Requirements: None
Client:Mitya Noran: Mitya's bar is across the street from Enil's. He has no particular reason for it, but he really hates Enil. Being very childish, he is easily antagonized by even Enil's kind words directed at him. Mitya enjoys killing time by going to his competition's bar and complaining about the beverages they serve. He can go on for hours when drunk, speaking of his childhood, his lovelife, talking on and on about really, nothing. Beyond this, he is very passionate about the wellbeing of his mother despite the fact that she doesn't seem to feel the same way - which aggravates him.
Summary: Mitya's mother, Rynah, has seen better days. She is starting to lose it a little, and though she is just as sweet as she always has been, she has a tendency to forget things. While this might not seem like too big of a problem, but after the incident where she forgot about the cookies in the oven and nearly burnt down the house, Mitya has been sure to make sure there is always someone keeping tabs on her. The usual care-lady is gone for the day, and thus Mitya needs someone else to watch his mother.
Others:Rynah Noran: Rynah is one of Orchidias senior citizens. Word is that she's grown to be senile, forgetful and very nostalgic. Spending a lot of time in the kitchen Rynah rewards people who take her quests with cookies at the end. Rynah usually has a care giver around. Her children have been trying to convince her to move to a retirement home. Rynah and her son Mitya don't get a long because of this.
Objective: Watch Rynah, and keep her safe.
Extra Rewards:- Mana +10

- Mitya will greet you, a little hungover, and introduce you to his mother.
- He will then leave the two of you alone for the day.
- Rynah will not do much, she will do some knitting, some crossword puzzles, and occasionally reminisce about the past.
- Eventually, she will get the idea to bake some of her special cookies, which she assures you are incredibly delicious, as she has a secret ingredient.
- She will whip up the dough in record speed, and sprinkle what appear to be blue crystals into them before putting them in the oven.
- Be sure to remember to take them out of the oven while they are baking, because Rynah will not. Once they are out, Rynah will let you have one, and you feel energy surging through you, the secret ingredient was crushed mana crystals.
- Nothing else of note happens, and when Mitya arrives, he will give you your reward.
- Mana +10
Orchidia was just a wonderful experience for Ianthe. She found herself getting lost so much in her first few days that she stopped caring and purposely went out to get lost. She found plenty of foods and stores, the parks were gorgeous but her favorite thing about Orchidia was the Ox Bathhouse. When she wasn't out and about trying to take in all the sights she spent her time at the bathhouse, mostly during the night hours. She didn't care for the mixed section and often stayed with just the women who were a treat to be around. Even though Ianthe wanted so very much to explore more of Orchidia today she knew she had to start taking on some request and maybe get some information on the guild that resides here. If Ianthe decided she did want to check out the guild, it would be the first guild she ever visited so she was a little more than excited to do so.
The sun was setting, the day turning to night and the temperature dropping just a tad while cool breezes picked up around the area. This was Ianthe's fourth day in Orchidia and already she had found work. Now weather this work was going to be easy or not was another thing altogether. " Now let's see here, which door... Oh ok I see. " Directions in hand she found herself in Orchidia Apartments. It was a nice place, somewhere she would want to be rather than at a Inn. Walking up the the door she knocked a few times and then a few more before being greeted to a man who looked as if his eyes burned.
" So you are the one that's gonna watch my wonderful mother? Good. She is precious to me and all I have left take great care of her or else. "
Ianthe could only nod as she heard a twinge of a slur in the man's voice.
" The name's Mitya by the way, and this here is my sweet mum Rynah. She usually keeps herself busy, but watch her well.. Or you'll find she may go missing or worse, also she is forgetful keep that in mind. Anyway I'm gone, take care. "
Ianthe watched him off, locking the door behind the strange man.
Her task was simple when said out loud but she wouldn't underestimate the power of the elderly. Those folk who are looked over so much have quite a bit of wisdom, enough to outsmart her young mind. For the most part the apartment was quiet. It was a three bedroom, two bathroom with everything one could need to live comfortably and more. Ianthe, in order to have a better watch over the old woman, allowed herself to be entertained with her activities.
" Oh... A four letter word for Dairy.... Mmm. "
" MMMM Milk! "
" Oh hohoho aren't you the bright one. "
The crossword puzzles were pretty fun to do with Rynah. The old woman knew most of them right off the top of her head, but it was the simple ones that seem to escape her grasp. Ianthe was happy to help with those as she was always rewarded a sweet. These puzzles went on for only a hour or so before the old woman broke out some string and long sticks.
" Hey miss Rynah, what's that you are doin there? "
Ianthe was not afraid to admit that she did not know what those things were, and she was more than excited to learn. Rynah must of picked up on that and smiled at the confused girl.
" This is yarn and these are knitting needles deary. I will be doing some knitting but I'd be delighted to teach you. See you take this yarn here and then you pull this into a knot like so. Then of course you take your needles and wrap, twist, push the yarn through like so, pull, then repeat! Let's get you some yarn to practice with. " Rynah was so kind that Ianthe wished the woman was her own mother. Knitting was so nice, a relaxing activity for sure. Ianthe was taught to knit a simple scarf which was a lot harder than she thought. The action was simple enough but to put it practice was another story altogether. Looking over at the intricate designs that Rynah put Ianthe in a rut and the old woman must have saw this because a soft hand was placed on Ianthe's back, causing her to look up.
