It seems to me that this curse has only served to highlight those with the skills to survive in this place.

[missesthestars]

Or those that need protecting.

[thrillofthe]

True. Perhaps the deities have many motives for these curses.

[missesthestars]

I think that would be the safest assumption. I don't believe we've met, I'm Promise Nottinger, you are..?

[thrillofthe]

Hunter. It's a pleasure, Miss Nottinger.

[missesthestars]

Name and job description?

[thrillofthe]

When the work is available.

[missesthestars]

You'll find no lack of things to hunt here, although if you want payment for it, you'd best stick to the business of the Underground. They have the most use for... pest removal.

[thrillofthe]

Pest removal has little interest for me. There's no interest in it. I'd rather find work as a bravo and reserve hunting for the truly worthy game.

[missesthestars]

And what do you consider worthy game?

[thrillofthe]

Any creature or individual who can challenge my skill and abilities.

[missesthestars]

In other words, something that can fight back.

[thrillofthe]

Something worth fighting.
