Trials in Mythica

*Gobsmacked!*

First off, I was shocked to be invited to join a party by the same person I almost knocked over. Secondly this game had only come online some minutes back , surely parties couldn't be formed so swiftly.

"Soooo..."

"So what ?" I asked.

"Are you just going to keep on gaping at her or are you going to answer her question".

This coming from the guy that accompanied the She elf.

One thing people dont know about me is that I dont fancy being yelled at. I stand up, dusting my clothes as I do and marvel at the attention to detail that the game makers put into making this game.

"No!" I said.

"What?!!!, I told you Lady Sariel this guy is a scumbag . Saying no like he knows his way around this game."

"Language Burton, and patience. I told you the newbies are yet too confused to even know what they want now. Dont worry they'll come around eventually."

"As for you my dear boy, my name is Lady Sariel , and you will adress me as such, what is your name so I can add you to my friend list ?".

"The name's Felix , but you can call me the predator, everyone does." I say eliciting an eyebrow raise from the she-elf.

"Nice meeting you Felix , I have added you to my friend list, so do add me to yours okay !."

"Alright , I will. But do tell your lackey over there to be careful with his manner of approach , he needs it."

"Who you calling a lacke–".

"Thanks, I will."

I watch as they leave me alone and go to another unsuspecting victim and I notice the bumping into people was actually a planned act. Hmm! Good luck with that , I thought.

Now first things first , I need a new outfit, cos my beginner's cloths suck. I duck into another of the NPC shops that displayed wears and meet an old man at the counter .

"Hello pops, pls I need some new clothes" I tell him.

"That will cost you 2 sil'erbits " he says.

I check my pocket and find out I actually have about 5 silver looking coins , 5 gold coins and 5 bronze coins. I guess that's the starting quota for all beginners. I dip my hand in and pull out 1 "sil'erbits" just as he called it.

"Sorry pops , I can only spare one of those and also I would like to know your name".

"You know for a moment there I thought you would never ask. Most y'ung 'uns who pass through here are too in a hurry to even ask. My name is Pa Chan. But you can just call me Chan. Also I'll take 1 sil'erbit and 1 brom and help you add a Jacket to go with your clothes , since you were polite enough to ask for my name.".

I consider it for a while and then I decide to take his offer. I dip my hand into my pocket , but find it empty.

"Oh! Don't worry, it's my nephew he'll return your money shortly. He can be quite naughty. Please do forgive him. Cole give my good friend here all his belongings and shimmer  into view so you can say hello properly."

A fairy boy of about 12 years old judging by his height appears into view beside the old man and takes just 1 silver and 1 bronze coin before handing me the remainder of my money. The only thing is, the boy had gossamer wings behind him. So how was this human looking old man his uncle.

"Judging by the look on your face, I know you must be wondering how in this world am I his uncle"

At my confirming nod, he continues talking while Cole goes on to bring my order from the inner part of the shop for me.
