Civilization
173 Chapter 173 - Week Update HavenFall
"I wanted to inform you as soon as I had the opportunity." - Melody
"I'm still shocked that you have such a powerful skill, Melody. However, don't worry each passing day, HavenFall grows stronger. That pillar of light you saw won't happen any time soon. We have time to prepare for it." - Ian
"How can you be so sure?" - Melody
"Because Sylvia had told me that we need to prepare for a large-scale fight. Piecing together the vision you saw and the information Sylvia told me, then I'm sure the pillars of light are associated with it." - Ian
I place the equips down and start to walk closer to Melody. Once I was close enough, I place a hand on her head, ruffling her hair a bit.
"You are stressing too much. I like the Melody who is cheerful and carefree. Relax and let me protect this place." - Ian
"I-I-I…I know! You don't have to treat me like a child." - Melody
Melody's face turns bright red, and she pushes my hand away, pouting out her cheek as she crosses her arms.
"Right, right. Thank you, Melody, for worrying about me." - Ian
"Of course. You worry about everyone, so you need someone to worry about you. Hurry up down." - Melody
Turning away from me, she walks down the stairs. I follow after her and she leads me around HavenFall. She shows me the slow construction of the water wheel, with old man Hus at the forefront. Lime had taken over the role of forging bronze equipment, with Martelo and Rycka as her assistants. Martelo and Rycka also started making equipment from the monster parts, trying their best without any help to impress old man Hus and to show what they have learned.
Noah and Howard informed me about the encampments, repeating most of what Melody has told me. Robin had created an archer-only corp with the girls as the leaders and the goblin, human and demi-human archers under their command. They were busy practicing across the river, aiming for wooden dummies.
Following the formation of archers, Stellar and Gewari created a small group of assassins. With the help of The Moon's Ghost mask, they were able to scout further away from HavenFall while still remaining hidden. Their main task during the week was to find encampments as well as any resources that could be used by HavenFall and ancient ruins.
At the moment, they have found encampments that Howard raided and the ancient ruins which they found were opened by Nina. I gave the ancient ruins to her in the hopes that she would increase her stats, which miraculously did. She gained a total of 15 Intelligence and 5 Agility as well as obtained a star hairpin which increases Intelligence by 2.

Nina had been talking to Solar and Stellar, doing her best to learn the elven language as well knowledge of magic. Lynn has become Nina's assistant, and both of them are constantly learning more about magic with each passing day, as they compare elven magic and the magic in the book.
They found out that the method of magic using the book was that it took their MP and constructed the magic using the words in the book. However, other people could not see the text in the book, only the ones bound to the book can see it. Solar had instructed them to create a copy to the best of their ability on clay, and told them the language in the book was a forgotten language called Lost.
Elven magic uses words as a medium to cast magic, whereas their book uses the Lost language as a medium to cast magic, taking the MP of the user. After this discovery, Nina frantically researched the book to figure out the language and is still in the process.
Lucina and her own group of helpers now with the increase of population. Expanding her farm and growing more medicinal plants. The library had expanded as well, with a section primarily used for recording medicinal plants and their effects.
The training grounds had also expanded. More residents were going there to train and learn about combat, with a sparring session every day showcasing 1v1, 2v2 as well as group battles. Gobi brought back 5 other hobgoblins with him when we returned, boosting the overall power of HavenFall. 4 of the hobgoblins were warriors much like Gibing with the last hobgoblin was another archer like Gopopo. The new hobgoblin joined Gopopo as archers directly under Robin. They learned more about the trade from her, and in turn, helped instruct the new archers.
"And that's about everything." - Melody
"Thanks for showing me around, Melody." - Ian
"Any time, plus I had fun. I know you had fun too, with you sneaking glances at me." - Melody
"WHAT? I didn't-" - Ian
"I don't mind, you know." - Melody
With a wink, Melody runs off toward Lucina who had just exited the medicinal storage house. I was left with an open mouth as the game shuts down for the night, waking up with Rebecca laying next to me on the floor. She had her VR helmet off and was wearing a loose white singlet and pink shorts. I notice her eyelids slowly flutter open, and she rubs her eyes softly with her hand. With a yawn, she greets me as I turn away.
"Morning Ian." - Rebecca
"Oh, yeah. Morning. Why are you laying next to me and not on the bed?" - Ian
"I got attacked in the game and died. After waking up, I tried to go back to sleep but couldn't, so I lay next to you, and before I knew it I fell asleep. Something wrong? Did you see anything you shouldn't be seeing?" - Rebeca
"WHAT? No, I just got up." - Ian
"I know, I was just kidding but you know I don't mind." - Rebecca
"Just-Just get up. I'll make breakfast today." - Ian
I walk out of the room and into the bathroom, brushing my teeth and washing my face before heading to the kitchen. I fry some eggs and made some toast, finishing as Rebecca come out.
"I finished the Ikanda training today." - Ian
"Oh! That's good. What's the time on the curse?" - Rebecca
"From what I remember, around 2700 hours left." - Ian
"Wow… You lost a lot of time." - Rebecca
"Yea, compared to the first time I went into the Ikanda I think I lost like almost 2 months of time." - Ian
"Are you feeling okay?" - Rebecca
"Yea, I'm feeling better. No more trouble with the spider legs or the curse, and I'm more or less used to the spider legs being there. So, tell me what happened to you?" - Ian
"I died to a monster army from an encampment. We were moving through plains and in the distance, one of my NPCs saw a cloud of dust. Not sure what it was, we turned our backs to it and kept following the direction which should lead me to you. However, as the dust cloud came closer, we realize it was an army of monsters. Goblins, orcs, kobolds, wolves, giant rats, snakes, gnolls, and lizardmen, you name it.
It was a large army, easily 10 times the size of me and my NPCs. We fought as hard as we could be, ultimately we all died. I saw my NPCs die trying to save me and even with Danger Sense I wasn't able to do anything." - Rebecca
"An army of monsters…" - Ian
"I read up online and after Leaders die, they have a choice to become Travelers and are respawned in the same location, provided that the location is safe. If it isn't then I am moved a little further away." - Rebecca
"Are you going to keep moving towards HavenFall?" - Ian
"YEP! There isn't much else to do, plus why not. It sounds like fun over there, and I know you would protect me." - Rebecca
"Yea, of course. With you coming and eventually Evan, we can plan and manage the place more effectively. Since you are deciding to become a Traveler, then I would probably let you manage an area in HavenFall. How does that sound?" - Ian
"Sounds good! I just need to get there and then become acquainted with the people. I wonder how long it would take me to get there…" - Rebecca
"Evan has been traveling towards me for a long time and still hasn't reached me, but the monsters you are fighting against are similar to some that my NPCs are fighting against. Maybe we will meet soon?" - Ian
"Oh really? I do notice on the forums that people are finding each other by finding common enemies. However, isn't those enemies you are fighting common everywhere?" - Rebecca
"Uhh, maybe. I haven't seen giant rats, gnolls or lizardmen yet, but I have seen pythons near HavenFall, so I'm not 100% sure." - Ian
"Hmm… I'll ask Evan since he probably has seen the most monsters out of the both of us because he has been traveling for so long." - Rebecca
"Yep. Other than that, just rest up. I'm going to sleep after breakfast." - Ian
"Need me to hug you to sleep?" - Rebeca
"No! I'm fine." - Ian
"I was just kidding…" - Rebecca
