Pain. Running about on your feet all day at the beck and call of good, paying customers was a task that seemed to tear into the very fibre of her feet. It wasn't even just a sharp pain, it was a dull pain that never faded and just constantly wore her down. A day of lectures was bad enough but having to work for five hours in a restaurant afterwards was a killer.

When she was finally freed into the cool, Tokyo night, she pulled her hood up over her blond hair and silently plugged in her earphones. Japan was one of the safest places in the world and that was proven by just how at-ease she was walking along the less-populated streets leading to the nearby train station. Her apartment was on the outskirts of the city, only twenty minutes away from her university by train but hours away by foot. Her parents had recently returned to her hometown in Northern Japan which meant that she had to fend for herself, which wasn't much of a problem except for the fact that she had to cook her own meals. Thankfully, the restaurant owner was feeling generous that day and had sent her away with a freshly-cooked meal that she simply popped in the microwave.

Once her belly was full, she took a quick shower which eased her muscles before finally collapsing down into bed. Equipping her phone, she went through a few texts from her friend.

[i]"Omg, have you seen the new raid boss? She's so kawaii!"[/i]

[i]"You should totally try the egg hunt thingy. I made a total killing on it now some girl is buying me rounds of alcohol! Life is great! Brb, going to fight the boss thing!"[/i]

[i]"My party just got rekt by an oversized eight-year-old."[/i]

Smiling, she slid her phone away - it seemed that this new boss was demolishing everyone that went up against it. Once she had scanned some of its details on the newly-updated wiki, she began to form a plan in her head. Easter was a Christian holiday, right? Alfheim had a lot of western inspirations and there was some religious undertones to it. What did Jesus do? He was a pretty nice guy except for one or two times --[i]RIP fig tree[/i]-- and judging by how the developers liked to challenge people, Naomi reckoned that was the key to victory - being nice.

Slipping the AmuSphere over her eyes, she relaxed back and cracked a soft smile. [color=DodgerBlue]"Link start!"[/color]

Her sense of the real world faded away and suddenly, she was PotatoMuncher, the nomad pyromancer. She had logged out in some inn - after blasting a party of thieves the day previous, she discovered there was a bounty on her head and inns were a relatively safe place to log out. As she left the inn, she took note of two dark looking men leaning up against the wall and keeping a firm eye on the door. [color=DodgerBlue]"Gentlemen…"[/color] Their surprise betrayed their intentions as she gave them a provocative wink, her curls bouncing a little.

There must have been quite a price on her head because as she walked further into the main streets of Aarun, another four joined the previous two in tailing her. Humming softly, she browsed the various stalls until she found precisely what she wanted. Passing some gold to the vendor, she picked up the smokescreen ward and quickly activated it, chucking it back towards her tail. It exploded in a thick cover of smoke and with that, she sprouted her wings and took to the sky. By the time the smoke cleared, not one of the men knew where she went.

It took her about half an hour to reach the Easter Boss but by the time she got there, the vines had begun to clear to reveal a whole party of flickering flames. [color=DodgerBlue]"Damn, looks like they got wrecked after all."[/color] As her lips set into a pout and she adjusted herself so she was sitting cross-legged in mid-air, she took note of a particular guy approaching the boss before being flung out. [i]It seems that she wasn't the only intelligent one around here.[/i] Moving from her position, she gently fluttered to the ground before approaching him as he climbed to his feet. 

[color=DodgerBlue]"Hiya! It looks like you had the exact same plan I had but you didn't queue up! Plus, I have a little something that should help us out! You wanna go into a private queue with me? You have to make sure not to equip any weapons or armour though."[/color] She was referring to the unopened present from the Christmas event that she still had in her inventory - chances were, she could get a lot better loot from here. Turning, she didn't even wait for his answer before she created the queue and extended an invitation to him. [i]Mythrilite, huh? That was a pretty cool name![/i]
