Double Trouble

After a lo~~ng absence, Pasifika returned to adventuring, and everything had changed. The first strange thing she studied was this new "Trust magic". The Tarutaru explained it, kind of, and then sent Pasifika on a quest to gather "ciphers" from people participating in the program. It sounded a bit odd, but don't most quest...

Whatever it is, if it can duplicate Tarutarus, it can't be that bad, right?

 

I suppose there might be some complications when cloning royalty or other prominent figures...

Which one of you is first in line for succession, then?

Or infamous thieves....

You just want an alibi, is that it?

And....

Shantotto. 

Enough said.

All others joined Pasifika because they share a history with her, and she was able to think very warm and trusting thoughts about them, but Shantotto... she has her own ways. Ways which are very very dangerous (to others, not to herself, of course). I suppose she had to come up with something of her own, since "warmth" in connection with Shantotto means something like Flare to most people.

Even with Shantotto added to the mix, summoning these new fellows on the field was very interesting and a lot of fun. Romidiant didn't seem to mind, even though the newcomers were in Pasifika's party, while Romidiant has never been able to join the party at all.

Me and THIS army!

A refreshing nap

"Mercenaries are trained to sleep anywhere, 

anytime if the opportunity presents itself."

Naja Salaheem

Pasifika seems to be an exemplary mercenary, considering how soundly she napped through a very important meeting of some of the most powerful beings in these parts of the world!

Someone else took some naps as well... but he soon got back up. Rarely has Pasifika fought against anyone who actually has the common sense to have reraise on... look, he's getting up again!

But perhaps all those weird events were a dream... the mission, fighting, meeting some very important people (and they though Pasifika's regular adventuring attire was good and proper enough for such a meeting - well, without her weapons)...

...getting back the crown Pasifika was awarded earlier...

But apparently it was a nightmare, after all, because there was Naja's signature engraved inside Pasifika's shiny crown. D:

Experiences

While Pasifika's white mage doesn't need experience points anymore, there's always use for merit points... I guess. And - more importantly - Romidiant can use the exp, and he likes to get out of the city once in a while anyway. So, an alliance of four adventurers and four adventuring fellows set out to kill about - or a bit over - 100 monsters. It was easy!

 

 Also easy was roaming around Ronfaure as level 1-7 ranger, with the cutest little tarutaru red mage. There are probably smarter ways to gain experience, but running around and killing everything that moves is a very fun way to do it - removes stress nicely~

And also adds levels!
Just wait for me, my "forest friends", this melee-range ranger is coming, slowly but surely...

The Kinq of Tonberries

Deep within the tempe of Uggla... Uggel... Ugly is a massive throne, just waiting for someone to sit on it:

 Officially, it's the seat of a very special Tonberry, zee Tonberry Kinq. 

(Yes, Kinq.)

But sometimes there's some competition for the throne.....

 Let's fill this place with Tarutarus and call it the Temple of Cute!

Come, my minions...
