City of Beginnings

Considered the home city of the game, as every player knows this place extremely well. It was probably their go-to safe place when they first started playing. And with the system reboot the hackers caused, it's where they all return to at Lvl 1 after months of hard work. The City of Beginnings takes up 25% of floor one, establishing its dominance as the largest safe place of the floor. Stone paved roads cut through the series of inns and businesses, and all of them empty out at the edge of the city on one end, and at the center plaza on the other. The city is well lit, creating a beacon around the first tower even during the virtual night period. To the north of the plaza is the first tower, an intimidating cylinder made up of a dull, impenetrable steel matter. A stone structure is built up around its base. This is one of the four headquarters of the Paelion Guild, made up of shamans, faeries, moroi, and sirens. This guild dominates the City of Beginnings, but they still have to follow the safe place rule even when members of the Jules Guild are in the city.

Finally, after who knows how long, the monk made it back to the city, body and mind in tact. Good ol' City of Beginnings. The number one starter zone for any newbie player, which is now the hub for about at least half of the new "residents" of FAO. How long they will stay on this floor, the world will never know; That is definitely up to the players, the strongest ones at least... They all have to step up and defeat the floor bosses. Its all so simple, in theory. However, with conflicting interests, lack of trust in the world, and just plain lack of overall strength, the task is definitely easier said than done. Zel isn't the type to unite people together either. He has always had sort of a background role in life, never taking much of a spotlight. Attention is something he could and would like to do without, especially now that the game is his reality.

As he reached one of the plazas in the giant city, he took a break at a bench, sitting down in a rather relaxed position. This was his time of rest for the time being, almost like the calm before the storm. He settled comfortably, taking up most of the bench. If someone was daring or bold enough to sit next to him, then he would move to make room... Probably. For now, all he needed was to sit down, and recuperate in the safety of the giant city. The male looked around him to see more than a few distressed faces still, probably because for one, their personas were wiped away by the hackers, and two, because they were trapped inside of a video game. If he was weak willed or less knowledgeable than he was at the moment, even Zel might have gone into a panic mode like the rest of the community seemed to be in. However, an encouraging part about this was that there were people around that seemed calm about the whole situation, and made small talk as they walked around the city together. Sure, it was not anything productive so to speak, but at least they were not thrown into a panicky state where they can't even function properly...

Most of the conversations, from what he could hear, were about partying up, grinding in groups, and complaints about being level one. Sure, it was hard work to get back to where they were before, and as one who complained a s**t ton about it, Zel agreed. Silently. As the groups and couples passed by him, he laid on the bench, taking his time to relax and observe the others. The young man prayed that no one would actually ask him to join a party of some sort, or worse, interrupt a possible nap.

Speaking of parties, the male was beginning to remember as to why he rushed into the city in the first place. 'Paelion... The guild. I gotta get there soon. Maybe they'll have some sort of gift for me...' The shaman chuckled a bit, as he immediately dismissed the thought. 'Yeah right. Like that would happen..' The young man turned a bit, to face the back of the bench, effectively covering his face from any oncoming people. To most of the people that passed by, it would look as if the male was crying into the bench, regretting his life or something of equal depression and negative emotion. To some of the more observant people that passed the monk, they would immediately notice that he was just dozing off for the time being. Either way, the young man thought for sure that he would be left alone. 'I just want to nap for a bit... I'll go to the guild later.' With a clear plan in mind, the male put all of his efforts into sleeping on the bench, hoping to be undisturbed.

As the day went by, Zel's nap was a very good distraction from doing what he actually had to do. Well, techincally, the young man was not obligated to do anything that did not involve him getting up to the one hundredth floor and out the damn video game. Relaxing and slowly waiting was part of that. Almost like... Meditation! Monks needed that, right? Getting your body, mind and spirit was necessary to be a strong monk. Especially to be one with the elements? Oh boy, napping was definitely essential to Azazel's growth as a player in Fardor Avil Online...

The main street or path leading to the central plaza was very calm, and there was little chatter for some strange reason. So when players begin to RUN out of the Central plaza and tell each other to "Move faster! She's too fuc*ing crazy!" It piques a guy's interest. What in the world could you be scared of in a safe zone? You are supposed to be safe! Safest place in FAO, also known as the SAFE zone! The monk slowly rose up from his sleeping position, and watched as groups of people fast walked from the direction of the Central plaza, scared and panicked. Their facial expressions ranged from walking in on their parents, to seeing an evil apparition like say, Satan. Zel's brow rose as he leaned back on the bench, seeing as they all flocked together like sheep. 'In those apocalyptic movies and tv shows, they'd be the ones turned into zombies or just infected with whatever disease was spreading around. Dumbasses. The young man shook his head as he finally decided to get up and see what was going on. To be honest, nothing in this city could be life threatening or THAT bad. Maybe all the ones that high tailed out were bitches? Then again, he did run away from a whisp... However, that was for a good reason! He had no way to fight, and was about to die. Who wants to lose all their money and items? Not this guy.

'Welp. Might as well check it out.. I have nothing better to do anyway...' The young man thought, as he got up and stretched out his back and neck. The silver haired male put his hands behind his head once more, and began walking in a nonchalant manner toward the central plaza, unaware of the sort of crazy and inexplicable things he was about to see unfold.
