I am a creature of the night, and thus around at times when most are asleep. Sometimes this leads to people being far more daring than normal, and much activity around the banks and spawns. But many a night has passed when it seemed all life had mysteriously vanished from our world.

This is a tale of one of those nights.

I was making my nightly rounds, stopping by Luna in the off chance a lone crafter, or perhaps even a pvp squad might show. But what do I find? A pair of players, one of them quite obviously new, and the other just stopping by to take a new order from the local tailor.

*smiles* looks like the new guy hasn't gotten my lesson in "why not to banksit on siege" yet.

I decide to take it easy on this one though. (possibly aided by the fact that I'm out of shuriken), and teach him a lesson that does not require immediate medical aid. Sifting through his belongings, I find nothing but a rusty old dagger. Perhaps it has sentimental value? Unable to see it clearly, I take it for a closer look.

After a brief inspection, I toss the dagger back towards him, but seemingly unaware that anything had happened, he ignores it as it falls to the ground. Perhaps he's just sad? I know! I'll play him a song!

After a few minutes of my music, he mysteriously vanishes from the world! I knew my playing wasn't great but I was unaware of that effect... Oh well, nobody to play with here, time to move on to my normal hunting grounds...

DAMN! Not a soul to be found, the area is so clear it's doubtful anyone has been here within the past day, but maybe I'll have better luck if I continue on..

Slightly better..someone had been here, but the trail was cold, they've been gone for hours... damn, looks like I won't be getting closer to those 120 scrolls I need today. With my primary hunting locations shot, I decide to head back to luna, maybe I can have a bit of fun with that person from earlier that was collecting orders..

Still nothing good...and he's been here for quite a while. Maybe he's lost and needs a gate? I decide to help the poor soul out..

I guess not...

Nothing I could really do now, I decide to head home for a bit and rest.

With such calm as today I can only gather that a storm is brewing, and will be upon us soon. But for now, I can only sit and wait.. (At least I have a very nice chair to do so in)
