The World

Zalera: Okay, then. See you, I guess.

*Zalera disbands the party & Gates Out.*
==============================
*There's four corners in a room, but whatever. 2 skeletons that give an Antidote & a Restorative, respectively, & a chest containing The Devil.*
==============================
Euryale: It's about the same where I live, too.

Thiera: I've got a storm.

*They go through a few of the small rooms, & take the turn.*

Noct gives a little fist pump, then continues through the door.

--

"That sucks," Mortal said, "Hope it doesn't mess with your internet."

Hector logged out, feeling satisfied with his day's game so far.

*Once in Mac Anu, Zalera just logs out, since that auto-saves your game.*
===========================================
Thiera: It shouldn't be a problem.

*They are now working their way up the B2-B3 staircase.*

~Everyone is now level 10 because it is a nice, round number~
===========================================
*This is an L-shaped corridor. As the Magic Portal begins to open, Noctis notices a chest at the right side of her feet.*

"Oh good."

--

Noct decides to kill the monster then get the loot. So she waits for the monster to spawn.

Monudon:<Yes!>

*Monudon looks around to see if there's anything else of interest before he heads back to town*

Seraph walks up to the chaos gate with Hokuto presumably in tow. "You should do the honors."

OOC: Incoming 9:30 AM Why-The-Fuck-Am-I-Still-Up-Let's-Spew-Something-Out Post.

*This time, it's just a Cyclo Shark.*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*Not in the immediate area.*
=================================
*They are now up on B1, going through the last room before the stairs down to B2.*
=================================
Euryale: You know, maybe I SHOULD carry around a few Sprite Ocarina. Usually, you're just walking through rooms with nothing in them, so I think they're kind of a waste. But I can see where they'd be convenient, if you're in a hurry.
=================================
*At the Gate, Hokuto can be heard mashing buttons, & they are transported to a green field with windmills spaced all over it.*

Hokuto: Doesn't look very holy. Or hidden or forbidden, for that matter.

"Are you in a hurry?" Mortal asked.

--

Noct does the quadruple slash thing again.

*Monudon gates out back to town*

*This depletes almost half of the shark's HP, so it begins charging its own spell.*
======================================
*Back at town, a Long Arm woman with blue hair is speaking with the NPC at the Recorder.*
======================================
Euryale: It is getting kind of late, but not really. I was actually thinking of sticking around for another hour or so after I got back to town & saved. Maybe going to check out the Church Ghosts rumor again.

*At this point, they are rounding a corner in the chambers.*

Noct does the quadruple slash with the flurry of kicks at the end move again.

--

"Church Ghost?" Mortal asked, interested.

*Monudon waves hello*

*The Long-Arm pointedly glares at him & logs out.*
======================================
Euryale: There's a certain area, that supposedly you see odd ghosts in from time to time. Usually little girls, but also other things. They last for a while, & then vanish. Or so the rumor goes.
=======================================
*Noctis is hit with a bunch of ice cubes. By this point, she's starting to run low on SP, but the Cyclo Shark is near death.*

"Ooooooh, creepy~!" Mortal said, "I wanna check it out too."

--

Noct tries to conserve SP by attacking with a regular slash, figuring it would be enough to off the shark.

Monudon:[Rude.]

*Assuming he's in Dun Loireag, Monudon heads down to the grunty farm*

*Monudon better hope he remembers the Grunty's stats, 'cause I sure as Hell don't. While running, he sees a Heavy Axeman with bulky green armor at the Elf's Haven & a Heavy Blade with a black cape & a long, black katana.*
=========================================
Euryale: You're welcome to come along. But I should warn you, it only happens at random, & every other time I've been there, I haven't seen anything.
=========================================
*It was. In this dungeon, Noctis has gained 2 levels so far.*

*Monudonn nods hello to the Axeman and Heavy blade as he heads down to the farm*

Current Grunty Stats:

Noct does a little fist pump, and waits a bit for her SP to recover.

--

Mortal shrugged, "Nothing else to do really, and it sounds fun. It is like a ghost story within a game."

"Within a top."

"What?"

"Nothing..."

"Yeah. I dunno. Maybe there was an error in the chaos gate?" Seraph asks Hokuto after they're transported.

*Closer to the farm is a blond Wavemaster girl with her hair bunched up in the back, wearing a pink hat, shirt, & boots, & a white shawl & skirt.*
========================================
*Waiting.*
========================================
Euryale: Okay, then. I'll wait for you in Mac Anu.

*They arrive out in the open air of the field. Euryale selects the Gate Out command & she & Thiera disappear in their respective golden rings.*
========================================
Hokuto: Is this dumb game always not working?

Still waiting for SP to go up. IRL Noct continues to clean her room before returning to check on the status of her SP.

--

Mortab follows along with the gate out.

*Monudon also nods hello to her as he continues*

"No. Usually there isn't an issue this major."

*It is about 55-60% regenerated.*
==================================
*The Wavemaster doesn't know what that's supposed to mean, so she just stands there.*
==================================
*Euryale & Thiera are at the Recorder.*

Euryale: There are no monsters there, but just in case of, like, a power outage, or something.
==================================
*Hokuto runs off for a Magic Portal. When it opens & spews out a goblin, she smacks it upside the head. It stabs at her, but she blocks it & hits it 2 more times. It collapses before vanishing.*

Hokuto: Yaaaaaay! I am Hokuto the Invincible!
