8:59am... A burning summer's morning, an avid crafter awaits the return of his
adventuring lacky, tapping his foot ever so impatiently while he strikes at his watch,
he hopes for something pleasant from his accomplice.
Today's prize, perhaps a Kingly Whisker? Oz hopes this would be the case.
Our well timed retainer dashes through the markets hastily, brushing past the
morning crafters busy working their fingers to the bone, he hopes this gift given to him
by the twelve will suffice, he rubs his shinbone remembering the previous incident.
After catching his breath, the young one pauses and in exictement exclaims 'I
return truimphantly!', psyched up, what manner of beast had he slain, what mountains
had he conquered to bring such a finely crafted...crustacian?! A Pebble Crab.
He took a walk on the beaches of Costa Del Sol and picked up his little companion here.
With a toothed grin carved upon his face, he exclaims cheekily "Watch out for his claws,
he's very feisty". The ever so impatient Oz with a blank expression stirs daggers at him,
knowing any second his master will explode in temper, he explains that he always enjoys the occasional
excursion and is ready to depart once more. What tales await our hapless explorer?
One venture coin and a kick up the ass later, this retainer is dispatched upon his important
mission. A grumble is heard in the distance as the retainer walks along gazing in awe at his newfound
shiny coin, almost walking into a Roegaeden guardsman who doesn't seem so pleased at this fool, our
retainer picks up his walking pace into the wilds of La Noscea.
A moon phase passes and Oz awaits the return of his retainer, hoping he didn't get eaten by
a Chimera or worse...A hungry goobue.
Clutching a sturdy wooden box, our retainer seems a little unsure this time, a slight smile
that casts a shadow of doubt upon his face and that of Oz when he claims the chest from the
retainer. Oz hesitates for a moment and eyes his retainer up wondering what mischief he landed
in this time. He unlatches the box and the retainer curls up and clutches his shin readily.
The box slowly opens and out shines a light that could only resemble that of a High Quality
Item, blinded by the sheer brilliance of this epic light, what item is this, has he finally
done it?! Oz begins to smile wonderously as he fully opens the box and the light dims,
he is met by the snipper of lines and fingers... Jacques the snipper, another crab...
Oz snaps the box shut rapidly and places it on a table, rubbing his index finger from the previous
incident, he opens up his venture wallet and proceeds to hand the retainer a coin while holding up a
proud posture, wondering why he allows this fool to run rampant around Eorzea. He contemplates drawing
up some plans for an Aquarium design for his newfound critter friends!
