---------------------------------------------<br/>Jonathan<br/>08:05 pm<br/>Floor 50<br/>Vendor Area<br/>---------------------------------------------<br/><br/>Another long wind cut through the thick crowd of people, the Christmas chill dragging any remaining heat that he had beneath his body. Despite the many layers of leather and armor, plus his already high resistance skill Jonathan didn't feel as though the clothing was doing anything to keep the cold back! If he wasn't mistaken, it was getting worse as the minutes ticked by, illuminated by the large clock-tower in the distance. The mindless exploration of the city had slowly brought him into the vendor's area, the concentration of players being the highest here in preparation for whatever the event was that night. Nobody knew any details, but everyone wanted to be prepared for everything. "Excuse me" he repeated over and over, extending one hand out while trying to cut through the cluster of NPCs and players.<br/><br/>His heads-up-display suddenly blinked, a public message coming through from one of the players in the area. Another player, Skosha was selling some unique coats and gloves along with specialized themed equipment for the right price. Like clockwork another gust of cold air moved through the crowd, encouraging his action to find something more appropriate for the season. With a determined nod the handsome man found his way to where Skosha designated she would be to find the woman. He was taller, and was fairly easily able to pick out the woman in the crowd. As it turned out Jonathan had actually met her before, and dealt with the woman once before several floors below.<br/><br/>"Hey there" he said with his best smile, trying to keep his teeth from shattering when he found Skosha in the vendor square. "Uh... Jonathan" extending out his hand to greet her. They had met once before, coincidentally Jonathan hired her to find a PKer who had killed off a previous lower level comrade he made while still in the floor 20 areas.
