  1. When I get home, I''ll get a post out. Hopefully using my iron sword will let me hit twice (and dodge) Also Rosa why won't you doooooooooooooooodge
  2. The flames of Rosalvya's companion seemed to reach the enemy faster than she could, the blaze scorching the creature. The fire was effective, as the enemy dropped the man in panic, attempting to put out the fire in futility. But the might of Serene's flames ended its life, causing it to collapse to the ground once and for all. Rosalvya could hear Meredith call out for Saffron, as her wide mobility could safely evacuate the soldier. If he was even alive at that point. But there was one final threat, looming over them. The lone figure that stood in place for the entire battle. Now that all its minions were defeated, would it finally make its move? Rosalvya wouldn't let that happen. She would strike first, ensuring that Saffron had a safe route to reach the dying soldier. "I'm going on ahead," she said to Serene. "Please stay by that man's side until Saffron reaches him. He may already be breathing his last." Move to J5 and attack ???.
  3. That was what I was thinking, but maths could prove me wrong. If Serene can, great! Hopefully Pyon will let me change my action. If not, that fighter is more dead than dead.
  4. Rosalvya breathed a sigh of relief, as she could hear the clamor of the battle behind her die down. She could freely focus on saving the kidnapped soldier. She could see their new companion approach closer with the same goal in mind. These creatures didn't seem like they held anything close to mercy, so she worried about whether the soldier was even alive or not. She pushed that thought to the back of her mind.As she saw the flames swirl up and launch towards the enemy, Rosalvya too, rushed forward to finish the enemy. Move to M8 and Attack Fighter 5
  5. Hmm, does Serene have enough damage to finish off that Fighter alone? If so, I can just beeline for the boss.
  6. "You can leave it up to me," she told Meredith. "Everyone, please stay safe." If they could trust her with saving the man in the distance, she could trust her allies to watch her back. Rosalvya dashed forward without looking back, past her allies who were engaging the ones that blocked their path. As Rosalvya headed further north, she could feel the ominous presence grow stronger. It gave her the chills, as if she could feel its gaze bearing down upon her. The hooded figure almost appeared to be mocking them, as it stood there watching them struggle. She had an idea of what was in store for the kidnapped soldier if she didn't stop his assailant. She kept a wary eye on the cloaked figure, as she waited for the kidnapper to draw closer. Move to K7, and active Wind upon the Leaf.
  7. After dealing two swift blows to the lance user, Rosalvya retreated, only to find herself caught by the length of the lance. She grimaced, as the spear tore through flesh, leaving her wounded. Hoshiko dashed towards them, providing a little cover fire for her retreat. However, it wasn't enough to fell the soldier. Rosalvya felt that the next strike would be the determining blow, for the both of them. As she braced for the soldier to attack, it suddenly changed it's target, running off in the opposite direction instead. A little confused, but relieved that she didn't have to fight. Her wound had put her in a perilous situation, making it uncertain if she could dodge. The soldier charged towards Klaren, only to be reduced to ash by his magic. Rosalvya breathed a little sigh of relief, as she tried to catch her breath. The fighting in the distances seem to have calmed down significantly, indicating that both sides had finished their battles. She trusted that her other allies had won their end of the fight, but she couldn't say the same for the soldiers who were holed up in the eastern village. At Meredith's suggestion, she gave a nod, heading towards her. She would only hope that those soldiers had found their way to safety. Taking the extra time of respite, Rosalvya applied the vulnerary to her wound. Move to J11 and use Vulnerary
  8. For starters, I would say that your descriptions are rather simplistic. Not necessarily a bad thing, but something that can be improved! I'm just going to address two things though. An odd place to start describing yourself, but let's address simplicity. What makes it so special about your clothes or your appearance? If I said, "He wore a black shirt", it doesn't exactly draw your reader. Perhaps something like "I hastily threw on a white blouse shirt, not bothering to straighten out the creases and wrinkles in them. I took my black vest to go on top of it because tonight felt like it was going to be chilly." I added some little details to the shirt, but those details also say something about you as a person, or the situation as well. Those small details you couldn't care for, because you desperately wanted to get out of the house. The second sentence indicates that the speaker may be outside for a while. Although I never specifically indicated these details, they can be implied just from reading it. Often ask yourself: "Why?" "My curly hair was frizzy, because I didn't have time to comb it before I left the house." Another "why", making the sentence feel a bit more interesting. Also emphasizes that "chaos" you mentioned earlier. "I passed by hundreds of trees, bushes, plants, and weird animals" (little nitpick). Also, when listing things, three is often a good number to stop, often from increasing/decreasing importance. (another nitpick). Revised: "I must have passed by hundreds of trees, bushes, and weird animals." Note the "must have passed", maybe indicating that the speaker isn't keeping track (and mostly likely isn't). Onto my second word of advice: word choice! Depending on the feel of your writing piece, some words can break the mood. I'm not entirely sure what the reader is supposed to feel by reading this, but perhaps suspense (from the ending), or maybe thoughtful? I see that you used "weird" twice in your writing. I find "weird" to be sort of a casual mood, and doesn't really match the "mood" or "tone" i mentioned earlier. Think of having an elegant waltz, and then taking a sledgehammer to the shins. An exaggeration, but it might disrupt your reader. A better choice in this case, could be "strange" (not very different, I know, but hey, little things make the whole). Revised: "The sky was nothing but grey, as the sun hid behind the clouds. It felt as though the weather changed to match my mood." Again, asking "why" the sky was grey. It may seem obvious, but sometimes it's not always good to tell things as they are. "As I continued walking, I became a lot more relaxed, but not by much." This is a contradiction. "A lot more" and "not by much". So, which one is it? Revised: "Walking seemed to make me feel a little more relaxed." In summary: Ask "why"! Explaining why something is the way it is leads way to more detail. Descriptions: Continuing from "why", this detail helps you describe what the reader is reading, helping them visualize the world you're in. Word choice: Does it match the mood/tone? Could I have chosen a better word? And have other people proof-read your work! I think it's nice that you posted it, because they can give you feedback! You can apply these things to the second half of your writing, and see how much better it sounds!
  9. I thought it'd be obnoxious to mention every simulation I run through in my head, but I hadn't thought of your interactions in particular. I'll definitely be more mindful to everyone. Speaking of being mindful, time for obnoxious simulations! I don't think Hoshiko has enough damage to kill that soldier but she should be okay to survive, considering she has defence. If I'm targeted, I should be okay with Vantage, unless RNG fails me. Mind if I leave the archer to you guys (Klaren, Hoshiko, Mayanna, and Meredith) while I keep trudging on eastward?
  10. Rosalvya was a little startled when Mayanna started to lecture Klaren. She had never seen a Sister or a Priest get angry. Rosalvya had traveled alongside members of the Church before, and for the most part, they were pleasant. With the exception of their attempt to coax her out of her profession. In any case, she felt kind of bad for Klaren. "But is now really the time for a lecture?" she thought to herself. Klaren was going to be okay in Mayanna's care. She could trust in that. Rosalvya could see one of those creatures trying to flank Klaren, but thankfully Meredith was nearby to intervene. Wasting no more time, she moved closer to finish the creature with a pincer strike. Move to I14 and attack Soldier 4
  11. Can't promise anything Theoretically, Ecquis and I could reach Radburn if the troubadour buys one more round of Death's Door for us. Only one way to find out!
  12. "I feel a little braver. Perhaps things will turn out okay." Now to reach Radburn.

      it's not illegal to possess a lock pick set where i am, nor is it illegal to pick your own locks.

  14. Rosalvya, my current Myrmidon. InnocentBoy helped provide a splice for me (Marisa's clothes from FE8 and Karla's hair from FE7). And then I recolored her to suit my preferences.
  15. Felis Felis was one of the last to exit the plane. He was still in his seat, quiet, and immobile. He was meditating; his uncle had told him to always remain his calm. One of the flight attendants came over to him, tapping him on the shoulder. "Um, excuse me sir, but the flight is over, you'll have to exit-" Felis let out a growl, clearly not pleased to have been disturbed. He opened his eyes, a visibly trembling person in front of him. He didn't even bother acknowledging the person. Several years with an uncle who wasn't much for idle conversation appeared to have made him unsociable as well. "No matter," he thought to him, as he reached for the armrest to steady himself upwards. He realized it wasn't there anymore, after he, well, destroyed it after a flight attendant had spilled his drink on him. He went to go collect his greatsword, something he had a difficult time explaining at the airport. The attendant shrank backwards, trying to distance herself from Felis, until she meekly told him that the exit was in the opposite direction. He merely grunted, heading in the other direction to exit the plane. As soon as he stepped outside, he was greeting by the soothing wind and the blinding sun. It took a moment, as his eyes adjusted to his brighter surroundings, before a group of people came into his field of view. If they were discussing anything important, he had clearly missed it. He lumbered across the field to meet with the others, his body still stiff after sitting still in a plane for several hours. "Maybe I should have walked..."
  16. Esyllt "Oh by the way Esyllt, when your stomach starts hurting in about five minutes, the bathroom is just across from the kitchen, please don't miss the bowl." Mother Opium continued in a perfectly innocent and cheerful voice, Just as Mother Opium had finished saying that, Esyllt's stomach let out an unsettling noise. She grimaced, as she clutched her stomach. "That old hag! She put something in that cake?" Her eyes narrowed, as she stared Mother Opium directly in the eyes. "Hm, I will take your advice on that," Esyllt said with as much of an even tone as she could muster. "Though I cannot promise anything. The rest of you can go on without me. I will be-" grumble "-I will catch up with you later." She slowly made her way over to the washroom, with as much poise as possible. "Oh I'll miss the bowl all right."
  17. There was no rest in between before the next wave of enemies descended upon them. Another one of those ominous creatures approached her, raising his axe for a swing. However, these creatures proved to be much too slow for her, as she landed the first strike against the axe wielder. There was no strategy nor thought behind the swing, just the pure intent of murder. Easily dodging the axe, Rosalvya moved in for the fatal strike. The creature went limp, as Rosalvya withdrew her sword from his body. As Meredith went to clear up the remaining threat, Rosalvya moved forward, positioning herself for her next opponent. These ones looked tougher, being clad in suits of armor. Sheathing her own sword, she drew the one Meredith had given her. It was heavier than her own by far, but it would certainly deal a more devastating blow to these creatures. "I'll leave this to you, Meredith." Move to G17 and equip the Iron Blade.
  18. crit goddess Rosalyva bow down Time to see how this Iron Blade works out for me.
  19. Esyllt "Thank you Mother Opium," Esyllt said, as she gratefully accepted the cake. "See? Because you are so determined on being reserved, you don't get cake." Taking small bites of her cake, Esyllt sat contently, as she listened to the others talk. Just as Mother Opium was about to mention something of Layla's, she was abruptly cut off, causing Esyllt to raise an eyebrow. Her what, exactly? If Layla didn't want to discuss it with all of them there, then perhaps it wasn't something they were meant to know. The conversation moved onto haunted libraries, which honestly, didn't surprise her in the least. With the return of long dead Goddesses, the suddenly ability to use powers, and an imminent enemy that threatened to end them all, a ghost or two was the least of their worries. "We have been rather caught up with discovering the Goddesses, and the fact that we're dorming with one," Esyllt said, as she finished up the rest of her cake. She set down the plate softly onto the table before continuing. "We have not had the opportunity to explore, or meet the rest of our classmates. So with regard to your haunted library, I do not believe we know any more than you do. However, I think finding out the source of the rumor is a good way to start. It would not be good if the other students became curious and encounter something dangerous. It would be a lot less explaining to your students, and a lot less fear and speculation circulating around. If there is nothing else you would like to address, we can begin to investigate the library."
  20. Rosalvya took off towards the North, where her target was the lone axe wielder in the distance. As she approached closer, the man let out a eerie noise... "aLive... K kiLL" The sound gave her the chills, but she would not falter. The man wound up his axe, preparing to strike. Within striking distance, she angled her scabbard downward and drew her sword in an upward arc, slashing the man across the torso. But something felt off. The cut was too clean, passing through the flesh with little resistance. She had expected the man to stagger backwards from the wound, but her opponent followed through with his swing. Rosalvya dodged to the side, as the axe sunk itself into the ground. Knowing that her opponent was not human, she had no remorse for her next strike. Grasping her sword with both hands, she made one final swing, decapitating her opponent. The corpse fell lifelessly to the ground, as she resheathed her blade back into its scabbard. She couldn't shake that eerie feeling, but there were still more enemies at hand. "Victory is granted to those who strike first."
  21. "I see some people surrounded in the village over there," said Rosalvya. "I'll make my way towards the Northeast and try to meet up with them. I'll welcome anyone who can watch my back, but let us all meet back safely!" Move to D17 and attack Fighter 1
