Hello, im a new writer and all, this story is based off of my game character from the PC MORPG game Mabinogi. I do not own Mabinogi or any of the characters except for my own (Seaberrie) Im not really good with writing but I wanted to give it a try, let me know what you think of the story. The story is about my character's story, like if it was real to her. Its just what I was thinking about, again I don't own any of the characters except for Seaberrie everyone else are NPCs in the game owned by Nexon
Chapter 1: Seaberrie
Another beautiful Baltane (Tuesday) in Tir Chonaill, I just got home to the village after selling in the town of Dunbarton. Grandpa doesn't like me leaving the village by myself. He always wants me to take Trevor with me but he's an old geezer, he just stands around all day sleeping and farting. Most of the time I'm sneaking away while Grandpa watches over the village. After Mom died from disease years ago and Papa died in the war, I've been living in Tir Chonaill with Grandpa Duncan. Oh I forgot to introduce myself; my name is Seaberrie, 17 year old apothecary, warrior, archer, and healer. I like to go out on adventures and travel but Grandpa wants me to just stay in the village making potions for the sick. He doesn't believe in girls like me being warriors. Normal days I will be helping Dilys tending to the injured and learning more about the different herbs and potions to make.
I sneak my bow and swords out of the house down to my good friend Ferghus, (even though to most of the villagers he's known as "The Weapon Breaker") he has never broken any of my weapons.
"Hey little Berrie, what'cha need me to fix today?" asks Ferghus as I approach his shop.
"I need my bow string to be tightened up some, it's really lose and I need the cracks in my swords to be fixed," I explain. I hand him my bow and my swords and watch him examine them.
"Hmm…this is gonna cost a little with these cracks, what have you been up too," Ferghus asks me. He walks in with my weapons and finds the right tools to fix them. I roll my eyes and tell him
"I've been in a lot of dungeons lately and I haven't had a chance till now to get them fix, I nearly broke my bow from hitting a jackel in the head, I explain as I sit on some hay inside his shop.
How much am I gonna have to pay you?"
Ferghus looks over my swords and says, "Well since you're the Chiefs granddaughter I would say 10k for the swords and 7k for the bow." I sigh in disappointment I thought I was gonna have to pay just 10k.
"Alright 17k it is then," I reach into my dress and hand him a check for 20k. His eyes sparkle at the sight of a 20k check. He reaches into his box and hands me back 3k. After that I say good bye and head back to Grandpas before he realizes I'm gone. I have to go out tonight to pick up my weapons. I get back to the house and look around for Grandpa and I don't see him, I look around the house and inside and he isn't there. I start to panic a bit then I see him standing the cemetery. I walk over to him and notice he's in front of Grandma's grave and sigh with sadness.
As I approach Grandpa, he apparently heard me and he turns around and smiles. "Hello, my beautiful Granddaughter...where have you been the past few hours," Grandpa asks. I try not to make it obvious that I went to the blacksmith shop, so I kinda make up a lie.
"Um...I went to go check up on Luna down at the stables," I say nervously. Luna is my beautiful white horse Grandpa gave to me after Momma passed, I named her Luna because of her mane shining brightly in the moonlight. I fiddle my legs around to make it seem like I was at the stable and when I look at Grandpa he gives me that look. The look that says "Ok spill the beans, where were you really" and I try to think of a distraction. Then I remembered,
"Hey Grandpa, what are we gonna cook for dinner? Can we have curry rice?" now that I asked about dinner I feel hungry.
Grandpa chuckles and sighs, "We can't have curry tonight my dear, Alissa brought over some flour and I got Caitin to make us some nice bread. She also brought over some cheese, so we are having Cheese Bread for dinner." I groan in disappointment I was really in the mood for some curry tonight. We head back into the house and I spy Weird Cat sitting by Grandpa's chair. We stare at each other for a good minute then I break the eye contact and go sit on my bed. I look over to my bed table and see Grandmas locket. I open it up and see Momma and Papa together with a baby me on one side and I see a young Grandma and Grandpa on the other side. I smile at the pictures and then I close the locket and put it under my pillow.
After Grandpa and I eat our Cheese Bread, he heads to bed and I remember that I have to pick up my weapons. After awhile I make sure Grandpa is fully asleep and I quietly leave the house and head to the blacksmith shop. I approach Ferghus' house and I knock the door. Ferghus opens the door and lets me inside.
"Let me go get your swords and bow," he walks into his workshop to fetch them. He comes back a minute later with my weapons and hands them to me. I thank him and quickly head home. I open the door very quietly and I hide my weapons in the closet so Grandpa doesn't see them. I check on him to make sure he's still sleeping and he is. I sigh in relief and I head to my bed and I put my nightgown on and head to bed. There's something really important I'm gonna ask Grandpa tomorrow.
