Entry Title: That evil Kukre in the acolyte's heart

Category: Writing 

RO Character Name: Koalita

Server: Chaos

 

Spoiler

Once upon a time there was a little acolyte trying to survive on the dangerous Sunken Ship. Unfortunately, while the acolyte was walking she lost a valuable rosary that held her sister's wishes to become a future cardinal who could support others. The acolyte searched for the rosary throughout the ship and finally managed to find it, but when she was just about to take it, a Kukre appeared and ate it. The kukre then fled with another group of Kukres into the shadows. Of course the acolyte decided to find that Kukre whom she considered the villain of her story, but it was nearly impossible because there were millions of them in the place constantly stealing objects from the ground. She decided to tell the truth to her sister (a powerful cardinal which was also an exorcist) and they decided to return to the ship to look for the rosary together. That day while her sister was trying to purify the ship with her Magnus Exorcismus, the acolyte reflected that perhaps the "evil" Kukre who ate her rosary had a family and was just trying to survive in a hostile environment, following its Kukre nature. It wasn’t his fault that was the reason for its existence, in fact the Kukres helped keep that ruined ship clean and it was part of a perfect balance, so the acolyte decided to stop her sister and explained her reasons why.

After listening to the sweet words of the acolyte, her sister the cardinal smiled and told her that she was proud that she respected the lives of the Kukres because they matter too. She was content enough because her wishes weren’t carried on the rosary but were already printed on the acolyte’s heart. When they were about to leave Sunken ship, a miracle occurred. A little thief who was listening to their conversation approached the acolyte and told her that while he was using his steal skill on one of the Kukres, he obtained a rosary by chance so he gave it to her and he walked away. The acolyte was so happy and made the decision to accompany the little thief to support him on his travel for a while as a thank you. She then said goodbye to her sister and left, taking with her the memories of her encounter with that new friend and the hope of a bright future in this beautiful world of ragnarok!

            Nagi narrowly dodged the Spore's furious headbutt. His backpack, weighted with countless small bottles of cherry-red medicine, didn't stop him from avoiding certain doom against the mushroom-shaped monster. With a yell, he plunged his dagger into the slobbering upper mouth of the round beast, and after a pang sigh, it collapsed to the ground.

 

           The novice brushed white, sharp quills from his eyes and scanned the grassy courtyard around him. Well over a dozen young men and women, clad in the same breastplate and simple backpack as him, scurried across the field dueling the seemingly endless waves of practice beasts. To his right, three of his peers tackled a giant grasshopper to the ground. An innocent, orange baby chick harnessed the power of fire, leaving a comrade sprawled on their back. Behind him, a girl scolded an overly eager adventurer for stealing her last needed kill to advance to the next phase of her training.

 

             “Is this what the outside world is going to be like?” Nagi mumbled to himself.

 

             “Oh no, it gets much better!” came a female voice from behind. She sounded like flowing water; cool, refreshing, but hiding who-knew-what underneath.

 

             She looked his age, perhaps slightly older. Long, blonde hair fell in lazily combed strands down her shoulders. Azure eyes reflecting the sun's warm rays blinked happily towards him. She stretched her gloved hand for his. All the while, her lips curved into a feline grin.

 

            “The name's Foxxie! Wanna join my party?” she asked.

 

            Nagi tilted his head but rolled with the sudden greeting nonetheless. “Nagi...and uh...sure?”

 

            She snorted. “Nagi? What a name...”

 

            He stroked the back of his head. “My parents were originally from Amatsu before leaving the continent, so...”

 

           “Yeah, yeah whatever. Judging from the dirt on your clothes and the cherry-scented stains covering your cuts, you must be close to moving on to the last phase of the exam. Let's find my sister and we'll wrap things up together.”

 

            He cleared his throat and nodded. “W-Which one is your sister?”

 

            Foxxie drew a deep breath, loud enough to give the approaching Fabre larva pause, then fired. “OH LILUIN? WHERE ART THOU?!”

 

            Nagi jumped. “You could have just set up a sign like a normal person.”

 

            No sooner after he said those words, a fair-skinned Novice with bouncing brown hair burst through the crowd of hopefuls. She clutched her dagger for dear life, and poured red viles over her head as quickly as possible; all a desperate attempt to maintain her stamina against the horde of dark, squeaking roaches chasing her across a distant bridge.

 

            “Ah, there she is!” said Foxxie. “And there's our last bit of battle experience to get out of this sorry halfway house.”

 

             Nagi shook his head. “Can we really take them?”

 

             Foxxie smirked. “That or die trying.”

 

            “Actually, the proctors are watching, so at worst they'll only let us fight until we pass ou-”

 

             A cloud of dust trailed Foxxie in her mad-dash for her screaming partner. Nagi cursed, and with little choice, followed. The two jumped over the potion-spamming damsel and sliced away at the never-ending group of bugs. Once replenished, Liluin joined her sister, and together their swinging blades dispatched the final monsters.

 

            Foxxie played an imaginary victory trumpet with her fingers. “We win!” she exclaimed.

 

            Liluin and Nagi sat side-by-side, breathing heavily. Eventually, their gazes met. His cheeks turned bright red instantly.

 

           “Thanks for your help,” said Liluin. “You'd make a great swordsman. Is that what you're going to apply for?”

 

           “I...uh...”

 

            Nagi fumbled over his words. Before he could complete his sentence, Foxxie appeared between the two of them.

 

           “Lilly, this is Egg-Nog. Egg-Nog, this is Lilly.”

 

           “Egg...” started Liluin.

 

           “...Nog?” he finished.

 

           Foxxie yanked both of them up by their collars. “I think that should be enough to impress those tight-wads in the office. C'mon, let's ditch this place and get our Adventurer Licenses!”

 

           The three walked with heads held high across the field for the large wooden door. After jumping over prostrated bodies and avoiding upsetting the remainder of the deadly wildlife, they stood before a spear-wielding gatekeeper. He spoke before they could.

 

            “Impressive,” he said. “I was about to call the rescue team, but you cleaned up great. Proceed.”

 

            He stepped to the side. Foxxie skipped ahead, throwing open the gate with firm palms. Nagi and Liluin followed, and their environment of beauty and bruises was exchanged for a dim, cool office space. Gone were people shouting for help and attempting to learn proper sitting techniques, and before them was a burly, bearded man sending hopefuls on their way with a flick of his wrist.

 

            Nagi smiled. His eyes brown eyes sparkled. “I made it,” he said to characters known only by him.

 

            Foxxie and Liluin looked at each other and smirked. “Egg-Nog? You good?” asked Foxxie.

 

            He nodded. “Never better.”

 

           “Egg-Nog?” started Liluin. “Why don't you meet with the Examiner first? If you hadn't joined us, we wouldn't even be here yet.”

 

            His cheeks gained new crimson, and he nodded. Heart aflutter, his boots clicked against the stone floor for the desk. His turn had come.

 

           “Name?”

 

           “Nagi.”

 

            Liluin whispered behind him. “I thought it was Egg-Nog?”

 

           “Nagi is just his street name,” Foxxie said back.

 

           “Oh.”

 

            Nagi ignored them. “I wish to take the final exam.”

 

            The giant beard smiled. “I'm glad to hear it. Many of you are so eager to rush into being Adventurers that you don't think twice about where you're even going! There's much opportunity out there, and my job is to help you. Let's get started!”

 

           Nagi nodded. The Examiner pulled a new worksheet and dipped his pen into the inkwell. “Just relax and answer the following questions. The first section is word association. Which means the most to you: Study, exercise, public service or violence?”

 

           “Uh...public service?”

 

           “Change or Conserve?”

 

           Nagi scratched his head. “Both have value, no?”

 

           “Celebrity or Prudence?”

 

           “I'm not much for the spotlight.”

 

           “Theory or Experience?”

 

           “Experience.”

 

            The test continued. Nagi stood like an awkward tree, shifting weight on his feet in an imaginary wind. All the while, the girls watched.

 

           “Next, here are some scenarios. Again, answer honestly. First, 'You don't mind exploring dangerous places'.”

 

            Nagi chuckled nervously. “It's part of the job, no?”

 

            “If you fell off a cliff, you'd feel like you were flying.”

 

            He paused. “Uh...no. I'd feel like I were about to die.”

 

            “You're given a task that would be easier if others assisted you. Would you handle it yourself, even if it was hard, or ask for help?”

 

             Giggles caught his ear behind him before he could open his mouth. He glanced at his newfound friends. “Ask friends for help, of course.”

 

            The Examiner's cheeks rose under his facial hair. He set aside the paperwork and compared it with the notes in a heavy, tea-stained tome. His meaty fingers flipped through the pages until he finally arrived at his desired location. Nagi and the others watched as placed a neatly folded violet tunic on the desk, as well as a small envelope labeled “Kafra”. On top of that was a small, yellow card with his name on it. The big man stamped it proudly with a green checkmark.

 

             “How did I do?” asked Nagi.

 

             “That all depends on what you were hoping for,” he said. “I can only guide you in the best direction according to this guide, but you, Master Nagi, need to shape your own future.”

 

             Unable to contain herself, Foxxie's head appeared on Nagi's right shoulder. “So, what'd you get?!”

 

             Liluin stepped to his left. “Is it Swordsman?” she asked with a soft smile.

 

             The Examiner flipped the test towards them. Nagi's eyes frantically went down the rows of answers, and compared it to the log the man had been using. Circled in bold were the results.

 

            “Of course,” said the Examiner, “It's your choice. You can go with the results, or choose your own path.”

 

             Nagi thought quietly, ignoring the growing line of hopeful heroes behind him. After a moment, he looked the trainer in the eye.

 

            “Nagi?” asked Liluin.

 

            “Well, Egg-Nog?” pressed Foxxie.

 

             The Novice saw the recommendation compiled from the journeys of those better traveled than himself. He closed his eyes and took a breath. What was in his heart danced with what was on the page. After a moment, his face met the Examiner's. When he answered, he slid the items on the desk towards him, plus a little something extra. With the flick of his wrist, a blue swirling gate opened.

 

             Before him was one world, a million possibilities.

Origin Story - Commander Wobbuffet

One day at the Army camp, Giovanni was appointing his new commander. When suddenly out of nowhere, Goofy Wobbuffet slipped and rolled in between and got pinned with the Commander clip. To hide his embarrassment, Giovanni went ahead with Wobbuffet being his new commander. And assigned Wobbuffet to lead his troops in Antarctica, where the newly appointed Commander Wobbuffet, being the only one, does not goof up anymore.

But he was wrong! Because Wobbuffet called all his Fire type friends and melted the whole Antarctica. Rising water levels in the world is not caused due to Global Warming but due to stupid Fire Pokémon party.

Now Commander Wobbuffet leads Team Rocket for his fight against evil in War of Empirium Training Edition. Join him in his holy war.

Entry Title: My PvE experience in iRO visualized
Category: Writing
RO Character Name: Edward EG
Server: Chaos
 

(P/S: Based on true story feat iRO wiki, weekly maintenances, Rodex issues. This is a long story but don’t worry, it doesn’t exceed 2000 words)

Spoiler

I was stranded on an island when my boat sank due to storm. Luckily few hours later, a ship came by, and I was saved by the crew who were on board. The ship was on its way to Izlude which is the main port for the Rune-Midgard Kingdom along with many people who wants to shift permanently over there to make a new fortune. The moose captain named Carroc who oversees the ship, offered me to follow and take the opportunity to become an adventurer just like everyone else as a purpose to get a fresh start since I have nothing left.

 

As we arrived in Izlude, the captain then guides me to Criatura academy. But before that, I was given a cloth to wear as a Novice just like everyone else who were on board. From the academy, I learned many things regarding status effect, stats, refining and job professions. Until I was given a choice on what I wanted to be. I love wielding a sword and took some quiz test which helped my decision to take a path of swordsmanship. Upon graduating from Criatura Academy, I was then greeted by an elf. She told me that I can get more guides from Eden Group – the place where adventurers can do bounty quests, teleportation services across the dungeons and also a place for people to trade their equipment and items. I went through taking these bounty boards and turn them in by reporting the missions to the people standing behind the boards as they gave me some experience rewards in return. There are also some missions that offers free equipments as a reward. Levelling as a swordman is fun and unique in a way that I can do damage to multiple enemies through the skill Magnum Break. However, I do find it consumes too much SP so I had to get supplies from a city. I was told that Prontera is a capital city that is filled with merchants. I then take a teleportation service from Aperture in Eden.

 

When I first arrived in Prontera, I was amazed that this place is filled with a lot of merchants. Some of them owned a cart that can sell lots of things while some who aren’t merchant class don’t. Prontera also have tool dealer shop, weapon shop, refine shop and even it has a great library called “The iRO wiki” where it stores all the knowledge contains in the kingdom of Rune-Midgard. There is also another huge building called RODEX which seems to be responsible delivering items to adventurers and those selling items without a cart gets an automatic zeny delivery if there’s any transaction happening.

 

I came across to a pub called “Discord”. This is a tavern where all adventurers gather and discuss together while enjoying snacks and drinks. At that moment, when I just entered inside there’s sudden announcement saying, “Please log out we are having maintenance soon”. I didn’t understand at first but a few moments later, my body just froze, and I passed out. Then after that I woke up to find out that everyone around me also just teleported in. Something was very wrong here! I asked people in the tavern about what happened. Then they told me it was Weekly Maintenance which the purpose is to cleanse the bugs that were sent by the Dark Lord from the dark universe without harming the adventurers in the real time. The Dark Lord have been defeated long ago but his spirit lives on to threaten the Rune Midgard Kingdom using bugs. These bugs usually caused adventurers not to be able to move, unable to teleport, error in RODEX transaction and much more. So, to counter this threat, an entity called GM was hired by the Rune Midgard Kingdom to defeat these bugs. At first, they use time freeze to the adventurers so that while they engage heavy battle against the bugs in other parallel universe that can cause massive destruction, they won’t harm the environment and adventurers in real time. This does make sense on how the kingdom of Rune Midgard was able to withstand the dark sorcery and didn’t end up like Glast Heim which were totally destroyed. Apparently, adventurers can also communicate with the GM if they ever discover an anomaly related to these bugs. In the Discord tavern, I continued asking questions regarding the opinion of what should be my next job. Many people suggested that I should go and take a path to knighthood because one the reason is that the job offers a lot of skills that does damage to multiple enemies.

 

After I continued my adventure fighting monsters around Geffen Fields, I was strong enough and decided to take the advice to become a Knight. The most advanced skill is Bowling Bash which is the powerful than Magnum Break. So, I levelled up in the area which there are a lot of monsters such as Sunken Ship and outside Juno. There are also bounty boards in most cities that offer to kill 150 monsters at a time. Eden group also offers Gramp Turn-ins for adventurers to level up but however, the monsters during that week fires ranged attack which is not suitable for me to go there.

 

Until I reached high level, I was able to travel to Glast Heim Churchyard where Dark Priest offer good Experience rewards and I was very lucky to get a Hunter Fly Card that is worth millions of zeny. As I lay my sword to unleash Bowling Bash to dark priests, suddenly I had a blue aura turned around me. I had a message from RODEX which directs me to go Juno Sage’s Castle where I need to rebirth. So, I went to the said place where I met with the sage named Metheus Sylphe. He said that I need to read the Book of Ymir where I was guided to meet a Valkyrie. She then transcends me into a powerful version of myself but reborn into High Novice. So, I did rebirth and back to zero again. Fortunately, since I know what I was doing from the start, I just need to re-do all the things that I have done again to level up. This time I have enough zeny to try out VIP features in Eden Group by using 3 magical stones to get the partial VIP features and I was able to do Overlook Water Dungeon quest which is helpful to level up faster. And then I returned to GH churchyard again whacking another bunch of Dark Priests for hours and then I got another blue aura with a RODEX message containing job change map. This time as a Lord Knight, the map guided me to start a quest to become a Rune Knight which is third job after being transcend.

 

As a Rune Knight, I had the opportunity to ride a Dragon! It wasn’t a flying Dragon unfortunately. The beast seems to be a Ferus – a ground type Dragon that were breed by Prontera Knights. It was cool to ride on that beast and it can do breathing fire or water.  Not only that, but Rune Knight has a lot of interesting skills such as using Runes to buff up special abilities. There is Wind Cutter and is suitable for two-hand sword which is what I’m using. I looked for an answer in Prontera’s iRO wiki library and found out that I would need to go to Mora by travelling to the New World to get an equipment to strengthen my Wind Cutter Skill. There was a Cat Hand agent in the Eden group that offers teleportation to new world of which I eventually was able to do Wandering Guardian Quest that allows me to purchase Peuz set for the wind cutter skill boost.

 

As I was on my journey to use kafra service. I was approached by Royal Errand Boy that sent me an invitation to Royal Banquet where I was able to discover this great story which leads me to Terra Gloria, Illusion and then Sage’s Legacy quest which rewards free equipment starting from Noblesse. There were a great number of quests where I was able to visit the memories of Illusion of Moonlight, Vampire, Underwater, Turtle Island and lots more which offers great amount of experience to level up. At some point in Eden, secretary Lime Evenor called my name and leads me to start Verus quest which offers a nice experience rewards from doing its daily quest.

 

As I made more research in the Prontera iRO wiki library, I was able to discover more levelling spots for higher levels. So I travelled to Abyss Glast Heim, Magma Dungeon 03, Einbech Mine 03, Ancient Odin Temple and Abyss Lake 04. As I have finished my tasks, I took advantage of using the Battle Manual X3 to turn in the experience rewards and for few days I finally obtained another aura! I have reached maximum level as a third job class. At that same time, Rune Midgard kingdom was about to receive a huge, surprising news to offer adventurers. The God Odin offers the kingdom to grant adventurers to experience Fourth jobs!

 

The Dark Lord was furious about this news thinking that it will threaten his notorious plan to conquer Rune Midgard. So, he decided to make an aggressive move by sending his great curse upon the city of Prontera. During the time after the GM completed their weekly maintenance, all sudden huge dark bugs came out of nowhere causing devastating fire blaze in the city of Prontera! This caused the RODEX building to catch fire and the items that were offered by the non-merchant classes were engulf in flames. They were burnt completely, and a lot of adventurers lost their items including mine as I have lost an armor that I want to sell. Luckily, the GMs managed to deal with the bugs but unfortunately, they were unable to recover all the lost items as they could not risk travel back in time or else they’ll violate the space time continuum which could cause another worst scenario.

 

Although, it has been a rough week but however the fourth jobs seem to be satisfying experience. I turned into Dragon Knight with the help from Oscar. With the new talent stats, I can deal much damage as the POW stats amplified the damage significantly and some of the ultimate skills which can only be activated after using AP gained from using more skiils. I talked to people in the Discord but some of them said that they are still comfortable of using 3^rd job skills because these new skills aren’t strong enough and they told me to wait for God Odin to re-balance these skills.

 

I then made my journey into Niflheim Dungeons, Rudus 04, Abandoned Lab Amicitia and then turn-in the experience rewards from these respective quests. However, levelling seems to get tough at this point. Just in a few months after that, there’s recent turn of event in Rachel and I was able to battle with the fake Goddess Freya in the Villa of Deception which currently I was at this point as I’m writing this story here.

 

Overall, it has been a pleasure travelling in this realm of Rune Midgard. I would love to invite my lost long friends to embark a journey here. I am hoping that somehow I can discover more secrets about the knowledge hidden in the Rune Midgard Kingdom.

I have but one wish,
to catch some fish.
I assemble my rod,
but I seek not Cod.
A cobweb, trunk and an iron,
I hope not to lure a Siren.

There is just one fish I want to get,
I want a Piranha in my net.
So I must venture to Glast Heim,
now I just need meat and some time.
I let out my cast,
and get a nibble so fast.
Behold the fisherman's might,
and the fish will bite.

On the line it will pull,

so I take it to school.
Teach it a lesson,

reel it in to be in my possession.

Does the sea grant my wish?
Nope, just a fresh fish. =(

Through the darkness, it wouldn't stop coming

 

Behind me, there were howls and screams

I cant believe this isn't a dream

 

There were the growls and clinking of chains

It's getting closer and making gains

 

My legs are spent and I kept slipping

Down, I went crashing and I see stars flashing

 

The spooks are coming, the spooks are coming

garbed in red mufflers, in the moonlit night, it fluttered

 

As it dawned on me, it raised it's claws

Oh horror oh horror, its teeth and jaws

 

Then at once, a great blast appeared

Intense heat and flames were sent everywhere

 

The spooks we charred and a great dragon roared

It took off with majestic strength and then it soared

 

With her spear held high, a top sat Drixel

Savior and protector, Valkyrian Pixel

“El Pacto de las Estrellas en Rune Midgard”

 

En las vastas tierras de Rune Midgard, donde los dioses y los monstruos se entrelazan, existía un gremio legendario conocido como “Los Buscadores de las Runas”. No eran simples aventureros, sino guardianes de los secretos arcanos que yacían bajo la superficie.

Su líder, Aeliana, era una hechicera con ojos de águila. Su bastón, tallado con runas ancestrales, resonaba con el poder de los elementos. Junto a ella, el ingeniero Thorne forjaba armaduras rúnicas que desafiaban la gravedad y espadas que cantaban en el viento.

Un día, encontraron un antiguo pergamino en una cripta olvidada. Decía: “En el corazón del Bosque de Yggdrasil, encontrarás el Portal de las Estrellas. Quien lo atraviese obtendrá un deseo, pero a un alto precio”. El gremio decidió emprender la búsqueda.

Navegaron por los campos de Prontera, sorteando los embates de los Kobolds y los Goblins. Llegaron al Bosque de Yggdrasil, donde los árboles susurraban secretos y las criaturas mágicas danzaban alrededor de los portales.

Aeliana fue la primera en cruzar. Se encontró en un mundo de luz etérea, donde las runas flotaban en el aire y las estrellas eran puertas a otros reinos. Pero el precio era claro: debía renunciar a su habilidad para lanzar hechizos de curación.

Thorne también cruzó. Descubrió una forja ancestral donde los enanos forjaban armas imbuidas con la esencia de los dioses. Su precio fue olvidar su habilidad para reparar armaduras y objetos.

El resto del gremio enfrentó decisiones igualmente difíciles. Al final, todos obtuvieron sus deseos, pero a un costo profundo. Aeliana miró las estrellas una última vez antes de cerrar el Portal de las Estrellas.

Los Buscadores de las Runas se dispersaron por Rune Midgard, llevando consigo sus secretos y sus renuncias. Pero en las noches más oscuras, cuando las runas brillan en el cielo, dicen que el gremio se reúne en sueños, recordando el pacto que hicieron con los dioses y las estrellas.

In the dimly lit catacombs beneath the orc stronghold of Orc Village, where the stench of ancient stone mingled with the musk of sweat and blood, a lone figure moved with silent purpose. Cloaked in shadows that seemed to embrace rather than conceal, Kael, the seasoned assassin, prowled the labyrinthine corridors with calculated precision. His target loomed ahead, a towering behemoth of muscle and fury known simply as Grommash, the orc hero. Clad in crude armor adorned with trophies of battles past, Grommash wielded a colossal axe that shimmered with runes of power, a testament to his prowess in combat and the fear he instilled in all who dared to challenge him. Kael's mission was clear: eliminate Grommash before he could rally the orc hordes for another devastating raid on nearby settlements. The assassin had honed his skills through years of training and countless contracts, but this assignment posed a challenge unlike any he had faced before. As he approached Grommash's chamber, Kael's heart quickened with a mix of anticipation and caution. He knew that one false move could mean certain death, yet the thrill of the hunt surged through his veins like a potent elixir. Silently slipping through the shadows, Kael positioned himself behind a massive pillar that overlooked the chamber where Grommash sat, his back to the entrance as he bellowed orders to his lieutenants in the guttural tongue of orcs. The assassin's keen eyes scanned the room, taking note of every detail, the flicker of torchlight reflecting off the orc hero's armor, the rhythmic rise and fall of his chest as he breathed. With a deft motion, Kael drew his twin daggers, crafted from the finest steel and enchanted with runes of stealth and lethality. He counted the heartbeats, timing his approach with the precision of a seasoned predator stalking its prey. As Grommash turned to issue another command, Kael sprang into action. Like a shadow given form, he darted across the chamber in a blur of motion, his blades slicing through the air with deadly intent. The orc hero's reflexes were swift, but Kael's speed was unmatched. Their clash was a dance of steel and fury, echoing through the chamber like a symphony of battle. Grommash swung his axe with brute force, each blow shaking the very foundation of the catacombs, while Kael countered with agile grace, weaving between strikes with uncanny agility. Blood flowed freely, painting the stone floor crimson as the two adversaries fought with relentless determination. Kael knew that victory hinged on exploiting Grommash's vulnerabilities, the gaps in his armor, the split-second hesitation before a strike. With a final, decisive thrust, Kael drove his dagger deep into Grommash's side, severing a vital artery. The orc hero roared in agony, staggering back as life ebbed from his massive frame. With a grim satisfaction, Kael withdrew his blade, watching as Grommash collapsed to the ground, defeated but defiant to the end. As the echoes of battle faded into silence, Kael stood victorious amidst the wreckage of his foe's domain. The orc hero had fallen, his reign of terror brought to an end by the blade of an assassin who moved in shadows and struck without mercy. With a solemn nod to the fallen warrior, Kael vanished into the darkness once more, leaving behind only whispers of his name, a legend among assassins, whispered in hushed tones by those who dared to cross paths with the shadows.

In this land of bliss, where the Porings roam

We lay in the fields, and call it our home

 

So young and innocent, we dance and sing

It's no surprise why it's always Spring

 

The birds do fly and the rabbits do run

We feel so free under this warmly sun

 

And as we play, we learn and grow

Meeting new friends, we say hello

 

With such excite, we love adventures

We trek and travel a many town centers

 

It's so fun to explore, through land and sea

it's no wonder, you cant disagree

 

In this land of bliss, we create much memories

Basking ourselves in endless times and reveries

 On a beautiful starry night

The stage shines so very bright

A dancer and bard standing tall

Ready to enthrall them all

Together with the melody he brings

A voice of an angel sings

An ensemble so unforgettable

Absentees find it regrettable

Her voice just like a Siren’s song

Enchanting her audience all night long

The tunes performed are so befitting of a king

You would think his guitar has magic strings

Their chorus so gentle like a kiss

A long night filled with bliss

One may wonder if it was a dream

A perfect pair, just like Jam and Cream

Once upon a time, there was the Funny Poring. He was so, so funny that he made a lot of monsters around him laugh at South Prontera, like the old Fabre, the little Lunatic or even the big Creamy!

But then, one day, it dawned on the Funny Poring:

- I don't find anything I do funny, so why does everybody laugh that much?

And thus, one day, he went to the community meeting of all South Prontera's monsters and, at the end of it, he asks everybody:

- Guys, I wanted to know, what do I do that makes you guys think I'm so funny?

And everybody answered in unison:

- It's the way you are, funny Poring! The way you do stuff and even speak, it's all funny!

-So wait, are you guys laughing AT ME, and not WITH ME?

And then, everybody replied:

-No, Funny Poring, we aren't making a fool out of you, don't worry! Just keep being yourself, it's what makes you being you! It's not a problem being funny by being yourself, you can feel proud and brighten everyone's day like that!

Those words went through the funny Poring's jelly heart and made him feel happy for being himself and having all those heartwarming friends around him... so he went home, slept like a baby and everybody lived happily ever after.

THE END.

Spoiler

There’s a new upcoming knight named Jack that’s always getting beaten up by wild monsters.

He works hard to get more experience in battle but he cant afford to bring lots of supplies during battle.

One day he encountered a plant that randomly recovers his wounds.

Its name is Geographer.
He always comes to Geo everytime he needs to recover and they actually become buddies.

Unfortunately Geo is immobile so Jack can only come to Geo when he needs to recover.

Sometimes he'll visit Geo to check on it.

One day there’s a big storm about to happen and Jack came
and made sure Geo would be ok and put some wooden supports around it.

Geo was very thankful once the storm was over.
They really became attached with each other.
And Jack said “I wish you can come with my journey and we will have a great time.”

After that Jack had to go for a long quest and he didnt have time to tell Geo about it.

Weeks had passed and Geo was wondering and concerned what happened to him.

Geo started to feel lonely, especially when it finally found somebody to care about.

Another week had passed and Jack was still nowhere to be found.

Seems like there’s another storm about to happen.

It’s starting to get dark because of the storm.

All of a sudden Jack showed up with a big pot backpack!

He worked hard to be able to buy this so he can be with Geo all the time.

He immediately and carefully transferred Geo to the pot.

Geo got emotional with happiness and started glowing.

A bright light started happening and Geo started to transform into a beautiful human form healer.

She said “I’ve been cursed to become an immobile plant because of my actions in the past.

And the only thing that can remove the curse is if I meet somebody that cared for me no matter who I am.
”
Ever since that day they never let go of each other and went on a journey together.

Entry Title: A Gypsy’s Adventures in Rune-Midgarts

Category: Writing

RO Character Name: Shimmer

Server: Chaos

 

Spoiler

 

On the sandy shores of Comodo, a Gypsy and a Minstrel were sharing a tearful farewell. The valiant Minstrel is leaving for Morroc to help fight the MVP monsters besieging the town.

 

“Here, take this,” said the Minstrel, placing a Romantic Flower on the Gypsy’s hand. “Every time you wear this, think of me. I will be back before you know it.”

 

And with those parting words the Minstrel walked away, playing a sad tune on his lute, an Impressive Riff that mingled with the sound of the waves lapping on the beach. The desolate Gypsy put the Romantic Flower on, lost in thought, and overcome with worry. Her only solace was the company of her sweet little pet, a Choco named Blossom.

 

Weeks passed. The Gypsy spent her days fishing for sharks and octopi in Comodo, and her nights performing on the Hula Dancing Stage. Still, nothing was heard from the missing Minstrel.

 

“Where could he be?” the Gypsy cried to herself. “I must go to Morroc to find him.”

 

Journey to Morroc

 

The Gypsy grabbed her Sea Witch’s Foot whip and her arrows, and said a prayer to Odin to bless her journey to Morroc. With Blossom in tow, she left the beach town and went on her way, passing through maps, and using an Arrow Vulcan to defend herself against monsters.

 

One day, she found herself lost in a map full of aggressive Orcs. Thankfully, a Biolo appeared, screaming “Cart Cannon!!” and dealing 300-million damage on the monsters. “What in the world? My damage is only 8,000 and I have no whip-based, area-of-effect (AOE) skills,” the Gypsy wondered.

 

“Sir, will you help me? I am lost and these monsters are trying to kill me,” she called out to the over-powered Biolo.

 

“My, my, what do we have here? A sexy Gypsy /slur,” said the Biolo. “Give me a kiss and do a little dance for me, and I will help you /rice.”

 

“I WOULD RATHER DIE!” shouted the Gypsy.

 

“Come on! I will even give you some free gears. How about that?” the Biolo winked.

 

“GET LOST! /pif” the Gypsy answered.

 

“Fine, suit yourself! If you change your mind, RODEX me or find me on Discord. R.I.P.” With that remark, the Biolo teleported away.

 

That night, unable to see in the dark, the Gypsy was surrounded and attacked by hundreds of Orcs. Injured and in pain yet still fighting, she found her pet lying on the ground bleeding. Even in the throes of death, the loyal Choco gave its mistress +3% long-ranged physical damage. 

 

“Nooooooo, Blossom, my baby!” the Gypsy exclaimed as she let out a rain of tears, which turned into a deadly volley of arrows that lashed down upon the Orcs.

 

“Severe Rainstorm!!”

 

Level Up

 

At last, an AOE skill! The Gypsy metamorphosed into a Wanderer, like a butterfly with green and ivory wings.

 

With fresh powers, the newly-minted Wanderer nursed her darling pet to health and continued her travels, bumping into a kindly Cardinal who guided her on the right direction to Sograt Desert. After a long and arduous journey, she finally arrived in Morroc, only to be told that her beloved Minstrel died in the siege of the desert town.

 

Heartbroken and distraught, the Wanderer ambled aimlessly across the kingdom for months on end, slaying monsters until she amassed enough experience to change into a Trouvere. Learning the song of Kvasir Sonata, she eventually gained independence, casting ensemble skills on her own. Yet, a certain Minstrel still haunts her dreams.

 

Legend of the Yellow Aura

 

One day, fingers aching yet hands empty after battling the Great Red Pepper, the Trouvere was having dinner in the kitchen of the Morroc Paradise Group Headquarters. A miniscule Swordswoman by the name of Elfette passed by, flitting in between tables, begging for meat and zeny. As the Trouvere fed her Choco some sustainably-sourced pet food, she overheard a conversation from a neighbouring table.

 

“Do you know of the Legend of the Yellow Aura?” a menacing-looking Abyss Chaser asked the Windhawk beside him, who shook her head no.

 

“They say that the bravest and the mightiest of all heroes will earn a yellow aura to mark their path – a badge of honour from Odin himself!” the Abyss Chaser continued.

 

The Bathory in the corner of the kitchen loudly chimed in, catching the attention of the rest of the room: “Eheeheehee! The Legend of the Yellow Aura is true! If you seek glory, you must vanquish thousands of monsters and lose your social life [ehem]. I can fly you to the dungeons of Nifflheim, where the most powerful monsters lie await!”

 

A Shadow Cross in the centre of the room jumped up from his table and bellowed, “I will go to Nifflheim’s Collapsed Opera House! Who wants to come with me?”

 

Blinded by glory – and, possibly, masochism (!) – the Trouvere immediately raised her hand.

 

“You! Trouvere over there, are you skilled at Mental Sensing?” the Shadow Cross asked. 

 

“Yes, sir!” answered the dutiful Trouvere. 

 

“Then you may join my party. And you, too, Elemental Master who can kill-steal everything on screen,” pointing at a surprised Elemental Master who quickly hid a tube of alcohol behind his back.

 

“Everyone else must register with the Adventurer Agency. Now, throw on your hideous 20th Anniversary Costume sets, get on the Bathory’s broom, and let’s go!” the Shadow Cross ordered.

 

The Trouvere, along with 11 other hopeful adventurers, tirelessly fought Grotes, Disguisers, Blue Moon Loli Ruris, and Pierrotzoists in pursuit of that elusive yellow aura which, to this day, remains out of reach. THE END

 

*Dedicated to my pets and to my Niff2 partymates
