Chapter One: Where It All Began

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A new day has begun in the town of Gallievale.

Today, a young man is preparing to set out on a quest far from home, but not before stopping by the local market to pick up some food, water, and bullets for his trip. People wander about the open market, chatting with shop keepers and lugging around their bags of goods. It's quite busy this morning.

Kaz was walking among the market looking for some food. He had just finished his serum and didn't want to try it on a empty stomach .

((Hmm what kind of money is used in this setting?))

A tall young man with a mop of jet black hair was standing before the stall of a weapons vendor. With his single, ruby-red eye, he was eying a massive chainsaw sword. EQUIP was handy with his bat and liked it a lot, but he was always eager to expand his arsenal. He checked the price tag, then reached into the pocket of his jeans, checking his wallet. Still empty. He sighed and closed it, instead heading to the mayor's house to see if he needed any monsters killed.

Wesley came across the same weapons vendor, and picked out a few boxes of bullets, and a swiss army knife. He handed four silver, and three stone Bitts to the vendor and walked off. Now all he needs is a canteen to hold the water he has, and about a weeks worth of food. Oh, and a bag big enough to carry it all.

| Meanwhile, with the mayor |

"Ah! It's a delight to see you again, young man. How may I help you?" The old man greeted EQUIP, giving him an overly-friendly, exaggerated smile. He motioned him to come and sit opposite to him at his dusty old desk.
