and on this farm he had a cait sith

[pot_head]

Who: Donnel, and anyone who'd like to join in!
Where: Aqures Ixen region.
When: November 16th [Back-Dated]
What: It's time to train, so Donnel has set out to fight a monster, including sending out a message on Mognet! ... Except it turns out some monsters are friendly and just want cash. Who'd a'thunk.

Training, training, training. Donnel had been doing that ever since he arrived, but he'd yet to come into a real battle - which, oddly enough, he was kind of missing. He didn't enjoy violence, but he liked being useful. So when he heard whispers that a 'creature' was spotted near Aqures Ixen, he was more than ready to go out and see what his new abilities were made of!

"Yee-haw!" He cried out, hopping onto his yellow Chocobo, Drago. He hoped others would come with him on this exciting journey!

"Ready when you are." Naminé smiles at the group of them. It's certainly much different than when she was adventuring off with Sora earlier this month, but it's still nice. Just a different dynamic that she'll have to get used to. "But maybe we should wait a bit so you can catch your breath?" This is directed at Duster, with a little worried furrow set between her brows.

[mindofathief]

Duster breathed in through his nose and stood up. After a long exhale, he let his arms relax. "I'm fine. I've gone on trips like this before."

[pot_head]

"Guess this makes Duster the master out of all of us!" Donny said with a smile, feeling more and more enthusiastic about this journey with each passing moment. "We'll follow your lead!"

[mindofathief]

Duster nodded, looking at each of the other Heroes. Four of them, four faces to watch out for. "Alright. The first part about monster hunting is not to rush it. As long as we move around, we'll run into something. Don't overexert yourself before the fight." He turned around and casually walked away from Aqures Ixen as if where simply going on a walk.

[redigere]

That makes sense. And, well. While healing is certainly important in any fight, Naminé doesn't see it as overexerting compared to what the others might have to do. She trots after Duster, but after a moment hangs back so she can walk along Drago. Because who wouldn't want to walk next to a cute chocobo?

"Sure, but are we not looking for a cat-like monster anymore?" She tilts her head at Donny curiously.

[pot_head]

"Well, we are on the look out." He said, but there was a reason he paused afterword. "But I did hear somethin' funny about this particular monster..."

At this he eyed Akane. She was the one who mentioned a wallet, for some reason.

[sesenta]

"Well...technically it's a monster, but not the kind you need to defeat with weapons," she explained as she walked beside Naminé. "There are a few rare friendly monsters that dwell in this world. From what I've read, they can be distinguished from the others because they'll ask you for something in particular. There's a cactus monster in the desert that will ask for water, and a hamster that wants you to pet it."

She chuckled and patted her coin purse. "Cait Sith is interested in money, according to the reports. Pay him, and he'll help you get better at your equipped jobs without any extra training."

Akane was perfectly fine with allowing Duster to take the lead. She wasn't completely wet behind the ears when it came to fighting monsters, but she was still a beginner, especially with the use of a gunblade.

"The problem is that they're hard to find. We're likely to run into several of the dangerous kinds of monsters before we find our kitty friend."

[redigere]

Naminé immediately pats her pockets in reaction to Akane's words, worry creasing her features. Running into dangerous kinds of monsters is fine, since it will be good training, but...how much does Cait Sith want in exchange for Job experience?

"I didn't bring that much with me for this trip, though...do you think I'll still be able to get the experience from him?"

[mindofathief]

"Oh, so it's...one of those monsters." Duster turned his head to the back of the group briefly. It had been months since he and Rialynn came across an imp during a nice walk by the beach. It had asked for an Elixir, but it was still a lot of money to a newly-arrived Hero.

"Did it say how much money? I only have 300 gil on me..."
