Rosa:
It wasn't as if he was deaf. There was no need for her to be yelling since every time his hammer rose out of the anvil, he could hear words clearly. His hammer was set down and the man turned around. There was sweat on his forehead, glistening from the heat of the outdoor forge ans he moved to go grab a clean towel on the table and walk over to the girl. "Did you need something miss?"

Shadly:The direction that Shadly headed across the grassy fields allowed her to see at least a few more parts of the city and the wall that towered around the edge of the city. There seemed to be something looming past the wall but there wasn't really anything pertinent to it. It just cast a shadow on that small area right beneath the divider of town. The fields of green blew softly in the wind and the warm spring breeze easily could make your hair fly into a flurry around your face. The grass underneath Shadly's feet would be soft seeing as how there was no dirt path to walk on in this direction. From the perch up on the hill, it was possible to see what looked to be some type of horse grazing in a pasture below, just at the edge of the buildings and a large homestead sitting in the middle of the area. Perhaps you could rent out horses here to travel the lands more quickly. Farther past that, you saw home after home lined up in closely packed homes. This was clearly a residential area unlike the rest of town that was busy with commerce. Of course, there would still be homes within that part of town, this area just seemed more congregated with people's living homes than shops. There were children playing ball in the streets happily as well and it was a welcoming.

Vynessa:
The woman blinked swiftly before letting her eyes light up just for a moment. "Oh, you would do that?" Of course, the moment Diana said it, she was flustering about like a mother hen, trying to take it back. "No, you shouldn't fret yourself with it, dear. We've spent ages trying to find that time capsule and never been able to do it." She frowned a little before trying to explain. "My husband and I buried a time capsule in the fields up town when we were first married. It contained something really precious to us. There used to be trees all throughout the field but one day, someone went and chopped them down. The way things go, they just disappeared and we were left wondering where it is. I'm not sure how to find it now."

Miriam:
Miriam's Fortitude vs Wind Caller #1's Attack 5 vs 3 The parry is successful!
The monster that had been hit with the cheese had charged forward angrily, letting out a almost roar at her. However, Miriam managed to angle her sword just correctly to the side to be able to have the monster into it the flat portion of it, halting it's progress. With one quick move, the parry was pushed out, moving the monster back away from Miriam.
All the while this was happening, the other monster was running forward to, moving in to attack from behind. Perhaps there might have been a way to protect her back, but as Miriam didn't see it, there was a clear target for the Wind Caller #2 to bite at.
Miriam's Foritude vs Wind Caller's Attack + Agility + Combat Advantage 5 vs 9 The attack hits, dealing four damage to the young girl.
It is now Miriam's turn.

Shadly looked around at the beautiful scenery. It almost helped relieve the tension that had been building inside her since day one. Nature had always been where she felt at home. She scanned her surroundings carefully before her eyes landed on the horses. Her inner child got excited immediately because she had always loved animals and horses were one of her favorites. She decided to head over and chat up the owners of the place.

Stopping to catch her breath, Rosa puffed for a second. When she caught her breath she said, "Sorry for shouting.. Uh.. Do you have any type of lubricant or oil that I can use?"

Vynessa listened intently to Diana's tale and nodded along. Grassy field. Time capsule.Used to have trees.They are gone now... Time capsule!? Vynessa's eyes lit up and took to standing to her feet. "Diana, You have to permit me trying to find it for ya." She stated, no waver in her voice, energetically tapping the bar (a firm tap to make enough noise, but not so much one that would leave a mark or cause cutlery to jump) with right hand then making a fist. "You ma'am have caught my interest, and I am afraid that means I will force myself upon you until you accept my aid." She gave a sly grin. "Trying to find something that is lost sounds challenging, and if it is helping someone out, where can I go wrong?"

Iccarus woke up the next morning and walked to the bathroom. He washed the tear stains off his face then grabbed his stuff. He walked out into the bar. He smiled and waved the barkeep goodbye and headed for the door. Iccarus walked out and headed for the fields.

Shadly:
The owner could not be seen outside in the horse fields. Perhaps he was inside the large homestead building. However, there was a young girl out in pasture with the horses, stroking one down and another woman by one of the fences putting out some hay.
Rosa:
The blacksmith squinted at her, trying to get the sun out of his eyes. "Oil, huh? Sure, I have some lubricant, though it's not free." Nothing was free here. You could see the weapons leaning against some of the tables and you could tell that there wasn't going to be anything free here. Plus, he didn't quite look like the kind of man who just gave things away. Not that the smith looked tight fisted but he had this air about him that kind of suggested that he had to work for all he had and he figured you would need to do the same.
Vynessa:
The woman seemed to debate inwardly with herself for a minute before nodding in agreement. "Alright. I suppose if you are dead set on it,you can look for it, but don't be disappointed if you don't find it. We've spent so much time looking for it and never found it." After a moment or two more, the small screen yet again popped up in front of Vynessa.

Shadly didn't see the owners outside, and only saw what appeared to be farmhands outside with the horses. She wasn't sure if she should talk to the girl by the horses or maybe just go inside. Shadly decided to go inside. She looked around, taking in the smell of hay. It brought back some faded memories of her childhood. She smiled to herself a little, before seeking out the owners. "Hello?" she called out, before realizing someone was standing there. "Oh, hello. I'm shadly," she said smiling.

Vyn gave a little chuckle and shook her head ever so slightly. Was it really that odd for someone to be so passionate when it came to finding things? Well, maybe... But in any case, Vynessa was pleased that her wish to help was resolved as the window appeared before her.
Find Diana and Jensen's Time Capsule Reward: 700xp and Unlimited Food and Board as long as you are in town
Wait, how much? Blinking Vyn stared at the window as she hit the circular accept button. Thanking Diana for the beverages and company, Vynessa trundled up a flight of stairs to get to her allocated room. She already knew she wasn't dreaming, but it was to good to be true. If she managed to complete this quest, she would be able to get an Unlimited food source. "I wonder if they have bacon here?" She queried, getting into the covers.
Staring up out of the window, The blonde could see the stars, or at least the programmed stars, and began to think of her brother and how they would stargaze in the forests He telling she about the different constellations. He was coming to visit today. Exhaling, Vynessa's eyes began to well up. Moving her forearm to in front of her face, she hid the tears, despite no one watching, and proceeded to fall asleep.

Rosa squinted. She knew better than to expect it for free, but she had some worries as to what the payment was. "What would you like in return? If I don't have enough gold, I could perhaps help you out with something- say, if you had any errands to run? Though, I must get the lubricant to a nice old man by noon or else I'll miss him." |

Iccarus:
The air at down that morning seemed warmer than it had been the day before. Perhaps it was because the sun had risen. Some might say that the very reason they were feeling down was because the next morning was an ultimate set in stone point in the fact that they would be stuck here but morning was morning and there would be no changing that. The fields that opened up in front of Icarrus were still. No wind was blowing at this time of day and the flowers stood like silent sentinels in their place. No animals were out and about either. It was simply... still.
Shadly
It was an elderly man sitting there once. He looked up when Shadly entered but didn't say anything until he spoke. A pocket watch was still in his hands but he seemed to be looking highly sad about it. However, there was nothing you could do for it, you knew. He didn't bother standing up, however. Instead he just gave drawn out "Hello there, missy" before leaning back again in his chair slowly. "Can I help you with anything?"
Vynessa:
Unlimited food and board while in this town might seem a bit extreme but whatever was in that box, to this couple, was definitely worth it. That saying, it would not be an easy task to complete. If these people hadn't found it in all these years, it would require a great deal of skill in searching to be able to locate it. However, Diana was happy to offer the reward anyway.
[[That's all I can say since you went to bed]]
Rosa:
"It's only ten. You have plenty of time." The
blacksmith said, shaking his head. "It's also gunna be about a hundred
gold for a container of it. That's how much I normally charge to fix
things like this with my oil so I suppose that's how much I can just
sell the oil for." He shrugged. "What da yah need it for anyway?"

Rosa sagged in relief. She handed the man a bag with the required gold in it. "I'm helping a man repair his pocket watch. I know it doesn't seem like a big deal, but.." Rosa shrugged. |

"Hello," shadly smiled. She looked down at the pocket watch that he was holding sadly, and she shook her head. Unfortunently, she knew she probably wouldn't be able to help what ever problems he was having with it. "Well, I had been thinking about renting a horse from this lovely place. I've always loved horses, plus it'll help me travel faster," she smiled. "Although, maybe you could use another hand around here? I only saw two people outside, and I know how much care horses need. Sorry if I sound intrusive, I just really love horses," shadly laughed a little, her hopes high.

((So, is terra the beater instead of Kirito/only one with dual blade. btw, she looks like Mikasa :3))
Vynessa woke up the following morning rubbing her eye sockets. That was the weirdest dream ever. It definitely had potential to be quite exciting. Staring at the wall sat parallel to her, she lazily rubbed sleep from her eyes and paused. No. It wasn't a dream. She definitely was stuck in a virtual reality. Sighing then 'stk'ing', The 23-yr-old hopped of the bed and left the inn; Obviously she greeted Diana first before leaving, but exited swiftly afterwards.
"Now..." She thought, walking east, "Stuck or not," She wiped the air to open the menu and started browsing. "It is still a game, so there must be- ah, there it is." She grinned and wobbled her head a bit in success. Vynessa had been right to assume that even though it was a virtual reality game, you could still pull up your stats page. Her brow furrowed after browsing some more. The strength was rather depressing. Never mind. Surely there was a way to fix that?
Despite it having yet to go mid morning, the streets were still considerably busy. Approximately Ten-thousand players with who knows how many additional standard NPC's could do that to a place. Passing the Bestiary, the southern main road and now on the east side of Town, Vyn had concluded that the best plan was to try and utilize what the town had to offer as much as she could before venturing beyond the walls with a measly 2 in strength.
Passing a bakery, which was overflowing with pastry scent, The blonde woman arrived at what seemed to be training grounds and jogged over to the battle scared male standing rather proudly at his post. "Hey there." She greeted the NPC, equipping her (rather measly) sword to her belt and exiting the window. "Can I train here?" She asked, one eyebrow raised. "I need to practice my swings before I go on a suicidal rampage over the wall."

Iccarus turned around from the fields and ended to the north part of town. He got his sword out of his inventory. "Maybe I should ask an NPC for help before I go on." Iccarus looked around. |

Rosa:
The blacksmith gave a thoughtful look. "Are you sure the pocket watch just needs to be lubricated? Things like that tend to have problems more with the mechanisms themselves than than having gears stick."
Shadly:
The man tapped his chin once before nodding. "I think my daughter outside could use some work done. Plus, she handles most of the business aspects of this. I would go talk to her if I were you." With that said, he leaned back in his chair again and closed his eyes.

Furrowing her brow, Rosa figured if there was something wrong she might as well set herself up for success. "I'm not sure- the man seemed to be pretty sure it just needed to be lubricated, but if there is something more wrong with it would you be able to help- or know someone who could help? I just know I need to get the lubricant to him by noon." Rosa sucked in her breath after this- she seemed to be getting better at talking to people since waking up in this world. It might be because she knew the people weren't real- or were they? Just because they were NPCs didn't mean they didn't have feelings.. Anyway, most of them seemed very friendly so she didn't have much to worry about.
