Loreley 0 Posted November 10, 2016 #1 Share Posted November 10, 2016 (edited) The moon floated high in the night sky as a light breeze blew across the hilly plains of the First Floor. As usual, Loreley was up in the middle of the night, as were the prey she had come to hunt. It had been quite a while since she had really taken to going hunting, and what a cool, crisp night for her to begin anew. She held her dagger up to the moon, as if she believed to be able to take a stab at it. She watched as the moonlight glinted off of the dull blade. A starter weapon, but still a weapon. As basic as it was, it served its purpose. What was tonight's purpose? To murder boars, of course. Not much else one could do on the First Floor. Perhaps she could have tangoed with the wolves instead, but why do that when these innocent piggies gave just as much in the way of rewards? She chuckled, and shrugged, bringing the dagger back to rest by her side, hanging loosely from her fingers. She could feel the weight of the metal, and the hunger in the blade. It had been too long since she had hunted.

Loreley 0 Posted November 10, 2016 Author #2 Share Posted November 10, 2016 (edited) Loreley mentally prepared herself. Every monster could be the last in this death game, even simple boars like this. Many players lost their lives to these creatures, and Loreley had to take care not to share their fate. She decided that the risk was worth the reward though, as she twirled the dagger in her hand and looked around for a suitable target. There were plenty, of course, but when choosing these types of things one just has to feel it. She watched as a boar snuffled his way through a tuft of grass, and decided this unlucky creature would meet its maker this night. Loreley was graceful and swift, her feet barely making sound as she swept through the grass towards her prey. In a flash, she was upon the creature, and before it could even so much as blink in response, Loreley's purple glowing dagger had managed to take two deep stabs into the creature. The creature was shocked, and that fear was exactly what Loreley wanted. It stumbled away, squealing in what had to be agony. Loreley smiled, and readied her dagger once more.

Loreley 0 Posted November 10, 2016 Author #3 Share Posted November 10, 2016 (edited) For a moment, Loreley considered that she may have been too cocky. All too quickly she remembered that this was a death game. That her life was on the line, as the boar's expression instantly turned from fear, to a primal anger. The rage of the beast could not be quelled, as it charged the woman. She gasped, and made an attempt to parry the tusk that made to gore her with her dagger, but the flimsy starter implement did little to protect her. The tusk struck true, and Loreley found herself reeling with a large red pixelated hole in her stomach. "So, you're not a pushover after all, are you little piggy?" she asked with a smirk.

Loreley 0 Posted November 10, 2016 Author #4 Share Posted November 10, 2016 (edited) As frightening as the idea of potential death was, this was exactly what Loreley wanted. She wanted to feel the rush of adrenaline that came with being a part of a life or death situation. This boar could be her end, or it could be her beginning. Still smiling, Loreley danced into attacking range once more. The boar seemed confused by the woman's fluid movements, as well as by her moving into its own striking range, but Loreley paid little mind. She spun, her dagger glowing that deep purple, as it sliced into the boar's flesh, leaving the same red pixelated gashes that she herself had. Now both of them were scarred by battle, though her fancy footwork didn't come without a cost, as the boar seized the opportunity to slice into the woman's side with a squealing war cry. Loreley grunted as she took a step back, "Not one for dancing, eh? It's okay, I used to be bad at it too."

Loreley 0 Posted November 10, 2016 Author #5 Share Posted November 10, 2016 (edited) Everything fell into line as Loreley and the boar danced around one another. Loreley spun and sliced into the creature once again, but not without the cost of the creature's attack and step in time with her own. Back and forth like a metronome they did their dance. Loreley watched as her attacks barely scratched the surface of the creature, and for a moment she began to wonder if perhaps she had bitten off more than she could chew. Had it been too long since she had hunted? It was possible, and perhaps she didn't dance the right dance anymore. Loreley slid her feet through the grass, letting the sound of her traveling movements distract her from her plight. At worst, she could always run, but could she truly live with herself for that?

Loreley 0 Posted November 10, 2016 Author #6 Share Posted November 10, 2016 (edited) Loreley was feeling drained. As she looked to her Energy total, she realized the cause, and watched as the boar's health hadn't even hit yellow status. Loreley looked to the gashes strewn about her body, and at the steadily decreasing health bar of her own. She stepped forward and the familiar purple glow enveloped her dagger, but the blow itself seemed to dwindle just as much as her confidence. The boar, on the other hand, had no shortage of confidence, as its eyes glowed with an uncontained malice for her transgressions against its innocent snuffling. Her health bar dropped again, with the boar barely fazed by her own blow, and Loreley decided that her pride and confidence weren't worth her life. She growled, and turned to run.

Loreley 0 Posted November 10, 2016 Author #7 Share Posted November 10, 2016 (edited) Loreley turned tail. An action that she heavily cursed herself for, and wondered if she could forgive later. Truly she had to believe that her life was worth more than an honorable death. She wasn't some warrior out for glory, and nobody would remember her if she died in these grassy plains. No, an honorable death was pointless. But the boar seemed to have little interest in honor or lack thereof, as it charged after the woman in her flight. She looked over her shoulder as she ran, dodging rocks and other boars in the plains in her attempt to escape. The angry boar on her heels squealed, and swung his tusks at Loreley, but she managed to stay just ahead of the beast.
