Guilds Role-Play

First topic message reminder :

[ATTN: ALL]

It is a beautiful day, around three in the afternoon, the whole of the region suffering from rather strong winds. It is warm and sunny outside, until the wind blows when it is somewhat chilly. The clouds float on by with the wind's direction, giving the blue sky a bit of variation in design. The towns and cities bustle with busy citizens, Guild Hall doors open and close as business concludes and begins for various members and of course, the streets and halls are also busy with chatter--as it would seem that although things are the same today as they would be on any other day, there is one thing that every living person has in common today.

Everyone that is willing to talk about it seems to have this feeling...a feeling of wrongness. Today feels different, somehow, in some way, though no one is certain as to why this is so. Some are mildly worried, others simply casting it off as just a weird phase. Many have approached the Guilds that are local to them, inquiring if anything can be done it. This has led everyone to realize that even magic casters have felt these odd feelings in their guts, though they seem not to know of its cause or how to make the feeling go away. Everyone has been uneasy since they woke from their beds this morning, but they day still continues on, as if the global feeling did not exist...

[ATTN: Kaimele]--Terrenia City, Crye Estate; 4:30--

The dancer, Clementina, is sitting in a seat as the others dance about her and Reese cannot help but notice that the girl seems mildly distracted. Hardly content, though it could be due to the recent events.

Despite the strange pulse that knocked everyone back, as well as the sudden shift and absence of the storm, Lord Crye spoke of continuing the party for the rest of the evening, which is just lovely. Reese loves parties. A lot.

The man approaches the dancer with a smile. His long, pink hair wave about his shoulders and his rich clothing which is fine clothing to be sure, but much more plain and simplistic in comparison to the others present at this event. One can only tell of the fine quality of his clothing if they understand the materials that they are made of.

He has an angular face with dark, caramel skin and well-manicured nails. His eyes are a bright yellow-orange and this white clothing makes his hair, skin, and eyes stand out a bit more with their color.

"Lovely Clementina! Lovely to meet you! I am Reese and I would love to have a chance to dance with you." Reese says cheerily, "Though I will warn you--my dancing is terrible."

He holds out his hand to help her stand, and as he does so, a tattoo is revealed on his arm, pink in color to match that of his hair. The mark matches the very same one that is on the temple of Lord Crye: A form of musical notes that touch each other in a circular pattern to make a star.

Clementina watches a man approach her after the shock has calmed down. She is thankful for the break, it gave her ankle a chance to rest. She can tell he is dressed for the party. She recognizes him from passing by in town, but has never been this close to him before. She loves the color of his eyes and cannot help but gaze into them. She can feel her cheeks flush. He is really good looking, even more this close up. “It is a pleasure to meet you as well Mr. Reese. It will be and honor to dance with you.”

She takes his hand and notices the tattoo on it. It is the same that Lord Cyre and the director had although the color is different. She wonders if it symbolizes something among the nobles. She stand and tests out her ankle, relieved that it is fine. “Don’t worry Mr. Reese, anyone can learn to dance. All you need is a little rhythm.”

As Clementina gets up to dance with him, he takes her hand and walks her out to the edge of the dance floor. "Please, call me just Reese. Calling me mister makes me feel old."

He laughs a little and then begins their dance. Although his dancing is indeed, rather sad in comparison to most in the room, he does still have some rhythm. Some. They dance until the faster song that was already near its end finishes and then a slow piece begins.

As the dance is slowed from the romantic song, Reese demonstrates his grace. There are girls at the tables watching intensely, clearly watching him more than they are the dancer. He ignores them completely.

Instead, his eyes remain on Clementina and as their slow, romantic dance continues, he looks at her, his eyes roaming her face with intrigue as he says, "I rode on the back of a flying bird, once."

She was expecting the worse when Reese brings her onto the dance floor. However his dancing was not at all horrible. In a way she is thankful. Being this close to him is somewhat distracting. The song ends and changes to a slower one. He makes no move to bring her back though. Instead he holds her closer, respectively so and dances the slow song with her as well.

She can feel her heart pounding, who wouldn’t. Here is a gorgeous younger man dancing with her. He could have any other lady, but his eyes are on her. She wonders how he would react if he met Kaimele instead of Clementina. She feels his eyes on hers when he said the random thing. It took her a moment because she thought she misheard. “That must have been amazing, the fastest thing I have ever ridden was a horse.”

"Oh, it was amazing,” Reese says, "And before, that was always my conversation starter, but now, it will be that I have danced with the Lady Clementina."

They are dancing more and then suddenly, there is a rose between their clasped hands as they are dancing. It's an orange one, but the thorns seem to be removed so as to prevent any harm.

"You know, I bet you are all the more lovely in person." Reese says, as if they aren’t talking face to face at all.

Clementina laughs at his response. “I have to admit it is an unusual way to break the ice. I do thank you for the compliment. I certainly hope that after tonight it will mean more than it does now.” They dance some more before she notices an orange rose in their hands. How odd is that? Wow she really must be distracted. She didn’t even notice anyone place it there.

His next comment threw her for a loop. Is he asking her if they could meet outside the party? Or does he somehow suspect. “Why Reese, are you asking me out on a date?” She winks at him laughing lightly. Inside though she is squealing. Relax guys ask Clementina out all the time, why is this he so different?

"Well, of course I am." Reese says, "I want to meet the real you, some day. This filter is lovely, but I do love a good mystery of what you really look like."

With that, he shrugs as the dance continues, "Part of me imagines you as a blonde. Or maybe even deep blue, piercing eyes and vibrant green hair that is cut short."

"But that's just rude talk, my apologies,” He continues, "All that matters is who you are. I can tell that despite the filter, you are still fully yourself."

Kaimele is stunned, everyone loves Clementina. No one ever offered to meet the real her before. For a brief moment she drops the façade. Until he begins to make his guesses. This is the closest she has looked to her real self. Sure her black hair is up and looks like a wig. She laughs at Reese. “You are a charmer aren’t you? And you are right, I am the same person on and off the dance floor.” She chastises herself. He is a nobleman, they are supposed to be charming. After the party, Kaimele could walk past him on the street and he would not even pay any attention. She will have to do just that just to make her point.

"I do try,” He admits, "Though I must say, I am quite excited. I've only known Lord Crye for....a year? Yet, he's invited me of all the people to his luscious party. And, of all things, invited me to start a guild with him. I just can't believe it. How long have you known the Cryes?"

Clementina actually stutter steps when she hears him say the word guild. The markings must be the guild tattoos. “Everyone know of the Cyre’s, but this is my first time meeting Lord Cyre. Lady Cyre, I only met a few days prior. I was hired for entertainment, although I feel as if I am the one being entertained.”

"Oooohh,” He replies, pretending not to notice her response, "Fascinating. It's as if fate wished for us to meet. See there? We must become friends, else we will upset Lady Fate. She's not someone that you want to make angry."

She can only shake her head. “There you go with the charm again.” There is a pause. “You seem to like challenges. I would like to propose one to you. After the party, I promise I will be in town, not as Clementina. If you can find me and charm me, then you will have your chance. Be careful as you will only have one chance.”

The song ends and as they stop moving, he lifts up his right hand and balls into a fist before his chest with a gesture of determination. "I accept." H says dramatically.

With that, he readies to escort her back to a table, but he hesitates, "Did you wish to sit, now, or did you have other dances to attend to? I probably shouldn't try to keep you all to myself."

She cannot believe she said that. She has never offered to meet anyone as Kaimele. It takes away from the mystique of Clementine. She initially takes his hand before stopping. “I will wait, if I don’t get any invites then I will join you.”

"Oh, yay!" He says, gleeful, "I do hope we can speak again. I'll wait for you." As he is about to walk away, he takes her hand and winks, "Should you need me in the future..."

He closes his eyes and hums a soft note that falls in key with the music that the orchestra is just starting. Then, a glowing music note appears in the air in front of his body, turning into a deep shade of green. His eyes open and he plucks the music note out of the air after it has solidified from its liquidy appearance into a flat metallic appearance.

Holding it out to her, he says "You'll be able to summon me with this. If you break it, I'll know where you are. This way, I'm only a song away."

Clementina watches in amazement as he creates the 1/8 note out of thin air. She looks down at it and back at him. “Thank you so much.” This evening has been quite strange. She slips the note in her pocket for now.

[Attn: Jacobi, Open] #guild_key
--Ferrum Coordinator Guild Hall, UMS; 4:25PM--

Chiron accepted the mysterious key, unsure what to think of the object and the man who gave it to him. He felt the key's weight and texture, guessing that it must be older than himself. It could make for an interesting knicknack, but Chiron had a feeling he would be utilizing this key later on. He looked to Jacobi, vaguely smiling out of politeness.

"Uhh...thanks, Jacobi. Do you mind telling me who sent you to bring this key to me? I have no idea what this is for, myself."

by **xenolion** 21st November 2015, 4:24 pm

Jacobi

{Attn: Chiron, Open}--Ferrum Coordinator Guild Hall, UMS; 4:20PM--

#guild_key

Jacobi waited him to take the key. “Well it was Mia who put me on the mission, but it is a combined Guild mission. Since I was chosen, it must be serious. Well I best be off, one more thing.” Jacobi flashes his scariest grin. “Don’t tell anyone else anything about the key, I am not responsible for the consequences.” There was a part of him that wanted to open his eye, but the White Cross pansy probably wouldn’t be able to handle it.

He walks away and pulls the list out of his pocket. Off to the next person, he takes a look at the list. One more person and one more key, Fuyu of Walsh. He does not think that there are any trains leaving any time soon. He knows that Rodimus would be happy to put him up for the night. However, the guild looks a bit full. An inn it is. He grabs his bag and goes to the nearest inn.

by **JerriLeah7** 30th November 2015, 4:10 pm

[ATTN: Kaimele]
--Terrenia City, Crye Estate; 5:20PM--

An hour passes and the party continues. Many of the guests are quick to ask if the party will last all night, since the storm is over. After all, now that it is safe outside, there is no need to keep the guests overnight. However, Lord Crye already guaranteed a full night's stay and a party that lasts until they are all awake, so he states his intention to keep those plans to the crowd of dancers between songs.

Lady Crye has already made her way up to her father and informed him of Clementina's powers, which has sparked his interest greatly. However, she has been dancing with many of their guests and he pushes away his excitement and intrigue so that she may enjoy the dances and continue to do her job without interruption. After all...the amount she's getting paid for this night is so high, the woman probably won't know what to do with the coins when this is over.

Due to this and more, he allows the dancer to continue her games of dances with various men and ladies across the floor as songs fly by. Of course, she does get a few breaks in, bless her, but so many have asked for her hand to dance that she's probably going crazy. When he decides that she might get overwhelmed, he moves his way across the floor with ease as the others pull away from his large size. Bending down to her to see her levelly, he smiles.

"Lady Clementina, you must be tired. Why don't you have a seat and I'll serve you our finest Sanshen soup with blossom petals. We also have various beverages that you can enjoy." He says.

Escorting her with his big arm, he marvels at the smallness of the small girl as he leads her over to a chair and beckons for some food to be brought. Many of the other guests are also eating, but not all. Some just pick at the food here and there between dances. He smiles at her jovially as he looks about the ballroom with contentment. He knows that he has definitely won his competition, for sure. No doubts at all, despite the loss of the sweet girl hours before.

"I also want to thank you for helping my daughter with her ankle," Lord Crye says more quietly after the food is placed on the table between them, "Perhaps I should add a little to your entertainment payment for your services. Quite a talent that you have there."

[ATTN: Lark]
--Timeless--

Finally, stepping away, Lark's mother returns to the fountain as she looks sadly downwards into its reflective surface. She knows that it is time for him to go. The pulse will wake him, soon. She look back up at him and her eyes say that the time for farewells has come.

"Farewell, my son. I will be watching, ever proudly. When you wake, you will feel the pulse of magic through you, but you needn't worry. It is good magic. You will also see a lady in the air, performing a small miracle. Her name is Ryla and you must stay with her. She will take you to the door." She says.

More tears flow from her eyes and she aches as she misses him before he's even gone. Then, she waves to him and blows him a kiss as the pulse of magic brings him back into reality and away from the spirit realm where his mother watches him.

[ATTN: Ryla, Lark, Ryushi, Chiron, Janos, Char]
--Ferrum Coordinator Guild Hall, UMS; 5:20PM--

The crowds are spreading about, happy to be free and many people begin to pour out of the Ferrum Coordinator Guild Hall, as well. Time is confusing and chaotic and as Ryla speaks about the need for a restroom, Jonah is quick to get her there through the Guild Hall and shows a delightful and handy knowledge in knowing his way about the Guild Hall's premises.

As Ryla takes her leave from the crowd, a task that is not only difficult but loud. So many people tried to follow her, touch her, and bombard her with questions. Diggle has already separated, looking after the body of Sheridan and caring for it with the utmost sadness and care. Jonah saw him crying not too long ago.

The train won't be back in working order for another good time, considering the damage they will have to fix. Luckily, they do have extra train cars, but the engine will still need work before they get it moving again. They really do need to start making more trains...and train tracks. Jonah sighs as his mind rambles on and he finally realizes that the Ferrum Coordinator Guild Master is staring at him. The man clears his throat.

"Oh! Sir Rodimus Penn, a pleasure to meet you!" Jonah says with surprise, "What can a small mage like myself do for the great Guild Master?"

Rodimus looks at him blankly for a moment, clearly in a pissy mood. He's been moving about thanking people and apologizing to others...it's been quite chaotic. Several people still look injured, so perhaps that is what the man is going to ask him for. Jonah can't count the number of times he's been asked to join a Guild due to his ability. Perhaps this is the same situation.

"Where is she?" Rodimus asks bluntly, his hands on his waist.

Jonah blinks, and then realization settles in. "Oh! Ryla! She's in the bathroom, sir. I think she'll be right out. Sorry, Sir. I was uncertain of what you meant for a minute, there."

He looks down at Jonah and the healer feels like the guild master's shadow over him is somehow growing and becoming darker. It's kind of scary. No, really scary. Gulping, he looks up at the Guild Master and forces a smile, "Anything else I can do for you, Sir?"

"No. I'm waiting for her." Rodimus says, but he turns around and yells across the bustling and loud guild hall, "SHUT IT! I want QUIET IN HERE."

The Guild Hall falls silent and the moody man turns back around, huffing to himself and mumbling under his breath. He's clearly irritable, but who can blame him? The stressful situation and the sudden onslaught of such powerful magic is enough to put anyone on edge. Plus, it's Rodimus Penn that's going to have to fill out the paperwork on this mess and report it to the Council. They are not going to be pleased...

"What's her Guild?" Rodimus asks grumpily.

"Ryla? She's uh...Sheherazade, if I'm not mistaken." Jonah replies as Ryla comes out of the bathroom next to him. Jonah smiles at her sheepishly and offers to put his arm around her for comfort. He wouldn't blame her at all for being terrified of this big man like he is. If she is, that is. She's pretty powerful, so maybe she doesn't have to be.

"Rodimus Penn." Rodimus introduces himself, holding out his hand to shake hers, "Quite a gift you have there. I've never heard of anyone in Sheherazade that's both S Rank and has your particular skill or description. Are you registered?"

After an hour of people herding about and getting people to calm the hell down, Nadleeh finally makes her way to the damn Guild Hall. It's finally clearing out and people are scattering and going about their own way. Many of the people from the train are now looking for an inn or other forms of transportation so that they can get to where they want to go.

However, when Nadleeh makes it to the Guild Hall, many of the guild members are bustling about and cleaning out the cots and blankets that were previously set up for refugees from the storm. They are all just moving about and being rather chaotic--until, that is, a big man yells at them and pretty much tells everyone to shut up. She looks at him and he does, indeed, fit the description of the Guild Master. Great.

She's ready to look around and figure out where she's supposed to be going and what not, but...she lost he guild mates in the crowd. With a groan, she looks about for Ryushi or the others, but so far, she's had no luck. Finally, she accidentally bumps into two guys that are arguing over something. The guy she bumps into turns around just as his guild mate calls him "Janos," so she guesses that this must be his name.

"So sorry," Nadleeh says, "I didn't mean to bump into you like that."

The man he was speaking with scoffs and shakes his head, "Watch where you're going. And no, we do not give a rat's ass about the Viorian scriptures, man. Go back to your church."

With a sigh, Nadleeh hugs her holy book to her chest, "Firstly, I am a woman and secondly, I am here for my Guild to do a joint Guild Quest with Ferrum. Don't assume things and please, don't be so rude."

[ATTN: Rat, Seere]
--UMS Border Territory, Targon State; White Cross Guild Hall; 5:20PM--

Whip is stunned by the wave of magic. She didn't expect something like...that. Sitting up in her bed, she looks out the window to find that the storm is gone. The sudden quiet is rather jarring and, to a degree, spooky. What happened to the storm? What kind of magic could have removed an entire hurricane from the land? Wow.

She ponders on it for a few moments longer and then remembers that she's naked. With a smile, she turns back towards Seere with a sultry pose and playfull asks: "Wanna go again?"

After an hour of "exercises" and breaks between, Whip finally showers and gets dressed, feeling much better. Of course, now that the storm is gone, he probably wouldn't feel the need to remain in the Guild Hall any longer, so the thought makes her a little sad.

With a grumbling tummy, she looks up at Seere and says, "I don't know about you, but I'm famished. Why don't we go find something to eat? I bet I will have a lot of work to do, now that the refugees are free to go. Ugh, cleaning up after refugees is a pain."

Guilds Role-Play - Page 15 Post_s10

[ATTN: Nel, Chi]
--UMS Territory; Council Hall, Council State; 5:20PM--

Once the pulse comes through, the Council members immediately find their way back to the council meeting hall, bickering and chattering for half an hour over the matter of the mysterious pulse. Indeed, several other bounty hunters pop into the meeting unannounced, making their own way into the conversation to provide theories as to how the storm could have mysteriously come to an end, as well as to the source of the pulse of magic.

It isn't long before Thanis brings everyone to silence. He's sick of the confusion and chaos and usually, the Unfortunate 13 are nowhere near this bad, but with the added guests that burst into the meeting and the frantic disbelief...it's just chaos. Thanis doesn't like chaos.

"Okay, okay. All bounty hunters have been given a Quest during the storm. The danger of the outside is over, so you can go about your business." Thanis finally calls out, "The matter of the storm's sudden end and the pulse of magic that caused it will be under investigation and as soon as we have answers, you will have answers. Move along."

Another half an hour passes and, after a few conferences with a few telepathy magi that he has connections with, Thanis returns back to the meeting hall where the other council members are awaiting for him. It would seem that Chi stayed behind, so as to receive news of what he learned, so Nel is also here, waiting to begin her Quest.

Well, Nel is trustworthy enough. He doesn't mind sharing at least this much information that he currently has with a non-council member. For now. He clears his throat as he enters and they all fall respectfully silent as he speaks.

"The only information I was able to gather from my connections is that the pulse was caused by an S Rank Guild Member who stopped the storm to save some refugees that were caught up into the madness of the winds. I don't yet know the identity or the Guild affiliation of this particular Mage, but I do think we should keep our eyes open."

Marcus scowls, "I don't recall any S Ranked magi with that particular kind of power. Guilds must have their members registered! Why haven't we--"

"Marcus." Thanis says coldly, clearly not amused. "I am looking into it. Relax."

[ATTN: Sylmeria, Nymeria, Xiax, Ryla] #guild_key
--Infinity Edge Guild Hall; Ventya State - UMS; 5:20pm--

Xiax is at her open door after the storm has stopped, but Ilyana hasn't noticed him. Instead, she's looking out her window, looking for some way to find the source of the great, white light that had poured into the room. The pulse had knocked her from her feet and she was amazed at how easily it caught her off guard. She didn't even sense it coming. She always senses magic coming her way.

Knocking on the door frame, Xiax asks, "Am I interrupting?"

Ilyana turns back to look at Xiax and shakes her head reassuringly, "Not at all. What can I do for you?"

Xiax looks at her apprehensively, "Ilyana, do you have a moment? I don't want to interrupt if you've got guild business to do."

"Sure. Take a seat," Ilayan replies, "I was just marveling at the miraculous absence of the storm. I didn't even see that one coming, to be honest."

Xiax flinches and stammers a bit and then closes the door behind him before he takes a seat. "It's kind of about that. And what we talked about before."

Turning around more completely, Ilyana leans up into the window that she was just gazing out of, her butt seated into the window's frame and against the day's new light. She crosses her arms, but shows no expressions. She can tell something is off.

"I'm listening," Ilyana says.

Oh, crap. I've pissed her off. Xiax thinks to himself, taking her crossed arms and neutral tone more negatively than he probably should. Ilyana really does look nice with the light from the window hitting her like that. But he probably shouldn't be daydreaming anything about her right now and get to the point. That's probably for the best.

"Do you..." Xiax pauses, contemplating, "...know what happened that made this storm stop? I've kind of got an idea, but you have more experience with magic and stuff."

"I'm baffled," Ilyana says with a shrug, "Can't say that I do. What's your theory?"

"I wouldn't really call it a theory, I mean it's kind of more complicated than that." Xiax replies, "Did Kennot say anythign about how my power works?"

With a raised eyebrow, Ilayana shakes her head, "No, not just yet. He's still analyzing. Why don't you just take a breath and tell me what's on your mind?"

Xiax sighs, "You mentioned...you offered to help me. To help me train my power so I could control it and it kind of touches on that a bit. I don't know that I'm going to be able to continue training with you guys. Has it really only been a day...? God, that's fucked up."

Xiax waits for a second, but when seeing no response from Ilyana, he continues, "I've been offered training by the same people that fixed the storm. It's kind of complicated."

"And who fixed the storm?" Ilyana asks, intrigued.

"Well, it wasn't me." Xiax says, "Is it alright if I take off my shirt?"

Ilyana has decided that this conversation has kind of gone off the deep end. First he knows who's stopped the storm, and now he's somehow spoken to the person who stopped the storm, and now he wants to strip...okay.

"Um, sure." Ilyana says, confused. Did the pulse make him crazy?

Xiax lifts up his shirt and pulls it over his head and reveals the tattoo on his upper chest region on his left side, just over his heart. Ilyana looks at it closely and wonders what if he's going to be joining a new Guild. She's never seen this Guild tattoo before.

Xiax says, "They--it, I guess it's it--calls itself the Ninth. And it's the one that stopped the storm. And when it did, it made contact with me. I'm still not really sure how that all came about, Ilyana, but that's pretty much the gist of it."

Ilyana frowns, "So it's a new Guild that's forming and they contacted you to join them? Strange, how did they offer you to join the guild so suddenly, in my Guild Hall? And who added the tattoo? None of this is making any sense."

Xiax goes to speak and his mouth moves silently as he struggles to find the words necessary to answer as he waves his finger kind of pointlessly for a minute. "I don't think it's a Guild...but, is it a Guild tattoo? I'm kind of confused. They are supposed to hurt, right?"

He pokes the tattoo on his chest and Ilyana facepalms. She's so confused. He really did get off the crazy train--maybe the pulse of light knocked him on his ass and messed with his head. It could just have easily been a dream and well...maybe he's had this tattoo for a while and just doesn't remember that.

"Uh, no." Ilyana says, "Guild Tattoos don't hurt. They're magical."

Xiax looks kind of pale for a minute, "I wonder if that's why I started blacking out or if it was all the light, or...I'm not really sure if it's a Guild tattoo, Ilyana. But that's not the--no--well, it's kind of...at first, I thought it was this demon, but it's not...it's kind of like.........well, fuck, there just isn't a way for me to explain that. Without seeing it, I don't think I can explain it. Why do I keep seeing that mental image of that man in his bathrobe?! Why cant he just put some pants on?!"

Ilyana laughs, finally deciding that this is, in fact, just a dream that he had. She'll just...let it go. This isn't something he can really think clearly about and with the rush of the pulse of magic and the sudden glee from everyone over the storm's end, there's just too much chaos going on right now to add onto it.

"Okay, well...I'll at least train you while I can," Ilyana says, humoring him, "That's really all I can do. When the uh...Ninth people or persons decide that they want to train you, then they can step in, if that's what you wish. For now, you're still my responsibility."

"Well, I'm kind of okay with training today, I've had too much of that. It's kind of confusing, but this Ninth can kind of warp time and predict the future and if I stick around too long, it kind of sounds like if I stick around too long, bad stuff will happen or I might die from training."

Ilyana pauses, "I see." It would seem he just really wants to leave. Is he afraid that they won't let him leave without some fantastic reason of cosmic power or destiny? Maybe all just a story, a tall story to escape. Poor homeless man has been homeless for far too long.

"No, no, Ilyana, don't take it like that." Xiax says, "It's not like I'm just afraid or that I'm trying to make up an excuse or anything--it--it really happened. I mean, I was seriously thinking that hanging around for a while would be nice with the whole Guildy thing going on, but now that you're telling me that this might be a Guild tattoo, I can't have two of those, right? I mean, I want to make sure that this isn't a Guild tattoo, but that sneaky dude might totally have just screwed me over."

"The bath towel man?" Ilyana asks, disbelieving.

"It wasn't really a bath towel! It's like a weird skirt....half dress--the lower half of a dress! And he had these weird, glowing tattoos all over his body and he spoke with multiple voices!"

Ilyana blinks. After a pause, she says, "Well, that's not an established Guild tattoo. Whoever gave it to you can't consider it a legal Guild tattoo until they've registered their Guild legally and have met the Guild requirements. So you're good to join another Guild--at least for the time that it takes to get a Guild started. For your information."

Before Xiax can reply, a loud pop can be heard and Ilyana stands up straight, pulling away from the window as she realizes that the light from the window is no longer white. Instead, the light has become colored and tinted in the hue of a deep and dim yellow. Looking out through the glass, she sees a large barrier over the Guild Hall training field...it seems to be going completely around the whole building.

Following the barrier down to the ground, she finds dozens of dark figures standing at its base on the inside, forming along its circular base with still, statue-like, and ominous foreboding. One of the dark figures, which is upon a horse (unlike the others) holds up a flag with the Dark Ascension flag held up high above its head. It also has a circle of glowing runes circling it's body with a wide birth, glowing a deep shade of green and purple and moving slowly about the flagbearer as if orbiting him.

"Oh, shit." Ilyana hisses. "Shit!"

"What?" Xiax gets up from his chair and comes towards the window, peeking out. Holding his hand out feebly, he looks up and says, "I fucking hate you right now! Can only give me like...five minutes!"

Ilyana doesn't even get to say anything else as several of the GUild members burst into the room through the doorway with looks of panic. They know that the Guild is here, but not why. She can hear the sudden rise in noise and chaos out in the main hall and she dreads what's about to happen. However....first thing's first.

"Guild Master! The--" One of the guys that came in begins.

"No. Quiet." Ilyana says sternly, "And listen to me. Blake, you get everyone together in the Guild Hall. Now. No exceptions, you get everyone in there as soon as you can and as quickly as you can. Keep people calm and keep people quiet."

One nods his head and leaves, but he's quickly replaced by another Guild Member and Ilyana looks at her with the same level of sternness, "Get the top Magi and put them at the entrances to guard. I want as little movement and sound as possible to be visible from outside."

She quickly leaves and she finally turns to the guy who had tried to speak from before. "Get Gren. Have him bring Symeria and Nymeria to my office--he'll have to teleport into therapy to get Symeria....that room's closed off during sessions."

With that, the last guy leaves and Ilyana rushes to the door and closes it with a swift slam and she then comes forward, close to Xiax and looks more afraid and serious than she ever has in a very long time. She clutches at her neck, sticking her hand down her shirt and pulling out a massive key on a chain that was hidden underneath it.

At the end of a chain is a long, metallic key that is about six inches in length and made of a dark, almost black metal that most would never have seen before. She pulls it off of her neck as she is speaking to Xiax frantically, all the while her mind is rushing with wild thoughts in her head and scolding herself at how idiotic it is to give this to someone like Xiax--he's freaking insane.

"Take this right now, Xiax. I need you to take it and hide it. Keep it safe and guard it with your life." Ilyana says with fear, "Gren's going to take you three out of here, okay? You're going to be okay, but you can't tell anyone about this damn key."

"Um, okay...." Xiax takes the key, while also being careful not to touch Ilyana. As he makes contact with the key, he freezes up, his eyes losing focus as if he is looking out into another world. For a moment, Ilyana thinks that he is about to have a seizure, but it only lasts for a moment before he seems to be back to normal.

"I know you're in a hurry right now, but...why do you have a key to pandora's box?" Xiax asks her.

"If I keep it safe, no one can use the damn key." Ilyana says, as if it were obvious, "Now, it's your job. We can't let Dark Ascension get their hands on it!"

Ilyana is confused, wondering how he knows of this stuff--but there's no time. How does he know the key is important? How does he know it has a dark purpose? She wishes she had the time to really talk this out with the nutter. "How do you know...what do you know?"

Xiax is almost dumbfounded for a moment. As he had touched the key, the symbol on his chest warmed up slightly and he knew, within an instant, just what this key was. And as he did, he also knew something else: Ryla is currently holding a key, too. Through the connection of the keys, the two magi, Xiax and Ryla, see through each other's eyes, pulled into the void for an almost endless moment as they comprehend the gravity of what they have both been given.

[ATTN: Nadia]
--S'venton; Nothern UMS, Targon State; 5:20PM-–

Suddenly, a pulse of light washes into the shelter and a brilliant, white light flashes through the windows. Everyone standing is knocked to their feet and many of the crowd of people are knocked into each other from the chaos. Without a second though, Amelia is quick to move over to Xaroff and lies over him protectively.

The pulse was...crazy strong! What was that? Sache looks confused as he looks over at his guild mates with confusion and intrigue. Theories buzz through his head and it isn't until Attica points it out that he realizes that the storm has come to an end.

"Hey, what happened to the storm?" Attica asks.

Opening up the door, Sache looks out to see that it isn't an illusion. The storm is, in fact, over. Complete calm has washed over the lands and, although everything is still damp and damaged, the storm didn't last long enough to completely abolish the entire town. A few buildings still remain, just barely. He smiles.

Xaroff stands up, pulling Attica with him. It would seem that the force of the wave of magic also woke him from his unconscious state. He looks about confused, but Attica takes his hand, so he simply looks down at her and smiles as she tells him that the storm is over. He nods his head happily and the townsfolk all begin to pour out as they chatter from the confusion.

Once the Guild members are left alone in the shelter with just the Mayor and the Sheriff, the Sheriff holds out his hand and takes the crazy man by the arm after the teleporter lets him stand. The Mayor tells him to take him to the jailhouse--or as close to one as they can get to a jailhouse. The Sheriff then leaves, followed by the teleporter and that leaves just the Quinsenterra crew and the town mayor.

With a quiet thank you, the Mayor leaves, still shaken up by everything. He's not his usual self. He asks them to help with the cleanup of the town, and so Xaroff happily accepts to help without a hesitation or a look of reluctance. He seems so cheerful and Attica asks him if he's okay. He looks at her confused for a moment, and then shrugs.

"Don't remember what happened, so...why wouldn't I be okay? I feel okay." Xaroff asks.

Attica simply says a short "never mind" before moving off to begin helping with the clean up. It takes them about an hour to work their way around the place and getting the last two remaining buildings back into living shape--or at least, as close to living shape as can be.

The Mayor clears them for the job, handing off a payment to each of them, as well as a paper stamped with his town's seal that shows that the Quest has been officially completed. It also marks high satisfaction with their work, which Attica honestly didn't expect, considering the chaos of what had just happened before.

Attica looks up at Nadia with happiness, rocking from side to side with her hands behind her back sweetly as she asks, "Mission accomplished?"

[ATTN: Jacobi]
--Lacrima Inn Lobby, UMS; 5:20PM--

The tall man with navy blue hair and steel grey eyes is staring at Jacobi as he walks into the Inn. he's about 5'8 and lean with the shorter hair length revealing the obvious Walsh guild tattoo on the side of his neck. He is rather nonchalant as he notices the man that enters, recognizing him for who he is immediately.

With an expression of disinterest, his eyes leave Jacobi and instead move back to his drink on the table, pulling up an ale mug and taking a big swig. Another guy with a Walsh tattoo on his face sits down at the table after coming down the stairs where the rooms are.

The Inn owner walks up to Jacobi and smiles her greeting, "Hello! Welcome to the Lacrima Inn and Tavern! Will you be dining, staying the night, or both?"

The man with the Walsh tattoo on the right side of his face looks at Jacobi with interest, but then looks over at his dark haired guild mate as he speaks rather loudly and impatiently after taking a swig of his own drink. "Fuyu, the storm's over. When are we gonna get going?"

by **EphPhoenix** 30th November 2015, 6:21 pm

[Attn: Lark's mother, Ryla and co]

He could see it in her eyes before she said anything or blew him a kiss. His eyes teared up again as they desperately locked on her and tried to drink her in. "Thank you for this..." he choked. "Thank you for everything you ever gave me. Thank you...I don't wanna go...I'll miss you so m--"

He gasped awake as the pulse of power shook through him, the power of it ringing through his body and shaking him to his very soul. "What the hell was that?" he exclaimed with the first thing to real emotion coming out of his mouth in a very long time.

[Attn: Nadleeh, random Ferrum member who's being a dick]

"Hey! Hey!" Janos said cheerfully to his fellow guild member. "How about taking the flaming metal rod out of your ass? Or you could jump on it and have the rod shove up into your brain! A lobotomy might be a better disposition--and healthier for you!" His face never changed, but the self-same fox smile he always wore suddenly seemed sinister, but was then gone as he turned to regard the young woman who had bumped into him.

"Don't mind him," he said, "from his secular perspective, you may as well be a guy because he can't stick his dick in you! Which, frankly speaking, even if you were available you'd be far too good for the likes of him. Sexual frustration's a terrible thing, I hear.

"But I'm so glad you identified yourself!" he continued. "Before this terrible business with godlike magic and freakish hellstorms, I was supposed to be meeting up with you and yours to work together!" He leaned in with a hand to speak confidentially, finishing with a wink, "Personally, you decide to bend those vows a bit and I'll help you with the unwrapping." He then pulled back. "So! Where's the rest of your kin? I'll help direct you to Rodimus and we can get this party started!"

[Attn: Fedra, Open]

Fedra had come for her at some point. Her knocking her had woken her up, for which she had been grateful. Her sleep had been fitful, filled with images of bloodbaths and of fighting Ilyana, Gren, and others. Worse, the latter seemed to be holding a quiet amusement, like a joke that was being played on them. That scared her to her core.

Her gratitude was short-lived, however, when Fedra revealed she wanted to have their first session. Sylmeria was not feeling in a chatty mood, though she soon realized she was desperate for company to help ward away the fear of the frightful storm outside. To that end, her gratitude returned some as, once in her office, Fedra somehow sealed away the sounds and rumbles of the storm, closing the dreadful sight of it away behind flowery curtains.

She took in the room. It was designed to be as comforting as possible without being ridiculous. It almost worked for Sylmeria, too, except that she knew what they were here for and all she could feel was dread when thinking about this foreign side of her, let alone talking about it!

Fedra was obviously good at what she did. At first, she let Sylmeria sit in silence, allowing her to accustom herself to the area and build up a sense of her own presence. Psychology 101. Ever since this had happened, Sylmeria had been desperately reading different texts to try and find some way to deal with her condition. Finally, Fedra began opening dialog with Sylmeria, at first talking about nothing, but slowly slipping in more meaty questions as she tried to get a feel for whom she was dealing with. As previously stated, a pro.

They were cut off, though, as a pulse of more magical energy than she'd ever felt before flashed through her. In that instant, she'd felt the Valkyrie stir, bidden awake by such impossible magic, and in that moment, she knew that only something of godlike power could be responsible, perhaps through a conduit, and then she felt the Valkyrie's desire and trepidation to face such a force. It took several minutes before Fedra had been able to rouse her, and it was obvious she'd been shaken by the force, as well. Everything within miles of its epicenter would've, as it would have to be that powerful to counter that supernatural storm.

Storm? Wait? How had she known...? From what she'd read in the archives before she'd left home, Valkyrie was an ancient power that did more than just power the user. Up until now, she had believed that maybe she'd only gotten the barbarism of it. But then, there was the permanent knowledge she had of all the weapons she'd come into contact with since--admittedly few as she was very keen to avoid that. Was Valkyrie something more than just wanton barbarism? If so, then how--no. This thinking was very dangerous and going that route...

"Sylmeria? You're drifting again," Fedra's voice cut in. "It's obviously important. Would you...mind sharing? If you're comfortable, that is. There is no forcing and no pressure here."

Sylmeria smiled gratefully. "I...appreciate your respect," she said, honestly meaning it. "I...it's just...I'm not sure..." Before she could say anything else, though, Fedra suddenly got a far off look. A telepathic message? Whatever it was immediately cut their session off and then everything was happening too fast to process.

Kaimele

{ATTN: Open} --Terrenia City, Crye Estate; 5:20PM--

It barely feels like work, Clementina is having so much fun. She is in her element dancing from guest to guest. It is amazing how one party has done so much for her reputation. She has been propositioned by others for future jobs. She gives them her contact information.

She bows to her partner at the end of the song. She walks off the dance floor and waves off the next person. She looks up at Lord Cyre himself leans down to looks into her eyes. He offers her some soup and to serve it to her. She takes his arm. “Thank you Lord Cyre, I would appreciate it.”

He shows her to a table and sits at the same table. “I must thank you again. I don’t think I have danced so much in my life. I am glad I have no plans tomorrow.” His next words make Kaimele’s heart drop. “Lord Cyre, I appreciate the compliment, but all I did was help her to the chair.” She looks at her food stirring the soup. “If I had any real talent, I would have saved the young lady’s life earlier.”

Jacobi

{Attn: Fuyu, Open} --Lacrima Inn Lobby, UMS; 5:20PM--

#guild_key

Jacobi walk up to the bar noticing the two guys from Walsh. One is staring at him as he walks up to the bar. He sees the young lady and smiles. “It appears you have me for both young lady.” He grins at her. “You can have more if you desire.” He leans against the bar as the lady gets his room key. He overhears the Walsh conversation again. He cannot believe his fuckin luck. He takes out the compass and sure enough it pointing right at the table.

He takes the key from the lady and sets the coins on the counter. He takes the mug of ale and walks over to them. “Ain’t going to get too far, the trains are still out. The carriages are probably rented out at this point as well. The last train had a shitload of people in it, and you know how people are when they are panicked. Unless you have a death wish, I recommend staying here. Bandits are going to have fun tonight.” He holds out his hand “Jacobi Rovegno, Valoria S class. I recommend cooling ya heels and waiting until tomorrow. I will even buy the first round.”

(ATTN: Jonah, Open to others around ferrum ish)

With the help of Jonah, Ryla managed to get inside the guild. Although there was a lot of people who either tried to touch them, ask her question or else. She was feeling a bit overwhelmed to be honest. When they finally reach the lady restroom she says ''I'll.... be back...'' And she goes inside of it, inside of one of the restroom, once the door is closed and that she makes sure that nobody is looking... she touches the key and a vision of the same door she saw earlier crossed her mind. Except that now she knew this key was one of the keys that was opening it.

(ATTN : Xiax, Closed) #guild_key #shazeer

(Collab with Methos ;D)

Merely seconds after her vision she was now inside a sort of void space of some sort and felt like someone she knew, but didn't was there. She turned toward him to see who it was and she still looked like she had been crying not long ago. Her eyes were still watery as she looked at him for a good.... awkward thirty seconds of trying to understand what the crap was going on. She then points at him and gasp before suddenly yelling and breaking the silence. ''YOUR EYES ARE GLOWING HOLY CRAP !!!!''

Xiax had to adjust to the sudden change in the world around him. Just a second ago he'd been reaching to take the key from Ilyana and now he was back in the Void. His first thought is that his power must have activated but it doesn't feel that way, but he feels a presence so he turns... well it's not the Ninth, but the other girl whose name he knew. This was Ryla, and she was starting at him, at least till she scared the crap out of him and she freaked out. Xiax took a step back, and averted his eyes from her from habit. "No they're not." Xiax lied lamely.

''They're SOOOO COOL !!! '' She exclaimed, ignoring his lie. Ryla then starred at him some more and said '' Aaah ! Yours is on your heart ! '' She said pointing at his tattoo. ''Also erm... hi ?... How did I manage to make a communication with you... I have NO IDEA... or have a little though... it doesn't make sense, but does. So much weird happening. ...''

Xiax didn't exactly have anywhere to hide, and he was decidely topless too, This is awkward. "I don't know, Ninth didn't say anything about this. I'm not doing it, and.." Xiax paused as he looked at Ryla. "You're not doing it either. Neither of our powers are right, so that can't be it. What exactly are you, I mean were you doing?"

''Um....I went to the... restroom and I believe I'm still in it.... because I felt the key was acting weird and I touched it and got a vision and then boom here. You have one too right ?.... Oh... Right... wasn't supposed to talk about it ish... I hope the scary dude won't know....'' She said looking suddenly a bit anxious thinking back about this intimidating dude.

"Ohhh my god, you where taking a dump!" Xiax blurts out, "I'm so sorry!

Ryla shake her hands to try to clear the misunderstanding. ''No no I just went to poke the key in private... and flee the crowd that was after me for some air.... ''

"I can totally understand that." Xiax didn't like crowds either, they were just too dangerous for him. "Soooo, you're Ryla? Like where exactly are you right now anyway?"

''In the lady restroom of Ferrum Coordinator's guild. '' She answered and then asked him. ''What about you ?...''

"I'm in Ilyana's office." Xiax's suddenly realized the urgency, "Ohh crap! I'm pretty sure Dark Ascension is going to start murdering everyone. I've got to get back!" Xiax looked around quickly, "How the hell do you leave here?"

[color=#00CC66]''Ilyana ?'' The name kinda ringed a bell although she didn't really think it was someone she personally knew. ''And wait Dark ascension ?! They're attacking you ?! '' She asked a bit panicked. ''And I don't know.... maybe... to undo what we did to come here ish ?.... I DUNNO !!!!'' [color]

"What ELSE do they do?!" Xiax said exasperated, totally giving in to the here say and stereotyping about DA. "I'm pretty sure she's trying to hide th--! Where the hell did this key come from?!" Xiax turns to face Ryla and just tosses her the key, "Your key look like this one?"

''Yep !!! '' Ryla said to confirm and then went to shock ''I FELT YOU HAD ONE YO !'' Ryla exclaimed and then added.

"So maybe it's the keys then. Just hold onto it for a second." Xiax said rubbing his beard a moment in ponderous thought. "Ninth really needs to decorate or something, I'm not seeing an exit. Hrmmmm." Crossing both his arms as he turns this way and that to see an exit, "You see anything but the torch?"

''No.... I'll try something. '' Ryla said taking a deep breath. ''HEY !! WE WANT TO GET OUT, BUT WE DON'T KNOW HOW !! NINTH YOU THERE ?!''

Xiax has this weird moment where the Ninth pretty much mind rapes him and leaves a mental memo. He's visually shaken and holds out a hand which quivers slightly. "I think I need that back."

When Ryla looks at him kinda weird for a moment, he makes a 'hand it over kind of gesture' while Xiax says "The key, please."

Ryla then clicks that she was holding his key and her own and gave him back the key. ''Here !! Sorry about that !!''

Xiax closes his hand around the key letting off a relieved sigh. "Ok, to get out we have to really think hard about getting out of here and back to wherever we where. For me that's Infinity Edge, and you the Toilet."

''Okay...before we leave... want me to try and get help sent toward them ?!.... I could say I had a vision or something..... '' Ryla asked wondering.

Xiax blinks, "That's awfully nice of you. Maybe Ilyana can hold out or something for awhile, how far away is Ferrum anyway?"

''Several....hours... but I'll check if some can get there faster !! Promise !!'' Ryla exclaimed. ''Please hang in there okay ?!''

"Se-several hours?" that didn't sound good. "I think I'd better just get back and pray for a miracle." Xiax starts to picture the office then pauses. "Wanna switch keys?"

''Um... nah I need to protect this one ! '' She said with a smile. ''Otherwise a big scary dude might get my skin !....maybe...''

"Ohh, that makes sense." Xiax says, not really sure who the big scary guy is. He started to chew on his thumbnail as he thought for a moment. Ilyanna was totally in a controlled panic; DA was outside, and that could only mean they were gonna kill a bunch of people. If he gave the key to Ryla then the key would be safe, but be wouldn't be able to communicate with her anymore. "Hmmmm."

Ryla tilt her head to the side looking at him. ''What is it ?...''

"I've got a really hard situation right now waiting when I get back." Xiax said spitting out a bit of nail and nibbling it again. "I'm worried that I might die, so I'm wondering if I should give you Ilyana's guildkey to keep it safe."

''Don't say you'll die you won't !!!!! '' Ryla exclaimed right away as she was tired of deaths, she just didn't want to accept it. ''Though I wouldn't mind looking after it, at the same time it'd be our only mean of communication !! ...And... can it even be transported with me I don't know !...''

"Nine kinda gave me that impression." Xiax said. "Besides if it doesn't work I'll still have it. I'm just worried that if fighting breaks out, I might accidently bump into someone and trigger my power. That would be bad." Xiax mutters that last part softly.

"Ok, here, you take it." Xiax says holding out the key. "I'll think of something, just make sure to get help."

Ryla takes the key a bit panicked and she almost drop it before catching it again. ''I DID NOTHING.... and... sure I will ... please be safe !!! ''

Xiax goes to ctach it but Ryla manages not to drop it. "Iylana's got some kinda plan I think, but make sure to get that help." He says as he focuses on his body back in the office. I hope I don't die Xiax thinks as he disappears from the Void leaving Ryla alone.

Ryla nods and then hold both keys tight with her and think hard of restroom little cabin she was just in and disappear from the void as well.

(ATTN : Ferrum Coordinator inside, Open) #guild_key #shazeer

**Posting in a different post because too long man too long !**

--Ferrum Coordinator Guild Hall, UMS; 5:20PM--

(COLLAB WITH LEAH ALSO SOME PEOPLE ARE CONCERNED AS IN PEOPLE WITH THE FOREST QUEST CHECK THIS POST RAWR !!! Anyone within ferrum should read this ! More main plot stuff going on for the curious! )

Ryla came back with both keys on her side and had a face of shock. ''Oh my gaaawwd......'' She whispered. ''That was weird....'' She hid both keys as well as she could under her clothes although she would have to come with better ways to hide... or rather place them.

After making sure the keys were well placed and hidden, she comes out of her little cabin, wash her face quickly and head out of the restroom. When she finally finds Jonah again, someone quite tall was in front of him and looked rather intimidating... but not as much as scary dude. Although he did make her almost have a heart attack when he yelled. Jonah offers to put his arm around her and she doesn't really mind... although she look a bit shaken and lost in her thoughts when she comes back. ''I-I'm back. ''

It's then that the man introduced himself... oh right he's one of the guild leaders... she thinks... maybe... ? He offer and handshake and she gladly return it, preparing mentally for a possible vision. And yep... a vision happened... though not exactly what she thought she would see. Ryla saw this man FORGE the keys of taboo.... except it looked like he was making copies of the originals as he was looking at them for reference. Didn't look to be forged here though. She was so lost with all the weird stuff happening that she almost missed the fact that he kept talking. She tried to act out the shock of the vision as her still being shaken out by something else. Although she really was to be honest worried sick for Xiax and the other guild. ''O-oooh ! I'm sorry... my ideas aren't all clear right now... but yes... I'm Ryla, from Sheherazade.'' She paused for a moment and then with some stress in fear that he would not believe her she says ''I erm... how to say... I'm not exactly an S class... and that feat was not... done by only me... I simply acted as the vessel of something greater to avoid a catastrophe... I'm C class... though I feel more powerful-ish after that weird stuff.... I don't know... My own ability is rather passive.''

Rodimus notices more people moving up to crowd around her and he looks back and around him with annoyance. All of his guild members are listening in, too. Talk about a bunch of lazy, nosy, good-for-nothing bastards, sometimes.

"Alright, look. You come in to my office and you explain this to me," Rodimus says, "I got to write up a report on this mess and explain it to the council, or they'll have my hide. Damn, only been an established Guild for a short time and I already have this in my backyard..."

His voice lowers as his complaints turn into mumbles and grumbles. He heads off towards his office and Jonah wonders if he's supposed to come, too. He wasn't invited, but he's also a little worried about Ryla, too. Doesn't want her to get hurt and all that. He looks to her just as the Guild master leaves and asks her quietly if she wants him to come with, or if he should stay out.

''Just stay with me till I reach the office and maybe stay close ?.... Just to protect me from stalkers after ? Please ?....'' She whispered to him.

Jonah nods his head and follows her as she follows Rodimus, making a small train in the crowd of annoying, chattering people. It's gotten loud again and people are moving about in the excitement, still talking about what happened and so on. Rodimus reaches his door whenever he finally stops walking.

He turns around, his face looking pretty pissed off. He grits is teeth, a low growl forming in his throat and then rising up into a roar of anger and frustration. The volume change was expected, thanks to his expression, so Jonah managed to cover his ears just in time before the man's bellow echoed throughout the building.

"SHUT UP, ALL OF YA!" He roared, "NOW. I'm gonna have a private meeting with this little lady here and I'd really LIKE IT if I could hear MYSELF THINK."

Then, Jonah raises an eyebrow as the man's expression shifts immediately into one of calm neutrality. He turns back around and heads into his office, waits for Ryla to enter, and then closes the door behind them. Jonah walks up to the door and then places his back to it, as a bodyguard of sorts. Not that he's needed...who'd wanna walk in and piss Rodimus off, now?

As Rodimus closes the door, he gestures for Ryla to take a seat as he moves to his desk and gets some paper and pens and such to begin writing. He seats himself with a big sigh, looking tired.

"All right..." Rodimus says, somewhat happily, "Now that my headache isn't killing me from all that noise, why don't you start from the beginning? Ryla, right? A pleasure to meet you. I want to begin by offering my condolences on Rex....he was a good friend of mine and boy, did I love him. "

Ryla nearly had a heart attack again, although she gladly went inside when he offered and nodded to Jonah.

(ATTN : Closed/Rodimus(OPEN WHEN HE COMES OUT, People around ferrum should read this too))

''Thanks... I still haven't managed to go back to the guild to see what happened... we lost a few guildmates over the past few days...I'll do my best to help you with your report sir... though I'll also have to speak of something urgent... which I may seek your assistance on after... in fact maybe I should say so first.... But my power is I get visions usually at random from touching people... but I've been getting visions... that are clearer and.... they've been hitting me at random without doing anything... '' She takes a deep breath ''Infinity Edge are in danger as we speak.... They're being attacked by the dark ascension guild... I don't know if support can be brought to them quickly, but it would be appreciated... Other then this I'll explain everything I know in details, I'm sorry for going offtrack... '' She said looking genuinely worried about them and she seemed a bit anxious about everything that was going on badly.

As soon as Ryla mentions that Infinity Edge is under attack from Dark Ascension, he shoots up from his seat with an alarmed expression, using his fists against the desk to push him up as quickly as he can. If this girl says she knows for sure that this is happening and she's right, he can't risk the time to research if she's telling the truth or not.

"Ilyana," Rodimus says with concern. He moves out to the door and practically rips the door off of its hinges as he races out. "Barrel racers! Front and center!"

Suddenly, the Guild Hall falls even more silent as the Guild Master had rushed out with wide eyes, almost barreling poor Jonah over and into the floor. His arms are up over his head and he speaks with a tone of urgency, calling to his men with his loud, booming voice.

Anyone that knew about Ferrum Coordinator knew about the racers. The barrel racers were a group of Ferrum guild members that could manipulate metal and they were really good at it, too. This group was called the "racers" due to the fact that they always made metallic wheels and carts of ridiculous sizes and drove about with Ferrum Corrdinator deliveries with record time. They always delivered the weapon orders that they got across the continent and rarely felt the need to use the train, considering that they can generally go faster than a train ever has--though, they do slow down near cities, since there is the risk of damage and running people over.

After just a matter of a minute, several men are already in front of Rodium, having moved up to the table nearest him and they all either sit or stand next to it before him with expectation. He looks down at them sternly and makes no waste of time for pleasantries as he commands them for their next Guild Quest.

"I have been led to believe that Infinity Edge is under attack." Rodimus says as the whispers suddenly dissipate, "The numbers of which I am uncertain. I'm going to get as much details as I can on this attack, but in the meantime, you must prepare for battle. Your nest quest is to race to the Infinity Edge Guild hall with as many as will aid you and fight to protect all Infinity Edge Guild members.

While you are headed there, tactics and battle entry will be managed by the Quest leader--Joan, the racer group leader. When you have managed to integrate yourself into the defenses of the Guild, you will answer to Ilyana, the Guild Master. Go now, prepare yourselves. Gather your things and I will return shortly with any information I can obtain."

With that, he rushes back into the room as the room begins to chatter so loudly. However, Joan calls out and is already asking for people to hurry and to sign up at the Quest board on a list if they will be helping in the battle. Then, the door closes so that Rodimus can easily hear again.

"Do you have anything that can help? Enemy numbers, defense conditions, anything?" Rodimus asks, "Casualties?"

Ryla again almost have a heart attack when the man suddenly jumped from his chair and rushed outside to give orders. She awkwardly turns her neck toward the door with her jaw dropped. She tries to take back her composure when he comes back however. ''Woah... this guy is super effective.... '' She thought and then he asked her if she had any details. ''Mmm... '' That was a hard one especially she had not gotten a lot of details herself. She remembered Xiax talking about the office... maybe he saw from a window or something ? ''I'm not sure... it was kind of vague... It started with seeing the guild as a whole in a flash... then... I saw from like some office that they were outside.... seemed like the number was big though.... but they weren't attacking yet.... So I think if it started, it just now.... started. I have a feeling it was at the same time as I was in the restroom.... since that's where I got the vision ... sir...'' Of course she was making up a bit of it, but judging from how Xiax spoke about being in a office, she imagined he probably saw by the window or something.

Rodimus nods his head, sticks his head back out the door, and calls out for Joan. She comes running and he tells her what Ryla basically said. He asks her how long it will take for her to reach the guild. She says that if there are no interruptions and a good, clean terrain, they can make it in an hour, or two at the most.

"Get to it," He commands before coming back in and closing the door behind him. With a sigh of stress, he lays his head on his hands once he has sat back down at his desk and he wonders to himself how in the world they are going to get through this. There's only one reason why they'd attack the whole Guild...they want the key and they knew they wouldn't be able to assassinate Ilyana like they did Rex, the cowardly bastards.

And unlike Rex, Ilyana has a genuine key...if they get their hands on that...he scowls, but he comes away from his thoughts as he looks back up at Ryla and he thanks her for the forewarning. He feels so glad that he's not even further from the guild than what he is. And he thanks the heavens for the racers, too.

"Okay, soo...onwards. So you're not an S Rank and that magic wasn't yours--it was someone else's. They amplified your magic, coolio." Rodimus continues, "I'm glad that I can report to the council that it's not an unregistered S-Rank. They'd have been pissed."

He begins scribbling down some words, but then looks back up at Ryla gratefully, "Thank you, also, for stopping that storm. I can't imagine how many lives you just saved--including a bunch of Ferrum lives. The losses would have been..."

Ryla nods as he says the info again that she said so far and then as he thank her, she blush a bit. ''MM.... Truth is... I actually saw what could have happened... It was horrible.... '' She said still trembling just thinking back of that horrible vision. She then took a deep breath. ''Basically we, sherehazade guild members, found some old ruins of the Shazeer Tribe... and ... '' She pause two seconds looking sad, but continue... ''Me and a guildmate found a secret room there and he managed to activate something... which actually led him to speak with the genuine people of the tribe... or rather their spirits...I saw it through him and since we both accepted to help them... they pretty much sees us as their member sorta... Right before the point of catastrophe happened the ninth contacted us into some kind of void free of time place... and they showed us what could happen if they would not do something... and... said they could do it but they would need a vessel... and a sacrifice since they didn't have enough power as they are weakened.... my guildmate... Sheridan... he accepted to sacrifice himself... without even a moment of hesitation... '' She start crying thinking back of that moment. He told me goodbye and then as we came back to the real world..... I .... saw him collapse .... I felt him and a few others come within me for a short time..... to then leave just as fast when it was all gone.... Sheridan's soul... followed them I could feel it... '' She took a pause to rub her tears. ''However... I also... saw something else while being in the air... a giant gate.... with evil energy leeking.... I could feel everyone's pulse, feelings... so much at the same time while being there.... '' She explained hoping she wasn't too confusing to follow.

Rodimus blinks. He takes several seconds to reply, as thoughts mill about his head. He's a little overwhelmed with the information, and he's unsure how to respond. However...she sensed the gate. Does that mean she knows where it is? What it is? This turned out to be a lot more complicated than he had previously assumed, but when it comes to wiping out a hurricane, he really shouldn't be surprised.

After a few more moments, he puts the pen down. He has written nothing. The council doesn't know much about the gate, nor of the keys...they know even less of the Shazeer and he's really not sure how much he should tell them. This sort of stuff is usually discussed among all of the Guild Masters and then they decide what to disclose to the Unfortunate Thirteen. He sighs.

"And how the hell am I going to explain this?" Rodimus asks, "If I send this weird story into the council, they'll not believe you. They'll summon you to the council hall and expect you to answer immediately. They'll investigate you...might even lock you up, if they consider you enough of a threat. I'm not really sure I want that to happen...and I do owe Rex a favor...why don't we chalk it up to multiple Sheherazade magi working together to stop this storm in this official report?"

Ryla gasp at his words. ''That sound.... scary... I think all this weird stuff and visions is getting me into some trouble... though... at the same time... what should be done for that gigantic gate ?.... it felt like even with all the power I had when I was up that I would not have been able to stop what was inside of it.... or what it could do to this world if it opened... '' She said trembling a bit. ''Though... there was several witnesses... how do we explain that ...to them...?... '' She felt pretty anxious about the whole situation. She just wanted to share the knowledge to help, but it seemed it would bring her trouble, though she felt like the man here was someone she could trust.

"Well, most of the people out there don't know what they saw," Rodimus says confidently, "If you and I get a few people to sign as witnesses to our story, people will pretty much believe what they want to believe. Hive mentality and all that..."

He adjusts his seating position and then leans in over his desk..."Now, about this gate. I've known about it, but I haven't known what it leads to, if it's opened. I don't really know anything other than that, to be honest. The guild masters haven been hunting for the thing for centuries...do you know where it is?"

She nods about the witnesses part. ''Sounds good then....'' She said as she continued to listen and when he asked where it was she answered right away. ''Yes... I saw it clearly... It's at the end of the continent within the hallows forest.... ''

Oh, shit. Oh, shit!! That's what the anomaly is in the forest....I just about sent a bunch of guild members to their deaths and right onto the thing! Rodimus' mind starts racing. He knows where the gate is, now! The guild masters will want to know...it'll be a couple of weeks before they can all reconvene with each other and have another meeting...and by then? What will Dark Ascension have started?

Not to mention...if the gate is leaking, then that must mean there's already a key or two unlocked. Well, that would explain why the Dark Ascension guild key has gone missing...though, he doubts it was ever "missing." They are very obviously behind this whole ordeal. He opens up his desk drawer and leafs through some papers until he finally pulls out his map.

"Okay, mark on the map where it is, as best you can." Rodimus says, "And I'm gonna have to ask you not to tell anyone else about this gate...it's uh...classified."

If only she could tell him she knew about the keys too... but no that wouldn't do. As he pulled out a map, she thought back of her vision and looked at the matching location and did a cross on it as to where the vision seemed to have zoomed in on it. ''There... If I have more vision that shows more... I'll talk to you and only you... I'm glad I spoke to you in private... cause I sure have no idea what's classified and what's not in the visions I see... So much happened in a few days... I want the bad stuff to stop happening.... '' Ryla said now breaking into tears again. ''I'm sorry..... I'm still ... a bit... of a emotional mess on the ... inside.'' She said, not able to keep it down once again. Her crying was much softer than earlier though she just couldn't stop it.

Rodimus' stomach sinks with dread as his suspicions are now confirmed. The gate is, in fact, directly located where the reports are coming from. This is where he was about to send Chiron's and Janos' team...and where he still must send them, it would seem. The girl starts to cry again, so he moves across the desk to hug her tightly. He doesn't now her well, but he does know that hugs can really help people a lot, so he gives it a try.

"....okay, I know what we need to do about this gate." Rodimus says as he holds her. "I'm going to have to hold a meeting with you and a few others...just remember not to mention the gate, okay?"

He holds her for a few minutes, letting her calm down before he finally stands from his knees once more. He goes to the office door, opens it, and calls out loudly--though, the room immediately quieted down as he opened the door, anyway, so he didn't have to scream over people, at least.

"I need the following people in my office immediately:" Rodimus called out, "Janos, Chiron, anyone from Sheherazade, anyone from White Cross, and anyone else I had ready for the White-Cross and Ferrum joint Guild Quest. Thanks."

Then, Rodimus comes in, pats Ryla on the shoulder, and sits at his desk as he waits for various guild members to pour on in. Man, his office isn't that big...it's going to get cramped in here. Fantastic. Jonah sticks his head in and smiles at them, "I'm not in any of that criteria, but...I want to be apart of this. I want to help Ryla."

Rodimus looks at him and almost says no, but he pauses and looks over at Ryla, instead. He smiles at her comfortingly and decides that she just might need an additional friend. "That's up to you, girly. Do you trust him? Can I trust him?"

Ryla let herself be comforted and when he says that he knows what to do and to not speak of the gate... she nods. And then he goes outside to call for some people and come back patting her on the shoulder and he went to sit back at his desk. ''Yes.... He breathes to help people.'' She said with a small smile. ''I saw he almost died several time trying to save people.... I think he can be trusted.''

That was good enough for him. With a nod from Rodimus, Jonah comes in and looks at Ryla with intrigue, wondering how in the world she knows that bout him. Sure, he's a healer, just like anyone, but...how did she know that he's almost died?

[Attn: Nadleeh, Rodimus, Ryla, Open]

Janos could only cringe at the several times Rodimus proved what a bigmouth he was. "Whelp!" he said clasping his hands. "Looks like that's us!" He gave Nadleeh a wink and strode through the crowd.

"Why, Rodi!" Janos said a little while later, as he strolled in. "I couldn't help but overhear your dulcet tones calling for me!" He put a hand to his heart and looked starry eyed. "Made my heart go all pitter patter! He needs me!"

He turned to regard Jonah. "Just the man I was hoping to find!" he said. Suddenly, his other arm lifted and a young man was being held up by the back of his jacket collar. "Can ya help this whelp? Found him on my way to the office. Looks in a right state."

The boy (Lark) had his hands over his ears and his eyes slammed shut. "Too much...noise...!" was all that he kept murmuring, completely unaware of his surroundings.

[ATTN: Whip]
--UMS Border Territory, Targon State; White Cross Guild Hall; 5:20PM--

Whatever it was, Whip certainly wasn't going to lose sleep over it. Seere let himself forget about the weird pulse for the next hour. While Whip showered, Seere dressed himself and sat on the bed, looking out the window as his thoughts turned back to the odd magic event they'd experienced.

"Yeah, I'm starvin'," he said in response. It was true. He didn't think he'd eaten since breakfast. Aw shit. He hoped she didn't want to find food outside the guild hall, cuz he wasn't sure if he could pay for food for them both.

[ATTN: Attica]
--S'venton; Nothern UMS, Targon State; 5:20PM-–

With the storm over, Nadia followed the rest of her guildmates in cleaning up the town. The work occupied her, keeping her mind numb as she worked with a smile plastered on her face.

Nadia looked down and smiled wider down at Attica. "Mission accomplished," she said, and she held her hand out for a high five.

She looked up at Sache and Xaroff. "Well, shall we head home? Or stay one more night here?" she asked. "It is starting to get late."

[Attn: Ilyana, Gren, Open]
Infinity Edge Guild Hall; Ventya State - UMS; 5:20pm--

With the storm sent from hell gone, Nymeria finally found a moment to relax and catch up on her book. She secluded herself to her room, dressing in looser, more casual clothing. Plopping down on the bed with book in hand, Nymeria allowed herself to fall into the world of her favorite, and most handsome detective. Within minutes, she had already gone through 20 pages, but her period of solitude would be soon short-lived as noises of unrest and the pounding of footsteps distracted Nymeria from her story.

Curious over the cause of the whole hullabaloo, Nymeria peered into the main hall to see guild members frantically running about and claiming that Dark Ascension has shown up. Nymeria knew well of the guild, but she couldn't imagine why they would appear at the gates of Infinity Edge. Whatever reason they're here, it probably meant something bad. After donning her regular attire, Nymeria headed to Ilyana's office for an explanation. She'd be perfectly suitable to help the guild fend off Dark Ascension, but she figured to speak with the guild leader before doing anything rash.

[Attn: Rodimus, Ferrrum, Open]
Ferrum Coordinator Guild Hall, UMS; 5:20PM--

Char walked from one corner of the guild hall to the other, overseeing the wellbeing of the refugees while checking for any damage to the building. He could only imagine the headache Rodimus was going through on his own; he'd heave to check on him later. Making his 5th trip across the foyer, he wiped a few beads of sweat off his forehead.

On the way back, though, he could hear Rodimus before he even saw him. Char took a sigh of relief, watching the main hall empty. He found the nearest sturdy object to sit on and took a load off. After all the refugees left, Char made his way to Rodimus' office. Char was surprised to see the door shut with a stranger standing guard as if he worked for the guild.

Within moments, Rodimus bursted out of his office to command the barrel racers to position. He's never seen Rodimus order the racers out with such gravity before, so something was clearly wrong. As soon as his office was open to the other members, Char bolted in with a concerned look. He noticed one girl sitting on her own, but he paid her little mind.

"Rodimus, what's going on? You look like you've been wrung through a grain mill and you're calling for the barrel racers? I thought the emptied hall would have calmed things down, but it looks like something's got you on edge."

***

While the Ferrum guild buzzed with activity, Chiron simply searched for any injured travelers that couldn't be tended to. After a while, He determined that most everyone was well and taken care of, so he turned his attention to finding his guildmates. The task proved more difficult than he imagined in the sea of mingling bodies, but once the Ferrum guildmaster shouted everyone out of the hall, he managed to find Nadleeh standing with a young man he wasn't familiar with.

Chiron approached the two to converse, but the group was soon called into the guildmaster's office. Following his guildmate, Chiron walked up to an impressive room full of neat furniture and interesting pieces of craftsmanship. He looked forward to meeting the famed Rodimus, although his projected voice preceded him.

(ATTN : Ferum Coordinator/Rodimus Office)

Infinity Edge Guild Hall; Ventya State - UMS; 5:20pm--

Ryushi stayed where he was, outside the guild for a while and waited for people to clear out a bit as he was sitting and resting. All of that power use had him quite exausted, when it cleared and he didn't see his guildmates anymore, he thought of only one thing : they were probably inside. He got up slowly and started to walk toward the inside only to hear the guildmaster shout that he wanted to see people of his guild. Although he was aware even from the outside that something had happened before that.

Without much more delay he proceeded toward the said office to see several people were there already. Including some of his guildmates. He nods to them as he enters and then smile toward Rodimus. ''A pleasure to meet you. I am the guildmaster of White Cross. Excuse me for my poor form at the moment however, I simply overused my powers today.'' He tried to speak with the most diplomatic and respectful tone. Although he really wish he felt better. Ryushi also noticed the girl from earlier was there. As well as some other figures he wasn't sure of their identity.

Ryla waited with Rodimus for the others to come in and several came quickly enough, but what made her react the most was Lark which was carried by some guy. ''.... '' She stare at him and then out of the blue gasp and rush to him. ''Lark ! Are you okay ?!... '' She said gently placing her hands on his that were covering his ears.

A vision came to her, one of Lark standing in front of a gate, although not exactly the one they spoke about earlier. It looked like somethin else. It felt like death and as if Lark was welcoming it. That felt like a horrible vision, although at the same time... Feeling his feeling for a bit, she simply did not say anything and waited for him to reply.

Valentino came to the said office finally, although he was wondering what was going on here. Also the little blond girl was cute. She seemed to have interest for another guy sadly. He looked inside noticing that all his guildmates were here now and Ryushi was introducing himself to the other guildmaster.

Nel waited patiently in the council hall, she wasn't much of a crowd person so she steered clear of conversation until Thanis would speak again to give answers. The fact that it was an S class hardly surprised her, she knew what they were capable of, she'd seen it with her anti magus vision, quite the intimidating sight.

Anyway, the storm was over so her next adventure could begin, let the council handle the s class, she though, nodding in approval. Thats when Nel and Chi's eyes met, sending a shiver dowm her spine. She swallowed her fear and walked up to her.

"All... ready.. Madame deat..h..*cough* I mean Chi."

"SOMETIMES, YOU JUST HAVE TO LET GO."

[ATTN: Nelia]
--UMS Territory; Council Hall, Council State; 3:15PM--
Guilds Role-Play - Page 15 Nnnyti

"Well, our ride is outside." She would say, her face unchanging. "God she's weird." she thought to herself, but then again... what as normal?

As soon as they would get close to the chariot, the man would open the door for the both of them. Chi would wait, and allow Nelia to get in first. Afterwards, she would take the seat opposing her, facing the girl. They would have to travel to the heart of the supposed mystery, something she knew way too much about. It was in her own personal research, as well as her duties as an Unfortunate to keep an eye on certain things.

After a few moments of silence she would speak. "You might as well learn what spells I can do, just so if I throw them at something near you, you won't die too." She would offer her hand to the girl, knowing far too well the limits of her power. The closer she became, the easier it was for her to read the spell, as well as how it was made, and how to undo it.

If she had allowed it so, Chi would begin to cast one of her simpler spells, known as "Howidae". From her palm, a spiritual essence would conjure up and reveal a short, stout creature from her hand. It was a dwarf considered to the full version of the spell. All he would hold was a tiny shield made of pure aura. Something the greater version could use to defend others, as well as drop on enemies to crush them.

"Now tell me how it works." she would say. Both for her own curiosity on how magic flowed in her body, as well as the rumors of the girl's powers.

--Terrenia City, Crye Estate; 5:20PM--

"Oh," Lord Crye says candidly, "We both know you did more than that. You mustn't blame yourself for the loss of our dear beloved one. No one can save them all. I have had to face this sad fact for many days in my life, back when I was in the Council's Militia."

The Unfortunate Thirteen used to have a Militia many years ago, but it was quickly disbanded--however, it was known to be a militia that only had non-magi in it, so for a man with magic to state that he was in it might strike to one as odd. However, it isn't as if there was a way to register magic users back then, either, like there is, now. The militia was the Council's action against rouge magi that were known for serious crimes, such as serial killers and terrorists.

"However, I've been idle for far too long." Lord Crye says decisively, "It is time that I step up and take responsibility once more, so I'm going to make my own Guild. The life of a Lord is a fine one, but I have powers that can save the lives of others--just like you do. Now, however, I'm actually going to do something with my gift. I'm going to save lives."

[ATTN: Ryla, Lark, Ryushi, Chiron, Janos, Char]
--Ferrum Coordinator Guild Hall, UMS; 5:20PM--

Char is the first one back into the office and as he asks immediately about what is going on, he simply shakes his head at him and whispers, "We'll cover much of it later. For now, we need to deal with this group before we discuss anything confidential."

Nadleeh, blushing a brilliant red, is so glad that the lower half of her face is concealed. Janos was not only flirtatious, but hostile while being...flirtatious and comical. It's rather odd and Nadleeh has never before met a man like this. She is also glad that she doesn't have to respond--they are summoned by the Guild Master, thank the Goddess.

As Lark is brought in once more, Jonah looks at him, utterly confused. He had literally just healed this man--what had happened to him to make him weak and injured once more?? This fellow must be extremely sick-prone, especially after all that he had done to heal him fully before, as well as the amount of rest that he had received before returning to such a sorry state.

Jonah begins to look him over as Rodimus completely ignores Janos' entrance into the room. His mood has shifted into that of a serious one and that last thing he has time to concentrate on is the man's silly behavior. He really doesn't care to respond, so he simply chooses not to and focuses on Ryla, instead, smiling at her reassuringly. She still looks as though she could cry some more.

Nadleeh followed Janos into the room and is happy to see Ryushi coming in just before her and she quickly moves up behind him with relief. She's so glad to have found one of her Guild-mates. She can tell that he's tired and as he walked in and introduces himself, Jonah instantly moves over to him and touches his shoulder without even asking.

At first, Nadleeh thought the man was gonna say something, but all he did was smile and then move back down to another pitiful man on the floor. The man's hand had glowed upon Ryushi's shoulder as he was speaking to the Guild Master for just a moment, and afterwards, he didn't look near as tired. The man must have been a healer of some kind.

After a few more minutes with his hands spent with glowing, Jonah finally pulls away from Lark, though the man doesn't look too much better than he did before. Unfortunately, Jonah doesn't have much magic left, so there's little else that he can do for the man or for anyone else. Even Ryushi he did little for--all he could do was lift his exhaustion, but the Guild Master will still feel weakened and have no magic.

"Well, a pleasure to meet you, Ryushi." Rodimus says, "I'm rather surprised that you are settling a Guild Quest personally. I didn't expect to meet you so soon, but it's a pleasure, still. Why don't you have a seat?"

Then, Rodimus looks up as more pour into the room. He clears his throat and speaks just a tad more loudly, Okay, only those specified before can be in here. If you aren't Ferrum, White Cross, or Sheherazade...or Jonah...get out."

As they head out into the main Guild Hall, a lot of the tables are almost pretty much set up. Rat is already out at one of the tables, munching down with a mountain of food on his plate. Rolling her eyes, Whip can't say that's she's really entirely surprised.

She moves up to the open window for the kitchens and says, "I want my usual. Seere here is from Walsh, so he's never eaten here before...why don't you just get him a menu?"

"You got it, sweet cheeks," The big man behind the window says with a wink, "Here's the menu and I'll have your food out in a bit."

"Thanks, Al." Whip replies with a smile. Al, a good 450lbs and 8ft tall, can barely look out into the lower window, but he crouches down long enough to pass out the menu to give to Seere.

Before long, Xiax unfreezes and the object in his hand disappears--he's without the fucking key that she just entrusted him with! "Where's the damn key?!" She asks hastily, panicked.

Gren pops into the room where Sylmeria is says a brief hello and that he's here to get her, grabs her, and then teleports away and returns to the office just as Nymeria is also already walking in. Now that all four of them are there, Ilyana immediately begins to speak again. She didn't have a chance to get a response from Xiax, but that's okay. She'll work it out.

"Okay! Gren! Take Nymeria and Sylmeria out of here. Ta-take them somewhere that you know they'll be safe. We have a war on our hands and Xiax here is staying by my side, no matter what." With this last part, she gazes at him with a look of distrust and it is clear that her view of him has changed since the last time they had spoken.

Xaroff, who's memory is really messed up at this point, is really unsure of what is gong on. However, as he sees both Nadia and Attica smiling at each other and high-fiving, he can't help but feel satisfied, even without knowing.

Nadia asks if they wish to leave or if they'll stay another night...Xaroff can feel a heat--a need to hurt Nadia. He suddenly realizes his power is activated, so he instantly shuts it off. He's too weak to have it active and honestly, he needs to warn Nadia, but not here.

"I think we should leave." Xaroff says hastily, "I really, really want to get out of this place. Bad. We can make camp off the road when it gets too late to travel, what'dya say?"

Fuyu smiles and nods his head in greeting and then pushes a chair away from the table so that Jacobi has the space to sit into the chair. Then, he says, "A pleasure, Rovengo. Thanks for the advice--I also had hoped to stay another night, so now we have a good reason to return back late."

I have done some homework on the others. I have six brothers. As you can imagine, my ability would be highly sought after. So what would set your guild apart from the others?” She was having so much fun, but now she has a nervous feeling in her stomach. She knew the day will come when her magic will be exposed. She thinks that Lord Cyre will let her make the final choice and not force her to join. Although he may be more persuasive as well.

Jacobi grins as the introductions are made. “Pleasure to meet ya both. I think I will take ya up on that offer.” He waves to the barmaid and holds up three fingers. She is quick to come with three mugs. He pays her and gives her a little extra. “Before the war stories I do have a little business to do with Fuyu here. It should not take more than a few minutes. Then we can swap stories.” He picks up his beer and stands. “Come with me, and don’t worry I won’t bite.”

[Attn: Ryla group]

Lark lay on the ground in agony. When the man began shouting, his head exploded with pain and his eyes were overloaded with bright, variegated shades of red. He'd almost blacked out from the overload. All he could do was cover his ears and shut his eyes. Suddenly, however, slight relief came--enough that he could be aware of his surroundings, at least. He was no longer in the common room, and there were a couple of familiar faces, including--

"Ryla!" he exclaimed, jumping to his feet. He stumbled as his head pounded and the world spun. He leaned against a wall, then desperately found the nearest trash can and retched. The world still swam before his eyes as he wiped his mouth.

"I...I need to...talk to you," he said after a moment. "It's important."

"And they called it puppy looooooooooooove!" a man with a fox smile sang cheerfully.

"You're flat," Lark said without thinking. "Register is higher." He blinked. He hadn't slipped like that ever after his parents had died.

Lark saw Fox Smile regard him with amusement. "Ah! A musician!" he said buoyantly, turning to Rodimus and shaking a finger at him. "Shame on you, overloading kids' senses."

Lark looked at the man in wonder. How had he figured that out...? He was sharper than most...

Attn: chi

Nel had watched her spell, instinctively activating her special vision to decipher it however, she than shook her head at Chi. "I cant really explain it. My ability is just a part of me... its like asking me to explain how I move my arm." She paused briefly before continuing "But I can show you how i deconstruct." The young girl finished before executing.

A moment passed as she concentrated on Chi's spell, and than, the Dwarf froze in place and deteriorated into a mist before vanishing completely.

Nel smiled as her eyes returned to her original form "Thats how it works!"

"Ah," she said softly and with ease. "So it is that simple." With a smile, she reclined her hand and the both of them met in her lap. It was interesting to say the least. She would have someone who could charge into battle under her shield if that was how she fought. If not, she would be able to use the weapons she summoned, and deteriorate them for her own personal magical supply. She had begun to carefully map out and pan out how to go about the battle, all the while her own plans unfolded.

The carriage had begun it's travel to the forest as the both of them would have mere moments before charging into the unknown. . . At least, for Nelia.

"Then your magic flows within you, without disturbed effort." Chi said, "That means they won't be able to sense you as easily." She began to give a soft laugh, only pondering what vile creature they would stumble upon first. All the while a spirit protected them both from the outside, bringing them closer to the objective.

But who knew that she could make a spirit into the user of a transport . . .

[ATTN: Nadia]
--S'venton; Nothern UMS, Targon State; 5:20PM-–

Xaroff spoke with such urgency that it surprised her - and when Nadia looked over at Xaroff, what good mood she had evaporated.

"That sounds good to me," she said. Xaroff looked exhausted - he had ever since he finally woke after the scuffle in the storm shelter - but now he looked nervous as well. Knowing him, he'd probably picked up something with his magic. "Alright Attica, we'll celebrate this victory properly once we get back home."

Nadia turned and started for the road, her pace quick and her mind racing, trying to think of what the problem might be. Some of the townsfolk were upset about their lost homes and all, so they might harbor some animosity towards them - but no, most of their anger had been towards the teleporter.

She suddenly reached down for her bag at her side as she remembered. That photo. Someone had left a photo of that girl in her bag...

This mission had been sloppy for her as it was, but if there was someone still around who knew who she used to be? The last thing she wanted was for her new family in Quinsenterra to start probing into her past.

[ATTN: Whip, Al]
--UMS Border Territory, Targon State; White Cross Guild Hall; 5:20PM--

Aw, shite. Seere waved the menu away as the giant man, Al, leaned down to give him one. "Ah, I'll just have what she's havin'," he said quickly. "I already know she's got good taste." He winked at Al through the window and grinned at Whip.

Nailed it. Flattery, Seere had learned, got you everywhere - and with luck, she'd not think too hard about what just happened. It was an embarrassing secret of his that he couldn't read - well, not so much a secret for anyone who knew him, but he didn't want the lass finding out and laughing about it.

(ATTN : Jonah, Rodimus, Lark, Ryushi, Chiron, Janos, Char, Nadleeh)

--Ferrum Coordinator Guild Hall, UMS; 5:20PM--

*Got some lines from Leah7 for some npcs*

Ryla was waiting for Lark to come to his senses and while doing so she saw Rodimus smilling at her in a reassuring way. She smiled back, although it was a small one considering the vision she had just saw and how she was worried for Lark and just everything.

''The pleasure is mine. I did not have the chance to do many meetings with other guilds.'' Ryushi said with a smile, noticing Nadleeh had followed right behind him. Although some other man touched him for a few seconds and he felt... not as exausted when his hand lifted from his shoulder. He turned to Jonah and said ''Thank you.'' He then turned back to Rodimus.''I'll gradly take a seat. '' He said as he took one that was free.

"Man, what a mess." Rodimus says, "How many did you bring with you?"

''Four of them. It looked like a dangerous mission and so I preffered to bring more and not take any chances. Given how many bad things happened today... I'm glad I did.''

Rodimus nods his head, "I have two for you and eventually, the Council is sending an anti - mage or two. For backup."

''Good to know there's more backup incoming and two of your guild. '' He said with a smile.

Valentino stayed rather quiet for once, there wasn't enough girl in this room and it was making him sad. Although there seemed to be an almost love triangle around the blondie girl.

Ryla smiled to Jonah as he helped some more with Lark and she still waited for him to come to his senses. And as he did he shouted her name jumped to his feet, lost balances found a trash can and got sick. Ryla by reflex followed after him and rubbed his back. ''Are you okay ?...'' She asked in a worried manner. As he mentioned he needed to talk to her she said ''Sure... I'm listening.''

This other man though started saying it was puppy love and Ryla listened to the exchange between the two. And then how this other man called out on Rodimus. She didn't know how exactly he managed to speak like that to him especially when he looked this serious.... although at the same time he was so sweet.

Valentino just laughed a bit, but not at the guild master but at Janos. ''Man you're funny, I think we won't have any trouble to understand each other.

Rodimus called out about anyone who is not part of the said group to get out. ''Mmm...Diggle is still missing... but I think he's busy with our... other guildmate... '' She explained, trying not to look too sad while saying so. Although she was still waiting for Lark to say what he needed to say.

Okay, we can wait for him," Rodimus replies.

''Okay.... thank you.'' She said with a soft smile to him.

As he says that Diggle comes in and it showed that the man looked depressed and most surely had been crying.

''Ah... there he is. Diggle... '' Seeing his expression, her own becomes sad. ''Come here...'' She said trying to invite him next to her, Lark and Jonah.

He saw someone else come in and with what he saw earlier, he could guess the reason of his expression. He said nothing for now, but he still was worried for him even if he barely knew the guy.

[Attn: Ryla group]

"This is going to sound strange," Lark said, trying to pitch his voice low for Ryla's ear alone. "I--I've been some place and had something of...of a vision. You're central to it and I...have to stay by your side. There's a door and if I don't find it, the world ends."

Janos grinned at Valentino. "Here's hoping!"

(ATTN : Rodimus Office(more precicesly lark))

Ryla hears what Lark mentions and her eyes become wide for a few seconds, but then she calms down and whisper back to him so he can only hear. ''Whatever you saw.... don't mention it to the others yet... as for the said door.... I think I know which one you're talking about.... and if so I know where it is.... but you'll know soon enough....'' That's all she told him for now, here hoping he would catch on that the meeting might have something to do with that. Although she wasn't sure how much she could really tell him, she was glad he also knew...

Valentino smiled toward Janos. ''I just know it pal, we'll become buddies for sure !!''

[Attn: Gren, Sylmeria, Nymeria, Ilyana, Open]
[Location: Infinity Edge Guild Hall; Ventya State - UMS; 5:20pm]

"Where's the damn key?!" Ilyana yells startling Xiax at the sudden and ubrupt change to his surroundings. Luckily for him Ilyana managed not to touch him or grab him reflexively. However the door bursts open and the creepy blood user Nymeria comes in before he has a chance to gather his wits and respond.

Xiax's mouth works almost uselessly as he tries to form an answer, and he gives up when two more people just pop into the room out of nowhere. He doesn't have a good answer, at least not one he can explain off easy.

"Okay! Gren! Take Nymeria and Sylmeria out of here. Ta-take them somewhere that you know they'll be safe. We have a war on our hands and Xiax here is staying by my side, no matter what." Ilyana says issuing orders to the people in the room. The way her eyes look when she gazes at Xiax causes a rock to form in the pit of his stomach.

Knowing how important the key was, he gets the feeling that he's blown her opinion of him. Ok, all I can do right now is help however I can. I'll get the chance to explain when... they're not going to just pop back out of here are they?! Xiax thinks that's even more creepy than Nymeria's icky blood powers. Not that I have much room to wiggle, I just popped out of another place where I talked to a girl who just had to go back to taking a dump. His whole image of normal was being run through a meat grinder with a double rainbow and a pound of glitter and then hand shaped by a 4 year old into a shape vaguely like what it was before.

[ATTN: Kaimele]
--Terrenia City, Crye Estate; 5:30PM--

Lord Crye leans back in his chair and takes a bit of his food, chewing politely as he ponders on how best to answer her question. At first, he wanted to say something against the Dark Ascension guild, but he finally decides that this isn't really the point--his disagreements should be what his Guild is focused on. Instead, he chooses a different response.

Lord Crye says, "If you want to join an army, you go to Blazing Swords. If you want refinement and luxury, you choose Quin. If you're all about compeition, Valoria is the place to go, and now....well, now, if you wanna deal with ghosts and spirits, you can go to this new White Cross place. They have a theme of sorts, if you will. A place in the pecking order to compare with others and to have their own flavor on political standing.

"My Guild won't have any of this. Sure, we're largely gonna be a musical guild--but who doesn't love music? Performing isn't required--just enjoying it is required. However, we aren't going to care what your ability is, nor your age, your social standing...none of that matters. We want everyone to be themselves and to have a place to go to keep a steady job while they support their families and loved ones with the magical gifts that they were born with. Nothing more. And of course--we do hope to become our own family, some day.

"I mean, you'll be fighting along side some of the best if you're a guild member, you know? You got to have trust, love, compassion...for each other and with each other. That's what I am aiming to create here. That's the family I'm going to form."

[ATTN: Ryla, Lark, Ryushi, Chiron, Janos, Char]
--Ferrum Coordinator Guild Hall, UMS; 5:30PM--

After everyone has settled into the now cramped office, Rodimus gruffly moves over to the back of his desk and gestures for the door to be shut. When this occurs, the room quiets down and he looks about him and counts the number in the room. Twelve. Twelve of these buggers. Good job. Might be enough to take care of this mess.

"Okay, Ferrumers and newcomers, listen up," Rodimus says, "We still have a joint mission to cover--and I'm afraid it has now taken top priority. The very top, from me. I'm now registering this quest as a Rank X Guild Quest--and I'm afraid that you'll all need to follow the directions I give you to the very letter."

Jonah shifts uncomfortably, knowing the implications of this. As a healer, he's been well sought after...but he's remained Guildless due to the fact that he's never really gotten to find a place that really felt like "home." However, Rank X Quests are illegal to participate in unless you're in a Guild...so he'll have to join if he is needed for this quest. Otherwise, he'll be unable to assist.

Rank X Quests can only be given that status by fourteen people--the Unfortunate Thirteen and Rodiums, himself. No one really knows why he's the only Guild Master to have this permission (it ever been answered when Rodimus has been asked about it), nor has anyone had the balls to approach the council members about the issue. The other guild masters don't seem to mind, either, despite the fact that he's almost the newest established guild and guild master around. However, if it's Rank X, it essentially means that no less than ten individual parties can be formed to complete it, non-Guild members cannot participate, it's classified to all non-participants, and it's dangerous as hell.

"Now, you know what this means. You accept, you can't back out. You're in it all the way, or you're not. That simple." Rodimus says sternly, gazing at each of them with a hard stare, "No bullshit, no play. If you're not currently a Guild member to some guild, I can give you a temp Guild Alliance--but that means that you will be a Ferrum Guild Member during the duration of this mission, whether you like it or not. That's the law. If you don't like it, you need to leave now, because you cannot know about the details of this Quest."

After saying this bit, he sits and waits, looking about to see if anyone is going to back out. Jonah watches the man gaze at him for a few moments longer and he nods his head to signify that he understands. Rodimus knows that he's guildless, but it's no big deal of the alliance is temporary--if he even survives the quest, that is. The last Rank X quest has four parties of eleven people sent out for it and only four people returned when it was complete. Jonah doesn't like the sound of those kinds of odds.

Whip laughs at Seere's joke as he hands the menu back and they both take a seat. Beverages are already set upon the table centers, so Whip just leans over to take some sweet tea for herself. She is adding some extra sugar into her cup as she smiles at him.

"So what do you think of Cross?" She asks, "We're pretty cool, huh? I wish you had come when Ryushi was here. You'd really like him."

[ATTN: Sylmeria, Nymeria, Xiax, Ryla]
--Infinity Edge Guild Hall; Ventya State - UMS; 5:30pm--

"Okay, Gren--take these girls--" Ilyana begins.

The window shatters and a dark, cloaked figure leaps in, a sword in hand. The sword is moving towards Ilyana's back as she is faced away and she has not yet had the chance to react when Gren's tattered face looks up with alterness to see what is happening.

Gren teleports and he's suddenly behind her, his back to hers. His sword is up, catching the assassin's in time and blocking the blade. With a gasp, Ilyana moves away and her eyes suddenly light up with a bright flame and smoke trails from them as she suddenly shifts from an expression of shock into one of anger. As Gren's sword fight with the figure begins, she takes Sylmeria and Nymeria's hands as her body lights up with an aura of white and gold light.

She pulls them through the door and says, "Stay with me, girls. Xiax. Gren will pull you out when he's not busy. Until then, don't leave my side."

As she speaks, it sounds like her normal voice, but halfway through her words, another voice joins her own, speaking simultaneously as she does. A deep, manly voice which almost seems whispy, like an echo of a ghost. Her eyes have gone black, now, but the gold smoke still emanates from them. Slowly, white, gold, and transparent plates appear over her body as they reach the main hall where cloaked figures are beginning to pour through.

Guild members are fighting everywhere, but as they see her come through, space is suddenly formed around the four of them--it is clear that the Infinity Edge members don't want to be next to Ilyana, right now. Unsheathing her weapon, she claps her hands about the hilt, holding the blade so that it points up to the sky before her.

The voices say: "Blade of Retribution"

The sword glows a bright gold and becomes longer and length, pulsing with power as wings of gold with brown flecks form on her back. She rises up on the ground with levitation as three black figures approach her with magic of her own. She points her sword's blade at them and two of the three take a step back as she speaks with a voice so loud, it is as if it is magnified five fold.

"Surrender here, or by the laws of Justice, you will be rendered powerless before the Edge of Infinity."

Attica groans, "The trains are out, I done checked. We'll have to walk all night to get there...."

"Well, walking is good for ya," Xaroff says with a shrug.

She pouts some more, mumbling under her breath, so the big man bends down, picks the girl up, and slings her over his shoulder. She instantly starts squealing and demanding that he put her down, but he just keeps walking as she taps on his back urgently with the dire to get to the ground. Sache's shoulders shake from amusement, grinning at the two.

Finally, after a bit of walking and struggling alike, he finally lets Attica down and she crosses her arms. "Can't we get a horse...? A carriage?"

"Yeah, sure. Sache can cover it." Xaroff says, patting the mute on the shoulder jovially.

Suddenly, Sache stops his stride and Xaroff turns to see why he's stopped walking. Attica notices a second later and follows suite. Sache points at Xaroff, then at himself before holding up his right hand, closing it up into a fist, and then bring it up against his right shoulder. Xaroff laughs as his nods his head with approval.

"Alright, alright. Arm wrestle you for it. The winner pays." Xaroff agrees.

[ATTN: Jacobi]
--Lacrima Inn Lobby, UMS; 5:30PM--

Thax looks up at Fuyu, a bit puzzled, but he says nothing as Fuyu agrees with a nod of his head and stands up to walk with the man. He and Rovengo are gone for barely five, maybe ten minutes at the most before they both return and begin talking...about girls. And quest--past quests, current ones. All kinds of things. Although the conversation is great and enlightening, Thax's mind keeps wandering back to the secrecy.

Yet, Fuyu just went on, as if it had never happened. It kind of bothers him, but he'll let it go. If he's meant t o know, he'll find out. If he's not, he won't. And if he isn't meant to know, then it doesn't matter. Not to him. It probably doesn't have anything to do with him, so he really shouldn't be so nosy, anyway.

"...and that's when I realized that the "Rachel" I was supposed to be saving from the kidnapper was the chicken that I ate for lunch." Fuyu says sheepishly, shrugging. Thax laughs.
