Life in the Guild - 15

[h1][b]Hello Hunters [/b][/h1] I’m in somewhat of a hurry today, some suspicious peasants have been poking around me with their pitchforks lately and it’s just a matter of time before they catch up to me again. Luckily for occasions like this, which happen at least once every [strike][b]day[/b][/strike] decade, I have developed a magic ability that lets me pass short distances quite rapidly. How could I call myself a gracious and caring Guildmaster if I didn’t pass down this knowledge to my guild members. So witness as Tok moves with ease, now if only he understood that he needs to pick up vegetables and various animals from the farms while doing so… [img]https://i.imgur.com/6WUQ4TI.gif[/img] Luckily, I have come across a fellow that seems to understand my intentions much better than any of the previous guild members. His name is Agobhar Delish and according to him he comes from the Great Royal Family of Delishtan. A country that nobody, including me, knew existed before listening to the wonderful story about it for a mere gold coin. I must admit that this fellow, who prefers to be called Ago, seems to have a knack for business. He got a coin out of even me and three from Tok because he fell asleep two times and naturally telling the story again requires quite the effort and gold. [img]https://i.imgur.com/Ltr3qfm.gif[/img] Of course I sold him the sleeping potions that helped ease Tok into sleep for merely five gold coins, so in the end I still made a profit. Ago may refer to himself as a small time gentleman but I myself am a complete one. [img]https://i.imgur.com/ccSlBZo.gif[/img] Speaking of gentlemen, the way I met Ago was quite interesting since, the moment I saw him I felt like I was seeing my young self, back in the day. On that rainy evening I was standing atop a beast I’ve just slain, the taste of victory was fresh in my mouth and I felt like I was ready to take on another horde of those things. While I was gazing at my enemies I felt the fear creep up their spines and they soon turned tails and ran far-far away. This is how I managed to chase away some stray dogs that wanted to grab a bite of the chicken wings I just stole, when I was out playing in the slums one day, during my youthful days. [img]https://i.imgur.com/m457uSR.gif[/img] It's quite wonderful that I could come across four very different people who still have something in common, at least in my eyes. What’s more all of them seem highly capable and fit perfectly into the Guild it’s as if there was a higher power guiding them to me, not that any such thing could influence me! [img]https://i.imgur.com/iNPSGvK.gif[/img] What can influence me is gold, riches, trinkets or any other valuables and I’m not alone in this world that understands true power comes not from within but from your purse, or something like that. Anyhow, there are some long dead spirits who roam the lands in search of their buried treasure and if you manage to track them down you may as well help them find it, if you catch my meaning. Listen to Zela’s explanation if you are interested! [img]https://i.imgur.com/STdbKH4.png[/img] While I’m relaxing, which [strike][b]always[/b][/strike] rarely happens, I enjoy watching how the world around us behaves, like those idiotic bugs that fly into something every second or so. It is truly amusing, for sometimes they can lead you to interesting places if you are patient enough. [img]https://i.imgur.com/sRrPKTU.gif[/img] Patience is seldom left unrewarded, it’s enough to take a look at Tok who has successfully mastered slashing with great axes. Now he can rip most zombies in half with only one of his swings. [img]https://i.imgur.com/rj7tijU.gif[/img] His journey to this state was by no means easy, I have asked the artisans to record his progress so that I could use it to motivate new guild members, when they feel that swinging once more is too hard. [img]https://i.imgur.com/AUtohol.gif[/img] Motivation, patience and practice. As a Guildmaster I truly understand how important these are for all members. However, those who rise above others not only understand these mantras but use them to their advantage. Take for example Eris who was not so amused by paying one gold coin for Ago’s story. So the next day during the morning practice she used an interesting hex, that I absolutely don’t know where she learned from for merely five coins, to make running a little bit more challenging for Ago. [img]https://i.imgur.com/1Si8Eia.gif[/img] I hope now you understand why it is important to not just practice but to use these mantras as well. The artisans could tell you a lot more about this as well, but they prefer that their work speaks for them so you can take a [url=https://youtu.be/B9Ezt-asN_U]look at the fashion choices of Ago[/url] or [url=https://youtu.be/jxwE5nxARUc]some magic conjuration[/url]. No matter what you choose, you shouldn’t be too disappointed. And I’m really sorry to disappoint but it seems that the peasants have caught up to me once more, so please excuse me! [i]This fool, I never would’ve thought that a man with such power and so little sense of duty existed. The fact that he uses a combination of at least three long lost movement techniques to steal cabbages from peasants and to arrive at the loo on time tells you all you need to know. No matter, for you are here to help me and now four others as well! It was difficult but I managed to manipulate this stubborn being to recall a certain fond memory of his when he encountered those who I deemed worthy of taking on our mission. Together we may yet prevail in finding the one pulling the strings, however now I need to go for this Guildmaster of yours is no easy thing to fool and he grows ever suspicious. Know that I’m here and I’m watching![/i]
