Meeting the Cook [Closed]

Meeting The Cook​

As our story begins, like any other day in Terrasphere. Our brave hero Aaron is traveling through the woods once more searching for the mysterious door which he can use the mysterious key he'd come across. This coupled with the desire to find hidden and secret locations or possible quests missed along the way for his journeys, leaving no stone unturned and no NPC unspoken to. The male had literally tried to read or skim through every book he found, search every nook and cranny of the homes along the way; ultimately leading him back to the beginning. The spawning point for all new players.

He found this location perfect for a Tank since he'd always run into someone who'd need his help. If it wasn't here he'd just cycle around the area for some time. After all, it wasn't like they were restricted by levels but those with low masteries would enjoy a bit of help from what would eventually become a veteran hero. But for now, he was in the same old shoes, attempting to better himself so he might upgrade his masteries and earn some new gear. Today no different than any other. Well aside from his sudden newfound quest, the desire to gain aid in finding some objects of interest in the woods for a young girl.

As such he'd shift through his notes earlier recalling what the girl so desperately required from him. The list was specific, she wanted some Mushrooms, a specific flower that grew down at the riverside and lastly some honey. His eyes shifting towards his screen to mark off what he found he'd sigh. He still needed the three items but found the optional two, the bark of the white elm. A specific petrified tree, found deep in the forest; where the magically attuned seemed to dwell. It was a bit spooky and otherwise spine tingling. The other was the purified water from the hidden springs, located not far towards the left.

Now, nearing the river to collect the flower the male would arch a brow, the sweet scents of the honey in the air he'd look about. Did he stumble upon a beehive along the way? Eyes glistening like a child who found a new toy he'd chucklesome as he spotted it,

"My oh my, my lucky day..."​

He'd say aloud as he charged forth with his shield ramming into the tree a few times til the hive cracked. The bees emerging and scattering to assault him he'd raise his shield and run away; the sounds of dings following him all the way to the river as he jumped in; like an old comedy, the bees floated about before taking off. Raising up wet now gasping for air he'd breath heavily trudging his way back to look. Pulling off his gear and storing them he'd shake and twist at the wet cloth as he grumbled angrily. His eyes shifting to the broken hive, opening it and gathering the honeycombs from it, he'd look at his inventory.

However, as he made his way forth to the river he'd look for the flower. But much to his surprise his eyes would spot a flicker in the distance, bright, perhaps the flower. Heading in the direction the object grew larger and soon it became apparent a fire. A grin passed as he slowly took off his shirt and hung it t dry; the realism was fantastic, sitting in just his shorts as his clothes dried with the heat of the fire, he'd only now realize there was a bag at the fire, did he stumble upon a campfire belonging to another. A faint blush passed as he looked about, was he nearly naked in what could be a hostile environment or the perfect opportunity to get Player Killed?

Quick to get up he'd turn hearing a shifting nearby, was it too late. Had someone found him; perhaps the owner was returning. What was he to do? Lips parting the male would swallow hard taking a deep breath,

"Sorry for this inconvenience, I didn't realize this was your campfire, I had a bit of an incident with the river and needed a place to dry if it's an issue I'll pack my things and get a move on..."​

He'd say his face blushing heavily upon further examination of meeting the supposed owner a female, cat? Rubbing his eyes he'd look confused and simply pose their showing of his Adonis like figure as he rubbed the back of his head now,

"What...what are you. I've never run into a player of that race."​

Confused and unsure he'd remain silent; dumbfounded. His mind racing trying to remember the options and such that he had to choose from; then again not much as there as he chose human immediately never much for odd races as he could never truly get into the idea of being a furry or whatever it was called. Although she was kind of cute. His hands reaching out he'd attempt to play with her ears.

"Those are kind of cool, the name is Aaron; Aaron, Steele. So tell me cutie who are you and whats with the face. Oh yeah, practically naked huh. Well, I showed my goods how about you show me yours....kidding of course. You can go ahead and take over our chatter here. I will just get dressed and make my exit if you're bothered. Although if I may, why are you out here. I am on this quest and can't seem to find this flower..."​

He'd say as he pulled the pants up and over the standard black boxers and looked up at her, puppy dog like eyes as if hoping she might have the urge to help him or inquire about the flower to aid his venture. A faint smile passed as the silence continued before breaking eye contact and getting dressed.

"You know maybe if you help me out I might help you, share the quest and help you pass it with ease."​

He'd say almost as if to bribe her, yet before any concrete things were set in stone he'd bite his lip some and blush again as his stomach made a large growl; his hunger clear as he rubbed the back of his head looking apologetic but remaining utterly silent. The fact he hadn't eaten in hours both game wise and in real life meant he would probably need to satisfy one if not both of the hunger pains; the latter being the easier.

"Well not to rush you, but I'd like to complete this as quickly as possible my hunger bar is low and I need to eat. Unless you got some grub on you or can cook some of the random mats I got on me I think I'd better put my quest on hold and get out of here? Perhaps you'd join me or whatever, not like I'm hitting on you or nothing I'm not that kind of weirdo..."​

He'd say grumbling off into a mumble at the end. His body now fully clothed as his arms wrapped around his abdominal, his stomach once more roaring in hunger as he looked to the water; perhaps he could go be a manly man and catch fish with his hands; although he had no cooking skills. Would eating raw fish yield that bad of a reaction. Tempted he'd shake his head and remove the thought as he soon sat down and groaned some, shifting his hand open to see what was suitable to help subside the hunger in his inventory.

@Isolt Veera

 

Isolt had ventured out today to pick up some things for a quest or two and to get some mats for cooking and alchemy. She had the skills she needed to gather what she needed and since neither of her brothers happened to want to help her out in this run she had a dagger to keep her safe and that was a good thing. She's let them be them and she'd be her. She had walked out to the forest. There were ingredients she needed. She wanted to be known throughout Terrasphere as one of the top alchemists/herbalists and cooks out there. For being a support character. She had chosen support because she liked helping others and plus it was just fun to see what a game would allow you to craft and this game allowed you to do any number of wonderful things. And she was more than willing to figure out what they all were.

Into the forest she had ventured. Even into the creep parts but had realized soon after that a few of the things she needed she was not going to get on her own. She wasn't strong enough. So she had set up a campfire for some lunch or was it dinner time already. Honestly she hadn't really figured out what time it was. It was dark in the forest and so she wouldn't really know the time of day anyways in here without the sun peeking through and that seemed to be hard. This place was wonderful she had to admit. Realistic and just wonderful.

isolt had set down by her fire for a little bit before she had went off to in search of a flower and then a few other things to make some potions with. She was going to learn as much as she could and quickly as she could because that was how she wanted to do it.She was heading back to the campfire when she heard a sound near it. She carefully came up on the campfire finding a male sitting by it but it didn't last long as she had made enough sound to alert him. This was just great. she prayed he wasn't a pker. As she half emerged out of the bushed into her campsite. She tilted her head at him as he started to speak. She blinked a few times and let out a soft. "Mew?" She shook her head a second later and took a breath as she started to bet her ears and she tilted her head again.

She pulled back a moment later. "Don't do that it tickles" she said with a giggle. "I'm a Felis." She said though her voice was soft and she stuttered a little. But well the man was standing nearly half naked infront of her and the she feel the blush rise on her cheeks. Sure she'd seen her brothers in no shirt and their boxers but come on now. She took a break trying not to stare. stop it isolt stop its just a game its just an avatar come off it. though he is cute. stop it listen to him babbling try to pick out the important stuff. She took a moment to realize she probably looked stupid. she cleared her throat.

"Its no trouble at all drying off is always a good thing." She heard his stomach grumbled and she giggled. "Well, I do have some food i can share. What kind of flower are you looking for. I was out here gathering things for both a quest and to make myself." She said in a happy tone and a little less on the shy stuttery side. She took a moment to figure out that there were only a few things that she needed to answer. She took a moment and grabbed her bag pulling out a piece of bread. "I made it earlier. Hope you like it. its banana bread." it was something at least.

she sat down to pull out a small cauldron she had gotten from a quest earlier in the day. Something that she could cook with on the go. Now she just needed to find a hunter and she'd be able to good meat. but for now she was just going to warm some water for some tea. "Care for some tea?" she questioned him. "I'm Isolt Veera by the way." she said and smiled at him. "So what's this quest. and if i help you you'll help me right?" She questioned him a smirk on her face much like a cat trying to toy with its food.

@Aaron Steele

 

As thing seemed to unfold before them, there wasn't much left to be said. Between their rosy cheeks and the slight flirting, it was cute, but cute didn't solve his hunger. Although her word and offer for food wouldn't go unnoticed. His hands shooting forth to accept such a kind gift he'd smile and then shift his gaze towards the bread. Banana bread; he had neve had it before, not even in real life. But he'd be willing to give it a try. Taking her gift and accepting the trade offer; he'd take a few bites of the bread and pause for a moment letting the taste sit on his taste buds. Savoring the flavor he's smile some and moans; Mmmmmm would escape his lips as he swallowed it and spoke.

"Wow, that is really tasty, so cute and you can cook. Anything else I should know or are you going to surprise me later with a great body and the sudden desire to share source code."

He'd say boldly and possibly joking. None the less the male would happily sit there and nibble at the bread some offering her half back so they could at least eat together. Listening to her words about what she was up to he'd arch a brow. What quest could that have been was it a different one or the same. Eyes shifting from the bread to her he'd continue to eat and let her talk. Watching her pull out the cauldron-like container and elaborate on her actions. He'd let her finished her words he'd nod and once more accept her offer for the gift; a warm cup of tea; which would go quite perfectly with the tasty banana bread.

"Tea sounds perfect, it would go well with the sweets. Although I'm not quite sure why you are giving me that look kitten, I'm not some toy to be played with. I've seen that look on cats faces, do I amuse you?"

He'd say in a serious tone teasing her as he folded his arms now, his free hand shifting from the empty plate which harbored the bread. Now placing a hand upon his hip unsheathing his sword part way before laughing and pointing at her face,

"Relax short stuff, I was teasing. I wouldn't strike a woman who didn't deserve it, let alone one so hospitable. Besides you scratch my back I'll stroke yours."

He'd say with a wink before waving his hands about and shifting through the menus. Overviewing his quest he'd request for her to join a party with him. Had she accepted; he'd share the quest with her and she'd see the picture of the flower; now shifting through the list he'd note what was collected and what was missing.

"Well that's what I need, send me your information so I can see what you need. Just the river flower and mushrooms. So what is it you need? Perhaps there is some overlap with what I have and you need."

He'd say as he awaiting confirmation to take on her quest his stomach still growling he'd chucklesome and look to the plate; perhaps she had more. If not he'd look back to her sliding over some more as he nudged her some, lips parting.

"So do you have anymore grub my frisky little friend? Maybe we can gather some extra materials to make a real meal. How does that sound?"

He'd say some poking her arm, before getting up and stretching. Finishing the Tea as he made his way down to the river and washed his hands and face. Looking back to her he'd smile some and wait for her to take the lead; as she clearly had some extra experience with the area in comparison. Given the fact she seemed to forage it more often than he. Regardless whether she was ready or not he seemed eager to go. Taking the lead and walking along the path; in hopes of finding the flower; it was rumored to glow at night and with the sky getting dark enough it might just become easier to find. His eyes scanning about he'd take note of his surroundings.

All to often adventurers seemed to be caught off guard; especially at night. Whether it was a beast or a monster, he felt the need to be somewhat protective of the fair lady; his lips curling he'd bite his lip some and reach back to hold her hand if she'd accept. the other hand holding the trivial shield, but one none the less. Eyes skimming over to her's and his warm smile passing he couldn't help but blush some. There was something about her that made him smile. Perhaps it was that darn kitten charm; not even a heartless monster could deny that charm. But he'd have to keep in mind that she might just as well be playing him and try to kill him when convenient if not be thinking the same.

So with caution, he'd tread the path searching for the flowers before hearing a wolf howl, eyes shifting to her his smile faded into a frown as he let go of her hand and held his sword now slowly crouching to a defensive stance.

"Tell me Islot, can you fight or am I to protect you. You know my services don't come free.."

He'd say jokingly as he motioned her to follow him; wishing to avoid any unnecessary fighting. Being a tank meant that he'd be better to defend and take damage. But without a healer, he'd need to risk taking a lot of damage and that risk wouldn't be worth it to activate the berserker sub-skill. At least not without having a whole other level of faith in this mysterious guest with him. Although she seemed nice, he never knew and would expect the same for her. Although as she slowly spun around behind her he'd keep guard on all sides; turning back to see her ahead of him he'd gander upon her backside a slight whistle and wink as to tease her would be all he did; faintly at most as to avoid attention.

But like all aspects of life, it appeared that he managed to gain some attention of unwanted guest; but who was it. Moving closer to her he'd hunker down and prepare to defend placing his sword in a stabbing motion. He was prepared for a fight. Yet slowly guiding her away from the bush there was a slight chance to escape and avoid combat entirely

[OOC Gonna roll the dice; even it's wolves odd its goblins. High we escape, low we have to fight. You can control the amount and what actions they make so it's more fun. If you want to escape instead and we succeed then we can do that or you can get the jump on them and we make the first strike.]

@Isolt Veera

 

If Isolt had been with any of her brothers Aaron wouldn't have gotten as far as to make mention of something as silly as sharing source code. Still she looked at him happy that he liked the bread she ahd given him. She had a sandwhich not something she had made but it would give him more if he needed it. She was however, at this moment busying herself with making them tea. She had to let out a small somewhat shy chuckle at his source code comment. "Well my kind Knight. that might just be something you'll have to wait and see for." She gave off a small giggle at it all and then handed him a tea cup. It wasn't much just made out of some of the herbs and leafs she had found. She laughed again when he said he was not some toy and asked if he amused her. She watched as she pulled his sword. Now for her she was already fairly certain he was not going to kill her but that was still in the back of her mind.

So as she pulled it she eyed him caustiously. She slid over the sandwhich she had so he could eat more if he liked. She was perfectly alright with that. She'd had a little to eat in town before she had come on her gathering mission. "Don't you know its not kind to just randomly try to pull a sword on a lady. I'll let you slide this time. And you do amuse me. I don't think you are a toy but I am a cat person so the personality should fit right?" she said with a shrug of her shoulders as she started to put her things away. She looked up as the party button showed up and she accepted it without even thinking twice. she had already agreed to help him and so when the flower for the quest popped up she smiled. Oh she knew where that flower was but it wasn't easy to pick and it might be better to pick after the sun went down.

She shared what she had and he was in luck she had some of the mushrooms that he needed. They might only need to collect a few more in order to make sure that they had enough. She shared with him her mission. The optional ingredients that he needed to get. The water from the hidden spring and the elm wood from deeper into the forest. It looked like she had gathered mostly the things she needed. Some herbal leaves a few herbs themselves. All things looking like they might be for cooking and for making something a little more sinister. And potions perhaps. She smiled at him as he started to lead the way. She quick to follow him. She thought about taking his hand when it was offered. It took her a second but she slowly put her hand in his and when she heard the wolf her ears twitched trying to pick up any other sounds that were going on at the moment.

She had already gone into a defensive stance and her dagger was pulled. "I can fight but you have a sheild so if you don't mind giving me a little protection I think we'll be okay."How bad could the things in here be they were only beginners right? she took a deep breath and waited to see what would come out of the bushes. Thankfully as the goblin moved so did she. She took her dagger heading at it and striking quickly before falling back behind Aaron and his shield. His hit should take it out hopefully. At least she hoped anyways. They were heading in the right direction of the flower and the mushrooms anyways. She looked at him. "More are coming."
(ooc: taking the we have to fight option only she sees one goblin. but two or three more are hiding you choose that. we got first strike)

@Aaron Steele[/B]

 

As he joked about source code he'd blush some at her reaction; the comment of wait and see implied much more than he was anticipated let alone hoped for. But he'd simply look away and carry on pretending she'd never really say much. Yet, as he tried to change the mood some teasing her about amusing her and pulling his sword he'd note her pushing the sandwich over as she once more retorted about his actions and her general kindness. Sighing the male would take half the sandwich instead as he ate slowly shifting his gaze to the side. Listening to her scold him as he tried to make sense of her actions he'd smile; she was fairly cat like so it made sense.

Yet as words and actions continued; their exchange would result in the completion of a party. A faint smile passing as he awaited her to look over the logs; noting the key objects missing she'd hand over some mushrooms making his goal a bit easier to reach yet he failed to seem to see what she was missing; waiting for her to accept and share her mission he'd note most was complete. Nothing in specific was needed except perhaps a thing or two, but they were optional. They luckily appeared to be what he had already gathered and in bulk. So she'd be closer to completing then she was initially going to be. Together it seemed between the two of them they were each missing an object. The flower and herbs.

As he took off to take the lead and offered his hand, she'd accept happily merely moments later; now holding hands. Eyes shifting forward the pink tint to his cheeks were noticeable as he continues to hold her hand for some time, making his way around and by the river in search of the luminous flower; yet to no avail. It wouldn't be long into their journey before the howl was heard from the wolves nearby and her ears twitched; adorable. So cute and innocent he'd chuckle at her reaction. Yet changing his stance to the defensive and hunkering down he'd note the goblin and her quick and nimble reflexes; truly worthy of calling herself a cat.

Thus upon her strike being made he'd roll in planting himself in front of her as she hid behind him; the goblin weak and striking the shield before being shield bashed knocking him back as arron thrust the blade up and inward attempting to slice the beast in half upward; the damage required to finish the goblin off more than enough as it became divided and overkilled; bursting into data. A grin passing as he looked back nodding. The passing of time allowing for the next few goblins to appear. A total of three, each one moving around them; surrounding them in a triangular form. Eyes scanning he'd part his lips to take charge of the situation.

"Alright, beautiful. This is going to be tricky, but trust me. Our one-two combo needs to be flawless again; strike the goblin of choice. I'll block it and finish it off; spin about and block again. You follow up behind me after I block and strike again. So long as you follow my lead; pop up out of nowhere we'll be fine. These fucks won't know what hit them. You Ready? Alright, GO!"​

He'd shout as he took the lead rushing in to bash outward causing the 1st to stumble at his left then strike upward at; his shield slamming before him as to block the retaliation shot. Thus moving giving the felis girl a chance to strike and finish. His body pivoting around to swing the shield blocking the incoming shots; only getting stabbed on the side some. As he grunts and slams his shield into the goblin who was successful in striking him. Knocking him back with a slight stun; providing the female a chance to strike it down if not come close. His sword however during this pivot would swing striking at the other goblin; yet be blocked himself and stabbed in his arm.

Falling back he'd grunt some angered; his rage filling him. Each percent of health missing adding to his rage and thus increasing his value in damage. His sword now lowered he'd charge in again battering the shield upward as to lift the goblin and fling him into the air. His sword swiftly swinging back would attempt to slice him in half as he shouted angrily before the torso and legs were cleaved in two his landing downward would splatter artificial blood before it disappeared as he dispersed into data. His eyes a glowing red seemed to indicate his berserk mode as he turned once more taking the defense as he grinned.

"It appears these bastards want to play. Looks like three more are on their way. Think you can handle a few more or shall I stop holding back and really let them have it."​

He'd say excited; his heart beating fast as four more goblins rolled up lined before him and the female; the one which remained from the last three appeared injured and crawling away. If she was quick enough she'd finish him off and prepare the strike on the next one. A giant in his own right the male would begin moving forth like a steam engine appearing behind the small cat like girl, as the goblins all charged in at her. His body leaping up into the air would come down striking hard with both the shield and sword. His body crashing down on them. Taking several more strikes; his health bar lowering but the damage output increasing.

By this point had they finished the first three goblins the new four would result in two near death and two others taking the defensive. His rage increasing the health bar now nearing it's halfway marked he'd laugh and slam his sword up against his shield grunting as if to show his dominance over the tiny goblins. A few stumbling back; the injured ones as his technique appeared to aggro the other two; blinding them from being crit shot by the young dagger wielding cat. His shield slamming upward to block one taking the other strike as his sword shoved into and gut that one instantly killing it; the other stunned in place, he'd run off towards the injured ones as they ran. His sword charged back as she shouted.

"YOU'RE NOT GETTING AWAY THAT EASY!"​

He'd shout loudly as he chased after them; his rage getting the better of him as he chased them about the field. Their direction changing towards the girl as he grinned

"FINISH THEM!"​

He'd demand as he jumped up piercing through one of them finishing them off; if all went to plan the duo would have finished off all seven goblins while walking away with minimal damage; at least she would as he took hits and utilized his berserk mode; his health above health allowed him to keep better control as he slowly phased down and out of his anger and focused upon her. Eyes scanning he'd sheath his blade and run a hand pushing her hair back as he leaned in and wiped some blood from her cheek. A faint chuckle passed as he then leaned in and kissed her forehead. No words shared, but a simple gesture.

As he turned and began to walk once more along the river in search of the flower. Pausing only briefly to turn around and look at her laughing before shaking his head and walking once more.

"You going to blush all day or you coming along with me. I'm sure those goblins will be bac to avenge their buds, but don't let me stop you from hanging with your new dead friends. You know you have some pretty good moves for a cat, land on your feet quite well, I wouldn't mind teaming up with you in the future for combat. I mean who knows, If I'm going to make this a frequent thing, like partying up then yeah...then again you said I would need to wait and see; can't do that if I don't see more of you."​

He said chuckling as he continued the search. His actions bold but truly gentleman like as he did his best to protect her and at the same time gave her an honest gesture of interest. None the less as he searched the water's edge he'd notice some flowers; a strange glow was near them. Could that be the flower or was it something trivial like some bug? Either way he'd investigate and hopefully find his flower if not perhaps something she could use or a neat little collectable; insect. Approaching the area he'd move about the grass til the glowing object was in site and with a smile he'd realized just what it was.

[OOC: If it's even it's the flower, Odd it's some glowing bug or something you can use/need.]

@Isolt Veera

 

Cats usually never made much sense to most people. They did what they wanted when they wanted and merely played with those around them. Right now Aaron was amusing her at least with all the teasing and everything else going on between them right now. Even her scolding wasn't really something that was to be taken too seriously. She was fairly certain that if he had wanted to kill her he would have done so already. She took a breath once she realized what he needed. She didn't need much. Save for the stuff from the pool and the wood. It was something she needed to get the mat for one of the alchemy things she wanted to make. On top of that she needed some willow bark in general as it was one of the main ingredients to the healing potions. Or at least it made sense to be anyways.

Once the fighting started though she was definately ready to go but Aaron seemed to be able to have the right types of skills that they needed for this. She was good with striking fast and hard. It was how a dagger worked and she walked as he killed the first goblin and then told her what it was that they were going do with the rest of the goblins that seemed to be coming their way. She gave him a nod and then answered him softly. "you got it let's get this party started." She said excited and ready to do this thing. The more she used her skills the higher she would get in her masteries and so she was up for just about anything at the moment.

Surrounded as they might have been and for a rookie at least in virtual reality anyways, Isolt was doing exactly what shew as supposed to do following Aarons lead. She popped out when the goblin was weakened by being hit by Aaron. She struck him down watching his pixelate into data and disappear. She was quick to get behind him again. Striking out only when it was right to strike out. She got hit by one of the other ones which made her eyes narrow. It wasn't that much health that was lost but she didn't like the idea of being killed by a goblin. She ran behind Aaron and was watching him. His health was going down too and she wanted to make sure she kept an eye on it. She would then know how often she might need to make potions and healing slaves. And if she would need to use anything she had right now on her.

The call to finish them came and she did exactly what he asked finished the ones and looked over at him. She was blushing a bit and he kissed her forehead. She giggled a little blush appearing on her cheeks. She was so not going to be around when those goblins came back so she caught up with him quickly as they started to search for what it was that they were looking for. She was having a bit of fun and she could tell that it was possible they wouldn't make it through too much more if they didn't rest a bit and make sure they let their health go back up. She laughed a little bit at him as they went back to searching for the flower.

She found a few of the mushrooms and put them into the inventory she had and then handed some to him. "If you aren't careful you will miss them. But they are plenty so I'm sure we will collect all the mushrooms needed quickly." She was still looking for the flower and though it wasn't to easy to find apparently and that was getting a little frusterating. The light was fading in the sky and so she was sure they would find it soon. However, that was not what it was that they found. Only she saw a glowing bug a beetle it looked like. She looked at it for a moment and picked it up. She looked at what it might be used for as he struggled in her hands. It took only a moment for her to smile and put it into her inventory. Yup that would be useful for her. Again she bent down and picked up some mushrooms.

She went down farther as she looked around the river. There had to be a flower around somewhere. She looked over toward the right and the left and then in the distance. Far in the distance she saw a glowing flower. "Hey I think what we are looking for is over there. Off to the left. There seems to be some on the other side of the river too." She smiled back at him doing a little head tilt as she did so looking very much so like a cat ready to pounce on what they needed at the moment. However, she found another beetle pounced on that and put it in her inventory.

(i need to figure out how to roll die lol)

 

Having searched the area and found nothing more than a glowing bug he'd smile pulling back as to let her see and claim her prize; but man was it frustrating. But nothing was easy; Hopefully, this task would pay handsomely. As he found that fetch quests normally are low paying; but the ones which you have to hunt and gather items and bring bonus items tend to pay a bit better. Considering how rare this flower seemed to be, he'd continue the search and in such a way he was adamant about giving up. So he'd search a few more times and scout about the river; especially his partner in crimes, alleged sighting of the glowing enigma. Part of him figured it might all be a ploy to get players to spend time aimlessly searching.

Although this was a bit pessimistic he normally had a more positive attitude, but for the sake of his luck he'd search a few spots; taking any glowing flowers he'd find. Just in case one wasn't enough, let alone the correct flower. His eyes scanning at the first glowing spot that his team mate had pointed out. Reaching down and gathering whatever it was he'd place it in his inventory, noting another glowing object not far off he'd instruct her to go and fetch it that way splitting up. Either one on the other side of the river. A faint smile passed as he had spotted his next target to search; a faint glow near the grassy brush; just along the river; several in fact.

Arriving at the Bush his grin faded as he noticed immediately they were bugs. Not even a chance for the flower; but he'd collect them anyway for the female. Who knows, maybe if he bought a jar he might have a makeshift light for some cave dwelling. Chuckling to himself he'd leave the remaining bugs alone and head over to her side to see is she had any luck at her end. Trudging through the water; only knee deep he'd shake his legs upon exiting trying to break free of the ever loving water and it's desire to embrace him. Although it was much better than having leeches all over. Did he remember that exact event happening as a kid; did the game even have leeches?

Thrown die:

"So what kind of luck you have over here? Anything of interest; oooh nice. Well, let's keep looking a bit more; just in case we find a few more items worth keeping. If not I'll just try and stick to the river; don't want to get lost; we are going to need to find our way back. It also seems to be this part of the game is oddly safe; although that could just be misleading"​

He'd say with a chuckle before nudging her some and walking with his hands in his pockets. Eyes scanning up to what was now the moon by this point in time as he gazed upon its beauty.

"You know, I'm not normally the type to get into games, in the real world I was more the type to play sports and work out. I use to think gamers were lazy fat slobs who never wanted anything in life. I've slowly learned it's not the case. It's far more diverse and everyone seems to be here for the same thing; well the majority. You got trolls and try hards. But for the most part, it just seems we are all here to have fun.

I won't lie, this game feels mentally like a work out at times; I don't feel sore but I get the same adrenaline and that is something I've never felt before outside of getting physical. To be honest, I think I've found my center in life; work at my gym in real life. Keep my body fit and at night play the game to relax while working on my mind and socializing. What about you, tell me something about yourself, Anything worth sharing? I mean I came here with the mind to help protect my sister and in return have found my own safe haven."​

He'd say as they continued the banter until they came across another patch of flowers a strange glowing found inside. Regardless of the flower he needed being their or not he'd collect a few and place one into her hair and smile,

"Still doesn't quite capture your beauty. So tell me, are you some kind of crazy cat lady in real life who lives alone with Fluffy, Mr. Bigglesworth, and 26 other furry friends? Do you have animals? I have a dog, Bella, my husky. Really beautiful dog; she has a black top that fades to gray. With slight hints of brown and red towards the back of her neck; a pure white under belly and her eyes are the most beautiful shade of blue; almost as if they were ice. I mean I love animals but never was much for cats; well until recently."​

He'd say blushing some as he nibbled at his lip some nervously taking her hand as if to claim it without question confidently walking with her; hoping she might open up and simply enjoy their night beneath the moon; his eyes gazing upon her skin as it glowed with the light of the moon. The flower complimenting her even more so the inevitable tinted blush and hopefully that cute twitch she did with her ears when flustered. Although it was getting late he wouldn't mind spending the night far into the morning with her. Lips parting almost as if to ask he'd pause momentarily. Turning to her he'd rub the back of his head.

"I'm sorry about the source code joke earlier, I'd like to honestly get to know you. Ya know maybe join up and become a team. What do you say we ya know travel together. I mean I've had a good time, your skills aren't bad and well your not a bad to look at. I mean honestly we make a good team and well if you're not interested at least agree to stay until the sunrises; we can watch it together and see how you feel then. Not that I'm implying it's a date; not that it couldn't be if you want to...I'm gonna shut up now."​

he'd say before leaning in to kiss her forehead but instead spotted another glowing spot and simply bolted around her and ran off to investigate the area once more; not noticing the moving vine slithering along the ground and the grin in the background as he approached the trap that was laid out for him. Eyes shifting as he soon felt lifted into the air and hanging he'd look angrily at the giant fly trap looking beast as he noted similarities to it. All along it was the small flowers he was looking for, yet all he could think was; fuck my life.

[OOC: Same rolls even are flowers, odds are not. The flowers we are searching for though belongs to this area boss. Unofficial just a stronger enemy. Feel free to engage it and start our lengthy fight; maybe 3 combat posts long total is the goal; each.]

@Isolt Veera

 

She took a moment to look at the things around them. She was sure they had the mushrooms in abundance so she stopped caring about those. Granted she was looking for the things in game that might make some of the potion stuff that she needed and what might be used in herbs that she needed for cooking. Really she was nothing more than a support character. You need them just as much as you need those like Aaron. Tanks and Dps and all that stuff. To be perfectly honest she just wanted to help others out and so she had chosen the skills to do just that. Not that she couldn't add a few more skills that would help with not dying later on either. She was doing well though and she rather liked what she was doing. She was not at all discouraged by not finding what it was that they really needed. She was though starting to wonder if the flower was actually something that was going to be alot harder then they thought it was going to be to get it. She took a deep breath and kept her eyes on Aaron for a moment and then glanced back to her surroundings.

After a few moments she saw flying bugs that were glowing and she giggled a little bit. A trip from long ago came to her mind. Fireflies that's what these bugs looked like. She was going to have to get a jar and capture them to keep them around later no. But they were pretty to watch and she kept watching them for a long moment. She snapped back to reality when she heard Aaron asking her if she had found anything. She shook her head. "Nope just a few glowing beetles and what looks like fireflies." That was pretty much all she had seen. And the she started to fully listen to him as he started to say what it was that he did in the real world. She wondered if that was proper ettiqute letting so much out. But them it happened in every game so she smiled at him. "You know some people thought that of my brothers. But my brothers are really smart. And active for that matter. My big brother was on the varsity football team when he was a senior in highschool. My other brother was valevictorian for his graduation and graduated highschool with honors. Both of them avid gamers and they are the ones that started me in it." She smiled a bit at him.

She let him put the flower in her hair. She smelled the flowers around them and the all smelled so good. She tilted her head and her ears twitch just before she started to giggle a little bit. "I'm not a crazy cat lady though I do have a kitten named Gypsy. she's a little black kitten. Pretty blue eyes though." she said happily. But she was not some crazy cat lady. "your dog sounds really pretty." She commented a few moments later. She giggled at his comment about not being much for cat's until recently. She couldn't help but giggle a little more as she knew that most people just had to met a cat that liked them before they changed their mind on the furry little annoyances. As some might say. she loved her kitten so much that it wasn't like she ever though the tendencies of the felines were annoying or mean. Though she had called her kitten an ass the other day because she had decided to knock off a glass.

Aaron a few moments later was apologizing about the source code joke. "Its all good." She said as they continued down the river looking around. "Working as part of a team sounds like alot of fun actually. and getting to know you more sounds like fun too. after all you are good at what you do and you are really helpful to have around. I wouldn't have gotten half of what we have gotten if i had run into those goblins myself." She started to smile a little more a blush rising more making her face almost cherry red thank to his mentioned of a date or something like that. "Its alright, let's just make it that we are two adventurers on an adventure and if it comes to more than that well you know." Really she just wanted to make a friend right now. And if it went farther then it went farther.

He kissed her forehead making the blush worse and her ears twitch a little as she ran after him looking to the glowing patch and doubled back a little bit. More like barely missed the carefully laid trap. "SHIT" She called out and then calmed herself and went on the attack. After all it was just a fly trap beast right. How hard could it really be. Damn it having what they needed though. She shook her head and wondered if there was more in the are. Still she went to attack the creature after all they needed it. She attacked once and fell back watching looking at the health meter that didn't really go down very much. "Its stronger then i hoped for." She said as she waited to see if he could do anything as she would try to cut down the vine that was holding him. Granted she didn't want to get to close and not get out of it.

Thrown die:

(and there is my attack. also if its odd i get caught by the vine if its even i escape it because i feel like doing this.)

 

A hardy chuckle had passed as he nervously swung about slashing at the vine like tendrils that made their way at him. His eyes shifting he'd frown as he saw her charge in, so reckless but thankful. This was until he saw how little of damage she did. Watching her slice through a vine as it attempted to grapple her made him grin. He'd do the same. Slicing off the vine that held his leg he'd not another in the way, blocking with his shield and slicing at another free falling some before being grasped once more; the vine wrapping around his body. A faint grunt could be heard as he tried to wiggle free, held tight in the beast's grasp he'd ever so slowly be brought to the central area of the trap; acid spewing as he looked over to her with a concerned look.


"I don't mean to be that guy, but think you could maybe help me out already, FUCK THIS THING IS UGLY!"


He'd shout as he flexed popping his arms back trying to break loose; using the blade beside him to rub up and down slowly before cutting himself out and landing on his knee his shield held out and the sword cocked backward. He'd charge forth like the female; stomping on the ground his eyes aglow as he swung his blade faster and harder cutting away at the beast's health bar; dropping ten percent between the two of them. His strikes deflecting and dismembering the beast. Causing a sense of success, but unlike what one might expect, the tendrils would grow back providing yet again, another alternative to deal with, but at twice the amount.


Like the hydra, cut off one and two more grew in its place. His body bashing them away before jumping up to plunge the sword into the beast's base; the shield blocking the incoming spit; a weaker acid which merely made the shield steam. His blade pulling back he'd grin swiping it back clearing gunk off it as he spoke clearly to her.


"Hey, beauty think we stand a chance or should we try to just snag the flower and go. My health is nearing the half way mark again and I can't afford the death; especially if what is rumored to be true about penalties. Anyways about that sunrise, if I don't make it can you tell the brothers we made out, I just want to imagine the look on their faces when you tell them the man they want to kill is already dead."


He'd laugh taking the defensive as well as taking a lashing her and there; his humor a bit dark. Yet at the same time, he'd hope she enjoyed it enough to stomach him being around. Running away and along the edge of the area trying to come up and around the beast he'd slap it's tentacle away as it ran up and back it's side. Attempting to get closer to the core again only to have it turn on him, swatting him away; clearly, it's weak point and the main location it protected. As the duo pushed onward in attempts to slay the beast they'd strike and be stricken. The male trying to leap in the way when he could to take the hit or block it for his newfound teammate.


However, upon further examination of his options it would turn out he was shit out of luck as slicing the flowers off yielded no item; it would appear it would be an inventory drop So they would, of course, need to slay the plant. A task that by this point only yielded sold twenty percent of its health. Lips parting to breath once more going on the defensive he'd inquire once more with her.


"You know I'm pretty tired, but I can keep going. I'm not a full rage more, let alone too exhausted to fight. But if you had any, I'd love a potion or some sort of healing attempt. It would help me with my issue."


He was not a fan of going on the offensive with such low health, at least not against this kind of opponent then he remembered something. Turning he'd begin to high tail it, running to the water as the beast followed. Should she take this opportunity she'd have a clear shot at its back side for a critical shot if not be able to assist him with turning the fight around; soaking the vines. Using the same embrace for water which slowed him and made it difficult. Seeing as the trap flower began to enter the water; thus slowing itself some. His shield blocking the strikes it would have made on it as well as slice and topple it from above.


At least that was the end game the beast's health slowly lowering; it would appear although it regenerated, it still lost health, if not more for it to be able to do such thing to begin with. A smile passing as he'd run back around the beast presenting it's back side to the river; most likely meeting back up with the felis,


"So I've noticed, have you? The thing is slower in water, regenerating seems to cost it more healthy and we can topple it some as the regeneration process seems to be stifled by the water for some reason. So, let's try and use this to our advantage. Also, I'm noticing the natural flow of the river is helping force it to struggle. Thoughts, like can you shock it or maybe use any hydromancy?"


He'd inquire as the beasts' health was own one-third of the way. His own adequately lower yet with newfound information reaching his second wind. Eyes still glowing red; excited he'd charge back in blocked an trying to make an opening for a strike upon the base of the flower; causing more damage as well a causing it to loose balance perhaps thanks to the river.

[OOC: Roll with whatever you feel is necessary. This little stunt is to lead to the path and destruction of the plant. 1/3 posts needed to complete it. The next one will wrap it up mostly and thus leaving room for its death in the following; third. The last post; was the partial copy that was saved before my nap not the full one here]

 

A dagger could only do so much damage. Isolt went after the vine trying to figure out what it was that she could do to get closer without getting caught. She didn't want Aaron to get hurt anymore then he already was. This creature wasn't going to be easy for them to beat that was for sure and she noticed as she finally manage to cut off a part of the fine that it grew back. She squeaked as one of the vines tried to go after her but she was fast enough to jump back from it so that she didn't get caught. She was only doing a small amount of damage if Aaron was out he might be able to do more damage then she would be able to do at the current moment. It wasn't like daggers did all the damage in the world or anything like that. And the one starter dagger she had was just well it was silly to think that it would be able to do a tone of damage in one go.

"If you are nearing the half way mark we need to find a way to disengage enough for a few moments. I might be able to distract it a little bit but I don't have any potions on me. I didn't have the money to buy any or anything to make anything with at the moment." she felt a little useless right now but she'd get better. After all they were beginners here weren't they. She did however get a chance to let out a little bit of a giggle to his comment about telling her brothers that they made out just to see what they would say when she told them that he was already dead and that they couldn't kill him. She took a deep breath and went right back to trying to find a way to either get the flower or help him out some other way. She had a few things that would help in the possible making of some healing potions but she didn't have the time to make anything on the go right now. It was more of a let's live through this.

She watched as he went into a type of rage eyes glowing red. She listenened to his words but as he ran she took the opprotunity he had given her. And she went to the back side of the monster and hit it at least twice before it ended up in the water. Then it seemed to slow down and she snapped out of her thoughts for only a moment to hear Aaron come up with a plan. "I don't have any magic. At least not yet anyways. I pretty much went with crafting and something to help me so that i could go gather things. Didn't realize i might need a little more than what i have." She took a deep breath and mentally berated herself for that oversight.

She went for the creatures back again and nearly got snapped by a vine. Shit shit not good shit She took a hit and watched her health. Oh what fun was this she wouldn't last much longer either. But if they could keep it in the water. She watched him block and then try to strike the base of the flower causing more damage and then she went after it and was in the water as well. If they could just keep it here. And since they were both in the water now maybe it would stick in it to follow them. She went towards the back of it for a moment as it seemed to topple a little bit getting off balance as she hit it again it losing its health a little quicker now as it was disoriented.

@Aaron Steele

 

A wide grin passed a combination of pride, happiness and his rage. As he hacked and slashed away at the great beastly plant he'd grunt; between each strike. Listening to her words he'd laugh some before striking harder. Each hit made upon him blocked or not ticked away at his health and with nothing to heal it was him or the plant. Each move had to be precise and thought out. Yet watching her get slammed hard his anger grew. His lust for blood growing as he slashed harder at the plants base before slashing upward then down and spinning. All sorts of hacks and slashes were made; forcing the vines to regrow and spread; causing the plant to topple some, one side being overly grown compared to the other. The plan was working. As eventually, he'd turn to run away he'd watch the plant struggle to keep up, stopping to aggro it here and there he'd pull it back up river.

His speed never faltering he'd run and on the land running about trying to circle the thing before appearing behind it slashing at its base rapidly hitting the same root; his lips curling as it flung out knocking him back up into the air before landing his health was nearing it's forty percent mark. He was going to need to end it soon or he'd screw the pooch, both figuratively and literally. His assault focused now he'd jump back in; tick by tick his health dropping, Thirty-Five, Thirty, Twenty-five. The more health lost the more damage dealt and before he knew it, the creature would suddenly be in the red zone. Near death less than ten percent it's overall health. Yet he was nearing the Fifteen mark himself.

It was going to be a close one. However, he knew if his team mate kept up aiding him. It would be dead in just a few dozen more hits, the sudden shift from his attacks on a single root meant the unbalance was now creating a stand forcing the top of the plant down; the center now visible and easily strike; the weakest point. Had either managed to nail that a few times it would most likely Die. Eyes shifting to her he'd grin, "It's been nice knowing you kitten." He'd say smiling before running into the mouth; his health dropping one percentage a second on average as the male struck the center once, twice, thrice and continued until his health mark hit eight percent roughly and the flower burst into data. Eyes shifting he'd look to her collapsing as he took a moment to catch his breath; exhausted he realized it was probably in his best interest to rest more.

But knowing he wasn't exactly safe he'd point to the flowers and smile, "Gather up our prize, then come help me up and we can head back to camp, I need some sleep. Resting some will help greatly." As his words finished he'd plant his forehead on the ground, exhausted as he slowly pushed himself up and made his way over to her resting an arm over her shoulder for support as he looked at the bag to see what loot was earned, "Any health potions there?" he asked curiously as if to perhaps inquire about drinking one. However, seeing her health he'd smile and be a bit stubborn, "You should probably drink it if so. I'll be alright. It barely scratched the surface; merely a flesh wound." He'd say chuckling to himself.

Now slowly raising up on his own feet he'd slowly begin to walk as if to reassure her he was okay. A bit of a stumble at first he'd do it alone and point to the flickering fire off at the distance, "I see camp, hello campsite, good night world." he'd say jokingly as they finally arrived and he turned around to fall on his back staring up at the stars,"It is really pretty, So, while we rest, what do you want to talk about. If I fall asleep I apologize." he'd say in advance closing his eyes and talking. "I'd like to imagine it's how awesome I am and how you couldn't imagine a team without me. That or how cute I was the first time we met...or do you not remember that. I think I'm starting to remember a bit more vaguely. But it's all good a lot has changed since then." he said smiling as if to tease about time having passed but truly meaning that he'd changed personally.

His eye-opening to peek; he'd place a hand upon her lap and pat it, "But you don't need to stroke my ego, I'll settle for a kiss on the cheek and my hair played with." he'd say with a smile before resting his arms at his side and rolling his head into her lap;should she allow it while she sat down. His body no longer tense and slowly relaxing as he nodded off; his life in her hands. Hoping she'd protect him and not betray him; by murdering him in his sleep. But only time could tell what his fate would be.
@Isolt Veera

 

Isolt had not been happy once she had gotten hit but it hadn't slowed her too much. However, she noticed that Aaron's own rage seemed to increase around the time she had gotten hit and she couldn't help but blush a little cause he'd gotten angry at her getting herself hit. She was usually more nimble but things were different when you were fighting with your whole body. Something she was getting used too in the virtual world and something that she loved because it made her believe that outside this world she'd be better too. She watched as the plant became a little too heavy on one side thanks to how quickly Aaron could slash and cut at it. Where as it grew slower on her side but she could manage to get hits into the center.

Aaron really was amazing to watch in a fight and had it not been life and death on both their cases she would have probably been distracted by his fighting style but seeing as his life depended on whether she got her hits off or not kept her from doing just that. He'd run and she would follow behind them so that they could literally keep hitting it relentlessly as it slowed in the water. He was losing health as was the plant and she was trying to think of a way to kill the plant and still get what the needed if it did kill him. She was at a disadvantage here. She took a moment and watched eyes wide as Aaron ran into the mouth of the plant and she held her breath until he appeared out of the explosion that resulted in whatever attacks he was doing inside and her last hit from the outside.

She was about to run to him as she picked up a health potion and the flower that they needed. That health potion probably dropped for him in the first place as it seemed that would make the most since for the person with the last hit to get that. She collected everything and moved to him to help him up if he wanted the help. She made sure to stay close to him and she pushed the potion to him. "You are drinking it. I'm fine." she said and then she saw the camp and smiled and he was joking but she was happy to seemed to be ready to go to sleep. She would make a soft giggle and then she would sit down herself and tend to the fire a bit and then look at what she had if there was anything left for her to eat and for him to have when he woke up.

"Well we can talke about many things. But Yes I am remembering when we first met. I was really overwhelmed at the time so it could account for why it took me so long to remember." she giggled again and then she moved to sit next to him and even though he was joking she did kiss him on the cheek and let him rest his head on her lap as she played with his hair a little bit. Kinda a funny thing when it came to the fact that she was the cat here. But hey no matter he had done a good job in making sure they had both not died there. She started to hum a little bit. She was no singer but humming always kept her calm and then she felt him relax enough to fall asleep. She would not betray him after all it wasn't in her nature to kill a person who had helped her out.
__________________________________________________
She wasn't sure how long it was before she gently brushed his arm. "Aaron i think its about time we moved. The forest is gonna be waking up soon." her voice was soft but there was a certain urgency to it. She already had the fire out and she had laid his head on the ground as she had gone to clean camp up a bit. The morning would soon come to Terra it looked like. Though she was never too sure how long night andmorning lasted her. She did not that it had been hours since she had signed on. And she really needed to likely do something at home. Thank goodness for days off that was all she was thinking. Time to turn in that lovely little quest.

@Aaron Steele

 

As the duo finished off the giant plant, gathered all they needed for their quest and he passed out to rest; healing quicker he'd find himself dreaming about the events. There was a boy, one he'd never seen, Isolt, Alonso and Sera all players he knew one way or another. Then there was the darkness, an assortment of shadows; beings he couldn't see despite the amount of light. The earth itself seemed to divide between them as he heard a voice. Off at the distance, a being of light appeared before him speaking. You've done well my child, protecting other and holding your own. Fighting for Justice and restraining you barbaric nature. I await to see what kind of soldier you become, but the path of light is your friend. The voice said befoe fading as each of his friends fell into light or darkness yet he remained to be equally engulfed by both. Moments later he'd wake.

His head on the ground he'd rub his eyes noting her words agreeing. Raising to his feet he'd help her pack up camp as the duo talked briefly, "So what is it exactly that you want from this game. Like what do you see yourself gaining from playing it. I was hoping to protect my sister but now It appears I protect everyone but her. Although maybe that's my purpose here. To become the hero the people deserve, not the one they want." He'd say chuckling having paraphrased one of his favorite films. "Jokes aside I am totally into the idea of becoming a guardian of sorts; I have the set skills apparently to be called a shielder. But I'm not quite sure as to what degree I have earned this new title." he'd shift his gaze to her, "Have you earned any titles or achievements?"

Lips curling some as he finished up cleaning the camp, he'd make his way towards a tree. "So we've completed my quest. I think we also completed your quest. Well, all except some water from that spring. It' not far from here if you want to go get it real quick. Follow me." he'd say as he leads them once more up the river now and towards the forest; entering he'd take her through a path he made himself earlier in hopes to avoid any unnecessary combat. But as such, plans rarely went as expected and he'd run into a few goblins. Nodding he'd rush in bash the first slash the second and kick the third. Trying to maintain aggro and assault the three giving her chances to strike and slay them. One by one each would fall. Either by his hands or hers; the strikes made vital as their data exploded. His eyes shifted as he thought about the ordeal, he'd want to be a hero but was technically ending lives.

The concept was a bit hypocritical. Although he could understand that it was the slaying of beasts for the greater good. None the less he'd part his lips as he looked to her, "Almost there, let's just try to get there in one piece. That's the spring over there. Go gather some water and I'll watch your back." he'd say as the duo made it to the spring; so they could complete their quests. A faint smile passing the male would take her hand upon completion and lead her towards another path; one which seemed to lead both further in the forest It wouldn't be long before the duo appeared near a cliff, just on the outside of the forest. His eyes turned to hers he'd lead her closer to the edge, "Do you trust me?" he'd ask with a smile before hearing her words; regardless he'd pull her with him jumping off.

What felt like an adrenaline rush; either due to fear of the end results or killing themselves he'd laugh some as the sight below came within visibility; the water which would splash as the two sunk to the bottom. Arriving back at the surface he chuckles as the two floated a bit and he pointed off at the distance, "It takes us to a nearby town; one we can easily walk south to reach the place we got these missions. So, for now, we simply ride the lazy river to the city." he'd say letting go of her hand placing it behind his head as they floated down the river making their way towards the city. Once having arrived however he'd exit and dry off some walking its streets with her.

"So tell me, why did you choose your skills again. I must admit your not a bad fighter but you aren't a fighting oriented character. What was your plan, to open a shop or something?" he'd ask as to try and make small banter as they soon made it into the heart of the city. A faint smile passing as he found a stall of sorts advertising the concept of guilds. Turning to her he'd smile warmly, "We should probably consider opening one of these. I'd need a crafter if not an entertainment advisor. Give it some serious thought." he'd say some smiling.

[OOC: Feel free to post up responses and wrap up us turning in the mission to close the thread.]

 

Isolt had no idea what Aaron was dreaming about and if he ever told her what it was that he was dreaming about she would probably not understand until it was explained. At least not really but that was besides the point right now. She was keeping watch over campsite and him. She was doing all the things a friend would do. Plus she didn't mind having someone to party with either. Granted the first time they had met she'd been really overwhelmed and they had signed out after a little bit for grinding and she still wasn't probably as good as he was yet. She was fine with that though so she just let it go. When he woke he helped her clean up camp too which was really nice of him and not expected in the least.

"That sounds really deep but I'm here just to play and see what i can make of this place. But i also want to help people. Hence why I choose alchemy as a mastery. I also wanted to practice my cooking inside of a game. I always thought that would be really cool. Its why I only have one combat type mastery. I want to relax and have fun but still be able to hold my own if i need too to get the ingredients i need too. Sure i'm not going to at first be really good at anything. And i might choose something else for another mastery. But I'd rather be behind the scenes. I'm usually support for my brothers but usually in the way that i can be fast like i am with the a dagger and or doing something that pertains to magic. I decided to be different this time." She really wanted to do a few things on her own. And in her mind being able to cook and help people with other health needs kinda made it all the more fun to play. She wanted to be known as one of the best cooks in the land and a damn good alchemist as well. She wanted to keep the fighters healthy both in potions and in food. Maybe she'd do some sort of perform mastery next.

"I only just started playing a little bit ago so I haven't gained any titles or achievements just yet. Hopefully I'll be coming on to one soon." She smiled at him and then they headed off to get the spring water that she needed and she'd get a little more for him as well. It might come in handy. But there was much fighting on the way there and she wondered exactly how dangerous this place would have been. Once she finally had what she needed. She was still in the wanter when he asked if she trusted him. She was drug into the water and though she trusted he wouldn't get them killed she allowed it to happen even though she was a little flustered and her ears twitched. She floated along with him down the river not really saying much but it was nice and cool and kept them from anything on the banks. She wasn't sure waht was in the river but once they got to where they needed too and got out she was relieved that they hadn't run into something that would try to drown them.

"Yea I play to open up a shop or work in a shop with some of the other crafters." She noted a notice for guilds and then Aaron mentioned starting one. "That would be really cool. I could totally do that. I wouldn't have a problem there. I mean i know how to organize who does that at home so that my brother's don't miss out on things." She giggled a little bit but she could totally do that. Still having others at higher level would be good too. "Let's do it. let's find other people to join." She said a little too excited she was sure but it sounded like an awesome idea.

They came around to the first place to turn things in and the second. She smiled at him collecting her part of it. "When we have more people let me know. You can message me i should get it right when i sign on. And i'm on as often as possible." She looked at the time. "I've gotta sign out. I'll see yea soon." And with that she signed out for the time being dreams of cooking for a large group of people filling her head and making her a little giddy to say the least.
