Tsuvola lays north of Veslin’s Empire. They have not been conquered by the empire mostly because the inhospitable climate and poor resources would make it of little interest to the Veslians (it would also be about as easy as conquering Russia, which as history has taught us, is not a very good idea), but they do trade occasionally. Tsuvolan furs are prized throughout the world, and they will also breed and sell t’akirou like Kazu for use either as mounts, or (in the case of the more common smaller breeds) bloodhounds. While the smaller breeds also live in and are bred by Tsuvola, t’akirou the size of Kazu are rare and found wild only in Tsuvola, whereas smaller t’akirou breeds can be found in mountainous areas throughout the world.
This past Saturday I finished another DS RPG. This one was called ‘The World Ends with You,’ and man, it was sick. And by ‘sick’ I mean amazingly awesome and completely messed up at the same time. It was very different from any game I’ve ever played. It takes place in a big city and has a pretty dark storyline with mind-blowing twists around every corner. And the battle system…! Very unique and immensely challenging. You can kinda cheat by setting it to ‘easy,’ which becomes ridiculously easy, or genuinely challenge yourself with ‘normal.’ Then if you’re feeling masochistic there’s ‘hard’ and if you’re some kind of superhuman you can tackle ‘ultimate.’ I think I’ve found a new game to add to my top 5 favourites! Too bad I can’t clear all of the post-game sidequests… some are just too hard. 😛
Not to be nosy or anything, what’s the story of your life up to this point? Hehehe, not quite what she asked, but may as well have been considering his reaction and general social discomfiture.
Is his social awkwardness a trait from you, Lee? You strike me as that completely awesome dork that nevertheless feels awkward in new social situations. I mean that with as much teasing affection as possible. (I’m an awkward dork too…)
Haha, well, yeah, I’m socially awkward in that I tend to say weird things (often just to see people’s reactions). I’m not awkward quite in the way Kira is (we have very different personalities) but yes, I’m often quiet but when I do open my mouth, something bizarre comes out. I think people just have a hard time telling when I’m being sarcastic (which I am a lot). And the geekiness often overwhelms people too… ‘OMG I just finished my national pokédex after working on it for seven years!’ *insert nerdy Urkel-like laugh*
That sounds about right for me, too. I can’t say I’m comfortable talking to people for the first time, and I’ve taken to acting quite silly most days to try to downplay my awkwardness. That doesn’t mean people won’t look at me like I’m a weirdo, but at least they’re usually laughing instead of just turning away with an eye roll.
Soon the humans will accept me as one of their own. …Ahem. Nothing to see here.
‘And the Geek shall inherit the earth…’ 😉
