So I went to the tower to have lunch with Eurytos. He made me some meatkabobs and I shared some Windurstian Tea with him. I asked if I could borrow his bow which then brought tears to his eyes. After sniffling a bit and regaining his composure, he started to talk about his sad story...
"A long long time ago, I was an aspiring ranger. For my birthday, my daddy gave me this new bow and told me to use it when I was of the appropriate level. I was quite happy because the bow was so powerful. When I went to visit my uncle in Beaucedine Glacier, I brought my bow with me to show it off to him and my cousins. However, some dark elvaan calling himself Eastern Shadow started calling me nasty names. I was starting to cry because he also kept whacking me with his pole.
After getting KO'd, he took the bow my daddy gave me and ran off. I was so sad. After getting a raise from a Light Elemental, I tried to chase after him. I even started pulling rocks from the ground and threw it at him. None of the other gigas even turned to help as they were busying feeding their tigers or protecting their pets from those annoying adventurers.
When they saw me throw rocks, I got even more stares and looks of pseudo-amazement. Some of them started to mimic what I was doing. They started throwing rocks at their enemies. It became a fad. Because none of us Gigas rangers can afford a bow and ammo (we can't even buy sweaters to warm us in the cold outdoor weather), we resorted to just throwing rocks =(
I never did catch that darn shady elvaan. I asked some adventurer friends to try and get it back from them, but I've never heard back from them. So all I can do now is keep throwing rocks until I get my bow back ; ;
And that's how us Gigas rangers have survived so long. It gives us a bit more help when these pesky adventurers attack us and try steal our socks. They can't even wear them! They should just farm and buy their own shoes!!!"
