Hey, that's some neat character development you have there, JJJ. I like it!

Thank you! I was obligated to do it at some point of the game.

Edit: Page...BREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAK!!!

JJJJJJJJ13 I'm going to kill you

-------------------------Turn 91-------------------------
Haeyuna had already retreated to her shop, you could probably go and ask her there.

Razuna, without a word to anyone, finds a tree and leans up against it, laying a log and a ferall pelt beside him.
After Renae's statement, Zuko asks her;
"Well, if you want to come we could use the help, but..." Before Zuko can express his worry, Wes cuts in.
author=Wes
"Ah, pardon miss, but I don't think it'd be a good idea for you to come. I'm sure you know how dangerous this will likely be, and while extra help would be, ah, helpful... it's simply too dangerous! I'm tempted to tell everyone else to stay here while I go and fight it alone, you see. I mean, the others, their lives would be at risk! I, how do I say it... I don't want anyone here to die, and that terror, it seems like the sort of beast who would be QUITE adept at killing. But, I know I can't defeat it alone, and I know the others likely won't be swayed if I try to convince them not to go. So, I'll just have to go in and do my best to protect them, won't I? ...What was I talking about agai-

Kairy interupts Wes
"Wes."
"Hm?"
"Shut up."
"What?! S-shut up?? But, she- it's dangerous... and, um..." he starts to stutter with his words while Zuko says.
"If she wants to lend help, we shouldn't turn it down. Who knows what she can do?"
Sighing, Wes tosses a log & a piece of ore to the ground half-heartidly.
"Speaking of which..." Kairy says as she look at Renae who, previously frowning at Wes' rejection of her help, brightened up and nodded.
"I'm trained by Haeyuna, I can attack, though not very well, and heal."
She says seriously. Sort of excitedly, she adds.
"I-I even know a spell that Haeyuna taught me! It heals someone completely, no matter the injury! B-but... uh... I can only use it once, then I have to rest for awhile, it's very tiring, considering it's much more advanced than my skills. B-but I'll only use it if it's absolutely necessary!"

While Renae says her skillset, Wes walks over to Fureira and hands her a Power-Stone.
"Use this, it will help you, I'm sure! That's usually what they do, anyways..."
Fureira replies;
"Thanks, I'll use it now."
and she does so. Fureira levels up!

"Ah, yes, one more thing." Wes says
"Yeah?"
"I'll need your help protecting everybody from danger! I'm sure you'll be adept at the front lines, and your fire magic! So uh, would you?"
"If that's what's decided, then yes, I will. I'm sure it would be fitting for two paladins to stand side by side! Just, uh, don't get too close. I tend to get wild with my chakrams.

Shivad looks at Bazyli desperately, thinking of trying to wear his spirit down so he wouldn't go. Instead, she stands and says
"Very well, but you stay with me, at ALL times! Sling as much magic as you like, we will break them before they get to us... hehehe... hahaha! AHAHA!"
She starts to bellow with an excited laughter.
"You'll do wonderful, now I'm sure! So, once everyone's ready... hehehe... to battle!"

Just then, a boy arrives with a piece of parchment.
"I have a list of all the armor we have! We don't have any weapons... sorry..."
he holds out the list, and Kairy takes it.
"Thanks kid. Now, let's see here..."
the list reads:
x25 of any bolts you desire
x2 Suscapee Scale Armor Sets
x1 Burinsteel Armor Set

Sorry, we don't have any more.
Not a lot of sales.

"Alright, I think it's decided then! Renae, you're in! I'm sure your skills will be useful when we fight that monster."

Then I say to the ones close to me:

"Now, if you excuse me, I'm going to see Haeyuna and see if she can upgrade my weapon..."

After saying that, I headed towards the Antique Shop.

I just nod approvingly to what Zuko says to Renae. Then I take a look at the list.

(Is Suscapee Scale armour better than Mallea? If so, Razuna and I should take those. The Burinsteel armour sounds like it'd be a good choice for either Zuko or Fureira.)

I then ask the boy: "Don't you have any shields? Our paladin's one has broken, and he could really use a new one. If necessary, I'll pay money for it, too.
Oh, and do you have elemantal bolts available? If not, I'll just take Onyx, Quartzine or whatever strong materials you have. If all goes well, you'll get the ones I didn't use back."

Then I tell the others we'll meet here again as soon as everyone is fully equipped and prepared, and head over to the Antique Shop with Zuko.

(Anything I'm forgetting?)
Right, if the boy has a shield I'd like it, but if not I think I'll go with Kairy and Zuko to the antique Shop. I'd like to ask her if she could teach me that spell she taught Renae, the heals-all-injuries one. Also I'm not entirely sure if my Holy Longsword is actually enchanted with Angelus Magic but I kinda guess not. Maybe that could be done as well? Though this is a lot for Haeyuna to do...

Not quite sure what I'd like to do, I instinctually tag along with Wes to the antique shop.
I'll go to the antique shop too, because, what the hell.

The replies that they do have shields, but he didn't know which ones. You'll have to look yourself.
"O-Oh! Wait!" Renae cries
"I'd prefer it if you didn't tell Haeyuna I'm coming with you guys. So that means no asking what you shouldn't know, that Haeyuna can teach that spell. Please."
"Well, okay then. Though, I'm not really one for keeping secrets. why try to hide it?" Wes asks
"Well, I don't want any undue drama. I'm going, whether she agrees or not, but you won't believe how difficult she'll make it. It's best to keep quiet."
Kairy says "Alright, let's go to the antique shop then. Shivad, Fureira, what will you guys do?"
"I'll head over to the armor shop, see if they can't fix my armor." Fureira says
"I'm... taking a walk..." Shivad says, then she starts heading towards the river.
"Alright, come on then Bazyli! To the antique shop!"
Everyone goes to the antique shop and enters except Renae,
"I'll wait here, in the shade." is her parting words.
Once inside, they see the altar, but Haeyuna isn't here.
"Hello? Haeyuna, are you here?" Wes calls.
After a moment the curtains in the back parts, and Haeyuna slowly enters on her cane.
"Oof, ugh... age..." once she reaches the altar she sits down and asks.
"How can I help you?

I walked towards Haeyuna and I said:

"Hi Haeyuna, I was wondering if you could upgrade my weapon like the last time we were here?"
Okay, so the Armor shop does have shields, and Renae doesn't want me to tell Haeyuna about her coming with us, so I can't ask Haeyuna about that spell...
Why did I come here with everyone then??? I'll have to ask Renae to teach me the spell, and of course I should head over to the Armor Shop... perhaps I should get everyone to tell me what, if anything, they'd want at said shop first, but after they get all this weapon enchanting settled, or maybe they'd want to head to the shop with me, and... should I get my weapon enchanted too? Hm, hadn't even thought of that...

"Right, Miss Haeyuna, I'm sure you're busy, and I'm sure you'll be even more busy after all of our requests, but if it's possible could you also enchant MY weapon? My Holy Longsword isn't actually very holy as one might think, so I would like it to be properly enchanted with Angelus magic, and perhaps a secondary enchantment of either MAGI or Water... wait a second. Do we even HAVE things necessary for enchanting? Wouldn't we need elemental essences? And runes? I can't remember if you sell those here or not, miss. Do you?"

"Hello, Haeyuna. By now, you can probably guess why I'm here as well. I got this new crossbow from the tomb, and I'd like a Force-Air enchantment on it just like on my old one. If that's not possible for you, can I just leave my gold and old crossbow here with you? I think I can trust you to give it back to me when this is over.

If Haeyuna can enchant my weapon, I'll wait for her to finish. If not, I'll head to the armour shop right away to go get our armour and Wes' shield.

P.S.: seiromem, you never answered my questions whether Suscapee Scale armour is better than Mallea, and if the weapon shop has elemental bolts available. That would be good to know.
"Can you enchant this swords with...something?
I think Gourd_Clae is the only one left to post, right?

By the way, seiromem: Is the battle against the monster the final battle of the game?
I'll ask for an angelus enchantment on my ball and chain!
Seiromem

If by "battle" you mean combat, then yes, it is the end! But I have a plan for post-game, so you'll have to beat the game first! Oh, and live, that would help.

Surpelwhatever scale is SCALE armor while Maelasomething is METAL armor. They protect against different things. Scale protects better against crushing & piercing attacks, while metal armor protects better against slicing attacks.
-------------------------Turn 93-------------------------
"Ah, so we all want enchantments, do we? Alright, considering the service you plan to provide I can do these all for free. So, let's get down to business..."

Zuko's Blade Enchant has been upgraded to level 5!

"Sure thing, I'll hold onto your gold and crossbow, as well as enchant your new one."

Kairy's Compound Crossbow is enchanted with Force-Air Lvl1!
"Yes indeed, I Can enchant that sword with something! You and your friend Wes are going to have to be more specific, I'm not a mind reader... yet. Decide on what you want!"

"Oh, well I'll do that for you little boy... uh... Sorry, I cannot enchant smelted Valkinite. The ore is already enchanted and I cannot remove it without destroying the ball."

2100 CEIL * a large wooden crossbow deposited with Haeyuna!
"Force, enchant them with Force"

FINAL BATTLE!? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
"Oh no, that's prefectly fine." I assure her "I only wanted it since evryone else was getting an enchantment but I already have one it seems!"
I take my sword back and I say to Haeyuna:

"Thanks! This will be useful to dispatch that monster!"

After everyone is ready I go back to the kid who sells armor.

Also seiromem, good detail that Haeyuna enchants our weapons for free before the final battle instead of charging us for it like in other RPG's! XD

One question! Which armor that selled the kid can Zuko use?
"Ah, right, please enchant this sword with Angelus and MAGI!

Once everything's enchanted I'll head along to the Armor shop with Zuko.

"Thank you, Haeyuna. You kept your calm in this mess, which made this all a lot easier. With your help, I'm confident I'll come back in one piece to retrieve my treasure."

I've decided I'm going to keep my Mallea armour on, but I'll still go to the weapon shop with the others to take a look at the bolts they offered me.

"Come on, guys, we need to hurry a bit. Can't lose too much time now."
