[Open][Social] A Banquet For The People! [We Need Chefs!]

[Deleted]

It was a warm summer day; the sun was high and many people were out and about. Most of these people seemed a bit aimless and bored. It had been quite some time since The Apocalypse had trapped the players within Elder Tale, and everything found a status quo. Dumah Iino, an Adventurer known for his fierce perseverance and determination in adventure, had also found himself growing bored lately! "This is awful..." Dumah uttered to his daughter, a young brown haired adventurer who was secretly a Person of The Land. "Everyone is seeming to be in a rut lately..." Dumah held his chin in his hand, clearly pondering deeply. "What we need is something to spice things up... Something new... What we need is..." Dumah suddenly snapped his fingers. "An event! But what kind of event? Hmm..." He pondered more on the matter. "What could we do..." He thought back on other MMORPGs he had played before Elder Tale and thought of what kind of recurring events they did. "How about... A banquet! That would be quite nice! Everyone loves a banquet!" He smiled and got up. "Alette, I would need your help if we were to set something up. Do you think you would be up for it?" He smiled excitedly at his daughter, who returned the smile with just as much excitement.



The sun rose once again on the capital city of Londinium, and much like the beginning of the Apocalypse, Dumah had posted flyers all over town. "First Seasonal Londinium Public Banquet," the flyers were titled with large, bold text. Underneath the bold title was more. "Come enjoy plenty of delicious, hand-crafted foods and beverages in a formal environment! Hosted by Dumah Iino, Guild Master of Noihara, we hope to bring a bit of excitement and pleasure with an event of the players, by the players, for the players!" What followed was some basic information regarding where the event would be held, as well as how to contact Dumah. At the very bottom however was a small foot note. "We are always looking for people to help ensure that this event is a resounding success. Whether you can cook, perform, or wait on tables, please contact Dumah Iino."

Summer had once been a time of practices, workouts, and free time back in the old world. Thibault usually spent most of the summer prepping for the next Rugby season and hanging out around her city with her friends. Now, of course, it's different. These days Thibault's schedule had been thrown completely out of whack--not that it particularly troubled her. She'd been having an immense amount of fun traveling out and seeing the fantastic new sights and fighting monsters. Monsters! Things that she could beat up guilt-free and get paid for it!

Yet she felt the general dull sensation in the air. People were skulking in corners and streets, seemingly having lost any drive to do anything but continue their existence. It was a pitiful, sad thing. Thibault felt the immense urge to shake and shout at them that the wonders of the world were available to them--but they were missing out on all of it.

When she found the poster for the banquet, she felt an odd stirring of surprise. Someone wanted to bring life back to the city though an event. It sounded fun, but would anyone actually get off of their asses and join in? She wasn't entirely sure.

"Might as well get in front and start doin' something," she mutters to herself. She pulled out a paper and began to scrawl upon it, giving it to the next messenger she saw. The message reads:

The name's Thibault. Heard you're looking for people to help out. I'm only a level 1 Brewer, but if you can get someone to teach me the hell I'm doing, I can help out. If not, I can always be security.

Thibault
