			<description>For the past two weeks Bianqa had been hammering at Rabican consistently with the ridiculous proposition of marriage. The continuous onslaught had been old within the first five minutes, but two weeks of it… He assumed that to most people watching him awkwardly and angrily deal with the seventeen year old, he seemed without a drop of patience, but the fact was that he’d been mercilessly sucked dry of that virtue a week ago.



And suddenly she let up.



She’d dropped by that afternoon with  ...</description>

			<description>You drink too much. This was the first coherent thought of the morning as Reinbach stirred awake in the lower Jeuno chocobo stable where he had spent the night. His head seemed to be in a barrel of needles, the pressure of thousands of pinpricks pushing down on his head. He opened his eyes and the world was just a little too damn bright. He closed his eyes again and cursed the sun. A chocobo keened beside him, not happy to be sharing its stable with a stranger but unable to make it go away. Not  ...</description>

No kidding.



&quot;From cleaning up crazed immortals to cleaning up bodies from town, I've done it all.&quot;



When are we going on that special assignment again?



&quot;I got no clue.&quot;



Grr....they keep us on our paws and have our claws sheathed but it's been more than 3 months. This is getting ridiculous.



&quot;It'll come one day. Knowing Marth, it'll probably come when we least expect it.&quot;

			<description>Jeuno Darksday



The skies of Vana'diel uncharacteristically clear in open defiance of the day's namesake, the hustle and bustle of Lower Jeunoian commerce pulsing as it did week after week. Traders hawked their various wares while many hands clamored over auction counters, and scores of crates flooded from the airship docks. A peach-colored tail flicked idly in the morning air, sharpened eyes catching a glimpse of a sparkle atop a hand cart packed with mail; a small blue sphere glistening  ...</description>

			<description>It was a normal day in Jugner. The sky was clear of any clouds, with a breeze gently blowing through the treetops. Birds chirping their songs, and in some parts of the forest you could hear the river flowing. Rakuyu was casually strolling along, listening to the sounds to relax his nerves. The small scuffle in La' Theine wasn't something that happened everyday. But at least the Taru was contained. In all of his days of his life, he never thought he would see a Taru acting like a tiger, and casting  ...</description>

			<dc:creator>Reinbach</dc:creator>
			<description>They had plundered a ship carrying military payroll earlier that day and the captain doubled the crew's daily ration of rolanberry to celebrate. Reinbach sank his face into his cup and wondered whether or not he'd see any of that money. The longer you stay at sea, the more likely you are to get caught. Reinbach was fairly new to this brand of crime, but even he knew that. Since he was not the captain, he couldn't order the ship to Norg to offload this haul, or to one of the many Lamia-infested  ...</description>

			<description>The following is the personal account of an adventuring paladin of the post-Crystal War era during the age of Vana'diel. This book was found in the ruins of Windurst's residential area, in what appears to be a mog house. There are no other historical records of Wat the Bunnyslayer, though there is much speculation on who he may have been. Regardless of his origin, the account in this document is a rare look into the life of the adventurers who used their swords and sorcery to battle dragons and  ...</description>

			<dc:creator>DarkValkyr</dc:creator>
			<description>The feeling of having someone understand is a strong thing. 

It often makes a difference between one's life or death.

For a certain Tiger, it was all that mattered.

Life begun as joy. It declined. It occured that it was about to fall down to nothing. Something sparked then.

Life had begun again. Why so?

Because someone had understood. 



It has happened again just now. Light of life rekindled, like a mother would lick its cub to keep it warm upon birth.

Because he was simply just  ...</description>

			<description>He returned then, to his old den. Where it used to be. It was no longer occupied. He lived there alone. No one from his family was there. None of his denmates, his brothers or sisters. No cubs and no mothers. He whimpered, ears drooped. He slept inside, hoping to drink in a bit of the scent of his past. No one was there. Not even the faintest scent of the life he lived, when he was born, by his mother. He looked outside to the stars. The glittered. Not even the stars seemed to send him any messages.  ...</description>

			<description>A fierce windstorm raged to its second day over the entire Bibiki bay area, bending the sturdiest of trees and sending beasts and beastmen alike to seek shelter. To their fortune, the very same winds had over the ages carved innumerable such shelters into the cliffs and hills of the bay, giving the inhabitants more than they needed.



Likewise sheltered, a lonely cabin stood nestled between these cliffs. Nearer to the peninsula of Buburimu - to a small canyon just beyond the caves that connected  ...</description>

			<description>The woman awoke and stared at the ceiling for long minutes, trying to get her bearings. She lay still, slowly registering the soft bed she lay in and the flickering light of a small fire on the stone and timber ceiling. A tall shelf rose sharply to one side, and she caught what looked like a fireplace chimney out of the corner of one eye. She sat up in the pre-dawn glow of a fire in a little fireplace and smiled to find herself in pale blue pajamas that matched the bed sheets of a large, hand-carved  ...</description>

It was disgraceful. It reminded of the same people that took away the lush greenery from his ancestors too. To think, act and behave like one was terrible. He felt he should spit it out every time he thought about it. They're twolegs. No one understands. Only Valkyr does. That's because he's not like them. He's kind of my other half.  ...</description>

But as the tip of the blade reached its climax, he found himself stumbling forward. He managed to catch his balance, and brought one foot in front of him which caught his fall. A sigh of relief pushed passed his lips as he rose up his blade again. Holding it the way he seen Ayvaen wield his.

Truly, he wanted to go. Death struck fear in him every step of the way.



He could see it now. Surrounded by all sides. He wish he could just jump to his friends and run away with them.



But he can't. Not now.



It didn't matter what they say. Either world was to die. So what? This world is as real as the other.



The big shows he displayed. The way he acted cunningly and stabbed his friends in the back. The arguments he had with Sphinx. It had to be done.

Her brother was busy building a fire, cursing up a storm and sometimes slipping into that goofy accent.

Finally he cursed one last time, accent as thick as ever, and threw the rock  ...</description>

The lone figure sat perched atop the lighthouse overlooking the silence of Buburimu peninsula in the night, keeping gentle watch over the beasts that roamed dozens of yalms below and off into the distance. Her eyes weren't with the keen they had in her youth, and occasionally they'd grow moist from the damage to the nerves of her face - epitomized by the wicked scars crossing it. But still she saw clearer in the night than most her scouts did, due to an uncommon amount of years of  ...</description>

 Soft pops and crackles filled the cold air in the dark, rocky room. Orange and yellow danced in the middle of the room in the form of flames, illuminating everything about it; giving warmth and life. On occasion a cough would interupt the popping and cracking, with a strange, feminin humming sound would follow shortly after. From the darkness, a form crept to the edge of the light and remained there.  ...</description>

Chunks of turf gave brief chase before falling back to earth, thrown airborne by swift talons moving in reckless haste. Running in tight formation, the knights advanced, long strides swiftly eating up the distance. If only these wings could carry us, mused the knight at the fore. How much swifter we would be! We would walk the clouds and not the earth.

He enjoyed the uniform and the action, and he had made some good friends in his squad. But he could feel that he was chafing under the yolk of military life. It wasn't that he took orders from a man he wanted to beat into a bloody pulp; he was use to that. It wasn't the danger, either; he accepted the prospect of death with detached fatalism and never really bothered to wonder why. The thing  ...</description>

			<description>OOC Forward:  I missed writing diary entries to Ayvaen, so I decided to do some as No'en, it makes sense and it's a good way to let people know what's going on with the tiny details related to Bastok if they're interested.



Today I returned from San d'Oria.  I was looking forward to good news about the trip to Pso'Xja being cancelled, but it doesn't look like my words with the Queen did any good.  Infact I'm surprised she blatantly disregarded my cautions and even her own concerns by allowing  ...</description>

			<description>To a casual observer, the night was quiet. The past weeks had seen the citizens of Mhaura sleep soundly, something the past years had rarely accomplished. Gone were the voices carried by the mercenaries on particularly rowdy tavern nights, no longer would sudden clashes of steel or alarmed cries startle the town from it's slumber. It was almost eerie, and if the people weren't so exhausted after each day's work, they likely would have found the change odd.

The new reign had a hand in this,  ...</description>

			<dc:creator>Sphinx</dc:creator>
			<description>This day had seen a change in Mhaura, like the one so many before it. Today Njarra Tiahlee had officially named herself regent of the nation, and set her newly appointed guards to cleaning the streets, giving the citizens some hope for the future. The declaration had been brief and by large very unceremonial, but that was what many knew to expect from their new leader.

There had been cheering as the people were given a verification to all they had hoped for, but likewise many people who looked  ...</description>

			<description>Vance sat back in his chair, almost reclined while he watched the passing citizens of Jeuno through his shades. On the occasion, he would stare upon certain females that spurred his interest while they walked by. A few would exchange looks, but would just walk off; ignoring Vance. He shifted in his chair to find a more comfortable spot; a sigh pushing past his lips in disappointment of his failure in finding one.

			<description>The trigger is slightly squeesed, sending the hammer slamming into the end of the bullet.  The impact causes a tiny explosion within the barrel which propels the projectile forward at an amazing speed.  It exits the muzzle and crashes into the chestplate of an Antican several feet away.  The soft lead bullet spreads on impact, crushing out against the creature's carapace before pushing further into its body and tunneling through its flesh.  The lead blob leaves through the creature's back with  ...</description>

			<description>The night outside was beautiful beyond compare, the serenity of sarutabaruta well downplayed all the dangers within. The red glow of ifrit's moon in it's fullest shone it's light all across Vana'diel - standing sole witness to the two shapes carefully creeping their way across the walls of the nation of Windurst. The two mithra made their way down with expert skill using only a rope as their tool - a rope they left in place for when they'd later return.



Silently the pair slipped down, and  ...</description>

			<dc:creator>DarkValkyr</dc:creator>
			<description>Clink, clink, clink, clink, rang the tiny frame of an automaton, dressed in leather and crossbow in hand, making its way through the residential area at night. Its errand was quite simple; to return some borrowed materials taken from a resident someways in the complex. It's life-like thoughts rang in its mind as he wandered, enjoying the stroll in moonlight, and all was quiet, very calm and enjoyable as he hauled a sack that was tied around his neck.



Wow, its a pretty night out. You can  ...</description>

			<description>Leh Nhacara didn't consider herself the most attractive mithra to walk the surface of Vana'diel, but she knew her fashion sense more than made up for what she lacked in that department. She had spent hours orchestrating her wardrobe for the time she'd stay in San d'Oria - for the festivities that were supposed to happen yet never did.



It really was irritating, how the assassins in this kingdom had little consideration toward other people, shooting men in public like that and ruining the  ...</description>

			<description>Regine awoke in a groggy, pain-filled daze. She blearily reached for the matted, sticky mass that clung to her face, tearing it free in an effort that brought a searing new wave of agony. She managed only a weak gasp before blacking out once more.



She awoke again she knew not how long after, dimly aware of cool still air against her aching skin. The Elvaan woman sighed gratefully for the small grace and attempted to open her eyes. She uttered a faint cry as her left lid refused to open,  ...</description>

			<description>"Why're we going here for our lunch break?"  The Hume looked up to his Galkan companion in the dim light with an annoyed look on his face.  He began to wonder just how his friend had managed to convince him to wander the back tunnels of Korroloka during their lunch break.



"I keep telling you, we're looking for something."  The Galka's reply was irritated, matching his friend's face well.



"I'll trust your word then, Voewherr."  He sighed slightly and continued following behind his friend  ...</description>

			<description>Mercenary Major Njarra Tiahlee stood on the bridge crossing over Mhaura, watching at the crowd gathered below. In her mind she went through her speech like a slow mantra to focus her mind. It calmed her down enough to put up a brave face, but she enjoyed the situation no more. She had spent a long time preparing for this, made doubly sure she'd look a person of authority yet not cruelty. She insisted on wearing the yagudo trophy to put some emphasis to her ability, and to not make her choice  ...</description>

			<description>Chieftaness Perih Vashai,



May the winds that carry my words to you be pleasant. Shikaree S, a Huntress who heeds the call of the land, greets you.



I have taken up residence in Bastok, as you have asked. They have accepted me into the Mythril Musketeers and assigned me to watch and learn their ways. I have learned very much in my time here, but nothing of value.



Their system of laws has two parts, the Constitution and the lesser laws. Both are documents written by elders, but both  ...</description>

			<dc:creator>Ayvaen</dc:creator>
			<description>Note:  I thought it'd be fun to write a transcript of some of No'en's thoughts during the Senate Meeting.







Flawed arguments often masqueraded as wisdom or tradition on the floor of the Senate.  They'd begin with a baseless but acceptable claim which ballooned into an elaborate defense of an idiotic idea, frequently with the use of irrational logical transitions.  These invalid children of emotion and reason led to poor decision-making and set back No'en's agenda, but during Senate Hearings  ...</description>
