The Truths of Existence, (Roleplay/IC/Sign-Ins Only)

[Charmera]

Jason

Beetle unfolded his helmet, looking at Jade, "Are you following me? i seem to keep running into you, highly unlikely for it to be just random chance...if so, then stop." he turned to Aruvia, "So the Alvaranian is here, good. i don't need to hurry. it wont take me long now. He suddenly grabbed Aura by the head and gently lifted her up. Jason jumped forward putting his sword between Beetle and Aura, but Beetle seemed completely unphased by this. "Put her down if you wish to live." Jason warned. Beetle ignored him, inspecting Aura for a moment before dropping. Beetle then but lightly tapped Jason, and he was sent flying into a nearby building, and then straight into a tree, which made it snap and fall over. It hurt like hell, but Jason got back to his feet. "Oh, buddy, i don't know what the hell you are or why you have no music, but that right there, was a mistake." The man said nothing in response, only simply frowned, as if Jason was only a mere annoyance.....

Aura got up to her feet after being picked up. "That wasn't nice." She remarked.

Jade put herself between the two of them, her taller than avrage green body blocking sight. "You two, calm down. As much as you may be spoiling for a fight, Violets people have to live here." She said. Her arms folded. "Beetle, he was only trying to protect Aura. He did save her from Violet before." She spoke. Then turned to Jason. "Jason, that's just a thing Beetle does to strangers. He wasn't trying to hurt her or anything."

Elizabeth

Elizabeth finished off another oyster as the now empty shell clattered on the plate. She looked over to her group and the others in the room. Elizabeth noticed that Adwith wasn't eating. "If your afraid of the food being poisoned than don't cause I'm sure these books aren't stupid enough to eat food that they have poison. Plus I have a sixth sense when it comes to danger and so for it isn't going off do the food is safe." She explained, reaching out for another oyster.

"Probably for the best that I don't mention the times my sense were fooled." she thought putting sauce on her oyster. She turned to Tessy who was sitting next to her. "So how's the oyster Tess?" She asked, putting her left elbow on the table as she tilt her head to the side to rest on her raised open palm. "These oysters are new to me but they taste really good. Though I don't understand how you got sick from them?" Tessy questioned, making Elizabeth shrug as she muttered on about the ones she had on being both cheap and bad.

"But let's forget about that old mishap. I was wondering if your interest on the two of us going out for dinner when we have more free time on our hand?" Elizabeth said with a grin. Tessy gave Elizabeth a smile. "If your asking me out on a date than yes, I agree to go out with you someday, but only after we have more free time on our hand and after we save Cryssa." Both Tessy and Elizabeth turn to face Felix after he was finish with his oysters and let the shell clattered on the plate as he spoke.

After Felix was done speaking and hearing the news that the lavacelfvwas both promoted and was going to join them Elizaberh finally had a chance to speak. "As long as you keep your end of the no backstabbing deal than I will follow through with it." Elizabeth can feel the crone glaring at her. Hecate turn to face Felix as she spoke. "Be careful with this one Felix, she has a habit on manpulating both her enemies and her allies for whatever schemes she has." She warned, causing the occultist to sigh with annoyance. "Fine you got me there,I often get my mates involved with my schemes without telling them to much about them. But I never go as far as to willing stab them on the bloody back."

Before the crone can follow up with a reply Serena bitterly screamed out that Elizabeth was both
a child and an idiot, follow by the curse causing her to have a heart attack while having her hair set on fire. Tessy turn away from the sight as did Artmis and Hecate. Tessy looked towards Elizabeth. "I know you did the best you could but I think it could have gone better." She said sadly, Elizabeth sighed as she shrug. "I was always a piss poor motivational speaker so I'm not to hurt on my attempt failing." Though she did not like being called a child, if it wasn't for the fact Serena was already cursed Elizabeth would have cast her own curse at the immortal.

Once Fauna join into the conversation about her point of view in existence follow by Celestia saying that she doesn't care if Alzis would agree to the promise as she would force them to show her their secerts. Elizabeth turned to Celestia first. "If your going to kick Alzis ass than make sure to have that fight filmed so I can watch it whenever I want." She said with a chuckle, the Mage than turn to face the bard as Artemis creates a bowl of fruits for the bard.

"You may have a purpose but not everyone was born to fulfill a single purpose. Sure I can do magic but I'm no bard..." Elizabeth than looked away from Fauna as she muttered on she was very sure on her not being a bard. Remembering an event in which she was force to act as one and how terrible her singing skills were. She shook her head and looked at the bard once more.

"Let's just agree that our points of view on existence is neither wrong nor right cause right now having an argument on whether there is any meaning or purpose to everything has no importance to this meeting now. Besides why should I waste whatever precious seconds of my life debating about the reasons for existence when I can use every second I have on enjoying my sodding life to the fullest with my short life span." Elizabeth felt Tessy gently putting her hand on her shoulder.

As Kyne left the room Elizabethbstayed to finish off the oyster that had, after grabbing another she stared at it for a moment she gave it to Tessy. "I'm done for now." She than grab a few more and move to Adwith as she placed the oysters she had on his plate. "Going out for a light, if you hear Kyne complaining about the smoke just ignore it." She than gave them a smile. "I'm sure none of you would want me to smoke in here while you're all eating?" She than walked over to the door and open it, once she was outside Elizabeth turned to Felix and Teesy

"Before leave, Tess you the temporary leader for our little band cause neither the bard or string wants to be leader and Adwith looks like he is going to shit himself over there in fear. As for you Felix so long you don't stab me in the back I won't do the same. Just remember that for us finding Cryssa is more important than some magical general with a massive ego and power fantasy who likes to wank off to other people's pain." With those words she close the door.

Elizabeth walked for a bit and soon found Kyne tossing her knife reapeatly in the air and catching it. Elizabeth didn't say anything she took out her lighter and cigarette and began to smoke. She stayed quiet as she watch Kyne toss her knife in the air. "You ever thought on joining the circus? I'm sure yourvskills with knives will get you a nice job in there." She said making a small joke, as she lean on the wall.

Moon Sisters

Selene didn't say anything as she use her powers to make whatever pain Serena was feeling into pleasure while warming up her body. She knew that the curse would most likely attack her but it was in her nature to help people who were depressed and right now Serena looked like a sad child to Selene. She began to sing softly to the immortal, the language was one from a world were the Celtic culture was world wide.

Artemis looked at the group and with a smile asked. "You know if you guys are going to work with each other I think it's best if you talk a bit more about your selves? That way you can better trust each other." Hecate than turn to her sister. "I doubt that plan would work as some members here are less willing to share information about themselves." Artemis looked dejected on what Hecate told her.

Selene look up to where Tessy is. "So are you andcElizabeth a couple? How did you two meet and how is it like being with her." She than gave Tesdy a mechvious smile. "Did you two share any... initmate... moments with each other yet?" Selene can see Tessy blushing from the question follow by Artemis laughing at the boldness of Selene's question.

Selene than began to softly hum the song she was singing so she can hear Tessy's answer.

[Kaidou]

"

She turned to the Angel, pardon me, but may i have simply fruits and vegetables? I dont eat fish."

"No problem."

Upon Fauna's request, Felix stood up, before clearing one of the trays of oysters by causing it to disintegrate and disappear. At the same time, he conjured up a large bowl of vibrant red grapes, still attached to their dew-covered stalks and leaves, before passing the bowl to her.

"Mind the seeds", he said, smiling, as he resumed his seat.

Rotehund, upon hearing the news of his new deployment, expressed his shock in a cold, calculated manner. He elegantly stabbed his oyster fork into the table with minimal force, before facing the major-general.

"With all due respect", he said, "but I have no idea how this is going to work out, especially since…" Here, he flicked his head in Dennis' general direction.

"That will have to be figured out along the way, I suppose", said Hallurm, with little emotion in his voice. Straightening the pince-nez on his Roman nose, the Major-General continued, "Surely, you can't be scared of that little upstart?"

"Absolutely fucking infuriated would be a better way to put it."

"Sit down", said Hiccup, who sat next to him. "You should probably calm down a little bit."

Rotehund gritted his teeth, before clutching the table and slowly sinking back into his chair. "I only hope he doesn't force me to explode", he said to the Viking chief, in an almost inaudible voice.

"Perhaps we should all just… calm down?" asked Felix. "Why don't we introduce ourselves, like she (he glanced at Artemis here) said just now? If you want, I could… you know…"

Dimension 903

This box… what's in this box?

Dimension 903 was, like Dimension 888,815, a dimension that was made completely of a single, unchanging landscape. The only difference, however, was that 903 was a desert landscape, unlike the snowy plains of 888,815. It was in the desert, after all, that Adrian of the Tenshi was most comfortable in.

Here, he had chosen to go to investigate the strange black box that Felix Faustus' dark side had left behind upon its separation from the host. It was a dimension devoid of life, anyway, so anything that happened wouldn't kill anybody. Besides, he wasn't alone; Grand Conductor Wilhelmus of the World Orchestra was with him. Pyhädunkelheit was barely able to force Adrian to a draw; with two Tenshi, the outcome of any possible battle would be quite different.

"Do you think now would be a good time to open it?" Wilhelmus loosened his wing collars and his white bow tie.

"It's all the same anyway", came Adrian's throaty reply. He slipped his finger under the ledge in the lid of the box, before pulling it open.

Inside the box was a tiny red crystal, just sitting there innocuously. It shone brilliantly, with a crimson fire not unlike that of a diamond. It was clearly a raw gem, yet it had perfectly faceted faces and a bevel that would have otherwise suggested master craftsmanship.

"This thing is raw evil concentrated into a gemstone?" Wilhelmus was sceptical. "From what you told me about him, I would have expected it to give off a more wicked aura."

"Indeed it does."

That voice was unmistakeable. Not to Wilhelmus, but to Adrian. They both whirled around, only to face a large portal, from which stepped a maroon-coated man in a wide brimmed hat with a gigantic black mace for a hand.

"Klingsor", snarled Adrian, drawing his nodachi.

"So you are Wilhelmus, my successor?" Klingsor said to Wilhelmus, cocking his head to one side. He had noticed the Trident that Wilhelmus hung on his back with his Sam Browne belt. "It seems you may need to wield that weapon better; otherwise, you're gonna lose a few more prongs from that thing."

"What do you want here, Klingsor?"

"Oh, really now? I've come for that jewel that you're keeping in the box. You see, my current client runs a gigantic intergalactic market that sells and buys all sorts of rarities. Endangered species' body parts, WMDs, Devil Fruits… you name it.

"But that's not really the main issue 'ere. Word has reached his ears that there's a Thread of Existence that's been torn from the fabric; he wants that. I'm being paid to find it."

"First you betray us", spat Adrian, "and now you liaise with shady underworld bosses to traffic these things? What exactly are you playing at?"

"Oh, well… what can we do about it?"

At this moment, both Adrian and Wilhelmus pounced at Klingsor, wielding their respective Instruments.

They've got everything planned out. First, Adrian is going to lunge at me with his nodachi, and will try to distract me with his Suna Suna no Mi power. At the same time, Wilhelmus is going to try and attack me from the back. He may have some powers that I am unaware of, so I should probably keep my eye on him…

Here they come…

Dimension ???
????

Well, well, well. things are certainly getting very interesting here. The Tenshi are on the move, too.

Not to mention that Haikarakainen is beginning to turn against that fool Maju. Perhaps I could find a time to interject a little bit. I'm sure they'll both enjoy it very much. Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!

[Naval Monte]

Moon Sister

"A shame those two left right as we are about to introduce ourselves but I'm sure they will come back eventually... Hopefully." Artemis said, playing with her hair as Selene moved both herself along with Serena to the table.

"My name is Selene, my younger sister over there is Artemis and the older one is Hecate. We are often called by many named and titles, the Tripple Goddess being the most common title that we are called by. But we honestly prefer to be called the Moon Sisters." Selene stated, Hecate than spoke.

"We governor over many things from the cycle of life, to the boundaries of the spiritual and natural world's and even magic itself along with being guardians of the hotel." Artemis than looked to Fauna. "Just like you we too prefer to be one with nature than with sprawling metropolises and yes we do have connection to the Moon but we are not aliens from it." She said giggling.

Hecate looked over to Dennis. "One of our jobs with magic is to keep an eye out on mages who practice magic. However due to the size of existence, let alone the multiverse, there are times that we either miss moments in a mage's life or even mages that we miss entirely." The middle sister joined in.

"You have to understand that as guardians we have to ensure that the hotel is not threaten and sadly one of the recurring threats to the hotel have often been those who are related to magic Maju is just the latest of a long line mages that have become a threat to the hotel."

Artemis conjure a cup of tea and after drinking it spoke. "Normally with mages like Maju we would have dealt with them with no problem, sadly however this is not the case. This Maju is to peresient to just die, often any fights we have against him either end in a draw or we banish him into another universe that as no life, with some occasions of us throwing him into hell dimensions."

[Contamenesia]

Serena

Serena lost the will to argue or fight, She decided against eating. it wouldnt matter where it came from, any food she ate would be bad in some way.....Serena suddenly felr the affects of Selene's song, and panic grew in her eyes as she felt her curse begin to retalliate. A Bolt of lightning came from nowhwere and struck Serena upon the head, causing her to black out, the bolt then was amplified by the curse, given the energy equivalent of a large falling meteor and then lauched it towards Selene. though unknown to the common eye, it was not ordinary lightning, by chance, it was a from that sapped magic of any kind....

Fauna

"I wont agree to something that isnt true. but for your sake, i will postpone the topic for now..." she gave her a smile, and turned to eating her food.

Kyne

Upon hearing her words, Kyne caught the knive a final time, and in a fraction of a second, turned and threw the knife at Elizabeth, which snipped off a part of her hair and embedded imto the wall behind her. To others it might have looked like a narrow miss, but this was not the case. the blade, while it did no real harm to Elizabeth, actually landed exactly how she planned it to. it was a warning. "A Circus is for fools. Voodoo users like yourself are more fit for a thing like that." Kyne turned away, pulled out another knife and began to toss it in the air and catch it like she did before. She was quiet for a long moment before finally saying, "It's like everywhere we go there is Voodoo. Its disgusting...its evil touch seems to be everywhere. When my people learn of this, there will be a purging....But that is later. Right now, only Cyrssa is on my mind..."

Jason

Jason spat on the ground, a bit of blood was mixed with the spit. Jason was pissed, but he decided to trust Jade and sheathe his sword. "If does anything like that again, i kill him. i dont care how strong he is." Beetle remained quiet. It was a long moment before he finally asked, "" what are you four doing here? Only one of you are originally from this world. He turned to the Fairy. It was obvious he was expecting her to answer.

[Naval Monte]

Elizabeth

Elizabeth didn't show fear from that stunt, she has seen too much things from her world to be scared from a knife that was close to stabbing heron the head. "I rather not give her the satisfaction on seeing me scared. She's gonna have to work harder on scary I g the shire out of me." Elizabeth turned around and grabbed the knife, pulling it to get it off the wall.

After a few minutes she finally dislodged it from the wall, she examined the knife and found it was in great condition. Elizabeth let a grin form after Kyne told her that she belongs in the circus. "I use to be a stage magician for a while so you are close. If anything I learn stage magic tricks mainly cause they are useful in my line of work."

Elizabeth too stayed silent as she finish officer cigarette, she was still holding the knife that Kyne threw at her. Once Kyne spoke out on how magic is degusting and thatcher people will begin some sort of purge Elizabeth let out a loud groan. "Oh great yet another religious fanatic that wants to be a bloody crusader."

After rubbing her forehead she muttered some words before speaking to Kyne again. "I'm not going to say that magic is all sunshine and rainbows, it's bloody creepy, strange and disturbing at times. But the only thing evil about it are the tossers who use it for just to fulfill their power fantasy and perversion,making others into their own personal play things. Otherwise magic is about as evil as fire or electricity."

Elizabeth than threw the knife back at Kyne, it didn't land anywhere close to the hybrid and in fact it didn't even lodge it's self into the wall as it falls down to the floor after hitting the wall.
"Besides if you want proof that magic can be used for good than you should have met my mum. She was a witch but a nice one. She was a good healer, fixing both physical and mental wounds. She was willing to bless people who earn it with favorable fortune and was willing to help blokes who had problems with spirits even though dealing with spirits was not her strong suite."

Elizabeth let a small and sad looking smile form on her face. Her eyes looked down at the floor as Elizabeth looks back at the days spent with her mother. "If your wondering yes she was the first person to teach me magic, no she was my first official teacher on the art, otherwisecI was reading some of her notes on rituals and spells and was coping them while making up some on my own."

Elizabeth look back at Kyne. "I know what your going to say, my mother was terrible for allowing me to practice "Voodoo". But even she knew that if she tried to stop me from doing from practitioners it I will still find a way to do magic since I was doing it before she decided teach me the beginner's steps on it. Besides I was born with the ability to perform magic, so much that it acts as an exit sensory input for me."

[Contamenesia]

Kyne

Kyne shook her head. "Your comparison is flawed. Flame can be dowsed by water, lightning by stone. What Dowses Voodoo? only more Voodoo. Do you see how that is a problem? Voodoo is not a tool. it is an abomination. It infects the innocent and empowers the guilty to become destroyers and monsters. I've seen how you do your voodoo. you are no different. What your mother taught you is no different than the Voodoo Bard girl. You hide behind it's promises, convincing yourselves that you are in control, that it's purposes are pure. but it is a lie. Voodoo is only evil. Even the healing aspects are but temptations Voodoo uses to draw in the innocent, infecting them, spreading its corrupt and evil influence. There will come a time when this is corrected. When Voodoo is shown for the abomination it is. When Voodoo is purged from the face of existence. This will not create a perfect world. This will not eliminate all evil. But existence will be as it should be. Without the virus that is Voodoo. Without Voodoo, Existence will achieve a perfected balance between good and evil, and drastically reduce the chaos that is born and breeds from it."

Kyne leaned over and picked up the knife that Elizabeth tried to throw back, it disappeared somewhere underneath her coat.

"All this will happen, but not now. Our focus should only be of saving Cyrssa. It is not your fault you were born corrupted by Voodoo, so i hold you nor any of the others any ill-will. Let us move from this topic, it isn't something i want to discuss at the moment."

She was quiet for a moment. "We have to save Cyrssa. I must save her, for i can never repay my debt to her...." she said grimly....her expression that of deep sadness.

[Naval Monte]

Kyne

Kyne shook her head. "Your comparison is flawed. Flame can be dowsed by water, lightning by stone. What Dowses Voodoo? only more Voodoo. Do you see how that is a problem? Voodoo is not a tool. it is an abomination. It infects the innocent and empowers the guilty to become destroyers and monsters. I've seen how you do your voodoo. you are no different.

She was quiet for a moment. "We have to save Cyrssa. I must save her, for i can never repay my debt to her...." she said grimly....her expression that of deep sadness.

"Hate to break it to you but from my experience there is no grand balance of good and evil, if anything those two are nothing more but concepts that have meaning to us, not to existence." Elizabeth shook her head as she chuckle at the speech that Kyne gave her. "You may want magic gone but the fact it exist means that it has a purpose, well that is what the bard would say, as for me magic exist for the same reason we exist. It came to being for no other reason than to just exist."

Once Kyne express her wish to move the topic away from magic Elizabeth gladly agreed, in a way Elizabeth can understand her distrust and hatred towards magic but in Elizabeth's experience magic is too much of a mixed blessing for her to fully hate nor love it. Elizabeth was surprise to see Kyne's aura finally show her an actual color that corresponds with the hybrid's emotion.

"You may not trust whatever promises I say and you have good reasons not to, but I was honest when I told Saya that I would go down to the depths of hell itself to somehow find a way to save Cryssa. Mainly cause I've been there enough times for me to know my way around the place." She said, laughing a bit as if she just told a funny joke.

Elizabeth reach down to her pocket and took out another cigarette, instead of smoking it like she would Elizabeth walked over to Kyne while holding it. "Want a smoke? Cause it looks like you need one. So you owe a debt to the elf huh? I take it that Tak was involved huh?" Elizabeth smirk. "I still haven't forgotten that you wanted Tak to join in the poker game. You obviously wanted him to do something and now that you mention on repaying Cryssa it was really easy to guess you wanted Tak to help you on repaying this debt that you owe."

[Charmera]

Jason

Jason spat on the ground, a bit of blood was mixed with the spit. Jason was pissed, but he decided to trust Jade and sheathe his sword. "If does anything like that again, i kill him. i dont care how strong he is." Beetle remained quiet. It was a long moment before he finally asked, "" what are you four doing here? Only one of you are originally from this world. He turned to the Fairy. It was obvious he was expecting her to answer.

“I was not aware traveling between worlds was a problem with you lot.” Remarked the fairy, folding her arms. “We are merely trying to get this being home to his own world, and while two of us have the ability to go from world to world, none of us know where his world is, since none of us have been to his world.”

“Though, I could have gotten him there in a second had he actually done what he had agreed to do…” She muttered bitterly.

Aruvia frowned. “Why are you so curious? We don’t pretend to present a threat to your organisation, and if you were ordered to kill us we would have died already. So why ask questions when you have orders to complete...” She remarked. “What does any of this matter to you?”

[Generailia]

Adwith

Adwith's eyes were still upon the meal in front of him when the odd man who somehow caused the food to appear spoke. Yet the Shienaran only showed a ever so slight reaction as he attempted to listen to whatever he was saying, but such a thing sadly failed due to his current state which caused him to only hear bits and pieces of it when the doors suddenly opened. This of course caused the borderlander's eyes to practically shoot towards the door as his hand flew towards his sword's hilt. But after seeing that the being in front of them wasn't going to try to attack the mercenary's eyes glided back towards the food as his hand slowly fell from the blade's hilt to his side. The madman had of course listened to everything that was happening around both himself and the guardsman. Yet the long dead aes sedai had ignored the excuse as to why the excessively strong man before them departed simply because he didn't really care.

But one thing he didn't suspect was that the idiotic elf who seemed to be some sort of officer even though the titles they gave eachother was rather odd ordered the elf who he seemed to have promoted to follow them. This of course caused the voice to burst out laughing at such a thing simply because he viewed such a thing to be ridiculously idiotic. Such a thing had brought the Shienaran out of his trance like state..but he was sadly unable to fully regain his composure when the arrogant woman next to him began to speak. But the borderlander was able to thankfully hear a large portion of the things that Elizabeth told him. Yet the long dead aes sedai seemed to miss a large portion of it, but he had of course begun to calm down once the girl finished speaking. This of course caused him to be rather shocked when the mercenary both reached for and devoured one of the odd food items on the table.

Yet the taste was foreign and to be quite frank rather unpleasant..which caused the madman to practically scream. I told you not to eat the food soldier! Yet you ignored me like a fool and now your idiocy shall be the death of us both! Such a harsh response had both shocked and infuriated the guardsman as he growled. I honestly do not know what it flaming is myself..but I do not think that this stranger could poison such food as easily as he summoned it. It is far to late to spit the bloody thing out anyway. The sudden response had shocked the long dead aes sedai, but not for long as the voice silently retreated back into whatever depths of his mind that it calls home while he continued to eat the food in front of him in relative silence. This of course caused the man to miss a large portion of the things that were going on around him, but he was finally able to return back to a somewhat normal state just as the arrogant woman took her leave. Which surprised the Shienaran but he was able to quickly calm himself down.

But after hearing one of the three strange woman's offer to share personal information his paranoia returned in a small margin being how he found such a thing highly suspicious. But the borderlander kept such a thing to himself as he silently began to consider what he should and shouldn't tell them if he does indeed share anything at all. This caused him to miss some of the events that happened, but the mercenary was thankfully able to hear the odd man who conjured the foreign food in front of him's offer to tell one another their names. Which of course surprised the guardsman and forced the madman to chuckle in his usual odd way for a reason that he neither knew nor cared about. But what surprised him even more was that the three strange woman gave their names..but the aes sedai-like nature surrounding them made him consider the fact that they might be clever aliases. The man's suspicions only deepened when they sudden began to ramble about things that he neither or cared about. When lightning suddenly appeared out of nowhere just to strike the poor girl who was a fair distance away from him. This of course caused the Shienaran to practically leap out of his sleep. But after noticing how idiotic he looked and that the three odd woman would more then likely help regardless he silently raised his seat as his cheeks turned bright red before he said in a fairly awkward tone. "My name is..Adwith." Then the borderlander immediately lifted his armed and placed them onto the table, before digging his head into them out of complete and utter shame concerning his childishness and the fact that he didn't make up a alias.

Aeris

Aeris had ignored what Felix was saying completely even though it took a fair amount of effort as she was starting to fall asleep. When the doors suddenly forced open before a elf who seemed to be ranked fairly highly entered. Such a thing of course surprised the demonic feline but she was able to keep herself from doing anything stupid with a fair amount of effort as she calmly eavesdropped on their conversation while pretending to be preoccupied, which was one of the many things she was trained to do so only a trained eye or someone who suspects it was her would know that she was listening in. While the cat might have ignored most of the things mentioned in their conversation she did find the fact the colonel who had just been promoted was assigned to her summoner's "alliance" if it can be called that anymore. So the demon moved her eyes over to the officer and gave him a glare of which made it perfectly obvious that she wished to murder him so that he wouldn't stab them in the back later as she completely ignored everything up to the point where the women who seemed to have the power of goddesses spoke up. Then the girl's gaze practically zoomed to them as she really didn't listen but pretended to be doing so..then once they finished she continued to carefully watch the elf for even the slightest hostile movement.

Thankfully, the adolescent demon was still able to control herself when the man suddenly stabbed his fork into the table for little to no apparent reason. Since a few of her instincts were practically screaming at her to kill him immediately after seeing such a thing. But she decided to listen to what both of the elves had to say, and her usual grin formed across her face after the higher ranking one made it perfectly obvious that he underestimated bony. But her smile rose significantly after her cat-like hearing caught the colonel's comment towards the viking chief as she thought. I certainly don't, since your arrogance is getting rather irritating to say the very least and it's been awhile since I've had something to test my accuracy with a throwing knife on. But that same smile returned back to normal after the goddesses introduced themselves..and then gave the names of goddesses of significant power and influence. Yet the hardest part was keeping herself from attacking Hecate after she turned her gaze over to Dennis for some odd reason. Then after the goddesses finished the demon relaxed a bit..until a bolt of lightning suddenly and pointlessly struck the woman who was not very far or close to her. Which of course startled the girl, but after seeing that it wasn't threatening the undead thief she simply didn't care about it. But the demonic feline wasn't suspecting the odd soldier like man to speak as awkwardly as he seemed to, and she certainly didn't know that the idiotic mage would give his real name. Yet the cat remained quite out of wariness being how she didn't trust the strangers in front of her with such knowledge..at least until they give their own name as well.

Dennis

Denis had of course been daydreaming while Felix laid out his conditions. Yet the Lich's attention was finally brought back into the real world when the doors were practically flung open. So the thief turned his head towards the elf as he silently listened to what the officer had to say. But the creature slowly began to lose interest, when he suddenly heard that the prick who he knocked out got promoted. This of course irritated him slightly..but it also brought his attention back to whatever the officer was saying exactly.

Yet the mage had been a bit surprised to hear that "Santa" would no longer be attending their meeting..but one of the excuses that the unknown elf gave had only increased his irritation. This was of course-"his duty to succour the impoverished children of Existence"-which the Lich viewed as complete and utter bullshit. The reasons why were rather plentiful, the first being that he never saw the man himself back when he was a child who was forced to steal in order to survive. Yet another was that the Teshli had acted like a bit of an asshole to him the entire time..so he couldn't imagine the oddly muscular man even saving a cat in a tree. Suddenly and thankfully, the mage stopped himself before the mist began to form even though his fairly irked expression remained on his face for a fair amount of time.

But it still took the thief awhile to regain his composure..and when he did he immediately forced his usual grin to appear across his face. Which was when he saw the odd woman with the trench-coat take her leave. Which caused him to wonder why she was leaving exactly and miss "Tessy's" face go red entirely. Yet Dennis looked over to see if the colonel was still glaring at him as if the Lich and just murdered his entire family immediately after kicking him in the balls. But the thief was both amused and fairly confused by what he heard. So when the colonel moved his head to face him the creature gave him a rather playful wink before listening to the unknown elf's response. Which only caused his grin to grow being how he loved to be underestimated. Yet his grin turned into a smug smile after hearing the fact that the officer was furious with him, which also caused him to stop listening entirely as he planned ways to see just how far he could push the elf.

Yet his attention was grabbed by the goddesses who began to speak, so he decided to listen because he was smart enough not to ignore beings of such unknown but great power. Then as each gave their name his smile began to fall significantly..then after the last one spoke he was back to his grin of which was obviously forced as he only heard brief parts of whatever they spoke of out of simple fear for his life as thought concerning his escape ran through his mind. Yet all of those thoughts stopped once Hecate's gaze fell upon him as he thought. Shit they're onto me! Yet he quickly regained his composure after he wasn't forced to endure either a quick death or a slow and rather unpleasant punishment for his thoughts. When both suddenly and pointlessly the odd girl who was fairly close to him was struck by lightning, but after seeing the three goddess near her he quickly suppressed the urge to help. When just as suddenly the rather odd looking soldier gave his name as if he was a teenager confessing his eternal love to his crush, which caused him to burst out laughing for a fair amount of time before slowly began to stop being how the magical power he was using in order to laugh was starting to have an effect on him. But the Lich was able to regain his composure fairly quickly as he shrugged before saying. "I'm just a simple thief myself, not a knight like Sire Adwith the Shy over here." The thief used his head to signal over to the man who was now buried in his own arms before continuing. "By the way, my name is Dennis." The mage gave Hecate a forced but still fairly sly wink as he attempted to hide his wariness of them being how he really didn't know how to act around those specific goddesses. Then he simply sat back and relaxed as the adolescent demon sitting next to him spoke as well.

Moon Sisters

Selene was caught off guard by the lightening strike suddenly changing direction towards her. Hecate quickly summon a rift and the lightening went in and quickly sapped the magic of the rift.
From the other side the rift lead to the sky of the ice realm, the lightening struck one of the heavenly dragons and it let out a loud roar of pain as it fell from the sky, crash landing close to the momunment for the deceased elves.

Back in purgitory Jahvi saw the scene and not only found the cursed immortal's suffering amusing but was now think of an idea on using her curse for his plans, the Nepharite let out sinister chuckles as it watch the scene unfold.

Hecate glared at Serena, furious at mostly her curse but still harbor hatred to the immortal that the curse is attached to for almost harming her sister. The crone summon several specters and they used their combined powers to lift Serena away from the table and into the corner of the room. The crone turn to look at Selene. "Sister it is best if we keep our distance from that woman. Obviously that curse is willing to harm anyone or anything that brings even the smallest comfort to her. For the safety of everyone present she will have to stay in the corner."

Selene replied back. "You think forcing her to the corner will help solve anything? The only way to help her is to find a way to remove that curse." Hecate stay silent for a few minutes. "I think it's best if we throw that woman to the void. It's obvious that if this thing can make her survive past multiple histories than nothing can break the curse. At least in the void nothing of value will be harm." Selene was shocked at what her sister said, even Artemis was surprised. Soon both Selene and Hecate began to argue while Artemis only put her arms on the table and use them as pillows as she place her head down, covering her exasperated face.

[Contamenesia]

Fauna

Fauna stopped eating when the lightning bolt happened. The Serena girl had been knocked out cold. "Oh my gosh! Is she okay?" When she heard one of the sisters talking about throwing the poor girl into the Void. Fana got angry, "No one is throwing anybody anywhere! We will find a way to break her curse, in the mean time, you three need to stop acting like children and sit down this instant! And you call yourself goddesses...." she folded her arms in disapproval. She couldnt beleive beings such as they were acting like frightened little children...."And Adwith, sit up and pay attention! you can make a fool of yourself later, now isnt the time. Think of Tak and that girl, Cyrssa. Dont you want to honor Tak and save Cyrssa?" She didnt mean to sound so furious, but she was on ant, so it kind of carried over from her last topic...

Kyne

Kyne turned down the cigarette. "I dont smoke. Smoking doesnt just kill you, it kills everyone around you as well. Well, those of us that are mortal anyhow....but no, dont smoke, im not that cruel to those around me." she said, taking into consideration the goddesses and the Voodoo String woman...

Kyne sighed, "Tak was a good young man. And a brave and skilled warrior. But it is Cyrssa i am in debted to. Her and her Technology saved my life, when nothing else possibly could. I wont pretend to understand how she did it, but she...healed me...and saved me..." Kyne was silent for a moment. "Ten years ago, i was a slave...had been one since i was fourteen...My 'Masters' were a group of cruel, malicious bandits. I was still a skilled fighter then, but they were better...they made me do....things. they used me any way they saw fit. One day, we were in a camp just outside of town. I was ordered to clean their armor, and one of them, the leader, Jorgal, pointed out i had missed a spot, he flew into a rage and....threw me, completely disarmed into a pin of ravenous Navites, which proceeded to tear me apart, they even...ripped me in half...but that is when this little girl came, with pointed ears. She killed the beasts, and somehow healed me, made me whole, then she fought and killed all of my 'masters'....all by herself...it was 36 men against one seven year old girl. they didnt stand a chance....i couldnt believe my eyes..." tears began to roll down Kyne's face. "i was whole but still heavily injured, but the little girl carried me all the way to her home, where Tessy and the others took care of me until i was better..."

Kyne faltered, obviously caught up in the memories...."I saw the feelings she had for Tak, so....i knew.....i knew what i had to do, to repay my debt to her...when they were old enough, i would convince Tak to marry her....but now..." she couldnt finish, instead she pounded her fist against a nearby wall. Tears now flowing down her cheeks....

Beetle

Beetle smirked, but only for a small moment. "You forget that my organization has all the Time in Existence. There is no need for me to rush or hurry. it wont take me long to capture her regardless of when i start. As for why my curiosity, It isnt every day you see one of the Four travelling with a fairy, two anomalies and a she-hulk of sorts." he folded his arms. "Cold, you seem almost a little hostile...you should be careful with your tone and word choice. i really would prefer i not have to be sent to put you in your place, as i have been for Chaos and Singularity." He wasnt threatening her, rather stating that he would rather not have to deal with such a situation at the moment. Though, he would if he had to.

There is no need for me to rush or hurry. it wont take me long to capture her regardless of when i start.

He wasnt threatening her, rather stating that he would rather not have to deal with such a situation at the moment. Though, he would if he had to.

Aruvia frowned, the paused. She wasn't afraid of the Ahmarhan. Fear was for warm bloods. And Aruvia wanted to tell this Ahmarhan why she was hostile. How she had been beholden to no one but herself until the Ahmarhan came along. Of course the Bards were more powerful, and there were beings with more importance in existance, but none of them sought to subjugate Aruvia in this manner. Now she was expected not only to follow their orders, but also to do so without rancor. Aruvia had been patient, and had left them to their own devices and not bothered them, but still they kept coming back to remind her of her humiliation. Something as old and proud as her was but a house drake for these warm bloods... A old tool to be kept around because she was too inconvenient to replace.

But, Aruvia might not have been afraid of them, but she knew fighting them was futile. Plus Beetle could cause many a trouble for her on this quest.

"I know my place." She forced out awkwardly and painfully, like pulling a tooth. Then went silent as she looked away.

[Naval Monte]

Moon Sisters

Hearing the bard's outburst surprised the three sisters, Artemis raising her head up and Selene and Hecate stopped arguing. The three of them sat back down and while Selene and Hecate refused to look at each other all three were silently thankful to the bard for stopping the argument.

Artemis broke the silence. "Your right this curse can be broken, after all if the curse had a begining than it has to have an ending. The question is how does one break curse that has outlasted most histories of existence?" Artemis hummed to herself as she ponder on what would be the first step to breaking the curse.

After breaking out her embarrassment over what Selene said Tessy finally spoke. "I don't know anything about curses but maybe we can find someone who is good with curses? That way they can find a way to break it." Hecate only shook her at the reply. "Even if we do find a willing curse specialist to help us chances are they will not be able to solve on how to break the curse." Artemis than spoke up.

"You two remember that one world that was littered with curse left and right? Maybe we can find something in that world." She said reluctantly, as if even she doesn't quite support her own idea. "We may have two guides from that world presently with us I rather not go there." Selene replied back. She turn to look at Fauna. "Do you think you can use your powers to deal with the curse?"

Elizabeth

"You wouldn't be the first person to tell me that, my doctors keep warning me that if Inkeep on smoking I would get lung cancer. If I have to be Fran with you if this little thing does kill me it would be a miracle considering how many enemies I got back home." Elizabeth moved away from Kyne and returned back to her previous spot, leaning on the wall as she lit the cigarette.

Elizabeth was silent throughout Kyne's story, only making a few noise when she made some small movement to find a comfortable position, blowing smoke towards the ceiling. "Never though the elf would have it in her to kill someone, I severely underestimated her. I can see why you would want her to be happy after what she did, luckily for you and your plan Tak and Cryssa were not blood relatives." Elizabeth looked somberly at the woman who was now crying as she punch the wall.

"I can''to say I can relate on being a slave but I do know how feels being in debt to the one who not only freed you but also saved you." She took one last smoke before putting it out. "I mentioned before that my mother use to teach me magic right? The reason she doesn't know is not because I graduated or something like that but I wish did. No she was killed by this... Thing, who's face I can't even remember." She looked down to the ground.

"No kid should ever have to hold on to their own mother as she slowly dies in front of them, getting covered in their own mother's blood while her fucking killer is watching you down." She shouted, both bitterness and sorrow being clear in her voice. "I didn't even realize that the thing that took my mother away was still in the room, I was too busy trying to keep my mum awake as she said her last words to me. I don't remember what happen too much after I finally saw the thing. All I remember was standing in front of the door to an old friends house, banging on it with my fists while was sobbing and screaming uncontrollably."

Elizabeth took a deep breath, trying to stay cool and not let any tears come out."I rather not talk about the funeral cause that was a terrible experience to go through but after that was done I was force to live for almost my childhood on same run down orphanage. Most of the other kids in their were either cruel little shites who were part of their own gangs or stayed in their own cliques cause they were scared to be alone since being alone made you an easy target for those hellions." Elizabeth snorted. "Most staff there either didn't notice or cared on what was going on. The few that did care couldn't never find a way to improve anything in that hellhole."

Elizabeth turn her head up to look at the ceiling. "As for me I couldn't find any group that wanted me in, no one wanted the cry baby who was into strange things like magic. I was a clever girl even back than and I knew that using my wit and funny was the only way I was going to make it through the place until some family shows up and takes me away. Yet ever time some family came in to adopt someone none of them picked me, hell no one who knew me ever drop by to visit or adopt me, I didn't even get one sodding letter."

She muttered, from her breathing it was obvious now that she was close to crying but was doing her best not too. "Once I figured out that I was stuck in there I just sunk deeper into my own despair. I probably would have stayed like that if it wasn't for a surprise visitor that showed up out of the blue and walked through the whole place looking for me. That visitor was an old friend of my mum, his name was Nathan Crane, he too was a mage but Inalways saw him more as a traveler than a mage."

Elizabeth let a small smile cross her face. "Once he found me I can't even begin to describe on how overjoyed I was on seeing someone who not only wanted to see me but also I knew.. Of course we only talked for an hour but that hour was the best moment of my life, it got better when he said that he would get me out of that place." Elizabeth's smile faded.

"Unfortantly he never had the chance to do it cause the next thing I knew he was taken out of the place on a stretcher, for some reason he got very ill in there. For almost a week ainheard nothing from Nat until some time in the night he came back, only he was using astral projection." Elizabeth crossed her arms in front of her chest, her finger griping on to her arms tightly.

"He told me that he got ill due to a curse casted by some one inside the building. He and a small group found that some cult was running the place and not only did they know that I was not your usual would be mage but they were the reason why no one ever wrote or visited me until Nat,Nehru no family wanted to adopt me. Those bastards wanted me cut off from anyone who knew me so when I was the right age they would spirit me away some where far away to whatever crazy shut they had planned for me."

Elizabeth than told Kyne the plan that Nathan and his group hatched a plan to set her free. She explained how Elizabeth's part was sneaking out of the place and running off to a meeting point, she freely admit that during the break out she cursed the man in charge of the building simply to get revenge for the years she was trapped in the building.

"Of course the documents that he had on me were forged but considering what we were dealing with it was for the best. The cult never had a chance to try and find me as an "anonymous" source tipped them about the poor condition of the place that they ran and were force to flee away from the cops."

At this point Elizabeth was sure that she manage to stop herself from crying, but as she rubbed her eyes she found them wet. "I felt indebted to him. So when he enrolled me back to school I decided to try and act on my best behavior for him. He wanted me to have both a normal life and to still practice magic. For most of my teenage and early twenties I lived like that... But as you can tell something came along to break that cycle." Once more Elizabeth rubbed her eyes.

Elizabeth walked over to Kyne and put her arm around her shoulder. "It's kinda funny how when we both met Tess she was there to care for our sorry asses." She said follow by chuckling.

[Generailia]

Dennis

Dennis's smile twitched after the goddesses made it perfectly obvious that they ignored him completely. But the Lich decided to eavesdrop on their discussion nonetheless, mostly because he didn't wish for the mist to start appearing around three beings that could and would kill him without a second thought. The creature was of course surprised when they shoved the fairly pretty looking girl they brought along with them into some random corner as if she was a small child..but he so completely dumbfounded to both see and hear the three fairly powerful and well known goddesses bicker among themselves in the middle of a meeting that he stopped trying to listening to their argument all together.

Thankfully, the child-like woman's pointless freakout brought them under control and broke the wall of confusion that was laid before him. So the mage simply listened to what the goddesses had to say and after they finished speaking he immediately opened his mouth to comment..but the demon beside him gave him such a murderous glare that he decided against it. Not because he was afraid of her of course, but because he rather not have an argument during an already dull meeting much like the one that the goddesses before him had just finished. Yet his grin grew due to his old sense of curiosity and adventure that he always used to carry along with him back when he was still alive and stealing something. Which only caused the Aeris to shrug before she began to watch the goddesses, while still glancing at her summoner every now and then just to make sure that he doesn't say or try anything stupid like he always seems to do.

Adwith

Adwith neither eavesdropped on the three odd women's argument or even paid any attention to his surroundings. The reason for this is because the Shienaran's moderately full stomach made him a bit more tired then he was before..and he slowly began to fall asleep regardless of the noise due to the fact that he had done such a thing many times in the past. The borderlander of course wished to stay awake, but his consciousness was slowly slipping away even when the bard had an outburst that he ended up missing completely due to his current state.

Leonel had still managed to eavesdrop on everything that was going on, so after Fauna finished speaking he ended up ignoring the responses of the "goddesses" of which was another world that he didn't know the meaning of as he practically roared. Soldier, does this really seem like a good time to sleep?! We are in the middle of a meeting..that might be excessively dull but it at least seems to be fairly important! Oh, and the bard seemed to have challenged your honor as well. I do believe it involved something excessively childish such as "honoring the dead" but I can't be too sure. Since she seemed to have some sort of mental breakdown, but I do suggest you get up and at least look like your paying attention before she starts throwing things. The mercenary was honestly surprised by the fair amount of apparent sanity in the madman's voice, but his excessively drawn out chuckling before fading away assured him that the voice was still one of insanity. Yet the guardsman raised his head nonetheless as he silently both observed and listened to what was going on around him..but his sleepiness was painfully obvious as was the fact that such a thing caused him to not really care much about whatever was happening around him nonetheless. But his expression started slowly turning back to the fairly cold and emotionless one that had been across his face for most of the meeting as he slowly reverted back to a far more conscious state.

[Contamenesia]

Kyne

As Kyne listened to her response she raised her eyebrows, "A pointed ear Alveranian and a human boy, clearly they must be blood related. one has light pale skin, the other a natural red tanned tone. Clearly, blood related." she said with a surprising amount of sarcasm. She then wet onto listen to the Voodoo girl's story, and when she finished, Kyne replied. "It is not your fault that you were cursed with Voodoo since birth and were left to feel its taint in your life." As Elizabeth came closer and commented upon Tessy's involvement in their lives, she replied, "It isnt surprising really, after all her healing is how she met her...ex...fiance. they would have married too, but she was brutally raped and murdered only five days before the wedding would have been. Tessy and her never had that chance...."

Crowe

Crowe's magic finished dressing him, he turned to the two women, "I'll leave you two to your pleasures, but if you'll excuse me, i think I'll explore a bit." he said with a big grin, and with that, he left the room. He made his way down the hall, and as he passed a room, he saw two women, a pale, skinny girl and a hybrid of sorts talking with one another. "Hello ladies!" he said with a wink, though he continued walking, but he would certainly talk to them later.

it wasnt long before he came across the confrence room, where several people where gathered around a table, eating. except for a demon, the undead from earlier and a girl who was unconscious in the corner. His senses told him that there was something extremely Wrong with her, but she was a beauty none the less...

He had walked in upon a conversation, and decided to jump in, "Oh a curse eh? Not sure i know of any Bard that knows a song that can remove immortality, but you never know. Anyway, Hello ladies, Crowe the Bard at your service!" he turned and looked at the girl with flowers in her hair, she was a Bard like him., her cheeks were red as she seemed to recognize who he was. "Why hello, my extravagant beauty, i cant beleive I'll be reincarnating to such a lovely woman like yourself..." he took her hand and kissed it. Her cheeks got redder, though she seemed very wary of him. he simply grinned.

Fauna

Oh gods no, why him...? Of all the Bards why did it have to be Crowe?! He had a reputation with women. and rumor was that he had even bedded other Bards, which made Fauna feel a bit uneasy. Sure, he had a different body, mind, past, and personality, but they both had the same soul, and were technically the same being, being the Bard. When he took her hand and kissed ot, she couldnt help but blush, but what irritated her the most was how alluring he was, she was certain all the other women in the room felt it too. Even Celestia seemed to blush, but she seemed confused about it.

Fauna pulled her hand away, continuing on with the previous conversation, "What he says is true, and also im not sure if that is a feat any one Bard can do, as it seems to be quite powerful. whoever placed it on her must be extremely powerful in their own right..." Crowe interrupted, "That may or may not be the case, i cant say much as i havent seen the extent of this 'curse'.But I'll take y'all's word for it. " he gave them a wink. then he turned to the other women in the room. "I'm surprised to see so many stunning beauties in one room." he winked at the demon, and gave the rest a smile. This time Fauna interrupted him, "Anyways, i think i should bring up the topic of what do you want with Celestia? you guys seem to be so interested in who and what she is..."

Beetle

Beetle refolded his mask. "That is all we ask of you. we could care less what you do in your everyday lives, but if they threaten Existence, or would to interfere with our business, then of course we will intervene. I will be reporting this incident to Ursa Major, but i will be on my way..." and with that, he vanished.

It wasnt long until he found the girl. She knew she had little time and seemd very panicked, but Beetle knew that the girl was already out of time. She was running, and he appeared right in front of her, causing to bump into him and fall to the ground with a loud "oof!". he grabbed her and slammed her into the ground, breaking her legs. he could easily have just killed her, but those were not her orders. He grabbed her head and the standard seamless black armor engulfed her. She was still crying in pain, cussing and squirming to no avail. and with that, he opened a portal and pulled her through....

Aruvia sighed, then turned to Jason. "That was a member of the Ahmarhan. If you are lucky, you will never have to meet one of them again."

Jade folded her arms. "He's not that bad! He was pretty friendly when I met him last... and all of them are just misunderstood." She remarked.

Violet sighed. "That was a waste of time. What did he even want from us?"

Aura paused. "His armour looked interesting... I couldn't sense his energy very well. Of course he outputs a lot of kinetic energy. And even then he seems to be holding a lot of it back..."

[Kaidou]

Dimension 888,815

Enough talking already, Felix supposed.

With a loud clearing of his throat, the Angel stood up, before straightening out his clothes. "I suppose we've had enough discussion already", he said. "Shall we make a move? I don't want to burden Father Christmas by taking up his lounge."

Hiccup placed his fork back onto the table. "It's not too early?"

"Definitely not", Felix replied. "As we speak, Maju could be up to anything. Hell, he could be adding on to his already ridiculously large army."

The Viking Chief placed his fork on the table. "You have a point there."

Rotehund simply grunted and unbuttoned the top button of his shirt.

"All of you ready to come along?" asked Felix. He raised his hand and pulled open a portal to the Hotel. Immediately, the gentle scent of the Hotel's soothing perfume wafted through to the lounge in which they all sat. The part of the Hotel that Felix had connected them to appeared to be one of the numerous lobbies across the Hotel.

"Shall we go?"

Several centuries ago
Dimension 33,716,800,000

This theme for the walking part, maybe?

The purple sands whipped across the crystalline planet as a raging sun beat down upon the surface. Despite the rays of light that fell upon the ground, the air was surprisingly cooling. The serene atmosphere, however, failed to reveal the great battle that was to take place.

Slowly, two figures walked across the bizarrely coloured ground, before standing sturdily at one part, as if waiting for someone to show up. Both were guardians of the Hotel; there was Illushu, the one who held the gigantic golden Hammer, and there was Klingsor, the one with the Trident. Both of them had come to take down something that was acting rather suspiciously.

Likewise, this thing also walked towards them slowly, as if it was expecting to meet the two of them there.

I don't know what this thing is. However, it will attempt to lunge at both of us and bisect us with its weapons.

The moment the two scythes came, Klingsor leaped into the air, while Illushu parried with his Hammer. A single red eye flashed on the face of the bizarre black figure, before suddenly dying away. The black figure, likewise, dissipated into the air, vanishing completely.

"Vhat exactly vas zat?"

That same moment, the black figure reappeared behind the two of them, only to be slashed by the prongs of Klingsor's trident. It suddenly regenerated by the side of a large stalagmite of the strange crystal that the entire planet was made of. With a single flick, the black figure tore the stalagmite from the ground and hurled it at the two Tenshi. Though they were both able to smash the thing, the black figure lunged at them the moment they did.

Now, it will try to grab me and throw me across the planet.

The Trident's prongs soon found their mark in the body of the black figure. Before it could dissipate, Klingsor seized its neck, hardening his palm with Haki, so as to prevent it from escaping.

"Who are you?" he asked.

The figure laughed. "My name is Holming", it said. "I don't see what significance that would hold to you, though."

"Tell me, Holming, who are you, exactly?"

"Well", said the figure. "I'm a…"

"Look out! Zere's somesing coming!"

Klingsor was able to duck, just as a red eye formed behind the head of the dark figure, firing a bolt of red energy that would have taken off the Tenshi's head if it weren't for his compatriot's warning. In his shock, however, Klingsor had released the neck of the dark figure, thus allowing it to shoot up into the sky and vanish completely.

"Zere's nosing more ve can do hier", said Illushu.

Klingsor, however, was silent.

What was that thing?

…

I need to learn more about it…

[Charmera]

Avatar Council

The Avatar council was a huge chamber, almost impossibly large. It was shaped like a huge sphere. With many a small disc upon which all the solar systems of the thirteen verse's stood. Each had the sun, the largest individual on each of the podiums, the shortest being about 6-7 feet tall while the tallest could be 9 feet. The planets were similarly statuesque, though they were only about a head taller than the tallest human at most. There was a space in the middle where a screen depicted the action so all could see, the place where the greatest of the stars were, the legends. Most of the Galaxies were long missing and rumoured dead and the embodiments of the universes themselves were practically myth. So these were the de facto leaders at the moment.

The stars Avatars seemed to radiate a light, the different colours showing the different clans they belonged to. The red suns were the most warlike, belligerent, bellicose and quick to anger. They possessed the power to gain strength from war and rage. The blue suns were more intuitive, caring and calm, natural born telepaths who sought to connect and heal. The Green suns were greed, avaricious, yet ambitious and intelligent. Theirs was the power of transmutation. Orange suns are loyal, stoic and tenacious, and are great architects and builders. They're power is the ability to create constructs. Violet suns are secretive, mysterious and elusive, often having confusing agendas. Their strength is their illusions, made from light, though also psychic in nature. The white stars are puritanical and obsessive, with telekinesis at their control. Yellow suns are mavericks, rogues and scoundrels, freedom fighters and freedom lovers. Their powers over electricity and ability to turn into electrons makes them very elusive. Blue-White stars are logical and cold, and have cryokinetic powers.

Finally, those few black holes that show up exude an endless hunger. A void which demands and takes sustenance. A hole from which nothing escapes. They had no time for petty council matters, but came anyway sometimes to feast off the combined light of their peers.

Today, the council was discussing the death of Asmora. A death of a star Avatar was not too rare, but often it was a natural death or at the hands of one of their own (And even murder by another Avatar was very uncommon). But this appeared to be an external threat of some sort, according to the evidence. Just whom was the question.

The first speaker was Sigra, a blue star. "We are all shocked by the loss of an Avatar. Asmora was a member of our community, and regardless of what she might have done, we can all agree her loss has left a hole where she once was." He paused. "I would advise caution and respect when suggesting... theories that may connect to her death. Firstly this is a death of a council-member, and that requires some respect to be observed. And secondly her death is still being investigated..."

A red hand slammed down on the desk. Ghandora Red Tyrant of Sigur system. On her disc were her many children, running amok. "Dammit Sigra one of our own has been killed! And yet you talk of investigation. We know who did it!" She pointed at another representative, one of the black holes.

"Ghana... Please. There's no evidence to suggest that it would be them. The truce still holds."

"We don't now who did this... but we do have some ideas." Spoke a violet star. Jhasban "Revis. Khalkan. Bahrn. All killed by unknown beings..."

"This court was not made to entertain your ridiculous conspiracy theories!" Bellowed a white star, her eyes aflame. Tasdara a staunch traditionalist. "Motion to penalise Jhasban for her... his..." She paused. "Uh..."

"HA! Your going to have to have a motion to get Ol' Jhasy to reveal their gender." Shouted out Halgraman the regular comedic relief of the debates. "And Jhas won't even reveal her favourite colour."

"These irrelevancies don't change the facts. There are forces beyond our control at work here." Jhas spoke out.

"Oh yes! And what would these forces have to gain by killing poor Asmora." Spoke a green star. Asmokan. "By the way, this motion should really be about her compensation for her funeral proceedings."

Sigra was angry for the first time. "Do you turn everything into a way for you to get money?"

This continued for quite a while and Vega sighed from her small platform far from the action as she watched them bicker. She then turned away from the proceedings.

"Miss Vega." Spoke one of her planets. "Where are you going?"

She paused. "I'm going to get some air..."

They don't care. None of them do. None of them knew Asmora and now they're arguing about what should be done.

She was a friend... and now... she's gone.

Elizabeth

"Considering what else I had to live with having magic as my sole companion for most of my life is a blessing to a degree." Elizabeth retorted back after Kyne told her that it wasn't her fault on being cursed with magic and to feel it's effect in her life. "I think it's best if I don't tell her that I sometimes think of my own magic as a curse, she may use it to strength her insane purging idea." For now Elizabeth can tell that talking her out of that plan is not the right time, but she knew that if she doesn't try talking her out of it soon than many future lives would be lost, both for magic users and for Kyne's people.

Elizabeth closed her eyes and nodded when Kyne said that Tessy met her fiance when she was healing her, it actually sounds about right with Tessy. But her eyes flew open when Kyne told her what had happen to Jak. "What! Tess told me that she was killed in a gun fight..." Elizabeth played back the events of when she and Tessy shared on what happened to their previous lovers. "Did the wanker who did it was ever caught? If he wasn't than I know what I'm going to do once we return both you and Tessy back home." the now fuming mage uttered, her fingers now clawing painfully on Kyne's shoulders as she thought of many ways to make the man who harm Tessy and her ex fiance in just a way.

Just than Elizabeth's train of thought was brought to an end when Crowe walked pass them, greeting them and giving them a wink. Elizabeth turn to see him walk towards the conference room. "I think we found our other bard and I can see how he manage to get Alzis to sleep with him, my god what I would do to have an alluring presence like that." Elizabeth said looked at Kyne to see if the bard got a reaction out of the hybrid. Elizabeth sensed both Alzis heading their way and a portal opening back in the lounge. "Get ready for two things luv. The first is that your going to meet Alzis face to face and that we are about to leave this place soon."

Moon Sisters

The Moon Sisters were surprised to see the second bard appear and even more when he decided to flirt with the second, even after stating that she was a recantation of him. Artemis cheeks were red upon seeing him while Selene seem to try and hide it but with her cheeks being pink it show that the bard's alluring aura was working on her, as for Hecate hiding in her hood hide her face to which she was glad as she wanted no one to see her face now. All three of them were thankful that Fauna decided to ask them a rather important question.

"Ah right the string. She is important cause while she may not be an active threat to the hotel her existence and agenda of seeking out every skill in existence is rather troubling to us. Once more the fact that a person can merge with her to become a being of pure skill is an even greater threat, especially if individuals like Maju or Haikara get their hands on her." Of course they left out the ritual that would make the merge go much more easier as it negates the true love aspect of the merger, so far they can not allow the string to know that they are aware of such a ritual.

Just than Felix announced on leaving the lounge and opens a portal to a lounge within the hotel, the scent of the perfume was lovely to the sisters. "Wait what about Kyne and Elizabeth? We can't leave them behind." called out Tessy, she still had small traces of doubt within her on being a part of this alliance and not having Kyne and Elizabeth around would only make those doubts grow, plus she doesn't want to make those two worry with her and the rest of the group being absent.

"Don't worry Ms Inuu we will get those two to get their butts back here." Artemis cheerfully replied, summoning a vial with green liquid inside. The vial open by itself and some bits of the liquid flew out of the vial and floated on the air in the form of a sphere. Hecate created a portal and the sphere flew towards it, everyone soon heard Elizabeth yelling out "bloody hell" from the other side of the portal. "Strange question Tessy but do you think your girl friend would look good with longer hair? You see I threw a potion that causes hair growth. Why would I throw something like that to Ms Ashwood? For laughs really." she smiled at Tessy as she stuck out her tongue, giving her a wink.

Alzis

Alzis took a while on finally leaving the bunker, after all she needed to make herself presentable again before she can face anyone. She looked back and sure enough the archon that was inside was gone. "I suppose that is for the best, I rather not explain to the others what archons are. No doubt Elizabeth is already here." the woman let out an annoyed groan, she knew that somehow the mage was going to ruin her good mood. Alzis finally walked away from the bunker and into the HQ. Her workers immediately stopped what they were doing and followed their boss once they saw her walking to where the lounge would be, the archon was nice enough to tell her where to go before she left.

Alzis rode the elevator first alone so she can have some time to herself. Once the elevator reach the top and the doors slide open Alzis walked through the halls and sure enough before even meeting the woman she felt her power, once she finally saw Elizabeth she was somewhat surprised to see her with as hybrid of sort. "I heard that you would flirt with any being as long as they are mostly human by appearance and it seems those rumors are true." Alzis stated as she crossed her arms in below her chest, Elizabeth only gave the other woman a smirk.

"Hello to you too Alzy, aren't you glowing today? I guess that bard knew what he was doing to make you loss that massive stick up your arse." Alzis blushed slighty, she was surprised about Elizabeth knowing what she and Crowe did. "A little skeletal birdy told me the story." her smirk now more mischievous. "That miserable revenant! If I wasn't bound by the contract of this alliance I will make that lazy good for nothing undead thief pay dearly for spreading that sort of information about me." Alzis fumed, only casuing Elizabeth's smirk to grow.

Suddenly they both felt and heard the sound of a portal opening and before they can react a glob of green liquid hit Elizabeth on her head, causing the mage to scream out a curse that can be heard by anyone on the other side from the portal and to those in the hall presently, it was Alzis's turn to smirk. "For some one who can make their own luck your own luck tends to be shockingly bad. I wonder if the universe finds amusement in your suffering Ashwood?" Alzis covered her lips with her fingers as she contained her giggles, Elizabeth glaring at Alzis. "Yeah yeah, laugh it up Alzy. But I still want to know why you dragged me all the way to this place? Oh before I forget, that passage to the labyrinth was swarming with Zeloths and so far the end results of my journey there didn't bring me what I wanted. So I can say with confidence that you and The Fates have failed in customer stratification." Elizabeth proudly said, wanting to get the edge over Alzis.

Alzis wanted to latch out on the mage for saying those words about her services but thankfully she was able to keep a level head and only responded back with a look that pretty much say that she finds the mage before her an idiot. "We never said that you will find what your looking for, only that the possibility of what you desire might be there. As for the Zeloths you got me there. The last time we went there that passage was safe. I guess something in the Labyrinth caused them to move to that spot. However that is not enough to say that we have failed in our services." Alzis couldn't help but take a small peak into Kyne's mind, she knew that doing so with Elizabeth would either fail or result in a tense mental battle and right now Alzis was not the in the mood for failure or a fight. She scan through Kyne's recent memories and the one began to cackle at a series of mental flashes that she found in the hybrid's mind.

"It would seem while I may have not brought you what your originally seeked you found something else that was satisfying. Namely one Tessy Inuu." Elizabeth fought back a curse when she heard Alzis mention Tessy's name, it was her turn to grin. "I must say from the memories of the hybrid she most be a good kissers considering how you seem to like holding on to her rather tightly and close." Elizabeth tried to fight the blush that was threatening to appear but her pale cheeks easily betrayed her. "Can we move on to why you dragged me here already! Cause if I have to pay of that debt that I owe you than joining some crazy multiverse spanning war is one hell of a way to pay off by debt!" Elizabeth yelled out, Alzis dropped her smirk and gave the two woman a cold and clinical, if somewhat blank, expression as she explained her reason for why Elizabeth is here.

"My reason for bringing you here is because one of the members of this alliance had a dark spirit attached to his soul and while it is removed and sealed for now I'm afraid that the effect could be temporary. Encase this fear turns out to be true I have my people searching for a ritual that would separate said spirit from the soul once and for good and your knife has a key role in that ritual. I need you cause the same curse that grants the knife it's powers also curses anyone who touches that it doesn't chose to be it's wielder so due to that factor you were conscripted into this war. But since you mentioned about paying your debt to the Fates I guess this is one way to pay all of your debts to us." Alzis knew that hearing an offer like that would entice the mage to be at least more productive in this alliance.

"Why are you even getting concern for what so damn sorceress and arms dealer are up too? I know that you are not doing this cause your concern for the lives those two would take or ruin." Alzis decided to explain her reason for joining. "Quite simple really. The Fates have been moving to make more off world operations since the 90s and having someone like Maju roaming around free to destroy how many worlds he wants would not only jeopardize my business but would also either scare away or kill off potential customers and clients. Let's not forget that right now I rather enjoy our world existence since both my sources of income, power and entertainment comes from our world. Surely even you care somewhat for our world too?" Alzis's question was met with a snort from Elizabeth.

"I don't give a damn about our world, hell if it dies I wouldn't miss it. Besides I doubt that Maju and his metric fuck ton troops can even get close to the illusion without having every single omnipotent power there turning all of them into bloody ashes." the English woman retort back. She was telling the truth that she didn't care for the fate of her world and her hatred towards it, but she rather have it still exist now since she still has people that she cares for deeply living there. Alzis shook her head at Elizabeth's respond. "Right now I don't have time to deal with your cynicism. It would appear that the group is ready to leave and I rather not be left behind." Alzis walked pass them, as she does the elevator rang out to tell that more people have come to the floor, soon both Elizabeth and Kyne can see more members from the Fates coming their way. Once Elizabeth saw the crowd muttered a curse as she looked at Kyne. "Well our time is up luv. If you want we can have this lovey chat again later once we have the time and privacy to do so?" Elizabeth than moved away from Kyne and followed Alzis's lead back to the conference room.

Once Alzis reach the conference room she saw that there were new members within the room. She found the woman called Tessy, a young soldier by the look of his dirty and ragged attire, a young woman who's appearance makes her look like a child and... "Crap I forget that "she" would be here as well." "She" being Celestia who was strangely blushing while looking confused, Alzis followed where the string was looking at and found Crowe already introducing himself to everyone, mostly the ladies in the room. Alzis than found the three sisters and can tell that they were goddesses from their power and as she walked into the room she avoided Serena, she just didn't feel right to her. "Ah Ms Alzis, you arrived just in time. It would appear that our time in this world is drawing to a close." Alzis didn't like that these beings knew who she was but since they are in the room chances are someone in the room told them about her. "Right I was... busy, with some matters and it took me a while to arrive here. I take it that you people came here with Elizabeth right?" she said referencing Adwith, Fauna and Tessy. Alzis doubt that the goddesses and the woman with the disturbing aura traveled with Elizabeth.

Elizabeth than entered the room and with a big grin said. "Boy you were busy alright." she said with a chuckle, normally she would go on but right now with Alzis present in the room it would be too risky to do so. She and Alzis saw Crow already flirting with Fauna, Elizabeth whistle to get his attention. "Oi Casanova, before we even allow you to plough that virgin soil mind giving us your name and why your here? I doubt you originally came here just to flirt with every pretty girl you find on this realm? Which if that is the case than you pretty much got lucky today." Elizabeth walked back to her seat, she looked over to Tessy and found that she too was blushing due to see Crowe, like Celestia she was confused about why but unlike the string she knows the reason for her confusion, Elizabeth couldn't resist on this opportunity to tease Tessy. "Hmm could be that Tess is starting to realize that she can play on both sides of the field? Looks like we found another thing in common between us" Tessy looked back at Elizabeth, at first she wonder what she meant by that but quickly her blush grew she figured out what Elizabeth meant.


Elizabeth laugh once she saw Tessy's response, Tessy lightly punch her on Elizabeth's shoulder and said she was terrible in a teasing tone, she too getting a few chuckles at her own expense.

[Generailia]

Dennis

Dennis's smile twitched after seeing Crowe as he couldn't help but think. Fuck, not this horny prick again. So the Lich quickly decided to look away and completely ignore whatever he was saying exactly. But what the thief wasn't expecting was to the the demon beside him blushing like a normal girl her age who just saw her crush..yet the simple fact that she had a facial expression of which made it seem as if she was considering something only caused the amused grin that had begun to slowly creep across his face to grow to a margin of which made it's presence painfully obvious. Then after receiving a threatening glare from the girl his grin only grew, since he had never seen a demon embarrassed and he personally found it to be hilarious.

So much so that the creature couldn't help but chuckle as softly as he could as he turned to face Felix immediately after he started talking. Yet he found their topic of conversation to be immensely boring so he turned his attention to the colonel..only to see him unbutton the top button of his shirt. This of course caused the mage to think that more may follow so he turned his attention back to the foolish "king" and the man he was speaking towards. But the undead thief certainly wasn't expecting him to summon a portal so soon after the most recent battle, as his face made perfectly clear. Thankfully, one of the strange women that he "rescued" had made a point that would have delayed them if she weren't speaking to goddesses who summoned a portal just as easily as the man seemed to be able to do. This of course caused Dennis's grin to shrink back to it's normal size as the only thing that kept it still standing in the first place was the curse that echoed throughout the room.

Yet the Lich wasn't expected the woman to bring one of his least favorite "allies" along with them. Sadly, such disapproval was perfectly obvious as he silently watched the feminine figure for a very short amount of time until he turned his attention back to the oddly pale woman who had occupied them. Yet the thief only eavesdropped on what she had to say rather halfheartedly being how he knew that they would be departing fairly soon. But the comment that the odd girl said to the woman who didn't want to leave without her left him astonished, and her response only caused this to grow before he simply stopped himself from observing due to the fact that he had meet a fair amount of halfway decent looking women who played for the opposite team in the past and he rather not think that those girls were another two he had to mark off his list just yet. But it had been awhile since the creature had even flirted with a woman..since his current condition made any attempts rather awkward to say the very least. This also seemed to not be an exception, since he doubted that the "bard" could keep his dick in his pants long enough for him to even think of something even halfway decent to say to any of the strange women around him. So the mage remained silent as he began to daydream yet again.

Aeris

Aeris had only faintly sensed Crowe's power before he made his entrance, but such a thing was so far off from the being she saw fighting on the battlefield that only glanced at the door simply because she was curious about what being would make it's entrance. Yet the demonic feline wasn't expecting to see such a "man" walk in so randomly, but she was far more surprised to feel her slowly turn red immediately after the stranger made his entrance. The reason for this is because she is unable to do such a thing in her cat-form and had very rarely even felt the urge to do such a thing when in her demonic-form.

Yet the cat quickly figured that her current form obviously made her far more weak to this..and just as she was about to look away she ended up seeing her summoner giving her a infuriatingly wide grin that made his amusement perfectly obvious. Which caused the demon to give him one of her usual death glares, but after seeing the fact that it only made him look away before chuckling to himself softly she simply lifted her arms and dug her face into them as she slowly began to regain her composure. Yet the girl ended up ignoring the goddesses completely..and after the fairly powerful being summoned a portal before he finished speaking the redness had turned into a faint pink as she found that keeping her attention elsewhere seemed to lessen the alluring feeling that the rogue practically radiated. Which was when one of the three goddesses suddenly summoned a portal after speaking a few words that she couldn't care less about which caused a curse from the oddly pale girl to immediately flow threw gateway.

The adolescent demon was honestly surprised by the oddly large amount of time that the odd mage took to enter..but she was certainly expecting Alzis least of all. Yet the demon forced herself to ignore whatever the feminine figure said as she thought to herself nervously. It seems that another being who could defeat me was relative ease has made her entrance..I just hope that I could run faster then they could if things end up going south. The cat then stared at the portal blankly as she began to carefully consider an escape plan just encase things go sour, while purposefully moving her gaze any which way should Crowe even faintly appear within her vision just encase such an embarrassing moment should repeat itself.

Adwith

Adwith would have been surprised by Crowe's entrance if he still wasn't in a noticeably tired state. While Leonel certainly was both surprised and astonished for a bit until he began to chuckle rather softly for some reason currently unknown to the sellsword. But the long dead aes sedai decided to listen for his person amusement more then anything else..while the Shienaran's sleepy state began returning to normal at an accelerated rate. The madman of course found it amusing that some woman would name her child after a bird, but his good humor ended as quickly as it came after hearing the word bard as he thought. Light, please do not tell me that this boy is the same sort of "bard" as the fairly attractive yet rather dangerous girl whose hand he just kissed. Sadly, the voice's usually pointless proposals seemed to be right this time as the rogue and Fauna seemed to be familiar with one another. Yet the borderlander kept as he ignored the conversations around him completely in an attempt to wake himself up sooner..while the madman seemed to be stunned by the reaction that a large portion of the woman within the room now shared.

When the man who conjured his meal suddenly spoke the mercenary slowly turned his head over to him before forcing himself to listen as he fought the urge to rest his head yet again. But the guardsman was unable to make out a large portion of whatever the odd man told the old and rather oddly dressed warrior. So the man was completely astonished when the stranger made a portal with ridiculous amount of ease before casually asking if they should depart. Yet Tessy's question was the final push that forced him into his normal state..and just as he was about to agree with her one of the woman summoned another portal with as much ease as the man who conjured the food. Which of course caused the Shienaran to think to himself as a look of surprise temporarily covered his face. Blood and Ashes, with as much ease as these flaming beings make bloody gateways you would consider the creation of such a thing to be common knowledge! Yet when Elizabeth and Kyne returned the borderlander felt a feeling of relief..until he noticed the woman behind him. The mercenary was uncomfortable around Alzis since the woman reminded him of the more clever merchants and nobles that he had worked for in the past..and the madman was carefully examining her but his wariness was painfully obvious. Yet the guardsman quickly regained his composure once her eyes set upon him as his usual and fairly cold expression came across his face while he silently watched the woman..and when she asked if he came with the arrogant woman he simply nodded silently before his eyes fell upon the portal as he watched such a thing silently while still keeping his ears open for any new developments that might happen around him.

[Contamenesia]

Crowe

Crowe chuckled, "Name's Crowe, Crowe the Bard, at your service! i love your roguish tongue, gives you a wondeful charm. As for my purpose, well i seek only to bring joy, merriment, and pleasure to those around me. I had hope to catch up with my old friend Father Christmas, but it seems he is....preoccupied...ah well, i've got plenty of time...." he gave her a big goofy grin, and a playful wink. he wasnt very concerned about what was currently happening mainly because life was what you made it, and he preferred it pleasant rather than Dark...

Kyne

Kyne frowned, "A gunfight? well, technically that would be true...Tessy did get into a gunfight with the bandits, but was unable to save her. As for getting the monster who did it, well, its a bit late for that. Tessy and Saya killed him." She stopped as she noticed a man greet them, he was the most charming man Kyne had ever seen. She even felt herself blush, but she managed to fight it off. For a moment Kyne was a little scare had the man used Voodoo on her? after a moment's thought, she decided that no, he had not. Still she was a little unsettled as part of her wanted to see him again, even though she knew practically nothing about him.

As Elizabeth talked abut meeting this Alzis, Kyne sighed, "Another Voodoo user? Can i stab her?" she said. her tone was serious so it was hard for one to tell if she was joking or not....

Celestia

Celestia saw Elizabeth and the hybrid finally return, at which point she confronted the being. "You will teach Celestia now. or Celestia will force you..." she said, obviously no longer tolerant of waiting anymore for what she desired.

Cyrssa

There was another girl. She was not Cyrssa. She always screamed in pain. Cyrssa can not recall when she got here or if she was even here at all. Was this the future? the past? the present? She couldnt tell. Time did not exist here.She heard herself call out to the girl but she did not feel her own lips move. She could not tell if this was past-tense, now, or yet to be.....but still.... there was a little comfort in the thought of being not alone.

Jason

Jason wiped the blood off his cheek. "I dont care who the hell he was. he is gone now, and as far as i'm concerned that's all that matters. Let's get some rest for the night and search for the fairy girl in the morning..." he was pissed, but he was also concerned. Whoever that person was...the most disturbing thing about him was that he had no music...or at least..somehow it was hidden from Jason....either way, the thought was bit disturbing.

[Naval Monte]

Kyne

Kyne frowned, "A gunfight? well, technically that would be true...Tessy did get into a gunfight with the bandits, but was unable to save her. As for getting the monster who did it, well, its a bit late for that. Tessy and Saya killed him." She stopped as she noticed a man greet them, he was the most charming man Kyne had ever seen. She even felt herself blush, but she managed to fight it off. For a moment Kyne was a little scare had the man used Voodoo on her? after a moment's thought, she decided that no, he had not. Still she was a little unsettled as part of her wanted to see him again, even though she knew practically nothing about him.

As Elizabeth talked abut meeting this Alzis, Kyne sighed, "Another Voodoo user? Can i stab her?" she said. her tone was serious so it was hard for one to tell if she was joking or not....

There was another girl. She was not Cyrssa. She always screamed in pain. Cyrssa can not recall when she got here or if she was even here at all. Was this the future? the past? the present?

She could not tell if this was past-tense, now, or yet to be.....but still.... there was a little comfort in the thought of being not alone.

Jason

Jason wiped the blood off his cheek. "I dont care who the hell he was. he is gone now, and as far as i'm concerned that's all that matters. Let's get some rest for the night and search for the fairy girl in the morning..." he was pissed, but he was also concerned. Whoever that person was...the most disturbing thing about him was that he had no music...or at least..somehow it was hidden from Jason....either way, the thought was bit disturbing.

Elizabeth couldn't tell if Kyne was serious or joking but she decided to just wing it. "You can try but I stabbed her once a while back, found out that stories of her being immortal were true and I ended up staying in the hospital for a month." she stated giving the hybrid a grin, ignoring the glare that she was getting from Alzis for reminding her of that incident. Once Celestia demanded Alzis to teach everything that she knew Alzis kept a calm demeanor. "I take it she already learned from you right?" Alzis asked the chaos mage, only for Elizabeth to respond back. "Oh I only taught her skills that she already knew and as for thanks she stole my underwear and beat up a dragon that wanted to be a demon that was annoying me. Than the bard shot it to a bloody pulp." Alzis gave the English woman a confused expression over the answer she was given but shook her head. Right now she didn't need to deal with that woman's brand of insanity.

"I will teach you what you want to know but right now I rather not do anything with that petty dabbler of shoddy magic in the room." she said pointing to Elizabeth, getting a middle finger from the mage. "After all it would be a shame for me to kill her after all the trouble you went through dragging that no good thief into this realm." ignoring the "sod off" from Elizabeth. Once Crowe introduce himself Elizabeth smiled. "Thanks for the complement mate. I wonder is being easy on the eyes something that all bards have or is it just you and the cinnamon roll on our team?" she stated putting her elbows on the table she as she rested her head on her palm, giving the bard the mischievous grin. "As for me I just go where ever the synchronicity highway takes me, experience what life has to throw at me." Her grin grew. "So far this war alliance is a rather mix bag to me since I'm more interested being a big damn heroine and saving an elf that was kidnapped by a bunch of tosses in furry themed power armor. But being in the same room with both a charming man like yourself and an equally charming woman who sitting right next to me makes this a fair deal on my book."

Tessy was almost through with making her blush finally disappear when Elizabeth caused it to come back. In all honestly other than Elizabeth obviously flirting with Crowe she really has no idea what is going on. The woman who made the emotionless girl who claims to be string wanted to bring Elizabeth to her, but now she acts like doing so was a mistake since both she and Elizabeth fight constantly, there is the thief who looks almost like a corpse who can turn himself into a black mist and seems to have powers like Elizabeth, the teen age girl who everyone claims is a demon but she personally doesn't see her as such, if anything Tessy thinks she's fits more closely with a cat than a demon. Than there is the old and muscular man who seems to have two names and owns an army while helping children and the three woman who are goddesses that are with a cursed woman who can't die. It's just one strange event after another and Tessy is thinking on whether or not she would finally go insane from all of this. "I have a feeling that normalcy for me is now gone forever." Tessy sighed at the thought. How Elizabeth and Kyne are able to endure all of this is a wonder to the woman who was comfortable on simply treating sick and injured people while helping her sister raise the family.

Alzis faked a cough to get everyone's attention, the fate members already entering the portal. "Right we can all talk later after we leave this lounge and enter the hotel." with those words she walked to the portal and vanished. Selene spoke to both Elizabeth and Adwith. "If you two want me and my sisters can help you two out with your cloths cause having them all torn up and covered in dirt and blood is going to be very suspicious to most people." Elizabeth wanted to say that she didn't need their help but so far there was no way for her to change her cloths so she muttered an agreement, Hecate was the next one to speak. "You also mention this elf before and people in armor that kidnapped her. This is a wild guess but would those armored individuals be members of the Ahmarhan?"

Elizabeth hide the look of shock well as she gave them a blank look. "Never heard of this Ahmarhan thing, what is an Ahmarhan? some sort of continent or city for a far away land?" the crone turned to the bards. "Tell us bards since the mage here isn't going to corporate on normal occasions can you both find out where this Cryssa is? I have a feeling that you would make some people here very happy if you do know of her whereabouts." the crone smiled as she said those words. Tessy was obviously interested on the crone's words and looked at the two bards hopefully that they can somehow help her on finding Cryssa. Elizabeth glared at the older sister but soon turned to the bards to hear their respond to her question. Most people were to preoccupied with awaiting for the bard's responses that they ignored Alzis calling out for them to get inside the hotel.

[Contamenesia]

Crowe

Crowe chuckled, it was obvious she was playing with him, though he didnt really much mind. He also got a sense that there was a connection between her and the red-skinned beauty that sat next to her. If that was the case, perhaps he should put more focus on flirting with both of then at the same time....

However, Crowe put those thoughts aside when one of three goddesses asked if he could help rescue someone from the Ahmarhan. "Look, i highly doubt the Ahmarhan would kidnap an elf. And if they did, I'd rather not go on some suicide mission. Even my strongest song would not compare the likes of them. Also me and the King arent exactly on good terms at the moment. Seems even my charm has its limit. If i knew any better, I'd think she has a secret crush...or something like that..." he folded his arms, now serious. Though in his mind he recalled the time he had chatted with her. The King was toughest wall he ever encountered. She is the only person of whom his charms and allure had no effect. Which was a bummer, because he had hoped to add a member of the Ahmarhan to the list...

Fauna

Fauna frowned, "He is right about one thing, the Ahmarhan wouldnt kidnap an elf. i cant see any reason they would confront any elf outside of warning them, recruiting them, or...eliminating them....unless...are you sure it was an elf and not an Alveranian or a Gurotian? Just because they have pointed ears doesnt make them elves. But if that is the case, then i think iknow where this girl might be. i can even take you there if you wish...but the trip wouldn't be pleasant."

She turned to see Crowe raising his eyebrow at her, "What? I'm only doing my purpose. I doubt anyone can take that girl without their consent. there is a better chance of them letting her go if i go with them...if they dont want us to retrieve her, then they will likely just kill everyone here right now...." she paused for moment, but nothing happened. "I think thats an okay on their part. They havent killed us yet."

Celestia

Celestia took one last look at the cursed girl who was still unconscious in the corner, then she followed Alzis through the portal. "No more waiting. Celestia will take you to the Void and you can teach her there, but Celestia will not wait any longer." she said, emotionlessly. Celestia had more skills to learn, more parts of existence to explore, to further achieve the goal Apox had given her. She would not allow any more delay...

Jason

Jason wiped the blood off his cheek. "I dont care who the hell he was. he is gone now, and as far as i'm concerned that's all that matters. Let's get some rest for the night and search for the fairy girl in the morning..." he was pissed, but he was also concerned. Whoever that person was...the most disturbing thing about him was that he had no music...or at least..somehow it was hidden from Jason....either way, the thought was bit disturbing.

The rest of the group nodded, each being led to their room by individual fairies. All of them had rooms of their own, but it connected into a large open living area. Fairies spacial magic made this large room fit in a small space that one bedroom would normally fit in. “If you’re friends to the petunia family then you’re friends to us. Plus we wouldn’t mind if you told us what happened to the other Petunia sister. We’re a little worried about her…” Spoke the innkeeper, who then left them in the room. “You kids have fun.”

Aura moved over to Jason. “Thanks again for saving me…” She spoke. “Though… You could have just handed me over to the fairy and then been with your family… what made you decide not to?” She asked.
