[PP-F6] Nature Troubles (Lindow)

[Kotori 0]

The jungles of Aincrad, which were located on the sixth floor, was an odd place to be when not involved in other business. It was amazing how few times Kotori herself had gotten herself up to explore the floor itself and this was including the fact that she had been trapped in SAO along with so many others for so long that this was mind-blowing in itself. It truly was one of the underrated places to exist and explore, it wasn't as if it was that dangerous if a person had just a bit of equipment on them. Of course she was long past that stage of being doing little damage and having low health to worry about, she could manage fine on her own. There wasn't much to however in terms of quests and rare item that could be located on the place in question, even the game itself made it seem a floor that a player could never go to and be perfectly okay never visiting it. Then again this could be the case for floors in the future and even a few that had been unlocked. That wasn't important, what was really important was her beginning to enter the jungle and leaving the safe zone. Her dagger had been equipped and she had health potions enough to last her day, not to mention a bit of determination on her side. She was prepared although it wasn't as one needed to prepare to be on the floor, it was just something that occurred. She of course didn't expect anybody to find her or see her, this floor wasn't really one people traveled on often.

Lindow had been feeling the nerve to visit some of the other floors. After hearing the recent victories of clearing floors, he decided it was a good idea to see what else Aincrad had to offer while maintaining a safe bubble for himself. Still in starter gear and not much to call his own, he was very cautious with the scenario. Rounding out his shoulder, he ended up on the sixth floor. When he arrived he was not expecting a tropical forest, this was a great difference from the toiling Starting City he was used to and familiar with. 

Taking out his massive two handed sword, Lindow decided to take safety measures, noting his position on the map as to not get lost. Making a marker he set foot into the massive forest. His eyes looked all around, it was quite beautiful and the scenery was breath taking. There was so much vegetation as far as the eye could see and the tree were mighty and their vast canopies seemed to block out most of the unnatural light. 

 

"Better get out of here before it gets too dark, it might not be safe. I imagine there to be some wild beasts hunting in the forest." As he was talking to himself, he noticed a female player just a short distance ahead of him, what in the world was she doing? A hand on his hilt, he took off with a light jog to catch up to her, "Excuse me, young Miss!" He soon caught up to her and catching her attention. She was a small thing, he was a good foot taller than she was and looked quite young compared to his greying hair and beard. His stormy eyes sat on her as he came up and looked around making sure there was no immediate threats before he began speaking.

 

"I didn't think anyone else was going to be on this floor, it can be pretty dangerous to go alone. How about we party up so we have a better chance at survival. My name is Lindow by the way," his arm extended outwards, his large hands big enough to engulf both her little ones.
