~~~(POV: Cera Adamo)~~~

~~~(Location: Flying, Kingdom of Avalon)~~~

~~~(Time: 8:10 AM)~~~

The first place on my map that's the closest is Borm City. According to the map, it's not large by any means, and it's a place that doesn't hold value to Avalon. It's a good place for a person like Kris Martim to hide.

I doubt that I'll find him the first place I search, but I might find a clue as to where he's at and what he's doing. It could help me find the man.

I've been flying since I got up this morning, and I'm about 20 minutes away from Brom City. 

"Flying on my own time and speed will make this trip easy. But where things are easy, other parts are difficult."

It's a saying my dad said his father used... I don't know much about our extended family... Not that it matters much anymore... They're all dead and gone, most likely. And even if they were alive, I don't see the point in knowing them.

My mother's family disowned her since they didn't approve of dad, and dad's family did the same thing. A double disownment, if you will...

Hailey got to meet our grandmother on our father's side once. Before I was born, but she was too young to remember it.

Speaking of my sister, she's been trying to get a hold of me just like she was trying to get a hold of Sally. Spamming me with messages, and hoping that I'll reply. I've decided to ignore her for now, and it's better she bothers me than Sally at the moment.

"There are people I need to talk to... But telling Mom and Dad what Hailey did seems like I'm a little kid again... On the other hand, maybe they can talk to Hailey. Cause Sally and I don't want to."

That could lead to its own set of problems, which are mom and dad treating Hailey like they did back on Earth, and that's the last thing I want for her. I don't want her to feel insecure, abandoned, and isolated from the family.

"I'll hold off on telling mom and dad until Hailey and Sally sort this out on their own."

Being a mediator between the two is something I might have to do, but I'm only going to do that when I don't have any more choices regarding their situation.

Kris Martim is the subject my mind should be on, and what I'll do when I meet him. I don't know what he looks like, and I don't know if he'll be hostile to me. He's powerful, and that's the only thing I know for certain. The possibility he's a God in disguise is still on the table too.

"I'm not strong enough to fight a God... I know I'm powerful compared to creatures and people on Gaia, but that window is steadily closing... The System is making everything stronger, and I need to keep up..."

I don't want the gap between me and the rest of the Players shortening that much.

Cause once the power gap closes, there will be Players that think they can take advantage of me and my status. My name alone carries weight, and being associated with me is a sure-fire way to a better life.

<br/>It makes me wonder how many people actually claim to know me and use my name to get what they want. I doubt many succeed, but there are probably a few who have gotten away with it.

All this talk about my reputation and name has got me thinking about The Church of Light and how things are going with them.

A Player has been selected as The Pope, and I've been hearing of power abuse. Ever since that day in Zenith, The Church of Light hasn't bothered me. That makes me wonder what the counterpart of The Church of Light is up to.

The Church of the Dark Ones doesn't like to make itself known, and it's really good at moving unseen. 

Even with my knowledge about the future, I don't know much about The Church of the Dark Ones. Only that they're well connected and in every government spanning Gaia.

"You never know how much is truly on your plate until you look down at it... There are many things I need to do, and I don't know where everything is going with The Old Gods..."

That's another problem I haven't been thinking about lately, and that is the issue regarding The Old Gods, and what they're going to be doing. There is an imminent war on the horizon, but no one knows when. I have a feeling the battleground will be Gaia.

~~~(POV: Christian Adamo)~~~

~~~(Location: City of Ofisir, Kingdom of Avalon)~~~

~~~(Time: 8:25 AM)~~~

This marks the end of catching up on all my tier-up quests, and I'm right where I need to be. Marcus told me he finished up everything yesterday, and I'm proud of him for being able to do this all on his own. 

Another person I'm proud of is Violet. She's still a couple of tier-up quests behind, but she's making great progress, and I plan to meet up with her soon. To help her on all her remaining quests.

But right now, I'm enjoying a drink with a good friend I've made in my travels. A dwarf by the name of Eleds. He's a good man, and he knows how to drink. Any opportunity we've gotten, we get passed out drunk.

It's been a real blast with him, and now we're about to start up that party right here and now with everyone else in this bar.

"I'm excited to meet your family, Chris! If you're so much fun, I can't imagine the type of family you have!!"

He's already chugging down alcohol and making this a better day than it already is. I'm following his lead and doing my best to keep up, but it's hard to keep pace with a dwarf when drinking.

"Yeah... I'm excited for you to meet them too... By the way, when will I meet your family?"

My words are already coming out slow, and while my question shouldn't be that hard to answer. It always is for Eled. He doesn't talk about his family much since they're so far away on the dwarven continent. He misses them greatly, and dwarves get homesick quickly.

He's helped me in a less direct way with my tier-up quests, like making weapons, armor, and such things. I really appreciate him being my friend, and I'm glad he sees me the same way.

"I'll tell you what! When I meet all the members of your family! I'll take you to see mine, my friend!!"

He takes another big gulp of alcohol and lets out a deep breath as a comical cloud exits his mouth.

​ ~~~(POV: Cera Adamo)~~~

~~~(Location: City of Borm, Kingdom of Avalon)~~~

~~~(Time: 8:33 AM)~~~

Since I'm within view of Borm City, I slow down and come to a gentle landing right outside a farm. I look to the fence line to see a stunned family of farmers. The husband has his son on his shoulders, and the wife is holding their daughter's hand.

They're frozen in place as the water from the plant water slowly drips out from the nozzle. 

"Mornin'... I hope your day will be a good one..."

That's the only thing I say before flipping my hood on my head and following the path to Borm. 

"That's going to come back to bite me... And it'll be soon..."

People are gossips. They can't help it. And those farmers are going to tell everyone they know about who they saw, which was me. It's not that big a deal in the end, but I'd have rather gone unnoticed. I didn't expect the family of that farm to be right at the property line.
