Digital Viginette: Gemdust Cave

"This is it. Gemdust Cave," Miresa announced as they approached the entrance to a large, gray, and rocky cavern. Although the path ahead was dark, there were the occasional gleams of light sparkling from the inside.

"Are those lights from gems?" Arune asked as she flitted by Miresa. Miresa nodded.

"Yes. Bradlin and I like to come to this cave often. This place is a huge source of Gemdust, which as you know, is what we use to uncover gems that lie in the Aoi River," she explained. As they got further in the cave, the light from the gemdust lit the cave in a light blue hue.

"I can actually see now!" Arune exclaimed.

"Some of the enemies in here carry Gemdust on them. So let's be on the lookout," Miresa added. But Arune's wings twitched as she felt the wind of an approaching earth bat.

"Watch out!" Arune cried. The bat barely missed Miresa as she ducked from its approaching dive. The bat's wings were covered in a rocky crust, symbolizing its Earth element. The bat raised its wings and flapped them violently, releasing a screeching supersonic wave.

"Be careful, Arune!" Miresa shouted over the loud roar of the waves.

"I've had enough of this!" Arune exclaimed. "Foam Shower!" She yelled as she raised her tiny rapier at the bat. Blue magical energy swirled around the sword and soon turned into a foamy water. She swung her sword, making the water fly towards the bat.

The ball of water exploded upon hitting the bat, resulting in a large splash. The sonic waves subsided as the bat fell to the ground. "Good job, Arune!" Miresa said as she walked over to the bat's remains. Light glittered from the wings of the bat.

"Is that what I think it is?" Arune asked as she flitted towards the substance.

"Yes, that's Gemdust," Miresa explained as she gathered the dust into a small bag. She tied a rope around the top of the bag and shook it. "We have what we came for, but how about we continue ahead? There may be some rare jewels deeper in the cave."

"Sure! The day is still young after all," Arune replied as they both continued through the glittering cavern......

Idea: Field spells

One new idea we are considering is the addition of HM-like field spells--if we go ahead with this idea, what kinds of field spells would you want to see (besides the obvious healing spells)?

If it's a bad idea, why do you believe it is a bad idea? ("Because it's terrible" and the derivatives thereof are not acceptable answers, because it doesn't answer WHY you believe it is a bad idea--and if we know why, we can better tweak the idea)

A New Beginning...

The story begins...here

Now with a new prologue and a walking tour of the new Telrain.

Miresa's Diary

One major change we're making in this draft is in how to remind people what they should be doing--a journal system--or rather, Miresa's diary
