Interesting

~Yuki~

I watched the stranger who had come in and talked to me. He looked like a battle wisened veteran of Eden. And all his armor was top notch. He sat at a different table and looked to be relaxing. I smiled to myself. It had been a long time since I had someone to talj to. That was when I made up my mind.

I stood up and walked over to his table. HHe warily watched me out of the corner of his eyes. "No need to worry. The town is a safe zone. I come in peace." He smiled a little. "Brave woman. Coming up to a stranger." I shrugsshrugged and sat down. "You looked like you could use a friendly face. Besides drinking is more fun when you have company. How bout I buy you a drink? My name is Yuki."

He smiled more genuinely. "That sounds mighty fine of you. They call me Sig." I hid my surprise. I had heard of Sig...Halvard Sigmund. He was ranked number 2 on the leader board. "So what brings you to Area 1?" He swirled his glass. "Repairs mostly. What about you?" I took a sip of my sake. "I like to gather information." He nodded. "So I heard. EVE." I looked him in the eyes. "That is the biggest news right now."

Sig took a drink. "Could be fake info. Could be real. Could be a trap. Could be our salvation. There really isn't a way to know now is there?" I nodded. "That is the only problem. Unfortunately it only has one solution." Sig leaned back and closed his eyes. "Someone has to beat the game. Do you think there is a party strong enough?" I smiled. "Maybe I intend to make one." Sig smiled. "I like you. Let me know when you find this 'group' I'd be glad to join. I'll send you a friend request." He downed his glass. "Now then, if you'll excuse me. I need to get a room." I nodded and wished him a goodnight.

I felt my hope rekindling. Maybe there is a way. Maybe I will get to see my son again.
