Title: [Event] Lost Tools
Post by: Pierre on February 26, 2014, 05:41:07 am
A few days ago in Hydlaa, a fenki named Wixer walked up to Harnquist's forge where many of the citizens were lounging about.  Wixer was not a complete stranger to everyone, having engaged in a set of dueling matches just the day before.  On this occasion, she needed help finding her stolen tools.

01:21:40) Jawir scratches his head.
(01:22:32) Kisoji nods to Jawir.
(01:22:48) Nicoletta looks around a bit nervously.
(01:23:00) Nicoletta puts a piece of blue hair in her mouth and chews it.
(01:23:16) Haraun turns his ears backwards "Quite crowded for a sleepy breakfast..."
(01:23:31) Kisoji says: It's evening, you twit.
(01:23:37) Kisoji says: Been asleep all day?
(01:23:42) Nicoletta looks at Kisoji and quickly away.
(01:24:24) Haraun shrugs "Awake when the hunt works best."
(01:24:44) Kisoji says: Like a true Enkidukai...

(01:25:21) Haraun hands another fish to Nicoletta.
(01:25:38) Nicoletta laughs, wrinkles her nose and accepts the gift.
(01:26:00) Nicoletta peeks under the table to smile at Haraun, then flings the fish into a nearby barrel.
(01:26:39) Nicoletta's stomach growls.
(01:26:43) Haraun takes a hearty bite, chews around and finally looks at Nicoletta again. Surprised that she already finished her fish, he hurries up himself "Tasty, no?"
(01:26:57) Nicoletta laughs and gets up to fish the fish out of the barrel.

(01:29:10) Nicoletta looks around for Xola.
(01:29:20) Haraun starts to lick his paws after finishing his fish.
(01:32:22) Nicoletta flicks her eyes back to Pilela and smiles at the robed figure.
(01:32:31) Nicoletta starts filing her nails.

(01:32:36) Kisoji watches the familiar fenki in the distance.
(01:32:50) Nicoletta hops up.
(01:33:13) Wixer looks around at the group of citizens gathered around the smith.
(01:33:16) Kisoji's eyes brighten as he looks to Wixer, his teeth baring themselves with a wicked grin.
(01:33:36) Nicoletta greets Wixer and gives an apprehensive look to Kisoji.
(01:33:47) Wixer looks over to Kisoji and smirks "Ah... it's you..."

(01:34:13) Kisoji says: I thought you'd have died in the wild by now.
(01:34:15) Wixer looks up to Nicoletta and briefly makes eye contact, smiling subtly.

(01:35:09) Wixer chuckles at Kisoji's comment, clearly amused.  "Fortunately for me Mr. Menki, I fare a lot better when facing Trepor!"
(01:35:28) Wixer says: Alas... Today I've had no time for hunting though...
(01:36:28) Wixer says: I had planned on crafting some blades... A keen hobby of mine, but unfortunately I've been unlucky and my tools have been stolen from me.

(01:36:43) Laros whistles quietly while he is hammering.
(01:36:48) Nicoletta narrows her eyes.
(01:37:04) Potare drinks some beer.
(01:37:04) Qter looks concerned.
(01:37:06) Haraun crosses his arms and mutters something about claws. Which he uses to pick up another fish from his bag.

(01:37:40) Qter says: Excuse me ma'am, do you have any idea who could steal your tools?
(01:37:47) Kisoji digs his tongue into the moist space between his gums and upper lip, as if fishing out a piece of old food that got caught up there. "Sounds rough, girl... Where'd you last have them?"

(01:38:40) Acerage listens eagerly while everyone else asks the obvious questions.
(01:38:45) Nicoletta casts revolted eyes upon Kisoji, and turns back to WIxer.
(01:39:25) Nicoletta says softly "I knew something like this would happen, thieves and scoundrels...."

(01:39:36) Wixer turns to Qter and Kisoji.  "They are in three sacks... I laid them down at the city gates before my last hunt.... Stupid I know, but when I returned they had vanished... I must get them back, they have one of a kind tools that I need for my craft work... If anyone would help me look I'd sure appreciate it... If you are interested I can give you some more details?”

(01:39:41) Resildren smiles and nods.
(01:40:05) Qter says: Sure thing!
(01:40:05) Wixer nods to Nicoletta.  "Indeed miss! Can't leave anything laying around these days…”
(01:40:29) Laros stops hammering and looks up for the call.
(01:40:40) Qter says: Please tell us more ma'am.
(01:40:51) Kisoji finds a morsel of old bread and spits it out, next to Resildren's foot. "Moron."
(01:41:01) Resildren listens intently.
(01:41:14) Lace listens too.

(01:41:19) Wixer stands up and stretches, a warm smile now spread across her face.  "Well, anyone who is up for helping me, please stand to my left.”

(01:41:26) Resildren glances at Kisoji.
(01:41:40) Kisoji says: Not you, elf, the hunter-crafter, extraordinaire.
(01:41:57) Nicoletta says: Yes, please tell us details.
(01:42:34) Wixer looks to the group and lowers her voice. "There are 3 sacks, I have a feeling they are within the Hydlaa city walls, you'll notice them because my name is written on the tags.”

(01:42:46) Acerage gently pushes off from his reclined position against the wall to join the group to the fenki's left.
(01:43:10) Wixer says: “I shall wait here for news of my belongings.”
(01:43:14) Qter nods at Wixer.
(01:43:28) Qter says: We will look for them!
(01:43:31) Nicoletta bites her newly filed fingernails.
(01:43:35) Nicoletta says: Should we split up?
(01:43:43) Qter departs and begins the searching.
(01:43:43) Wixer motions to the group "Thank you so much for this, it means a lot to me... I'll greatly reward anyone who brings me my sacks…”

(01:43:54) Kisoji mounts up.
(01:43:54) Nicoletta looks around.
(01:44:08) Lace seems ponder.

[At this point everyone scurries off, most on mounts, some poor creatures on foot - a call is heard in the distance, something about staying in touch via groffels, to keep everyone abreast of the status - no one listens, it’s like a flock of kikiri saw a menki with an axe, or a flock of menki saw a fenki with an axe and then saw her disappear with a mumur of “find me in Hydlaa, somewhere.”  In any case, we were dispersed to the winds.]

(01:51:16) [NPC] Menlil Toresun says: May Laanx frighten the shadow from thy path.

(01:51:42) Xola says: i found the bag in the place where Grimal usually loiters, near the North Gate of our great city.
(01:52:29) Qter says: Where was the first one found?
(01:52:36) Gova smiles. "Those were found rather quickly."
(01:53:12) Nicoletta looks a bit put out at this.

(01:53:15) Wixer looks at Qter and Xola. "Thank you so much for returning my tools, I cannot tell you how much this means to me!"

(01:53:26) Acerage smiles as he approaches. "With so many searching, three little sacks would be found quickly, wouldn't they?"
(01:53:40) Wixer looks to Acerage "Hopefully..."

(01:53:45) Nicoletta puts her chin down and starts to laugh, shoving the bag she found forward with a darling large foot.
(01:53:48) Wixer says: There is still one missing though?
(01:53:55) Qter says: Ma'am this young Noltrhir behind me found the last one left…
(01:54:06) Kisoji says: Use your eyes, you twit.
(01:54:27) Wixer takes the sack -  “Who found this one?"
(01:54:35) Nicoletta steps forward.
(01:54:44) Nicoletta laughs and points to herself.
(01:54:47) Acerage smiles, "Hard to count with everyone hanging about... or hanging onto them. Figured by the crowd alone.”
(01:54:52) Nicoletta says: It was close by but well hidden.
(01:54:56) Xola says: I found bag number two.
(01:55:02) Nicoletta says: I do believe the thieves know this realm well.

(01:55:04) Wixer offers Nicoletta a warm smile "Thank you very much my dear!"
(01:55:18) Nicoletta narrows her eyes and looks around, resting them a bit longer upon Kisoji than the others.
(01:55:25) Nicoletta turns to Wixer and smiles, quite happy.
(01:55:34) Nicoletta says: My pleasure.

(01:55:52) Qter says: Im happy we have undone evildoers deeds.
(01:56:00) Wixer says: This means I can continue to pursue my hobby as a crafter of fine blades.
(01:56:08) Kisoji narrows his eyes back at Nicoletta.
(01:56:28) Wixer says: Before I go, allow me to thank you for your efforts though.
(01:56:34) Qter nods and smiles to Wixer.
(01:56:41) Potare says: You’re welcome, mate.
(01:56:49) Wixer looks to Qter "Sir, are you an Axe fighter or Sword?"
f(01:57:03) Qter says: I’m a sword fighter, like yourself ma'am.

(01:58:00) Wixer offers Qter a paid of razor sharp blades "May these stand you well."

(01:58:11) Qter says: Wow!!!
(01:58:16) Qter says: Thank you so much ma'am!

(01:58:18) Wixer turns to Xola "Swords or axes my dear?"
(01:58:24) Nicoletta watches them glint in the light.
(01:58:32) Wixer nods to Qter "Well earned sir!"
(01:58:35) Qter pulls his sabres out and shows them off.
(01:58:46) Xola says: I’m skilled with swords.
(01:58:53) Qter says: They look incredibly nice!
(01:59:18) Xola says: Swords are my favorite weapons…

(02:00:03) Wixer hands Xola a paid of razor sharp blades. "May these protect you and keep you safe miss."

(02:00:19) Xola says: Thank you so much.
(02:00:30) Wixer nods to Xola "Enjoy miss."
(02:00:38) Nicoletta looks at the blades and smiles at her sister.
(02:00:52) Nicoletta says: Lucky girl, Xola.

(02:00:58) Wixer turns to Nicoletta "What will it be m’lady... Swords or Axes?"
(02:01:02) Nicoletta turns her eyes to WIxer.
(02:01:03) Xola says: These sabres are awesome.
(02:01:11) Nicoletta says: Axes, absolutely.

(02:02:03) Wixer nods "Of course, miss. Please accept these forged Axes as a note of my thanks and respect."
(02:02:20) Nicoletta can barely hold the axes but she looks at the fenki very sweetly.
(02:02:30) Nicoletta says: Thank you, Wixer, generous one.
(02:02:44) Wixer smiles contently "Enjoy!"

(02:02:58) Qter bows to Wixer and thanks her again. “Thank you, they are very splendid indeed!”
(02:03:17) Wixer says: The rest of you, please accept my gratitude, i really do appreciate everyone coming to the rescue like this!
(02:03:27) Jawir nods.
(02:03:30) Nicoletta laughs with pleasure.
(02:03:38) Resildren nods and smiles.
(02:03:39) Nicoletta says: Treasure hunts are the best.
(02:04:02) Resildren sighs
(02:04:08) Potare smilies and takes a rather large swing of his beer mug
(02:04:08) Lace bows to Wixer, smiling at her with his large white teeth on full display.
(02:04:33) Gova chuckles. "I"ll take any chance to ride around Hydlaa like a lunatic."

(02:05:01) Acerage beams happily at the fenki, "Any service rendered is it's own reward, I think. Congratulations on their successful recovery."

(02:05:09) Wixer makes a humble bow to the group "Now if you'll excuse me, I need to get back to my craft! Thank you all once again for saving the day!"

[Fenki exit stage left.]

(02:05:12) Nicoletta drops her axes in case anyone wants to admire.
(02:05:28) Nicoletta waves to Wixer, distracted by the shiny axes.
(02:05:29) Kisoji admires.
(02:05:52) Nicoletta says: Xola, darling sister, can I see your blades?
(02:05:58) Xola says: Sure.
(02:06:06) Lace looks Nicoletta’s axes in admiration, perhaps admiring her as well.
(02:06:28) Xola shows her shiny new sabres.
(02:06:32) Nicoletta nods.
(02:06:44) Nicoletta says: Lovely.
(02:06:47) Kisoji says: I'll buy them from you, girl.
(02:06:48) Jawir says: Nice indeed!
(02:06:52) Potare smiles. “Neat.”
(02:06:55) Lace removes his gaze from Nico’s axes to look at Qter’s sabres in admiration.
(02:07:06) Kisoji cocks a brow at Nicoletta.
(02:07:09) Qter smiles
(02:07:15) Kisoji says: How about it?
(02:07:24) Qter bows and goes
(02:07:33) Kisoji says: What's a pretty little thing like you need axes for anyway?

[They must be good blades if Kisoji is chatting up a water elf to get to them.  Anyway, so we end on a cliff hanger...]

[É finito.  Grazie mille Tazen, you are so awesome.  I thought the bag Nicoletta found was the best hidden, behind the fence between Hydlaa and the Arena.  Anyone who doesn’t like how I lightly edited, just let me know I will change it up.  To my knowledge, the only thing I changed was something(s) that Lace said.  Cheers, all, well done  :love:]

As a German, I find the name "Wixer" a little bit offensive. Just as hispanic people wonder about the Mitsubishi "Pajero". ;)

Now I'm curious about what Lace said  :D

As a side note, LigH, imagine my surprise when I found that my character's name "Boeven", assigned by server, had another meaning in Dutch (https://translate.google.it/?hl=it&tab=wT#nl/en/Boeven)

Seems to be slang, not all online dictionaries I tried returned something useful. But hey, what could be less suspicious than a preference for apples?!... And aren't we all a bit of a crook sometimes?

As an American, I find it hilarious.

So I hope you will once watch a translation of the german Edgar Wallace parody "Der Wixxer (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0313021/)". That is, if anything, hilarious! ;D

Bringing back such small and nice events is fantaztic.
