[center][h1]Saying Good Bye[/h1][/center] John Clarke..or, Masrith sat at the height of a small hilltop. He gazed upon the artificial sunset that he had become accustomed to loving. He was not alone at the time. Another player sat with him as the gazed outward. [color=turquoise] I can't believe it's all going to end. It's been a long time since we started.[/color] His friend nodded in agreement. Masrith looked toward his friend. [color=turquoise]I understand you have a meeting early tomorrow so I understand if log out now. I'm glad you stopped by though. It was nice to have it all end here...where it all began. I hope we will meet again in another virtual world.[/color] His friend waved goodbye before logging out. Masrith was alone on the hilltop where he had first began his journey. He was glad to end it all in that same spot. Masrith watched as the timer counted down. He closed his eyes and waited with smile. [color=turquoise]Good bye YGGDRASIL. It was fun while it lasted.[/color] Those were his last words before a blinding flash of light emitted infront of him. [center][h1]A New Journey In A New World[/h1][/center] Masrith lifted his left hand to his eyes to help dim the bright light that flashed in his face. As the light faded, Masrith lowered his hand from his face. [color=turquoise]Why am I cold?[/color] He wondered before opening his eyes. For Masrith to find himself on top of a snowy mountain was more than surprising. [color=turquoise]What the?[/color] He mumbled to himself as he looked around. Masrith crossed his arms and huddled his posture. This feeling wasn't normal. It felt like he was actually freezing. He moved his hands around to no avail. [color=turquoise]Why can't I call the a gm? I can't get my console up. I can't even pull up a map, what the hell is going on?[/color] Masrith continued to look around in shock. He wasn't sure what was going on and had no idea on how to grasp the situation. [color=turquoise]All I know is in freezing. I need to get out of this now.[/color] With that being said, Masrith gave himself a goal to get on the right track. Masrith began to slowly work his way to the base of the mountain. Being at the top of the mountain made the winds and snow more brutal than he desired. Masrith lifted his left hand to help shield his face from the wind. The cold winds continued to slow Masrith down. His feet dragged in the snow as he slowly made his way down. He held his robes tightly and held them close to his chest to wrap up and preserve his body heat as much as possible. His teeth began to chatter. [color=turquoise]D-D-D-Dammit. I refuse to freeze like this.[/color] Masrith ended up coming to steep side of a cliff. [color=turquoise]I have no other choice, I need to get down quick before I freeze.[/color] Masrith to a leap of faith off the cliff and began to slide down the mountain side. He lifted his left hand and dug his dragon-like claws into the side to help control his descent. He was doing fine until he lost traction and slipped. He tumbled down until falling into a pit of snow to soften his fall. The winds weren't nearly as bad but he was still freezing. He looked around to see a on opening. [color=turquoise]I shouldn't be out in the open in this cold. I'm not going to be able to keep going at this rate.[/color] Masrith followed the base of the mountain. He eventually came across a small cave. He slowly made his way inside. He looked around but saw nothing. [color=turquoise]I can see? But there isn't any light. How is that possible?[/color] Masrith lifted his hand to see claws. He was shocked. [color=turquoise]Wait. Im..my character?[/color] He was so focused on not freezing that he hardly had time to notice. Masrith sat down and huddled for warmth. [color=turquoise]Wait. If I'm my character then I might be able to-.[/color] he lifted his hand outward and simply hoped. [color=turquoise]Fire bolt.[/color] Fire raged from his hand and onto the cavern floor. The fire stayed there and continued to burn. [color=turquoise]Well atleast now I won't freeze to death.[/color] It was a lot to take in. The magic would have been helpful much earlier but he was so focused on survival that he hardly had time to think about it. The fires glow was bright and anyone near by would be able to see the light illuminating from the cave.
