RYNAH NORAN

Rynah is one of Orchidias senior citizens. Word is that she's grown to be senile, forgetful and very nostalgic. Spending a lot of time in the kitchen Rynah rewards people who take her quests with cookies at the end. Rynah usually has a care giver around. Her children have been trying to convince her to move to a retirement home. Rynah and her son Mitya don't get a long because of this.

MITYA NORAN

Mitya's bar is across the street from Enil's. He has no particular reason for it, but he really hates Enil. Being very childish, he is easily antagonized by even Enil's kind words directed at him. Mitya enjoys killing time by going to his competition's bar and complaining about the beverages they serve. He can go on for hours when drunk, speaking of his childhood, his lovelife, talking on and on about really, nothing. Beyond this, he is very passionate about the well-being of his mother despite the fact that she doesn't seem to feel the same way - which aggravates him.

• Create a topic at Orchidia's Horizon Apartments.
• The usual stench of cat-piss will be masked by the comforting scent of baked cookies.
• Inevitably, you will find yourself following the fragrance till you reach a door that has been left open and find an old woman sitting inside.
• The woman will notice you and invite you into her home for a cup of tea. She will introduce herself as Rynah Noran.
• Once inside her home, she will share a long nostalgic story about how she raised her son Mitya. She will break into tears as she gets emotional and tells you repeatedly how close they were.
• She goes onto ask you to help her write him a letter, asking him not to send her to a retirement home.
• Fill the letter with anecdotes that the old woman shares and then go to Mitya's bar and deliver the letter.
• Mitya will read the letter immediately when you tell him that it is from his mother. He too will break into tears and then race to the apartments. Follow him.
• The mother and son will share a touching moment as they reconcile. Mitya will explain that he only wanted to send her to the retirement home because it is a much better environment than the dank apartments.
• Witness the care-filled discussion that ensues as they try to convince each other.
• Mitya will notice that you're still there, but his mother no longer needs your assistance, since he is with her. The bar owner will reward you for your help.
• Before you leave, Rynah will pack you her special, warm, freshly-baked cookies.
