Wild Rose Forge

[Lessa 1]

"New day," Lessa spoke aloud, to herself, as there was no one else in the shop. The smile she wore was easy, and well rested, as she had finally achieved a decent night's rest. It had been some time since she had been able to claim that, considering the violent nightmares and waves of guilt that plagued her evening hours. But the wounds were healing with time, and her own self-realizations had hastened the process. If this game was to be here prison, she could not spend all of her time sulking. There were still some beautiful things that lurked within the confines of SAO. Her own cloud of darkness had masked them, but she worked to find them again.

Besides, Lessa had picked up two orders in as many days. It had been months since she had made a piece of equipment for someone other than herself. When sheer pleasure had motivated her, the final product had not been to her liking. Perhaps these requests would help her find her focus again.

She grimaced. "Nope. Still no."

Sunlight streamed through the front windows, but it could not cut through to the back of the shop. Instead, the heart of the Wild Rose Forge was lit by the fire in the corner. Its flames danced merrily, the crackling and popping reminiscent of the fires that Alyssa had enjoyed with her parents during frigid Michigan evenings. But this fire was much hotter, the air beside it hazy with the blistering heat. It streaked across Lessa's bare arms, dampening her skin with beads of salty sweat. Though the blacksmith was out of practice, the feeling was still familiar to her, and she did not rush to escape the fire's touch. Instead, she rather liked it. It seemed to breathe some life back into her, and such sensation was always welcome.

Lessa heaved a heavy sigh, her body deflating with disappointment. Not so bad, she reminded herself, but not what she had hoped for.

     CJ looks around the Town of Beginnings, overwhelmed over just how big it is. His jaw drops as he sees people chatting like normal pedestrians in this large town. He starts glancing around as he takes in his new surrounds. There's no way CJ was gonna find his friend as quickly as he might have been hoping.

     He notices a green gem hovering above his head. What could this possibly mean? Just then, CJ overhears a couple of men walking past him.

"Hey, did you hear that there are some Orange Players outside of town?"

     A red haired man dressed in a long dark blue coat asks his acquaintance next to him. CJ noticed they also had green gems floating above their heads. Could they possibly be other players of this game?

"Yeah, aren't they the ones who will kill other players even though if you die in this game it means death in the real world?"

     The gentleman's acquaintance seems worried towards him. With a nod, the man shivered.

"That's them. We should get you a better weapon. Follow me to floor 2, I know just the place!"

     Although not one to usually eavesdrop, CJ couldn't help but be worried about what he heard. If you die in this game, you die in real life? It was a terrifying thought for CJ. Last time he saw James though, he was still alive. That must mean he was alive. CJ turned his head to see who was speaking. He notices the younger person was wearing gear similar to his. Was he new too? CJ couldn't help but wonder if that means he would need a new weapon to survive too. It couldn't hurt.

"Excuse me. I'm new to this game. I over heard you talking, I'm sorry. Would you mind telling me where I might find a better weapon too?"

     Shocked by the news. The man happily wrote down the directions and how to get there. Wild Rose Forge, and ask for Lessa. Easy enough direction. The man was even nice enough to explain the teleport gate to CJ. It was clear to CJ he would need to follow the rules of this world to survive. With that, he teleported to floor 2 and followed the directions given to him.

   It took him much longer than expected, but eventually CJ found the large brick building with a sign painted "Wild Rose Forge." This must be the place. With a big gulp, CJ walked in. The place was extremely well kept. There seemed to be tools of all types on the wall with a crackling fire in the corner of the shop. Honestly, it had quite the home like feeling. CJ glanced around as he stepped inside, hoping to find someone.

"Um excuse me? I'm looking for Lessa?

The jingle of the bells at her door was something she hadn’t heard in a while. Even as the stranger stepped inside, Lessa stepped away from her forge and behind the counter. In that simple movement, she shifted from blacksmith to saleswoman. As she expected a mere traveler, she was startled when he requested her by name.

”I’m Lessa,” she answered with a grin. “It’s a pleasure to meet you.” When the man explained his vision, Lessa nodded. “Sure, I can do that for you no problem. Just hang on one sec.”

A couple minutes later, she returned with his sword. “It’s only a rare, but it should get you started. If you can give me a little more time, I can make you something much better.”

     CJ watched on as Lessa moved from her forge to the counter and introduced herself with a smile. CJ noticed the green gem floating above her head. She must be a player of the game too. Was Lessa her username then? CJ was unsure if people used their real names in this world or not. Still unsure of his environment though, CJ decided it was probably best to use his username for now.

"Hi there Lessa. My name is Roxis. I was recommended to come here if I was looking for a weapon."

     Roxis proceeded to explain to her that he was new to this game and really didn't have a complete understanding of what was going on. He mentioned to her the kind of weapon he might be looking for. Though within a couple minutes, Lessa made a sword that looked perfect to the idea Roxis had pictured in his head. He was amazed by the craftsmanship of the long two handed blade and how she made it so quickly.

"Wow. That was amazing!"

     Roxis wasn't quite sure by what Lessa meant by 'it's only a rare' but never the less the blade looked amazing to him. Roxis raised his finger and swiped down to open his menu as he saw others do before.

"How much do I owe you for this sword? It looks amazing to me and I'd love to have it."

It had been some time since <<Faustein>> had headed to the shop of a certain highly skilled Blacksmith named <<Macradon>> and put in an custom production request for his new T1 Perfect grade Assault Spear-type Giant Scalpel, the <<Fabrication Designation - Gungnir MK2>> which was essentially an upgraded version of his current standard Assault Spear-type Giant Scalpel, <<Fabrication Designation - Gungnir MK1>>. Since then, upon his return to his current base in the <<Town of Beginnings>>, he had gotten back to his ongoing and ever-burgeoning mad science research and his progressively more detailed study of the VRMMORPG world of SAO which was his main objective everyday when he was not otherwise engaged in quests. 

Hmm...the enemies are becoming increasingly tougher and far trickier as well...so perhaps it is time to acquire a secondary weapon just in case I happen upon a battle wherein my main weapon, the <<Gungnir MK2>> is separated from me...perhaps a Rapier will suffice for this purpose...

He mused silently while still languishing on his semi-firm bed at his usual inn whilst still in a half-asleep state due to having crashed completely after pulling what was basically another three sequential all-nighters since he was so inextricably engrossed in the advancement of his beloved research. While mulling over this idea for obtaining a custom made rapier as a secondary weapon to use as a backup in the event of disarmament by any target, <<Faustein>> slowly dragged himself out of bed and readied himself in his usual physician-scientist's outfit, this one being the new <<Svalinn MK2>>, while yawning briefly. After that was done, he strapped his <<Gungnir MK1>> into its holster which he had slung across his back and headed out of the inn and into the streets of the <<Town of Beginnings>>. Once there, he stretched lightly to wake himself up and purchased some freshly brewed coffee from a nearby vendor NPC while mulling over his current agenda silently

Now then, let's see...if memory serves, <<Lessa>> is also a highly accomplished Blacksmith...Perhaps it would be wise to commission her to create this custom Rapier. Yes, now that should help greatly with my ability to protect myself from attack during the course of my endless research...

With that thought in mind, he headed off as a brisk pace toward where said blacksmith's shop was located and after some effort he managed to reach his destination. After arrival, he entered and announced himself and greeted <<Lessa>>, his voice being his naturally rich, resonant baritone and melodious one

"Greetings, <<Lessa>>. I am here today to place a custom request for a one-handed rapier which you can see here. So, if you could please oblige me in crafting this custom weapon, I would greatly appreciate it."

Name: <<Fabrication Designation - Mistilteinn MK1>>
Item Type: Weapon 
Tier: 1
Quality: Perfect
Enhancements: ACC, DMG, Paralyze
Description: 

The <<Fabrication Designation - Mistilteinn MK1>> is Rapier type weapon that takes the form of a shikomizue or cane sword (shown in the image above). This weapon has two components and is made of three different high quality metals overall. The first is the scabbard which is made of a single, dark colored metal and which is unlike the regular scabbards seen on standard rapiers in that it takes the form of a harmless looking, but still solid-cast walking cane using by the old and infirm to support themselves while performing ambulatory activities. However, despite its innocuous appearance, its secret lies in the long, tapered, cylindrical hidden compartment it houses inside itself to securely hold the concealed sword part of the overall shikomizue/cane sword. The other is the concealed sword part of the overall shikomizue/cane sword and though this is technically classified as a Rapier-type sword, it is dissimilar to standard rapiers since it does not possess the usual complex and ornately designed guard situated at the intersection between the blade and the hilt.

The body of the hilt is made mostly of a dark colored metal and has a thick ring of metallic gold encircling the portion just before the beginning of the blade part. The pommel at the other end of this hilt takes the form of a solid-cast metallic golden skull which is connected to the rest of the hilt by a small, thick tubular piece which is also made of metallic gold. Finally, the blade portion is long, narrow, and cylindrical like that of a common, straight suturing needle used in certain surgical procedures with the tip tapering down to a short, razor-sharp needle-point. The overall design on the blade portion imbues this Rapier with the ability to allow <<Faustein>> to not only land his attacks on any given target with greater accuracy and precision than normal, but also has the ability to inflict higher damage than normal on said target as well as afflict the chosen target a transient paralytic state upon successful impact. This blade portion extends from the end of the hilt and secured in it by a long, roughly conical, silver-colored metallic brace and together with the hilt and scabbard, is designed to make this weapon look like nothing more than an innocuous, regular walking cane to any beholder.

With that said, <<Faustein>> fell silent and waited for <<Lessa>> to accept his request after which he transferred over the agreed upon price of 4x Mats as a production fee for this custom request.
