As the duo finally arrives in the good old Industrial Kingdom, they begin by walking around. Lucas had never been here but he'd heard of it. For the less technologically inclined Western Region, the Industrial City was like a preview of future things to come and he enjoyed looking at everything

"Gosalyn!"
She turned to see a local blacksmith waving at her. She smiled and waved back.
"Horst!" she said. "It's good to see you! How're the wife and kids?"
"Pregnant, and cranky about it," he answered with a laugh. "And the kids are growing like weeds!"
"They do that!" Gosalyn said with a laugh.
Horst chuckled. "That they do!" he agreed. "You in to make some new contraption that'll scare me out my wits?"
"Not this time!" Gosalyn said with a laugh. "Maybe next time!"
"I look forward to it!" he said with a laugh. And by all accounts, he meant it.
It went like this on several streets where she bumped into people. Inventors, alchemists, mages, blacksmiths--even a couple of scholars--they all knew her by name and all were genuinely happy to see her. And she them. This was one town where she didn't mind humans. | |

Lucas' eyes widen and his jaw practically drops unhinged. Gosalyn being sociable? How bizarre can one day get? In any case, he eventually got over it. He found himself fascinated by a pair of gauntlets sitting on an anvil in a blacksmith's workshop. He then left to find the girls. "So this is the Industrial Kingdom. It's pretty cool here. Bet there are a lot of bright people here. Good to see it doesn't stop the children from having fun either," he says, nodding to children running around and having fun in the streets behind them. | |

Gosalyn can't help but be in a great mood. Already, she had new ideas in her mind for inventions to try and make later. When there was time. She felt so good that even the thought of having to get on with this mission couldn't sour it.
"Well, I suggest we start looking into finding Hugo," Gosalyn said. "Though he must've come here recently if I haven't heard of him. Then again, Hugo's a pretty common name."
She turned to a local silversmith. "Excuse me," she said, "perchance you know where I might find a dwarf named Hugo?" | |

Lucas, of course, wanders off. While once again viewing the pair of gauntlets in the blacksmith's shop, he is surprised by the voice of a hardy man from behind. "Do ya like what you see there, lad?" Just then, a dwarf steps up from across the street and into the shop. "Made them m'self. A pair of gauntlets like these'll get you far on a field of battle." He has an accent and is dressed in traditional war garb.
"Oh yeah, I was just looking is all," Lucas says. "You wouldn't happen to know anyone named Hugo, would you?
"Darned if I don't. He's right in front of ya, lad."

When Gosalyn turned, she saw Lucas rounding a corner. "We've got work to do!" she growled. "What's he doing?"
She chased after him and found him gazing longingly at a pair of gauntlets. She smirked and shook her head. "Men."
It was then that a dwarf engaged him in conversation. She caught the last bits and her eyes widened. "Why is it idiots have all the luck...?" | |

Hugo glances up and sees Gosalyn while speaking with Lucas. A Draconian. While most of them were savage, this one was smart. He approaches her with a hardy chuckle. "You must be this famous Gosalyn I've heard so much about. Or infamous in some circles. Be that as it may, it's a pleasure to meet ya, lass," he says, extending his hand to her. | |

Gosalyn smiled and shook his hand heartily. "The pleasure is mine," she said. "Anyone who uses their talents to create is worthy in my book.
"And while I'd love to talk trade with you," she said ruefully, her words sincere, "I'm afraid we've come seeking your help. Does the name Celcius mean anything to you?" | |

"Hm? Celcius? Short girl, but still taller than me? Blue skin, dark blue hair? I'm afraid the lass doesn't ring any bells," Hugo jokes. "Bah, just the ramblings of an old veteran. Yes, I know Celcius. Sweet lass, that she is. Not bad in a fight either. Has quite a few family issues though. Oh, you're the lot that she sent to come and see me? Well, in that case, it's a real treat. Come inside and we'll talk about this Ice War business, shall we?"
Inside, the group has a sit down with Hugo based around the Ice War. "So, she told you to bring back weapons, 'ey?"

Gosalyn sipped her ale. "Yeah," she agreed, "that about sums it. This is good, by the way? Dwarven vintage, I assume. Aged..." she sipped again, "...30 years. Not bad, at all."

Hugo gives a hardy laugh. "Aye, lass. If ol' Geonitrus is good fer anythin', it's factories and ale," he says, downing a mug himself. "Now for business. Weapons. For you lot, that shouldn't be a problem for me myself. Celcius contacted me because I have a few powerful connections in the factories, bein' a blacksmith and all. Unfortunately, weapons for an entire kingdom is a tall order. I'd be able to do it but about two days ago, several factories stopped sendin' me back on my letters. Strangest thing too. They normally couldn't send 'em back fast enough!" | |

Gosalyn sighed. Just as she thought; one simple request was going to turn into a long string of circumstances having them run around like chickens with their head cut off. She pulled out her light blade.
"Well," Gosalyn began, "I'm fine with my own weapon."
She focused and the light blade came alive. She then released it.
"Cuts through just about anything and easily transportable," she explained, "so I'm good. But, if this mission is going to succeed, I imagine we're gonna have to find out what's going on with these factories, am I right?" | |

| [Attn: Open] Hugo chuckles inwardly. "The rest of the town is right about you, lass. You are quite the fun one. In that case, yes, we'll be going on to do that tomorrow. For now feel free to roam around town. I have a bit of work to do." He then stands up for what it's worth and walks back into the main room of his shack to get back to making weapons. "Well then, I guess we get to do whatever we want for the time being," Lucas says. He then pulls out his sword, now dull from intense battle and repeated use. Its edges are rusted from slashing through ice and its point is rounded. "I think I ought to be off and looking for a new weapon." He then gets up and walks off. - New Mechanic Activated: Free Roam:
Free Roam allows you to basically walk around in any kingdom or other location. If you wish to begin one of the quests, you merely place at the top of your post [Attn:(Insert Quest Name Here)]. This will automatically begin the quest and any and all NPC's in your party will join in for said quest. You may also Sandbox during this period and talk to random characters you make up on the fly for the sake of conversation and storytelling. You may only end Free Roam if you are not in the middle of a quest. When a quest stops, you may only stop if you are defeated as your characters will awaken in the In-Game-Infirmary. Some quests advance whether you lose or die. Only when all Players' characters die will the quest end. The NPC's do not count in this. To leave Free Roam, place [Attn:End Free Roam]. Alternately, complete all Red bolded quests. These will usually spawn story related events that eventually lead to the end of your current stay in a location. Also during certain quests and in certain locations, every other post of mine will incorporate a random number generator that basically decides if the party gets into a battle. When we get into a battle...we get into a battle, ya gotta fight. Mechanic fights will not ever involve fighting more than maybe 4-6 enemies at once. Non-Mechanic fights is basically sand boxing, do whatever you want.

Gosalyn looked at Lucas, then walked up and smacked him upside the head. Hard.
"You really must've given up intelligence points for that saintly virtue of yours!" she snapped, pointing to Hugo. "What do you think he does for a living?" | |

Lucas glances over his shoulder in time to duck being hit in the head. "Does it LOOK like he has time to make me a brand new weapon?"
"Actually, Lad," Hugo says, walking into the room. "I can take a break from my main project. It doesn't need to be turned in for about a week. I can make the lot of ya new weapons and upgrade the ones you've already got if you'll have me to."
"Oh, for real? Sweet. I've been thinking something different from a sword though. A bit more hands on."
"Doesn't get more 'Hands On', than a Buster Knuckle. I have one half finished, I just need a few components. What about you, Lass?" He says, looking to Gosalyn. | |

"As previously stated," Gosalyn said, holding up her hilt, "I already have a weapon. However, what did you have in mind for an upgrade?" | |

"There are quite a couple of things ol' Hugo's seen in action that may be able to benefit ya," Hugo says. He then picks up a sword he'd struck himself. "Of course, I'll be needing to pick up a few materials."
Lucas stands up and by the door. "Hm...in that case...we can probably help you get what you need if she's okay with it."

"All right then," Hugo says. "First I'll need a sheet of Quantium. Then if you wouldn't mind picking up an order of tools for me? That'll do. With that, I can really do you all some justice." | |

"Very well. Gosalyn, if ya don't mind goin' after the Quantium, it's apparently been held up at the factory on the eastern edge of the kingdom. I sent out that order over a week ago. Should have been here three days ago, I just never had the time to go on and pick her up. As for you , my order's placed at the local market on the opposite side of town. You'll know the shack when ya see it. If ya don't, ask for Cerelus. Just yell it in the middle of the square. She'll turn up," he says with a bellow.

Gosalyn had scrambled to the rooftops of the buildings and was leaping from rooftop to rooftop. It lessened the time she'd lose running through the traffic in the streets. Finally, she made it to a medium-sized factory on the Eastern side of town. It had spiraling towers around it and golden pipes that exhausted steam and smoke into the air. It had a pleasing purple and green coloring on the brick exterior and large windows. It looked almost abandoned, though.
She walked up to the front doors and looked around, seeing nothing. She shrugged, pushed the door open, and walked in. | |

Once inside, the door shuts behind Gosalyn and a rather eerie old woman walks out to the counter. "How may we of this fine factory be of service to you?" She is very gaunt, almost ghostly pale, and wears no make-up. Her eyes are large and hollow and she is very tall and boney. | |

The old woman looked eerie and the entire place was giving Gosalyn bad vibes. She shrugged; if there were enemies to fight, she'd handle it.
"Good day, madam," she said politely. "I'm here on behalf of Hugo to acquire some Quantium." | |
