Across the gate to Dayr Desert lies a tall golden statue crowded with people from all around the land. Within the circle was a tan tiny man shouting, “Brave adventurers gather ye armors and weaponry, I’ve got a quest for ye to take from som’ zientist willing to pay a whole lotta of zennys.”
Brudah was passing by the crimson-red haired tan fellow and decided to read what was on the flier.
“Dear, Adventurers,
I’ve come to you with a request that will take you and your party to Jawaii’s Wonderland Cave [N]. There you will encounter a tall-orange shirted rat name Ttoki. He will drop a lot of item called “So crystal”, which look a lot like the refine material polinium. Those who are successful in gathering “So crystal” will receive a reward of 500,000 zennys.
-sign: Professor Raze”
He folded the paper into his bag beside the sharp blue-glowing dagger. “This looks zenny my shipmate would be eager to grab hold of..”

“Oohh, I’m going to have plenty of cake to eat with that amount of zenny,” said Nana in solemn tone. She yawned with her green eyes open, while her hands stretched wide dropping the flyer.
Neko, the only sorcerer on the crew, picked up the flyer from the ground and the paper back to Brudah.”’Nya~ captain Ladee hasn’t been sounding all too well. Says’ she is down with the flu,’ said Neko frowningly. ‘Most of the ship crew is out roughing about in the town’s tavern.’”

Brudah manage to get one knight, from his crew, out of the bar.
“Aye aye. Well, those bloody pirate of ours ‘arrr set ‘n their way. Come along, Brudah ‘tere zenny t’ be made,” said Yu Lo, who casually walked while sharpening the tip of his sword.
Brudah retorted, “That is, if we slay the rat called Ttoki.”
Yu Lo pushed the tip of his sword back inside it’s leather shaft. He looked down at Brudah with his right eye and said, “I bought ye ‘som owl cards. Let’s trade it when ye in Wonderland.”

The group was walking together with Yu Lo leading the way. Monsters was sparsely spread throughout the cave, but the vast abundance of shiny-digs shared a reminder of how Wonderland can be a place not only full of beasts.
Neko eyes began to look gleeful. “Avast, these Stalagamite fragments can be mixed by Stolge in Jawaii Love Island. Yu Lo, meow, can you stand guard as I loot these materials.” Neko quickly dig around with one of her fang out. “Meow, all done until next shiny-materials.” She turned around to Brudah and asked, “What kind of cards did Yu Lo gave ye?”
“Just these three owls cards: Giant Forest Cucuri, Giante Forest Mucuri, and Giant Forest Ducuri.
“Meow? Why do you need INT from Mucuri card?”
“No idea, but it has additional damage 100%,” said Brudah with his arms folded.
They made their way to Ttoki’s lair. Neko and Nana rebuffed the party, Brudah was confident with the amount of time left he had; so, he didn’t use cast “mark of genecide”. Yu Lo made sure to see if his potion was in the right pockets.
“Les’ take down t’ scallywag,” shouted Yu Lo. He then casted aura armor and provoked Ttoki. “Mateys, when Ttori twirl ‘round his fist ‘here comes a gush of swirly winds that takes off all ye buffs. I advise ye ‘t stay far away as I ‘voke him away.”
Nana sighed, “Anyways, I’ll keep you guys all cure.”
Right when Ttori got to two-third of his health, he began to call his followers into the battle.
“Alrigh’ spawn ye pets, I want ‘t make ‘t in time for the traven’s happy hour,” said Yu Lo while laying on the brick ground with a tornado at his foot.
Neko swiftly casted Deluge, Land of Recovery, Thunderstorm, and lastly Lord of Vermillion. “These mice are nothin’ compare to my combo!”
“Who would've of thought that this INT and VIGOR can come so handy to a Assassin.” Brudah casted his guardian and then Ymir Child: Cthulhu. “Rat roast coming up.” He summoned, Imp.. Moving closely to Ttori, Brudah then performed Shadow Explosion, ending the battle.
All mumbling noises stopped. The team stand on guard as Brudah looted Ttori, thus finding one hundred So-Crystals inside the vest pocket of Ttori.
“Let’s get back to the ship,” said Yu Lo frankly looking tired.

Next morning, Brudah turned in the quest item to Professor Raze. The professor was in his office when Brudah entered. Bru laid the small brown bag full of So-Crystals on Professor Raze’s stainless-steel desk. “Here is the items you asked on this flyer.”
Raze took out his loupe to examine if the crystals had the right monocular structure. After viewing all one hundred, he handed Brudah a chest full of zenny that was hidden in a bigger box behind his desk. “You look like a guy I could rely on how about working here?”
“Ah, the life of a pirate is tough to let go, I’ll think about.” replied Brudah. He packed the zenny in his magical handbag and out the blue door he went.
Avoiding potential robbers. He got on the ship and into Yu Lo’s room, while spliting the zennys other shipmates came in and pester Brudah for ten zenny each, the lump sum needed to purchase a single glass of Morodona. When Brudah finally made it to Ladee room, he had less than 83,266 zennys left.
She was combing her black hair. The sun was out and shined through her stained glass window. Her skin was still a bit pale but every symptom of the flu has vanished. Ladee looking at Brudah through her mirror, “I’ve been thinking about how it would be nice to live in Alberta. Yu Lo and the other 14 members can come visit me from time to time.”
“Why the rush? Have you fallen for some guy in town?”
“No,” said Ladee as she put on her faux rings. “When you were out hunting Ttoki, I went to visit the doctor in town. He had my blood drawn and the result was that I was pregnant.”
“I’ve always loved you. If that is your wish we can raise our family here in Alberta.”
With the 83,266 zennys in hand they waved good-bye to Yu Lo, Nana, Neko, and the other fifteen crew members.
“Aye, ‘hey set in their ways. Those two love birds,” said Yu Lo speaking to himself.
Great stories everyone!
