<br/>----------------------------------------<br/>Skosha<br/>8:00 PM<br/>Floor 50<br/>Algade Town Square<br/>----------------------------------------<br/><br/><br/><br/>Outside the window the snow just kept falling.  Skosha was not a fan of cold weather.  She sat inside a warm inn enjoying a glass of hot milk.  Was the Christmas event worth it?  She could have been relaxing on one of the floors with a beach.  Even the lava pits were a lot more enticing than Algade's frozen roads right about now.  Not only was it cold, but the streets were crowded and covered in snow.  She murmered to herself annoyed while she poked at a knot in the table.  The heavy sword leaned up against the table tended to ward off anyone who would normally approach her, her angry stares were doing the job right now.  The Diabolic Greatsword was a drop from a rare devil that surfaced in the lava pits.  It was a tough battle, but she managed to defeat him, due to her knowledge of the floor and minor exploit.  When she hit level 90, the sword would unlock new abilities, but she still had a ways to go.  The more she thought about it, the more she considered heading back to the pits to spend her Christmas killing fire devils.<br/><br/>Skosha wasn't always a grump with the holidays.  This year was supposed to be special.  Not only did she not get to visit with her family, but her boyfriend was dead.  It would have been the first year that they all spent the holidays together.  Skosha really wanted to try out a restaurant in town this year, but even if she had gotten out of the game, she would be alone on Christmas.  She tried to mask her depression with anger and to some, she just came off as a scrooge, but others could tell.  This holiday was going to be a tough one.<br/><br/>The Huntress idly sifted through her inventory to pass the time, not sure what she really wanted to do.  She continually ordered hot drinks as she finished them, ignoring the fact that she was no longer hungry.<em>Maybe I'll sell some of these items.  I don't ever use them anyway,</em>she thought sullenly.  She ordered one more hot milk and prepared herself to go outside.  Her original avatar had been short and cute, but the mirror overrode the settings.  Her real body was eye-catching.  She was tall, busty, and had long legs.  Her hair was much longer than anyone she had ever met, and her blue eyes made it clear that she was definitely a foreigner.  She had long ago acquired an outfit in game that improved her running speed.  It had no armor rating, and it showed off a lot of skin.  Despite having nearly maxed her sewing skill, she couldn't find a way to make her own outfit with the same boost.  And to make matters worse, she had gotten used to the higher speed, so switching to a different outfit threw off her timing.  She almost never equipped any other armor items because of it.  Luckily her resistance was maxed for her level, so standing in the cold was just bothersome, and wouldn't cause any status effects.<br/><br/>The white and gold dress almost blended in with the drifts of snow, and Skosha was just another face in the crowd.  She looked around to see where people were crowding around and moved in to check out the vending carts.  She sent out a public message letting people know she was selling gloves, hats, and overcoats for cheap, as well as full unique outfits.  Maybe some of the players waiting for the event would appreciate it.<br/>
