168 hours in a week, with 18 hours spent working.

That leaves 150 hours. 6 hours are spent sleeping everyday, so that leaves 108 hours, give or take.

From that 108 hours, about another 6 are spent travelling, and 20 hours outdoors.

That would leave an impressive 82 hours a week, no?

Convert that back into days, and that would be a little longer than three WHOLE days. Imagine what you could do in 3 whole days.

Well, Don does.

He plays the different characters set in a mythical land of Rune Midgard, bound in a brawl between the forces of angels and demons trying to reign supremacy. All knowing that should evil hold absolute power, the destruction of the land would begin.

Yes, NINE characters in these 82 hours.

- - -

And they await their death in this incessant brawl...

...For Ragnarok approaches.

Until then, lest the victor is known, none shall be enlightened...

... So aid us now, young warrior. Would you aid us in our quest towards Deliverance?

- - -

Don started off with his character having only a knife in her hand and a cotton shirt on her back.

He fought his way through the monster-infested lands, killing anything and everything he could get his weapon in. Pink slimes, caterpillars, butterflies, hornets, snakes...

A tune of victory was a heard as the character hit a new growth in experience, allowing her to gain new abilities and weild stronger equipment. At level 10, she could now advance into her first job, which would boost her powers greatly. Now a novice, the only skill she had was to "Play Dead". This useful skill allows you to fake your death, prompting the mosnter you were fighting to leave you alone. Whilst useful, this skill pales in comparison to the other new abilities which one would learn having a more advanced job.

This server being a private one, Don was spared the need of going through the job quest which he has already completed at least five times before in other servers.

- - -

"Which job would you like to be in?"

Strength and integrity would bode you well in the journey of becoming a swordswoman, but be forewarned, the journey is arduous and would need much preparation.

Agility and stealth? Your passion will soon arrive in being a thief. Scorn will follow your footsteps, and your only shelter lies in the shadows.

Mystics tell of a young woman who would one day master the art of conjuring the very essences of earth, fire and water. Magicians start out defenceless, but adapt quickly to their environment, summoning the inner strength in them to manipulate their surroundings and create... Magic.

Let faith guide you in your quest for acolyte-hood. Your true calling may lie with God after all. Your skills create, not destroy. That, and there are an awful lot of undeads all over the place now...

- - -

Meh.

Don chose the swordswoman, because sword-wielding girls are hawt.

Bash, magnum break! Endure!

... And so, hundreds if not thousands of monsters were killed as Dawny chopped and sliced her way to knighthood. Her powers will be amplified three-fold as she would be able to use abilities relating to one of the knights' strongest weapons, the spear.

Starting out running away from snakes and over-grown wild boars, Dawny was now able to take on minotaurs and gryffins. Her avian steed by her bridle, she stabbed countless animated soils and various mini-bosses to gain strength and experience. Slowly but surely, she has undoubtedly joined the fight between good and evil.

Of course, Dawny took the path of the light.

Because it's cooler.

- - -

Brandish Spear! Pierce! Bowling Bash!

The demon Dullahan cowered into his now-cracked armour as Dawn pierces through its defences, her holy-water-tipped oridecon spear tip searing into the tormented soul of the creature, its moan echo-ing through the deadly silence of Niflheim field.

"Yeah! Level 94!" Don cheered, as he just attained a new level on his knightess. She would be just a bit stronger now, with a higher damage achieved with each pierce.

There has to be preparation soon, for once the attainment of Level 99 comes the path of reincairnation. This path will lead Dawny towards transcedence, and soon she will become one of the strongest in the brawl to aid her angelic peers, with her newfound abilities and strengths.

Also, she would get to kick some MAJOR ass.

She would have to go through this INSANE test of loyalty and prove her perserverance to Valhalla and the gods.

One of the tasks include collecting various ietms through the course of your training.

It is not as easy as it seems to get those. At least ten of them are hard-to-get items because they're dropped by high level monsters. And such monsters are rare, too. One such instance would be the five matchsticks. Five seems to be a reasonable amount, no?

Dropped by only the monster Chepet, this matchstick can only be obtained once every hour, for that particular monster spawns only once every hour. Taking that the hunting time is negligible... It would take Don five hours to obtain all five matchsticks. He could always buy all five for a million zennies, but that woul be such a waste.

So then, off to hunting beasts, undeads, and demons.

Oh, and if Dawny finally completes the item list?

She would have to take the final test...

... To face Fenrir, guardian of the underworld.
He's twice as large, and thrice as strong. Oh, and he can summon minions to aid him.

...Challenging, no?
