If Sol City's port wasn't a major pit stop for overseas travel, Astrid would literally never come here. Yet something always manages to bring her back. Whether it's travel, guild work, or robbing rich people who accidentally happen to be her grandparents, Sol City seems to be as inescapable a place as its jail.
Since she's here for a pit stop, Astrid spends the day wandering around looking for something interesting to do. A certain amount of nostalgia drew her back to the Market District, but the smell of food doesn't hurt her draw to the area. Several merchants in the square hesitate to pay her any mind or render her any services. After all, the preteen half-dwarf with horns was directly responsible for some of the destruction that happened around the fountain. She doesn't mind, though. The looks are no different than those of disgust and caution from those she received while living on the streets in Sky Peak. Besides, she's too distracted by the melancholy of the past to pay them any attention.
Having managed to get her hands on a couple of meat skewers, Astrid sits on the edge of the fountain offering an occasional taste of seared lamb to her hellhound companion Spicy Pawsage and patting his horned head as she chews on the perfectly cooked meat. At some point, Spicy's ears perk up while he looks around alertly.
"What's wrong, boy?" Astrid asks through a half-chewed bite. At her call, the hound gets distracted and looks up at her expectantly for more of a snack. That was weird.
Bringing pets:
Spicy Pawsage - hell hound (dreadsnout)
Charles - Scarecrow Squire (in pet pocket)
Quest details:
Quest Name: Evacuation!
Participants: Two or more
Location: One of Charon's Major Cities
Post Requirements: 6 post per person, 200 words per post
Reward: +1 Renown, +1 Mystical Archive Ticket
Description: You have found yourself caught up in one of these earthquakes, one of the biggest yet. While spending time in one of Charon's popular cities, the earth begins to shake, cracking open and throwing the city into chaos. Buildings collapse, fires spread and lava seeps from a massive fissure that has sprouted open, leaving those in the city to run for their lives. As a brave, capable member of Charon, you are needed to help evacuate the city, tend to wounded and assist civilians in getting to safety. The destruction is massive, rendering a small portion of the city destroyed and in need of repairs, but fixing things comes later, the priority now is to survive!
