Second Assignment

[beseriousannie]

After a few days and this place is still rather confusing, but, there's not much I can do about that. At least some of the most basic needs are available, I was starting to fear I would have to fight monsters continuously to be able to gain anything. Survival is still looking like a difficult concept though....Oh yes, I was wondering who was in

I was not aware there were several libraries in use in the city.

As for the personified landmasses, perhaps they are the spirit of the people? I've seen stranger things.

[beseriousannie]

I was told there are two, I have spoken with one who runs the public one.

That is one explanation. I think perhaps it might be easier to accept it rather than dwell on it too much.

[voice]

[pagesniffer]

And the other?

There are greater things to worry about, unless their squabbles manage to escalate into something that involves more than a boulevard and their own hides.

[voice]

[beseriousannie]

I haven't spoken with them yet, if there is one.

You're right, there are. Even if I find there method of handing things irritating. It really has nothing to do with me, and I shouldn't get involved.

[voice]

[pagesniffer]

From whom did you hear about these?

That seems to be the wisest course of action. You have not run into any problems on Lander?

A Professor Hershel Layton.

I haven't been out much since I took cover. I'm afraid I'm not very good with the kinds of monsters they have here.

[voice]

[pagesniffer]

What is the frequency?

There seems to be no shortage of variety, at least. What are you used to?

Re: [voice]

[beseriousannie]

puzzledprof I think it was.

Well, I'm not particularly used to dealing with monsters personally in general. But I would say that the kind I could most easily deal with back home were rather soft and squishy. It's a little embarrassing to admit, since Puni are rather weak.

[voice]

[pagesniffer]

I see. [he's going back to check Layton's posts now] Thank you.

[he's actually not that used to personally dealing with them either lmfao] Your position at home did not take you into the field often, I take it?

[voice]

[beseriousannie]

You're welcome.

No... not particularly. Though as a committee member I was required to make occasional patrols around the island to make sure things were safe, general combat was handled by the knights.

[voice]

[pagesniffer]

A member of a committee...? Did it address public safety?

[voice]

[beseriousannie]

It was a development committee, there was a project to develop an island off the coast into a resort to attract tourism. We were responsible for the safety of the town, as well as organizing the contest that was used to attract alchemists into participating.

[voice]

[pagesniffer]

Commercial development? I take it alchemy is some form of profession there -- what was the purpose of bringing alchemists?

[voice]

[beseriousannie]

When it's finished it will become one, yes. Currently though it's a government project. Well, the alchemists were to build the resort attractions, as well as supply items that are needed for them to flourish. Alchemy is a very useful skill, you can create a lot of different things, they are... sort of like our countries engineers, I think. I'm not overly familiar with engineers, since only a few countries use them over alchemists. I wish I could explain it better, but I'm not an alchemist.

[voice]

[pagesniffer]

Judging by the principles of alchemy, in a society where it is accepted and practicable I can imagine the uses -- engineers and magicians are much more common in my world.

[voice]

[beseriousannie]

That would make sense in a world where alchemy is not common. Every day I keep learning more and more about how my world can differ from others. It's been an interesting learning experience.
