Job Description:
Welcome to Project Oasis. I'm Knalla, head of the Magic Science division of the Magic Council. If your reading this, then you want to know just what Project Oasis is. Well, I'll tell you. Were bringing rain to the desert. With regular science, it would be impossible. However, were talking about magic here. Well, a massive magical object, to be precise. We have placed a gigantic water lacrima inside the clouds above the desert sands. It seemed to going pretty well, until there was a freak lightning storm that struck the lacrima and damaged it. I need you to go out there, via airship, and either help fix the damn thing or guard the researchers while they work. The sudden aspect of water seems to be bringing in some strange animals around the work site.

Enemies:
Weak: Wyning Gulls
These stark white creatures are very easy to see coming. They don't really do much except screech pretty loudly. This wouldn't be so bad if one or two showed up.. but when a flock of thirty do, they have the power to shake the rivets right out of metal. That's not very good on a sky-barge. So, key point. DON'T LET THEM GATHER ALL AT ONCE! - 1 A rank to bring down

Normal: Sky Slicers
These birds are pretty freakin' weird. We've never seen anything like them, to be honest. They are birds, that's for sure, but they have the body of a fish. However they fly and breath air. It's quite..confusing to say the least. Anyway, you need to keep these things away from the sky-barge. We use ballasts of air to keep the barg level in the sky, and the fins..wings..whatevers on these baby's are about as sharp as a razor wire. One wrong burst of air and the lacrima, and everyone on board will plummet to the desert floor below. That's bad, by the way. - These take 4 A ranks to bring down

Strong: Some..thing.
Okay, I REALLY don't know how to describe these things, other then ugly. Imagine a lizard with wings, that's not a dragon, but tries to act like one. It's massive, about the size of the barge, and can take a direct hit from B-Ranked lightning bolt and smirk. Good thing it doesn't come around often, or the researchers would have quit a long time ago.. We suspect this thing's weakness is it's wings. If you see it, aim for the wings. - 15 A rank hits if you go for the body, 5 A rank hits if you go for its wings

Boss: A strong flanked by two Sky Slicers

Reward:
Once the lacrima is fixed, your free to leave. If you only helped or guarded, you will only receive 20k jewels each. If you do both jobs, you will receive a total of 25k jewels each.

It was a rather average day for Gideon; this is to say that it started with a rather early morning. Awaking to the break of dawn, Gideon let out a slight yawn. Perhaps it was too early for this man to wake, well... this was not going to stop those who had decided to disobey the law. Those who decided to commit heinous deeds; those who would choose to use their magic for something other than the most noble of feats. This is what drove Gideon to his feet; this is what would cause him to wake so early every day. If he was not to do this, then who would? Many did not have the conviction to do this; many could not handle this simple task; it was something that disappointed Gideon, and troubled him deeply. It was with this trouble that he would begin his day; perhaps this is what caused him to go through such a lengthy process; the need to relieve his mind of these thoughts; the need to focus on a brighter idea.

It was this idea that brought Gideon to this point every day. Leaving his bed he would head toward the bathroom, he did need to freshen up. Sinking into the bath he began to bathe himself; cleanliness was the only thing next to holiness. It was as he finished his morning bathe that he would begin to consider what he wanted to do with his day; well, what specifically. Of course he would end up doing something to better the general public. He would do something that led to the greater good. The water began to run as he wet his toothbrush, another one of the daily necessities. Water still ran down his body as he stood there, simply brushing his teeth; if one were to look in the room it would seem as though he were some soldier; this, however, could not be further from the truth. Sure, he supported this government-for the moment-, but he was not necessarily aligned to its rulers; he simply agreed with the laws, and its interpretation of what is good.

It was with this that he would be forced to do his very best; he must prepare himself for anything that could be thrown his way; for anything that could cause harm to him or the place which he found himself in now; to protect the place he had found sanctuary in. It was with this that he would begin to dress himself. Seeing as he had no real plans for the day he simply threw on what he would usually wear. A pair of jeans, and a simple white shirt; sure, white was not the best of ideas- blood stains often ruined them-, but they looked amazing. He did like the combination it produced. "Well, where to begin today?" He chuckled, scratching the back of his head. Perhaps he would begin with a nice jog. It was with this thought that he would simply exit the inn in which he found himself; why jog in jeans one may ask. It was very simple. When in battle one cannot simply stop and change into shorts, now could they? They would not remove their armor! You must learn to adapt; to continue training; to be able to move in any situation.

It was with this that he would begin to move at a nice pace; a light jog to stretch the muscles, to avoid any unnecessary injury. It was still early, the sun still has not rose completely, and it was with this that he found himself being drawn to his new home; to the place in which he had decided to pledge loyalty. To the place that he thought he could find an ultimate goal; a place to make the world a better one. Saber Tooth; the place was filled with like minded people, all of which had plans to create a better home for all those on earthland. It had not been more then ten minutes before he chose to head back; he did not know why he had not done this sooner!

Packing his belongings into the place which he had them originally, he would pile it all onto his back. Strapping it all into place he continued his jog; he would simply dorm there, it would be easier this way. He did not need much, in all honesty. Well, that was his plan. Who knew if it was going to work? It was with this excitement that he would head to his home. It took no more than forty minutes to travel to his new home; bursting through the door, in a way that was very much unlike himself, he would be ready to go. "Well, where can I set up camp?" He asked, waiting for some sort of answer.

It was at this point that a man would run in behind him, simply ignoring his little entrance of sorts. He seemed outraged, sad, and worried; what could cause a man to have so many different emotions in a matter of moments; what was going on? It had not yet grabbed Gideons attention, but it would shortly. The man ran around, it was as though he was lost. Perhaps he had some matter that needed to be sorted; this is what Gideon had thought; he had no way to know the truth behind the man acting in such a radical way. It was with this confusion that he would allow the man to be; what could the problem be!?
