The Trials and Tribulations of LostKnight

[Leone]

@LK and sellsword

I've known this blitzcraig you speak of for a long time. He's a decent fellow but has a mischievous side. He has created deadlier versions far to the south west and more recently to the north. I hope for your sakes that they are never added to the HIVES defence system .

As for this 'big city' tag, I agree that Ashdown is thriving with a rich mine to the south, a popular shop and a strange mystic teleport device to the north east...but...it is by no means a city. For such a place you need to travel towards the deep south to Ardesia City.

LoL - I don't comment on this thread often, but I always enjoy reading it - you guys/gals and others like you who can just have fun and sometimes be silly are the best part of FT

As for insects... as soon as my real life gets back to normal so I can finally finish what I've started, there'll be a new, truly sadistic species buzzing around =☠

@sellsword

Just reread your post. That Ardesia City dwelling must have cost you a fortune in GP. I rather rudely broke into a number of dwellings there to try and locate a shortcut to a certain mine to the far north. Apologies if one of them was yours. I'll buy you a mead in one of the taverns there if I can talk my way through the city gates.

Ardesia is certainly a fine town! Mrs. SS and I were looking for a new spot to settle down and this place has it all. She had dreams of becoming a professional NPC after dabbling in the field a number of years ago in a Final Fantasy remake (she was the "This is Cornelia, the city of dreams." girl), and there were opportunities galore, so she's happy. We also made sure to look into youth programs and were excited to see activities for kids ranging from getting lost to panhandling for millions of dollars, so that was the real clincher as other towns just don't seem to provide that rich experience. Me? I'm in the finding and selling business, so unfortunately I do travel a lot, but it is always nice to come home!

Leone, no worries about the house! I put my name on the front, and that seems to keep most people out. LK snuck in once and drank my coffee, but it's pretty secure overall. I do thank you for organizing the soul stones and such though. I "mined" most of them from the Steinheim area and didn't sort them out in my haste...

[LostKnight]

Good thing you let L3on3 sort out the soul stones for you because I would have found them a new home.

MAAAWHAHAHAHA!

Finally after a few days I have another alt raised enough to have two pets. Could have filled him up with soul stones stolen from Rockheim. Next time I go in through a basement window and dig a secret tunnel to the sublevels of Rockheim. Then have it sealed with the magic of a powerful mage! And trust me "Open Sesame!" will not be password either. It will only open for the wearer of the Blue Spandex Ninja Suit with the Boot Of Mass Destruction I wear under these Viking cloths that were kindly given to me in the frozen wastelands of FT when I was almost frozen to death.

Did someone say coffee?

[Arashiko]

Coffees are always available at the Purple Dragon Inn.

Getting Johnnie or Walker to give you one is harder, for some reason only whisky with a beer chaser is all they sell…

Maybe we need a coffee urn in the VIP section.

I'll talk to the proprietors… I can be VERY convincing…

[LostKnight]

Coffee is always on at Rockheim, and my friends have a standing invitation to drop by for a cuppa any time. So you see that Sell, you don't need to 'sneak' in. You have a free pass.

___________________
Funny enough that was true before I moved here. As a single man my coffee pot was on from the time I got up to the time I went to bed and I bet I filled the 12 cupper at least 6 times a day. More if there was company.

And before you ask: Slept like a baby! Never seemed to bother me. Today it's mate and coffee, multiple times throughout the day. And it still surprises my wife, my hed hits the pillow and within minutes...
... ZZZZZZZZZ

So you see, the invite is a little of the real me living in FT.
Look it up: Mate Argentina

Well, you are welcome to pop in and partake you know.

I think you're getting a bad rap. Sadistic side indeed, I don't believe it.

DIM comes to mind; Devious, Ingenious and Multifaceted, like the eyes of the bees you create.

Yes and if I live long enough I just might see one because I have heard rumours that one can hear them just before STA get's you.

[blitzcraig]

Lol :p - I'm really getting anxious to finish the update... couple new ideas in there that I think are really cool (and yes, perhaps a glimpse of my sadistic side too)
