Re: Adventurer's Forest Chapter 2: Herb Village
You guys gotta tell me who's here.
As #2403 looks around for something to kill, he is met by a very purple woman with pointy ears. As she stops in front of him, she greets him and introduces herself as Yami-Chan. She apparently was a good friend of the Unnamed Adventurers of Legend, and often aided them in their adventurers.
#2403 tells her that it has been about 100 years since then, and asks her how she can still be so young.
Yami-Chan replies, "That is an excellent question. I am an Elf, part of a small race. The Elves are graceful, swift beings that live for much longer than humans. We also have cute pointy ears!"
#2403 asks why she has come to him.
"Well, I heard there was a new group of adventurers around, and I wanted to greet them!"
#2403 comments that they aren't new to adventuring, they actually were alive 100 years ag-
Yami-Chan shushes him. In a low voice, she says to him, "Be careful. Saying this to the wrong people may cause trouble. Best to keep it to yourself."
Yami-Chan, with a lighter tone, then hands him five gift-wrapped boxes. "Merry Christmas," she says. #2403 unwraps one of them, and looks at it. It is a strange black piece of glass. No, wait- it's not black. It's more like...nothing. Like an empty area of space.
It's an odd feeling.
Yami-Chan speaks up. "Those are Doors of Dimension. If you pour your soul into them, you will go to a special place. It is up to you to determine what that place truly is."
#2403 promises that he will give the others to his fellow Adventurers, and then Yami-Chan says her farewells. She strides gracefully away from him.
