Besieged, yet again

Finally Pasifika's hard efforts are starting to pay off! She has faithfully defended poor Al Zahbi on countless occations, but all the Serpent Generals have had to say are grunts, or even insults! D: Not anymore...

Well, Gadalar is still his usual self, looking down on the little adventure/mercenary, but Najelith, Rughadjeen and Zazarg are so happy to see Pasifika! :D They have confidence in Pasifika's abilities, and Rughadjeen even went as far as declaring it's an honour to fight by Pasifika's side. ^_^ That's more like it!

It's just that... Mihli... ;_; She has been Pasifika's favourite, because she's a white mage and all, but recently Pasifika found out some surprising things. Mihli has... a past. >_>

That would be ok, Pasifika also has an embarassing past (as a total n00b), but the way Mihli handled the situation... -_- Doesn't she trust Pasifika one bit!? ,o_o,

Pasifika will still be there to defend her, but for now, Mihli's mithra fan club can keep her company while waiting for the attacks - Pasifika is warmly welcomed elsewhere.


How did Pasifika come across the intreresting - and sometimes secret - stories about the Serpent Generals' past? Well, it was all because of this one tarutaru bard, Fari-Wari the Egotistical... He had already made Pasifika do some of his work earlier - and then claimed all the glory for himself - and now he planned to use Mihli's story for purposes that were definitely not dignified enough for it! He also tried to dump his debtors on poor Pasifika, and then had her do some more of his work for him... but who could resist these tarutaru puppy eyes? There there, don't cry little taru... ^^;;

Well, no wonder the Serpent Generals want Pasifika to defend their city... when the Besieged started, there was no one to be seen! o_o Just Pasifika... and the attacking Mamool Ja army. >_> Oh, there was an abandoned flock of wyvers... if they follow Pasifika home, can she keep them?
Luckily, another of Al Zahbi's seasoned defenders also appeared, General Phucrabiont! As a deadly ninja he quickly moved from enemy to enemy, defeating them one by one. Not *all* alone, though - Pasifika was there, too! x) She was pretty efficient even by herself, and the mobs she approached often died even before she had finished casting. ^^;

And here's some more on the topic of Mihli and her, erm, past:

Warning #1: Although the material from cutscenes has been rearranged and some even altered, this contains spoilers for those who haven't completed Mihli's quest.
Warning #2: Although there's material from the cutscenes, it's all so jumbled up you probably won't know what's going on if you haven't completed Mihli's quest. ;P
