Mining Mingle!

GATHERING

Posters had begun to go up, written in many languages and given many different names, but it was clear. A big mining trip had been planned, but the one who signed the papers seemed to neglect a name. People could keep what they got! Outside, however, a small wisp of darkness had been left - holding equipment. It doesn't seem to know exactly how to explain what's going to happen - seeming to mumble about green pigs and nice rocks.

Or, if you're not going in, why not catch up with some friends? There's also food which has been left out - fresh fruits and the like.

Entering the mines, however, there's an old minecart... and stairs downwards. Seems there's no instructions... but there's rusted old weapons scattered around. And pickaxes.
 
INSIDE THE MINES

It doesn't take long for anybody to find things in the mines - though it begins as just stone and coal, soon people will be finding copper ore, amethyst, topaz, quartz - and even earth crystals! Just watch out - if you hit a rock wrong, you might get knocked back a little. Or some of the old mine might cave in...! There's stairs further and further downwards.

However... there seems to be somebody very invested in certain walls, running their hands against them. If you mine there? There seems to be a heavier rock, even if it looks like coal.
 
MONSTERS

Of course, the darkness lures creatures. There's slimes, sure. There's also bats, and Rock Crabs - perhaps even blocking your pickaxe! And there's also Slimes. But if you're not careful...

Well, the Green Pigs the weird wisp was whispering about? Actually Creepers. Some seem to be electrocuted, even! Make sure you don't fall down and lose your wealth! Are you going to protect somebody, or not? Or are you cutting though them easily?
 
MISC

Or did you have something else in mind?

[After hearing about the mining trip from the notice board, Ryder didn't hesitate to join in. However, it's not only to mine gems to make jewelry for his new business and for his future friends but to hopefully protects any other miners from danger. Just hearing about those "green pigs" and some accidents worry him very much.

Right now, not only he brought a first-aid kit along with his backpack to store the gems and ores, but he wears his protective clothes that he brought along in Starhue. Sure, he's not in his werewolf form right now, but it's better to prepare for the worst.

As for mining, swinging a pickaxe can be a bit difficult for him. Yet his abilities as a Lupus Argentum werewolf spirit lessen his burden on the weight, allowing him to mine with fewer injuries. So far, he got some gems such as sapphire and amethyst, but he wonders what to do about some ores like copper as he doesn't need them right now.]


I should throw these copper away, but I feel that others might need them. Oh man, what do I do...?

[Ryder is not alone in the mine. Somebody is also on the same level of the mine with him, also doing the same thing, using the tools of a hammer and pick-axe to dig for jewels, metals, and precious gems.

It's dark down here, but the vampire can see perfectly in the dark, and the monsters are weak to him and gave him no trouble.

Alucard realized of the other voice...a child? A wolf? This is interesting. There was one werewolf in his world, but he's the last one, and there's no longer werewolves in his world. They all but extinct and Alucard never saw another for 30 years.

Ryder will hear a voice, almost a Transylvanian accent.]


Do you know what they're for little one? You should keep those and give them to the blacksmith. He can melt them to make pipes or coins.

[Of course, he will hear a voice. In fact, as he turns around, he is surprised at the tall figure walking towards him.]

O-Oh... They can make something like those with copper? Strange... Usually, back in Anima, they often make them as daggers and shields. Of course, I'm not the type to use them since I often rely on my bare hands.

[Not to mention his claws.]

Are they even used in jewelry and other stuff?

They can be made into weapons too. I believe I had seen copper being made into jewelry as well.

What were you doing mining at this late hour? You seem awfully young to be mining alone. But then again I had seen kids your age wandering around.

Ah, I see. Guess I'll endure with a heavy bag then.

[He then stores his copper ores in his bag.]

Don't worry about it. I don't look much, but I'm a werewolf Spirit from Anima. Besides, I feel this hour is very helpful for my abilities.

Bring a bigger bag next time, if you're planning to reign in a bigger haul. It's good to plan ahead.

Oh a werewolf spirit? [He's really interest in this young lad now.] I'm a vampire. My name is Alucard, by the way. It's nice to meet you.

Did you come to the valley with a family here or on your own?

Good idea.

[After storing his ores away, he then takes out his amulet from his bag's pocket.]

Nice to meet you, too. Though to be honest, this is my first time meeting a true bonafide vampire.

[As he said this, his amulet begins to blow, causing his hair to grow and turns silver while his eyes became golden yellow. At the same time, his ears turned into wolf ears while black claws grow from his fingers. Lastly, a bushy tail grows on his rear as the amulet's glow disappears.]



Actually, I'm on my own here. But so far, I'm good living with my own right now.

[Alucard watches his transformation with curiosity. He has never seen a transformation via a magical talisman before. So this is something quite new to him.]

So you are on your own? I see.

[Brave kid this one.]

So in this form, are you much stronger and faster than an average human?
lycannerd: (Den Smile)

[personal profile] lycannerd 2018-07-16 02:47 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. Not only that, I'm also a Lupus Argentum, so I possess not only high affinity to the moon, but my wounds will heal immediately. Though it doesn't heal mortal injuries, so I have to be careful.

[He then stores his amulet on his belt.]

My grandfather is also a Lupus Argentum werewolf. But he left Anima and became human to retire. You could say that continuing his work as a protector back home.

[personal profile] vlad_the_impaler 2018-07-16 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
So it's almost similar to my vampire powers. I can heal most injuries, run faster, and have increased strength. Though it has always been like that for me.

[Alucard nods when he listens as he spoke of his family.]

You must have missed them. Your family. Until then, you and I, let's be friends in this valley. As I enjoy the company of wolves and when they howl, it's a beautiful song that reminds me of the moon and the untamable wild.

Anyway, I was on my way out to go home. Would you like to come with me and exit the cave?
lycannerd: (Den Smile)

[personal profile] lycannerd 2018-07-17 07:27 am (UTC)(link)
I see. Guess vampires have their differences between other ones as well.

[Den's smile became gentle as he remembers his family back home in Solum.]

Well, I really do miss them. But I still keep my human memories in my heart. Even I'm a different race doesn't mean I can forget them. Still, I accept your friendship, sir.

[Den nods to him as he swung his now heavy bag around his shoulder.]

Sure, I'm cool with that.
