Into the Emptyness

All of a sudden everyone in the LS seemed to be doing Promyvions, because something called 'Minotaur run' was being planned and the Promys had to be done for that. But all that had nothing to do with Pasifika, right?
Well, that was the case until Phucrabiont asked Pasifika if she'd be interested in doing Promyvion-Holla. Um... well... sure, it would be interesting - Pasifika has never believed what they say about curiosity killing the cat. ^^; This time curiosity did lead to unexpected results, though... o_O

Practically all day before the Promy Pasifika tried to get ready (although she was constantly distracted by the Easter event ^^;) because there had been some quite unsettling rumours about Promyvion-Holla... that it was the most difficult of the three, that people often failed it, that some had tried to get through for years with no success...

Finally Pasifika was ready and it was time for the Promyvion. Everyone gathered together and luckily Pasifika found herself in good company: it turned out 4 of the six had already done it. ^^;

Pasifika teleported the party to La Theine Plateau. Inside, General Phucrabiont lead everyone through the bizarre levels and although poor Pasifika was somewhat upset about people getting killed on the way, everybody else said that was normal. o_o; All things considered, the climb actually went quite smoothly.

At the top awaited the boss, but Phucrabiont explained the strategy carefully before the fight and the party was victorious. :D While Pasifika went on to enjoy the cutscene, three members of the party picked a fight with the Empty NM and beat it with ease... O_o Obviously, it was an incredibly tough party. ^_^

Promyvion-Holla would have been enough excitement for the whole week for Pasifika, but the other two Promyvions were immediately scheduled for the following nights. @_@ So, the following night Pasifika entered Promyvion-Mea, but after two unsuccessful attempts the party had to give up and call it a day. To compensate for that, they breezed through both Mea and Dem the next night. ^^;

The Promyvions had been enchanting but rather gloomy places, and Pasifika was happy to reach the beautiful Lufaise Meadows in Tavnasia after the last ordeal. For some reason the weather there seemed to be overcast or even stormy much of the time, though.

The Tavnazian Stronghold seemed like a maze at first, but after some exploration it turned out to be quite small. Despite that, there's no shortage of people with tragic pasts, but that's only to be expected from a place that was pretty much destroyed in the war. Finding a new place to explore was all Pasifika wanted, but the others... they were itching to kill a Minotaur. ^^;

So, Pasifika ended up making preparations for one more fight the best she could... When the others started to gather for the run she tagged along and after a long wait, a brief but intense fight and some wandering around she was ready for some more cutscenes.

Although the Minotaur fight was definitely the most unpleasant one of the four runs, Pasifika may be doing it again some time soon, because Donthitme was unable to take part in it - leave no Tarutaru behind! Well, there's some anima left, too, and it would be a shame to throw it away, so Pasifika may have to do a Promyvion, too... ^^; Hopefully there's some time for peaceful rest before any re-runs... ;^.^;
