ShadowStorm88 Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 "Aww, thats a real disappointment" Val complained aloud, as he shook his his head in sadness at the sight of help wants for adventures on the notice board posted outside of Sugarcube corner. Or lake thereof really. It had been two weeks since he had gone on a real adventure, and he wasnt bored out of his mind. He was going completly crazy!!! For some ponies, they had a means to keep themslves business and entertained. By doing various chores, and exerceries to keep one's self happy. For Valoren Seeker, his means of happiness we're adventures!! Going to many different places, meeting many new friends, uncovering and recovering artificats that were exotic and rare for either just the sake of the adventuring. Infact, an adventuer for him wasnt completle without various traps, horrible monsters that wanted to kill, or destory something, and a ticking clock of a race against time; complete with an epic climax. Looking up, he remembered what happened when he had to escort a pair of zebra couple all the way back to there homeland. It had been a long trip, mostly cause of the bad weather. Constant storms were raging all around, the wind had become dangerously high, and it was getting hard to see. That, and with the dimaond dogs constantly chasing after the Zebras; wanting to get there horrid paws around the dimaond's they were transporting. To say that he had been exhausted after the entire ordeal was over would be the understatment of the millenieum. But he was pleased though he had been able to help, and get some bits along the way. But now here he was, two weeks later and no pony wanted help. Lowering his head in depression, Val turned away from the notice board as he went to get himself some lunch.

Ashton Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 As The stallion walked he might by chance overhear a colt looking in the window of a shop and sighing "no, no no... it's all too... to common" he said, though the older pony would not know it, that was quite an insult coming from a trottingham pony "I need something special, something rare... I want her to know she means something special to me... that she's too good for this common rubbish..." If Val looked he would see a Pinto pony with a red neckerchief, he looked to be around (11-12 human years), and clearly he had a special somepony on his mind that he was trying to find a gift for, something rare...

Dunder Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 Dunder Blust was standing nearby. He was trotting along slowly as he looked through the glass of the shops. His rapier scabbard ways lightly as he slowly trotted along. This colt was attracting a lot of attention by the way he was active criticism of the items in the stores. He was getting on Dunder's nerves too. He could tell he was from of the richer cities. He was also a colt so he couldn't tell him to calm down unless he wanted the guards after him.

ShadowStorm88 Posted May 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 Valoren blinked as he wondered to himslef how he could do this. Letting out an oof as somepony bumped past him, he turned back in time to watch him disapper just as fast. He had been waiting, and waiting and still nothing. How was he gonna keep going on like this??!! If he didnt do something, not only would he go hugnry; but he'd go totally bonkers. Horrifying images of when Discord had taken over, and what he had done to that one pony; with the twirly cap on her head, and her eyes going totalty nuts. "I'll probably end up like that unless..WAIT, I got it" he grinned, an idea rushing to his idea. Rushing to the center of town, which was the most popular spot; he looked at the giant stand that was filled with notices. He'd just put something up right here!! Quickly writing something on a board he had, he attached it to the stand as he then stood next to it. SEEKING ADVENTURE, WILL ASSIST ANY AND ALL" read the sign as Val looked around, hoping somepony would come soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashton Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 ((Why am I suddenly reminded of Lucy's "Psychiatric Help" stand from Charlie Brown... ))Pip heard the noise and followed it to the stand, there was a spark of interest in his eyes "Are you a Questor?" he asked "have you seen far off lands?" there seemed to be some kind of chain of thought to what he was asking... clearly he had something else he was going to ask based on the answers the stallion gave...

Dunder Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 Dunder heard the pony cry out a call for adventure. This was definitely something that Dunder would be interested... even more so if payment was in order. Dunder almost instantly trotted up to the pony who just cried out the request. "I can definitely join." He said with a smile. "I already know what I'm doing when it comes to adventuring and I'm more than capable of defending myself." He said.

ShadowStorm88 Posted May 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 Val blinked as he looked around eagerly, hearing the voice of one asking if he was a questor. Not seeing the speaker, Val looked down and found himself staring at a young foal. Smiling lightly, he thought to himself "Intersted in adventuring at a young age? Heh, kinda reminds me of me". Nodding in response, he answered "Yup, Im an adventurer, and yes I have traveled to many differnet places. From Stalliongrad, to the Badlands, to Ushanti, and all over. Why do you ask"? Suddenly, another pegasus who was slightly taller then Val, and perhaps abit older appraoched; claiming he wanted to join. "Ahh, hello there. I dont know what the adventure is, or if there is one but I always welcome company". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashton Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 Pip smiled "so you've seen a lot of different places... anyplace with something rare and unique, something that would win a filly's heart the moment she laid eyes on it?" he asked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunder Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 [slightly taller? Dunder is taller than an average pony XD]"So.... you are saying adventure is available... but adventure is not really available?" Dunder asked. He turned his head, confused. He wondered if this pony had been pulling his leg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowStorm88 Posted May 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 "Something that would win a young filly's heart? Im afaird your going to have to be a bit more specific" Val smiled weakly to the little guy as he put a hoof to his chin. "Hmmm, but...I think i might have heard of something like that. It's based off an old folklore I head once". Blinking, he turned to the other pegasus as he smiled "Ahh, I guess adventure is avalible. Im just trying to figure out what is it". (Next post ill explain the lore, and sry for late response. I just beat Mass effect 3 and by god, I can see why everyone hated the ending. Even though my Shephard survived, Im still disapointed) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashton Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 Pip looked like he was starting to have his doubts about this adventurer, but at the moment this was about the only lead he had unless he wanted to spend hours in the library going through old books trying to find anything "what did you find?" he asked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunder Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 Dunder sat down. He watched as the two other ponies exchanged remarks. He was just waiting for any more details on the possible adventure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowStorm88 Posted May 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 Val smiled, amazed that he had there attention. "Well, the legend has it that along time ago before Equestria was ruled, the elemental energy of magic that made up all of the world was more out of control. Magic was much more powerful, and therefore more diffiuclt to control. However, during this time where ponies were distruting of each other due to a power struggle, there was one pony who wanted to fix it all, and open up everypony to the concept of love. His name was Eros, and he was madly in love with the princess of that time. Sadly however, she didnt return his feelings unless he could prove himself. For this, he went out in search of the Everlasting rose, a flower so beautiful and so powerful; that no pony could resist it's sight, nor the powerful pheromones that lied within it. Retrieving the flower, Eros was surprised that its effects worked!! The amount of passion he felt for the princess was overwhelming. Sadly however, its effects failed to work on her because by the time he returned from his journey; she had already fallen for somepony else. Ero's gave up, and became a hermit; devoid of any love and completly depleted of passion" finsihed Valoren with an almost saddened tone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashton Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 Pip frowned slightly "stories are great, and the flower sounds like it could be exactly what I was looking for... but have you actually seen it, or are you just recounting tales you've read about?" he asked, skeptical...

Dunder Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 "This sounds like more of a story than anything else. Are there any evidence of this actually happening?" Dunder asked. He wasn't here to go around chasing fairy tales. He wanted to go out and get paid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
