The Daemon was still in Baska Town, away from the guild she had recently become a member of. Nuala needed some time away from Oak; the town was as busy as ever and perhaps it was a good thing, but now that she was more or less back in business, the woman decided that it couldn’t hurt to get some training done in solitude. Nuala had been slacking off over the past few years, mostly because her gloomy mood had gotten the best of her – but she planned on changing as much now.

Nuala was in Baska town, another village in the north that was much smaller than Oak and even though many travellers passed through the streets on a frequent basis – she assumed this was due to the good amount of work that could be found here – the surrounding woods and mountains were mostly free of other humans. The perfect place for her to be, really.

Her plan was simple: to train in solitude for a while. Nuala had always been a lone wolf who worked alone and even though she had been doing some quests and missions with guild members and friends here and there, she still preferred to work alone after all. It made things easier, quicker and she liked efficiency. She liked being quick and she wanted things done her way. Of course having a second person around to have her back in times of need was always a good thing, but Nuala didn’t really rely on other people’s fire power all that much. Really, she could do just fine herself. In the end, it was really about the way you went about things, and being more of a stealthy assassin anyways kind of proved her point. Also, Nuala didn’t like sharing rewards. She needed the money always, and that’s why she preferred to work alone. Whenever there was a chance to go for a bonus, she would usually take it.

But not in the way you would think! As Nuala walked down the beaten path, she made sure that there was no one following her and no one was around. Quests sometimes gave a little more money if you were willing to do something risky, but Nuala didn’t work that way. She wasn’t, by any means a coward, simply careful. The Rune Knights had returned to Fiore and it was all the more reason for the thief to be careful and not take any unnecessary risks. A bounty was never worth the extra few jewels it came with, and the cost of having a target really wasn’t worth it in her opinion. The biggest problem were the Rune Knights of course, but Nuala was good on that matter: no matter how much more famous she got, she kept a clean slate on the outside and there wasn’t really anything they could accuse her of.

The woods were quiet and it was afternoon by now. Nuala preferred the night time to meditate, but there was still a while until the moon would rise. She was hoping for a full moon and after checking the moon calendar, she verified that that would be the case tonight. The other thing she was hoping for was a cloudless sky so she could actually see the moon light. Nuala enjoyed these quiet moments to herself where she contemplated her entire life and usually, the woman came out better than before.

In a way, those types of moments always helped her find a better way to go about things and complete quests etc. more efficiently. In the end, she had to work hard to keep up with everyone in Eternal Nightmare and the last thing the daemon wanted was to be a burden to everyone else. She continued down into the woods and looked around.

It didn’t seem as though many people made it all the way in here, other than maybe some hunters from the village. It was far into autumn now and deer and rabbits were sparse meat. But the village seemed to be doing fine nonetheless, since the travelers brought in enough money and the citizens were able to buy food from merchants that were also traveling through town as well. Nuala eventually found a good spot that she deemed fit for what she had planned. It was on a forest clearing, there was a little lake nearby and a giant rock for her to sit in front of. It would keep her back protected from any approaching danger and she wouldn’t have any need to keep an extra eye open for what was happening behind her. She unpacked some of the stuff she had bought: some wine, bread with meat and some cake and began eating.

Nuala would absolutely hate for her meditation session to be interrupted because her stomach was killing her and even though it wasn’t much, the daemon did need some food after all. The meal was simple, but delicious and she was rather happy with it. Nuala had always been a simple girl, not asking for too much and that hadn’t changed over the years. She would probably always be like that, even if one day she came upon a lot of wealth. For now, she put her belongings away and began stretching. It was cold, but she could hardly feel it, her immortal shell always keeping her body temperature at a comfortable level: it was one of the many benefits of being a daemon, really. She didn’t have to worry about the cold too much as a Voidling either, but if she could pick then Nuala definitely preferred the hot desert sun above Savannah.

Yuno
The memory of home made her almost sad for a moment, so she shook herself out of it. After Nuala had completed her stretching exercise and warmed up her stiff limbs a bit more, she took a seat on the ground in front of the giant rock in a comfortable position with her legs crossed. The daemon placed her hands in her lap, gently above one another, took a deep breath and closed her eyes. Her heartbeat slowed down eventually, and the rushing in her ears came to a quiet. The world around her stilled down and her breathing evened out, and once Nuala felt entirely at peace she disconnected from her surroundings and allowed herself to submerge fully into the meditation. It was freeing and relaxing and the daemon stayed still like this for many hours, way into the night when the full moon had fully risen. When she opened her eyes again, she did so slowly and with care.

Having finished her meditation, Nuala definitely felt much better. So much so that the daemon decided to continue doing this for a few more days before returning to Oak to take up more work. Baska was really the perfect place for something like that. The daemon returned to the inn where she had rented a room for the night and decided to have a full night’s rest. The next day she spent working and looking for jobs to do during the day hours and once the evening came around she would disappear into the woods and focus on herself a bit: Nuala made this daily meditation a habit and it really helped her mind clear up and for her to gain some newfound focus. At the end of the week, the daemon felt much better and also more...productive? It was hard to describe really, but she couldn’t deny that it worked for her.

After one week of meditating at night and taking jobs during the day Nuala decided that she had enough of Baska. Still in the north, the daemon planned on not travelling too far and instead returning to Oak Town, where her guild was. Odin had advised her during their meeting at Samhain that she would do good in exploring the guild and the woman decided to do just that. Explore the guild building and all of its little nooks and cracks and then familiarize herself with Oak Town. It was a city that, in a way, she had a lot of memories at and surely would make many new ones at. Nuala cleared out her room, went down the stairs and paid her bill at the inn. Then she headed out to the stalls where her horse was waiting for her and got ready for the long ride back to Oak Town. It wasn’t really that long, maybe a day, but long enough for the Daemon.
