{{PP-PT-F01}} I Guess Murders Ain't All Bad

[Reytac 0]

 

Reytac stretched out his shoulders, his joints popping, as he walked down the dirt path that he'd found. He'd heard a rumor that a particular NPC that he'd been trying to find for a while was here - and from the odd structure in the distance, he was fairly certain that the rumor had been true. A frission of relief went through him. He'd wanted a companion for a while, seeing the ones that other players had just ended up filling him with more and more longing as the days went by, and now he'd finally found the key to starting down that path. 

There was a conservatively dressed, green-haired woman, humming a soft tune as she moved around a small campfire which had a pot bubbling atop it. As he approached slowly, the woman paused and held up one hand, and Rey watched as a sparrow landed on it. The bird thrilled at the woman a few times, puffed its feathers, then flew off, and he had to shake his head. 

A Disney Princess in Aincrad. Reytac stepped forward to raise his voice in greeting, only for the woman to turn around and stare at him intently. He stumbled, and she gave him a soft smile. 

"Greetings, traveler. Are you here for some aid with something?" 

"Ah, yes? Hi. I'm here because I heard that you might be able to help me in finding a companion for my travels?" 

"Oh, now that's wonderfully worded, wasn't it traveler? You know better than to think them a pet." The woman smiled, and Rey felt a little uneasy - there was something... Odd, that he couldn't quite place. "You've come to the right place. I can give you some of my Familiar Food, to help soothe the tension in their soul. It won't guarantee success, of course, that still hinges on you, but it will at least allow you to make the attempt." She picked up a wooden bowl with a lid that she unscrewed, and carefully ladled some of the food from the pot above the fire into it. After screwing the lid back in place, she held the bowl towards Reytac. 

"Here, traveler. May it aid you." Reytac took the bowl as he heard footsteps approach behind him.

The world around her felt heavy. The greenery, the flowers, the breeze, the clouds, not even the sunshine had quenched this feeling of dread that drenched her from head to toe. She ignored it best she could, setting out on a quest of her own. One of hearsay. Cascade had overheard a conversation at her local tavern. There was a woman along the trails that could offer a means to acquire a companion, or at the very least, guide her in the right direction. She had dreamt of having someone to share her journeys with, but it had always been a distant wish. At best, all she could do was attempt to chase that far off dream. 

 

The path she walked along was rugged. There was a strange mist that almost appeared to curl around her feet as she walked; just enough to avoid the movement. Like a waltz, but instead of sharing the dance, they avoided one another as though the touch would poison upon embrace. Eventually she'd walked long enough to see others in the distance. Only a few paces more and she had reached them. A green haired woman stood near a flickering fire and pot. If Cascade hadn't known any better, she'd almost assume the woman was a witch. She glanced at the man. He he was tall, had a strong build, and scars that showed his experience in battle varied along his skin. She pushed the thoughts aside approaching the pair. Her eyes fell on the woman, as she locked gazes with her. 

 

Good evening, It's been foretold that if I sought you out you may be able to aid me. You see, I am interested in a traveling companion. Her voice was even and honest. 

 

The woman grinned. "Seems as though the lot of you today are very wise." She clicked her tongue and fiddled over to Cascade, grabbing her by the shoulders. Cascades alarm was far from hidden within her features as her eyes widened and face contorted from the sudden touch. She took a step back in protest, but the woman's grip remained firm, she stared into Cascades eyes as though she were searching for something.

 

The green haired woman let go, "Ah yes, you'll do just fine." She waved a finger in the air as she went back to her campfire; rummaging amongst her things. "Here it is." She said in triumph. She had found a bowl and now began to fill it with the slop that resided within the pot. "This is Familiar Food, to ease the tension in their soul. As I've just told your friend there," she gestured to the ginger haired man, "It will not guarantee your triumph. Succession hinges on you,  but this will allow you to at least make the attempt."

 

Just a moment later she set down her laddle and twisted the lid on securely, before hurriedly handing it to Cascade. "May it aid you on your journeys travelers." She looked to and from Cascade and the man who stood off to the side. He had been watching from afar since her arrival. She glanced at him and then turned away, eyes falling to the lidded bowl. She didn't let the thought stew withing her mind, but something felt strange. She had recognized it the moment the woman had spoken to her, but what was it?
