i hate information brokers i thought to myself . no really how can someone charge so much for so much wrong info i swear if i make it back i am going to get a refund ducking under a powerful swipe  i just barely escape the sting of its blow as i hear the air rushing by my ears i didn't have a choice anymore time to pull out the big guns griping the 4 knives on my belt in my telekinetic grip i sent them rushing t wards my enemy while my two swords blocked blows left and right but my knives just hit the golems stone skin and snap like twigs great no wonder i got those daggers so cheap i never will go near that shady smith shop ever again if i can help it but a bit is hard thing to come by in this game and i don't see myself winning the lottery soon  but its not like it matters its kinda funny how fast your mind moves when your so close to death hu. after dodgeing another blow i turned and ran as fast as my legs could take me. soon after escaping the golem i decided to take a rest but then i heard a twig snap. i turned around not knowing what to expect thinking mabey the golem had followed me threw the forest but the sight that greeted me was far less welcoming than the golem i just escaped.sometimes i think discord himself is messing with me. staring me in the face was a pack of timber wolves and this game had a thing for realism so i had no doubt they where unfriendly but worse then that they were fast and impossible to kill unless you had something like a fire weapon you could knock them down hundreds of times but they just got right back up. this is the end for sure i close my eyes and wait for the pain of the timber wolves bites but that was the strange thing they never came instead i felt a strange warmth i opened my eyes and all around me where green flames i started looking for the source of this fire expecting to find some unholy monster glaring at me but to my surprise it was a pony he held out his hoof and said names fire heart what are you doing out in timber wolf woods without a fire weapon or at least a partner? did they die in a fight with the wolves?no. also how did you do that? sorry cant tell you trade secret. now that i got a closer look at him i saw that he was a purple unicorn with a spiked green mane and a green heart surround in flames was his cutie mark. i just shook my head saying no im a solo player as for this being the timber wolves forest i didn't even know they where here an info broker told me this as where i could find a goliath rock golem so i came out here expecting to fight only that and maybe some regular wolves or even a bear but the broker never said anything about the timber wolves .......... that jack flank i bet he knew all about the wolves but didn't tell me because he wanted more money when i see him again im going to beat the crap out of him. him and that crooked smith  at this part fire heart raised an eyebrow would this smith happen to be a blue earth pony that goes by the name iron will? actually yes that is his name how did you know? because he give all us other smiths a bad name selling broken daggers and flimsy armor that wouldn't even hold up to a gentle breeze let alone a golem strike speaking of which why where you hunting a golem in the first place those things are known for there high defense and  health so why would you go after one surly it wasn't the exp. no actually i was after earth essence ore....the look on his face was priceless  THE EARTH ESSENCE ORE after my hearing had recovered from his shockingly loud yell i said yes the EEO its said that the golem is made entirely of the ore so killing that one would give me enough for what i need and then some. the smith looked at me for a second and  said how did you plan to extract the ore. now it was my turn to be surprised i had no idea that you needed a Smith or a miner to extract the ore from the golems body i thought it was just an item drop. guess your lucky then. hu why? well if what you say is true then we have a reason to work together mr...mr.. sorry i never got your name. o its sharky ..... the sharky as in sharky the sword storm i cringed at that i always hated that nickname but somehow it spread like wildfire to everypony and it stuck then again being famous isn't all that bad maybe i can get him to give me a discount on his forge work never know. ok hold on i will get the rest of my group together and we can kill that golem  woe woe hold on there buddy how many people are you bringing just my six friends  hold on i need to set up the warp stone. you have a warp stone where did you buy it from i didn't by it i made it but that would mean you maxed out your smithing skill. just yesterday actually(let me explain unlike combat skills living skills upgrade as you use them so the more you practice the better you get) hay fire heart are the six in one of the main guilds? nope just a small guild of friends and family. well great how big is it lets see counting me twelve members o great some no name guild probably going to be good for nothing more than a distraction what are there levels at? Well whats your current level 5. their all level 3 all six of them. ok by the way what were you doing out here in the first place fire heart? i was hunting timber wolves according to our group alchemist there ashes can make a super healing potion and their Silva makes a paralysis poison strong enough to stop a full grown bare for 3 hours. and how did they find this out? they used it IRL before the game. wait they worked with BEARS! and dragons hydras and pretty much every woodland critter you can think of. even worked with an Ursa minor once  what did they do for a living? she was a vet sorta. she? well the odds leaned in that direction 75 % of equestria was female. how many members of this group are girls? well all of the the ponys joining us are girls but as of right now there are only two guys in the guild.great just great a bunch of giggling girls just what i needed at least i have fire heart so fire heart what did you do IRL? me i studied dragons. if my mouth could drop any harder i would have punched a hole in the ground this was a true badflank anypony who studies dragons has to have one of three things the need balls o steel fireproof clothing or a disregard for your own life or all three but once he finished setting the stone up i was in for one heck of a suprise
