Exploring and the Tavern in Lara

Morning Exploration & Avatar Scanning

  • Region Hopping: You spent the early morning briefly teleporting through over a dozen different regions, including Svarga, Laila, Snuggles, The Dominion, and Foedeland Pass (where you received the local rule cards).

  • Avatar Scanning: While visiting the SakuraTree region, you used a "Peek & Chic" HUD to scan and save the detailed outfit and avatar components of several other players (Rʜʏs Iʀᴏɴʙᴇᴀʀᴅ, Ħᴏɢᴀи Vᴀяɢᴀʟ, and HurGor).

  • Local Chatter: You quietly observed a local conversation where a dancer named Katherine was complaining about stingy tippers and trying to earn enough Linden to buy an Animation Override (AO).

Shopping & Wardrobe Updates

  • Body & Clothing Updates: You spent a significant portion of the day trying on, unpacking, and adjusting new avatar items. This included grabbing a LEGACY Athletic Meshbody, an "Actanon" mesh avatar, shorts from Noche, and various boots and clothing sets from RKS (including the Hadrian and Herleif packs).

  • Animation Override: You visited the Vista Animations store to obtain and set up a new "-VA-VISTA-MAX BENTO AO-V3", loading it with dozens of new animations.

A Brief Visit to Teletus

  • The Gate Encounter: In the afternoon, you teleported to the Isle of Teletus and received the local census and welcome materials. The gate guard, Takeshi, intercepted you and repeatedly asked for your name and Home Stone. After waiting quietly and growing impatient with the locked gates, you teleported back to the City of Lara without answering him.

Tavern Roleplay in Lara

  • Introductions: Back in the City of Lara, you walked down into the local tavern from your rented room. You were greeted by several locals, including Erik (the tavern keep), Devan, Pandora, Quinn (the smith), and Tane.

  • The "Sir Ale" Misunderstanding: When the tavern slave (Peregrine) asked what you wanted to drink, you replied "Ale." Pandora mistakenly thought "Ale" was your name, leading to a brief, humorous misunderstanding before you introduced yourself as GT, a traveler from the North.

  • Business Pitches: Pandora, fresh off a highly successful week of selling soap at a local fair, gave you a free sample of her famous lavender soap. She then playfully tried to offer you a loan with "favorable interest rates," which you politely declined.

  • Tavern Gossip: The group drank mead and ale while discussing the quietness of the city following the recent fair and Tane's lingering two-silver debt to a slaver named Ember. The evening wound down with Erik officially introducing you to his assistant, Marduk, as the guest staying in room one.
