JD listened to Doce's logic about finding a town and nodded. he was surprised at Doce's sudden anger when she addressed him directly, though. Backing up a bit and holding up his hands in a 'I give up' fashion, he said, "Alright, alright! point taken, I will do my best to think of ways to use that to our advantage."<br/><br/>At Zavyr's question, JDizzle turned to him. noticing a bar above Kamek's head steadily increasing, he smiled. "Looks like it's recharging itself now that we're not fighting. I guess that's part of the game mechanics."<br/><br/>At Naminie's eagerness, Rukia decided to follow her, and when they were both far enough as to not be heard, she asked, "So why is it that you don't seem confident around the others, and yet you took on that Raditz guy<span style="font-style: italic">alone</span>? It just seems... very likely that had we not intervened, you would have lost all your health. Is there something bothering you?"<br/><br/>Meanwhile, back with the others, JD nodded at what Jack said. "We're in agreement then. we should head for the nearest town and get some gear with our Gold. And I have to admit, I am curious as to what the towns are like as well."<br/><br/>A beeping sound suddenly resounded as another message dialogue with the standard "View" or "Discard" buttons appearing. JD noticed they all had the message, so curiosity got the best of him. tapping the "View" button, a message appeared before him. it seemed to read itself in a female voice reminiscent of a computer.<br/><br/><span style="font-size: 120%; line-height: 116%;">-Towns are the Game's primary source of trade and shops, as well as unique quests that do not require a mission. they are known as 'Safe Checkpoint Zones' and can be revisited via fast travel once you have been to one. Fast travel is a skill you learn on your first town visit which allows a player to go directly to a fast travel point on the map that they have already visited. this can come in handy when health is low and you are a long distance from towns, so use it wisely as it takes an hour to recharge. Towns will have a blacksmith to create custom items, as well as a shop to buy pre-made gear. there are also Customization Plazas in which you can change your character according to personal preference. There is also a town "Duelist Building" in which you can gain experience by facing off against other players. Rules and regulations will be explained upon signing up for the events. Have a pleasant Gaming experience, and remember that when you die in game, you will be directly Logged Out and can come back after a recharge period of one hour. This information is presented by the GameMaster.-</span><br/><br/>JD took all this information in as it was presented. "Well that takes the fun out of discovering what's in a town, now doesn't it? Still, at least it lets us know what to expect." he looked over his map one more time. "Looks like the nearest town is south of us, and only a short ways away too! somewhere called 'Grazencrod'... interesting name."<br/><br/>Then he noticed Rukia and Naminie were already much farther ahead of the others. "Hey! Wait up you two!" he yelled.<br/><br/>After trekking on for about twenty minutes, they came upon a small glowing cube that had the word 'Grazencrod Entrance'. Rukia observed it for a moment then reached out and touched it, and disappeared from everyone else's view, seeming to get sucked inside the cube. JD laughed lightly. "Definitely an interesting way to save towns from being attacked!" he voiced. "Shall we?" and he touched the cube, finding that he was suddenly transported into the middle of a Plaza of an area resembling a<span style="font-style: italic">very</span>large and bustling modern city. "Whoa... I wasn't expecting that!" he remarked. "It's so huge! how will I find anything?" Seeing Rukia was just as amazed as him, he smiled. "At least I'm not alone."<br/><br/>When the others appeared, he noticed a ringing coming from his inventory. "Huh?" opening his inventory, he found two items he recognized as a map of the city and a small cube with the letters FTC on it. "Looks like the Fast Travel item is a cube... Well at least we have a way to navigate the town too. So," he turned to the other members of their little group. "Where should we go first?"
