Vana'Diel View: Anemone's Day

Observing Vana'Diel
A day in the life of my Final Fantasy XI Character, Anemone

Today was like any other day in Vana'Diel, nothing too out of the ordinary. I yawned and strected as I slowly opened my eyes, the morning rays of light creeped in through the small window of my Mog House. Sitting up in the bed of my rental room, I swung both feet to the side while streching once more. I rubbed the sleep out of my eyes, and sleepily walked over to talk to, Moogle. He was chipper, like usual, as he fluttered up and down with his purple bat-like wings. With a friendly "Kupo", he handed me some money from my mailbox where he kept most of my vauables. I petted my fluffy and fuzzy moogle then headed out the door.
Leaving the residential area of Lower Jeuno at a jogging pace, I Bumped into a few other adventurers as I heading toward the Auction House. Tapping on the auction counter, a voice from the window said, "What do you wish to purchase?" Thinking to myself about it, I asked for the "food section." After looking through what the Auction House had to offer, I decided to go with some Mithkabobs, adventurers could buy them singly or in a stack of twelve. I went with the stack believing it would last longer on the journey. As the stack of kabobs came through to the other side of the window they sizzled with the sound of freshly cooked meat. looking down, I could see the meat and peppers steaming because they had just come off the grill. I grabbed the kabobs, pushed the sack of gil I had through to the other side of the counter, wrapping up the kabobs, and tossing them in with the rest of my gear.
After rearranging the gear within my item sachet, turning around, I began walking toward the small fountain that was a few steps behind the Auction House. Sitting down at the base of the the fountain and looking around, I noticed various adventurers running back and forth through the streets of Jeuno. I faced the fountain and dipped my fingers into the water, letting them dance around the water's edge. I took my hand out of the water and dried it against my checker-plated armor that I was wearing. Getting up slowly, I began to stroll along the streets of Lower Jeuno. I ignored most the other adventurers that passed me by. As my stroll was nearing its end, I noticed I had wound up at the entrance to the luscious, green Rolanberry Fields. Continuing to walk, I spotted the guard Alrauvererat of Lower Jeuno, and greeting him.
After having a nice long talk with Alrauvererat, he asked me if I would care for the benefical magic know as signet, that would aid me in battle. agreeing with him, I watching as he raised up his hand, the sun bouncing of my armor, almost blinding me. Alrauvererat then asked if I needed a magic scroll of instant warp. pausing for a moment, I began to look within my item sachet. I could not find one and as I looking up at Alrauvererat, to tell him I did not have a warp scroll in my possesion, he then asking if I would care to use my conquest points I had accrued up over the course of my adventures. Nodding to him, he handing over the warp scroll, and I tossing it into the item sachet with all my other gear. closing up my item sachet, as I turned my head and noticing the sun was beginning to set. I picking up my sachet, heading quickly back to the residential area, and entering my rented Mog House.
walking inside, Moogle was estatic I had returned, as he cheerfully fluttered up and down with his little purple bat-like wings . Checking with my Moogle, the mailbox was empty, and he uttered a sad "kupo". Smiling and saying it was all right, I petted his furry little head, the red pom-pom bouncing back and forth. walking over to the bed, I slowly stretching and yawning as I laid down. closing my eyes, I drifting into a light sleep. Soon after however, the voice of another adventurer awoke me, asking me to join his group to fight monsters. I gladly accepting the invite and was quite amazed since the job class of dragoon was not invited very often. jumping out of bed, I quickly waved farewell to Moogle, and heading out the door, The leader and the rest of the group were in the beautiful Gardens of Ru’Lude, located at the top of Jeuno, and I decided the quickest method of arriving would be the elevator connecting the various levels of the Residential District. While searching for the group’s members, a discussion began on how one member was going to get to the the Eastern Altepa Desert since he did not have the Teleport Crystal that would allow for teleportation, and he decided disbanding was the best option. the group however, then deciding Crawler's Nest was the best place to fight monsters since it was just on the outskirts of Rolanberry Fields.
Finally, after the little squable was settled, the group leader nrought back the orginal member that had left earlier. At last, the team was ready and we heading toward Lower Jeuno's Chocobo Stables. As we got to the stables, the bright, yellow-plumed, two-legged riding birds let out a large "kweh" as they seemed to be excited. We talking to the attendant, handing her a bag of gil to rent the chocobos, and we were off. My new Vana'Diel adventure.
