Story footnotes for easy reference

[Formalhaut]

Right-O! It's the weekend, so I shall be temporarily taking over Shion's impeccable role as the footnoter. I will probably, nigh, definitely make mistakes, so feel free to smack me with a trout if I mess up. And now, without further ado...

Currently, the only new story is Bleys, but what I'll do is update this as Saturday rolls along. It's the weekend so I'm expecting some exciting additions to our stories!


Citizen Bleys
Still lost, Desmond decides to follow a road in the hopes that it will lead him to civilisation.
His attempts at catching rabbits eventually succeeds, and manages to hunt several.
Desmond is suddenly held at Crossbow-point by a thief. Desmond attempts to 'Spike' the thief's relative lethargy and lack of confidence.
Unfortunately, the youth fires his Crossbow, creating a gash in Desmond's cheek.
Primal instinct takes over Desmond and he viciously strangles the boy until the life drains out of him. He has never killed a man before.
His senses back, he realises the enormity of what he has just done.
Quickly hiding, he slumps by a tree, and wonders to himself why the boy he has just killed spoke and looked like a Nexan.

Madonna
"Blackie" Ganister, a Doban, checks the straps and harnesses of his Cargo Chocobos. He is expecting two sellers to arrive for a legally dubious exchange in the Betheron Wylds.
They haven't arrived at the expected time, and thoughts cross through Blackie's head as to why.
Passing the time, he begins sketching, one of his talents.

*Devore*
Azelin has just arrived in the world of Sedorra. His emotions are highly frayed as he contemplates violence, but knows better, and sheaths his kunai.
Maggie, a Hyu'man lady, stumbles into Azelin and, mistaking him for a Doban, asks if he is alright.
Stumbling over the common tongue of Sedorra, Azelin manages to ask for directions to a library or bookstore, but is told they are closed on account of the Queen's Festival in Lucrecia.
Maggie and the other lady offer to take Azelin to 'The Ceiling Cat', a tavern that is frequented by many Doban. Seeing no other option, he complies, and joins the two ladies.

During the morning, Locke visits Serrine's house one last time to check that they will be alright while he is away. Serrine assures Locke that they will do just fine.
Locke travels along the O'Hare Highroad, bound towards Lucrecia in what will take approximately two days.
During the evening, Locke sets up his camp for the night. Sounds coming from a short distance away startle him, but it is only Alistair, who followed Locke at a distance.
Alistair is insistent that he stays with Locke, to ensure he does not die like his father did.
Locke attempts to reason with the child. After some time, he comes up with a compromise.
Locke will allow Alistair to join him to Lucrecia, though under strict supervision. He goes to sleep, even more anxious about what will happen at Lucrecia.
