"That's the prompt, yes. Usually, when a mission is cleared, the first instinct is to vacate the area, right? Since the only thing that you have to do after clearing a mission is to turn it into one of the NPCs, you have no reason to be around the den. However, I would like to add that it is always a good idea to explore the area a bit more, because you might come across something that you missed before. Who knows, maybe you would find the queen and shut this place down for good, or maybe not? But the point is that it is always beneficial to be thorough and not leave any stones unturned."

As Enigma walked in further, he saw a series of spider eggs. Some were motionless and some were wiggling, showing signs of hatching shortly as they brimmed with life. It was fascinating to see how the eggs were in different stages of development. Enigma couldn't help but wonder about the process of spawning and how the spiders were able to reproduce so quickly.

"I guess this is how the respawn process works. As soon as we leave, days later, all of these eggs will hatch. But that's not the only thing that's interesting about these eggs," Enigma said as he looked around. Suddenly, he noticed a green egg that was different in color from the rest. It was smaller in size and seemed to be a little bit premature compared to the others.

"Premature, the hub when you focus on it doesn't acknowledge the egg as an enemy either. It's not red, it's a material," Enigma said as he examined the green egg. He couldn't help but wonder if this was the treasure that he had been searching for all along. Perhaps certain spider eggs were being used as a material instead of hatching? This was definitely worth investigating further.

"I guess this is the secret - you would either get the defected eggs as a material or if you're really lucky, an egg as a potential pet. Oh, and by the way, mats are used for the forge if you didn't know. You can combine different things to make an entirely new item," Enigma said as he continued to ponder the possibilities.

"The assumption that I had was that you had zero practical experience with the powers you command. In terms of how complicated a situation can be and how complex a mission can turn out, you'll end up stuck. But if you already ended up doing caravan escorts and things of that nature, you have a lot more experience than you originally let on."

Tommy felt like he had gone on long enough and to him, this was supposed to be a stress-free vacation where he lazied around and did nothing. He had been looking forward to basking in the sun and sipping on cocktails, but now that he was here, he couldn't help but think of the events that had led him to this point. Maybe he had been too quick to judge Dee-Dee's abilities. After all, she had managed to surprise him with her experience in caravan escorts. Perhaps there was more to her than he had initially thought.

"Alright Dee-De, I'm going to be off now," Tommy said, trying to hide the admiration in his voice. "Hopefully, you made the right decision with the choices that you made. If your big gamble is based on believing in the good of people, mine is to believe in the value of their interests." As he walked away, Tommy couldn't help but wonder if he had been too jaded about the world. Maybe he had been too focused on personal gain to see the good in people. He couldn't help but think that Dee-Dee's approach was more compassionate and that maybe, just maybe, her way was the right way.

It's not a contest to see who was right in the end, but Tommy was different from her. He believed that the motivations of this world did move on personal interest, and there were more selfish people than there are selfless people like Dee-dee. Maybe she will be spared betting burned by such people in the end? Or maybe her optimism will be her downfall. Only time will tell.

After a while, Tommy returned to the merchant. He knew of the small annotation of other e being some limits administered to each person that manages to purchase something from the merchant. However, there were still things that he wanted to buy, and with some time to mull over a few things, Tommy was ready to make his move. It was either that Tommy would buy the items, or someone else would end up buying the items and leave Tommy without the chance to enact what he wanted.

"Alright, open up."

Taking a look at the screen, Tommy smiled as soon as he saw that the things he wanted were still up for grabs.

"I'll take the upgrade forge card and the poison."


Regardless of whether it was the right choice, it was his choice to make.

Buying: Sinister Toxin - + An absolutely vile substance. You can apply is on up to three (3) weapons. This produces a new and random poisonous trait to that weapon.

+ A series of vouchers that can be used on an item to upgrade its abilities without need of the Forge. Can only be used once per item. Does not count as an item that’s used the Forge either.

When it came to den-preventing missions, Enigma always kept an eye out regarding it. It seemed as if it was common knowledge or developing knowledge in this world that the gathering of creatures in mass, regardless of type or species, increases the potential of a den being made. This was probably due to the fact that it made the area more attractive and suitable for the creatures to live and thrive in. With the creatures in question being spiders, Enigma wondered about an experiment that he could possibly do with Sebastian. He was curious about the possibility of using Sebastian's command over spiders to prevent the formation of dens. Perhaps there was some sort of secret requirement for Sebastian to take control of the den itself that Enigma was not aware of.

"At least it would be treated as a territory instead of a place of potential elimination if a player can manage it." He thought to himself. Enigma believed that if a player could manage to take control of the den, it would be better for the creatures and for the players. The den would be treated as a territory and not a place of potential elimination.

He liked Sebastian and trusted him, maybe this would be a conversation for the next time he met. Enigma realized that he needed to learn more about Sebastian's abilities and work with him to prevent the formation of dens.

"What's this noise? " Enigma heard some music playing in the background as he went to the mission area, with it being more clearly heard as he continued. He was invisible at the time, and with the shoes that Enigma was wearing, not even the sound or appearance of his footsteps would show. Standing a few feet away from the male with the guitar, Enigma observed them and wondered just how new of a player they were. He came across new players from time to time, and one of the ways that he liked to keep up with the times is to know of anything useful in regards to a person that he can relay for a fee. Of course, people will be more cautious than usual, so he considered that as well. Enigma was always on the lookout for new information and opportunities to make some extra money.

"Hey, are you trying to clear this den as well?" Enigma said this while being five feet away from Cyrus. He was curious about Cyrus and wondered if he had any useful information that he could share with him.

Tommy read the beginners guide that Dee-Dee wrote, carefully considering the detail of the information she provided. He found her guide to be well-written and informative, but he couldn't help but feel a sense of concern for her safety. While he appreciated her openness and willingness to help others, he thought that perhaps she was being too forthcoming with her personal information.

"Why broadcast where you are?" Tommy asked. "A fake nickname and limiting replies to the blog if you check it periodically is more than enough. I don't necessarily believe in the good in people too much. You never know what nefarious plans they might have. Your safety should be a top priority."

Tommy understood the appeal of wanting to be known and appreciated for one's work, but he also knew the importance of being cautious and protecting one's privacy. Being incognito had its benefits, and he felt that Dee-Dee should be as hands-off as possible with her blog. He suggested that she reconsider how much personal information she was sharing and urged her to take steps to ensure her safety.

In the end, Tommy believed that Dee-Dee's guide had the potential to help many people, but he also knew that it was essential for her to take care of herself first and foremost. He hoped that she would take his advice to heart and make the necessary adjustments to her blog to protect her privacy and personal safety.

"So let me get this straight," Tommy said, leaning in with interest. "Your name is Dee-Dee and you have a creature with you called a Waddle-Dee? That's fascinating. I can only imagine the kind of bond you two must share."

Tommy was intrigued. "I've always been fascinated by the power of confidence. But I also believe that there are hidden links between certain things in this world, even if they're not immediately obvious. Perhaps Waddle-Dee was born from your imagination, or maybe it's a creature that's common to your class. Either way, it's clear that you have a special connection."

The food was good as well, with Tommy finishing the last few bites of his salad in silence before speaking again.

"As a young entrepreneur, I understand the importance of making connections and building relationships. Who knows, maybe we can work together in the future."

If she pulls a secondary class involving cooking, it would be golden if it had a variety of recovery options as well as a bonus option attached to it that wasn't just healing. Tommy didn't want something that only healed, the versatility of recovery items is what he searched for.

"I look forward to it. Building relationships with people like you is key to success in this world. And speaking of success, I've been thinking a lot about my future. Risking my life for no profit isn't as lucrative as I once thought. I've been exploring other options, like connecting with people who have shops linked to their classes that generate a lot of new-age income points. Getting in good with those kinds of individuals could be a smart move."

Tommy walked into the forge with his mask off, feeling a little dishonest but excited about what he could create with the items he had managed to obtain. He was hoping to convince the man to offer him a discount on the forge access and an additional slot, if possible. Tommy knew that time was of the essence and he was willing to do whatever it took to get his way.

"Good day! I'm here to acquire your services," Tommy said, putting on his best charming smile and trying to be as courteous as possible. "I heard that you have forge access as well as an additional slot available. Is it possible for me to use them today?"

Tommy explained that he had the points to pay for the services but asked if he could catch a break just this once. He explained that points had replaced currency and his rent was due, but he believed that the items he had would change his life. He even went so far as to suggest that the man would be the one to change his life by helping him today. Tommy hoped that his words would be enough to convince the man to offer him a discount.

He laid out the three items he had brought with him to show the man what he was capable of creating: the dragon bones, the clay, and the little creature item. "I need to survive," he said earnestly. "Will you please help me?"

Tommy waited anxiously for the man's response. He knew that his request might be a long shot, but he was willing to try anything to get the help he needed.
