Perspective — Narrator
Maginia: Town Square
The party are now in the town square after defeating the Berserker King and another unexpected enemy. They are now approached by Maginia soldier and their commander, Mueller.
Mueller: Ah, Meisa Guild. We heard you've bested the Berserker King, the demon that slayed many of our soldier.
Captain: Thank you, Meisa Guild.
Soldier: Thank you for avenging our fallen comrades!
A group of soldiers encircles the party, and each casts their blessing.
Diko: Whoa!
Rolio: Hey! Leave some space!
Lacia: H-Hey!
Neigal: ...
Bile: This is fu- freaking obnoxious.
Once they are finished. Mueller speaks up.
Mueller: Well then, Meisa Guild... Be sure to deliver the news of your success to HQ as well.
Mueller and the soldiers thank the party once again before leaving.
Bile: With that out of the way, let's go report the result.
Expedition HQ
Diko: Your highness. We have slayed the Berserker King at the lowest floor of the Lush Woodlands, as well as the beast that appeared afterward... um.
Bile: Cernunnos.
Diko: Yeah that.
Persephone: ...I see. Well done, Meisa Guild. You've done what many an adventurer should strive to accomplish. Adventurers and soldiers alike have been praising your exploits, and some are even waiting to see you this very moment. I'm sure the feeling is mutual, so by all means, come forth! Show them you've made a safe return.
Wiglaf, Oliver, and Marco then appeared to congratulate the party.
Wiglaf: You're back, Meisa Guild! We've been waiting for you!
Oliver: You did it, Meisa Guild! I'll have to treat you to that steak I promised!
Marco: ...Oliver, shouldn't you be thanking them first? Anyway, Meisa Guild, thank you for saving us earlier.
It seems that everyone is in good spirits following the adventure through the Lush Woodlands
Marco: That soldier is also doing well. He asked that we say thank you on his behalf.
Oliver: All right, Meisa Guild, how do you want yours cooked? Rare? Medium? Well-done? Just say the word!
Wiglaf: Yeesh, Oliver... Just hearing that's making me hungry. Mind if I join you?
And so, the three of them join you in celebration... After watching you celebrate for some time, Persephone turns to you and speaks.
Persephone: Meisa Guild. Many were lost to that forest, and you avenged them all. Magnificent work.
She then bring out some money. 1000 entals to be exact.
Persephone: This is to reward you for all you've done. Please accept it.
Bile: This is great!
Persephone: Thanks to you, we've cleared the Lush Woodlands. However, there are still many unexplored areas left on the island. Once you've had some rest, there's a new labyrinth I'd like you to explore... I know I can count on you.
Diko: ...
Persephone: ...
Bile: ...
They all stand awkwardly.
Diko: Is... that it?
Persephone: ... Yes.
Bile: Honestly, I thought you will say you're done or that we're dismissed.
Persephone: My apologies.
Diko: Well... let's go everybody.
They then walk out, awkwardly.
Maginia: Town Square 9 am
Rolio: So, what do we do now?
Diko: Maybe take a break and rendezvous at the Explorers Guild?
Neigal: Not a bad idea as long as we stay in the city.
Bile: Rendezvous? So we are allowed to split up?
Diko: Yeah.
Bile: I'm fine with that.
Laica: Well, I'm going to stick with Rolio. Is that okay?
Diko: Well, anything goes really.
Bile: So when do we meet up?
Diko: Umm. maybe 1 pm?
Bile: That's a long time, is everyone fine with that?
Rolio: I'm okay with that.
Lacia: So do I
Neigal: Me as well.
Diko: Okay then, the break start now.
Each member then split up, except for Rolio and Lacia, who stay as a duo.
Perspective — Bile
Now that I think about it, what will I do? Hm? Oh it's the unsettling farmer girl.
?: Hi there, strategist.
Bile: Not this again.
?: Hm?
Bile: Why do you people keep calling me that?
?: Well. you're the one who stated that you'd rather be called that.
Bile: That was sometime ago! Just call me by my name.
?: Okay then, Bile.
There's just something very unsettling about her.
Bile: By the way, what are you doing here?
?: Just here to inform you that I'll be hanging in the Primitive Jungle.
What?
Bile: Did you just say Primitive Jungle?
?: Yeah, it's on the Island of Solitude.
Bile: Is that so?
Then again, the labyrinth from Tharsis is here, so one from Etria might be here.
?: Well, I'll be going now
There she goes. How did those two deal with her?
Perspective — Diko
Even though I said that everyone can split up and do their own thing. I have no idea what I will do. Hmm.
Perspective — Rolio
Rolio: Let's spar to pass time.
Lacia: Okay.
Perspective — Neigal
Unfortunately I'm still exhausted from the battle against those beasts, so I can't really risk going into the labyrinth to help out adventurer that may be in there. It'll be in my best interest to rest up first. I need to go to the inn.

Explorers Guild 1 pm
