Scarlet Firefly

After a short break from her new friend Warren, they would soon to reconvene on floor eight were their first target in the quest chain. Hopefully her new attire wasn't too jarring. She had decided to change her skills around in hopes that she would never feel the pain of being impaled again. This was a good time for her to take in the sights of Floor Eight, though. It was in her nature to just explore while she waited for her company to arrive, so she walked around the teleportation platform and spoke with some of the local NPCs while browsing some of their shops. Another dense jungle sim

"Combat is absolutely necessary. It doesn't really mean I enjoy participating in it most of the time. I can never shake the feeling that death could be a simple as one attack away... I have to tell my mother about the beauties this virtual world has offered me. Even if I can't see her smile... I can imagine it now." Firefly was aware of how immediately she'd made the conversation heavy so she would decide to try and leave it there unless Pollux pressed her again. The two watched the gray house cat cause havoc to the scenery just around the guild hall. Hopefully no one was trying to upkeep

Item Name: Academy Seifuku Item ID: 251898 Item Type: Clothing Item Tier: 3 Item Enhancements: EVA III Item Quality: Perfect Item Description: An unnamed academy uniform for the winter season that is perfect in palette with Firefly's style. It's something of a cosplay but makes it surprisingly easier to dodge attacks than one might think.

The trip back to Richard's shop was less than a few minutes. Never in her life did she think she would be such a good navigator but the map system in the game made it so easy to chart a quick path back to town. Upon her return, Richard would greet her again. "You find what we need to get started? Perfect! Come over here to the table and show me how well you weave!" And weave she did. The results were far beyond anything an amateur would produce to the point that she just assumed that it had to have been insane luck on her part. Perhaps it was even just Richard's guidance. "Well, just

In her efforts to dodge the incoming attacks, however, Firefly found herself aggroing another group of mobs. They joined the fight ready to send Firefly to the grave for the mere inconvenience she gave them that was getting in their path. Surrounded now, both hands gripped the cross blade. Her feet left the ground for a moment as she spun the heavy blade around her. Like a tornado of emerald death, the blade turned her foes into nothing more than soon-to-be recycled data. The only thing left was the petals of grass that were caught up in the fierceness of her spin. Her amazement of the po

With weapon in hand, Firefly headed to the unsafe areas of the lower floor to find some fodder that was high enough level for her to loot. Thankfully she was well aware of level capped areas on the starting floor that even someone so many levels higher were capable of fighting at an equal footing. A group of hornets from this spot was exactly what she was looking for. Once she found a decent bunch of them gathered together, Firefly jumped in immediately and surprised them with a wide swing. She was never really good at hitting multiple targets though. Some quests relied on attacking thing

On floor one, probably her most explored floor at this point, yet still she missed so much, Firefly was indulging on a hobby that she was not really capable of doing in the real world: Sewing. Her mother always told her about how she enjoyed sewing but never had the time to invest in it. Perhaps having a blind daughter was part of the reason but she wasn't going to put all that blame on herself. Her mother surely wouldn't. The quest location was in a shop among the outer layers of the Town of Beginnings in a shop owned by a man named Richard Textillion. The man that greeted her was not th

The pat atop her head got a relieved sigh from Firefly. Clearly she was over thinking all this. "Alright. You let me know if anything I do bothers you though. I'm not about to lose friends I just made." She said getting back to trying everything Oscar had made. It was all amazing, the moment she got the chance to tell Oscar how great his cooking was she would have to let him know. Soon, the two would be joined by another pair. Once she recognized - Bistro - and the other she had maybe seen before but couldn't place her face with a name. Yue Hua clearly knew her from the dueling scene thou

The quest ticker updated to show that they only needed one more success to finish and the skill would be unlocked. Yue Hua would notice that as well. Meanwhile Samantha struggled to find the treats she’s bought when she befriended Myst. Soon though, she would find it and offer it to the grey cat. Not even Pollux’s affection could beat the allure of a treat. Firefly allowed the cat to snatch it up and give her some time to enjoy it. Yue Hua did her best to make sure Firefly didn’t care much about the outcome, and did her best to explain that it would be as even as possible. “Hmm… I’m not w

“I’m going to eat everything,” said the girl next to her. The pile of food in front of them rose Firefly's tone. "Everything?" Was she really going to eat all of that food? Sure Firefly's plate was stacked just as high but she couldn't imagine eating everything off this plate. The idea of her stack was to try everything at least once. "I don't think I have it in me to eat that much." The hot chili was the first thing that Yue Hua went for, which got her thinking of what she should dive into first. Before she could decide though, her friend offered her to try what she was having. Spic

Warren would express his desire to go without a fight and Firefly could agree with that 100%. Her nods would mirror his sentiment. "Agreed. Fighting it so stressful. I prefer the wonderful sights the game has to offer as opposed to the stats and swords or whatever." Though she understood why people might enjoy a fantasy world where they can feel like a powerful force that just wasn't the appeal of the game for her. It was nothing more than a stepping stone to go wherever she wanted. Samantha proved to be either an amazing translator, or a complete cheater. Thankfully in this case she was

Firefly still wasn’t the best with combat compared to peers of her level. The total whiff was to be expected from her which is why she waited for Acanthus before making her attack. Her partner got the large cat’s attention. It probably didn’t help for her image to this (mostly a) stranger for her to equip a blindfold only to miss but she knew she could fight with it on. Proof would be on her side with next one though. She could feel it. The cooldown on her sword art became free just as Acanthus suggested what she should do. “Right side flank. On it.” Confidence came to her much more easil
