SeeD MISSION: WINHILL INVESTIGATION

[wrnpcs]

Character(s): Winhill Mission SeeD Party (Commander Leonhart, Zelos, Shadow, Tom, Edge), Winhill civilians, a mysterious woman
Location: Wnihill
Rating: PG
Open/Closed/Finished: Closed
Summary: The Winhill Mission team is sent out to gather more information about a supposed Sorceress.



The Ragnarok had disembarked at 0800 hours that morning; while the trip from Winhill from Balamb wouldn't had taken more than a couple hours at tops, the relocation at Esthar added on several hours traveling time. Nonetheless, it was a rather smooth and speedy journey; the Ragnarok was known to be the fastest ship that technology could provide, seeing as it was a spaceship built by Esthar's scientists themselves.

The pilot, one of SeeD's finest, promptly lands outside of Winhill on an area just behind the rolling hills. Once satisfied with the landing job, he turns on the intercomm to make an announcement to the rest of the ship.

"Commander, we've landed! We'll be stationed out here until the end of the mission." A hiss can be heard, the sound of the boarding ramp being lowered down from the hangar. "Good luck on your mission, SeeD! We can be reached through the communicator should any problems arise."

And, with that, the mission begins.

'What do they know about 'normal'.

The villagers were mostly telling them information that was pertinent, but a bit unhelpful. Or uninteresting. No ominous black blobs? Not multiple appendages? It surely didn't sound like it.

Well, they'd just have to wait and see.

Although Tom disagreed with the elderly woman's statement, he still shot a sympathetic glance in her direction. Seemed that she was set in her ways - and for this world, magic was unusual - so he couldn't blame her too badly for thinking so. (Though part of him absentmindedly wondered what would happen if he transformed or even appeared in town as a werepanther--the reaction surely wouldn't have been the same.)

If they didn't have anything else to say, they might as well start on their mission... or well. Anything to get away from this crowd.

The group seemed rather pleased that none of the SeeDs had visibly rolled their eyes or dismissed their claims of witchcraft. The mayor, having listened to the elderly woman's account before, nodding before directing his attention back to the Commander.

"Most reports have seen her located in the woods, just over there." He painted to a direction in the east, where a dense forest could be seen not too far away. "Ah... I think you all can find your way on your own, yes? Being SeeD and all."

He nervously wrung his wrists then, obviously not keen on the idea of having to escort the group towards possible danger.

Edge just repeated mentally to himself that he shouldn't judge, despite the fact that if any of HIS people behaved like this the kingdom would consider them a disgrace. He glanced to the Commander -- the growing contempt he felt for the situation was not enough to send him haring off without orders yet.
