to go through this against such a annoying creature that just wants to take him towards the mountain of Olympus. he just sighs and nods his head towards the Satyr as he gestures for the creature to start leading him towards the quest objective. Can we please get a move on miss Sally I would rather get there before the sun sets on this day. I do need to get some of my crafting completed for the day to try and draw business towards myself. he says in a calm tone of voice towards the girl as he puts his hands in his pockets.

Mars 0 Posted March 11, 2018 Author #3 Share Posted March 11, 2018 The Satyr just nods its head and starts leading him across the fields of the floor as he just shrug and walks along with her as he gazes around at the area as his familiar walks alongside him at his own pace as it tries to tempt all monsters by burning them with fire, but nothing seems to be working right away in terms of getting them to come towards him to fight on his way. Being rather bored with travel otherwise at this point to try and make the most of them. To get as much COL and such as it is possible from these travels between quest points. Though from the look of things it seems this Satyr has some protection type of ward around it to prevent monsters from attacking it. Most likely explained away by the game to prevent their messengers to be hurt with godly intervention of sorts. Though if it was meant to be specific for the gods he doesn't understand why it isn't some type of fruit or such working as the ward by feeding the beasts. Link to post Share on other sites
Mars 0 Posted March 11, 2018 Author #4 Share Posted March 11, 2018 He continues traveling through the vast span of wildlife and ground that is the seventeenth floor as the satyr keeps babbling about things like what is the best berry. Doing his best to just ignore the constant blathering of this lesser creature that is trying to spout something about this information being important. Just focusing on the fact that he needs to prepare himself mentally to face a goddess in crafting the perfect potion is what he imagines is going to be required for him since it is meant to be challenging a god of sorts to gain a item that was meant to have some rather high value within the past. He can only expect to face the most difficult time of his life within this competition. Since if he is facing a god of this craft he could only imagine it is going to be a uphill climb in that regard. Link to post Share on other sites
Mars 0 Posted March 11, 2018 Author #5 Share Posted March 11, 2018 He moves through the land until it suddenly gives away like a illusion as he looks around rather baffled by what just happened and finds himself standing upon clouds with a mountain that leads upwards towards the building that he guesses is the home of the olympians truly. he glances around able to see some other creatures and gods roaming about. Seeing Apollo playing some music, and other gods just doing their duty or such. He then looks towards the Satyr as it finally starts speaking something useful to him. Well Alright mister Mars. Demeter be out back towards her garden. Shoudn't be to bad for you trying to finds her. She says before going off to some location that he can't find himself caring about by any grand margin. he then looks around looking for any signs of nature that he can try to find that goddess,and wherever this garden was at.

Mars 0 Posted March 11, 2018 Author #6 Share Posted March 11, 2018 he makes his way through the land of Olympus without a singular guide as he looks around at all the creatures look so happy and cheery that he just rolls his eyes at. As he focuses upon his goal of getting what he needs from this questline which is only the bonus to his crafting that he desperately needs to make sure he can get more perfects which will put his shop upon the map in all reality. he just needs to make sure he can progress faster then benjamin and then surpass him in what he has to try and get people to come towards his shop. Just seeing the scarf wearing boy as his rival in the terms of the crafting area, and just like with Pinball he would make sure to surpass him as fast as it is humanly possible of him to do so with well timed Crafting respites, and the bonus to his crafting. he nods his head in contemplation remembering there is also a quest upon the twenty second floor that could be used to allow him to get better rolls if he can just farm that thread for all that it is worth to him.

Mars 0 Posted March 11, 2018 Author #7 Share Posted March 11, 2018 He continues traveling through the mythical land of the gods of the greek pantheon. Wondering what they even do with such a setting with what is necessary. Wondering if there will ever be a roman floor to match this greek one. However, even he can admit the Roman vs Greek culture in terms of their worship is practically similar with not that much differences in what makes them unique. That the key defining factor is more so the buildings, and government that had defined the two away from each other. He grins at the thought of having a Colosseum within this game that could be used for grand fights. TO be able to fight against everything that would try to fight him like a sort of mob grinding pit to gain levels faster, or to get some sort of prize at the very end if you managed to kill enough of the different enemy types. He smiles at the thought of such a creation. Link to post Share on other sites
Mars 0 Posted March 11, 2018 Author #8 Share Posted March 11, 2018 He looks around the area and grins once he spots the being he has been trying to find for awhile spotting a woman with what looks like a plant crown, and other sorts of nature all around her with herself being inside of a garden as he nods his head and starts to make his way over towards her until she speaks out as he starts getting within five feet of the actual garden. Do not step into here. i will meet you out there weary traveler. Then we can take part in this challenge that i wish to fight you against. To make sure that i am not getting rusty. Afterall if i am to be a goddess of something i got to make sure you silly little mortals don't get ahead of me. She says with a smile on her face as she turns to face him as he just smiles back while on the inside glaring at this woman that dares to insult his talents right in front of him.

Mars 0 Posted March 11, 2018 Author #9 Share Posted March 11, 2018 after a few more minutes of tending to her plants Demter comes forth towards him with a smile on her face as she nods her head at him. Well then i did call you here for a challenge so it would only make sense for me to begin this challenge now wouldn't it? She says to him with a bit of a playful tone to her voice as he just crosses his arms at his chest as he waits for her to speak. The goddess then rolling her eyes. A impatient one aren't you. Fine then the challenge would be to create a potion that can heal the most wounds. Think you can do that? She asks him as he just nods his head. Easily forging potions is what i do for a living remember. He says in a calm tone of voice as he then takes out the materials of the best quality from his inventory and waits for the actual devices that require him to craft to appear before him along with a area to forge what he needs.

Mars 0 Posted March 11, 2018 Author #10 Share Posted March 11, 2018 After a bit Demeter nods her head and then gestures for him to follow as he does so as she slowly leads him back towards the stairs towards the top of the mountain as he grins at this at being able to see within the building that the god's reside. Making his way up the stairs slowly one by one. Though with each step it seems like a slowly growing impossible climb upwards, but Demeter seems to not be having any problems at all with this. With that thought he continues to try to run up the stairs faster and faster with only very small amounts of progress happening. his thoughts growing darker at how this woman is making a fool of him as he then notices with such a thought that the goddess Demeter seemed to get further away. He then realizes the hidden challenge behind just climbing the stairs to try and cure one's hearts of impure thoughts it would seem like. That or it was of arrogance when trying to face a god. having remembered reading many stories where the gods punished those who were arrogant of thinking themselves equal to the gods.

Mars 0 Posted March 11, 2018 Author #11 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Slowly the stairs seem to correct themselves as they slowly allow himself to climb up them step by step as he makes his way to the top, but when he does so he is out of breathe at that as he glares at the goddess who has a slightly smug look when she looks towards him. he shakes his head as he slowly takes deep calming breathes to try and get his breathing but under control to allow him to do this competition competently, and not allow failure against this goddess that thinks she can try to change in some fashion. To try and make him give respect to just a bunch of numbers and data. Something that he will never do as long as he is allowed to control what he is allowed to do. Not going to give respect to such a person, or anything unless they manage to impress him. Which this goddess hasn't done at all. Link to post Share on other sites
Mars 0 Posted March 11, 2018 Author #12 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Once at the top he slowly makes his way following Demeter throughout the halls as she leads him to something that he can akin to a laboratory of some type as he gazes around the area with a smile on his face at what he can see around him. He quickly makes his way towards one of the set ups that is necessary for him to craft up a potion and doesn't waste a second as he starts getting into his task right away ignoring the indignant shout from Demeter about how he was cheating by getting a headstart as he just chuckles darkly. It is called taking advantages when they present themselves Demeter. It is something us human's are good at. Now then prepare to lose against a war god during his crafting. he says cockily ignoring the sly smirk from demeter as she works on doing something or the other. Only hearing the sounds of whispered talking being what greets him. Link to post Share on other sites
Mars 0 Posted March 11, 2018 Author #13 Share Posted March 11, 2018 he looks towards the crafting station as he starts crushing up the materials into a small paste like material as he crafts along into the usual style that he does so taking it step by step with each moment making sure that he doesn't mess up somewhere along the way. Able to hear the sounds of heavy foot falls slowly approaching towards the area as he can feel a slowly growing feeling of dread for whatever reason. he looks towards Demeter who has this sort of confident look to herself. He just focuses back and checks the measurements and nods his head able to see that he has enough of the crushed materials to work on making the healing potion that he needs to work on. He then grabs one of the flasks and fills it up with some water, and starts up the fire below to start getting to crafting the liquid part of the potion. Link to post Share on other sites
Mars 0 Posted March 11, 2018 Author #14 Share Posted March 11, 2018 he then hears the door to the room slam open as he quickly sets the water filled flask above the fire and turns to see a man covered in head to toe in armor as the man walks forward. he grins able to identify it as Ares as he looks at the man as he takes out a sword and goes to strike his flask as he quickly jumps over the table and kicks the sword out of the way. No attacking my flask no need to get involved Ares. Why don't you go back to admiring Aphrodite or starting the next war upon this floor. You're not wanted here. He says calmly as the war god glares at him. You will be involved in a major fight one that will decide the lives of everyone, and you're now doomed to die. The man says with a gravely echoing voice with a thumbs down before leaving. He looks towards Demeter who is already on the next stage after him as he curses silently at having to deal with a distraction most likely what the talking about earlier was.

Mars 0 Posted March 11, 2018 Author #15 Share Posted March 11, 2018 With that he is back to crafting what is necessary for himself forming the materials and pouring them into the liquid as they slowly get boiled, and integrated into the water molecules to start forming a healing agent that would cure wounds. he nods his head at seeing the progress as it slowly takes place as he then starts working in by slowly adding in more and more to even out the process to get to work on making sure the healing effects were at the maximum efficiency is to be had with this concoction since it is meant to please a god of all people. With that once the right added amounts have been poured in he glances over towards the goddess now just waiting for everything to boil correctly as she is already done. With a soft sigh he is forced to just wait by tapping his foot as time slowly passes by. Link to post Share on other sites
Mars 0 Posted March 11, 2018 Author #16 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Eventually the concoction is made as he stops the fire, and then looks at what he has made from this as he carefully picks it up with a gloved hand and carries it over to Demeter and presents the item to her with a calm look upon his face. there the item has been made. My i please get my item now i don't wish to be here any longer then you're forcing me to be. he says with clear disdain for the woman just wishing to get what is necessary. However, the goddess just shakes her head and has him follow as he grumbles in annoyance at once more being loud out of the land of olympus and back down towards the gardens as she stands before a few dying plants and then pours it out rejuvenating the life of a singular plant. She then pours his out as it rejuvenates the life of two of the plants within the area. He grins at the success at what he had crafted as he looks towards the goddess. Well then my item please.

Mars 0 Posted March 11, 2018 Author #17 Share Posted March 11, 2018 With that the goddess just looks upon him and then conjures up something as the ground slowly shakes from the item being brought forth as eventually a small cauldron is formed with depictions of nature all around it, and plants wrapped around the item as the goddess hands it to him and then pushes him backwards as he then finds himself in front of his shop. He glances around in confusion of what just happened, and how this even occurred when he had to walk a fair bit to even get towards the Olympian mountain. TO just be pushed back to get to his shop being perplexing for himself. He just shrugs after that not finding it in him to care to much since it is a quest as he enters his shop and goes back to his work space and places the cauldron nearby where he works, so he can continue to craft with the buff nearby to help him out with doing so.

Mars 0 Posted March 11, 2018 Author #18 Share Posted March 11, 2018 With that over with he grins as he does his crafting for the day, and then walks out of his shop and sits upon a bench that he had made outside of the shop. having just wanted one to be able to gaze around at the wildlife upon this floor. Having found it curious and unique in its own way of being since it is a floor based upon the very challenges against the gods themselves for this quest, and probably against the beasts of legends like that of the nemeon lion like he had heard is on this floor also. Something he was wary of for certain since it could be the end of him within just singular instances if he wasn't careful on how he proceeded against such a foe. The tales of its impenetrable skin being enough to tell him it could be a hard earned fight against the creature and its mate that walks along with it. Link to post Share on other sites
Mars 0 Posted March 11, 2018 Author #19 Share Posted March 11, 2018 He looks towards the sky and sees that it is starting to set slowly upon the day, and with a nod he gets up from his seat and then spots his familiar getting thrown at his feet and then looks for the source, and finds absolutely nothing that could've done so. he can only assume it was the olympians that had done that after they found his familiar doing something they hadn't liked in one way or the other. he chuckles at the thought though of his familiar causing such chaos among all the NPC divine like beings. Having caused discord and hopefully some ruin, but were unable to kill his familiar since they weren't programmed to do any of that. he relaxes ever so slightly with such thoughts and keeps his hands within his pockets as he turns to the door of his shop and begins to make his way over to it to enter the building.

Mars 0 Posted March 11, 2018 Author #20 Share Posted March 11, 2018 he opens up the door to his shop and then begins to walk towards the bedroom within his shop as he walks up the stairs at a calm and relaxed pace as he then walks towards the bedroom. Opening up the door to it and letting his familiar in who finds his small bed made of fur and lays within it as he makes his way towards his bed and gets within it and goes to sleep right quick to make sure he is energized for the next day. To make sure that he will have the stamina needed to beat any quest of combat that will be required of him, or to find more materials that he can use in his craft, or just a simple crafting nonstop once more to make sure he had the most amount of levels possible within a short period of time that can be provided to him. With those thoughts put to rest he quickly falls asleep, and enters the lands of dreams. Summary:2 SP, 400 COL, +1 CD to crafting permanent. Link to post Share on other sites
