[SP-F1] Fixer Upper (RGQ)

When the notice had popped up Ignavus thought it had been a joke, the quest seemed a little too easy. However when he picked up the flyer a quest marker had appeared, so he followed up on it. The little house had filthy windows, knee high grass filled with various weeds, apparently all he had to do was mow the lawn and clean up the windows. Walking into the yard he noticed there was nothing to cut the grass with. Ignavus rolled his eyes of course he had to use his sword, used weapons for everything in this game. Unsheathing  the sword Ignavus rolled his shoulder before taking a swing through the grass, The sharpened two-handed blade sliced through the grass with surprising ease, not that Ignavus really expected much resistance from a bunch of grass. The grass shimmered a moment the upper parts of the stalks moving as if they were about to fall, suddenlly it shattered into many little bits of light leaving a bare patch of neatly trimmed grass in the path the blade cut through. As he looked down Ignavus noticed a few small flowers still sticking up above the grass Ignavus poked it with his sword and it cleaved the flower neatly before it too shattered and dissipated.

Ignavus stepped forward as he swung his blade again in a large sweeping arc, the grass sliced, fell,  flashed and dissipated again. Leaving another arc of grass cleared, except for more of the little flowers. Ignavus tried to quickly take two more swipes but the blade felt heavy on the second swing and than he noticed his energy was empty. Ignavus stood there for a moment letting the energy regenerate, it was strange feeling the need to breathe heavy when he wasn't feeling exerted, When his energy was replenished Ignavus stepped forward swinging again. As his foot knocked into the little flowers growing above the grass, they dissapated as their durability dropped. It startled Ignavus and his blade only nicked a few blades of grass as he was thrown off by the flashing at his feet.

 

"What the hell are these", Ignavus grumbled as he poked the flower with his finger like an item he was trying to pick up.

As Ignavus poked the flower an cursour popped up with the name "Damaged Dandelions", the menu only had one option on it, to throw away the item. Ignavus clicked the trash button and the flowers disappeared from the patch of grass he was standing on. The flowers were all gone from the patches of cut grass. Ignavus looked around to see if there anymore around him but they were all gone. Ignavus wondered if maybe those were the items he could pick up here, but it hadn't given him an option to accept it so he was confused shook his head. Taking another large swing Ignavus cleared another patch of grass, this time the patch was entirely clear of anything. Ignavus waited a moment and slashed again, clearing yet another patch, there wasn't much left on this side of the yard, he would have to stop taking large swipes soon or risk damaging the property. Looking down Ignavus noticed a patch of clovers in the grassy patch he had just cut, this time he crouched down and poked the patch of clover first.

A system message popped up saying clover, Ignavus quirked his eyebrow and clicked the accept button as the item dissipated into his inventory and his material count went up by one. Ignavus's eyes widened as he realized that the quest wasn't just to clear out the garbage but that he could probably get his hands on some very useful materials for crafting. The profession system was something Ignavus had heard a bit about but he couldn't settle on what to do, Alchemy seemed like it could have some serious long time usefulness but being able to craft his own weapons or armor seemed pretty useful too. Materials were materials though and Ignavus figured he could gather the materials now and figure out what to use them later. Trotting over to another patch of wildly growing grass, Ignavus looked at it and realized that his sword was too large to get a swing to cut the grass would require too much room and the blade would just clash harmlessly with the wall and Ignavus didn't want to risk damaging his only defense. Instead grabbing a large tuft of grass Ignavus tugged with all his might, for a moment the grass resisted before shattering and dissipating like all the earlier grass. Ignavus looked down to see if there was another potential material waiting for him.

There was a distinct feeling of disappointment as Ignavus noticed the small patch of grass was clear of anything for him to pick up. Doing it like this the patches were so much smaller so the odds of their being materials appearing in such a small sample area was low. It also dawned on Ignavus that stopping and picking up the materials after every time he pulled out a tuft meant that it would take ages to finish clearing the yard. It would be faster to just pull out all the grass and then pick up the materials later, Ignavus would just have to watch his feet and make sure he didn't accidentally destroy any materials. Rapidly Ignavus began tugging out as many handfuls of grass, as he could, it didn't take long for him to get bored with the monotony of the repeated actions. "If I get some crappy gardening profession out of this I'm gonna be pissed", Ignavus couldn't help but grumble under his breath as he continued to work away in the small yard.
