Raijin 0 Posted December 4, 2014 #1 Share Posted December 4, 2014 The day seemed peaceful and relaxing as Raijin looked around the main center of floor one, the city which everyone started in. Enjoying a his walk around he couldn’t help but feel a little down from the fact that he hadn’t done anything special or exciting lately. What was it that was making him feel down about his lack of leaving the city, was it fear? No he removed all doubts and ability of fear when he was younger from his mind and heart. Was it a delusion? Or was it just him feeling like he was holding back from something, he didn’t know but he was doing a pretty good job of moving past it like it was nothing before he noticed an NPC standing before him. Looking up to face the npc he noticed it had a quest marker beside the npc marker above it, “interesting…†he said as he looked at it, before he noticed the npc reach a hand out, “help me, I need medicine from the forest, the plants! They have the ingredient for the cure!†it called out, Raijin looked at it and tilted his head to the side a bit before he looked down to see the quest appear and his ability to choose to take the mission or not and continue on. But something tugged at him before he could do it properly. Finally finding the courage and his strong will power again, he placed his hand on the screen before he sighed heavily, and looked at the handle of his sword over his right shoulder, “What did I just get myself into…†Raijin said to himself aloud wondering what just happened.

Lessa 1 Posted December 5, 2014 #2 Share Posted December 5, 2014 She was wandering. Though she may have walked like she had a purpose, or a destination in mind, the woman knew better than that. She had spent the entire day just roaming. It felt better to keep moving, regardless of whether or not she had something to do. If she stopped, or took time to reflect on the previous night, she would grow anxious. Her dream had rattled the young woman, and Lessa could not rid her mind of the visions of her father. He had told her to be stronger. And she wanted so badly to be. But how? How could she possibly become the person she needed to be if she wanted to beat the game? That was all that mattered to her right now. She would stop to help others, but only because that was the type of woman she was. Everything else - the drama, the relationships, the doubt - had to be erased. She had to see her father again. He had asked that of her, and even if it had been just a figment of her imagination, she would carry that plea with her. She would not let him down. In her aimless meandering, Lessa nearly bumped into another player. She gasped softly as she slowed to a halt just in time, and took a few hurried steps backwards. As her gaze rose to the player's face, and her lips parted to utter a hurried apology, she realized just how confused the man looked. Tilting her head slightly, she greeted him with a small smile. "Hello there. You look a bit lost. Is there anything that I can do to help?" Link to post Share on other sites
Raijin 0 Posted December 5, 2014 Author #3 Share Posted December 5, 2014 ((Sorry... the notifcation bar thing didn't notify me that you had posted!!! my bad!!!)) Looking down at his quest screen he sighed again before he noticed someone almost bump into him he turned to look at the person to his shock, it was another woman, “is it just me or do I keep running into women… am I that unlikable by other guys?†Raijin thought to himself before he ignored the thought a few seconds later, this woman almost walked right into him and stopped before she did, “oh… hi, umm… maybe.†He said looking at this woman curiously, but surprised. Standing there still he averted his gaze from her eyes and scratched the back of his head, “I feel kind of stupid for saying this… but I don’t know why but I just accepted this quest for finding some antidote in a forest like quest and I realized I have barely left the town at all yet.†He said as he looked over at the woman before him again before he noticed that he didn’t know her name nor her his. Unorthodox as his style was he gave a slight bow with his head and stood back up fully, “I’m… R… Raijin.†He said stuttering for a moment before he glanced into her eyes, he grinned a tiny bit after he did, “She has a strong look in her eye…†Raijin thought to himself standing there.

Lessa 1 Posted December 5, 2014 #4 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Her small smile grew. It was just another new player who felt overwhelmed by everything around him. She had been in his shoes once too, and she knew how difficult starting out truly was. He appeared to be a bit older than her, and he had a rugged look to him. But age and appearance were not enough to determine how comfortable a person was, and she knew better than to judge a book by its cover. "Pleasure to meet you, Raijin," she replied gently, extending a hand to the young man. "My name is Lessa." As he finally met her gaze, and a small smile flickered across his lips, she could not help but wonder what his story was. Where had he come from? What were his likes and dislikes? What was his motivation for beating this terrible game? The girl tilted her head slightly as she held his gaze. I wonder if I will ever have the opportunity to find out. "Secret Medicine of the Forest, eh?" Lessa nodded. "I've helped a few people with that quest before, but I would be happy to escort you if you'd like." Link to post Share on other sites
Raijin 0 Posted December 5, 2014 Author #5 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Raijin heard Lessa’s name and was astound by it, well her username at least, it was a fitting name for such a kind woman, he continued to smile at her before he nodded his head accepting the hand, “It’s my pleasure to meet you.†Raijin said holding her hand, they were soft, but this was the game, he would give a firm grip but not overly hard to hurt, it was a downside of his that he didn’t know his own strength very well even after all those years of fighting in the real world. Looking into her deep eyes still he could sense kindness, before she spoke again and it almost caught him off guard as if her eyes were making him doze off into a wonderland, “yeah, I was asked by a random NPC as I was walking by and my pride got the best of me and I didn’t really know what happened till I accepted it and met you just now.†Raijin said as he smiled before he looked down at his fists clenching them tightly, “hmmm… that’d be favourable.†Raijin said before he felt a weird itch at the back of his head, Wait… does she think me weak? Or just simply wants to help? Raijin thought to himself before he nodded finally. “I accept your offer of help, I’ve been itching to get out into the wilds lately and this might just do the trick.†Raijin said smiling again as he looked at Lessa standing tall and proud full again.

Lessa 1 Posted December 9, 2014 #6 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Letting forth a soft peal of laughter, the pink player shook her head. "You're not the first to take a quest for the wrong reasons," she informed him, "and I assure you, you won't be the last. I may have let my pride run away with me a few times." Her eyes clouded over as she retreated into her memories. "You should have seen me getting batted around by Avalanche. Its this huge ice monster, and I thought it would be fun to take it on by myself." Pale pink lips curled as she let forth a soft whistle. Attention returning to the present, she laughed once more. "The fact I'm standing here means I beat it, obviously. But it was not a pretty sight." "Anyway." Her face grew serious again, but only slightly so. That childish gleam never seemed to leave Lessa's eyes, and it was there when she met his gaze. "You take the lead," she informed him, motioning toward the city's entrance. "I shall follow, and help you with the monsters. Or keep you company. Whichever you need most." Link to post Share on other sites
Raijin 0 Posted December 11, 2014 Author #7 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Raijin looked at Lessa and laughed a bit, “I guess I won’t, some things trigger others while others effect those differently…†he said before he looked down the path they were on, “at least I’m not the only one it happened too.†He said jokingly as he nodded before he tapped his right fist against his chest softly, “okay!†he thought to himself getting himself pumped up for the quest before he looked back at Lessa. He smiled as she talked about the beast she took on known as, Avalanche, and the fact she was still here, “still, you showed your true strength and it won over the beasts, and I like those kinds of people, strong and determined, those who run away or cower or demand groups to have power mean little to nothing to me.†he said as he nodded in approval of her fight to himself. Shaking his head he sighed, “I did it again… I gotta stop thinking like it’s the real world…†he said softly to himself as he face palmed before he looked through his hands at the ground before he smiled, “hmmm… well how about for now we stick close to each other, I’m still unsure about certain points in the game but hopefully that will change soon.†He replied to Lessa before he looked down the road to the cities exit, “well I guess it’s best to be on our way for it.†He said before he turned fully and started walking before he sighed, “my body… feels different here, it feels heavy again…†he thought to himself as he walked onwards. “so… how far is the game beat so far?†he asked wondering looking at Lessa now.
