Miracle Overture IV: Great Ventures

Job:

A hero forged by hell, he has returned, but his body and mind forever altered by the crystal shard of magic and the events of the civil war and dungeon. A young man who came back from his travels to hell, then whom made a strife to be a hero but was warned of nothing but the likes of demons within war. It was hell from the beginning to end of the civil war and the dungeon that changed him. Torento Yanaihara, the oriental native, was a teenager when he first left out on his first adventure into the world. His grandpa's words before he died inspiring him to take to the world of magic to see what it has to offer. The warrior known by many epithets, some of the more common ones being the Storm Child. Smiling Swordsman, and Trently's spirit animal, a Bird or Tori (Japanese for Bird). He was a charismatic heroic teenager who by the end of the civil war and dungeon had become a young man, hero of a kind, and a demon from living the worst of hell. No, he was not evil, and he never did anything inherently bad during the war to other people but regretted his original reasons for supporting Gao Yuan Zu and his rebel campaign. Trently later as mentioned before, had decided to feign his loyalty to the rebel leader in the latter half of the civil war only to get an opportunity to conquer the rumored dungeon. He did not truly know what he was getting himself into when he first joined the rebellion. The teenage warrior only felt inclined to join at first cause his grandpa flimsily supported Gao Yuan Zu, not even entirely. However, none of that mattered anymore. What mattered now was the very future of the nation, and that is all Trently was really focused on, the future.

The sun rising, Trently was already awake, and he sat atop a rooftop eating an apple while he looked at a new day come upon the land. He got a good night's rest yesterday. His tunnel project complete, Trently were to open up the Qiangbi Underpass for all to use if they pay a small tax however of course. This tunnel was sure to bring in good money for the guild. Trently stationed a pair guild member here in the city to collect tax and another pair in the town the tunnel leads to collect tax, and together they were to oversee the mountain tunnel. To ensure that the debut of the Qiangbi Underpass is managed right and properly, Trently were to be there during the entire day of the opening. He would tell of his adventures at the grand opening and the making of the tunnel to advertise the guild and further gain attention of the city. The very next day after, he will do the same as well but in various public squares. Trently would plan charity work to help the city and another nearby city miles far from here that was hurt bad by the civil war. The young business man had lots of great plans waiting to be executed now that his guild was finding success.

Perched over upon the roof of an oriental styled tower, Trently stood up from where he had sat and stared onward at the tunnel a half a mile far from him. The stationed guild members were to begin to awake from their sleep and prepare for opening. Trently looked down below upon the streets becoming more and more occupied by the minutes that passed. The sun came out from where it was peeking, showering the city in light and illuminating its streets and shining through building windows. Trently had made a purchase the day before, buying a newly built tower near the tunnel from its owner. The small tower would be a city guild location and operations of city trades and mercenary work for Miracle. A new guild location set in the city, all that was left was to open and tax the completed tunnel, advertise to the public and make some public appearances, and seal and make trade deals with other traders.

A crowd of people gathered around the opening of the tunnel, with many interested in the prosperity it could bring and the far shorter and easier route to the east. There were lots of farmlands on the other side of the mountain range which can help the city dense western coast of the nation get food quicker without having to travel around the tall mountain range. What east of the mountain range had would benefit the western coasts, and vice versa, helping trade flow a little better in this region of the country. A great deal of press and spotlight on this tunnel would be had, helping Miracle further gain a name in the region. The western coasts of the Kou Empire were great to have began Miracle, as it meant more word overseas and to the rest of the country. Trently had still yet a large amount of work to do though if he wanted to really get Miracle out there to the world. With the cut of the ribbon on the tunnel opening, a roar of cheers would be heard aloud in the morning. Traders and anyone who happened to travel often to the east were waiting for the tunnel to open, and now as it was ready at last, they were ecstatic to start selling and buying more frequently with the east than ever before.

People with caravans would line up at the underpass entry to take the tunneled route through the mountain. Some just conversed about the new tunnel, and would go on about their day as usual. Trently would try to garner the attention of city folk in a nearby square where often travelers or adventurers told stories and tales. The new tunnel was a large and widespread conversation within the city square and surrounding areas that benefited from it. Trently, with some men from the guild would walk to the city square a little more than a quarter of a mile far from the tunnel itself and speak out to the city. In the city square atop a wooden podium, Trently stood with two of his men. He were to tell of the new tunnel and the more goods and quicker trade route it brought. Trently told of the hardships that led him to creating a tunnel and the guild who's purpose was to help the nation recover from its recent civil war. He briefly mentioned the dungeon, Gamigan, and the hell that it was but the few lessons it taught him. The young speaker made his voice heard aloud, and shared his ideologies to "never give up hope, and to hold a strong will" as he clenched his fist tightly. He brandished the bestowed sword he received from the dungeon in the air and invigorated the people to work hard and they too will be rewarded for their efforts. Trently spoke valiantly, and romancly. The next day, he were to do very same thing but told of other stories of his travels. Trently were to get the word out there that his guild, Miracle, would do its very best to help the nation recover and prosper again, tackling the major issues that plague the country.

The public events Trently orchestrated quickly helped him gain a name within the trading scene, allowing him to meet more traders. He would discuss potential trade deals with some people, but was uncontent with a fair quantity of the offers he received. It were very few trade proposals that Trently fancied very much. He would look for other deals and greatly consider the ones he received. Trently had lots of wood and metal to trade, and mercenaries, but not much else. He would want a trade deal that exchanged wood and metals for a plentiful of crops. Trently may be best going to the actual farmlands east of the city and talking to traders from there who may be trying rebuild or create new homes now that people will travel and immigrate more east and inland.

A tax set on the tunnel, and it appearing to be a success, Trently did not have much else to do in the city for now beside recruit and continue to push the mercenary side of the guild. He would not be too worried about that though and would do it some other time. Trently would board his carpet for the time being and look for a trade deal in the east where a lot of the farmlands lie, some ravaged by the civil war. The young man were to have more promise of finding the kinds of traders he wants there. His blue locks of hair rustled in the wind as he set out into the skies. The rookie trader was on a good path, one of promise. He got a lot done within the past couple weeks, making somewhat of a name for his guild fairly quickly. Trently would have to continue to make wise and smart decisions if he sought for his guild to prosper, and further expand.
