Character sheet: http://pastebin.com/bEAu807 Micheal (please read, new info!)

Your name is Micheal Hile, Prince of the Central Human Empire. You're eating breakfast with one of your closest friends, Ja'al, who is explaining the events in another country.

"...And so she and the local government have decided to attempt to discover how her magical Eye works, and replicate it. Failing that, they aim to use it to eradicate the Unholy in the area one by one." Ja'al says, as you both eat breakfast. He gestures with his fork as he finishes.

You lean back in your chair, absorbing the information. The familiar soreness from daily training pricks at your back and upper arms, but you admit you're getting more and more used to it, the steady pain no longer really a concern. More of a concern is the feeling of something going wrong and not knowing what it is. "Honestly, Micheal, Annelin and Monica have shown multiple times they can handle themselves." Ja'al says. "If I worried for Gina every time she went on a hunt, I'd be flying circles around my tower out of nerves. Focus on your training."

You nod, he's right. So where is this feeling of 'wrong' coming from...?

>I should investigate the matter of the Lord of Lords some more.
>I should go and train some more with my blades, maybe spar with that guy from the arena again?
>I should talk to Father.
>I should ask after Harumda or Garibaldi.

Apologies for slowness. Head feels like it'll split open.

You train again, stepping out into the training grounds. It's even more fully-featured than before - a sand-filled sparring pit, with wooden walkways surrounding. Racks of practice weapons stand all around, with benches interspersed. You move fluidly, steadily, in practiced steps. Some girls among the help slow their work to watch, and you find yourself grinning as you move, discarding your shirt as you begin to sweat.

You're proud of the fruits of your labours - well, Annelin's labours, really. You have definition to your muscles now, powerful, wire-like things. You're still slim, but you feel and look strong.

"Good. You're still showing that enthusiasm after so long." a familiar voice states. Deckard. He steps with easy grace, healed from his encounter with a demon, cleansed of any residual emotion from its touch. Still, though - you can feel the jealousy ooze from him and the way he's trained you. Rough and harsh, worse than Sarl, for hours and hours every day. You put him on his back once of all eight times you've sparred, and you're still not sure it wasn't a fluke.

He waves off the girls, stepping onto the sand.
"I was hoping to get you to do a training weapon spar with me. I want to be sure your defenses are up to scratch."

>I only really have energy for forms today.
>As soon as you put aside your old torch, sir.
>Certainly. With or without armor?
>Certainly. With armor.
>Certainly. No armor.

No need to be snarky with the help until after we secure our right to the crown.

Though, if you guys are feeling up to it...

Challenge: Deckard gets armor, we don't.

if you're not feeling well, maybe you should take another day off?

Don't worry. So long as I don't do much with my head itself, it's not that bad. Just can't laugh. Or talk. Or sneeze.

Fuck sneezing.


"Certainly, with or without armor?"

He tosses you the practice weapons, and even as you catch them, he's on you with his own - a wooden version of his own.
"Yes." he says, weapon coming down from above. You've barely time to block it before his foot touches your belly. You start to back away - but he takes advantage and pushes you over, grinning as he leaps high. "Until we tire!"

You scrabble away from his leaping attack, getting up in time to ready your weapons.

>Prepare to avoid his next blow, play defensively. (Mind)
>Rush him down - use both blades to ensure a blow! (Might)

This is the worst thing ever.

ok


Also! Why did Ja'al say to Annelin that there were only three tribes of demons before if he knew there were seven?

You find yourself grinning. He's preventing you from armoring yourself, while remaining in his padded outfit. In other words...

He's acting like an assassin. You slip away from attack after attack, deflecting them with tiny strikes as your feet dance over the sands. A month ago you wouldn't be able to do this. Two months ago, you wouldn't even be out here.

Finally, he comes at you with a powerful overhead attack, and you deflect it with shocking ease, sending it into the sands. His weapon is the same as always - a long blade with an exagerrated hilt and guard, allowing him to weild it like either a sword or an axe at will.

You have a bare moment as his weapon slaps the sand.

>Move in and attack! (Might)
>Stand back, this might be a trap. (Mind)

>>Stand back, this might be a trap. (Mind)

But aim very low, so you can divert any counterstrike he delivers.

You raise your knee and strike him in the face, grinning as he stumbles away and you swing with your weapon, cracking him across the shoulder. He barely gets his weapon up before you rain a few more blows to his arms, planting your boot in his chest and hauling to to ground. You plant your wooden spikes on either side of his neck, grinning.

"Dead man."

Deckard scoffs.
"You're learning fast. Now gerroff."

You rise from him and he eyes you as he dusts off. "I think you've learned all I've to teach you, prince." he says, "Just keep up as you are."

You frown. You still aren't sure your skill matches with father...

Ask Gina. For one, she knows the King. For another, she must have had fought dangerous things before.

Harumda is the Warrior Demon right?

Also the one who can let Annelin speak and act through him?

Is our maternal grandfather still in town, and had Karl ever learned how to sword?

it is with a heavy heart and a pounding skull that I must admit that while the mind is willing, the body does not wish to carry on. My internet is additionally wildly fluctuating, as well.

To all those who arrived, thank you for your participation.

To those looking at the archive, I apologize for the super short thread.
>>
>>32173874
Go and rest, dude. Don't torture yourself over this. We'll keep the thread alive until later, if you wish
>>
>>32173874
s'all good bro, thanks for the thread so far

any idea when next will be? back to regular schedule or a different time?
>>
>>32173893
That won't be necessary.

I am considering deeply moving this quest to tgchan, where there is less pressure on a single thread. However, given my forays into similar locations such as akun, the lack of that may lead to fewer, if larger updates. tgchan also has stronger text formatting capabilities, including bold, italics, colors, and the like, as well as no character limit - or pretty close to it. A built in archive for the site without a risk of misarchival, user IDs to prevent samefagging... There's a lot about tgchan, simply from a quest author standpoint, that makes it tempting.

However, I understand that many people don't like the place, hence why I'm allowing the players to decide - Should I stay here? Or shall we migrate?


If migration occurs, I will use the Twitter for update announcements instead of session announcements. Updates will be generally longer, but less frequent.

>>32173915
Old schedule had sun/mon off, so I ran Sundays. New schedule is Fri/Sat. So I will run Saturdays, assuming I don't migrate (see above).

Not to mention that tgchan is my old stomping grounds. I know the site better in general.
>>
>>32174028
I'm happy with things as they are here and don't mind losing the improvements tgchan or Akun have over posting here, I'd prefer it stayed here.
>>
>>32174028
I've never been to tgchan. I don't mind if we tried it out.
>>
>>32174028
>Larger updates
>Actual formatting
>No samefaggotry

I'll take it.
>>
>>32174028
Go away EGO.
>>
>>32174028
does it have auto-updating? because I've no problems with how things are on /tg/ and would not want to lose what the inline extension and 4chan X give me
>>
>>32174028
speaking of Akun, is pokefantasia dead?
>>
>>32174028
Never used it

But seriously dude, people don't fall asleep or have the migraines for nothing. Get youself checked or rested or whatever.
>>
>>32175414
did he even eat?
>>
>>32174028
I'd rather not move somewhere else.
>>
I'd rather you just rest and rest some more. Get ten hours' sleep, you'll feel much better.
