Life is more than an Empty Bottle
Feb 28th, 2007 by SniperAngel
After the boss hunting schedule, I roamed around Prontera again to check some wares for my characters. My Window Shopper is my Priest, Angel Uriel and he always walk around Prontera whenever I have time. He is my hmm fifth character and was stuck at Lv75 because I decided to level his younger brother Montreal, which is now a Biochemist [prejudice defined, I know].
While looking for someone who will buy empty bottles at a decent rate, I saw this novice asking for zenny. She kept tailing me and in the end I gave her 50,000z just not to disturb me. She thanked me and walked away. Few hours later I found a blacksmith that buys empty bottles at 1,200z each which is fair enough. The deal was successfully completed. I’ve been saving zenny to buy decent equipment for my characters. Being a Beta Player up to now I still don’t have a Ghostring Armor because of my compulsiveness sometimes. But well I need that one.
While waiting for my friends in Prontera South Gate, my favorite hangout spot a female swordsman sat beside me. She was silent for a couple of minutes until she whispered me. “Can we talk?â€
“Of course, what is it about?†Then she relayed her story. She was Janette, 16yo and lives somewhere in Quezon City. Her problem is about her friends that do not play the game. They “outcasted†her from the group because she is rather tomboyish, playing games that guys usually play. I told her that, if they really are your friends they should accept who you are and what are you into. Its just a game, I mean there is more to life than an empty bottle.
“What does that mean?†Well, we humans are like empty bottles in Ragnarok Online. Their destiny depends on what you will fill your life with. You can be as helpful as a white potion or milk, or as destructive as a fire or acid bottle. This will entirely depend on your decisions in life. And on your way, you will find other white potions or acid bottles as you proceed in the real world. Some will be helpful, others may not.
She thanked me though I’m really hoping she understood what I meant.
