<em>Okay Catherine, you can do this!</em>the young brunette said to herself as she held the virtual link helmet.  Taking a few deep breaths she put it on and waited for it to finish readying up.  As soon as it and her were ready, she stuttered "L-link start!"  and she was transported to the game.<br/><br/>When she reached the character maker, she set to work making a character much like herself.  In the end she decided to go for a tougher look, changing the eye color to brown, toning the body a bit, downing the breast size, and giving her a bit more stern of a face.<em>There, a new me for a new experience!</em>she thought to her self.  Finally entering the game she was transported into the starting town's main square.  She looked around in amazement at the beautiful setting and the huge amount of new people, mixed in with a couple of early start players of course.  After a minute she finally shook herself out of gawking at everything at moved on to find a place to buy equipment with her starting money.  She ended getting lost for several minutes before she was able to find a place that sold blacksmith goods.  She bought herself some beautiful looking medium, white-colored armor, lowering the price a bit and aiming to keep some agility by not buying some of the pieces.  She then went to buy a normal short sword and heater shield.  Finally satisfied with her character's looks and equipment she thought to herself,<em>There, now I'm ready, or, well, ready for what.... Oh yeah I should go find some money!</em>With that thought she then headed to the main gate, well, when she could find it anyway.
