Your command was to come to the mining town of Eiba and go to the cathedral, which is the center of military operations as well as religious events in most Chandurian cities. Eiba is far away from the border, being in the eastern part of Chandury Major. (Chandury Major is the larger part of Chandury. It's south of the Isthmus of Chandury, and therefore very well protected. The smaller part of Chandury north of the Isthmus is called, naturally, Chandury Minor.) You're to report in about an hour from now, but you have time to buy equipment or do other stuff in the town.

a) Report in (Story Mode)
b) Check out the town (Shops, Armory, etc.)

b) Check out the town (Shops, Armory, etc.)

**Prince Toad** · 07-21-2005, 12:36 AM

Here's what you can find:

a) Armory-- buy physical weapons, armor, and shields.
b) Divine Armory-- buy magical weapons and armor.
c) General Store-- buy items.
d) Stables-- buy mounts, barding, and mount-related gear.
e) Tavern-- have a drink, chat with the locals. Good place to find out world events.
f) Blessed Arena-- fight practice battles. These are not lethal, but you won't get any experience. You can, however, bet on them.
g) Church of the Faith-- get yourself healed.
h) Cathedral-- report in for assignment.

ZIPPYDIPPY19 · 07-21-2005, 01:06 AM

Armory

**Prince Toad** · 07-21-2005, 02:50 AM

Here's what you can use. Acolytes can use both physical and magical armor, which is nice for you, since you get more options. They can use swords, maces, and magic weapons (wands and staves). I guess I can just post the magic stuff here too, since it saves you a pointless post and me a pointless update.

ZIPPYDIPPY19 · 07-21-2005, 02:25 PM

Just a Heavy Mace and a set of Adept's Robes for now. Then I'll head over to the General Store.

**Prince Toad** · 07-21-2005, 02:53 PM

ZIPPYDIPPY19 · 07-21-2005, 05:30 PM

Well darn, guess I'll just head straight to the Cathedral then.

**Prince Toad** · 07-22-2005, 01:24 PM

You exit the store and go to the Cathedral. Two Spearmen guard the gates.

Spearman: You're here on official business?

You nod.

Spearman: Alright, just let me check with Via. What's your name?
Beneion: My name's Beneion. I was told to come here. Via sent me a message.
Spearman: Great. Hold on.

He walks inside and returns a short time later.

Spearman: Yep, you're approved. Head on in. Via's waiting inside.
Beneion: Okay, thanks.

The Spearman opens the door and steps aside. You enter and close the door.

You're in a small foyer. The doorway to your right is marked PRAYER HALL; the doorway to your left is marked MILITARY CENTER (RESTRICTED). A woman about your age, wearing some fancy armor and holding an elaborate two-handed sword, is standing in the left doorway.

Via: Hello. As Gorman probably told you, I'm Via. You're Beneion, I take it?
Beneion: Yes.
Via: Excellent. I see you've bought yourself some equipment already. Hm...

She looks you over.

Via: Yes, you seem capable. Let's get right to it. As you may or may not have heard, one of our mining shafts here is infested with foul creatures. They drove out the miners, and we fear that the rest of the mine may become infested if we do not take action. Your task is to enter the shaft and clear out the creatures. We have no reason to believe they are particularly dangerous, but they are obviously not harmless. You should also try to find the root cause of the problem, if possible. I've brought thirty gold pieces from the treasury, in case you need to buy an ether or something. You'll receive double that upon your successful return. We'll also give you a small potion from supplies. If you have no other questions, you may proceed to the mine. Just take a left from here and walk straight. ...oh! I almost forgot. Take this badge. It shows that you're on the official business of Chandury. Do not lose it. Show the badge to the guard at the entrance to the mine, he'll escort you in and take you to the infested shaft. If you need a torch, ask for one. You'll be on your own from there. So unless you have any questions...

MISSION: Clear the infested mine shaft!

ZIPPYDIPPY19 · 07-22-2005, 05:59 PM

I'll take the torch, go buy a small ether, thenhead for the mineshaft.

**Prince Toad** · 07-23-2005, 01:05 PM

You head out the door and take a left, then walk straight forward, as Via had told you. After ten minutes' walk, the road ends, and the gate to the mine is directly in front of you. There's another Spearman guarding the gate.

Spearman: Hi. Who are you, sir?
Beneion: I'm the one they sent to clear out the mine shaft.
Spearman: Ah, great. May I see your badge?
Beneion: Sure.
Spearman: ...I see. Well then, you may proceed. Ah-- what's your name, sir?
Beneion: My name's Beneion.
Spearman: Beneion... okay. Well then, Beneion, go ahead in. There will be someone waiting for you.

The Spearman unlocks the gate and opens it for you. You head past him for a bit. You see a few miners standing at the entrance to the mine, talking with each other. One looks up and, noticing your equipment, salutes.

Miner: Sir! You're here for the infested mine shaft?
Beneion: Yes, show me the way. But first, could I have a torch?
Miner: Sure, take this one.

He grabs a torch from a rack on the wall, lights it with an already-burning torch nearby, and hands it to you.

Miner: Follow me.

He leads you through the mine for about fifteen minutes. It's not a very complex route, but there are a few twists and turns. He stops at the entrance to one of the shafts.

Miner: Here it is. The shaft goes straight forward and then splits, but it doesn't matter which way you go. Both tracks curve back and rejoin the other track. Then it's straight for a while, with a small turn at the end. We were digging there when the creatures came. I'll wait for you outside-- I don't want to go in there. Good luck, sir.

ZIPPYDIPPY19 · 07-23-2005, 04:18 PM

I'll take the left path, sticking close to the wall with my weapon ready.

**Prince Toad** · 07-24-2005, 01:32 PM

You advance down the hall towards the fork. Soon you encounter a shambling, groaning corpse. You heft your mace and engage it.

BATTLE!

Beneion
Acolyte
HP: 70/70
MP: 65/65

VS.

Kristov
Zombie
HP: 50/50
MP: 10/10

Your turn.

ZIPPYDIPPY19 · 07-24-2005, 02:27 PM

Smack him with my mace.

**Prince Toad** · 07-24-2005, 04:07 PM

You use Attack. Deals 13 damage.

Kristov uses Attack. Deals 9 damage.

Beneion's HP: 61/70
Kristov's HP: 37/50

Your turn.

By the way, you'll usually regain lost HP and MP at the end of a battle. If you aren't going to, I'l tell you that. Right now you will.

ZIPPYDIPPY19 · 07-25-2005, 12:24 AM

Oh, fun. In that case I'll cast the shield version of Stalwart Faith.

**Prince Toad** · 07-25-2005, 12:39 AM

Beneion casts Stalwart Faith (Shield).

Kristov uses Lurching Strike. Hits! Deals 10 damage to Beneion. Deals 5 damage to Shield.

Beneion's HP: 51/70
Beneion's MP: 50/65
Shield's HP: 25/30
Kristov's MP: 5/10

Your turn.

ZIPPYDIPPY19 · 07-25-2005, 01:49 AM

Attack

**Prince Toad** · 07-26-2005, 08:36 PM

Beneion uses Attack. Deals 13 damage.

Kristov uses Attack. Deals 4 damage to Beneion. Deals 5 damage to Shield.

Beneion's HP: 47/70
Shield's HP: 20/30
Shield: 4 turns
Kristov's HP: 26/50

Beneion's turn.

By the way, holy magic does a lot vs. undead. Dark magic does a lot vs. holy creatures like your summon, but zombies can't cast that (though other undead may be able to).

Soon you encounter a shambling, groaning corpse. You heft your mace and engage it. BATTLE! Beneion Acolyte HP: 70/70 MP: 65/65 VS. Kristov Zombie HP: 50/50 MP: 10/10 Your turn.

Deals 13 damage. Kristov uses Attack. Deals 9 damage. Beneion's HP: 61/70 Kristov's HP: 37/50 Your turn. By the way, you'll usually regain lost HP and MP at the end of a battle. If you aren't going to, I'l tell you that. Right now you will. [ July 25, 2005, 12:38 AM: Message edited by: Prince Toad ]

Deals 13 damage. Kristov uses Attack. Deals 4 damage to Beneion. Deals 5 damage to Shield. Beneion's HP: 47/70 Shield's HP: 20/30 Shield: 4 turns Kristov's HP: 26/50 Beneion's turn. By the way, holy magic does a lot vs. undead. Dark magic does a lot vs. holy creatures like your summon, but zombies can't cast that (though other undead may be able to).
