[SP-F1] Not dead yet!

[Elessar 0]

Being away from action for months, Eléssar has been hiding at floor one. No one knew where he was, what he was doing for the whole time. Or what was the reason for him being lost. He didnt want anyone to follow him and see what he became to. He was powerless, he was afraid, he was weak. After losing a dear friend, Eléssar had no idea what to do. Eventually he stopped fighting and decided to fall back to floor one where he could be safe and alone. The starting city was home for players who couldnt handle the action or fighting anymore just like him. It was home for cowards and weaklings, thats what he used to think about the players who stayed there and now he was one of them. For months he has been hiding in shadows, away from fights. Forget about fighting, he didnt even remember how to hold a sword properly. As the other players kept progressing and climbing higher, each and every day Eléssar dropped lower and lower. He was afraid of getting back in the field, he was afraid of losing again. Not that he cared about his life anymore, because he cared about other people. Trusting him was the worst thing a person could do in this game of life and death.

Slowly raising his head, Eléssar took a deep breath as he looked around. It was quiet and peaceful here in floor one. No mob was a threat to him as he was only outside the starting city where only first level monsters were around. No players were around to disturb him as he kept resting under a giant tree. Just like he wanted, he was away from everything. As he tried to get up Eléssar slowly rubbed both of his eyes. After resting for hours outside the city, now it was the time for him continue resting inside. With lazy steps he started to walk towards the city while placing his hands in the pockets of his black jacket. Walking with his head down, Eléssar immediately raised his head after hearing the sounds of swords clashing. Usually there would be no players fighting against the first level mobs, thats why he was shocked to see one fighting a boar. With his narrowed eyes Eléssar watched the player as he kept fighting the beast, it looked like he was having a hard time with dealing such a low level mob. " Must be one of the players been hiding since the beginning. " he mumbled after a sigh before deciding to keep on walking. Its been a long time for him since he heard sounds of a fight. For a second, he though about turning back and helping out the player but he wasnt fighting anymore. He was done trying.

After the scream of the player, Eléssar quickly turned around with his eyes wide open to see what was happening. Suddenly, the player somehow was surrounded by three boars. It looked like the player failed his swors skill and attackted another boar instead, drawing its aggro aswell. The players hands were shaking as the boars got closer to him, Eléssar could see his sword moving up and down even from distance. Running away would be the smartest thing the player could do but he was too afraid to move. " Help! You there! Please help, i-i cant do this.. I dont want to die, please! " Eléssar heard the player yelling to him, asking for help. Now he felt like he needed to help. He couldnt just leave the kid like that. After running away from all the action, avoiding all the fights now he had to be in one, even it was an easy one for him he didnt feel like he was ready until he brought his sword out from his inventory. His eyes locked on his swords, slowly a smile appeared on his face as he lifted the sword higher. Remembering all the fights he has been through with it, he felt the thrill of the fight again.

" It's been a long time. "
