[F20 - PP] Growth in the Garden | <<Nature's Treasure>>


Recommended Posts

"Lets do this." the green clad duelist would say with a smirk before taking off running towards the players' quarry. Jomei would slow his roll so he could fall back into Nari's shadow, running along her flank closely. As the woman popped into the air with a twirling motion, the ginger broke off to the opposite end of the monsters gathered. 

Allowing Nari's attack to land on two of the creatures, a small gathering of frost clinging to their bodies, Jomei followed up with two large horizontal strikes deep red gashes appeared on three of the four Knights. The limbs and muscles of each one his by Jomei's attack would suddenly seize up. Emerald eyes would fall upon the one that just barely moved out of the way of his attack, readying itself to retaliate against the three players.

A curious eye watched the two as they exchanged what Koga surmised to be greetings of some kind that seemed to have a strange effect on Nari, a slight tint coloring her cheeks. Was...Jomei trying to flirt with her? This day was only becoming more and more confusing as it went on. The man closed his eyes, shook his head, and once again moved on, not having the energy to try and decipher whatever was going on.

There was a fight to be had, after all.

Nari dashed forward first, each foot step heavily clanking against the ground before she launched herself in the air, drawing a violet arc through air, striking two of the herd. A short exchange, and Jomei followed up, tailing the woman, before breaking off to harass the four mobs from the side as Koga moved to opposite side, crimson light shining along the length of his blade as he made a wide sweeping slice, only striking two of their targets. A slight click of annoyance at having missed an immobile target, but no matter. They weren't done yet anyways.

The only one left able to move, and surprisingly unscathed, pounced towards Nari, raising it's arm high in the air and crashing down with explosive force that dealt a pitiful amount of damage to the well-armored woman. A short pause, was followed by a screech of pain as Nari's thorns activated and the mob felt pain for the first time in it's short life.

A shift in the air as Jomei followed her lead, his blade twirling around before coming to rest. Seconds later, Koga’s own strikes flew by, almost as fast as those of Jomei, albeit seemingly less powerful. A brief nod to the two, and then she realised one of the creatures had slammed its claws against her side, pushing her slightly off balance.

Regaining her feet, she turned to face the weakest of the creatures, shrugging off the strike that had hit her as if nothing had occurred. Focusing instead on her target, she let herself fall into her ready position, the shield and spear levelled, tip glittering in the sunlight. A shift of her left leg, sliding backwards and locking into place as her left arm pushed forwards to drive the spear towards the creature.

The violet trail in the air left a shimmering trail behind as it soared towards the creature. “I’ll try and hold their attention as best as I can, but if you feel like they’re beginning to focus on you, make sure to switch out. Got it?”

This band of creatures showed much more resilience than the first four that they had faced off against. The fact that most of them were still standing with a large chunk of their health bars remaining just showed that they were more suited for players for their level. The three that Jomei had stunned twitched and shifted as movement returned to their limbs, the paralyzing effect of his sword art wearing off. Sucking his teeth, he looked between them as one lashed out against Nari, its claws crashing into her form. Not much damage to cause any real concern, at least. 

Raising up his left forearm across his body, Jomei drew the length of Nihilim's Wrath against it, is if pulling back the string of a bow readying to fire. "Koga, I'll knock down that one's health so its in the same playing field as its friends. Then you come in and hit them all with another area attack." Single strikes were more Jomei's forte anyway, despite the damage he had been dealing with AoE attacks. 

The already black blade seemed to lose any semblance of light reflecting off of its surface as the ginger shifted his grip, darkness overcoming the length of the rapier. With a blur of green and shadow, Jomei shot forth from where he stood with his Charge skill, adding that extra punch behind his attack as the point of his blade slammed into the chest of the Knight of Gaia. As he made contact, the translucent barrier that represented the monster's armor mitigation cracked into a spiderweb like pattern. "Alright! Hit 'em!" Jomei called out to his companions.

Despite one of theirs taking only the most minor of blows, the group of players did not break their battle cadence. Pressing on as if she couldn't even feel the blow (underneath all that plate, Koga would have been surprised if she could feel it) Nari raised her shield, her spear and thrust the sharp point into one of their prey, her form almost reminiscent of a Spartan's.

What exactly was it that made NIGHT choose her?

"Alright! Hit 'em!" Jomei's call interrupted Koga's stray thought, and the man turned back towards the mobs. "On it!" he called back, leaping straight into the air, where the gleam of shining armor caught his eye, drawing his attention for a moment once more.

He just didn't get it. Was it some weird enemies-to-lovers plot he just didn't understand?

The man came crashing back down to earth in a fury of red light, the glowing blade cleaving two of the mobs in half and destroying them. But that still left two more. A low growl of frustration this time as Koga backed off from the group, avoiding a flail of deadly arms. Not good enough.

"Fuck, someone please finish these guy's off," Koga muttered, "I'm not here for this shit right now apparently."

Triple flashes, soft against the corners of her vision as her own strike, followed by Jomei – and then finally the shadowed form of Koga lit by the red glow of his sword art. As three of the creatures erupted into shards, Nari pulled her shield in tighter – eyeing their final victim. She wasn’t sure, but she thought she could hear Koga muttering to himself.

She couldn’t help but marvel at the synchronisation of their movements, the way in which they were able to play off one another even with their limited interactions. The follow up of attack, followed by rush and attack – it was all so beautifully put together, and she felt herself smiling in earnest from behind her shield.

“Morríghan, lend me your strength.” The prayer muttered, she rushed forwards, taking a sudden leap backwards as the creature lashed out at her dash, before ducking underneath its second swing and popping up underneath its guard. Driving her spear forward, she aimed for the centre of the things chest, hoping to complete her strike and bring the creature to the Abyss that was Cardinal’s dark spots.

"Hey!" Jomei called over to Koga as the man cut cleanly through two of the monsters, "You still took out two of them and left one barely hanging on, I wouldn't count yourself out yet." he encouraged his friend. 

With seemingly one enemy left, Jomei watched as Nari said a silent prayer to herself before heading in to finish the creature off. Jomei followed closely behind her with his sword at the ready, in case her attack failed so he could quickly follow up and finish it off. As he had predicted, Nari's spear only scathed the surface of the Knight's armor, so the moment she stepped out of the way, Jomei plunged his rapier deep into the chest of the monster to finish it off. 

As the creature burst into pixels, Jomei reaping the rewards of his kill, a flash out of the corner of his eye sparked him to move out of the way. His shoulder hit the ground with a diving roll as another of the creatures burst from the chaos and swiped its large claws at Jomei, barely missing the ginger. "Looks like I missed one in the commotion, that's all you Koga!"

Jomei and Nari focused in on one of the last two remaining Knights. Movements occured so quickly, their figures were almost blurs. The swing of a bladed arm, the thrust of a sturdy lance followed by the fast moving tip of a rapier. Smooth, flowing, like a dance.

But, even the best dancers made mistakes some times. The best simply knew how to cover their mistakes. The party's mistake in this performance was taking their eyes off the last Knight. Not even Koga, who rightly should have been responsible for keeping track of it, noticed when it slipped away for a moment, only reappearing to swing it's arms at Jomei. That man was far too quick, however. Liquid, he rolled beneath the bladed arm, cutting it close enough that it looked like the entire fight was choreographed, practiced, staged.

"I got him!" Koga called back to Jomei, ducking beneath another swinging arm, this time aimed for his own neck. No time was wasted. A single, quick upwards slash across the mob's chest, and it too joined it's brethren in Cardinal's recycle bin.

"Well, look's like that's that." Koga said with a nod to the other two, sheathing his weapon.

As the third and final exploding into thousands of shards, slowly drifting towards the ground before disappearing from sight, Nari let herself relax. Pulling up her menu and stowing the weapons and armour – content to return to her more casual clothing – she grinned at the other two, a smile of bliss and enjoyment.

“Well, I’d say that went well, all things considered? Did we score anything of value this time around?” She let her eyes wander across the nearby field, searching for the materials that she had come to find originally – almost hoping that something of value would make an appearance.

“I don’t know how late you two want to stay, but we could hit up another pack, or do some general gathering – or call it a day, not sure what your schedules look like.” She spoke even as she looked around, her mind split between the conversation and her search.

Another large smile as she eventually turned back towards the two, the look in her eyes slightly hesitant as she spoke. “It is nice to spend time with the both of you, though. I really had fun today, and want to thank you for that.”

"Phew" Jomei exhaled as the remaining threat was eliminated. Sliding his sword back into its scabbard on his hip, he looked at his two companions. "A few mats.. some Col. No items really worth noting though." he said with a shrug of his shoulders. Gathering was not only something that Jomei did not do often, it was something he usually didn't enjoy. Be it because he was not big on crafting, or if it was because he usually went about doing it on his own. With company, however, it was pretty enjoyable. Gave them something to do as they just spoke. 

"I'm actually having a good time as well." the ginger said with a wide grin. "This normally isn't my cup of tea.. but gathering with friends definitely has its benefits." Taking a quick peek around the garden, Jomei weighed their options. "I have nowhere else to be for today, so I'll leave that up to you. I'm just enjoying the time out of the house. Spent too much time pent up there recently."

"Nada," Koga shook his head at the first question. Nothing but a couple of consumables and a crafting material. Nothing even worth mentioning. A little disappointing, if Koga was being honest, but RNGesus was a fickle god after all. One day you're getting uniques, the next you're just looting rocks.

At the second remark, Koga also shrugged alongside Jomei. "I got nothing either. Like I said. I need to level up my Fishing skill." 'And to think.'

That was probably one of the few things Koga actually liked about fishing. It was calm, gave the man room to breathe and work through his thoughts. Or in this case, his total confusion.

The man broke out his fishing rod, and stood by the shore casting a line into the water, the bob gently undulating in the water. "Hey, if I catch anything, we can have dinner at my place. I can cook us up something," the man offered, looking over his shoulder at the other two, eyes lingering for a moment on Nari. Maybe at the end of the day, that would offer them more time to talk in private.

She glanced between the two, watching as Koga settled in for a bit of fishing – clearly wanting to relax a bit after the back to back combat. Nari smiled, understanding the desire, even if she’d prefer to keep moving herself. Determined to at least make use of the down time, she moved towards Jomei, nodding towards the weapon on his hip.

“I couldn’t help but notice your use of the Tech skills – did you focus on them for combat, or was it just pure coincidence?” She realised the personal question, and unconsciously pulled her hands together in front of herself. “I-Sorry, I know that’s a personal question. I was just going to say, I’ve been collecting them myself, focused on Tech because it allows me to set up the others in the fight and all. Was going to see if you had any pointers – I usually do a group stun, or try to at least, before following up with something like Shatter. I don’t deal a ton of damage myself, but the debuffs and ailments that the Techs provide mean that so long as I can land a hit, well…then it’s better for everyone, right?”

Another quick glance at Koga, and she noticed the man eyeing her. She wondered if there was still animosity there – she had no doubt that there was a rift between them, and that it hadn’t healed yet, as polite as they were being to one another.

Listening as the others spoke, she found herself combing through the nearby flowers, pulling off a single violet iris and placing it within her hair, just above her left ear. She kept her eyes out for anything of value, knowing that the materials could always be useful – even if not immediately.

“Dinner sounds…nice. I’d be more than happy to tag along for it. I…probably won’t be able to help much, though. I’m an abyssal kitchen aid.”

"Oh?" Jomei's attention turned to Nari as she approached, inquiring about his choice of skills in combat. The ginger responded with a bright smile as he lay the blade of his rapier across the palm of his hand, as if studying the weapon. "No need to apologize, I don't really see it as a personal question." He recalled all of the boss raids he had taken part in, and any other tougher enemy he had taken down along side his friends. 

"I've never been much of a heavy hitter. My damage output has always been subpar compared to some of the other frontliners. When it comes to the common monster, sure, I can handle them.. But floor bosses, I never made enough of a dent to really make a difference." The man chuckles, looking down at the weapon as the light catches the metal, "Probably just a downside of being a rapier user. I make up for that in speed and accuracy, however. So I figured.. if I can guarantee a hit, but maybe not the hardest hit, might as well make them count somehow."

The prospect of putting together a dinner based on something Koga caught, or maybe something they gathered, was new to him. Never had Jomei really thought about using their gathering skills to forage for food.. rather than just crafting materials. The man could not help but let out a small laugh at the thought, "Well, that's saying we actually catch something. I think at this point, we'd probably have to pick something up from the store." As Nari moved off to search through some flowers, Jomei did his own searching within a bush near where Koga was set up. Keeping his eyes on the bush as he pushed through it, he spoke, "Though.. it still seems like you and Nari have some personal business to talk about, so I'd hate to intervene. If you two need that privacy, I wouldn't be offended."

Koga seemed to be staring off into space as he watched his bob in the water, lost in his own thoughts, even as he made mental commentary about Jomei and Nari's converation. Speed, agility, just as good as raw damage. Had it's own benefits. When Nari mentioned that she wasn't that much help in the kitchen, Koga waved the woman off absently. "Don't worry about it, I can manage." He cooked for himself and Yuki daily. The boy would be eating ash if Koga wasn't around.

With Jomei trying to escape though, Koga shook his head. "Naw, it'd be no trouble. As long as you don't have anything to be or something. Or mind a quick groceries trip." Koga frowned as he tugged on his line softly. "'Cause I still got nothing." And chances were that that wasn't going to change anytime soon.

"What do you guys like anyways?" the man asked, trying to think of something all three would enjoy.

Nari leaned back against a rock, smiling as she thought about all the different foods that were available. The selection that she went through daily was...limited, but only through necessity and not by choice - it was expensive to eat well everyday, and when you were looking at upkeeping gear and fighting constantly, well...

"That's easy. A nice, well done cordon bleu, preferably with a side of oven-roasted fries, and a cayenne-dip mixture...not that those are easy to find in Aincrad. But..." She fell silent. She was about to mention how good it would be once they made it out, before realising the darkness behind such a simple statement. The question of when had become less common lately, and she found her mood souring in response as she realised it.

Rolling to her side, she decided to glance through a nearby stump in order to distract her, pulling out her score with a single hand. She considered her next response carefully, the words coming out through a semi-clenched jaw. "I'd suffer through a well-done steak at this point, though...assuming that was possible."

"Honestly.. its not ever day you get a home cooked meal. I don't visit cooks enough, even for items with enhancements, let alone just to get a snack made by another player. Usually I just stick to the NPC spots.." He chuckled to himself, thinking of the gourmet meal Nari mentioned she was craving, "I'm not sure if my palate is that refined but.. I could really go for anything. What's your specialty?"

As he asked, he took another quick look at an overgrown flower bed, perfect for finding materials. Reaching a hand out in its direction, he pulled his hand back slightly, before deciding the better of it. After the day's events, and failures, he had mentally checked out from doing any more searching for materials. 

Pushing off of his knees, he rose to his full height and stretched his arms up over his head. "All this talk about food though is getting me hungry. Should we head back?"

Cordon bleu. Well, Koga had to admit that was probably outside of his expertise. He'd never really tried to make that before, either in the real world or in game. And he was a much better cook in game. The rest was pretty manageable though, he thought, even if it wasn't quite the same given Aincrads limits. He'd yet to even attempt replicating cayenne. But then Nari brought up well-done steak, and the man's neck audibly creaked as it haltingly turned towards her, stopping at a degree which no human should feasibly be able to achieve. "You've lost your food privileges," he hissed at her.

"Well, don't get your hopes up too much," Koga said to Jomei as he began to reel in his line and flicked the item away into the abyss of his inventory. "Its just kinda a hobby for me. And, ya know, wanting not to starve to death. Cooks could do better. But-" the man stood and dusted off his pants. "Hopefully you'll still like it. How do steaks and mashed potatoes and some roasted asparagus sound to everyone?"

Nari opened her mouth to argue, her left hand raising halfway into the air before stopping, the fingers spread slightly as though she was reaching out to grasp something. Her face seemed to twitch, in response, as if she was resisting the urge to argue with the fact that her privileges were being revoked. A few seconds later, she simply shook her head, letting her hand fall back down and smiling slightly.

"I'm hungry as well, we should probably start heading back. Especially if Koga is actually going to cook something up for us..." She pushed herself to her feet calmly, tasking a moment to dust herself off before tilting her head at Koga. She considered the offer for a moment, before sticking her tongue out and giving the best, sarcastic response she could. "It sounds delicious, so long as the steaks are done a proper medium-rare. Assuming, of course, that you can manage that - it shouldn't be too difficult of a task, for someone of your talents."

She took a few steps towards the exit from the Garden, turning back and waving a hand in front of her. "Unless the two of you would rather remain here and chew on...whatever lives here. Personally, I'd take the steak and potatoes, given the opporunity."
