Reytac

Of all he things that Reytac had expected when he’d invited Acanthus and Nari along on this next stage of the Dragon Hunter’s quest, the state the two ladies were in now was far, far down the list. Nari had come across as standoffish and cold pretty consistently – not so much that he thought she didn’t like him, but more that she was someone who worked through logic and didn’t let her emotions run hot. So having her chew her out with what felt like actual concern for his safety was touching, and a bit surprising. He could almost imagine her standing with one hand planted on her hip, and the ot

”Excellent. Yeah, I've got a quest to save a girl from a cave. Shouldn’t be too strenuous, just a bit of cave diving and maybe a little combat.” Reytac smiled a little in relief – it was a good thing that the young man had also been trying to start a quest, it had apparently made him more wiling to work with someone he didn’t know. For a moment Rey waffle on whether he should warn the young man about trusting strangers – but he set that aside, for now. He’d give him the friendly warning later, after they’d finished things up here. Didn’t want to run the risk of scaring the young man off.

Reytac tilted his head to one side, blinking slowly. Things had gone sideways, rapidly, and he wasn’t quite sure where he’d lost the plot on what was happening. It was probably around the time that a new lady, Bliss, came in trying to impersonate a character from a show he’d once watched. Though that character had been riding the boar intentionally, not being carried along out of control. He watched the boar trudge away, more than done with the shenanigans that were going on here, and he shook his head from side to side in disbelief. Then he shook himself and looked at the woman he’d been

Reytac had been attempting to gather something when Nari shouted, and his attention immediately snapped up and towards the wolves that were approaching. He had been glad that he kept near them, since it meant that he didn't have far to travel to help back Nari up as she got her shield and spear ready. He held back, watching as her weapon flickered back and forth, puncturing into the wolves rapidly, stabbing some of them with the blade and leaving an icy tinge that spread from the wound, while others she beat with the back end of the spear, leaving them stunned and staggering in place. On

Reytac strolled back through the Town of Beginnings, listening to the hustle and bustle of the town and the players around him as he walked. Even now, when he had a house settled, he came here to just be around others – this was still the place where the most players hung out, and outside of odd events it was where he absolutely saw the most. He didn’t even think he’d managed to finish all the quests down here – he knew for a fact, now, that there was a dungeon, a heinous dungeon, hidden somewhere on this floor, but he also knew he far and away wasn’t ready for that one. But it was also cathar

Reytac followed the gesture, to where a man was laughing and flirting with several women. He hummed under his breath as he watched the group for a long minute, then shrugged slightly. At least they were better than the person he saw over to one side who seemed to be scrambling to grab something off of the floor, though the crush of dancers masked what was happening over there before he could really see what was going on. He set his glass down on the bar with a clink and idly started tracing the rim with a finger as his gaze roamed across the floor. People were, happy, here. Sure, there m

Reytac was still cursing under his breath, doing his best to wipe away the wine that had been splashed on him when he heard someone walk up beside him and speak to the bartender. At first he didn’t process when the person beside him spoke to him, until a slight nudge made him turn his head towards the woman that was beside him with a smile on her face beneath her mask. And the mention of never being too old for candy – he let out a small laugh as he took the offered napkin, and got it a little damp with condensation from a glass on the bar to help it soak more of the wine out of his coat.

Reytac ducked under one of the outstretched ‘stalks’ of one of the mushrooms, and looked over his shoulder to the silver-plated woman who was walking behind him. ”And you're sure we can just, find these dungeons on nearly any floor?” He got an affirmative, and gave a shrug. Acanthus had convinced him that delving into a dungeon or two would be one of the next steps that he should take in trying to prepare for the front lines – apparently there was equipment, consumable items, that were nearly exclusive to the dungeons scattered throughout the floors. They were currently traipsing through the t

Reytac’s head reeled a bit. Talking with Acanthus was something he’d gotten used to – he still looked up to the front liners, and was trying to get there himself, so Acanthus and Nari were bad enough, and both of them were retired or semi-retired. But to have two more come up to him and apparently be working towards the same quest that he was here to hunt down completely blew his mind. And on top of that – his interaction with Wulfrin in the man’s store had been brief, so he was not prepared for the excited, energetic nature as the man rushed up to them, tossing them a team invite as he appro

“I know full well what will happen, if I focus only on getting to the front line and out. I’m not ready for it yet. If I went there now, I’d die within days, weeks at best.” Reytac snarled in frustration. He wasn’t going to let this, this, mockery, of himself accuse him of being a coward. He was working, fighting, trying to grow and get to a point where he actually could stand on the front lines and not be a burden. He lashed out, his hammer swinging through the air, trying to push the clone back and away. Instead, the clone deflected his swing, sending his arm shooting into the gr

“No. No that’s not what happened. I’m not – I couldn’t handle it! I – this was supposed to be a fucking game to enjoy with my wife not – not this!” The clone stepped back slowly as Reytac shouted back at it, its lips twisting downwards. The clone lifted up one hand, the empty hand, and jabbed its index finger against his chest. “And now, look at you. Traipsing along, looking at dragons like some giddy school child, instead of getting your ass to the front lines and maybe making a difference. It’s almost like you don’t actually” “If you finish that I will do my level bes

Reytac scrambled back to his feet, putting a little distance between himself and his copy, but the clone kept close. Not close enough for another attack, but close enough that Reytac knew that if he tried to run, the clone would be right there, not letting up. His hands were clammy as he tried to fumble his own hammer out from his inventory, nearly dropping it to the ground. “And then, what did you do when you realized you were stuck? You just hid like a fucking coward instead of doing something about it!” Reytac choked, guilt rising in his throat as he managed to get his hammer int

Cautiously, Reytac took a step forward, one hand raising towards the figure. “Hey, look, if there’s something you need to do instead of this duel, I’m fine –” Reytac cut himself short when the figure spun around, the robe that had been clinging to it all through the woods falling away. Leaving Reytac staring at a mirror image of himself, from the scar and stubble on his jaw, down to the hammer that appeared out of nowhere. Reytac stumbled over backwards, falling to the ground as he dodged out of the way of the sudden attack, his eyes going wide as he stared at himself in shock. “Wh-
