Laundry Portals

Saw an odd little portal pop up one day, half behind the washing table next to the wall. I dont even want to mention what form I took upon entry into this other world.. but I do have this odd craving for an ear scratch.

Anyway, It took me a bit to get my bearings on just which world this one was when I thought I heard a familiar voice. There was this girl with purple hair in piggytails and big clear eyes purring at me! Kita! well, at least I was close to friends. :)

That was my intro to the world of Mabi. Which, as far as worlds I have seen up till now, isnt so bad. It's not quite as 'all encompassing' as rata's world, nor as 'pixeled' as the world of RS... and yet, it has many different things to do beyond the typical hack-n-slash of most places. Even it's sister world of MS is no real comparison...other then the lack of being able to jump. The only actual jumping I get to do here is the bouncing and darting about I do as I am attacking some monster.

Kita seemed to be the only one to really recognize me.. I'm not sure how she knew, but she sat right down, smiled, and gave me that needed ear scratch.

From my time thus far, I have gathered a bit of the girl's ongoing story... and since it is so much more interesting then my own place in the world, here it is. ...

She couldn't have been in the world for very long at all when she first picked up a lute and began to play it. There she stood, next to the general store, listening to the sweet tone of the lute.. still in newbie clothes and short dark hair.. That was about when she first met her future spouse, Tai. He showed up on the run, and without so much as an "are you new?" he loaded her down with music scrolls, laughed.. something about eating berries.. and was off again.

The two made fast buddys. Not too long after that, He asked her to marry him. They have been together since then. Through him, and beside him, she has met quite a number of people, many becoming good friends. She has attained paladin status recently, which is quite a feat considering her humble start.. and is working toward knowing....a bit about everything possible in this fun world. :D
