[PP-F1] Noontide Greetings (Itzal)

[Evander 0]

Evander flumped down onto the grass as well. It was good to know that Itzal and his guild were making headway on their goals. He really did hope they succeeded. Aincrad needed a guild like that to be successful, especially now. As they went up the floors, the number of players would decrease, with irreversible deaths. It was very important to teach people to be able to protect themselves now, while they were still relatively low on Aincrad, so that there would be more survivors to help later. And, of course, more survivors in general. Evander listened to Itzal. Huh, so Itzal had always been more of a scouting type, from since he started out. And this hill of verbena flowers was the first verbena patch he had found in the game. It was interesting how some could tell what kind of flowers were what. Evander himself had never really been, er, informed about flowers. He just knew the basic ones, like what a rose was or something. He wondered what significance verbena flowers had to Itz- oh. His sister had loved them.

Evander took note of the use of past-tense. Was his sister... dead? Oh boy. That was a fairly depressing thought, though it could have been a mistake, he supposed. Probably not. Many had lost their lives in Aincrad. So, that was Itzal's main motivation for working towards escape, along with generally getting everyone out. Evander reflected on his own motivations. Huh, now that he thought about it, he realized he had never really thought about why he was even doing this. Sure, he had the general 'get everyone out' thing too, but no real personal motivation. His brow furrowed. Why? Well, he could think about that later, he supposed. "Yeah, sure, man, of course! Fighting monsters with you was pretty fun, and I never would have known about this hill, if you hadn't told me about it. We should do this again some time." Evander put his hand on his chin. There was only one issue. How would they even contact each other? Oh, right, friend requests were a thing. Evander opened up his menu and sent Itzal a friend request. "I just sent you a friend request, so that we can message each other and meet up whenever. It'd be pretty hard to meet up again by just chance or something."
