Written Combat - 238 words A mu. It was a godsdamned mu of all things - well, being fair it was a good pack of them but they had no right to be as feisty as they were. What the hell were these things feeding on to be this much of a challenge? Not that Veld was anywhere near as strong as he used to be, after the fire, but he was trying. It took a lot to get himself back into shape, he knew it would - the healers had warned him it would. But that didn’t make it easier to take the bitter sting of not being up to what he used to be capable of.
Veld shifted his weight, eyeing the little creatures as they crowded in on him. A pistol just wasn’t going to cut it, not at close range. Lucky for him, he had a Ice Crystal equipped. He hadn’t used it much, wasn’t really much for magic, but he knew how. Magic was all in your head and your power. Which… he really didn’t have much of, being honest, magic would never be his strength. But he knew enough. Enough to throw out the basest of spells, not a proper attack so much as a sheet of icing on the ground that made the mu’s slip and squeal, halting their advance.
Perfect. Veld’s lips curled in grim satisfaction and he pulled his pistol again. Time to finish them off.

He was getting better. That was… that was something, at least, to visibly see himself improving. Veld knew he would still have rough days – he would probably always have rough days, some worse than others – but today was better and that counted for a lot.
The mus had still been a challenge, going up against a whole group instead of just one, but he liked a good challenge. And he took four of them down fairly swiftly in a combination of bullet fire and magic, which was always a relief.
More than that, he was grateful to have the opportunity to harvest the parts because mus were pretty useful on that front. The meat was actually pretty good, for what little there was of it, and hides of anything always caught a nice price. The tail was prized both for its luxurious fur and probably because of the scent glands at its base – he wasn’t sure and didn’t really want to ask – and the fat was rich and multipurpose for uses, though mostly to melt down to an oil if he remembered right. And while he could use that, he could use the gil more. So this time again, he sold all the parts he had gathered and went home to get a hot bath to soak away the aches.

Always with the damned mu’s nests. Another family of them came after him and Veld did not have time for that level of nonsense. He took the time to take out three of them – one after another, pistol doing the work at range even though he was aware that he still had a switchblade available if he had a need. For now, it was enough to rely on his gun, though, and he wasn’t worried about it, not really, just… wanted to get them out of the way.
They were persistent little things, he’d give ‘em that; whether he liked it or not they were determined to stick around in the forest outside the city. And if they’d stay in the forest, maybe he wouldn’t mind. But coming in? Yeah, he minded. And he supposed he could have called on the guards but…
Well, old habits sure died hard, didn’t they? Casdema had become his home, and the moment it had started meaning home he had known that he would protect it. Maybe just from the shadows, maybe indirectly, maybe not the way the council wanted but… he would do his part, to keep his home safe.
Even from the insufferable little mus that kept throwing themselves at him. He kinda felt bad for the little guys, in a way. They were defending their home, too. But priority and power were his, and today… he walked away the victor.

Veld paused in his foraging when his hand touched something warm and smooth and hard. Not a rock, no, too smooth. He took a closer look, and made a sound of surprise. Whatever he'd been expecting to find, it had not been a chocobo egg. Best get it home...

The “mu problem” was getting old fast. That said, Veld wasn’t, no matter what the calendar said, and he was more than ready to keep dealing with it as often as he needed to. Besides, he could still take the harvest of monster parts - the hides if nothing else - and hawk them to House Garuda if necessary. The mus weren’t actually as bad this time, which was a lovely surprise. They still came at him en masse, that was still a problem - but that was always a problem so he didn’t let himself worry overmuch. More important than that, he had both a good sized dagger and his usual pistol on hand. When they were at range, he was happy to just shoot them - took down three of them no problem. But two got close, far too fast to shoot, and then it was down to the dagger because he was not dealing with that kind of mess. He was just happy to take them down, even if there was more immediate mess than there was from a single headshot taking them out. It worked. The important thing was always that it worked, that he took the creatures out. And yes, one of them escaped. But he had no doubt he’d find it again later. Monster Hunting = 90 EXP
