Grave 0 Posted August 24, 2015 Author #21 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 Exhaustion from continuous failure was beginning to overwhelm me. I stayed at the pear-nut tree to see if I could actually get something that might go in my inventory. You know when you win a prize in a contest and you're all hyper about it? Yeah, that's how I felt when one of those nuts dropped itself on my noggin and dropped into my inventory, revealing itself as a 'Kopi Nut'. Strange name.---ID: 28734LD: 20 = +1 Kopi Nut (Mat)Grave: 24/29 HP Link to post Share on other sites
Grave 0 Posted August 24, 2015 Author #22 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 I kept circling the Kopi Nut tree, like a panther circling its prey. Or more like a wolf; that suited me better. Actually that reminded me of something at the time; it was probably getting close the point at which I should have gotten a familiar... But which one? A Wolf? No, too mainstream. I'd die to grass before I tamed a Boar... Aldrams would be too big... I did hear of some kind of 'Weasel Mage' on the Third Floor, and that sounded rather interesting. It was bloody well worth a shot. But first...I rubbed my head after another nut fell on me. They seriously hit hard! And my hair is thick as bloody hell, and the nuts still hurt! I couldn't wait until I was finished...---ID: 28735LD: 11 = Stop throwing nuts at Grave!Grave: 23/29 HP (Nuts hurt!) Link to post Share on other sites
Grave 0 Posted August 24, 2015 Author #23 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 I moved on from the Kopi Nut tree. It didn't seem like it wanted me to hang around. Their were still a few more exotic plants around, and so went up to one with long, rope-like citrus fruits. They looked almost like a strung-out mango! I detached one from the spiky, pine-leaf style bush and put one end in my mouth. It had next to no taste. No way was that going to be a useful ingredient in my cooking.---ID: 28736LD: 8 = Some food is just useless.Grave: 24/29 HP Link to post Share on other sites
Grave 0 Posted August 24, 2015 Author #24 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 I was so close to just giving up. No joke, I was extremely agitated, I didn't expect farming to take so bloody long. In the end fighting mobs for mats was probably a better idea. At least I was guaranteed a material from them. I turned my gaze to a small shrub in the earth. It had little nut-like beads hanging off of its fan-shaped leaves. The food just got weirder and weirder. I'd probably be able to make something nice out of them though...I didn't think they'd be so fragile. I attempted to grab the nuts, but with the force I grabbed them they just disintegrated in my hands. So much for making a snack out of them.---ID: 28737LD: 9 = Careful Grave!Grave: 25/29 HP Link to post Share on other sites
Grave 0 Posted August 24, 2015 Author #25 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 (edited) That's it, I was done, I was leaving. I made one final effort to find something, and decided to try the blue bananas again. Yet again, I felt my mouth just die from the burning solution inside the fruit, and I did my best to flush my mouth out. Why I thought anything would change was absolutely beyond me. I left the forest and made my way back up to the Town of Beginnings to complete the quest and set up shop.---ID: 28738LD: 10 = Do you know the definition of insanity?Grave: 26/29 HP Edited August 24, 2015 by Grave Link to post Share on other sites
