~~~(Date: February 15th, 2297)~~~
~~~(Time: 3:15 PM)~~~
I backflip away from the Tree Dwelling Mountain Lion and try to create some space. Before I can get said space, my back hits a tree, and I'm nearly killed. My Health and Mana are nearly at zero, but the Tree Dwelling Mountain Lion is in the same boat as me. Even with my Mythical Title active, there are no debuffs put on the creature. Meaning it's not intimidated in the slightest.
In a desperate attempt, I try to slow down the beast with Dark Vines, and I succeed. This is the first time he hasn't immediately broken free. I use this split second of time to charge two Dark Bursts on both my index fingers and launch the Dark Rays of Blackness at the Tree Dwelling Mountain Lion. They connect, and it explodes in a shower of pixels.
In an exhausted state, I fall to my knees and take a breath. My eyes land on the screen floating in front of me, and it's showing what I've gained from the monster. I've got 35 EXP towards all my Combat Skills. Dark Vines, Devour, and Black Shield have all gone up by one level. My Player Level has gone up by 45 EXP. Raising my Health and Mana.
Talk about a heavy amount of EXP and progress, and that's thanks to the 75 percent EXP boost while I'm in here. While the fight was rewarding, it was extremely hard, and I only have 160 Health left of my entire Health Pool. Meaning these fights are hard as fuck. Tree Dwelling Mountain Lions are probably all over this place.
Fighting these guys every time they show up isn't practical, and I'll die. Having a level setback and losing Health and Mana corresponding to that level. I'm not going to have that happen any time soon. Not if it's in my control. You can be sure as shit about that. "I'll need time to rest and heal..." The sucky part about Restricted Zones is it takes longer to heal and regenerate Mana here.
They don't tell you right away, but you do find out the hard way. All Restricted Zones have this function, but some work differently than others. Here, it'd be in all locations inside the Restricted Zone. But other Restricted Zones might not abide by this. Certain areas may have a place to rest, or others might have specific sections that have this debuff.
The complex nature of these locations is chosen by The System running Libertas. Using the best possible method to make the game fun, but also challenging at the same time. I lean against a tree and let out a sigh. There are no immediate threats, but I should still keep my eyes open. Tesha isn't expecting me back soon, and I'm glad she isn't. This will take a while.

~~~(Date February 15th, 2297)~~~
~~~(Time: 3:36 PM)~~~
None of my contacts have been able to locate Lyatt at this time, and that's to be expected. He seemed like the type to keep to himself and stay that way. I'm not going to bother with looking for him at this point. Whatever he has that interests someone like Feroxes is not an objective right now. I have bigger fish to fry in my own life.
My guilds headquarters are moving shop, and we're getting out of Kedwein. This city has done everything for us, but many of the top guilds are settling close to the capital of Termal or in the capital of Termal. "How they can afford that already astounds me..." The math is above me, but you would need a lot of work to be done by many players.
Which is something the top guilds are capable of. I was thinking about doing that, but that would just mean more competition. We need a place we can grow our guild and our Players without worrying other guilds will interfere. Kedwein already has some strong guilds we can't compete with moving in. But I know of a pretty good place, and it's off the radar.
