dinner bells || pixie, shutter.
The journey from Swynden to Aelbourne did not take as long as it did when Shutter first started the game and it was lucky too. Especially since he promised a meal to someone.
"Almost there," Shutter smiled happily as he continued his walk. He slid his scythe into the compartment on is back. There was no need for to hold it out while he was in Aelbourne, there weren't too many monsters for him to worry about.
Aelbourne was exactly as he remembered it, however. Plenty of players settled around the area, a good variety of them looked young and still a little scared. Shutter felt bad for them. He stopped a few times to lend a helping hand; potions were pricey for new players, so he made sure to give some away. All he'd do in return is smile and keep going.
Shutter stopped in mid-step and realized one very important detail: "I forgot to ask her where we were going to meet up in Aelbourne. Oh, crap. ... I'll keep walking around and look for her. Hopefully, she's near by."
