Retainer Ad-Venture Contest (EU) - Entry Thread

[Atchen]

I had one hell of venture behind me. And it didn’t end good so I got some time to rest. Master called me into the house of his good friend. I came in. He was standing there in the middle of the room talking to his friend who played the piano.

“I have something to tell you!”

“What would your wish be?”

“I don’t have wishes! I have commands, demands, assignations!” looks like I’m getting fired.

“You have demands? Or commands? Common, stop playing around! That’s not like you at all.”
His friend smiled at me and waved that I shouldn’t take him too seriously. I’m not so sure what to think about her. Most of the time she and her retainers are too easygoing. Never saw them take anything serious. Why is my master so often with her? She is slowing down his progress! He could be The master of black arts!

“I’m not playing around! My assignation for today is..”

“Bring him anything, but show him that you are one hell of a retainer he can be proud to have!” What she said surprised me, did I get a second chance?

“Show me what you made of.”

“Yes master! I won’t fail you again!”

“I trust, you won’t.” Before master went out he looked at me.
“Don’t kill yourself by trying too hard.”

She stood up too, took her sword and poked me.
“He worries too much, because you just like him. A too hotheaded blackmage. So don’t get so beaten up like last time.”

They left the house.
“But what should I get to proof myself?”
Once I heard master talking about the Moogles and a place called Thornmarch. He was saying something like it’s pure hell there! When I bring something from that hell it should be proof enough.

So I found myself a party that wanted to conquer that hellish place. After I went inside and saw those fluffy oversized things I could not understand why is this place such a hell. After 5 minutes I understood the reason, but there was no way back. They sang, they squeaked and that running around! Why can’t they stand still in one place and let get killed right away? Why that squeaking? Why? After many hours of that squeaking sound that started to ring in my ears we defeated the Mog King. I grabbed something and run away from there! Never again that squeaking! When I came back my master was already waiting. He was sitting on a big sofa and talking with her again.
“You don’t look so good. Where did you go?”
“Thornmarch”
Both started to laugh. I think I know why.

“So?”
“I brought you this...” I took out what I grabbed... that’s not the Maleficent Mogstaff! I grabbed the wrong item! That‘s Malevolent Mogwand.
“Well I will accept this as an apology.”
Master was still laughing, but he looked happy. I think he isn’t angry anymore about that fish I brought last time.

"Your boss must be pretty skilled then."
The retainer wearing a full Dreadwyrm set before Miala shook his head. "Nah, just rich- He paid for a carry."
"I see."
The pair were interrupted by the booming voice of a male highlander. Miala recalled that his nickname was XxCloudLeonhartxX.
"Everybody ready?"
At nods from the assembled team, the 8 retainers strode into Thornmarch with confidence to lay their eyes upon the great king.

A soft Roegadyn's voice carried through the silence. "That was the messiest kill of Thex I've ever seen."
A Lalafell voice snorted and shouted "You have no idea the things I've seen!"
XxCloudLeonhartxX couldn't help but contribute. "Right? Can't you lot move out of the triangles?"
Miala couldn't help but round on him, "You died to them like 5 times!"
The argument exploded, but the highlander pocketed his Kingly Whisker and shrugged. "Whatever, see you later guys."
Miala wasn't happy with this turn of events at all. To make matters worse, she'd rolled a 1 on the ribbon. She knew what she had to do, and pushed past the throng through the exit portal. When XxCloudLeonhartxX departed, she made sure to follow him to his private quarters in the Goblet to lay in wait in the bushes.

There he was, with that whisker- looking more smug than Miala thought possible. Well, he wasn't going to stay smug for long. After gaining access to his chambers, it took only a short time for her axe to cut down all of his wallpaper and for her to bundle it up nicely. The Lalafell smirked a little as she headed back to her own quaters.
"This should do fine."

Miala answered her summons wearing the same expression, and after seeing the wallpaper the grey Miqo'te infront of her gave a withering look.
"What did you do?"
Miala drew her head back a bit. "Just because I'm amused I have to have done something?"
Freya cocked her head a little and seemed amused herself. "Knowing how sassy you are, pretty much yeah."
"Fine." Miala recounted tale, and afterwards Freya was wearing a smirk aswell.
"Nice. So are you level 60 yet?"
"No."
"Fair enough. Fancy getting some more biast scales?"
"You know what the drop rate on those things is."
Freya handed over a token. "That's why I'm asking you to get them."
Miala sighed. "Fine... for now. But you're asking a bit much, considering what I'm paid."
"I also need 2 adamantite nuggets."
