I have to say, intriguing I decided to join this roleplay and I have already a little something to join with. My character and she's a mage by the way. It's pretty intriguing in how long it took to create this profile, only 8 hours in total. (8 hours ago to now) I'm back in making profiles again.

Birthdate:
June 21

Physical Description:

The tradition of the von Hammerwhirl family is long and deep within everything they wear and how pretty they must be for the women in the family. Louise is standing at five foot and six inches and weighs 130 lbs, her body frame is a bit more robust and beautiful looking in terms of an hourglass shape. She looks a bit stronger since its mostly because of the rigorous training tradition of the family in most things. Her silver eyes always have a burning fire within them that has never dimmed but only became brighter after being freed of the tradition. Louise’s hair is the most unique thing about her, which is because it can catch a lit and look as if it is on fire, when it is actually fire. It is vibrant and it’s color is red, which normally when it isn’t catch a lit by the change of oxygen in the room or if she gets into a heated conversation that usually causes the room to heat up as well.

Louise has a tattoo brand on her back, which is called the Firebringer. It is a tattoo showing what she did to cause her to become the disowned from her family, it is an image of a home burning down with wicked flames attached to said house. This is a way for the von Hammerwhirl family to never forget or never forgive what Louise has done. She wears mage gear, which was handcrafted by her own family to painstakingly decrease the intensity of the flames. They sprout from her new clothes since they are an insulator for said uncontrollable magics she wields. The Necklace around her necklace does the opposite of what other magical stones do instead of allowing the flames and fires to writhe and go out of control. It absorbs the magic fire before it is able to escape and damage the surrounding lands or buildings.

She wields a specific fire staff, which the von Hammerwhirl family knows much about it is called the Goreflame Staff. It was very fitting for her since its based around what she wanted the most freedom and the staff wanted it too. The Staff is very creepy in how it can speak to her and other people as if it is a living magical weapon. Louise has a highly deep understanding of certain things rather than others, however, the freedom she feels now than she did is breathtaking. It’s in how she walks, which is different to how she walked or ran before it’s like she was running from the tradition and now she runs because she can and will to whatever she’ll get.

Louise has a necklace around her neck that’s in a bow-shaped look since its her mother’s handcrafted silver necklace, which she got after her being disowned. It’s one of the important items in her whole world since her mother still truly loves her but has to act cruel and mean since her father would probably do the same to her.

Important Items:

• The Goreflame Staff
  
  The entire staff is made up of Obsidian, which is why it is black with fire spouting from its top. It gave everyone in the von Hammerwhirl a fright every time it speaks as a mother and her two children. The only person that wasn’t afraid of the staff, which was Louise since it is a flame staff. She enjoyed speaking to a staff that sounds like a mother and two children that were brutally sacrificed in creating this staff for a powerful fire mage. In terms of what it does, other than the creepy voices coming from the staff itself.
  
  It can empower one spell within Louise’s Arsenal to be more much more controllable than her magic usually is, since it is as wild as her. It takes a day for it to recharge its ability to empower a single spell within Louise’s arsenal to make it more direct towards a more defensive than offensive spell. The oddity of these transforming offensive spells into defensive is because of the souls within the Staff trying to protect their wielder in anyway possible.
• The Bow-Shaped Necklace of Opposites
  
  The Bow-Shaped Necklace of Opposites is a highly unique pendant necklace, which its bow-shaped pendant opens up showing her mother Raina and herself on the other side. It’s mostly telling her that no matter what Raina will always be her mother even though the head of the family outright disallows it, which is her father Steven. Her mother is still wielding her favorite bow in the picture and would rather die than see her own child killed by Steven for basically being a mage.
• Louise’s Journal
  
  Louise has always kept a journal to record things that she wishes to keep from people but its pretty obvious her childhood wasn’t that fun compared to what she’s doing now. She has never regretted for what she did to her family’s home because of the fact it was needed to show her father some humility. However, it made her definitely afraid of him since he was justified in his 100% stance in killing her ever since Louise was found out to be a Mage. The Journal has the von Hammerwhirl coat of arms on the back of it.
• Gold Pouch

---

Starting Faction:

Alhryt-Liu Trade & Lending Company

Louise joined the Alhryt-Liu Trade & Lending Company, which she could get away from her blatantly highly ridged family’s traditions. It’s primarily because her entire family outright disowned her for what she did before she went to join the company. She is a message runner for the company about escaped slaves, which is basically a general laborer job. The Company themselves don’t care about the fact she is a mage.

Spell List:

• The Will of Fire
  
  The Will of Fire is basically an effected by her mood, which if she ever gets into an agrument that makes her extremely angry. It causes her flames that sprout off her body, clothes to start moving to do something a bit more dangerous than usual, which is basically arson. She lost control of what she basically is and caused her childhood home to burn down.
  
  Empowered Effect: This changes the Will of Fire from a highly dangerous burn everything down type spell into a fire shield, which wraps gently around Louise protecting her from anything that is easily burned if it is shot directly at her. The empowered effect is from the Goreflame Staff. You have to say, ’Please Goreflame Staff shield me from the projectiles of the people who would harm me.’
• The Rain of Fire
  
  The Rain of Fire is basically a spell that she casts to effect a large area in front of her, which constantly pelts the area with fire balls that rain from the skies. It’s damage differs when its against nature or against people, when it faces nature its pretty much highly destructive. While the people will usually only have third degree burns unless they are healed by a person taught in advanced medicines and cures of the time.
  
  Empowered Effect: This changes the Rain of Fire into the Wall of Fire, which causes it to rise from the ground in a definite wall shape in front of her. It’s a protective barrier against anyone stupid enough to try to charge at her without thinking ahead and it protects her from arrows and bolts too. The empowered effect is from the Goreflame Staff. You have to say, ‘Please Goreflame Staff wall off these intruders from my sight so I don’t have to look at them anymore.’
• The Elemental of Fire
  
  The Elemental of Fire is a powerful fire spell, which she learned from the Goreflame Staff. It allows her to control a single fire elemental as long as she’s able to keep calm and collected. The Elemental has two primary forms of attacking, which are the use of fireballs or a flame whip in keeping people in line with whoever is required to stay in line. The elemental looks like a 31 year old woman in size and height but has bluish green pulsing eyes while staring at people. It talks similarly as the older soul within the Goreflame Staff.
  
  Empowered Effect: This changes the Elemental of Fire into the Aura of Fire, which causes Louise to calm down and remain focused on whatever task she was doing before she got angry and uncontrollable. It’s primarily a focusing aura of fire than an aura of fire that harms people, it is still hot to the touch but would feel like hot water falling on your face more than anything. The empowered effect is from the Goreflame Staff. You have to say, ’Please Goreflame Staff stop me from doing something stupid and keep me focused.’
• The Fire Seal
  
  The Fire Seal spell is a spell, which she learned from the Goreflame Staff. It allows her to place a seal on the ground, which bars off a person from going a certain direction. When it activates it warns any nearby guards or others to the person whom tried to escape from their cell. The activation sound is a laughter at blocking someone’s escape. However, there can only be only two of these placed at a time and they cannot be activated at the same time since there’s a delay to the trap’s activation.
  
  Empowered Effect: This changes the Fire Seal into the Flame Longbow, which Louise is able to wield in her hands as long as they are on fire. Both seals on the ground are completely dissipated and utterly transforms the seals if they haven’t been activated into a Flame Quiver with 15 Flame Arrows to be used. It’s specifically shaped into whatever bow she likes the look of, which is why it looks specifically like her mother’s bow in the picture. The empowered effect is from the Goreflame Staff. You will have to say, ’Please Goreflame Staff make my aim true so I can feel like my mother feels when she wields a bow.’

Exceptional Skill List:

• The Raina Style of Archery (Exceptional Archery)
  
  Louise is completely able to wield any bow or crossbow as long as she wields them for hunting purposes. It’s mostly because her mother Raina was taught from a young age to wield a longbow to hunt her own food and what not. Raina passed down her skills in hunting down animals to her daughter Louise since she saw she would need it sooner than later.
• The von Hammerwhirl’s Endurance (Exceptional Endurance)
  
  The Rigorous training regimen that her father put her through has increased her endurance to be better and able to handle certain things better. It’ll take a long time for her endurance to be as great as her father or any of the Hammerwhirl Family’s greatest warriors for hire. That are also great mage killers on top of it. It is why she’s a bit more built for wearing heavier armor than most woman her size.

Personality:

Louise has quite a hotheaded streak throughout her childhood while growing up. It caused her constantly to butt heads with her father Steven. He was a bit of a prick and didn’t see her as a daughter and more of an obstacle to be dealt with in the most severe ways. However, he tried to pass down some knowledge and tradition to her, however, she didn’t want it at all because how he didn’t treat her with respect. Their relationship was never really going to be fixed since niether of them got what they wanted throughout their whole life living together. She thought to try to teach her father some humility but it was no use and caused her to literally do something she never has regretted since.

She was wholly sick and tired how everyone in her family minus her own mother treated her. They kept her shackled without having the actual shackles on her at the house like a caged bird unable to go free. All the things in the family was mandatory no matter what because of the family’s tradition, which caused her to feel definitely not enjoying her time there. It would’ve taken something distrastic for her to be free of her shackles, which caused her to walk up to her father one day and literally tell him off. However, what he said to her that day caused her to be very afraid of him, which is why she never felt sorry for the burning of her own home. It felt more like a prison than a loving and caring home.

Louise was finally free, however, she had to lose her connection with her mother Raina because she had to say some very mean things to her. Raina always loved her daughter Louise and never going to ruin that because of what her husband Steven wants. She got what she always wanted from her mother, which is the necklace of opposites. It was the most prideful thing she liked from her mother’s necklace collection. She’s much more calm and collected around her mother but her magic goes wild when around her father Steven since he’s a bit of an asshole. It pained her mother to brand her daughter with the tattoo of what she had done but it was one step closer to the freedom she desires the most.

She got her freedom even though she got disowned by her family, however, she’s able to do what she wanted to do and that’s to do whatever is in her own power to make a name for herself. It’s the first time she felt not tied to a name and a home because of her father Steven but truly herself.

Short Bio:

Louise was born to Steven Janus von Hammerwhirl and Raina August von Hammerwhirl on a beautiful summer morning on the 21st of June. They didn’t know at the time that Louise was in the most aspects was a mage and couldn’t control her powers not at all. Throughout her young childhood within the family was basically a loving warm family taking care of their new addition to the family. However, Steven was mostly out on his contracts working as a Mage Killer or otherwise. Her mother Raina stayed at home mostly keeping her two children at the time happy and keeping each other out of trouble. It was basically the reason why it was a loving home at first.

This loving home changed to a basically a landscape of hell that was unable to stop when Louise was at least eight years old. Is when one of the maids in the home saw her hair on fire, as if she was burning to death, however, it was more like she was awakening to her magical potential. Her father outright put out the fire, however, a few moments of the hair being dried it lit back up. Steven was utmost furious at the whole ordeal and called a mandatory family meeting about what to do with the awakened mage in their own family. He ignored his wife’s pleas of not killing the child on her 15th birthday alike all the others that have been killed because they awakened to their magical potential. However, when he asked her response, she outright yelled it to her husband to not kill Louise Ester von Hammerwhirl and she’ll be responsible for anything the child will do or will not do with her magic. It was because of that plea from Raina August von Hammerwhirl that allowed their daughter Louise to stay alive. This one decision made Steven outright dickish towards his wife Raina and his daughter Louise in particular he stopped loving them.

Louise had to go through every single thing her father put her through with a face of irritation. As she got older, the more annoyingly question asking towards her father she was, she constantly asked questions to her father in why he was being distant. She did get through him in making him stop being so distant with Raina, it took this child he outright despised to fix his relationship with her mother. Steven outright didn’t thank the black sheep for the help, he did gave her a backhanded insult to the youngish girl. She was 15 years old at the time when that backhanded insult happened. It was obvious she didn’t like the insult her father gave her since she had a definite trying time to keep herself calm in not losing control of what she had.

She had a better connection with her mother than her father anyway. However, Steven needed some humility and becoming generous again because he was being quite distant and hateful towards her. Exactly three years later, she walked into her father’s study and asked him specifically why he called her a black sheep and all the mean and hateful things he said to her while she was growing up. Steven looked directly at her and told her, her useless mother should have let you die by his own hands in a battle to the death combat. But Raina had to outright say no, alike she was protecting her own daughter from her mage killer father. Louise at this moment became highly afraid and lost her calm and collective hotheaded persona and she went out and said the one thing that her father said to her all the time. In the moment of fury and hate, she told her father specifically she hated him for being a cruel monster that butcher the helpless. This caused her will of fire to go out of control and tried to kill her father exactly because of his plainly disrespect of fighting fair. The von Hammerwhirl family fights fair in a fight, but she told him I guess fighting fair doesn’t matter if it is against mages.

Steven outright laughed at her blatantly insulting towards the traditions of the family, however, he always knew mages were unjust to live. However, he promised his wife not to harm Louise if she debases herself to show what all mages want and that’s his head and his family broken and destroyed. He was a bit amazed that his daughter wanted to kill him, however. It made him tinge at the thought of being killed by a mage in his own family, however, he shrugged off the magic emitting from his daughter. Steven outright called his daughter weak and hopeless, if his hands weren’t tied behind his back he would kill her right now with his Great Maul in its holder on the ground. However, she was furious and the will of fire of her entire body started to engulf the home. She told her father, than you don’t deserve a home to live in I felt hopeless in this house and I now know the reason for this, you father.

Steven learned on single thing he should ignore his wife’s pleas the next time this happens with any of his children and kill them when they turn 15. He knew all the house was already evacuated because he was planning to upgrade his home anyway but it needed to be burnt down anyways. Louise was confused in why she was thanked for burning down their home. However, she fainted from her magical power being overexerting a bit too much since the entire mansion was being consumed by fire. He helped her since he can handle the heat and didn’t want his own daughter to die by something stupid as being exhausted while in a burning building. The only good thing he done for his daughter the entire time she was alive. In a sense, he was taught humility but didn’t care about such things since his daughter was a mage.

Louise woke up awhile later in a small house with her mother sitting by her. Raina told her that her family agreed of disowning her and outright freeing her of the bonds of her name. However, Louise was a bit tearful when she learned that she wouldn’t be able to use her full name. Raina tried to calm her down since not many people will know what she has done since they are so removed from Venedig. She could still use her name as long as she doesn’t show the tattoo she has to be given, which is unable to be removed via the magic she wields. It is basically called the firebringer tattoo, it describes very well on her back that she burnt down the childhood home of her, her elder brother Ethan and her younger sister Fiona. She was basically happy to get the tattoo since she would feel better outside and walking about being helpful instead of helpless. Raina told her how long the new renovation will take in terms of rebuilding the mansion brand new. She finally realized why her father thanked her for burning down the house now, she was necessary. It took her a bit and sighed because that’s too much for her the last thing her father did was make her burn down their own house. However, she always felt like it was required for her to feel better than she always had.

It took at least 3 years for them to create the necessary gear for her to decrease her magical potential and she was given the most creepy staff in the vault of the von Hammerwhirl Family, the Goreflame Staff. The only part of the mansion that was completely untouched since it can withstand much more than a fire. She was not really creeped out by the weapon they gave to her but she was a bit dazzled by the fact it could speak in a feminine voice. However, she was told that there’s three souls within the Goreflame Staff that are female that were sacrificed for nothing basically by her father. Since the mage was overconfident and was caught completely unaware by the Mage Killers that were hunting him.

After all that she was let go and she traveled where her freedom wanted her to go, which caused her to find herself in Venedig and joining the Alhryt-Liu Trade and Lending Company as a lowly message runner for the company about escaped slaves. The company didn’t really mind she was a mage at all because they allow all sorts of folks to join their company. She just turned 22 years old when she joined up with the Alhryt-Liu Trade and Lending Company.

Additional Information

The von Hammerwhirl Family

The von Hammerwhirl Family are steeped in tradition and routine that served them for many generations and the fact they outright have a hostile reaction to any form of magic. They are blatantly ignorant and arrogant towards anyone who’s deemed a mage and sees it as a form of cheating. They are highly honorable when fighting in another faction’s wars or any such aggressive action, which they always strive in saving the civilians first instead of letting them die. They primarily wield great mauls, tower shields and heavy plate mail with chained mail underneath to protect themselves from arrows.

It has said they usually get hired by the City Government of Venedig and any other faction that gives them a large amount of coin to fight against bandits or monsters of the surrounding area of the city. It is said a terrible calamity befell the family when their family gained an unlikely very heated debate surrounding their second born daughter Louise. It is very rare that a mage is born within the Hammerwhirl family but whenever it happens they usually do the best option and kill the child, however, the mother didn’t want Louise to die. This was pretty much the reason why Louise was left alive throughout her childhood always unable to wield what she was, a mage. She felt like a caged bird in a very tight knit community of people who will always hate her for what she is rather than being open minded about the future.

The family after a certain thing happened outright disowned Louise because of this. Her family curses her name and calls her the Firebringer as a highly negative outlook. Her mother has regretted her decision in allowing her child live but its too late for that. The von Hammerwhirl family are one of the family’s that people usually hire to hunt down and kill Mages if they are too dangerous. However, the scar on the family is the fact they allowed Louise to live when they should have all came to the agreement to kill the girl when she came to the age of 15.

The Family:

• Steven Janus von Hammerwhirl (Alive – 45)
• Raina August von Hammerwhirl (Alive – 45)
• Ethan Lee von Hammerwhirl (Alive – 24)
• Louise Ester von Hammerwhirl (Alive – 22)
• Fiona Dora von Hammerwhirl (Alive – 15)

Holly was thinking about things while looking at her status and noticed static charge on it. It was a pretty annoying to her but it could always be worse she supposed. She only faced certain mechanics in other video games that weren’t that annoying. It was pretty much obvious she noticed Willow’s annoyance at the mechanic in-question. In terms of her walking out of the inn, however, she couldn’t really help but sigh when Willow came back in with frustrated look on her face. It was pretty much obvious it didn’t work. ”What’s worst being statically charged or having a hell of a time within a game because game developers are being cruel?” Holly thought to herself, with a slight frustrated look on her face.

Holly decided to sit down at the table that Willow was sitting at and heard the waitress’ greeting and had a smile on her face. It was pretty funny at least, it was unique to this game to have great NPCs. ”I would definitely like to have the ale, sliced fruit and stew. It would definitely help my mood.” Holly said, with a smile. She got out 12cp for the order she gave the waitress that was talking to Willow. It was pretty much obvious that she was exhausted from how she was acting and needed a pick me up from the whole ordeal of that battle, Lost Genesis had. She saw River standing at the bar, which meant he got them beds for all of them. It gave her a slight smile at least friends are always required for this type of thing.

Holly looked at Willow with a slight smile but definitely went back to frowning and a bit frustrated. It was taking her a bit to wonder what to say because its pretty much obvious the last boss was definitely on her nerves. She had many other things on her mind but she’s grateful she’s with her friends even though she will never meet Karuu face to face since he died on the floor one boss. It took her a bit, which caused her to put her head down on the table. ”This game is constantly reinforcing that it sucks worse than all the other ones I’ve played with you guys… Never would have thought I would be trapped within a game with my friends...” Holly quietly said towards Willow.

Summary:

• Sits at the same table as Willow
• Spends 12 copper on Stew, Sliced Fruit and Ale.

Diana’s Brutal Reality – References – September 26, 1914 (Siege of Amone)

---

Diana was starring at her pendant necklace still, which was dear to her because of her parents gifted it to her. This one necklace gave her the reference of a simpler time, which gave her a smile on her face. It was the primary reason, why she tried to constantly try to keep her mind on keeping her humanity from all the crazy shit that happened in this war. However, it was pretty hard to do so since this war is chaotic, crazy and everything. She is basically trying to hold on her humanity as much as possible even if it hurts her career in the military. ”All of this is a pain… guess it could be worse I suppose? The gas attack is going to be a nightmare I will constantly have or other some such. The people who ordered that are stupid as fuck.” Diana thought to herself, with a slight annoyance in her face. However, she looked up and noticed Reyna at a table surrounded by tons of letters, which made her giggle somewhat.

She decided to put back on her silver pendant necklace around her neck, with it still opened at least. However, she picked up the plate of cookies, which were great cookies that her mother created and wanted to know if Reyna wanted some. She walked over to Reyna’s table with all those letters and sighed at the letters, which are a bit too much for one person to handle. ”T-That many letters, you got there, Reyna. Do you want a cookie for your troubles?” Diana asked, curiously since her mother’s cookies are wonderful and a good stress relief. She giggled slightly at what she had said because its a bit funny. However, she remembered what she promised Jean that she’ll definitely tell Reyna about Jean’s affections towards everyone. ”Oh yeah… Reyna, Jean confessed to me that he likes you, me and Kalisa. It gave me a bit of a shock that he confessed to me particular.” Diana said, however, she was curious what Jean did afterwards the dance since she didn’t see it. She sat down at Reyna’s table and glanced at all the letters mostly because there’s too many for Reyna to handle.

Diana noticed some of the letters, with certain words on them and kinda looks like the envelopes, which hold love letters within them. Her mother Rebecca specifically dislikes getting love letters from random people and/or assholes. It caused her to giggle somewhat because her mother would say some curse words and throw away the letters in question in the trash or burn them. ”God, if my mother Rebecca was here she would probably be on purposely trying to burn those letters she tells me are the worst… from random people and assholes mainly.” Diana said with a giggle trying to hold herself from laughing to loudly since her mother curses a bit too much when it involves love letters. It doesn’t help her mother still gets them from her ex, which is also her childhood friend from way back when. She looks through the letters and notices a recognizable name, which is Randall since her father was praising him for making his money honestly. Gavin was also praising Hall Industries too, in the same sentence. ”T-That’s… many letters from your father Reyna. Uhhh.. what’s your mother’s name? My father Gavin praised your father’s business and everything. Don’t know how he knew that before me…” Diana said, remembering she only learned about Hall Industries from Reyna in this war in terms of what it does exactly. She smiled happily because of this whole thing. It was pretty much obvious she wanted to focus on something that doesn’t involve Luke and Ines in her thoughts. Reyna is definitely that person to focus on something else. ”...I am mixed up in all my thoughts right now… At least Reyna is sweet and the tea she made was nice.” Diana thought to herself for a second, with a goofy looking grin on her face, mostly because of the fact she’s still thinking about everything.

She sighed deeply and got herself a cookie from the tray and started to eat it. All the other people can still get a cookie if they wanted she has plenty more where these came from. ”My mother always says, being quiet doesn’t get you anywhere. Reyna can I have that recipe for that Tea you’ve made since it was wonderful and helped me through me deciding to lose at the drinking competition I had with Luke and Victoria. Since I wouldn’t have won anyway.” Diana said, however, there was something else on her mind. It was mostly because she did notice Reyna was starring at her while they danced it was a bit embarrassing to remember but it was definitely fun to enjoy yourself once in awhile. ”I did enjoy that dance you danced with me too… even though it was a bit embarrassing… It definitely helped me get over what I was going through in terms of me crying, so thank you.” Diana said, with a bit of a smile on her face and had an embarrassing look on her face. It was mostly because she didn’t properly say thank you to Reyna for the dance because of her mood was a bit crying but the dance she saw with Jean and Reyna looked fun. It is an experience she will never leave from her heart since it enjoyable and if it wasn’t for this war it would be fun to try some more dancing with Reyna as a friend.

Diana took off her silver pendant necklace of her neck and opened it so Reyna can see it. On the right, showed her mother Rebecca, the one she constantly talked about and Gavin her father on the left. They are the only two pillars in her life that is a constant in it. However, joining this war gave her more pillars and people to rely on. ”Here’s my parents Gavin and Rebecca, my mother still basically looks like this… these were taken when they were 23 years old.” Diana said, happily while talking about her parent’s photos in the pendant. The only thing that was more exciting was the fact now more people get to see them. It took her a few moments but she remembered what she said about Reyna’s tea and couldn’t help but blush about what’s going on in her head. ”C-Crap...” Diana said, with a nervous twinge.

Holly was definitely shaken from all that happened in the last floor, which was specifically the lost of an ally and friend. It didn’t help she was exhausted, sore, and feeling a bit cold from the raining. She equipped her raincoat from her inventory, therefore, it wouldn’t be as bad, but the transitioning to this landscape was amazing and beautiful even though it was raining. ”I definitely have much shopping to do… to resupply and stuff.” Holly thought to herself, while trying to keep up with the group she can see. It didn’t help it was dark, which was an additionally hazard she didn’t like, she wasn’t terrified of it but fear of the unknown is a definite thing. She had more important matters to handle right now.

Holly was lost in her own thoughts for awhile, since she was grateful she had a bow like she has or she would’ve been defenseless in that battle. She knew somethings about that battle on the last floor was a disaster, which is she mostly got from her father. He always said, being under preparedness and lack of coordination causes disaster. I hope no one else dies from my friends since I would hate that the most...” Holly thought to herself, it was basically remembering what her father said about not knowing all sides of a conflict. This was definitely a conflict, which she involves her living to the end goal of winning this game so she can free herself.

Holly made sure she hurried to the nearest town she saw in the distance by the lightning, which was a beautiful city from the looks like. She had specifically a shopping list to do since she needed more health, mana potions and arrows. It came across her mind, which she unlocked the Ranger Subclass and should ask around in the city how to properly use it. She remembered why she picked Ranger Subclass specifically for the maneuverability rather than wielding heavy crossbows. It was on the box art for the Archer class that it has two distinct subclasses. However, she needed to stick with her friends and allies in Lost Genesis. Because of the death in their guild, Karuu is dead.

The only thing that helped in all this was the fact she could relax and take it somewhat easy in the town that they would be relaxing in. She needed to get some rest after that horribleness anyway, which was always annoying to her. It was pretty much obvious she wanted to get out of the rain so she headed towards the Tipsy Trodoon mostly because of River’s message through the guild message system. ”Uhh that’s a funny name of an Inn...” Holly thought to herself with a slight smile on her face. She remembered it is a fantasy game so inns are named silly names rather than the luxurious hotels and inns in real life, like the French Quarter Inn, which her father been to for a business meeting one year. It was a bit odd for him to go all the way to South Carolina for a business meeting but it was pretty much common for him to go all over the US to talk to clients.

Stephanie had a kind smile on her face when Cisna sat down next to her since it was nice to meet more people in her own way. It’s better to have a smile on your face than trying to confront people, how her parents wanted her to be. She heard Cisna’s name when she introduced herself, with a gentle smile on her face and like happy to hear the name. ”Cisna, that’s a wonderful name. Sarah, my adopted mother, she was more of a mother than my own biological mother Rita. I was happy in the presence of Sarah since she taught me many things especially that everyone has their given name for reasons and you shouldn’t hate it. But I hate my last name because it’s literally tied to the Delia-Mira Mercenary Band that are horrible...” Stephanie said. It is definitely hinted in her tone she loved Sarah much more than Rita because Sarah is the reason for her learning in her element magic of water. She deeply sighed and hopefully Sarah is still alright even though she doesn’t want to check on her because of the fact her hometown is under control of those same mercenaries that was to protect the city.

It was definitely a hard thing for her to handle most of all, which is why she had to run away from home. Sarah was there for her through all her nightmares of seeing horribleness and other type of things as if her mother and father were demons. She heard Cisna and felt a bit of a similarity, which they both had horrible parents. It was relaxing to hear someone else also had pretty bad parents. ”It was awful I had constant nightmares of my mother Rita killing me constantly in them as a Demonic entity, a Succubus? I finally stopped having them after I slept in my bedroom in the Sanctuary, I cried happy tears seeing it. I’m grateful to Satelle in having Rita’s older sister right in that town I would’ve been killed in by my own mother. My parents were highly disappointed in how I am, but its better to be yourself than someone else… that’s what Sarah always said.” Stephanie said. Her tone of voice was highly shaking when she more or less revealed she had terrible nightmares about her mother killing her constantly as if she was a demon. She doesn’t want to change in some mass murdering killer like her parents are, since they care not for civilian causalities as long as they get their mark it is all that counts. It was definitely constantly made her feel bad for all the people they killed just to get a contract finished to perfection.

Stephanie was shaking a bit because of that reveal about what she had to go through for six years of her life of those awful nightmares. However, she felt a bit of kinship with Cisna since how the tone in her voice showed she had horrible parents too. ”S-Sorry about that… I had to get that off my chest. It’s been six long years of those nightmares, which didn’t help living in my hometown of Gondrevil. Even with my adopted mother Sarah being Mayor of it. I feel much safer here than I ever did in Sarah’s mansion. She taught me water magic even though my mood when I learned it was sad and depressed...” Stephanie said. She couldn’t help but tear up because of the fact she misses Sarah much, she gave her knowledge that is invaluable, like what she told her of the proud Anserians and their enemies the Dremorians. The two races were very similar but opposite, in terms one primarily uses Light Magic and the other uses Dark Magic. Sarah told her about their magics, which they were great at and told her to specifically stay away form any contact from the Dremorian Empire. She remembered her adopted mother’s voice when talking about the Dremorian Empire, she was afraid of their ambition. It was hardly a thing to remember but she usually does these things since her and Sarah had long conversations about other races that her parents talked about. However, the only race her parents never talked about was the Dremorians. It was an odd thing, alike they were afraid of them as well.

She continued to eat her breakfast, which was definitely good since it reminds her of Sarah’s cooking it was top notch. It was definitely helping her bring back memories of all the things. In terms of it, she looked at Cisna, which she more or less poured out what she had to go through. All because of her parents Rita and Derrick of all people. She slightly smiled, which she sighed a bit. It’s because of the fact her parents would’ve definitely killed her the first chance they gotten and wouldn’t held back on her because she had no idea how to use their weapons. She felt like they forced their weapons on her just so they could replace them with more crueler weapons. ”Out of everything, I hate my parent’s hand-me downs. Because of their backfiring nature they have built in them, if you fuck up a single word in their phrase to use said spell they backfire...” Stephanie said, feeling like she’s repeating herself but its true because the Firebrand Rapier & Icebrand Shortsword don’t fit her at all. She’s grateful that Vilkas is going to make her a weapon that fits her perfectly. ”Vilkas, I am definitely happy that you are going to make me a weapon while learning everything of my parent’s hand-me downs…” Stephanie said, with a feeling of relief.

Stephanie had a definite look on her face of sincerity mostly at the fact Vilkas was scowling at her parent’s elements in terms of Fire & Ice perspective. It definitely was a bit annoying in having parents like, which didn’t allow her to be herself only a person who allowed her to be alike themselves. However, what he said next kinda made her smile mostly at the fact her relationship with her parents was pretty bad since her own mother tried to kill her. ”Y-Yeah… not that great since I hated them altogether for making me try to change who I am. However, it didn’t help that my own mother Rita tried to kill me when I was ten years old… for the goddess I worshiped compared to them. Stephanie said, still shocked and terrified at that for what Rita wanted to do to her. She was grateful for the protection of her goddess saving her in terms of the Paladin Order of Satelle in Baterol, which was six years ago. It was definitely interesting in hearing Vilkas talk about how someone can tell by their natural magic, and how it may change over time, it was unique to hear that. She was shocked and gasped when he said Dromon’s name again and it shifted from Light to Grey. ”That’s pretty interesting in terms of the Elemental affinities of Grey, and its name too, Thaumaturge. This is the first time I heard of Grey/Thaumaturge.” Stephanie said, with a curious look on her face. It was definitely the first time since Dromon was always a Holy Dragon to the not long lived race of humans and never piss him off since he’s terrifying anyway.

She perked up with what she heard him say next about making her a weapon. ”I would love to have a weapon all my own that isn’t a hand-me down from my parents.” Stephanie said excitedly. The elements that synchronize with water were Air and Green Magic and she saw the runic sigils of each element that he called up. She heard specifically what is in return for crafting her a weapon that’s all her own, however, she didn’t bring her father’s Icebrand Shortsword with her since its still in her bedroom. ”You may study these weapons… even though my father’s hand-me down is in my bedroom. I wanted to bring my mother’s weapon to see if I could train with it but it would probably be better to train with something more my element. That sounds pretty ominous in terms of darker enchantments...” Stephanie said, with a whole heartily sigh of relief at someone else learning every single thing about her parent’s weapons.

However, it did remind her that her parents constantly boasted about getting their target with acceptable causalities of civilians, which were in the way. It was a nightmare to even learn the very first magical sword technique, which is an off-shoot school of Elemental Magic and Magical Engineering. Out of the two swords, she feared the backfiring of the Icebrand Sword more but it backfired less frequently while her mother’s weapon backfired the most and felt like on command by her own mother. ”I outright disliked when they backfired… but my father’s sword I feared more when it backfired… since you can probably tell what that would mean since his element is Ice.” Stephanie additionally said. It took around 11 – 15 years old for her to learn the basic magical sword techniques from both of her parent’s weapons even though it was definitely a trying time for her. Being constantly burnt and dropping the weapon and having her mother laugh at her didn’t help or the fact her father was carefully watching her and not really happy with the results of her heartlessness, which she didn’t have. She knew her mother was still pissed from the time she tried to kill her, however, she made no act towards that for some odd reason. ”I guess that’s because of the necklace I wore… why mother didn’t act on her first instinct to kill me… without question. She was laughing constantly at me for fucking up, however. Derrick on the other hand was cold and calculating as he was always but disliked the killer instinct…” Stephanie thought to herself, with an annoyed look of disdain for her parents in particular. Their attitude towards her didn’t really change throughout training her while she couldn’t really feel any love from them since they are monsters or demons in human skin. It was because of those nightmares that made her feel that way.

Stephanie, however, heard Vilkas’ response to Cisna and just smiled towards her with a friendly smile. It was definitely refreshing at the fact she’s happy right now. ”Please Sit and enjoy chatting with me and Vilkas.” Stephanie said, with a happy smile on her face towards Cisna. However, she came to a realization that her parents were probably hunting for her, which she knew they wanted to kill her. She went a bit pale with that bit of definite fear, which is a great thing she was in Sanctuary away from those awful parents of hers. It took her a bit of a time to get out of the whole thing since she’s safe and why would she leave Sanctuary to go back to that terrible place of reality. She wants to get stronger so her parents aren’t able to use their experiences against her and their power over her. ”S-Sorry… I just remembered my hometown is basically under control of my parents… and the Mercenary Band they co-lead, which are terrible bunch of mercenaries...” Stephanie said, with fear of what happened to all the people in Gondrevil. However, those nightmares made her leave her hometown to join Sanctuary. Because if she stayed a moment longer she would have definitely been killed by her parents.

Stephanie was eating her breakfast since it was definitely needed for her, which was the reason she’s happy for the help by Vilkas. It was pretty much obvious, she has always hated the Firebrand Rapier because of what her mother Rita specifically wanted to do to her. The Firebrand rapier in question shimmered and glowed in a small ‘reddish’ aura while Vilkas was holding it. She caught that specific glow and shimmering with her eyes, she only seen that specific glow when her mother Rita was teaching her how to use the weapon. ”I hate that glow the most, it was definitely much brighter when my mother wielded it though.” Stephanie said, with a definite rattle in her voice in terms of hate in seeing it glow like that. It was pretty obvious she was definitely afraid of that weapon since she saw its destructive power first hand when her mother was showing off while teaching her.

She kinda went off in her mind to remember that destructive thing her mother Rita was doing with the brutal Firebrand Rapier. ”The destructive force of fire is terrifying, when in my mother’s hands. The thing I trained on… with her sword was definitely weird and pretty ominous in how it absorbed the Fire alike a well.” Stephanie thought to herself, with look on her face a bit shocked and can’t handle whatever was created to help her mother’s destructive fire be so isolated and not spreading throughout her hometown. This specific thought constantly got to her since it was a bit creepy for whatever her parents were using for her to train on using their enchanted weapons. She stopped thinking about that since she heard a voice asking about to sit down next to her.

Stephanie had a slight shock to her system when she looked at the person who asked to sit besides her and Vilkas. The girl’s white wings were beautiful, which made her remember what her parents talked about the Anserians. However, only one good thing that Rita and Derrick said about the Anserians are about their wings and nothing else. She pretty much ignored their racism after that since she didn’t want to become what her parents wanted her to be. ”I don’t mind if you sit next to me. My name is Stephanie, what’s yours?” Stephanie questioned, curiously. It was the first time seeing an Anserian. She smiled with a gentle smile towards Cisna, since it was common courtesy to do so. She looked towards Vilkas and more or less spoke towards him with a kind demeanor since this girl definitely asked nicely. ”What about you Vilkas?” Stephanie asked to Vilkas. She was definitely interested in meeting the other residents of the Sanctuary since she wasn’t alike her parents at all.

It had always been pretty hard to keep herself on the path of pacifism since she worships the Goddess of Peace and Order, Satelle. Mostly because of her parents kinda hard when they were trying to force her to worship the Goddess of War & Ambition, Nalissa. ”I must stay on the path of what I want guess that’s why my mother’s weapon specifically constantly fights me because of the Goddess I worship… But it could just not like me like my mother since she tried to kill me...” Stephanie thought to herself, with a definite look of fear and a hint of rage towards her mother Rita. She has never wanted to harm another person in her life but she will definitely defend herself if required, however. It's nice when everyone is afraid of her mother's specific nickname, which was passed onto her by wielding the Firebrand rapier. She was somewhat grateful everyone who tried to approach her was definitely taken aback by how she responded to them. It didn't help she only learned while in the Sanctuary her parents were spying on her inner thoughts.

Holly Emerald

User Name:
Holly Emerald

Holly Emerald, which was the easiest for her friends to spot her in-game when she’s playing the game. It was created along time ago for other video games, which she played with her friends.
Real Name:
Patricia Cole Miller
Title:
N/A
Gender:
Female
Age:
18
Race:
Human
Appearance:

Holly Emerald stands at a 5’6”, which gives her anxiety around people who notice her hourglass shaped body. She has heterochromia in her eyes, which one of her eyes is blue and the other one is green. Her body language usually shows her a bit unique, which wanted to always be apart of the foreground minus the fact she has to usually be noticed in that case. Her beautiful blonde hair, which is extremely long has anything to say about her it is her lack of wanting to shape her hair, in a ponytail. The hair go past her lower back. She has a very cute voice and usually constantly says certain things, which constantly embarrasses her.

She weighs around 115 lbs, which is below the average weight of what normal girls her age weigh. The look she gives most people, which is usually utter shock or ’what did you just say.’ She never used a filter on her voice, which gets her more embarrassed. The probability of the likelihood of her getting angry at anyone is pretty low most of the time. She gets more depressed or internally try to figure out why she’s utterly terrified or otherwise. She usually stares up at the stars, when she wasn’t in the game. However, she’s more terrified at the fact she’s trapped within Talrae than anything.

Background:

Patricia C. Miller was born into the Miller Family, which are a wealthy family that lives in the United States of America. Her mother's name is Lana R. Miller and her father's name is Frank L. Miller. The corporation in question deals in two things, one is military contracts for the US Military, which is weapon based. The other is basically a brand of clothing, which Lana primarily deals with. Her family mansion, which is in the vicinity of Columbus, Nebraska.

Her parents were nice to her to a point, which usually causes her to pause and wonder what she did wrong. The entirety of her relationship with her two parents was a bit strained throughout her entire childhood. It’s mostly because her mother wanted her to be apart of the clothes side of the business, however, her father wanted her to do whatever she wanted. It was a bit hard to be a daughter of a corporation, which deals in weapons and clothes. She felt kinda like if she was being swallowed by what her mother wants her to be. She wants to be what she wants to be, which she had to explode on her mother with a bit of a calm anger in her voice. However, afterwards she was a bit terrified of her mother since she is pretty but terrifyingly scary when she wants to be.

That really caused her to get to know her father more mostly because she wanted to allow her mother to cool down. Her father made her interested in video games, which were only online. There was an option to meet them in person, her father would take her to them if she wanted to. She created her online identity called Holly Emerald. She met some people online, which was highly interesting, they were talking about multiple different games. She wanted to experience them all, however, she was outright a bit shy around them since she constantly said things that would embarrass her.

It took her about much help by the people, which she met online to help her with her game she got stuck on, which was a MMORPG before the new VRMMORPG came out. It interested her enough but couldn’t really figure out to tell her father to preorder Talrael, which so she could play it. She gained enough courage to ask her father, which was definitely an experience to say in itself. Since he heard many things about the VRMMORPGs had nerve gear and didn’t want to see his daughter to get hurt. However, she definitely knew not of the dangers of the game itself.

The friends she had gotten within the mmos or vrmmos before the biggest one came out, helped her a bit on the mechanics. However, the father helped her set up the Nerve Gear in question. She had many online friends basically helping her keep up with the entirety of the mess. The Fantasy World of Talrael was outright insane, which felt like the mmos that she had played but more virtual. She couldn’t really help enjoy it. She instantly picked the class of Archer because it fit her styles of wanting to please her father, which he dealt mainly in long-ranged military hardware like missiles.

However, the one thing which made her utterly terrified was when the sky turned red, which she heard that she is trapped within this insanely fun game. With people she knew from her online days on other games, however, she couldn’t really tell what frightened her more, the nerve gear will kill her or that the world was a prison. She couldn’t help but shake in fear at what was happening to everyone within this game. The entirety of the world afraid, until one of her online friends told her to stop being afraid. It will be better if you fight your way out of the game. She knew, however, her father and mother wasn’t at home at the time of hooking herself up to the Nerve Gear. They weren’t stupid to instantly disconnect her from it.

Her body, however, would be wasting away in the real world, which made her want to outright want to get out of this game as quickly as possible. Or she’ll be trapped in here without a way out. That made her fear the game more than just the fact she could die from hitting zero hp. The end boss showing up and turning her into what she looks like in real life kinda gave her a shock. Now her voice definitely matches her appearance, since what she picked was a red haired archer avatar before the literal imprisonment turned her into her real appearance. She had to fight to get out of here, and she’s going to do it with her friends, which she met online. She never once asked her father to meet them in real life, however. She was kinda shy and easily embarrassed.

Diana’s Brutal Reality – Diana’s Pendant – September 26, 1914 (Siege of Amone)

---

Diana felt a bit annoyed and frustrated that Luke didn’t respond to what she had said. ”He must’ve been in his own little world or something… Ugh, I guess that’s why he thinks a hangover is nice.. Guess everyone has many things on their head after that terrible time. I am definitely not happy about it either.” Diana thought to herself, with a cute sigh. It was somewhat good he didn’t respond or he would have probably used his patent little jokes on her again. They are definitely annoying and thinking that made her seethe in rage just thinking about what he’ll say to her. ”Why am I being frustrated at a guy who hasn’t said anything to me yet? It’s probably my mother’s letter that’s getting me to think about these things.” Diana thought to herself, having a small frown on her face. It took her a minute to calm down from all the things in her head about the shock of her mother’s letter and cookies. She sighed with a slight bit relief in her body language and decided to look through the package in question. It’s mostly because her mother is overly prepared in everything, which she wasn’t really shocked to find a metal plate in the package with the patented Vastergoth Bakery’s cookie shaped holders. This was the first time of her seeing the cookie shaped holder type plate, which was a bit weird nonetheless.

She couldn’t help but sigh at the thoroughness of her mother’s preparedness. It made her feel a bit more down it was obvious her mother knew what kind of plate would hold her cookies. Her entire body language was definitely not happy at this whole thing, but she took out the plate and put cookies on it, which equal ten cookies. ”Can you please stop this mother? Why are you always over prepared for things? But this plate in question is a first time I’ve seen it.” Diana thought to herself with a definite not happy look on her face. It’s mostly because of the letter, which she read that’s hurting her mood but she would probably feel better if she gave her mother’s cookies to the squad. She walked by Jean and Thomas talking about important things. It was obviously she didn’t hear what they were talking about since she had her own problems to deal with. In terms of her body language she needed to be cheered up a bit.

Diana was highly focused on giving her squadmates her mother’s cookies. At least the package was safe near her stuff in the small area she was sitting at, which she did shut because it was required to keep the rest of the cookies safe. She noticed Thomas casually going over to her, which gave her a slight smile on her face. When he took a cookie from the plate she was holding, which helped her mood a bit. However, what shocked her a bit and made her blush all at the same time was when Thomas winked at her. ”Umm… did that just happen? Did he wink at me.” Diana thought to herself, she had never thought someone who’s a hero would wink at her. It took her a bit to refocus since that definitely took her for a bit of a loop. She smiled gently towards him and she definitely blushed more with what he said about which is the real treat. Her thoughts were going a bit wild but she calmed herself some to respond to his question. ”U-Uhh… Yeah… Treats are very hard to come by I suppose.” Diana said, with her face blushing a bit. She realized after she spoke that she more or less said that the cookies and her are a treat and couldn’t help but blush a bit more than she had. ”T-Thank you for that by the way… I needed some cheering up, Thomas.” Diana said, with a smile on her face. Some people knew how to cheer people up and what Thomas had said definitely brought her smile back.

She couldn’t help but stare a bit as Thomas was returning to continue the conversation with Jean. It took her a bit to notice that Micheal was there now to, it made her smile somewhat. ”I guess I will ask Michael & Jean if they want a cookie after they have spoke a bit...” Diana thought to herself, with a gentle smile on her face. She continued on her general path until she heard some laughter and giggling coming from Luke’s tent. It caused her to stop and listen in, which made her hear Ines’ voice coming from the tent. ”Ah, so that’s where Ines’ went. I hope they don’t want me to join in whatever they are doing… I don’t want a repeat of last time.” Diana thought to herself. However, a part of her wanted to repeat something, which she was highly embarrassed about at the White Hart Inn, ala stripping herself completely naked. It was there only for a moment and kinda was jealous of Ines having fun with Luke in a friendly way. ”T-The hell? Why am I jealous of Ines? It’s not like they are going to do it… He is too shy of a guy to handle that anyways. He didn’t know how to properly kiss a girl… W-What’s wrong with me? Why do I feel like I am doing something wrong… with my life?” Diana thought to herself, with a frustrated look but why she was frustrated wasn’t as easy as day to see.

Diana decided to walk away from the tent before she does something stupid as if her mother made her a bit more self-conscious about herself and her life. It made her feel like her mother was right here on the battlefield with her. She finally made it to a table or barrel and put the metal plate down and couldn’t help but sigh. It was definitely a thing, which caused her to move her left hand towards her silver pendant necklace that everyone can see and opened it and looked directly at her mother Rebecca and her father Gavin. She decided to sit down right there as well, and stared directly at the pictures in question. ”Mother and Father what do you want me to do?” Diana asked quietly towards the Pendant Necklace. It was obvious she was trying to ask for guidance from pictures even though they don’t talk or move. The fact she was conscripted to this battlefield away from the two people she loved the most was definitely hurtful to her. She hoped that no one noticed her speaking to her pendant necklace but had a gentle smile. However, at least she stared at the cookies on the plate and looked around to see if any of her squadmates were moving around. ”My mother’s homemade cookies from home are wonderful, it’ll be nice if you try them. But I am going to sit hear though since I need sometime to think.” Diana resounded her voice to be a bit higher so everyone could hear her. However, her tone of voice was mostly to renounce she got cookies and not like an order or anything since she wants everyone to enjoy them since the only ones that could order her are Thomas, Jean and Isaac. This was mostly to people that weren’t in a tent, however, if they were paying attention they could’ve heard Diana’s voice.

Diana’s Brutal Reality – Another Day – Within Amone’s City Walls (September 12th)

---

Diana was a bit annoyed at the frustration coming from Luke, all she did was glare at him because it was a bit annoying. However, a slight smile came across her face when she saw Inès come to help out Franz, since he definitely needed it. However, what Luke said made her a bit more annoyed and couldn’t help but stare at him in her mask with a definite look of seriously. She didn’t want to insult him or anything since Jean did tell them not to get going again. But how she was staring at Luke was please can you calm the fuck down you twit. ”God damn… I know he’s exhausted but can he please not piss anymore people off today? We have the Imperials on our ass we don’t need in fighting. I don’t want to piss off Jean.” Diana thought to herself, with her definitely staring directly at Luke.

She saw Jean go ahead since there was clearing in the gas. She definitely followed her squadmates as closely as possible since she didn’t want to be separated from them. It made her think about certain things while running through the streets, buildings and other things to stay away from the Imperials that wanted to kill them. For specifically the Federation’s superiors did, however, it was definitely annoyance for her. ”...I fucking hate this shit… I hope my family is alright back at home...” Diana thought to herself, while she was deathly afraid while wearing her mask. However, how she was running felt like what happened during her Conscription Training with that prick of a Drill Sergeant, which was the grandfather of her childhood friend.

Diana’s Brutal Reality – “New Vastergoth Bakery Package” – September 26, 1914 (Siege of Amone)

---

In terms of certain things, Diana was definitely a bit better off than she had been during that specific day that will live in infamy with her. The Day the world went mad, civilians, imperials and federation all went mad that day, which was on Luke’s birthday it was a bit of a sad tale really. Everyone was trying to kill the other side and civilians in the end were cut down in their prime of their life by toxic gas. She was grateful she’s still alive, after all that craziness. It was pretty much obvious, that the silver pendant necklace she always wore during everywhere she went was still around her neck. She was comfortably wearing her clothes, where you got to see the necklace and she wasn’t wearing her helmet because this was an area that had friendlies. In terms of certain things, how she was dressed was a bit causally looking. She walked by where Luke was taking a head dunking challenge and heard what he said and rolled her eyes. However, she wasn’t looking at him when she spoke, however. ”How can a hangover be nice? I do like the peaceful day though it’s definitely better than most things I suppose.” Diana spoke with a bit of a sarcastic tone in her voice, which was basically about the first thing she asked. It was pretty obvious she’s trying to lighten the tone from what it had happened back at the White Hart Inn.

She sighed in relief that this was a comfortable day, because of the fact. It was her feet that made her somewhat sprint ahead of Luke who didn’t put on his shirt since she didn’t see if he was shirtless anyway. She was smiling mostly because of the fact, it was an obviously beautiful day, however. It was nice to see everyone was being quite jovial, playing cards and other such things but she was one of the more active people. She felt a slight bit a new person even though it was definitely odd but after a battle like they’ve been through was definitely needed. It took her a bit to look back at Luke and she noticed he was under dressed in terms of his shirt being off. ”The mystery of the world can’t handle you it seems Luke. But I guess I should say Happy Late Birthday I suppose?” Diana asked with a slight smile and a giggle leaving her mouth at what she said. It took her a bit to remember Ines also had a birthday but didn’t really want to bother her right now. She’s somewhat annoyed her birthday is in November of all things. ”My birthday is on November 15th...” Diana said, with a slight annoyance to her voice. It was pretty much obvious she accidentally blurted that out since now everyone knows her birthday is in November. Her family is all about birthdays it seems since she loved each and every single one of her birthdays.

Diana stopped in fear when she heard Captain Grumpus yell out Michael’s name. It was definitely a terrifying thing to hear him be completely furious about what’s going on. However, it clicked it was all about Lucia and Middleton’s obsession over her. It was definitely unpleasant conversation between Michael & Middleton but it seems like the raging inferno of Middleton subsided by the calm and collective of Michael. ”I didn’t think that would be possible… but I have a feeling he’ll be back to give us things to do.” Diana thought to herself. She waited to move or even sigh because Middleton was definitely a big deal, she wouldn’t want to die by someone wanting to blow off some steam. It felt like an age but she finally was able to breathe easier and she looked at Michael, it was in her eyes of thank god he’s gone. She did notice all the people who was reading letters, it made her a bit sad. She walked to where she was sitting down before she walked in a direction for a bit. It took her a bit but the soldier that was being bothered by Luke was finished.

The Soldier in question walked up to Diana, who was sitting down with a depressed expression on her face, however, he stopped and looked at her. “Ma’am are you Diana perchance?” The Soldier asked curiously because he did ask some of the people in the squad if they had seen Diana. It was definitely nice he caught up to her finally since she had a pretty big package.

”Yes, I am her… why?” Diana asked, curiously. She didn’t really was prepared for what was coming for her. The soldier in question gave her a package with the New Vastergoth Bakery’s Seal, which is the family seal of the Vastergoth Family themselves. It was definitely a shock to see the package, and attached to it was a letter. She instantly knew who it was from and wondered how or why it was here she hasn’t ever sent a letter back home. ”Uhhh, how?” Diana asked, shocked at what’s going on. The Soldier looked directly at her and just smiled with a bit of an oddity. This soldier in question just walked away and allowed her to open the package because he decided to get out of here. It was obvious why he got out of here he had to deliver the rest of his packages he had to the other soldiers that aren’t in Squad 1.

Diana sighed and looked directly at the package, since the New Vastergoth Bakery packaging works very well to keep everything fresher as if it was just baked. Nothing is left to chance for these baked goods, she opened the seal, which allowed her to get the Letter in question. She wanted to open the letter right away but she opened the package and saw something she thought she never would see again, her mother’s chocolate chip cookies. ”Mother… you shouldn’t have… I know I can’t eat all these cookies by myself.” Diana said, with a slight bit of shock in her voice while looking at the cookies all neat and tight in the packaging.

She noticed an oddity with the letter in question, as if it has an extra piece of paper in it. It specifically meant that her mother specifically wanted her to write back as soon as possible or else type of deal. ”Uhhh.. Shit… I don’t like how my mother is so prepared with her letters… It’s like she wants this letter returned to her as soon as possible.” Diana thought to herself, which was obviously a terrifying thing. She was definitely a bit flabbergasted and shocked all at the same time but she calmed down and opened the letter so she can read it.

Rebecca's Letter

Dear Diana,

Hello Daughter, it's your mother Rebecca. The one you've probably been constantly saying to everyone in your platoon or squad. It's sweet of you to do that since you've always been a talkative child about how sweet your family is and how they act towards everyone in Castleton. Gavin got something he's been working on, which shocked me some to see Amanda Reese Donster, Ashley's own daughter hanging around the Bakery as if she was homeless. However, it's pretty obvious your father told me that Amanda's own mother told her to change her beautiful black hair and I didn't believe him for one second. Why would my childhood friend do that to her own kid? It was a bit shocking to hear Gavin outright say to adopt the poor girl since the only people at the Donster Estate are literally the staff that are hired by the Donsters to work there. It saddens me that my childhood friend Ashley changed from being the kindhearted girl she was since she followed me everywhere to who she is now. It doesn't help that Derrick & Ashley are living in Vinland, I think their mansion is in the Darport Area. We've only been taking care of Amanda on the weekend since she said that Astra is staying in the Donster Estate. It's frustrating that Astra cut ties with us right after you were shipped out to EW1. I've been trying to figure that out ever since she had left us.

If you want to know about the New Vastergoth Bakery, it's doing very well. Ever since we've made it more streamlined it's been getting business from everywhere in Edinburgh. Been getting great sells from our 13 year old contract from the Factory in Castleton, the Fredrick Barr Association PLC, which manufactures the Carbonated Soft Drink that's orange in color. It's called Irn Castle, named after the city the factory was built in, still amazes me that that factory has been around for 13 years so far. Besides that Susan outright sends her best wishes to you, she's going to be married next year to a beautiful woman by the name of Dorothy van Ritter. It's going to be a wonderful time really when that happens, however you won't be able to see it since you are still in that blasted war.

Now the important topic I've been trying to neglect. But Diana, I am really angry at you for not saying goodbye to me when you had to leave to that Conscription Camp. I've been wondering why you left without saying goodbye and getting the Journal I bought for you before you had to leave. It is definitely pains me to say this but I miss you but can you think about your family's feelings before you do something stupid again? I'm extremely angry with you because I wanted to give you a hug before you went out to EW1 and tell you I love you. I'm telling you this, I do hope you come back from this awful war so we can be a family again.

After all, you are pretty forgetful and usually forget to write back every now and then even though you should have. Diana, I love you as a daughter and will never forgive the military if you die in the field. Promise me you will write back to me, after you are finished reading this letter I've painstakingly written out.

With Love,

Rebecca Liana Vastergoth

PS: I hope you haven't ruined our anniversary I will freaking yell at you when you do come home. It's a pretty important thing to keep going, no hangovers. If you did have a hangover oh so to help me god I will freaking yell at you for at least six freaking hours straight. However, your father will stop me before I get to six hours since you are officially all grown up when you will return to us.

PSS: Oh yeah please share those cookies I made for you, with your squad.

Diana finished reading the letter, which caused her to cry a bit uncontrollably because she didn’t know anything about what’s going on at home for one. It hit her all at once, all the emotions swelled to her because of the fact her mother wrote her and definitely made her feel bad for not saying goodbye or grabbing her journal. She slowly calmed down but couldn’t help but stay crying but she smiled when she definitely realized her mother wanted her to share her cookies with everyone. It filled her with a bit of a relief. ”M-Mother… why do you have to do this to me? I was actually having a good day but you ruined it… thank you for the cookies… at least.” Diana said, with a shaky voice to her whole thing. She knew she forgot something before going to the Conscription Camp that day but she couldn’t go to her mother Rebecca at that moment. It took her a bit and looked at everyone in her squad, however, she did notice that Lucia wasn’t here that made her a bit saddened. ”Uhhh… Do you want to try my mother’s chocolate chip cookies… they are one of the select choices from the New Vastergoth Bakery...” Diana said, addressing everyone in her squad, however she was fighting what she wanted to do. In terms of crying and sleep her day away since she couldn’t handle this at all.

She did notice on the package there was a pen, which was from her journal. Her mother was definitely a bright mother, however, it definitely made her feel slightly better since she didn’t want to borrow anyone else tools to write. She couldn’t help but shake a bit and waited for people to come up to her and get the cookies she has, however, she did start eating one of her mother’s cookies. It was definitely a cookie she missed and hopefully she’ll never miss one of these again. She definitely needs to get the recipe from her mother, however. It took her finishing the cookie to clam down and focus on what she needs to do, in terms of writing a letter to her mother Rebecca. It was definitely a shock that her elder sister Susie was going to get married next year to a very prominent Darscen Family in Castleton. ”I don’t know what I feel about our family adopting a Donster… but if Gavin taken a liking to Amanda… I’ll be a good older sister to her. Even though that story feels so false, why would a mother be that awful to their own child?” Diana thought to herself with a confused look on her face. She couldn’t help but give out a sigh while sitting down where she was sitting trying to be a bit happier. It was obvious, she wasn’t smiling anymore this shocked her a bit too much.
