Grappling onto the cliff-side, you can hear your undertakers below. Your biceps strain, and you pray they don't have enough sense to look up. You sense them looking about, surveying your once small yet profitable fishing business. They shrug, seemingly disappointed, and walk back to continue looting with their compadres. A zephyr comes from the west and lets you know you can get down. You hit the mix of grass and dirt and return to the bush you had been at but five minutes ago. You grasp the handle of your sword. The blade glistens in the falling sun. Dusk will soon be upon you. You pick a handful of berries and stuff them in your pouch. Traversing the hill in which you had previously been clutching, you survey the land before you. The Syrus River flows in its majestic way, toward the east. Further on, you can make out the dull outline of Grainsport. That is where you will start anew. Little do you know, the world, Shilmista, that houses Grainsport and its neighbors has a dark underside, in which you will stumble upon in due time.

Shilmista: The Era of Rain Showers
By Byzantine Warrior @ Tsunami Studios

The story begins simple enough. You take up the role of a mild-mannered merchant who owns a small, yet profitable, fishing business on the Island of Clearwood. One day, bandits ransack your business; however, you are able to make it out without being detected. Your goal is to get the Grainsport and to become more of a handy-man, delivering packages, escorting people to various places. Your combat skills, however, do not go unnoticed, and you find yourself being called upon the military officials of different towns and cities and asked to go on daring adventures. You soon realize, though, that the most daring adventures are brewing right under your feet.

Screenshots can be found here.

It is not completed yet; however, I am looking for two people to test out the first few missions and to make sure things run smoothly. If you have any comments or criticism, they are welcome.

I finished early, so I've sent out the files. Thanks again!

PS: If you don't read in the e-mail, please do not post any reports here in the forums that'll give away, hint, or otherwise tell others about the gameplay. I'm being cautious because of the piracy of Cheezy's map. You may post in here that you hated an area or liked an area, but no stratigies or things of that nature. Thanks for your devotion, and happy testing!
