<strong>Name:</strong>Auriok Edgewright<br/><br/><strong>Location:</strong>Marketplace, then Guild Hall<br/><br/><strong>Tagging:</strong>Shard, Sera and Open<br/><br/>Auriok bowed his head to the seemingly old Wyverian merchant as he was handed a pouch filled with ten herbs, costing him about 200 zenny. Auriok always made sure that he had herbs and blue mushrooms on him, even if he was laden with other healing items. He recalled his mentor's words when he first started to learn hunting:<em>"It is the foolish hunter who falls first when he cannot remember even the easiest of ingredients to make one of the most important tools to his trade."</em>He remember of his mentor telling him when he first got into crafting to make new things, referring to potions.<br/><br/>Adding them to his backpack, Auriok continued on through the city, amazed at the sights before him. He came from a simple village, Jumbo Village to be precise, where the largest building was the Chieftains home but this...Auriok held out his hands as he simply stood in place and circled where he was to get a look at all the buildings that surrounded him. "This is amazing." he whispered to himself, aware that he was making himself look silly in front of others. But it didn't matter to him.<br/><br/>The reason this was all surprising for Auriok was that he was a new hunter who had never been to the city before. Oh he heard stories from his mentor of Tarminia city and of the various fortifications made by the guild to handle large wyverns (like the Lao-Shun-Lung) but never had the young man himself beheld such sights....that was until today. Coming there at the request of his master to further his training, armed with a simple iron gunlance and white velociprey armor, Auriok made the long trip and he had to say, it was well worth it.<br/><br/>When first arriving he had asked for directions from one of the citizens of the city where he could find a merchant and where he could go to find quests. With the first task complete he now headed to the cities Guild Hall, catching what sights he could along the way.<br/><br/>As he drew closer he could hear the faint sound of music. This was a good sign, as he was told to follow the music by the person he got directions from, and continued till he found the source of the music. Admittedly he felt a little intimidated as he stood outside the Guild Hall, this being all new to him and all, but eventually he buckled down and stepped through, surprised when every face didn't turn to stare at him (and those that did quickly turned away) and he breathed a sigh of relief. New to this kind of scene Auriok didn't quite know what to do, so he approached the first open looking table and moved to one of the open seats not occupied by someone. "This seat taken?" he asked of the man (Shard) and woman (Sera) sitting there.
