After traveling alone for a little while, Cam-Cam discovered a field of boars that was left untouched by players. It was just sheer coincidence that he discovered what would possibly be one of the best grinding spots during beta testing. However, the amount of boars intimidated him as he took a step back feeling threatened by their presence. His knees were trembling and a drop of sweat trailed down his forehead.
That's a lot of pigs...I don't think I will be able to kill them all if they are grouped together like that...but I need their pelts! Ugh...think Evan...think...Evan shook his head trying to shake off the fear and recompose himself. He unsheathed his sword and raised it up in the sky, letting the sunlight shine upon it in heroic manner. He was pretty much doing a modified Captain Morgan pose.
"I am not Evan anymore! I am Cam-Cam! The slayer of boars! I refuse to let fear be the death of me! I will do what it takes to get my hat!...Oh and get out of this game!.." He compassionately shouted into the sky. All of his negativity was turned into positives feelings, but he was most likely biting off more than he can chew. At his skill level, taking on so many boars was just suicide with a low rate of succession...unless of course he attacks them one at a time without aggroing multiple boars that may be nearby. Apparently, luck was on his side, considering he found one of the sweetest grind spots just from aimlessly wandering around the first floor. All it takes is one contact with a nearby beta tester to ruin his fun...or an invite he received from some stranger he never even met.
Just when Cam-Cam was about to charge at the boars, he took one step forward before he got a notification from a player who wishes to party up.
"Eh?..." Cam-Cam blinked in confusion as he opened up the menu to check his messages now. He carefully read it to himself quietly and smiled with joy!
"I don't have to be alone after all! I'll just accept it and-" He paused after realizing what he had just done. When he raised up his finger to click 'accept', he accidentally pressed 'decline' instead. The expression on his face was priceless, he had a sour look on his face and his skin pigmentation turned white as a ghost. His head slumped down with his finger twitching in disgrace.
"No...that was...stupid of me..." He muttered to himself. In the moment of silence, a gentle breeze blew from the north and shifted Cam-Cam's luck just like that. At least he still had his boar friends...
"Wait a minute!" He exclaimed raising his head up and returned to his normal skin color. After rereading the message, Cam-Cam realized he could use the map to navigate his way back to the starting city. He was once again filled with joy and excitement knowing he has not failed just yet! As soon as he turned around, he stuck his butt out shaking it at the boars taunting them.
"I will slay you all later when I'm strong enough! So long suckers!" He taunted and quickly took off following his map to the precise location of the meet up. Along the way, he would take advantage of opportunities of slaying solo boars roaming around his path to get some decent experience and drops. There was not much to go on as he only ran into three boars, yet they were enough to delay him from getting to the meeting point than most people. He wondered what kind of players he was going to befriend with, he imagined someone nice...then he imagined that nice person with a head full of food...then he imagined himself eating that person and while he was eating them, he thought about ponies.
