Tess #1
The village of Paddyville had seen devastation in recent weeks. A pirate crew led by Walter ‘Longhorn’ Bison had taken up residence, slaughtering defiant villagers and forcing others to seek refuge in neighbouring settlements. A call to the World Navy had been sent out by The United Farms of Windia’s council, which had soon seen a successful yet vicious battle by Marine forces against the Longhorn Pirates.
Since that day, Paddyville had been under extensive repairs, though there was still some time until its rightful residents could fully return. A portion of those residents had been offered shelter in nearby Barleyham — a larger settlement a few miles south of Paddyville — and the temporary increase in population there had heralded more unusual news. Sightings, reported by those more cautious of pirates and other ne’er-do-wells, of a woman matching the rather notable description of a wanted criminal.
Bzzt… Bz– Bzzzzt! From within a small workshop at the edge of Barleyham’s central concentration, close to the base of one of the larger hills that broke Flat Farm’s usually gentle, sloping terrain, the sparks of innovation buzzed and crackled. Faraday Tess had managed to find a cooperative owner of property who had allowed her to use the workshop, itself no longer seeing much use outside of being a glorified tool shed, and thus she had gotten to work. For close to a week, she’d been hard at work.
“Alright… That’s that secured,” she said to herself, standing and stepping back, wiping her brow free of sweat with an available cloth as she observed with eyes — one red and one blue — the masterpiece before her. “What’s next, what’s next… Hm! I’ll need to test the transformer’s ability to handle the voltage in a live scenario,” the ‘Thundermonger’ reminded herself, “else there’ll be no point to any of this if it can’t handle a single windmill’s worth of energy!”
Fetching a wooden wheelbarrow from its resting place beside the workshop, the girl with purple hair and a shocking yellow streak carefully lifted her creation from the workbench and into the barrow. A strange device, composed mostly of metal, approximately one foot in height and breadth and one-and-a-half in length, she covered it and a toolkit with a tarp for the time being as she wheeled it out of the workshop and began to push it along the dirt road leading through the village…{Post Synposis:}
After completing most of her work on a device, Tess sets off through the village to perform a live test.
