        "Let's see if we can find a quest or something, so we have a reason to go out there besides just to kill monsters." Kaodin said, leading Luna to a big building.

"Where are we now?" she asked. looking at the great golden banners that swung in the breeze.

"If I'm correct this is the place where we accept quests. Isn't this exciting?" Kaodin gave Luna a big grin, his excitement was contagious.

"Yes! Let's see what we can find for two level 1 people. I guess we'll be a team." Luna gave him a smirk when he pouted at her, "I was just kidding. Of course we're a team. Please remember to put my name down too when you sign up."

Luna walked off, looking around at all the different characters and listening to the gossip. Kaodin walked up to the counter.

"Welcome! What can I do for you?" A female NPC greeted, a bright smile on her face.

"Umm....I'm looking for a quest to run." Kaodin said, looking at her with a confused look.

"New to the game, eh?" she asked, getting a nod from him.

"Ok. Here is the list of quests available to you." 

She snapped and a screen appeared in front of him.

"Just choose a quest you think you'd be comfortable with and I'll provide you with the information." she said, pleasantly smiling and staring at him through the screen.

"Ok....I choose this one." Kaodin tapped on the accept quest button.

"Excellent choice, sir. I'm giving you all the info about this quest and I hope you have fun with it. I've also given you a map and since this is your first quest, here are some free health and magic potions to help you out. When you have completed your quest, don't forget to come back and turn it in. There have been quite a few players who have forgotten to do so. Please be careful on your quest and I hope you return victorious."

"Thank you very much." Kaodin said, walking from the counter.

He scanned the area, searching for Luna. He found her at the magic counter, listening to the NPC there as he gave her information on something. As he waited patiently for her to be finished, he saw a few players looking at his clothing and whispering. He looked down at his royal attire and looked at the other players clothing, noticing that few where tattered at the hems and sleeves. He puzzled over it, not seeing Luna come up beside him.

"Hey Kaodin, I just found out I started off with a few spells! I'm so happy, since I found out how expensive it is to buy the spell books."  Luna said, noting how he didn't say anything, "You ok? You seem lost in thought."

Kaodin looked at Luna, saw her dress looked royal as well and shook his head.

"Its nothing, I promise. I have a quest now. Let's see what we can get with what little we have, since we may be gone for awhile. So you never know."

"Ok! I have a healing spell so all we need are magic potions and bandages. I'll be good to go then." Luna smiled, "I'll be the healer, its great! Oh! And I found out there is cooking in this game! I can be the cook too." 

Kaodin gave her a tender smile as they went out of the building, him holding the door open for her. 

"I knew you'd like this game." he said, getting a nod from her, "Come on. Let's see if we can find those bandages."

He pulled up his map, Luna getting next to him to see the map too.

"There is the store that sells all the healing supplies and here is the store that sells all the camping supplies. I hope we can get a few things with this coupon I got."
