First, there was that key from Fort Ghelsba. We got it! We’re so close to Kazham, I can almost see it~! Although it really wasn’t that easy, considering. I mean, everything there feels kinda weak now, but it was still something, storming a fort full of orcs. And then they didn’t carry keys. Yeesh. We fiiiiiiiinally managed to get one after going really deep in.
But the most important thing is that we have them now. One more to go!
Meanwhile, we had other things to do, too. Actually, they were all kinda… at the same place, it was weird. Sometimes, I wonder if Lady Luck – or, uh, Altana – really likes us or something. Or really hates us, because we keep getting thiiiiiiis close to getting killed.
So! Three things!
First, there was that old guy who made me a squire. He wanted to give us another test this time. Something about a riddle. Jenare seemed to know where he was going, though, so we ended up running around the city a bit. And then we got another riddle, and even Jenare didn’t know anymore.
And then he received a mission, so of course he had to go get the briefing. And it turned out we were – well, he was – to go to Davoi to get a report from someone.
And then! Well, actually, this wasn’t exactly after. I mean, it’s not like I was sitting around twiddling my thumbs while Jenare was getting his mission, right? So, so, I ended up finding out about an old woman whose cough could only be cured with a medicine made out of a special moss from Davoi.
Yeeep, Davoi again. When I heard about Jenare’s mission, well, it was like killing two birds with one stone!
Three birds, actually.
Because, apparently, that was where that old dude’s riddle led, after all!
So first, we got his report.
Then we found an old well with some weird sword in it to take back to prove we solved the riddle. These elvaan, sheesh. Why couldn’t we have just said the answer instead of nearly getting killed?
Speaking of which, we really did nearly get killed grabbing that moss.
But then again, “nearly getting killed” is kinda obligatory in adventuring nowadays, it seemed.
Oh, and we got made knights. Whoopedeedo. That took long enough. Why am I a knight of San d’Oria, anyway?
At least that old lady feels better now, I guess.
