The mayor of Selbina has been asking Pasifika to bring him copies of the texts in various stone monuments around Vana'diel for loo~ng, but Pasifika had only brought back few clay tablets for him so far. Now Pasifika finally decided to step up and find some more of them, and so she set out for a rare solitary adventure throughout the lands.
Pasifika gathered the clay tablets one by one, and at the same time she learned more and more about the history of Vana'diel, from the point of view of the earlier traveller.
His story about three tarutarus attacking a San d'Orian fortress in Sauromugue sounded strange, but thinking about it, didn't Pasifika just meet a horrible tarutrio from Tavnazia a little while ago..? Yes, it could have been their forefathers, no doubt. >_>
Pasifika passed many familiar places and sights. They reminded her of her earlier adventures, and the friends she had shared those adventures with. She also journeyed to some places previously unknown to her, and was easily distracted by the exciting and beautiful sights around her.
The flying (or hopping) flowers of La Theine Plateau slowed her down quite a bit, and a treasure chest in an interesting corner of Dangruf Wadi had her vanquishing goblins
for a good while to find out who had taken the key.Although Pasifika travelled alone, she did meet some friends and strangers on the way. Well, she saw the Selbina elder at every turn, but she also met a guard at the Pashhow outpost as she was passing by on her way to a stone monument.
This gyu really reinforced her idea of the outpost guards: he wouldn't even give Pasifika the time of day. How many times has a hapless adventurer knocked on the outpost's door, but not recieved the much-needed help? Similarily, the guards outside calmly observe poor adventurers fall to their feet, without as much as a wince of sympathy. Some guards... ;_;
When Pasifika decided to do a little time-travelling to shorten her trek, she was surprised by her faithful advenuring fellow Romidiant! :O Poor Romi had wondered into a cavernous maw, and had been unable to find his way back. What a stroke of luck that Pasifika happened to be passing just then!The mayor of Selbina just kept asking for more clay tablets. No, he had no idea where the monuments were... but one by one he "remembered" which ones he didn't have yet. And Pasifika fetched them for him, from the corners of the world.
