[SP-F3] <<Worn Out Welcome>> Elf Hunt - Complete!


Recommended Posts

Teion made her way to the third floor's main city, shivering from the tingling sensation the teleport gate always seemed to leave her with. She shook her head lightly to try and get rid of the feeling, looking around and pulling up her map to get her bearings. She located the shop of the NPC Armorsmith Griswold, where she had heard of an easy enough quest she figured she could handle on her own. With an idle smile, Teion set off in the direction of the shop, weaving her way through other players and NPCs going on with their lives around her.

Upon reaching the armorsmith's humble shop, Teion pushed the door open and was greeted with a bell's light jingle. She poked her head in before fully entering, spotting a man and woman NPC after a moment. The two of them looked to her and the man, whom she presumed was named Griswold, waved her inside. "Come in, adventurer!" He beckoned, and she obliged, letting the door shut softly behind her. She walked up to the couple, and the man began speaking again. "I bet you've come here to have me make you a piece of armor, hmm?" He asked, leaning forward in his chair as his wife made her way around the shop performing minuscule tasks here and there.

Teion nodded lightly in reply. When the man didn't seem to register the motion as a response, she lightly spoke up. "Err, yes." She said lamely, and as if on queue, the man continued, "Well, I need more details than that! Go on, tell me the kind of armor you would like." Teion frowned, but took a moment to think before speaking. "A light armor, please. If you can make leather greaves for me, that would be great." She smiled at the thought, suddenly eager to replace the heavy armor she'd been wearing.

The man took down some details on a piece of paper before handing it over to the other woman in the shop. "Hanna, could you make a design for this?" He asked. The woman took the paper and looked it over before glancing up at Teion with a warm smile. "Certainly. This will look lovely on you!" Hanna nodded lightly.

"Now, about the payment." Griswold spoke up again. "I won't ask 'ya for any Col." He said simply, bringing a hand to his chin. "I do this for my love of the craft. What I do need, though," he continued, "are the materials."

Teion cocked her head to the side as the man looked to the side nervously. "Y'see... In order to get good materials, you need to go hunting outside of the city. For a good pair of leather greaves I could use some wild boar hide." He played with his calloused hands nervously as he continued, "Problem is, there's this dark elf that's been causing a fuss in the hunting grounds lately..."

At this point, Hanna stepped in and placed a hand on Griswold's shoulder. "We're not adventurers." She said with a sad tone. "We buy our materials from hunters in the city. But lately an elf has been driving all the adventurers away." Teion nodded, already understanding the quest's objective.

A display popped up in front of her, and Teion tapped on the blue circle to accept the quest. She smiled as the couple thanked her, and with a small bow she left the shop. Teion made her way towards the edge of town, preparing to leave the city. As she reached the gate, she drew her axe and gave a quick scan of the area.

Making her way through the trees, the crackling of leaves was loud under her boots. She didn't see anything of interest, not even any mobs nearby. She supposed she had to find this dark elf in order to get the boars she needed to spawn. She pulled open her map and took a quick look at the area she had already discovered.

After taking a minute to get her bearings and reading the system map of the area, Teion closed her menu and continued to press forward. She spotted a bush with some familiar-looking herbs growing and stopped a moment to pick a section out and add it to her inventory. With a satisfied smile, she mentally crossed her fingers. 'Here's hoping a can find a bunch of materials out here! '

Shifting through the brush, Teion continued through the oddly quiet forest. She figured she would have at least seen some wildlife running around as she made plenty of noise from the leaves and plants under her feet. 'Must be due to the quest...' She thought absently, starting to go on auto-pilot. She looked around, wondering if the Dark Elf she was looking for would be stealthed.

When she heard a large crack under her boot, Teion jumped slightly and her attention snapped back to her search. Her grip around her axe tightened and she gave another nervous look around her. Slowing to a stop, she readied her weapon as she heard the sound of growls nearby. As suddenly as they had appeared, a pack of wolves revealed themselves to strike. She let out a cry of surprise, but reacted quickly enough to bring her blade around and releasing a sword art. Cutting through the monsters, she managed to drop their health bars to zero before they damaged her.

Letting out a large breath, Teion felt her heart beating faster. She pressed a button to acknowledge the materials she received for the kills, smiling lightly. Taking a moment to regain her energy, Teion looked around herself before moving again. She didn't see any signs of another humanoid in the area, but took slow steps, trying to walk more quietly.

As she slowly made her way forward, Teion stopped as a figure approached her, tensing up as she realized the woman before her was the target of her quest. A tall elf with dark grayish skin and long silver hair stood before her, staring the woman down with a scowl. "Leave this forest, human." She said simply. The elf rested a hand on the hilt of a longsword at her hip, gripping the handle threateningly.

Teion cleared her throat before speaking, trying to calm get nerves. Despite her high level, the elf's eyes pierced through her. She took a defiant stance as she spoke, "The villagers aren't able to hunt since you've scared them away!"

"Those pigs tread too far into lands they do not belong!" The elf spat back, gripping the handle of her sword. "If you wish my presence gone, you must fight it out of me, adventurer." The name was covered in venom as she spoke.

Teion flinched as the elf spoke, watching intently as she drew her sword. Realizing the combat would be unavoidable, Teion took in a sharp breath through her nose, pulling her axe from behind her. Taking a moment to steady herself, she spotted the elf initiate combat. Reacting promptly, Teion took her weapon in both hands as the blade of her axe shone a bright blue. With three quick strikes the two clashed--Teion's blade had stuck true, dealing a critical hit and dropping her opponent's HP bar rapidly.

Teion sheathed her axe behind her as the combat ended in what felt like the blink of an eye. When the elf's HP dropped to zero she shattered into a mass of pixels and light. Teion was a but surprised by the strength of her attack, but also glad the fight didn't go on for too long. Taking a look around her, she noticed some changes had taken place in the forest. Most notably, the wildlife in the area came back, or at least now made themselves more visible.

Teion turned hesitantly, starting to head back the direction she came from. She noticed neutral mobs making themselves visible, which felt more normal than the barren forest she had passed through on the way here. Looking around, she spotted a familiar bush containing a lootable plant, stopping to pick at it until she received a berry as a crafting ingredient. She smiled, happy for the find, and continued her trek back through the woods. Perhaps if her luck kept up she would have to linger out here a bit longer.

A couple of times she thought she had found more materials, but she was disappointed as she turned up with nothing. Frowning, she noticed she was getting closer to town. Looking around her, she tried to see if she could spot anything interesting nearby--something to give her a reason to stay out a bit longer rather than going back to town and turning the quest in. She knew the quest was low level compared to her current strength, but it was over so quickly she wanted to make the adventure last a bit longer.

Teion stopped in front of a massive oak tree. She frowned, glancing around before sheathing her axe behind her. Surveying the structure, she took another step closer and grabbed onto a low branch, using a foothold as the base of the trunk to push off and boost herself up. Slowly but surely, she made her way upwards, inching from branch to branch. At one point her hand slipped and her heartbeat quickened as she clung back on, holding herself close to the bark. Stopped in her climb, Teion glanced to the ground that had grown farther away and took a deep breath.

After several minutes of slow climbing, Teion reached a thick, sturdy branch and hoisted herself up, sitting down on it as she continued to hold herself close to the tree's center. She was nervous, but happy she had made it so high up. Breathing in deeply through her nose, she finally looked out past the foliage to get a fantastic view of the forest. She was higher than most trees, gazing out over the landscape and creatures down below. A soft smile settled upon her face and she truly relaxed for a moment, keeping her balance and loosening her firm grip on the tree.

A soft breeze brushed against her cheeks, causing her hair to shift slightly around her face. Teion closed her eyes and took in another deep breath. As she finished appreciating the raw beauty of Aincrad, she looked down below her and decided she would need to be getting back to town soon. Her smile became a bit sad, but she lifted herself up and tried to find solid footing for the trip back down. She tried to take it slow, spotting a single fruit among the branches. She reached out to grab it, storing it safely in her inventory before she continued the climb back down.
