The Girl in the field [open]

[Taonna]

Taonna lay in an open field of tall grass and and flowers, she was hard to see due to this save for the fact that her staff was jammed in to the ground next to her. She was sleeping peacefully in the light wind and sun. Around her the world moved much the same as the real world, the grass rustling in the wind. If any of this bothered her it didn't show on her face that looked at peace for the moment. The sun was starting to set and the world growing ever darker around her as she continued to lay in the field completely oblivious to the darkening world around her. As she was enjoying the last few rays of sunlight on her skin as she slept, clouds began to creep over head causing the sky to grow even darker in the waning hours of light. As it began to lightly sprinkling out Taonna showed no signs of waking she instead curled in to a tighter ball for the warmth of the sun had been replaced by the chill of the slight rain. She had been having pleasant dreams of the future and growing stronger with allies she had yet to meet, but as she grew colder in the rain her dreams began to drift closer towards nightmares of those she was growing stronger with leaving her. She began to shiver in the slight chill of the on setting nightfall, but she managed to shake of the nightmare and was drifting in thought of how she could become stronger as she slept.

As she lay shivering in the light evening rain, a small breeze picked up cooling her wet skin as she lay in the grass. As her skin itself began to grow colder she sneezed lightly while the sneeze wasn't large enough to wake her it did disturb the relative peace around her. A rabbit that was near by took off away from her as the sudden sneeze startled it. At which point she sneezed again, a bit harder this time just enough to awaken her from her slumber. Upon waking she sat up yawning, and stretching out her aching body, still not fully aware of the world around her.As she becomes aware of the weather she mutters a few curses under her breath and shakes some of the wetness out of her hair, not that it does any good. Then in a soft voice "Magic Light" the magic takes but a moment to form in to a bundle of firefly-like lights "Much Better, at least I can see now." She stands and stretches out her back a bit some light popping could be heard but she didn't care, Well I guess I better get out of the rain at the very least." With that she collects her things, yanking the staff out of the ground, and starts walking toward the exit of the park area. Once she gets out of the park she turns and heads toward the nearest library that she can remember to find something new to read or to look at some maps and see about making her own. After a few more minutes she arrives at the library and enters it through the large double doors, once in side she does her best to dry off before proceeding to the information desk. Where she asks about where she can find the most current maps and information about the land, the cleric quickly points her toward northeastern corner and tells her that that is where the information she is looking for is at. After digging around in the books and scrolls she find a bunch of them and spreads them out of a table to look over them and see if there is anything useful to learn.

It was raining outside, the rain shattering the peace of the world with every drop of the puttering pattering that it did. The same drops of rain that pulled him out of the reminiscent lightheadedness that was the norm of his day to day routine. Dressed in the black shihokushō and hakama pants he all but rested against a cozy chair with his feet brought up to his chest with a rather scrupulous gaze about himself in this manner. His eyes narrowed onwards while only gazing about with the book in his hands. Reading brought a peace to himself, a peace he had never had in that old life of his, yet here it was.

He never understood what changed, the very remnants of the old life slowly making their way to being forgotten while the new life retained and built itself up more, he could already no longer tell a difference between the two. His eyes gazing at his book while reading through it over the many lines of some old forgotten language yet slowly he was getting the hang of it. It was not Latin, or at least he was certain it wasn’t. It appeared more like Sanskrit than anything else and that was the odd thing. How could a video game coordinate and possess all of Sanskrit’s letters and alphabets.

It was amazing to him, all save for the fact he could never possibly hope to achieve the understanding that these things possessed yet here he was still reading away trying to. In all honesty he was looking it over and imagining an epic battle in his head while it was going on, truly magnificent. A smile to his lips as he brought the book down and let his eyes rest away from the pages for the moment. A hearty breath leaving his lips before looking over and seeing someone looking through the maps, indeed someone he had never seen before here in the library.

He couldn’t quite tell what was with her, trying to look over maps and the like but then again he wasn’t one to judge. He probably would as well if he had any real talent for adventuring like a lot of those individuals out there seemed to have. He only cared about passing the time mostly, doing what he could to help people clear out places and such but outside of that he didn’t bother with it too much. A simple look at her and with a lift of one hand away from his book with a wave he said, “Hello there.” It was a simple greeting, nothing too big or creepy going by it in the moments awareness.

Taonna hadn't noticed the man that had probably been sitting there longer than she had been out of the rain, while she was gathering books and maps. She had failed to notice his presence entirely so when he spoke up to say hello she let out a startled yelp. While it wouldn't have been a big deal when she yelped she jerked her body around toward the sound with out really thinking, sending maps and books skittering across the table and on to the floor in several directions. For a moment she just looks at him in sort of a dazed state before shaking her head a bit and bringing her senses back to her. "S...s..sorry! I didn't even notice you were there!." She sort of stutters at first but quickly recovers. "Yes hello, there" She turns back to the table finally noticing the wanton dishevelment her turn had caused, She muttered a few curses under her breath at this before setting to pick the books and maps back up and reorganize them on the table. As she is doing so she glaces at the status screen looking at some of the info of the man that just startled her. She couldn't help but notice but mumble "odd" as she looked over his classes, she had never seen someone run anything that didn't have a sense of synergy at least not one she could see. Once she finishes picking up all the books and maps returning them to the table she turns to address him. "Good evening Ryosuke, I am Taonna" She holds out a hand for him to shake. "Pleased to meet you."

He was left unnoticed for quite a while before taking in a site of complete comical amusement that brightened his day to such ends it was unreal. His eyes watching as she had spun around but that wasn’t the most comical part, no it was the effect of her turn that did the trick. Maps, books, pamphlets, utensils, and more all just going hay wire everywhere with such a spin of the heel. He couldn’t hold in his laughter for very long, a chuckle slipping past his lips before she finally responded quickly as if nothing had actually happened. Indeed a swift recovery on her part as she spoke in a delightful tone to his ears before he heard her mumble something small but too soft for him to actually listen appropriately to what she said. Needlessly he did take part in helping her with her stuff that was flung everywhere.

A messy workplace was a definite sign of terrible things awaiting to happen, he knew this well enough and was prepared to help her at least straighten up whatever she was working on. Once the two had the books, maps, and other things put accordingly to where she needed them he took her hand into his for the shake she offered while taking in the strange name she held. It was one he had little knowledge of, but then again maybe it had to do with whatever she wanted as her knowledge here in this world. Whatever the case he didn’t judge about that. “The pleasure is mine Taonna-chan. Needless to say I don’t see very many people in here at this hour, let alone gazing at maps and books of the like. Are you trying to catch up on the lore of this place or just trying to find the best place to farm some mobs?”

"Something like that, I wanted to learn more about both this world and its geography and how it is different from ours. That being said I also wanted to try and make a copy of the map but that isn't as easy as it sounds even for me with the scribe subclass." she sighs a bit and drops back in to her chair. "It's a bit frustrating but until I gain some levels and some money, I'm not the most useful person, but I mean this did start out as a game" she takes a moment to rub her temples a bit before continuing "As for the late hour, It would have been later had the rain not started and woken me up. I was sleeping out in the park, in a way I guess I picked the right class for that at least." As she mentions class she does give him an odd look as if still trying to figure him out. "I'm curious as to why you picked the classes you did, there doesn't seem to be any synergy to them." she sorts some of the papers around and looks like she wants to write something down before realizing she doesn't actually have a notebook or pad to write in yet. "I really need to get some new equipment, at least something to write in and with." She kind of mumbles this to her self not meaning for it to be heard but not exactly hiding it well either. She takes a quick look around seeing if she had missed anyone else's presence not wanting to get startled again. "I do apologize if I bothered your reading."

‘Suke studied the maps a bit of what she was saying as he soon watched her drop back into a chair before listening the usual woes most of the newest adventurers, himself included, had to face in such moments. Indeed they were a bit of something that rattled on the parade as he tapped his chin in thought over such a situation. It soon came to be about the weather outside and he finding out she slept in the park just prior to the rain. Something about her being the right class for it had him curious before finding her asking him a question as he blinked about it. She spoke of needing new equipment and then an apology following it as he only shook his head with a usual smile to his lips. He waved a hand back and forth in front of his face as he waved such worries aside.

“You needn’t worry about my unnecessary needs to read, this ol’ book is nothing more than the grimoire most heretics have. I just find pretending to read it calm me more often than not. As for that question of yours of why I chose the classes I did. Well I chose woodcrafter because from a simple thought that many would never actually venture down such a path so I figured it might be needed, as for the gunner and heretic. Well I was a soldier in the old world so having some knowledge about guns help me out in that end while the heretic was just something fitting my mood of when I joined this bit of hellish paradise.” Indeed, his ex-love leaving him when he just returned from war made it hard on him but at least in here he didn’t have to worry about such a betrayal for the most part.

Setting the book down a bit he looked at her and slowly contemplated a moment for what the possibilities held in such a circumstance as this. He then thought about it a bit more and held up a finger, “Have you tried to go to other scribes that may have made paper or have extra paper? Maybe that’d help.”
