Chapter V

Cometfall was an elderly player which through Rampage off immediately. After some coercing, Komodo and Michael were able to talk her down and let him speak his peace. The wizard had been playing the game since it came out. He explained that he had seen much of the effects that the evil spirit Cerberus has inflicted on the lands of Archaic Venture. Apparently, the spirit had a proclivity for destroying entire villages. The villagers survived, but the buildings, farms, and woodland areas surrounding the towns burnt. To Rampage, Komono, and Michael this didn’t seem very relevant; however, after a little more explanation, Cometfall revealed that the woodland areas, the farms, and the mining buildings helped players procure wood, grain, and ore. These three elements are essential for players who want to level up faster. Players can use the materials to purchase better weapons and armor; thus, making their player much more prepared to face off against such a formidable beast as Cerberus. Not to mention, the further along a farm, mining station, or lumberjack business comes, the more experience a player gains. This will help a player level up faster than just fighting other players or monsters.

“Why are you telling us all of this?” Rampage questioned. Michael was learning very quickly that she was always skeptical of others.

“Do I need a reason?” Cometfall answered.

“In my experience,” Rampage continued. “People have a motive for everything that they do.”

Cometfall took a moment and contemplated this statement. “I suppose you are right; I do have a motive.”

“Do tell,” Rampage said.

“Hey Rampage,” Michael said. “Not everyone is out to get us, do you think we could give this guy the benefit of the doubt?”

“Fine,” Rampage said. “You two take a chance on this guy. I’ll meet you two at Raven Haven. I’ll be at the market seeing what I can get for this mallet.”

“Alright,” Komodo offered. “We will be there shortly.”

Rampage lumbered off into the distance. Within seconds she was out of sight due to the rolling hills. Now that they had some space between her, Cometfall continued, “She isn’t very trusting is she?”

“I don’t think she has completely made up her mind about me yet either,” Michael said. “I wouldn’t pay it much attention. What were you saying about your motive?”

“Well,” Cometfall said. He took a moment to collect his thoughts before continuing. “I have been playing this game for more than two weeks now. I have a lot of time on my hands, so it is all I do. And, now that Cerberus has started its reign over these lands, the game is no longer fun for me. I love my wizard and do not wish to give him up, so I do not see myself going after it myself, but I saw promise in you three at the bar fight. You three worked well together to defeat your foe. Do you plan on attempting the ultimate quest?”

Komodo and Michael looked at each other before answering. Neither of them wanted to
