With
the lush green forested mountains and snowy crowned caps of Griflafs peaks forming a beautiful serene picturesque backdrop, a small humble market town sat amongst the subtle soft hills and open reaching plains to the south, just outside the reach of the great mountain's shadow.
The small town was alive with the hustle and bustle of a busy morning as the citizens embraced the suns bright warmth and all eagerly sought to make the most of the day ahead.
The town was only small but it bred honest hard workers,

A wide lake ran from the mountains and cut the town in two.
The residents enjoyed the bountiful benefits of the giving river. Crops lined the waters edge, fishing huts appeared sporadically and a large water wheel marked the centre of town.
The river continued through the town south and ran parallel with a dirt ridden path that wound across the long bare plains to the large kingdom of Parin.
Exiting east from the town was another dirt path that lead to the rocky mountain crops of Dirgart.

The town, while only small, acted as a trading hub for these two great kingdoms.
With a population a little over one hundred, the town didn't offer a lot to its visitors but a warm meal, welcoming hospitality, a friendly smile and cosy accommodation.

This is the town of Elthandeir falls,
And this is where our story begins.




As the last wooden plank was nailed in place the grand new building was complete. An old wizardly looking wizard critically inspected the craftsmanship as he strolls around the wide open space. His boots clacking on the bare floor beneath him with each steady step.
Faster younger footsteps tore along the upper floor and flew down the stairs with a fast eager hammering.

"We got visitors alreadyyyyyy!"

Squealed an over-excited Isabelle as she tumbled under the centrifugal momentum of all her dangling gear and went crashing down the last steps and exploded out through the front door. Face covered in dirt she looks up to those approaching the door.




Tales of the opening guild have been spreading since it's construction first began. Located just a little north of the town, it's situated just far enough for privacy and not to be a disturbance to the town.
The mysterious wizard Horondo and his granddaughter Isabelle are its owners and occupier's, closely followed by their faithful servant guards Celcia and Ivas.

Jack walked among a small crowd of what he could only assume where wizards to the edge of a forest where a curious little establishment had set itself up. Checking to see his decks of cards where safely strapped to his belt he gave a glance to the building up ahead, the girl who had blown into town with the strange old wizard and his companions had fallen down and was looking at the crowd with anticipation.

'As they say best foot forward' taking a slightly larger breath then he'd like to admit he took Jack took longer strides towards the fallen girl before offering a hand and soft smile.

"Well at very least ya can't fall any further, you alright?"

With cheeks blushing bright red, non-intentionally she ignores the out stretched hand and brushes the dirt off herself as she inspects her grazes.

"Yea I'm alright!" the young girl replies with a soft laugh and a bright smile.
"Yea if there was a way to fall further I would probably find it." readjusting her things she finally looks to the man.

"Are you a wizard!?" she blurts out excitedly.

Jack chuckled a bit at the girls bluntness his smile becoming his usual toothy grin, it was almost like it his first time talking to a wizard but it was almost impossible considering who she where she was.

"Yeah, let me show you" he produced a deck of cards from his coat gave it a quick shuffle.
Placing a tentative hand on the deck and closing his eyes a small magic circle appeared beneath his fingers, after a short moment he drew the top card.
"High card, 2 of hearts" he offered the card to the girl "put it on your scrapes should clean you"

"Almost forgot, I'm Jack Redwood and you are?

The girl hesitantly took and used the card. As the magic went to work she was astounded with a sense of awe and excitement.

"Wow so your a healer! That's neat, my friend uses card magic too. Oh n' the names Izzy." she says throwing out her hand and flashing a proud wink and smile.

"So what brings you here Jack?"

Jack took Izzy's hand and gave it a firm shake before returning the rest of his deck to his coat.

"A pleasure to meet you Izzy, I'm here to sign up for the guild" taking a glance back a the group of approaching wizards he knew he might have his work cut out for himself.

"Looks like I'm not alone in that interest either, so what do I have to do to get a job around here?"

"hmmm" The young girl smiles as she taps her chin in deep contemplative thought.

"An initiation test, what a GREAT idea!"

Brimming with excitement she waves her hands in the air signalling the other approaching wizards. Wishing to address them all at once.
Squeezing her eyes shut tightly as concentration wrinkles grow on her face, she uses her own magic to create a sturdy, lightly glowing brown box.
It was clearly built of magic, not looking natural at all.
Izzy placed it on the ground and then stood on it to gain a better height to address everyone.

Despite being ready to burst with excitement, she patiently waited for the others to arrive before announcing her great idea.

The brown haired lady was skipping along the path. Her mind drifting from the trees to the squirrels. She wondered what this guild would hold. Hopefully, without bad missions. Her last one full of jobs that called for the killing innocent people or worse. She would approach where the first to arrive was talking to, a girl who seemed to be already part of the guild. By her actions, she wanted to share something, yet she was waiting for everyone to gather.

Mel stayed a bit away from the other guy @Pineappletumble instead, popping up on her other side. Melody catching only the last part of the girls speech.
'An initiation test, what a GREAT idea!'@Dark Light
Sticking away from everyone, she didn't have the best reputation. She wanted to get herself set up here and go on a few jobs and try to make some friends. Hoping the girl would start talking again soon. She was starting to get hungry.

With a blink, Izzy created a green cylindrical horn in her hand. Raising it to her lips she shouted into it and her voice was amplified.

"GREETINGS, all would be guild members. I am guild master Horondo's granddaughter, Isabelle! " She gives a polite bow, careful not to fall of her box.

"There will be a three part initiation over three days! " her voice peaks with excitement and every word is filled with a high energy and excitement.

"Three challenges, three days and three judges to impress! Day one will be hosted by yours truly, Me! " Izzy gives a playful wink.

"The guild is new and a bit bland, BRING ME SOMETHING PRETTY! "
She throws her green speaker into the air as she hops with a little cheer.

Most of the audience stand around confused scratching their heads. A small few began to jog of searchingly but soon slowed.

"Well come on people..." Izzy pouted. "You won't get in unless you can bring me back some pretty decorations, it's for all of us really!" her voice became kind of winy.

Slowly more people understood the strange request and with shrugging shoulders, began to disperse.

"Geeee, slowies."

She couldn't be serious... 'Bring me something pretty' what where the other tests going to be? style my hair? ballroom dancing? not that it mattered, a job was a job. Taking a look around at the dispersing crowd he could tell that there where just as confused as all this as he was.

'Something pretty, something pretty...' he had taken his first step when he noticed the girls on the opposite side of Izzy @Song Book, she seemed to be avoiding everyone.

"Hey there!" Jack gave a small wave as he walked over to her.

"You wouldn't happen to want to start this search together would you? Guild work is typically done in teams"
