Candle's Corner

Lexa and I taking some modeling shots over in the Azim Steppe :) We almost gotten eaten by a morbol. 

Went out taking some glamour shots by the beach! It was such a beautiful day out, and the sunset was amazing! Just some wasting time until date night, which apparently involved running around the chain and handcuffed-filled dungeon of Halatali while dressed like we were going clubbing.

She caught my eye one fateful afternoon in Limsa Lominsa, a strikingly beautiful Miqo’te standing alone by the docks, her white hair gently swaying in the ocean breeze, looking ahead like in a dream. I couldn’t help myself but to walk up to her and ask her who she was, because in a crowded place like Limsa someone of her beauty sticking out is someone I really need to know.

I approached her slowly and in a calm, controlled voice, I yelped, “Hiiii I’m Candle so nice to meet you! You come here often!” and I bit my lip in embarrassment. She turned to me and let out a simple “hi”. I asked for her name and was met with a slow and unaware “Lexa”, blissfully unaware of her surroundings. I was....smitten, to say the least. She was wearing a red tube top and baseball hat and baggy pants, and she looked like she was going too or from some sort of raving danceathon. Not to be defeated, I attempted to woo her into conversation.

“I have this little friend here, you see. It’s an abroader otter. He likes to fish and he’s home here in Limsa! You may have him for a pet, he really likes pretty kitties!” I said, nervously. She turned her head and her eyes lit up at the little guy, and I felt I really made a connection! She accepted the gift and nodded to me. I had to keep this going. “So, Miss Lexa, Would you maybe like to hang out? Go see a show or an adventure or something?” I was nervously twitching so bad I may have accidentally hit her with my elbow. Hard. Right in the belly. She gave me a really dark sneer and had me aback, I may have blown it! Instead, she responds with “Come with me I need to kill something.” I was so excited! A woman after my own heart!

We explored the depths of the Tam Tara deepcroft. Quite a dismal place for a first date I admit but it was what she wanted to do so I obliged. I didn’t even wrap myself up in plastic as I would usually do in a place like that cause my mind wasn’t on it! I whipped out my peashooter to show of my mad pewpew skills and instead she got in there and just annihilated everything herself. To say she already stole my heart was an understatement. We got out safely, covered in grime and blood. I wiped off as much as I could and looked her in the eye and gave my most seductive grin possible with bug guts covering my face. “Did you enjoy it, Lexa? Would you like to hang out again?!” I nervously asked.

Here I am in the spooky yet lovely phantom city of Amaurot! What a breathtaking view. I know I will get lost getting around this place so hopefully the ghost/illusion whatever denizens can help me find my way around!

I immediately noticed quite the size difference between myself and the spook Ascians. I have to scream out the top of my lungs to get them to hear me, and even that doesn’t seem to work.

I realized that I cannot clonk them over the head unless I had an absurdly long staff which just isn’t practical to lug around. I got the brainstorm to fly up next to one in my magical flying chair of doom and mayhap slap him in the face a lil to get his attention. This did not seem to work.

I was getting frustrated in this city. I decided that patience may be the key to getting help around here so I placed my bed on the service counter, waiting in comfort. I woke up after having a terrible dream that I was in some sort of illusion based off an ancient Ascian city where giant masked people wandered around and didn’t give me directions, only to discover that the nightmare was real and I was staring some dead eyed giant weirdo in the face.

It was at this point I felt it was necessary to show my power to a group of ghost Ascians. That’ll show ‘em to ignore me! Apparently that had no effect and they continued babbling nonsense to one another.

My last ditch effort was to drag my fellow Black Rats kicking and screaming into the city so that we would have more brains working on the problem of navigation. Alas, we got too wrapped up in marveling at our awesomeness that nothing got accomplished.
