001st Forged Devil: Like a Fallen Angel [Action, Voice]

[curseresistant]

[The journal picks up a glimpse of the sky as it falls to the cold dirt, followed by a skewed view of the forest. Things are quiet -- almost eerily so.]

[That's when, with a horribly heavy-sounding thud, a pale-skinned, white-winged, and white-haired man unceremoniously drops into view, faint wisps of breath barely visible from his mouth. Were it not for that, he would certainly appear to be dead.]

[The feed cuts off not too long after that, the journal closed by a strong gust of wind.]

[Much later in the afternoon, before the shops close for the evening, Hector busies himself with finding his belongings. He lingers in the smithy for a while, browsing armor and weaponry before moving along to the plaza.]

I am told that these 'journals' can send my voice to others. If there are others listening, I am Hector. I have only recently arrived here in... Luceti.

Would any of you know where I could acquire [...] raw materials? I would like to... work on something.

[Belle is busy helping around the library that afternoon. She's been taught how to alphabetize and shelve the books, and that's what she's doing when she hears a voice over the journal.

Another new arrival. There's nothing particular there, since they have been flooded with new people for the past couple of weeks. What surprises her is the man isn't asking to know more information about the place he's arrived in. Instead he wants materials to work?]

Good day monsieur. What kind of materials are you in search of? Anything specific?

[curseresistant]

Primarily crystals and basic metals, m'lady. I'm a... smith of sorts.

[funnygirl]

Oh. Well, I'm not sure about the crystals. But I believe you can possibly find various metals in the Item Shop.

[curseresistant]

Your help is a great boon to me, m'lady.

Now... if I may be allowed to ask, to whom do I have the pleasure of speaking?

[funnygirl]

I'm just happy I can help. I hope you find what you're looking for.

My name is Belle.

[curseresistant]

T'is a pleasure to meet you, Lady Belle. You may call me Hector.

I hope that we are able to meet in person, someday.

[funnygirl]

It's a pleasure to meet you, Hector.

I hope so as well. Although, if you ever happen by the library you'll most likely find me. I help shelve the books and such.

[curseresistant]

Then, I will certainly stop by at a later time.

T'would be rude of me to not properly introduce myself, after all.

[funnygirl]

You can stop by any time. I'm often there nearly every day. Perhaps I could suggests some books for you to read, if that's something you would like. We have quite the selection.
