Quest LFG: Link Participants: @Eldhi , @Sharara Gatsu <------------> Port Agripalia, Dunnstads, Falderen Region The bustling port city, one of Falderen's center of commerce and trade, was ruled by two prominent merchant families, the Dawnfelds and the Evenways. Of course, with business competitors came about rivalry and family politics. The two groups had been at each other's throats longer than they could remember and nothing suggested it would end anytime soon. At least, things haven't escalated to murders... yet. However, with the recent incident involving Oberon, youngest son of the Dawnfelds and Lorencia, eldest daughter of the Evenways, all the bubbling pressure might just erupt at a moment's notice. Oberon, in all of his youthful wisdom and brilliance, decided to abandon the boons and responsibilities of his family in favor of eloping with his one and true love. The sentiment was shared by said love as Lorencia agreed to run away with him, far from Agripalia, away from all the hustle and bustle of the port city to live quietly in a secluded countryside. Right now, the pair was staying on the second floor of an ordinary inn on the outskirts of the city, staying for the night before they would depart tomorrow. However, to say the runaway couple wouldn't be running into any issues was a big fat lie. --- "Yes....?" Lorencia opened the door to their modest room, her deep green eyes looking over the figure of a white-haired petite figure with a tanned complexion just standing outside. The two nobles went on alert as they saw the longsword strapped to the girl's back. "What is your business here?" Lorencia demanded, staying close to her lover. "Ah..." Said figure's red eyes were examining the parchment held in her hand, bearing a sketch awfully similar to the green-eyed young woman, "Oh! You must be Lorencia Evenway, right? Your father's looking for you!" The girl grinned, "I'm Eldhi by the way, a knight!" "My father... no, whatever he says, I won't return! Leave." The noblewoman scorned. "A-... ah..." Eldhi rubbed the back of her head, "Oh right, Lord Evenway warned me about this, ahem, okay, I know what to say, yep! It'd be just fine~" "Okay, so..." Her attention glanced between Lorencia and Oberon, back and forth before settling on the woman, "Don't worry, I mean no harm. Actually, your father accepts you... uh, can I come in first?" It felt awkward standing outside the door like this. A moment later, Eldhi found herself standing before the couple in their room, the door firmly locked behind her, "Okay, so... Lord Evenway sent me to take both you and Sir Oberon home." The swordswoman nodded, "Yep, that's right! He accepts your love, Milady Lorencia, and he is willing to take Sir Oberon as his son-in-law." "R... really?" Lorencia blinked in mixed disbelief and relief, "Is this a trick?" "Nope! See for yourself" Eldhi shook her head as she fished a letter from her pouch, handing it over to the couple. It was marked by the Evenway's official seal and in it was the handwriting of Lord Evenway himself, proving what Eldhi said was true and he'd welcome them with open arms. "I see..." Lorencia was in deep thoughts then turned to gaze into her lover's eyes, "What do you think, love?"
Hidden: Music Calls from porters and market stalls rung in her ears causing them to twitch ever so slightly as she made her way through the bustling streets of the port city of Agrapalia. It was hot despite the fact that there was a breeze blowing in off the sea making her already messy hair into more of a jumble of strands and general neglect of her personal appearance. Not that it seemed to bother her much, her hands firmly crossed behind her head as she walked chewing on the gristle of a fried fish that she had bought from a merchant... She decided to ignore the fact that it was completely cliche for a felis to be chewing on any sort of fish. People needed to eat, why was it okay for everyone else to eat fish but suddenly it became a big deal just because she happened to look like a cat?! Ugh, whatever. She hadn't even wanted to be in this port city, as happening as it was. Sharara had sort of wandered here by accident in her path of grinding on monsters and the like, really she hadn't even known where she was when she first showed up. She decided to peruse some supplies while she was here, filling up her hunger and thirst meter before going out. This is of course when she had been approached by none other that Sir Dawnfield himself. Apparently this was a some sort of big deal, even though she didn't really know him from anyone else in this city. Sure he might have dressed fancier than most of the people, but that didn't mean he was anything special. What he was though was a meal ticket! Okay, it was probably worth backing up a bit to explain. According to some of the NPC chatter around the city, this place was controlled by two trading families, the Dawnfields, and the Evenways. In standard Fantasy Venice trading family style they went full on Hatfield vs the McCoys with less shooting at each other from the porches of their considerably large houses, to trade disputes and vying for each others territories and ships and all that. Pretty much anything short of open bloodshed was something both families had gotten themselves involved in in some manner or other. That's where Oberon and Lorencia came into the mix... Blending in even more allegory, they went all Romeo and Juliet and decided to foster some sort of relationship with each other. This made Sir Dawnfield very upset; upset enough to start looking for the most muscular and intimidating figure that he could find in his fair city. As luck would have it, that intimidating figure was Sharara. He was offering a lot of money for Sharara to beat some sense into his son... He sort of mentioned he didn't really care if his son lived or died, but come on; what kind of father would be callous enough to want to assassinate his own son? Honestly it was probably a slip of the tongue on his part, so Sharara decided to take the job in order to make sure some other beefy adventuring type didn't do something that they would ultimately regret, or that Dawnfield would regret. She decided that she would just kind of beat him like a red headed step child until he came to his senses. Honestly love didn't really hold much sway for Sharara, she didn't really believe in it the same way most others seemed too. This was probably due to her fabricated backstory in which she was a tomboy in her village, and thus not really on the market romantically... No need for sob stories though. Sharara stood out in front of the inn that she had gathered as the place where the two lovebirds were staying. She considered her options for a moment while chewing on the fried fish in her mouth, it didn't take her long to come to a decision. She stretched and rolled her shoulders once before swallowing the fish in her mouth, psyching herself up for what was about to come. No one tried to stop her as she trudged through the inn, there weren't many rooms available and really only one had been purchased do it was easy to find the room she was supposed to be at. Through the door Sharara heard muffled conversation. It sounded like there might be two voices, a male and a females. Without much ado the felis gripped the haft of her massive blade that hung on her back before shifting all of her weight forward to kick the door at the base of the latch. With all of the strength that she put into her character she had no trouble knocking the wooden door off its frame, the metal hinges groaning and shattering from the sheer force of her kick causing the entire door to slam down on the floor with a thunderous symphony as the red headed brute stepped forward in all of her short glory. Without scanning the room at all Sharara pointed at the only male she could see. "LISTEN UP OBERON! Your father loves you and that's why he sent me to beat the ever living shit out of you!"
Eldhi's efforts weren't for naught as the pair of runaway lovers seemed to be convinced by her reasoning. It wasn't hard to figure out really, the only thing fueling the lovebirds' stubborn ambition to leave everything behind them was their assumption that their parents would never accept their mutual affection. Oberon seemed to be very convinced about his father, fortunately however, her love's was sensible. "Sera Eldhi, was it?" Oberon turned to the white-haired swordswoman, his hands holding his future wife, "If Lord Evenway will have me, then I am honored to be his son-in-law." "Yep! Knight of Justice!" Eldhi huffed proudly, sticking out her armored chest, one hand patting there, "Wonderful! I shall escort you two back to the Evenway Manor." Now how easy was that? ... Of course, right as she thought those very words... things just took a complicated detour. With a loud crack, the wooden door literally busted open, sending detached hinges and splintered wood everywhere as a redheaded intruder barged her way into the rented inn room. Now who was going to pay for the damages? "Wha-?!" In high alert, Eldhi's knightly instincts took over as she brandished her longsword, gripping the weapon with both hands, eyes narrowing at the... small Felis with fiery hair and emerald eyes. She was short, really short, so much that Eldhi loomed over her by a good half foot, and here the knight thought she was one of the shorter players even after she exaggerated her avatar's height. However, this petite bruiser standing before them was around her in-real-life self's height. Nevertheless, by entering in such a brutish manner, the Felis had made herself an enemy! Time to confront this villainess like a proper knight should! "Who are you?! What is your purpo-" "My father?" Oberon perked up, unpurposedly interrupting Eldhi much to her dismay, "He sent you...?" The noble scoffed, "I shouldn't be surprised, my father is a tactless barbarian who thinks violence solves everything. Very well, I shall face you, Felis thug!" He was about to stand up if not for Lorencia stopping him. "Wait, everyone, please!" The noblewoman shouted, incredibly frustrated, "I implore you, no unnecessary bloodshed! Listen to me!" She took a deep breath then faced Sharara, "You, Sir Dawnfeld sent you, promising a reward, I assume. However, whatever he's paying you, I can double, no, triple the offer. What do you say?" Lorencia just had enough with all this violence! She wanted to live in peace with her love, was that too much?! "Uh... okay..." Eldhi blinked her eyes but then briskly shook her head before facing Sharara, standing between her and the nobles, "You heard the lady, what do you say? Know that I, Eldhi Arc, Knight of Justice, will face you in honorable combat should you continue on your unlawful path!" Now that, an uninterrupted ultimatum of a heroine to the villain, how chivalric was that? King Arthur himself would be proud.
Oh it was about to be on, first the lady knight was ready to fight, and then the merchants son was going to get into the mix. This was the sort of excitement that Sharara lived for, high flying adventure, death defying maneuvers, and fights against challenging odds. THIS WAS WHAT BEING AN ADVENTURER WAS ALL ABOUT! Sharara held the haft of her sword at her back despite the fact that unleashing the bulky thing in this small Inn room would spell out quite a bit of collateral damage. Not that that seemed to matter much to the Felis who was still standing on the splintered and broken door that she had kicked down to get into this room. She crouched slightly giving the white haired woman a stern look that seemed to say "come and get me" before the NPCs decided to interrupt their standoff. She was actually so excited to get into a scrap with the other player that she became instantly bored once the NPCs started talking about their problems. Ugh why did it always have to be about their problems, how come no one just wanted to get into a big drawn out scrap for the fate of everything anymore! It was like no one in this game had even a drop of dramatic sense in their bod. The first rule of an adventure was that two heroes who meet always had to fight for a while BEFORE they realized that everything was just a big misunderstanding. Having the NPCs just come out and say it was TOTALLY boring. She slid out of her stance and stood with her hands at her side, left ear twitching with a certain boredom as he listened to Lorencia talk about doubling or tripling what Sir Dawnfield had promised her. Then the other player spoke up. "You think what you're doing is more honorable than what I'm doing?! You think what I'm doing is unlawful!? I'll have you know Edhli, Knight of Justice" That part was in air quotes. "That what I'm doing is just as valid as what you're doing!" Sharara bristled at the knight for a moment, it seemed that the tension was rising again. Enough that the NPCs both took a step back when they started to realize that the two adventurers just might go at it. "But I get it, I don't want to hurt any innocent people... Especially someone who doesn't want to fight me." "Look kids, I get that you're in love or whatever... But I got a job to do... SHE has a job to do." Sharara motioned at Edlhi. "We don't live in some fairy tale fantasy world where everything is just going to work out just because you managed to convince us not to fight. Also hanging out in a public Inn where the fishmonger down the street can point out your location isn't exactly running away." She pointed to Oberon. "You didn't back down when I bust down the door and I respect that! That's the mark of a true man right there. So I'm gonna do you a solid and help you figure out what you're going to do in all this." She turned her attention back to Edhli. "How about it Clanks? Lets not fight... For the kids sake, deal?"
Aww... the lady just had to ruin things, she didn't expect the petite spitfire to be convinced by Lorencia's words. Then again, she used the power of gold, what else was new? Yes, yes, a knight was supposed to uphold law and order but damn, Eldhi would be lying if she didn't look forward to the fight. "Nnngh..." The white-haired girl sighed, one hand rubbing her forehead, she had no valid arguments there even if she wanted otherwise. "Fine..." With a grumble, Eldhi sheathed her sword, "Deal." Too bad, well, she could challenge the redheaded Felis to a duel later. "..." As for Oberon, truth to be told, his heart almost leaped out of his chest there. He was no warrior, no mercenary, he never fought anyone in his life outside of sparring matches with mentors. However, he knew the courage brimming in him was genuine, he was ready to protect Lorencia with his life if it was necessary, "Yes, let us go. I will talk to your father as soon as we arrive, Love." "Thank the Gods, you can see reason." Lorencia rubbed her chest in relief as she took Oberon's hand, standing up with him, "Then let us not dally, please escort us to my home, it's not far from here." "Well, there you have it." Eldhi shrugged, giving a small smile at the shorter warrior, "Let's go, yeah? There's nothing we can do otherwise. Oh, what's your name by the way?" If the Felis was willing to divulge her name, Eldhi would call her that, if not, then 'redhead' would do. --- Thus, the group of four made their way out of the tavern, not after Oberon paid for the ruined door, then ventured out into the Port City of Agripalia. The late afternoon sun casting an orange glow on the horizon, sea gulls cawing, all in all, It should be smooth sailing from here on out. ...That was until the party was approached by a cohort of unsavory sorts when they passed through a rather secluded alley. Three from the front, three from behind, boxing them in. "Well, well, well, look what we have here..." Then another one stepped forward, the leader by the look of things, a gruff looking sailor fellow with an 'x'-shaped scar on his cheek, smelling like ale, chuckled dryly, "Sir Dawnfeld is right, boys, can't trust a damned cat to do the job." The rest of the men guffawed, taking one step forward to the group, "What? Did you think he'd be stupid enough to not have a little... assurance, hmm? We're here to make sure you do your job, Felis, and it looks like you are being a very bad kitty." "You scums..." Oberon gritted his teeth, "My fat-" "Shut up, you noble brat!" The sailor spat, "We're taking you back, dead or alive, and at this point, I bet he'd prefer the former, and as for you, little princess..." He eyed Lorencia hungrily, "We'll have a little fun with you when we are done with your two lackeys here!" "Over my dead body!" Eldhi shielded the nobles on one side, opposed to Sharara's position on the other. "Heh... much obliged, get 'em, boys!" "Yaaaaah!!" With that, all six sailors-turned-hired thugs charged forward, brandishing cutlasses. Three towards Sharara and another three at Eldhi.
"Any man who would hire a thug to deal with his son can't be trusted, of course I knew that much." Sharara looked around the alley as they were surrounded, reaching back to her sword with a smirk on her face and a narrow of her eyes. Not in the way that she thought the situation was dangerous at all, but more that she was itching for a fight. That she was absolutely bursting to throw down with these men. She leveled her gaze on the one with the X shaped scar. "You best take back that cat comment before I write another letter on your face boyo." Not that her threat did much good, the others seemed to guffaw and hoot and hollar, talking about how they had been hired to deal with them and such. Oberon tried to get involved but he was promptly cut off by one of the tough looking thugs. A feat that she wished she had been able to pull off earlier, somehow being a small cat with a huge sword didn't pull off the same intimidation factor as being a huge man boxing the group in in the alley. At their assertion that they were going to have fun with the princess Sharara couldn't help but let out her own guffaw. "REALLY?! You had to pull out that tired old card? You do know you're facing off against two FEMALE adventurers right?! You wanna add more fuel to the fire, then be my guest." With that Sharara leveled her sword at one of the groups as Edhli had made her comment at the other. It seemed that there was some unspoken agreement between her and the knight. Keep the weak NPCs between them and each focus on a group of thugs. They didn't seem like they would be any sort of challenge; they were just stepping stones in the way of completing this quest. Okay... Maybe they were a little bit of a challenge, but not because the men themselves were all that tough. The alley that they were placed in was narrow enough that Sharara really couldn't let loose with her weapon of choice, she was reduced to about 40% of her horizontal swing which meant that she couldn't deal with their numbers as easily. Since that was the case there was really only one other way to handle this... "Hey... You guys should fear me more than anything else... They say Sailors in a storm are bound for death." Sharara ran her hand across the blade of her sword causing electricity from her Auramancy skills to arc along the blade, she gave a wicked grin. "I happen to be the storm." With that she cast her spell, it wasn't anything all that impressive. She wasn't exactly a wizard or anything like that, the Auramancy was meant to augment her physical abilities. So casting a lighting bolt straight down the alley wasn't nearly as powerful as if a full fledged wizard had done it. But it was enough to cause an impressive looking light show, striking one of the brutes in the chest, causing him to scream in pain falling back on his butt and writhing around as his muscles tensed. Another lightning bolt hit the second sailor shortly after, producing much of the same effects. These weren't enough to kill the men, but they did have the quality of stunning them. Which allowed Sharara to close the distance between her and the last sailor, not having to worry about his two friends getting in at her sides with their little knives. Of course, the standing sailor had his own small sword, he didn't have the reach that Sharara did, so it was easy for her to practically impale him and knock him to the side of the alley with a almost sinister laugh. But it totally wasn't sinister because she was a hero.
It seemed Sharara was more than capable of handling her own share of thugs, what with her shocking blasts and martial prowess. As for Oberon, he stayed close to Lorencia, protecting his one and true love while their escorts engaged with the thugs hired by his snake of a father. Meanwhile, Eldhi had her own cronies to deal with. The Paladin stood without fear against the three sailors. Her red eyes narrowed as her whole expression practically dared the thugs to take a step forward. Readying her longsword, she ran forward, bravery and conviction drove her on! As she closed the distance, her left arm reached out, palm outstretched, "Blinding Light!" The power of Illumancy burst forth from her as the aptly-named flash took the sailors by surprise, forcing them to close their eyes, leaving them open for attacks. "Haa!" The Paladin's light-edged blade cleaved down, splitting one sailor's head, slaying him. "Haaaa!" Determined to not underestimate her opponents, the white-haired swordswoman moved on to the next target, lunging forward as she buried her sword into another sailor's chest. The man gurgled as he went limp. By the time the third sailor recovered, he saw his two of his crewmates already laying dead with a growing pool of blood underneath their lifeless bodies. "Y-you... you... biiiiiitch!" Taken over by mixed terror and rage, he recklessly charged forward, which proved to be his undoing as the trained Paladin simply dodged his poorly aimed strike, that was enough to for his gut for the shorter warrior to drive her illuminance-buffed blade through his gut. --- "Hmph." Eldhi took a deep breath as her enemies lay defeated. It seemed she had overestimated them, they weren't warriors or guards or even squires, they were just drunkards who could only bluff and intimidate, loud barks but no bite. They were never a match for her. Tilting her head back for a moment, it seemed Sharara was finished with her share. This left only one thing.... "W-... wha... impossible..." The leader of the group, now suddenly found himself by his lonesome unless he counted those mangled corpses of his henchmen. The previously pretentious smug gave way to choking fear as his large frame trembled. He was frozen in place, not knowing what to do. If he tried to fight them, he'd only join the dead but if he ran, Sir Dawnfeld would kill him later. Either way, he was a dead man. Unless... "P-please! Please forgive me!" Without any regard for his dignity, the shark now looked more like a goldfish as he literally prostrated on the ground, "T-... take me with you! I will... I will do anything! I'll serve Lord Evenway! Yes!" "Disgusting..." Oberon spat, deeply frowning. Some men truly didn't deserve the life given to them. "Let's end his misery." "No, no! Please no!" He continued to beg. "Haaa..." Eldhi rubbed her forehead, seriously, he looked so pitiful right now, the Paladin didn't want to waste her energy on him, but maybe her Felis companion had ideas. "Sharara, what should we do with him?"
Sharara for her part had been crossing her arms under her chest as she watched the interaction between Eldhi and the sailor. The others had been given a quick death, which was really their own fault for fighting against two adventurers, untested as they were. There was a pang of remorse in Sharara's heart but it quickly passed, anyone who would intentionally put themselves in her path to the top would suffer the same fate. It wasn't evil or good to defend oneself against death, it was just the way the world worked right down to the smallest insects. Still. What to do about the grovelling Sailor? Sharara sauntered over next to where Eldhi was standing, her massive sword slung over her shoulder as easily as a batter with a baseball bat. With a flourish she brought it down impaling it into the soft earth right beside the kneeling sailor causing him to jump with fear. "OH Gods! Don't kill me please! I was just doing my job!" Kneeling down to his level, Sharara looked the man in the eyes for a moment; fixed on him with a grim expression. "Way I see it he surrendered and that means the codswill gets to live to see another sun." The man instantly burst into tears, practically overflowing with joy that he was going to be spared. But before he could actually voice his feelings into words, Sharara reached and pushed his face into the dirt. "But seeing as he stood in our way I say we do as they do with treacherous sea dogs and string him by his ankles him from the nearest mizzenmast. That'll teach him to take on jobs that he and his drunken goons can't swing." "Doesn't that seem a little cruel?" Lorencia argued, smoothing out her skirt after having cowered in the alley. "Can't we just let him go?" "We could do that girl, but that leaves him to scurry back to the boy's father and send more an more thugs after us." Sharara chewed on her thumbnail before standing up again. "Seems to me that he'd be willing to throw money at anyone with enough muscle to maybe do the job, how long do you think until he flags down an adventurer like myself who might not be a paragon of heroism such as myself." "Yes I agree, you adventurers are a powerful and terrible lot, we should avoid attracting another." "Stringing him up work for you Clanks? We're on a time table here."
Oberon believed ending the scarred sailor's misery right then and there was the best path to take, he supposed he could acquiesce to the Felis bruiser's wishes. It also served as a compromise since Lorencia wanted to just let the man go. No, as much as he respected his lover, the cowardly brute couldn't just walk away without consequences. "Yes, let's give him a taste of his own medicine." "Hehe..." The white-haired Paladin could barely contain her laughter, a giggle or two escaped her lips. The sight of a prostrating ruffian, Sharara's suggestion, and the mental image of said ruffian undergoing such an unusual - for Eldhi - punishment were a bit too much. Eldhi had no qualms herself as the thug deserved death for what he pulled, instead, he'd get another chance to live, he should be grateful really. "Alright, heh... now where can we find some rope?" --- Later on... "Heeeeeeeelp!!" That sunny afternoon in Port Agripalia, one could witness the peculiar sight of a sailor hanging by his ankle from a mast of one of the many docked ships, swaying about as he frantically waved his arms and bellowed to attract attention. People wondered how he even got there, rumors circulated about him being punished by his captain for disorderly conduct. As for the ones who were truly responsible for his deserved fate, they were already seated in the lavish living room of a manor belonging to the Evenway Patrician family. Fruits and drinks worthy of the elite were served on the ornate as Sharara and Eldhi were received with warm welcomes by Lord Evenway himself, a middle-aged noble with a well-trimmed mustache and a monocle on his right eye. Lorencia and Oberon were beside him as Evenway sighed in mixed relief and satisfaction. "I, Lord Evenway, give you my most sincere gratitude for returning my daughter and my future son-in-law. She told me everything, how that foul Sir Dawnfeld, sent thugs after them. That serpent will stop at nothing to secure his ill-funded businesess... even if it meant hurting his own son." Though the noble maintained his composure, the tell-tale signs of rage were bubbling just underneath the surface. With this travesty, Dawnfeld just declared war. Fortunately for Sharara, it seemed the fair Lady Lorencia deliberately omitted the fact that the Felis was originally sent by Dawnfeld, giving an 'alternative explanation' that she hired the redhead herself. "Sera Eldhi, brave Sharara, your reward is being prepared as we speak. Until then, know that my house will always have job offers for honest adventurers such as yourselves. Additionally, should you ever need to purchase our goods, I will make sure you will get a special price." The nobleman nodded, "Is there anything else I can do to show my thanks?" --- "You humble us, Milord." Eldhi, in her usual chivalric flair, diagonally crossed one arm on her chest then bowed, "It is my duty to protect the innocent and punish the wicked." She straigthened her back then sat back down on her seat, "Your offers are already more than enough for me." She said her piece, fully satisfied. "I see, thank you, honorable knight, then, how about you, brave warrior?" Dawnfeld turned to Sharara next, see if she had something to say. --- OOC: Alright! This should be my last post in the thread. You can make yours and I will submit the Quest for completion. It has been a blast RPing with you, Sharara! Hope we see each other again in the future!
Sharara didn't really fit in in these noble surroundings, she stood out like a sore thumb when she was standing on plush carpet. She couldn't hope to get comfortable holding a fine porcelain tea cup or sitting upon an overstuffed chair in a common area. She should have been out looking for treasure, wrestling with beasts more than two times her size, finding the next big thing for her to do. Not putting on heirs in some nobles mansion being thanked for her bravery in taking on some goons or what not. "Thank you, there's really nothing else you can do for me though." Sharara reached to rub at the back of her head, her ears lowered back as she felt anxious and out of place here. "I just want to get paid for what I was told I was gonna get paid for and I'll move on! I was really only here to get some supplies before I headed back into the wilderness to get into some more fights with the monsters!" Being the kind of blunt and forward person that she was she didn't bow or sit down, instead she offered the lord a rough handshake, the kind that you would see common people doing. "Future jobs might be nice though, I'll try to be more presentable like if I show up to your doorstep in the future." The cat girl sort of examined herself for a moment. "Well I'd be most happy if you did show up in better finery. However it's not necessary, you saved my daughter's life, your pay will be coming. Thank you both once again." --- OOC: Hey thanks so much for putting up with me, especially with me slowing things down with my injuries! It's been super fun RPing with you as well, I look forward to future adventures with you Eldhi!
