~~Prologue: On the Seas of Fate~~
(http://i.imgur.com/1lhqow8.png)
Three days away from port of Di, in north-western part of Greater Pleiades archipelago... The Blackbones, Ethan Valle's pirate ship, has found a target. Thinking of this as just another pirating job, he prepares to assault the merchant ship. Little does he know it will be the start of a voyage that will change his life in a way he never expected...
The hull of the small caravel crashed against the side of the much larger vessel, sending splinters flying and shaking the people on the decks. The armored man, standing near the captain, shook his head at the green-haired man on the smaller ship.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2kicpol06kktn70/arst.png?raw=1) "Blast! Captain, keep the ship steady! To arms, Domirians! We are being boarded by pirates! Lord Antore's treasures cannot fall into their hands!" Brown-wearing soldiers joined the few axe-wielding seamen on the deck.
But at the other end of the ship, an elderly man was huddled against the railing, petting a crystal ball, half-covered by the sleeve of his large, flowing robe.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/xby78vv70f7liv4/tukov.png?raw=1) "Mine... my treasure... you are miiiine..."
And on the pirate ship, the green haired man joined the rest of his crew and prepared to attack.
//Ethan Valle, Lysander, Lavinia Dell, Ashlyn and Claude Nassau are in!

Lavinia eyed the lone swordsman across from her, and was more than a little tempted to board the enemy ship and fight him - and numbers be damned.
Instead, she moved up beside Ashlyn.

So the swordsman had closed the distance himself. A man after her own heart - but he did still have to die.
Stab Swordsman A.

Claude was bloodied but smiled nonetheless as he swung his sword at the ax-wielder.

Of course that was a dangerous bet for Claude, specially for how competitive he was. Lavinia knew her way around a lance (no innuendo intended) and he had good chances of losing. What was life without a little contest, though?

Claude had a cocky smile plastered on his face. He'd already wounded his opponent and now he was going to finish the job and all but win the contest since the knight up ahead looked like a case for Ethan. The newly-made privateer was mid-swing when Lavinia appeared out of nowhere and stabbed his target.
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "What?" At first he didn't even understand it. His swing slowed down to hit a man that was already a corpse.

Now that the ship is clear of fighters, all that remains is for the captains to discuss "business".
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Well-"
Claude abruptly stopped to watch as Ethan finished off the knight and left only the captain to deal with.
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "And with that, it's over. he commented before turning his attention back to Lavinia.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "You won, but I want a rematch next time."
He was used to losing only to his brother and no one else. Losing stung even during a friendly competition, and he was going to show why he made an habit out of winning.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Sure." Why not? Meeting challenges head on was what she lived for - and winning was nice too.
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "But I don't plan on losing next time, either."
She peered down the steps at her feet. Like Ethan had said at the start of the fight, they'd have to haul the loot after "negotiations," no doubt.
-
Lysander headed back to Ashlyn and smiled at her as he gently rested his heal staff against her shoulder.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Here, this should help. You doing alright? You took some hard hits there at the end."
-
Ashlyn relaxed as the magic healed her wounds.
(http://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"Thanks Lysander. Yeah, these guys were no joke, 'specially that old timer, but I'll be fine. Heck, I should be asking if you're alright having he singed you so many times."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Huh? Oh, eh, it's fine. My magic resistance is pretty good to be honest. Not saying it didn't hurt, but it wasn't going nearly as much damage to me as it was you. I think it was some of the training my... ah. My grandma used to give me..."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"Eh, I'm supposed to be the one taking the hits, even if I've got as much magical resistance as this deck."
(http://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"Oh yeah, you didn't join up with the Captain like the rest of us. Have you been able to contact your family since we rescued you? I try to send a letter home whenever we make port."
-
Lysander winced, staring down at the ground as he answered her, smile fading.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"No, I uh... I'm... I'm all that's left. The pirates that you all rescued me from... They took me and a few others from my family's ship before sinking it. Most... most everyone was already dead at that point. So... No one to worry about me back home. No home back home either though..."
-
"But I don't plan on losing next time, either."
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Ah, but next time I'll be prepared if you try to snatch victory from my hands." Claude replied with a wry smile before following Lavinia's gaze.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "I wonder how much we scored this time." And naturally, he was going to take inventory and register everything in his log book.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "You'll just have to tell us when you get around to counting."
Leaning against the mast, she glanced over at Ashlyn and Lysander, who seemed to be preoccupied with their own conversation, before turning her attention back to Claude.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Though, come to think of it. Didn't the mage who fried you have some sort of orb?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "He did, and he was cradling it very protectively. I think Ashlyn has it now, she was the one who took him down."
-
Ashlyn winced at her blunder.
(http://i.imgur.com/MLBYo9B.png)"Ah. I'm... sorry for bringing it up."
(http://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"Anyway..." Ashlyn said as she pulled out the orb the old timer had dropped, "What do you think this thing is? That old timer was trying so hard to keep it to himself while he was trying to fry us, right?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"It's... it's ok. You didn't know. And yeah... he kept screaming about how it was his. Wonder what it does..."
-
Ethan strode over to the other captain.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "So, Domirian captain sir. Do you hand your cargo and wealth over, or do we add another corpse to the deck and take the goods anyways?"
-
P-please, mister pirate captain, we were just carrying grain to the poor children...
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Search the ship, folks, and report any valuables. If the good captain lies to us, he will be having ale with the sharks today."
-
... And Lord Antore's dowry for his daughter's wedding, gifts, heirlooms and a few chests of coinage for the Domirian treasury...
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Nice to know that there are some cooperative Domirians still."
-
The captain hung his head low and pointed towards the loot.
Some time later the bigger ship set course forward quite a bit lighter while in Ethan's ship there was now several chests and bags full of valuable stuff. Discounting the amount that would go to the Alvadan treasury, it would still leave quite the amount for the crew to enjoy.
Party gets 4800 gold!
-
Claude not only helped haul the booty back into their ship, he started to add the loot's specifics to his notebook almost as soon as he got his eyes on it. He quickly showed why he was far better as a number-cracking record-keeper than as a swordsman.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Not bad, not bad. The Domirians didn't do any proper tagging but I can fix that. Even after discounting the Admiralty's share, there is a good amount of gold and valuables left. I wonder if we could negotiate a better deal with the officials..."
Then he remembered Lavinia's comment about the orb. He wasn't a jeweler, but he could probably tell what kind of gem it was and its rough market value.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Ashlyn, do you have the orb the old mage was cradling? I want to appraise it."
-
Ashlyn took out the orb and showed it to Claude.
(http://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"Yeah, it's right here."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "Thanks. Let me take a closer look..."
Claude took the orb from Ashlyn's hands and started to study it, running his fingers over its surface to search for any cracks, faults or imperfections, raising it above his head and against the sun, and looking into it to discern any sign of impurities. After a few minutes, the swordsman sighed.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "This doesn't look like glass or crystal. It also does not look like a particularly big gem. It might be magical, so Lysander might have a better idea. Lysander?"
-
Lysander reached out and took the orb, running a hand over it before sending a slight jolt of magic into it like he might for his healing staff. Eventually, he shook his head.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"It has some sort of magic signature to it, but nothing like I've seen before to be honest. I can't tell you anything more than that."
-
Ethan listened to the conversation and then rubbed his nose.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "So, it's a mysterious magical jewel, huh. Good riddance; we can sail to Port of Di to ask the local scholar, he has quite a reputation for identifying magical stuff. Plus, we haven't been in Pleiades for a while now."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Since it doesn't look like any precious gem and its value is uncertain, this doesn't fall within the percentage to be claimed by the Admiralty. It'll be a fortunate happening if we discover it to be very valuable after the officials' share has been taken care of." Claude commented with a smile.
-
~~Chapter 1: Land Rats~~

The Blackbones was a fast ship, so it only took two days to go to the Port of Di. There, more flagless ships were standing next to Alvadan military ships and various merchant vessels. The Port seemed quiet, but it was only a facade until fate revealed what was coming for Ethan and the rest.
Ethan and his crew watched as the Admiralty clerk and several Alvadan soldiers took their share of the loot. Now that that was done, they were free to set sail again or wander around the port city of Di.
And find out what the mystery orb was.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Okay, Lysander, grab the orb, take Claude as bodyguard and visit the scholar. He has his house up on the hill near the Old Gods' Temple. Rest of you, go check for some good deals on the market."
Ethan goes to a blacksmith or some sort to browse axe selection if there's any.
-
Lavinia shrugged, looking somewhat amused. Claude was the bodyguard? And she was the one to go to market?
She glanced at Ashlyn once Ethan left.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Are you any good at haggling, or am I missing something?"
-
Not letting Claude deal with the purchases was a bit strange, but maybe the others would just check prices and report. Hopefully. He gave Lavinia and Ashlyn a slightly confused glance.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Let's go and see that scholar, Lysander."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Ig2SCCt.png)"Actually, Captain I still have the-" she tried to finish but Ethan had alreadly skedaddled.
(http://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"I guess I'm tagging along with you guys. Unless you want to go do the shopping Claude. I know you like to keep track of all our expenditures."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "Fine with me. Oh, and - if you hear about a brawl later, I didn't start it."
Go shopping. Check out the rest of the weapons.
-
Ethan found a blacksmith dealing in all types of weapons- except bows apparently. He mostly worked the cheap iron stuff that the privateers used on their frequent raids.
Iron Sword: 380 g
Slim Sword: 350 g
Iron Rapier: 430 g
Iron Blade: 550 g
Slim Lance: 400 g
Iron Lance: 440 g
Iron Javelin: 640 g
Iron Halberd: 500 g
Iron Axe: 480 g
Quarterstaff: 450 g
Iron Club: 470 g
Hand Axe: 650 g
Iron Dagger: 350 g
Iron Knife: 420 g
Lavinia didn't find a specialized weaponsmith and all other blacksmiths didn't deal with weapons. But she did find an apothecary with a few staves for sale.
Vulnerary: 300 g
Antitoxin: 150 g
Heal: 500 g
Antidote: 400 g
Poison: 550 g
Lysander, Claude and Ashlyn went up to the hill, where lone and humble house resided across the street from the Temple.
-
Ethan rubbed his chin, and then went to look for Ashlynn and Lavinia at the market.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Here you are... where's Ashlynn though? I asked you two to check stuff so Claude can make best deals later on."
(http://i.imgur.com/62hkUCG.png) "Don't tell me she went to a tavern to drink without us."
-
She had very little idea of what a good price was for staves. Lysander was off dealing with the orb. She supposed a vulnerary or two wouldn't hurt, given she'd quaffed one down the last battle. After staring at the prices for a while, she figured she'd memorized the five for Claude later.
Then Ethan came in.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Hey, captain. Probably just wanted to hang onto the orb - as long as she doesn't end up like that mage, it's none of my business."
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Unless that was just an excuse to sneak off to the tavern... You done and heading there already?"
-
Claude opened the door and led the trio into the scholar's place.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "You could have just given Lysander the orb, Ashlyn. You aren't becoming like that mage, are you?"
-
Ashlyn huffed.
(http://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"Please. I'm just curious as to what it is if the both of you are clueless about it."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Nah, was just going to ask if you found anything good. On my part, all I found was one weaponsmith. Rather pricey, all things considered."
-
In any case...
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Greetings, scholar. We have an unknown magical object for appraisal."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Besides, having more people can't hurt, right? We can all go look at weapons after too. Seems like a not bad way to handle it, you know?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Just staves and vulneraries. If you found weapons, that covers all five of us. Are we looking for anything else?"
Perhaps she ought to have peeked in Claude's books. Though she'd have known it if they were running low on rations, at least.
-
The supposed scholar went to greet the visitors. He was as ancient as the house, sporting a long white beard that he could strangle himself with twice if needed.
Welcome! Excuse me, I was having something to eat. I'm Aristablos the Second, what brings you to my abode today?
-
Ashlyn pulled out the orb.
(http://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"We were hoping you could appraise this, or maybe tell us what it is."
-
Aristablos took the orb from Ashlyn's hands carefully.
Of course, of course! After all, I'm a renowned identifier of magical objects. An orb such as this is a semiregular occurrence.
The elder scholar proceeded to place his hands all over it, observing carefully how it reacted to his magical pokes. He assumed a puzzled look, as he started reciting incantations that the orb apparently refused to listen. Aristablos stared at the orb for a few seconds before turning and getting a scroll of a shelf nearby. He placed the orb onto the scroll and invoked the magic, but alas, the orb remained unperturbed.
Aristablos stared at the orb for a few seconds again before speaking.
... Where did you obtain this most mysterious of orbs? Was it perchance at a forgotten dungeon?
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Told you it wasn't normal..."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"We got it off of a Domirian ship. Some old man was cradling the orb and slinging fire at us so we stopped that. And now we have the orb, gods know where he got it from."
-
Hmm... So it's not *that* one then. Wait a minute please.
Aristablos disappeared behind a curtain and then reappeared carrying a book. He set said book next to the orb and started flicking the pages rapidly, his eyes switching constantly between the book and the orb. After a few minutes of searching, the book ran out of pages, and Aristablos looked defeated.
I can't find anything about it... I have been beaten by a mere orb! I cannot identify it for you. I apologize. Aristablos bowed but suddenly shot up. Actually, there is a place that you could go. The House of Scholars, where I learned and obtained all the knowledge I have, is a veritable well of knowledge. The people there will surely help you where I have failed. The old man turned to be depressed somewhere else, but first he shared a last bit of information. The House of Scholars is south-west from Di, in the middle of the mountains. You should try to find someone with links to it that can go with you, they're heavily secluded to avoid bandit attacks. Luckily for you I believe there is one such person in Di that could go with you. Not me, I'm too old and sad now to accompany you. Good luck on your quest!
And Aristablos disappeared again.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"He could have at least told us who to find..."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/62hkUCG.png) "I was hoping for some shiny weapons."
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Money exists to be spent, after all."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Hey, do you know where is the person are we supposed to talk to?!" But the scholar was gone.
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "Let's meet up up with Ethan and give him the news."
Then he led the trio out of the house and started looking for weaponsmiths, where they'd likely find Ethan searching for axes. Hopefully.
-
Claude found Ethan and Lavinia after some searching. Apparently they hadn't gotten involved in any bar brawls just yet.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "The scholar had no idea what the orb is about aside from being magical. He told us to head to the House of Scholars, south-west from Di, in the middle of the mountains. He also told us there's someone around with links to the place who could take us there, but he wouldn't tell who that was."
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "How about you, how were the prices?"
-
"I was hoping for some shiny weapons."
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "Ha! You and me both, captain."
That was about when Claude came in and dumped all the information on them. She blinked, then shrugged easily.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Weapons are pretty expensive, to hear him tell it. Staves around 500, vulneraries around 300... You can check it out yourself."
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "But what I'm really hearing is, you do the shopping, and we'll go shop around for this person. That right?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "That sounds like the average price, and I can check the weapons. No competition around to drop prices, I assume. That also makes it nearly impossible to haggle since they have the upper hand by holding local monopoly." Claude commented while recovering his notebook from a pouch and checking the pages.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "And the purchases will depend on our current needs. Weapon-wise, my sword can keep going for a long while, and I'm still learning how to handle heavier blades. We should, however, get some medicine. You spent yours completely, didn't you?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "I did. Part of it was on you, so don't start." Despite the look on her face, her tone wasn't completely serious.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Carrying Lysander's, though."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Pfft. I wasn't going to complain. That means it's at least one vulnerary added to the list. How's Lysander's doing?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "House of Scholars? Is that somewhere inland? We will need to hire bodyguards. I don't trust my fighting skills on land as much as I do at the sea. Let's see if there are any mercenaries in the tavern. Or if someone there knows where this House of Scholars is." Ethan marched to the nearest tavern.
-
And so the group went to the local tavern, "Salt and Sanctuary". The tavern keeper there was quite helpful.
Mercenaries? Well yah, some people came 'ere lookin' for work. I'll tell yah. The keeper pointed to a few people around, including a girl who stood out for her strange robes.
//Amberly, Maria Genette, Alain Cromwell and Marlow Weston are in!
-
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "And we still have to find that someone with a connection to the House of Sch-" Claude cut himself short as soon as he noticed the oddly-robed girl.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Ahaha, I hope this isn't just a coincidence."
-
Maria was sitting down by herself, looking over a mini-checklist she had made. Her lance was leaning on her, though she put it under her arm every once in a while. She looked up when a group entered the tavern.
(http://i.imgur.com/mlU68h8.png)Oooh, maybe they're hiring! Something to do!
Despite this, she didn't bother them. Well, yet.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"If we are looking for people, We should try and find a magic user. Maybe also someone with a mount who would be able to scout for us? Like the Captain said, land isn't our strength necessarily so finding people more confident than us would be smart."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "That's reasonable. Let's interview them and let's make it quick."
Claude got to a fairly visible spot in the tavern and started calling the attention of all the prospective new members.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "You, you, you and you. You're all looking for a job, correct? I'm part of Ethan Valle's crew. He's the captain of the Blackbones, a privateer ship. We're looking into making a small inland expedition and we need some extra hands for the work. What are your skills?"
-
The woman in robes spoke up, hesitantly but firmly.
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "I'm...afraid there might have been a slight...misunderstanding with the proprietor. I'm not looking for work. I'm trying to head inland myself, and I was hoping to travel with a larger group for protection." She paused, summoning up some nerve, then added "If you happen to be going anywhere near the House of Scholars, then perhaps I could tag along with your 'expedition'?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Oh are you a part of the order there? We have some questions for them, so having someone who knows the people there would be extremely helpful."
-
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "Not a member of their order, no. I'm an initiate at the Temple of Di, and the Matron Mother there has ordered me to visit the House of Scholars. I've been there once before, you see, and unlike most of the initiates I have some training with combat magic."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Then you are welcome to join our group. You'll be safe with us and your experience with combat magic will be valuable." And that made it two for the price of one.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Good to meet you then. My name is Lysander. What's yours?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "A mage and a person who knows the way to House of Scholars." Ethan rubbed his chin.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Lavinia, you think we need more?"
-
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "Well, your fortuitous arrival just now certainly makes my task easier. My name is Amberly, and it's a pleasure to meet you all."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "I'm Claude, pleased to meet you. What sort of magic do you use?"
-
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "Light magic. Specifically the Warding school, which can generate temporary magical barriers." The nun looked down and wrung her hands, feeling somewhat embarrassed. "I'm...still basically a beginner at it. If I go with you, you should not expect me to stop armies in their tracks or anything of the sort. I can do little more than blunt incoming blows."
-
Marlow had been sipping at a drink - just water, really - when the group had come in. He heard them talking - hm, a job? That could be nice. He'd been looking to do something after all.
(http://i.imgur.com/8jC0CPm.png)"'lo there." he said as he stood up after being called. "Skills, skills skills skills... I might not be able to lug a sword around, but sometimes you just need a quick knife in the right place, don't you? I can pick locks too, or... relieve opponents of their heavy and unattended gear." He paused. And then face-palmed. "...Well I just described myself as a thief, didn't I? Before you ask, I used to be a thief. Honest work for me now."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/rZ6iW4V.png) "I'm only able to blunt blows with my face so that's quite good already." Claude tells Amberly before turning his attention to Marlow.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "And we are state-sanctioned pirates. A former thief could be useful, as long as you're honest towards us."
-
Well, not-bothering time is over. Time to see if it's job time. She waves to the group as she gets up and heads over, grabbing her lance but leaving her checklist at her table. She glances at Amberly and subconsciously grips her lance tighter.
(https://i.imgur.com/xEuwg3U.png) "Hi there! I'm Maria, and as for skills... Well, I can ride a horse and fight with a lance while riding her, does that count?"
-
Alain had busied himself flipping back and forth between the Tome, sitting up at the bar. His last job had paid decently enough, but there had been a bit too many screw ups for his taste; in the end it had cost him the last few legs of his old Thunder. Not that he was unaccustomed to wearing the things out, he'd only ever been able to get them second hand afterall, so even if none of the shops had his preference still on their shelves, it was still nice to hold a tome that wasn't slowly falling apart at it's seams, for once.
Still didn't change the fact that fire wasn't his forte. But, whatever... beggars couldn't be choosers.
As a couple strangers- fighters from the looks of their garbs -called him over though, he clapped the tome closed, looking them over. They couldn't possible be any worse than his last employers, could they?
(http://i.imgur.com/HhbFMHc.png):"Skills?" he asked at the inquiry "I sling thunder, a few crooks get fried, then I get paid... at least, that's how it usually happens, if things go smoothly. Anyway, call me Alain, Al, it doesn't matter; You lot have a different air around you than the last morons I worked for... so color me interested."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Lavinia, you think we need more?"
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Claude's got the purse strings, so I don't see why not."
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Long as they can keep up with us, anyway." Honestly, she wasn't sure why Ethan doubted himself on land. She'd bet that their crew could fight just as well as any person here, on land or sea. But numbers were still numbers, she supposed.
As for interviews, Claude was doing fine. She'd hang back with Ashlyn, and step in later if something came up.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/rZ6iW4V.png) "Anima magic then, huh?" Claude checked his notes after listening the mage and the rider. So far the mage and the thief seemed to have some past experience, and since Amberly was their guide so she could be as green as she wanted. To be honest, they could use a rider for scouting so he was likely accepting Maria even if she happened to be green.
(http://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Any experience of your own, Maria?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/bkscgbx.png) "I've been hired a few times before, mostly for escorting and defending the escortee. Typical rider work, really."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "That sounds like it's enough. It's also good to see people have good taste when it comes to armor and cape color." He commented, obviously referencing Maria and Alain's attire. He idly scribbled a few more lines on his notebook while talking, like it was second nature to him.
(http://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "And I didn't catch your name." He said, turning his attention to the self-professed ex-thief.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/8jC0CPm.png)"Oh, that'd probably be useful information, yeah. Marlow Weston, at your service. Yours?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "I'm Claude Nassau."
After all was said and done, Claude started cracking some numbers and analyzing their options. Amberly was obviously in because they needed her to guide them to the House, and she was a spellcaster even if she admitted to not having much experience. Alain seemed more experienced than her and a second magic-wielder was unlikely to hurt. Someone skilled in skullduggery was a welcome addition just in case it was necessary (though they'd need to keep a close eye on him) and then they had the rider, whose horse would provide a good edge inland as long as they weren't inside a forest.
In the end, his conclusion was simple: hire them all. Their finances could take it, and more people meant going through obstacles faster. Hopefully all of the recruits would prove their worth.
-
Claude carefully detached a page of his notebook then gave it to Ethan. It was full of numbers detailing expenses, with a "worth it" observation.
(http://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Unless our captain objects, you're all hired. Or joining our team for convenience's sake, as is Amberly's case."
(http://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "Now we have to take care of purchases."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "We want medicines. Lysander can't heal all of us at once if a disaster strikes. I don't think we will be buying anything else..."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Another heal staff maybe? If we don't know when we will next see a shop, it might be helpful to have a spare."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Hmm, right. A healing staff and medicines."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"Maybe a bigger axe? Just for the extra oomp."
-
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "The Matron Mother provided me with a tome and medicine for emergencies. I shouldn't need anything else, and of course the medicine will go to anyone who needs it."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Maybe... Maybe a knife for me? I'm not entirely confident in using one yet but I'm doing my best to learn..."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "I have a mental list ready, I just need to check the weaponsmith to be sure of something." Claude started going through his notes again before he left the tavern.
Purchase a Heal Staff (500g) and three Vulneraries (900g) then head to the Weaponsmith to haggle.
-
Claude obtained all the healing things from the apothecary, provided in a big bag so he didn't spill all of it while carrying the rest of the stuff.
Claude gets Heal and Vulnerary*3!
Party loses 1400 gold!
Then he got to the blacksmith and stood there staring at him.
... Can I help ya?
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "I have a small list of weapons for purchase here and I'm sure we could reach an agreement over a small courtesy discount."
-
The blacksmith lets out a loud huff at Claude's "suggestion".
Small courtesy discount? What for, I can't do that! If word spreads that I gave *you* a discount every single one of these bilge rats will ask for one! Stated price only. What're ya lookin' for?
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "It's not like giving me a discount would be harmful. I don't go around telling. Also, we're purchasing some weapons because it's convenient, so not getting a little incentive means I'll have to return to my crew with only the minimum."
-
The blacksmith grumbled a bit.
Yer one of Ethan Valle's crew, right? Well, here's an incentive for ya: I'm not discountin' any, but I'll say that there were some bounty hunters around 'ere earlier, askin' for 'im. And since information is valuable, still want to waste time hagglin'?
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "That's right. And thanks, that's good enough. I'll take these." Claude hadn't been expecting to succeed, in any case. At least he got something useful out of it.
Purchase an Iron Axe (480g), an Iron Javelin (640g) and an Iron Knife (420g).
After purchasing the items, he quickly reunited with the crew at the tavern.
(http://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "And I come with the goods and with news. The weaponsmith said there were bounty hunters around earlier asking for you, Ethan. It sounds like we'll be getting in trouble sooner rather than later."
-
*KCHING* The gold changed hands and Claude could haul a load of iron by himself. Until he'd get tired and drop it, that is.
Claude gets Iron stuff!
Party loses 1540 gold!
-
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "Bounty...hunters? What has your captain done to have a bounty placed on his head?" Though little of the nun's face could be seen, she pretty clearly was beginning to have second thoughts about this arrangement.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Our job does piss off a fair number of people, most of them Domirians, on a regular basis."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Ethan's not a bad sort," Lavinia said, glancing at Lysander for a moment before deciding not to drag him into it. "Sorry, captain. Know you've got a reputation to keep."
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Bet they're just in it for the gold. They won't care why he's got a price on him - and with all these new hands, we can take them."
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "I say we find them, scrap with them, make sure they know we're not worth the money."
-
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "...could we just focus on getting to the House of Scholars, instead?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "They'll keep chasing. We get into a fight now, we don't have to drag the scholars into it, either."
But she was ready to go too, if that was what they were doing. Talking wasn't much progress towards anything.
-
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "I don't think you'll be able to get into a fight now even if you wanted to. Surely the Guards would get involved in any major fights within the city, and would probably focus on whoever starts it. These bounty hunters probably know that as well...which means that if they do come after you, they'll wait until you leave the city and attack in the wilderness."
-
Lysander shivered as the discussion of bounty hunters came up. There seemed to be doubts about what Ethan had done to deserve such a thing, and the glance Lavinia gave him made him pale, but thankfully she moved past it. Quietly he spoke up in response to Amberly.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Yeah. They won't start anything here. But they'll have eyes on us probably... It's not going to be safe to travel with us. Our captain picks fights with those who deserve it and that's gotten him enemies. Plus he works for the government and takes down Domarian ships which also makes him enemies. But... he's a good man. And we'll do what we can to protect him. But if you don't want to take that risk, I think we'd all understand."
The mage wasn't your typical fighter, that much was clear. While her information would be useful, Lysander didn't want her to come along and regret it halfway there. Better she was warned from the start.

(http://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "We're likely not finding them, they'll want to have the drop on us. We'll just have to be prepared for an ambush." Claude said with a shrug on the bounty hunter matter.
(http://i.imgur.com/rZ6iW4V.png) "Either way, we number nine now and their chance of winning a fight is zero. Trust me, I'm really good with numbers." He added with a cocky smile.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Let's go, then. Bounty Hunters or not, we won't get to House of Scholars by staying in the city." Ethan then led the group to the southern gate.
-
As soon as Ethan and the rest stepped out of the city through the southern gate, a group of horsemen appeared from down the road. One of them, the presumed leader, took a step forward and talked at Ethan.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/nozw5er1cph5orr/brisker.png?raw=1): Excuse me, are you by any chance Ethan Valle?
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "No."

(https://www.dropbox.com/s/nozw5er1cph5orr/brisker.png?raw=1): Please, you could have tried harder to deceive me! Green hair, carrying an axe and accompanied by a crew, there's no mistaking you! Brisker unsheathed his sword as the rest of his group prepared for battle. Get him!

(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "All mounted. We either use the gates as a chokepoint or they'll use their mobility against us." he commented while looking at the enemies.
A bunch of riders with a bunch of bows and lances. It truly wasn't Claude's day. Still... He looked at the enemies, then at Lavinia.

H-10, hold
Lysander found himself taking an involuntary step back. Despite his brave words about fighting, when faced with an actual enemy he was still hesitant. There weren't any pirates there. That was one of the benefits of traveling inland. Less of a risk of running into that sort of sun. But still...
-
I-8, hold.
Amberly took considerably more than one step back, but she wasn't fleeing just yet. If she had wanted to run, she should have taken Lysander up on his advice to find another group to travel with. Too late for that now.
(http://s19.postimage.org/q3ii6i2kf/amberly_veilprayer.png): "Mantorok, Weaver of Fate and Shepard of Stars...be with us now."

Marlow quietly slips out, towards the nearby home - things were going to get violent soon and well, probably best for them to lock their doors.

H8, Hold

Equip hatchet & hold.

Claude noticed Ethan wasn't retreating just yet and stood his ground as well, taking a step back and gripping his sword tightly. There was no way in hell he was going to retreat until his boss had decided it was time to.
Move to H11.
-
Maria felt comfortable. Sure, this wasn't what she thought she signed up for, but it was easy enough for her to hop on Ophia when the other riders came out. Plus, they were riders. There was no magic, and she knew horses like the back of her hand. For now, she stayed in place, ready to ride wherever needed on a moments notice.
Hold
-
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "I hope they know what they're doing, standing out in the open like that."
If not, I'll have to go find a new group to travel with. Hopefully one without any bounties.

She'd stand with him, too. No question about it.

He took a single glance at the new arrivals in the distance, armed with quality gear and each and everyone of them looking ready to kill, and then another glance back at the rather hasty horsemen who he once felt so certain had wasted a perfectly good ambush opportunity. Then once more back at the new arrivals.
It didn't take a Tower-trained scholar to put two and two together, in this situation.
(http://i.imgur.com/rxMXoby.png) Well... This certainly makes things more interesting. The horsemen must just be a diversion. Guess they weren't as stupid as I thought they were
But hey, who had ever said there was such a thing as easy money? He should've been used to little surprises like this by now...

Ethan move to I-9, unrescue and drop Ashlyn at H-9.
-
Lavinia moved back with the others, barely restraining herself from taking another stab at the complaining bounty hunter in front of her. Horses coming straight at them, ambushers closing in behind... this sort of challenge was what she lived for.
And Ashlyn chopping that horseman off his mount had not gone unnoticed - her competition was with Claude, but she could still admire a thing of beauty.
H-10.

Marlow knocks on the door, and a loony looking man opens up and takes a look at the knocker.
Oh, looks like you're about to get in a real fight, right? Do me a favor and test out this new potion I've been brewing. If it works you can keep it. I'll be watching... The strange man shoves a bottle of medicine on Marlow's hand and closes the door on his face.

(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Ugh, I have to pull back. Lavinia, hang in there." As much as he didn't like it, there wasn't much he could do there aside from getting pelted by arrows while trying to heal Lavinia until they were both tasting the pavement. Lysander could help but his healing was better used on the people who could actually fight the archers.
G8, trade Aahnlyn Ashlyn for the steel blade.

(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "Ha... you don't think I can handle it?..."
Of course she could.
She kept as tight a hold on her lance as she could, jamming the blunt end into the ground for support, but still sliding down it, slumping towards the ground. She'd get up... get back at them. Just... she just needed a moment. That was all.
-
So that was one group dealt with (praise the Old Gods!), but it seemed like the horsemen weren't willing to give up. Amberly rushed south and did her best to zap the bow-wielding man just outside the gate.
H-9, ZAP!
-
Maria's body relaxed when she was first healed with Lysander's magic, only for her body to tense up the second it realized it was magic. Nonetheless, she flashed him a thumbs-up and mumbled a wavering thanks as she got back up on Ophia. Only to get knocked right back down again.

~~~~Chapter 1 Complete~~~~
XP: 0/100
The gate is now cleared of any enemies, and then the guards come running to see what's happening.
*huff* What- *puff* What's going on in here?
-
Amberly staggers to her feet, looking somewhat annoyed but feeling furious.
(https://s19.postimg.org/6vvd9wk8z/amberly_veilangry.png): "Your response time to a battle at your own city's gates was disgraceful. Who is in charge here?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "We've been accosted by bounty hunters seeking to kill me. Let me tell you details..." Ethan took the guard's officer to the side.
-
Claude walked over to Lavinia's spot and offered a hand to help her up.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "That's enough resting. The battle's over." he said with a wink.
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "And I lost. Again."
-
Ethan and the officer talked a bit aside from the rest. A bit of nodding and conversationing later Ethan returns to the party a little lighter on money and the guards leave them alone.
Party loses 25 gold.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "I'll need more than a hand," Lavinia muttered, but took it, with her other hand still on her lance as support. Lysander would get around to it when he got around to it. For now, she tried to ignore the bleeding, which seemed to at least be slowing.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "What was the count... one to none?... Ha. Hardly worth calling that a competition... We'll count the next one."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "As much as I'd like to take you up on that offer, a defeat is a defeat. I'm not gonna pull out every time it gets rough."
-
The nun huffed in irritation as the useless guards left without even bothering to pretend to investigate.
(https://s19.postimg.org/6vvd9wk8z/amberly_veilangry.png): "Ooooo...if we weren't in a hurry I would tell the Matron Mother about this at once. She'd bring the wrath of Aaos himself down upon the city council."
-
Alain suppressed the fire dancing at his fingers as the last horsemen fell; figures, just as he was on a roll. Damn lancers and archers had never known what roasted them. He'd come this far after all, had survived so many jobs already, and he didn't intend to stop now. Or ever, really. Not until they had enough, not until he could finally go back, burn that damn shack and it's fields to the ground and bring them all somewhere better...
And burn it down he would. This fire stuff was rather interesting, didn't have quite the moxie that thunder did, but twas easier to work with, and just as effective. Hell, even with the arrow one of those arses had lodged in him, he'd still been able to hit each of them dead on...
He flipped the Tome open, studying it's contents once more.
(http://i.imgur.com/rxMXoby.png)"Hmph... bloody bastards thinking they could fletch me. Guess fire isn't half bad. Might as well expand my horizons, work with a different element for a bit..."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "It's not for you. One just doesn't cut it for me." She had to keep going. Be better than she already was. She was already going over in her head what had worked against these horsemen and what hadn't - not that theory had ever helped her more than practice.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Count it if you want, but we'll really see who's winning next time."
-
Lysander stared around at the wounded members of the crew and then down at his hands. Staff in one, dagger in the other. He'd been too cowardly to even try and help the rest of them beyond healing. His grip on the dagger hilt tightened and he muttered to himself,
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"No more. No more being a weakling and hiding behind everyone else. I won't let myself be defenseless anymore."
Walking over to Amberly he gently tapped her with his staff.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Here, I'm sorry you got involved in all of this. Hopefully this should help you feel better though."
-
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "Thank you again, Lysander. I think I'm mostly just upset at what the city of Di calls "guardsmen", but the healing is most appreciated." The nun looked Lysander over, frowning slightly behind her veil. "You seem a bit upset about something yourself. Is there anything I can do to help?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Not... not really. I just realized that I can't keep letting this crew save me over and over. I owe them all so much. I wanted to start fighting back but I was just scared. But I can't let myself be frozen like that anymore. I need to try and fight."
He showed her the dagger briefly before stowing it back in his belt.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"So I'm going to do my best to pay back all that I owe moving forward."
-
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "I see. It's unfortunate that a healer such as yourself is required to fight, but I suppose that's inevitable on a privateer crew. The fact that you're willing to do so is quite admirable."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "Fine, Lavinia. Next time then." he said, helping her up.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Lysander, Lavinia is still really bad over here."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Ah! Sorry Amberly, I'll talk to you later."
Rushing over to Lavinia, he healed her as quickly as he could.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Sorry I missed you. Are you ok now?"
-
Oops. She hadn't meant to distract the healer from his job.
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "Is there anything I can do to help, Mr Claude?"
-
Lavinia straightened up, letting out an almost involuntary sigh as the healing took effect.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Thanks. Things got a bit too busy there."
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "... And you know me, Lysander. I'll be fine. Can't go dying on the captain, can I? Especially when you're around."
-
Claude let go of Lavinia now that she was fine and straightened back up. At least this time he hadn't been smashed into the ground repeatedly, but at the cost of not contributing at all to the fight thanks to an excess of lances, mounted archers and plain dangerous enemies. That was simultaneously frustrating and disappointing.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Nothing, Amberly. You did well enough back there."
-
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "Thank you, sir. Um. Do you have a title or anything I should use? You seem to be second-in-command here."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "I'm only the quartermaster. Lavinia here is the first mate." Claude replied, nodding towards the lancer by his side.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Claude just tends to be talkative and he knows a lot of stuff about money, so he takes care of anything like that. And then Ashlyn does her best at cooking and is the lookout and muscle and stuff. And I'm obviously the healer, and that's the crew!"
-
Amberly was just racking up the faux-pas today, it seemed.
(https://s19.postimg.org/clblu7qf7/amberly_veilce.png): "I'm...so sorry. This has been a very strange day." The nun bowed towards the two privateers.
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "So, your crew is only five people? I thought ships usually had more than that."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Don't feel bad, it's an easy mistake. Especially since Lavinia is a lot quieter than Claude. And yeah, just us five. Before they... err, recruited me, it was just the four of them."
-
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "Oh? I'd like to hear some stories sometime.
"Just...probably not now. With the, well...mess."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "We could share stories as we make our way to the House. With those bounty hunters gone it's likely we'll face less nuisances on the way there."
-
Lysander froze for a second and then gave a hesitant nod.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"I... Yeah, I could share stories some time maybe. Not... right now like you said. I'm going to go check on people."
He quickly moved away, heading towards Ashlyn, making a gesture towards his staff.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"You all good? I can patch you up if not."
-
Ashlyn gave Lysander a confident smirk, still proud of her performance.
(https://i.imgur.com/g6Ul2ug.png)"Naw, I'm fine. Got hit by one of the archers towards the end there but it's nothing that can't heal by itself. How 'but you? I got kinda distracted by the second group so I couldn't keep an eye on you."
-
He frowned, slightly annoyed.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"I don't need people looking out for me. I can take care of myself. I've been working on a thing... I think I figured out how to heal myself at the same time that I'm healing someone else. It's not quite as effective, but it should still help."
He also gestured towards the knife in his belt.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Besides, I... I need to be able to protect myself too. I can't be depending on you guys always being there to protect me. ... Not when I know that there isn't always going to be someone there."
-
Ashlyn frowned back.
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"You're still our only healer and need protection. And anyway, if there's someone sturdier they should be taking the hits. I know I don't look it, but I can take more than my fair share of damage."
She stared at the combat knife, internally debating something.
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"Did you even train with those things? Or did you just decide to pick them up?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"I know you can but that doesn't mean I should be useless always depending on you all. I've depended on people a lot lately. I want to start being able to stand on my own two feet."
When she started questioning the knife, he coughed and suddenly found the ground very interesting.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"I mean... I have some training with it. Or... experience. Sort of. Mostly just... stuff I've been practicing. With the kitchen knives. So... not really..."
-
Ashlyn blinked, recalling a similar conversation with her own parents.
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"Yeah, I get what you're saying. I've been in the same boat, so to speak. But you shouldn't just jump into it, y'know. That's how accidents happen; especially if you don't even have any training with your weapons."
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"If you want I could help you practice, with the knives or your new healing thing."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "I bet some of us could use a stiff drink right now. Too bad we're moving on already."
-
Maria had previously been trying to watch what was going on while she was getting up from being knocked off her horse, and saw the light show that was Alain. Even now as she was making sure that medicine actually worked and that her horse needed none, she was still shaking.
Nonetheless, she tended to Ophia and herself, occasionally listening to see if she could join in to take her mind off things.
(http://i.imgur.com/qLn1H6S.jpg)I don't drink that often, but I wouldn't mind a round right now,"
(http://i.imgur.com/XxO9Lou.jpg)"I suppose that the tavern is a fairly common place for you when you need to take some time?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "I might not be the most stereotypical pirate, but I do like some mead. And you do look like you could use some yourself."
-
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "If I may offer a suggestion? The House of Scholars is several days' journey from here at the best of times. Considering the position of the sun and the delay caused by that battle, there's no reason to set out today unless you are in a particular hurry. We won't be getting far tonight in any case."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "I think we were in a hurry, but it all depends on the captain." Claude said, turning his attention to Ethan.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/62hkUCG.png) "Hmmm, let's see..." Ethan thought for few short seconds.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "We should move. The more we loiter, the higher chances for the bounty hunters to accost us again, or worse, attack us in our sleep"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "I might not be the most stereotypical pirate, but I do like some mead. And you do look like you could use some yourself."
(http://i.imgur.com/CtATPoj.jpg)"I figured this lot wasn't standard, but if this is the kind of thing you get roped into on a regular basis, anyone could use it."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"I guess I really shouldn't say no, huh? Yeah alright. That makes sense I guess. Better to have some practice with it."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "Yeah. We have to move on, though, captain's orders. I guess the mead will have to wait until later." Claude replied.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "At least we got something out of that little clash."
The swordsman picked up the sword he'd gotten from Ashlyn and tested its weight. Heavy, but he could probably get used to it. Though he was still talkative and fairly pleasant, anyone used to Claude could tell by the little twitch in his brow that he was rather frustrated and trying his hardest not to let it all out.
-
Well, it sounded like they were headed out. Amberly offered a quick prayer of gratitude to the Old Gods for their survival, and another one for the souls of the fallen.

~~Chapter 2: At the Gates of Wisdom~~
(http://i.imgur.com/wguWhVs.png)
After a day of travel, the grasslands gave way to rocky plains with the occasional bush. Another day and the group was at the edge of the desert, where their destination resides hidden behind the dunes.
The group reached the last small village before the sand became commonplace. But unlike all the previous villages, this one was about to stop being peaceful.
Travelers, please stay inside! Desert bandits are about to attack the village! Young men with swords pointed at two bystanders, a knight and a horsewoman, as they prepared to intercept the raiders coming from the sand.
//Gawen Cawallader and Angelica are in!
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/4uetc9mrlhk40qh/aglov.png?raw=1): Hmph! That idiot Divron now says that he can't find the entrance to the House of Scholars. Well, I guess we'll just have to ask "politely" at the village.
Meanwhile deeper in the desert some other bandits were wandering around looking for something.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/6coimuttdx5blp5/divron.png?raw=1): I swear it was around here! I saw with my own eyes that mage go up a path leading to the House. Why can't I see it now? My brother is gonna be angry at me... Half the loot for whoever finds the entrance!

Claude had apparently managed to deal with his frustration by training with the heavy blade the team had gained after defeating Ghazi. It wasn't hard to see him training during their stops at villages, swinging that sword around like he really wanted to cut something in half with it.

Alain's eye twitched ever so slightly as he watched the four... well, three of the young mercenaries charge off without so much as a thought about their numbers. Gripping the bridge of his nose as he sighed loudly, he closed his tome, marking the current page he'd been studying.

H12, boop Aglov
-
"Claude sounds like he's trying to sell something," Lavinia said to Ashlyn as she moved by, her tone more than a little amused.
I-13, stab Aglov.

The knight surged from behind the downed cavalier and stabbed Aglov, whose retaliation didn't do nearly as much damage as he would have wanted.

Gawen leaned on her lance a bit.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Angelica, this man could use your assistance," she said, gesturing with one hand toward Ethan.
-
Seeing the wizard meet his own end not long after he'd burnt the witch to a crisp, Alain wasted no time stepping over the still smoking remains and past the remaining guardsmen as he walked towards Lavinia and the Armored stranger.
(http://i.imgur.com/HhbFMHc.png)"Nice work killing the wizard" He said, glancing at the man's body "That was a very peculiar spell he was using though... I don't suppose you managed to confiscate his tome and notes, did you? Could come in pretty handy for dealing with the rest of these lot..."
Of course, he honestly didn't want to thing because he felt it would make felling the bandits easier, the book would just be something new to study, help build up his own knowledge using the dead man's notes... and it wasn't like any of the rest of them could use it anyway.
H13, Trade with Lavinia for the Singe Tome
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281652278657024/Basedtroub-1.png)
"Indeed he could," She says riding towards Ethan, staff in hand. "Back up you go"
J13, heal Ethan, Canto to J15
-
Lavinia shrugged, handed the tome over, and glanced at Claude.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "This come out of his pay?"
As far as she was concerned, he could have it and be done with it, unless one of the crew insisted on Lysander inspecting it later like the orb. Magic wasn't her thing, but having seen it employed at close range against charging horsemen - she could respect that.
-
Heal Maria again
-
Claude was a bit disappointed he only managed to cut down one enemy before they retreated, but that likely the best outcome for the rookies' health. Until they could bag both the remaining foes they'd probably take down at least one member of the militia.
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "You're welcome, but you all should return. There's worried people waiting for you back there." Claude told the militiamen before turning his attention to Lavinia.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "If he uses it in battle while under our service then it isn't taken from his pay, no. If he wants to hoard it for research then it'll have to be paid for, with a proportional discount on his pay based on how intact the tome is. And it looks like we're evenly matched."
-
The mage listened idly as he flipped through the tome with surprising speed, eyes browsing the text and what notes might have been scribbled in the margins, muttering something to himself. Before long he shut the tome with one hand and in his opposite one ignited a small flame which he inspected. Twas a pure scarlet conflagration that seemed to burn with a near unnatural light, a far cry from the usual crimson and orange blooms he'd been conjuring up until then.
(http://i.imgur.com/HhbFMHc.png) "Hoard for research? Ha! If only I ever had the luxury of developing such a habit. No, you misunderstand my friend, Tomes are just a means to an end for me. I just wanted to see how the old bastard might've gotten his flames to linger like that, but it turns out the secret to his trick was nothing but a disappointment... this thing is basically just a standard fire tome that's had a few tweaks made to the spell structure in one particular place. Regardless, If you want me to treat the rest of these scum to a slow, agonizing death with it, then say no more. I make sure my clients always get their money's worth."
Equip Singe

Maria barely had the time to scream when magic flew her way before. Even now, she was still visibly terrified, having a bit of trouble getting back up on her startled horse. She knew she would have to face it, she did. Didn't make it any less terrifying. The healing magic helped the pain, at least.

He had marked his place and closed the book. They'd finally done it, come running forward to their deaths. From the crowd he picked out the loudest and most irritated of the bunch, probably their boss. Getting to him would be easy, dealing with the aftermath was another story...
But then again, those damn horsemen hadn't put him down. He didn't intend to let a few raiders do it either. Time to cut off the serpent's other head.

The mage rose to his feet, glaring at the archer in the distance ever so briefly.
(https://i.imgur.com/m24zZD6.png)"Well well, it seems the scum functioned just fine, even with the Rat dead. How unfortunate..."
(https://i.imgur.com/rxMXoby.png) "Being brought down by mongrels certainly hurts my reputation of reliability. Oh well, it was a calculated risk, and at least I'll live..."
With that said, he turned to Lysander
(https://i.imgur.com/HhbFMHc.png)"Which I suppose I have you to thank for. That reminds, I don't think we've properly met yet, have we?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Alain, right? It's not problem. If I didn't heal people, I wouldn't be doing my job in this crew. So while the gratitude is appreciated, there is no need to waste words on it. Especially not with the enemy still around. Maybe thank me by keeping them away."

Enemy Phase
The huntress decides the sword coming dangerously to her head is enough warning and starts fleeing, not before stepping on Gawen. After a short while of fleeing though, a sudden sandstorm surrounds her and makes her disappear.
~~~~Chapter 2 Complete~~~~
XP: 5/100
And when the sandstorm dissipates, an unseen before path leading to a temple was now visible to the party. The House of Scholars has made its appearance.
-

"Well that works I suppose," Angelica mutters before picking up Gawen from the desert sand and healing her. "Feeling better?"
-
Amberly raised her arms to the sky.
(https://s19.postimg.org/f99btb0cj/amberly_veilhappy.png): "Success! The bandits have been driven away, and the House of Scholars is secure! Well done, everyone."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)
"Much better, thank you. Seems I've been slacking off; I'll have to redouble my training efforts. Or pick twice as many fights." She grinned at Angelica with this last, before assuming a somewhat more serious expression and turning to Ethan's party.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)
"That was excellent fighting," she said, with just the barest hint of a glance at the one who'd spent the entire combat digging in the sand. "I take it your group was passing toward the House of Scholars as well."
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281663401951233/Basedtroub-ec2.png)
Goodness, you'll always find some way to get into a fight won't you? Well, so long as you don't go too in over your head, I'll be here to treat your wounds," she responds in almost a motherly tone before turning to the light mage.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"Yes, I'd say things were a success thanks to everyone's efforts"
-
Battle over, Claude strode towards Lavinia.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "So what did you find? I can't count this as a victory when you spent so much time digging for treasure, so what is it?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "Are we just going to keep giving the other person mercy? Let's just call the whole thing even so far and say whoever wins the next round's leading."
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "And I found this." Lavinia offered the cloth up for brief inspection, seeming half pleased and half annoyed. The bandits had never proved a challenge anyway - just look at how they'd dealt with the first group of them - but she'd have liked to have gotten in on the fighting that'd just ended. (The icon she'd already tucked away for the moment. She supposed she could ask Amberly or Lysander about it and get a fair bit of entertainment along with information. Or just slip it to Claude or Ethan later for just the former.)
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Either magic or recent, since it's still in good shape. Even if it isn't something we can activate in a magic sort of way" - she left figuring out that sort of stuff up to others even if they'd come across their share of weird loot in their time - "it seems strong and light enough to use as some sort of padding."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)
"It's not as if I'm actively seeking them out. I simply have the means and will to fight battles instead of running from them."
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"Whatever you say Gawen," she giggles. "Regardless of how you get into them, you still have a habit of finding your way into them. Though I guess that keeps me employed, but still make sure you don't get in over your head. Alright?"
-
Seeing no more hostiles, Ethan hefted his axe and looked at the temple.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Time to get some answers about the jewel. Let's go, guys." He looked atGawen and Angelica.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "You two can come with us if you want. Know my good will."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Good find. And hey Lavinia, it's not like I don't want to emerge victorious either, but we keep going through trouble that makes it harder to declare a proper victor."
-
Ethan and company walked up the path to the temple door, where an acolyte opened the door before any of them could knock. Without stepping out, the acolyte looked around the group and asked.
Which one of you is Amberly?
-
Amberly raised a hand, keeping her head lowered.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "Aw, just suck it up and admit you won this round, then. Unless you'd rather still be losing? Well, if you insist..."
She shot a grin at Claude, half-teasing, half-taunting, then slung the cloth over her shoulder and started walking.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Come on, let's catch up with the rest of the crew before they start thinking the sandstorm ate us, too."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "If we count bad victories, we'd have to count yours back at the ambush, when I couldn't do anything. See the problem here? In any case, I'd still be losing because of the contest back at the ship."
(https://i.imgur.com/rZ6iW4V.png) "I'll help you need the next time you go treasure-hunting. That's less time you'll spend digging and less time I'll spend getting ahead of you."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "If you're going to start competing on who's being more fair and honorable, then I'll just keep stabbing the people you're fighting in the back."
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "Don't make me think you haggle more cutthroat than you fight."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rZ6iW4V.png) "I guess I'm better at haggling goods than victories. I guess it's because a bad victory just doesn't feel the same, you know?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Still awfully persistent in haggling to get rid of it."
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Whatever floats your boat, then. We'll see who wins next time."
They'd caught up to the others at this point, so she left it at that.
-
The acolyte signed to Amberly that she could come in, and then turned to the rest.
And you? Do you have any business with the House of Scholars?
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Yeah, we tried to have an item appraised in Di but the local scholar had no clue what it is and directed us here as supposedly the greatest scholars reside here. So, can you guys help?"
-
The acolyte looked in for a moment and then fully opened the door.
Come in.
Ethan and company were allowed inside the abbey, and the acolyte led them through various corridors of smooth stone, passing rooms full of meditating, training and studying scholars until they reached a big room with only a table and some chairs around it.
Wait here, I'll call in the abbess.
The acolyte disappeared behind a locked door.
-
Ethan pulled away the nearest chair and sat down, stretching his legs and placing his hands behind his neck.
-
Amberly sat in a meditative pose. Her earlier exuberance was completely absent now.
-
The door opened and a venerable old woman entered. She immediately walked up to Ethan and lightly smacked him in the forehead with a rolled up scroll.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): Get up, boy. That chair is reserved for senior acolytes.
Then she walked up to the nun in training.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): You must be Amberly, right? I see you're dressed in the proper attire already. Welcome to the House of Scholars.
-
Amberly bowed in her seat, then pulled a rolled-up scroll from her robes and presented it to the older woman. Amberly knew that it was a scroll of introduction, informing the House of Amberly's purpose there.
-
The abbess took the scroll and quickly read it.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): Hmm... I see. Well, Amberly, I'll introduce you in a moment to some other acolytes working on that. They'll be able to help you if I'm busy.
She then turned to the rest.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): What about the rest of you? I was told you had an item even that old man Aristablos couldn't identify.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Yep." Ethan stood up and then stretched a little bit.
-
A beat passed while the abbess waited to be given or shown something.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): Well, what is it? I can't identify something out of thin air!
-
Ashlyn stepped forward and pulled out the orb, showing it to the woman.
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"It's this thing. Apparently it's some kinda magic."
-
The abbess took the orb and looked at it from different angles.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): Hm. I'll have to examine it for a bit. I'll be right back.
She then went back out of the door the entered from.
-
The captain grimaced.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Should I chalk it up as theft of my spoils or not yet?"
-
Suddenly the door slammed open and the abbess rushed through straight at Ethan and Ashlyn, looking halfway between terrified and about to rip his head off.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): You! Where did you get this thing? She lifted the orb in front of their faces.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"She seems a bit bothered... Is it special or something? There was just a weird guy on a ship we fought that had it."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Give it back first, lest you shatter it with your frantic shaking."
-
The abbess jerked her head towards Lysander.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): What weird guy, what ship?
Then she turned back to Ethan.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): Don't give me that sass, boy, this is no time for f**king games! Ugh, I'll just show you.
The abbess unrolled the scroll she had on the other hand on the table. It showed a continent that looked suspiciously like the current one, but with no seas in the middle.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): Amberly, this will serve as your first lesson. Do you know what this is?
-
The nun was startled out of her silence, unsure what to do. The Temple of Di's rules forbade her from speaking...but this was a direct question.
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "It...it appears to be a map of the world from before the Reckoning?"
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): Exactly. I don't think I need to show you all a map of the world currently. And this- The abbess placed the orb on top of the map. Is the Royal Orb of Alvada. You probably never heard of it since it dates from before the Reckoning.
The abbess took a deep breath before continuing.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): You see, the Royal Orb is not just a simple treasure, it's been said that despite always being lost to some mishap, fate has returned the Orb to the Alvadan royalty whenever a disaster is about to occur. The orb's appearance foreshadows great danger, but also offers the solution.
The abbess placed her hand on the orb in a specific way, and then lifted it above the map. Light rays started coming out of the orb, illuminating specific places on the map.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): The Royal Orb shows the location of the Great Treasures of Alvada, treasures that when put together by the royalty can stop the disaster from happening. Now, can any of you guess when was the last time the Orb was seen?
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"So does that mean we need to give this to royalty or something? And... Did it show up at this Reckoning?"
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): Yes, and yes. It is of utmost importance that you take this orb and the knowledge of how to use it. Watch closely.
The abbess repeated the process to light up the orb, and pulled a scroll that showed a map of the current world.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): The point of reference for the map was based on the old Alvada capital, but that's been long underwater so I'll show you how to do it in a current map.
The abbess repeated her lesson again, marking the point of reference with one of the beams of light, so that the other lit up places accurately displayed the treasures' location.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): Don't forget what I showed you today. The last time the orb appeared and the treasures failed to be reunited, half the world sunk under the sea, mountains became islands, and the deaths vastly outnumbered the survivors. Now, who'll be taking the orb?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"I suppose I'll take it back then. Didn't have a problem keeping track of it before and I doubt I will now."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Do you need to be able to use magic to use the orb or can anyone use it? I know the hand placement is important, but I can't tell if you're channeling magic into it or not. Not that it really matters for carrying it around. Ashlyn did a good job with it, so I support her having it again."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"As a noble of the land, I should be the one take the orb for safekeeping until such time as it can be returned to the royal family." She tried, and mostly succeeded, to hide her excitement. Surely, she was afraid of what could be the apocalypse coming, but a heroic quest such as this was the sort of thing she had dreamed of ever since she was a child.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"And we're employees of the Alvadan rulers. Plus you're brand new to the group. I don't see why we should give it up to you."
Lysander crossed his arms across his chest, and stared at the armored woman. She'd literally just joined up with them and it wasn't even clear if she was staying! Who did she think she was trying to butt in and take the glory and treasure from them.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"I am the closest thing to a member of the royal family here, unless one of you is an heir I was not made aware of. It is my duty as a Lady to defend the people and the land - a duty I take very seriously. Escorting this artifact to its proper place is now at the forefront of the obligations under that overarching duty. Furthermore, I am not seizing the orb from you, unless you mean to run off with it; there is nothing preventing us from working together going forward to return it and retrieve the other artifacts." Her tone was calm, but firm.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/Ig2SCCt.png)"If you're joining our group then your political standing outside of our group means nothing. You could be a prince or a pauper, but unless we're given orders to treat you differently then you're on the same standing as us. And, we don't even know who you are, other than that you're awfully eager to get your hands on this orb. If anything, that's more reason not to give it to you."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"I have a signet ring, a House Cawallader seal, and my own personal seal if you need proof of identity beyond what this suit of armor provides." She gestured toward the item in question, decorated with the colors and sigils of her house. "And I never claimed to be joining your group. Cooperation is something I will do, and I will defer to your leader in questions of battle tactics, but I am not beholden to you."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"If you aren't part of our group, then we have even less reason to give you the orb that we fought and could have died for. We'll do our job and deliver it to the person it belongs to. That's not you."
Assuming the captain agrees to hand it over of course...
-
(https://i.imgur.com/Ig2SCCt.png)"I couldn't care less about who you are unless you're literally the royalty we're supposed to give the Orb to." Ashlyn rolled her eyes as Gawen pointed to what she could only guess was something that proved her nobility."Then you're not getting the Orb no matter what. We're under no obligation to follow you and we're not going to give you any sort of leverage over us."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"I neither need nor care about leverage over you. And none of you have offered any proof that you are, in fact, in the employ of the royal family. It would be gravely irresponsible of me to allow something of this importance to remain in the hands of someone that I did not know could be trusted. I do not mean to insult you or any of yours, but this a matter of unmatched importance."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/Ig2SCCt.png)"Look. I understand you're used to getting your way, miss noble of little importance, but you've offered no proof other than your idealist prattling about your duty that you won't run off with the Orb. So it would be awfully irresponsible of us to give it over to someone who we don't know can be trusted."
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"And if you want proof you should be asking Ethan for it, he's our boss."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "And if you still call him a fraud afterwards, I'll have to ask you to step outside so we can settle this."
Assuming Ethan didn't do so himself, anyway.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"I quite literally offered you proof of who and what I am, and have fought beside you in battle - I know of no better ways to garner your trust. Even if I were to run off with this orb, I doubt you would find it difficult to locate me, and you have the ability to seek recompense against me and my family were I to do so." Her eyes narrowed slightly.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"And I do not take kindly to insults or threats, so I will ask this once for you to please refrain from them."
-
"Look, miss." Marlow interjects. "You keep saying you should hold it. Nobility, sure. You say you have proof, sure. My question - why do you care who's holding onto it? We're going the same place, we're giving it to the same person. Does it matter who gives it? If it's a matter of glory, your name's probably gonna be the one written down if you're nobility anyway." He glances to Ethan. "Look, why not give her some documentation or something so we can be done with this "who holds the thing" game and be on our way? Just my suggestion there."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Because, much as your friend here has accused me of untrustworthiness, I am not certain that your group can be trusted with this. I feel it would be safer in my hands. Were I satisfied that it was still going to where it belonged, I would. . . honestly still be somewhat uncomfortable due to my lack of experience with you, but I would not insist upon anything beyond being allowed to assist in escorting it."
-
As the tensions had begun to rise, and threats tossed out, Lysander had began to shrink. He didn't like fighting like this, and the more they argued, the more he began to regret joining in. He briefly considered hiding behind Ashlyn, but she wasn't nearly tall enough for that to be effective without him looking silly. Instead he carefully edged his way over to the other stranger they'd met in the desert, and nodded at her.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Hello... Is... I'm Lysander by the way. What's your name? And... is she often like this?"[/i][/color]

"Angelica is my name, and yes, this is a somewhat frequent occurrence. I understand her enthusiasm to the cause, but this could have been handled a bit better." she sighs, pinching the bridge of her nose.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281660117811200/Basedtroub-ec.png)
"Honestly if your group has proper intentions for the thing I could care less who ends up carrying it around. So long as it doesn't start heading into a fight in here, I'll just mind my own business here. Though if it does head that way..." she pauses for a moment. "Either we somehow stop them or I have the feeling we're all getting the boot from this place."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"I don't... really think I could stop Ash if she decided to go for it... Could you stop, uh, whatever her name is?"
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"Gawen is her name. As for stopping her, the two of us would be in all sorts of trouble if I wasn't able to. That being said, I'm not convinced I could stop a full-scale brawl myself if it were to come to that," she responds, taking a deep breath afterwards and looking towards the abbess.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281660117811200/Basedtroub-ec.png)
"How do you think the abbess is feeling about all of this?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Probably wishing she'd never let us in..."
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"Yeah. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if she just had someone from the abbey deliver the thing," she sighs, taking a glance around. "Your group seems to be an interesting bunch. You said you were employed under the Alvadan rulers correct? Were they aware of this jewel at all, or did you happen upon it while on some other mission?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"We... found it. We're... well, we're privateers. I guess lots of people would call us pirates, but we're not. But we were commandeering a Domarian merchant ship and an old man who seemed... crazy had the orb. So we took it since it seemed important."
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"I see. Now I'm hoping the man's craziness was caused more by his age than the orb. I'd rather not have this become an everyday occurrence. I say as if it's not already one for me." she muses, mumbling the last part to herself.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"At any rate, what led you to becoming a privateer for the Alvadan rulers if I may ask?" she says, trying to get her mind off of the other train of thought she was heading towards.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Ah, that's... Uhm..."
Lysander stared at the ground for a few seconds, clearly trying to gather up the nerve to say something.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"I'm from a merchant family. From Zeekonrik. But my family's ship... I guess the easiest way to explain is they rescued me off one of the pirate ships they fought. I was being forced to heal them and Ethan and his crew saved me. So I chose to join their crew to help pay back everything I owe them."
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281660117811200/Basedtroub-ec.png)
"Oh. I see," she replied, unsure how to properly respond. Her mind wandered to what may have become of his family, but she wasn't about to pry into that any further.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"Well, since you were kind enough to humor my request, would you like to hear a bit of how I ended up with Gawen?
-
She didn't push. He was grateful for that. Instead she offered an alternative.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Yes, I would like that a lot. Have you known her for a long time?"
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281661879287808/Basedtroub-ec1.png)
"The two of us have known each other for quite some time now. Back then, before we met, most of my time was spent working on healing magic. At some point, there was a local tournament of sorts, and I volunteered as one of the on-duty healers. Gawen happened to be competing at the time, and as I was treating her she offered me work as a retainer. Since then, the two of us have been with each other through thick and thin. Mostly thick, but nothing too terrible yet," she chuckles, recalling some of the other incidents the pair have gotten involved with.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"At any rate, that's the story. Now I work primarily as Gawen's retainer and keep her from getting into too much trouble, but I also still work on my magic when I get the opportunity." she finishes.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"I noticed your staff work, yes. Though you also seem to fight. I... just recently decided to try and fight as well. I'm sticking with knives though. Swords are too heavy for me."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Ashlyn will keep it."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): It's settled, then? I don't want any fights inside here so if you still have a problem take it outside, but I'll send someone with you to make sure you don't all end up forgetting your part. Vortai! Where are you, boy?
The abbess went out of the room again, and soon returned with a covered up acolyte and a tome under her arm.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): It's time for you to leave and work the field, and this is the perfect chance. Make sure the orb is safe and practice what you have learned here.
//Vortai Torrskel is in!
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): And you Amberly, you should go with them as well. I'm making you an acolyte of the House of Scholars right now, as an emergency procedure. Try to prevent them from killing each other at least until the orb is safe, and tell the royal guard to take you two to the expeditions to retrieve the treasures. Consider this as your initiation.
The abbess gave the tome and a small blessing to Amberly.
Amberly gets Sacred Fire!
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): If you don't have any more questions, you should get out before you disturb my students too much.
Finally, the orb and the maps went to Ashlyn, and the abbess took a seat in one of the chairs around the table.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Pleasure." Ethan did a mocking bow.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "We're leaving, people." He turned to Gawen and her bodyguard. "To be sure there's no misunderstanding: You're joining my crew or just tagging along?"
-
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "I will do my best, Abbess."
I just hope it will be enough.
-
Vortai nodded as soon as he received the new task and performed a brief bow to greet the strangers.
(http://i.imgur.com/WrKKoxs.png) "Will do, Abbess. Greetings, my name is Vortai Torrskel."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"I shall be 'tagging along' as you say. Particularly as you've yet to actually offer any of the proof I've requested. I'm simply interested in ensuring that this orb gets to where it must, and in retrieving the other treasures as needed."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Don't worry, I will make sure to sell it to its proper owners. Or at least demand a hefty 'return fee'. You have my word!"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"I sincerely hope that is a joke. Not that I am particularly keen on joking about matters involving the end of the world as we know it."
-
Ethan grimaced and then pulled out a small, rolled up paper from inside his vest.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "You can read it." He opens up the paper but didn't let it go. The paper was a contract between Alvadan Admiralty and Ethan, detailing his priviledges, goals, guarantees and tax cuts for his 'job'.
-
Gawen couldn't help but let a faint expression of distaste cross her face - was it really shocking that the noblewoman wasn't fond of discovering they were privateers? - but she quickly smoothed it over as she nodded.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Very well then. Everything seems to be in order. I'll make no further protests, unless I'm given reason to."
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"Yes, I tend to lean towards heavier weapons myself. It's a personal preference really," she responds before Ethan and the abbess handle matters. Angelica quietly let out a sigh of relief on not being kicked out, and another when Ethan did show proof of their employment to Gawen. The last thing she needed was a fight to break out.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"I suppose this means I'll also be tagging along then."
-
Ethan grumbled and hid the paper back into his clothes. The less people knew about the contract, the better.
He then led the others outside, where he motioned Ashlyn and Claude closer.
-
Ashlyn hid her smug smile as she accepted the orb and maps from the Abbess. And in the end, the noble got her proof so hopefully the matter would stay settled. As they left the House of Scholars she thought now would be a good time to get some practice in with Lysander but Ethan motioned her to the side.
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"What is it captain?"
-
Now that they were outside again, Angelica remounted her horse and went towards Lysander.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"Guess we'll be tagging along for a while now. Incidentally, you mentioned that you recently tried to learn how to fight? If you'd like I could offer some assistance. she asks him now that they will be traveling together.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Ah, well, Ashlyn had also offered to help me, but I don't see why you can't both. Especially since she uses axes and I think that swords might be slightly closer to knives? Maybe?"
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"I don't see why we both couldn't help you. And while swords are a little closer to knives I think, getting experience from other weapon users could be beneficial," she replies in a cheery tone before chuckling a bit.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281661879287808/Basedtroub-ec1.png)
"That being said, my swords are considerably heavier than the standard knife would be, so the differences are still there. If that doesn't matter too much to you though, I'd be happy to assist your training"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Yeah, I think that would be nice! And if there's anything I can do to help you, please let me know?"
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281661879287808/Basedtroub-ec1.png)
"Wonderful! As for something you could do, perhaps you could aid me on some of my own work. I mentioned that I did some work with healing magic earlier,
and having someone else who can use that magic as an aid would be quite nice. Is that acceptable? she asks, hoping her request isn't too unreasonable.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Oh, of course. Always happy to help with that. Have you been studying healing magic for a long time?"
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"Since I was young actually. I had an affinity for it and I personally enjoyed working with it. So much so, that I exhausted most of the resources available to try and study it. My town had some clerics I could learn from initially, but it didn't have all that much for studying healing magic to the degree I wanted. That's partially why I ended up leaving home to travel," she explains.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"Being able to travel has been good for my work, and improving my skills will be quite a benefit to myself and others," she finishes, taking a glance at Gawen.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"I very much agree. I know that working with the crew has really helped my abilities. I'm sure having someone to bounce ideas off of and train with will help even more. I even have this idea... Basically, I store a certain amount of healing magic inside my own body. And then if I get hurt too badly, I can use it to heal myself enough to keep myself standing. It's not perfect, and I won't always be able to react quickly enough, I don't think, but it's worth a try, you know?"
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281658209533953/Basedtroub-4.png)
"Oh? That sounds like it could be quite useful if successful. Though as much as I'm interested in studying it, the means of which that would be accomplished wouldn't be something I'm too keen on trying myself for obvious reasons," she says as she frowns a bit. As interesting as this method sounds, she's not willing to smack Lysander with a sword to see how it works, and especially not after the earlier tension.
-
Claude joined Ashlyn and Ethan after he was invited closer.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Under no circumstances the orb is to ever get into Gawen's hands. Claude, you watch Ashlyn's back carefully. Alright?"
-
Gawen side-eyed the three as they gathered up, seemingly whispering to one another. She moved closer to her retainer as they traveled, who seemed to be engaged in conversation with, to be blunt, the least-untrustworthy-looking member of the group.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Angelica. Pardon my brief interruption, but I would like to speak with you about a matter of some importance soon. Feel free to continue your conversation through its natural course, however."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"She'd have to take it over my dead body, captain."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Great. We can move on then."
-
Gawen's request was a bit sudden, but she was glad that it wasn't immediate.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"Very well. When I'm free we can talk. Don't get yourself in another fight in the meantime alright?" she responds before turning her attention back to Lysander.
-
Gawen nodded.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Good."
She drifted away from Angelica and Lysander, not wishing to intrude on the conversation. The noblewoman somewhat aimlessly looked about, searching for someone that she could speak with. Gawen was interested to learn more about this group of privateers, as distasteful as she found the practice; both out of simple curiosity about the people she would be traveling alongside and out of a slightly more practical need in case they decided to dispose of her somehow. Unfortunately, she wasn't sure which of them was openly hostile to her or not, which left her coming up rather blank as to who should be approached.
-
Amberly sighed. Even for someone with as little experience with strangers as herself, she could tell that things were likely going to be difficult between the privateers and the newcomer noblewoman. The nun half-wished that the Abbess had found someone else for this particular assignment.
-
Alain said nothing all throughout the.... discussion of who would carry the orb, nor did he say anything as they walked out of the tower and back into the desert sands. He didn't care, honestly- what he wanted was to do the job he was hired for and get just compensation, their spat had neither hide nor hair to do with that.
Or at least, he most certainly hoped it wouldn't. Would be just his luck if it did though. Sighing, he continued to thumb through the pages of the newly acquired tome; just as he'd assessed during the battle, the thing really was nothing than a slightly modified Fire spell...
The wizard's scrawled notes however, were quite fascinating- bits and pieces of general magic theory he'd never had the chance to train in... not that he had any intention of beginning now. That ship had long since sailed, as far as he was concerned. None of this had ever been an exact science to him- trial and error perhaps, yes, but that was as close as it ever got... sheer resolve was what had guided his hands all those years, not some expensive formal knowledge.
Still, it was leagues more engaging than the obvious air of mistrust between his employers and one of their new companions.
-
Now that she was free from Ethan's need to tell her something she would've done anyway, Ashlyn decided that it was a good time to help Lysander practice with his knifes. However, someone had beat her to it! Well, that had never stopped her before.
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"Oi, Lys, you up for some training? Er, if you're not in the middle of something else, that is."
-
Vortai now understood why he was called for this task, with how the group was behaving and apparently oblivious of his arrival yet. It was awkward to follow a group without knowing anything about them, but the safety of the orb was still priority. Plus this did sound like the opportunity he was looking for; practice what he learned and possibly learn more.
(http://i.imgur.com/WrKKoxs.png) "May I know where your group found this orb? I am honestly curious how you managed to reach it."
-
Ethan moved closer to Vortai after hearing the question.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Got it from a crazy old man on a ship we plundered."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/WrKKoxs.png) "That is very unexpected, but I am glad it is not on their hands anymore."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Well it's all just theory for now. Hopefully I don't have to use it, you know?"
They were then interrupted by a couple of people, but he only needed to respond to one.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Huh? Oh, ah, yeah! Uh, Ashlyn, this is Angelica. She's offered to help me with training too. I though that it might be nice to have training from a couple different people, right? I mean, you two fight differently since you use different weapons so it can't hurt... Plus I can help her with healing too!"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/MLBYo9B.png)"Yeah, that makes sense. And we probably have different ideas on how to train you."
Ashlyn extended a hand to Angelica.
(https://i.imgur.com/g6Ul2ug.png)"Let's work together, yeah?"
She tossed a pouch to Lysander and grabbed what was essentially a wooden club.
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"If you're ready we can start now, Lys."
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"That sounds fine to me," she responds, shaking Ashlyn's hand. She then grabs her staff just in case as Ashlyn and Lysander prepare for the training.
-
For his part, Claude had his notebook out and was writing the unexpected costs that the addition of yet more people to the group brought. If they kept picking up people at that pace, in a year's time he'd have become the logistics officer for Ethan's new mercenary band. He hoped the noblewoman and her retainer didn't have any special requests when it came to accommodations, or even better, that they'd be able to pay for themselves for as long as they remained attached to the crew.
At least he couldn't complain about most of the additions, they seemed perfectly content with what they were provided, or at the very least no one had turned up to complain to him. Which was great, because he'd hit them in the face with his accounting books if they decided to get uppity and demand privileges.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "So Lavinia... Are you sad you didn't get the perfect excuse to brawl a little?"
-
Opening up the pouch, Lysander found a handful of carved wooden daggers. Smiling, he attached the pouch to his belt, pulling one of them out before he did.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Did you make these for me? That's really sweet of you. I... I really appreciate it."
If he was being honest, it had been a long time since someone had given him any sort of gift even if these were intended to help train him. It was still a wonderful gesture as far as he was concerned. Tightening his grip on the dagger, he shifted so his feet were matching her ready stance, arm in front of his face, dagger blade pointed towards her.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"I think this is how I hold it? How do we start this?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "I'm crying on the inside right now." Lavinia leaned against the wall, watching the others for a moment before turning her attention back to Claude. "How about you? You just looking for a chat?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/g6Ul2ug.png)"It's no problem, Lys. Gave me something to do, ya know?" She didn't show it, but she was actually relieved that Lysander liked them.
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"Well I was thinking we just fight until one of us falls over... Oh! Gimme a sec."
With practised precision, Ashlyn undid the straps and buckles holding her armor in place and set it aside. For good measure, she took off her gauntlets too.
(https://i.imgur.com/TGY5s4P.png)"It wouldn't be fair if you had to get through my armor with those wooden daggers. But, uh, they're still kinda sharp so watch where you aim, please. I'll let you have first strike," she said as she slipped into her stance, looking much smaller without all her armor.
-
Lysander couldn't help but smile slightly at the sight of her without her armor. She was as skinny as him without all of it. Though thinking about that, it was pretty impressive she could move so easily in all of that with how skinny she was. He was pretty sure he would fall over trying to wear even half of that...
Shaking himself out of his thoughts, he gave her a nod, and then dashed forward with a horizontal slash aimed for her stomach area. He knew he could just throw the knife but that would sort of ruin the whole point of this exercise.
-
Ashlyn regretted not dulling the wooden knives almost immediately. She hadn't expected Lysander to charge her right off the bat. Maybe after she had rushed him she might've expected a counter but nope. He just rushed right at her and she missed her block. She was actually bleeding a little. Those daggers were definitely getting dulled before next time.
(https://i.imgur.com/dPdiLpL.png)"That stings! You don't actually have noodle arms!"
Rather than try to get some distance from Lysander and his pointy objects of pain, Ashlyn simply swung the club at his side. Even if she'd, stupidly, given him an advantage she knew he wasn't as experienced as her. She didn't want to just crush him.
-
Lysander froze as she yelled at him, just long enough for the club to land solidly in his side, knocking the wind out of him. Staggering a few steps back, he launched the knife at her, aiming for her arm but mostly just trying to get some space to catch his breath.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Looking for something to distract me while I take care of accounting. By now it's second nature so I can do it without paying too much attention to it." Claude replied as he kept writing in his notebook.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Lys and Ashlyn seem to have given us something to watch, though."
-
Amberly approached Claude nervously.
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "The Abbess just sort of assumed I would be going with your crew, but she can't really force you to bring me on this quest. Will there be any problems with me tagging along for a while longer?"
-
Claude's gaze moved away from Lysander's training match and to the nun.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Oh no, Amberly. I might not be the captain, but you've been very helpful and you're likely welcome to stick around until your journey's done."
-
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "Thank you. I will be ready to leave when Captain Ethan is."
Amberly returned to her seat, feeling cautiously optimistic. She split her attention between studying her new tome and watching Lysander's training.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/WrKKoxs.png) "I will admit that Abbess' decision was very sudden, so unfortunately I am not carrying much either. Well, aside from a few books and a tome."
-
If Ashlyn was aware of the ever-growing crowd watching her and Lysander she didn't show it. She was, however, worried about how Lysander had frozen in place for a second. Unfortunately, now was hardly the time to get distracted. Lysander's dagger caught her arm and added to the pain she hadn't expected he was capable of inflicting on her with mock weapons.
She wasn't just going to let him back off though, no one in a real fight would. She more or less jumped at him; her swing was telegraphed and her course unchanging. She hoped it would give Lysander a clear enough sign to dodge.
-
Ethan was busy thinking and considering his options for a long while. The training fight nearby didn't make his eyes wander - even if there was a lot for eyes to wander at - but instead helped him concentrate. Finally, he stepped closer to the rest of the crew.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "We will keep the orb and use it to find the royal treasures. All of them."
-
Lysander had started to take another step back when Ash jumped straight at him. In an attempt to twist away, he ended up getting his legs all tangled up and ended up collapsing as Ash's club thudded into his shoulder. In an attempt to stay up, they grabbed at her arm, but ended up just bringing both of them down into a tangle on the ground. Embarrassed at their mistakes, they buried their head in their hands, refusing to even look at Ashlyn much less talk to her after that.
-
It happened too fast for Ashlyn to understand what had really happened. She saw her hit connect with Lys' shoulder and suddenly she was on top of him. She hadn't really thought about it until now, but Lys wasn't actually much bigger than her. He wasn't much taller, she knew she could still grow, and his frame was pretty similar to hers. She shook her head; why should she care about that?
She managed to roll herself off of him after a little time untangling her limbs from his.
(https://i.imgur.com/eJmqfRp.png)"You okay, Lysander? I didn't think I'd hit you hard enough to make you collapse like that. Sorry."
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281656330223617/Basedtroub-3.png)
"Oh my!" she could only gasp as she saw Lysander and Ashlyn fall and get tangled up. She took a brief note of both of their reactions before realizing that the rest of the group happened to be watching. Moving towards them, she healed the both of them before kneeling in front of Lysander to hopefully keep him from noticing the crowd.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"That was quite a blow and a fall. Are you alright Lysander?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Ugh, that was dumb. You didn't hit me, I just... tripped over my own two feet... Thanks Angelica..."
Dejectedly standing to their feet, they looked over towards Ethan in time to see a fair amount of the group just standing around watching them.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Ah, were they... watching... No, ha..."
His face quickly turned bright red as he realized he'd made a fool of himself in front of the whole crew. Collapsing back down into a sitting position, he quickly covered up his face again and just shook his head.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Good to know everyone knows how bad of a fighter I am now... And my inability to stay on my own two feet."
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"If it means anything, for someone who's only recently took up arms, I'd say you did alright. And besides, you're training in order to improve yourself. Nothing wrong with a mistake or two, so long as you work on them." she says, trying to comfort Lysander, who did manage to hold his own a fair bit before the tumble.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281663401951233/Basedtroub-ec2.png)
"It must feel bad for something like that to happen in front of the others, but nobody should hold you trying to improve against you. And if they do, then I'll have a little chat with them. So long as you still want to improve, you can, and I'll do my best to help. Alright?
-
They were being watched? Ashlyn sat up and looked around only to have her fears confirmed. A slight blush appeared on her face as she realized they had seen her linger on Lysander. However, Lysander's opinion of himself snapped her out of her monetary embarrassment.
(https://i.imgur.com/TGY5s4P.png)"No one starts out as a master, Lys. No matter what they do they always start out as a novice."
She looked at the ground.
(https://i.imgur.com/8cygAgq.png)"I probably shouldn't have been you first opponent anyway. Or I should've held back, or something. It wasn't really fair to you for me to go all out when you're just starting."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"No... I shouldn't need protecting. And Ash, it's fine. I'd rather you went hard on me so that I knew what to expect. If you're easy on me, what will that do to me when I'm facing a real opponent?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/TGY5s4P.png)"There is a limit to what you can learn from being overpowered by brute strength. That's not the only thing though, Lys. You froze for a second, don't think I didn't realize."
(https://i.imgur.com/8cygAgq.png)"If... If you're scared to fight me, I understand.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"What? No, it's not you. It's just... I spent a large amount of time around people using axes... I can't... I don't react well around pirates. For a second... Your axe... Everything just sort of hit me at once. I'm sorry..."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2y0gxe3gf2iirh1/ch2b.png?raw=1)
After the two were done horsing around, Ethan rounded up the crew and together with the mercenaries and the traveling knight and her retainer made their way back to the port city of Di. It was time to buy supplies, prepare the ship for a long travel.
And of course, to find out their destination.
-
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): I wonder if I should tell the Matron Mother about my new assignment...
(https://s19.postimg.org/6vvd9wk8z/amberly_veilangry.png): ...No. She would probably try to forbid me from leaving. I'll just let the Abbess explain things, assuming the Matron Mother even realizes I'm over-due.
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "If someone would be so kind as to escort me to your ship, I'd like to get my things stowed."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Sure, I can show you the way. So... how long have you been a nun?"
Lys started to lead Amberly towards the ship as he questioned her.
-
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "Technically I'm not a full nun yet. The Temple of Di is very...old-fashioned. Newcomers are considered initiates for a full fifteen years before they take their final vows and become full-fledged nuns or priests. They want to make sure that you really are dedicated, I suppose. I joined them when I was ten, so that would be...thirteen years now?"
What about you? I know your combat training started just recently, but how long have you been a healer?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Oh, I see. A long time then. Well... I started training with my grandmother when I was about... 7? So around eleven years I guess. And yeah... Combat is a new thing. It was never something I could... focus on. Until now."
-
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "That's a respectable amount of time, and it shows in your skill. I'm confident that you'll pick up fighting quickly!"

Having arrived at the port city of Di, Angelica seeks out Gawen to speak to her about some matter.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"Hello, you mentioned a while ago that you wanted to talk?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Yes. If you would. . ." Gawen led Angelica a short distance into the crowd, pitching her voice low to avoid being listened in on.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"I do not trust this group, royal employ or no. There is a strong chance they may be plotting against me, perhaps out of some belief that I will endanger their fortune. If they do betray me. . . If you can, I need you to get out as quickly as possible. Do not waste time attempting to save me; seek out my father immediately and tell him my fate and what you know of their next plans." She paused for a moment, seemingly considering her next words. Then, she shook her head.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Do you understand?"
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281658209533953/Basedtroub-4.png)
"Personally I think that you're overreacting just a tad. Given recent events and whatnot, the others are probably wary of you, but I don't quite see them taking such drastic action. However, in the event that something does happen, I'll make sure that both of us escape and inform your family of what happened. Don't think for a moment that I plan on abandoning you. Got it?" she responds with a stern voice before lightening up a bit.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"Now, while we're in town, would you like to go for a bit of window shopping?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "It is shopping time yet again and the smith here is as hard as a deal as there can be. I admit there could be better situations." Claude commented as he mentally started cracking numbers.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Angelica, I am serious. This is something far more important than my own life, and I don't want you throwing yours away in a pointless attempt to rescue me if it comes to it. No, I am not convinced that they would stray that far, but it is better to prepare for the worst and waste the effort than not prepare and wish you had."
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281667000795143/Basedtroub-ec4.png)
"I won't be throwing away my own life, but I'm certainly not going to let you throw away yours. No ifs, ands, or buts. If I'm unable to save you, then that's how it is, but I'm certainly not going to abandon you. Alright? she states in a much firmer tone than before.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281658209533953/Basedtroub-4.png)
"Now I understand that you have your opinions about this group, but at the very least try not to put too much suspicion on yourself. Some of them are probably as distrusting of you as you are of them, and the last thing we need is that distrust going too far. Otherwise they may actually go that far. So for now, just wait, watch, and come shopping with me, alright?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"A fair point. I, for one, have no plans on acting against them unless they prove themselves beyond a reasonable doubt to be villains. But yes, let us go. It never hurts to be ready for another fight." She threw in a small grin at Angelica with this last.
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281663401951233/Basedtroub-ec2.png)
"Hopefully the next fight won't be one you helped cause. But yes, let's see what the shops around here have to offer." she says with a smile as the pair go out to find some decent shops.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"I didn't cause the last one! It was already started when I arrived."
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281660117811200/Basedtroub-ec.png)
"Yes, yes," Angelica laughed a bit, as the two went out in search of some decent shops.
-
Eventually, Amberly and Lysander (and anyone else who sneakily came along?) arrive at the docks.
(https://s19.postimg.org/f99btb0cj/amberly_veilhappy.png): "I've never been on a ship before! Which one is yours?"
-
Ethan, who did sneakily tag along with the most important of his crew (and Amberly), pointed at the docks.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "That one." His finger was pointing at two large caravels, with additional crew and ballistas and...
No no, not these ones.
To a pier behind them, there was a small carrack, moored with a single line. In fact, one could easily hide it in one of those caravels.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Ain't Blackbones a beauty?"
-
Amberly, having absolutely no experience with seacraft, beamed behind her veil.
(https://s19.postimg.org/f99btb0cj/amberly_veilhappy.png): "It looks like a lovely ship. I'll get my things" - a small bag containing little more than a few books and some changes of clothes - "stowed right away. Perhaps then we'll have time to walk around the city before we depart?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Of course! I wanted to walk around a bit as well. I think Angelica might have been going shopping as well. We could try and meet up with her if you wanted. Or just go by ourselves. Maybe Ashlyn or some of the others would join up with us?"

The pair looked through the shops, each with some rather useful equipment. A few things caught Angelica's eye, but mindful of the amount of money they had, she decided to hear whether Gawen found something that suited her.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"Well Gawen, did you find something you like?
-
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "That sounds like fun. I'll be back momentarily."
Amberly scampered aboard the Blackbones, finding a safe place to stash her personal belongings. She held onto her tomes, however; after the poor showing the city guard had made last time, Amberly wanted to be able to protect herself in case of danger.
That task done, she returned to Lysander ready to explore the city and do some window shopping.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Does anyone need something? I suppose Marlow could use throwing knives and Lavinia's lance has seen better days." Claude asked as he checked his notes.
-
Wandering through the city with Amberly, Lysander glanced in at the staff shop before shaking his head and continuing on.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"So if you've just been a student before this, how does it feel to be trusted to be a part of a mission like this? I'm guessing it was not what you expected..."
-
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "No, not at all. It's a little terrifying, to be honest. I can think of at least three full-fledged nuns that would probably be better suited for the job." Amberly paused at the entrance to a book store, gazing longingly inside before hurrying to catch up. "Still, we're taught that the Old Gods work in subtle ways. It may well be that Mantorok has a purpose for me on this mission."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "Oh well." With the absence of input, Claude started working on a preliminary purchase list...
Party Gold: 1835g
Iron Lance 440g
Iron Knife 420g
Barrier 570g
Remaining: 405g

Maria had mostly been in shock the entire time. Going into a temple of magic and being told that this orb that had been found on some pirate ship was going to be used to unite treasures that'll SAVE THE WORLD? She hadn't been paying the most attention, but this was still huge. Ophia had at least calmed down now, yet this journey was obviously going to involve a lot of magic... Maria figured that she should at least talk to someone that used it.
Before long she found the Anima mage... Oh, what was his name, Alain? Something like that; she idly heard it when they were being hired. With a deep breath and slightly shaking legs, she greeted him.
(https://i.imgur.com/CtATPoj.png) "Erm, um... Hi, you're Alain, right? I'm Maria, mind if I chat for a bit?"
The girl's usually cheery demeanor was replaced by stumbling over words and barely being audible. Partly from the fact that this was a mage she was talking to, and partly because Alain seemed... Was intense the way to put it? Perhaps confident, but in an "I know what I'm doing, don't try to stop me!" way? Intimidating, that was it!
-
(https://i.imgur.com/HhbFMHc.png)"Hrm?" the mage looked up from his reading material as the girl approached, for once not the tome that had been pilfered off the wizard, but rather... some type of letter? He folded it away before she had much chance to look however, "Aye, Alain's the name... Maria eh? Yes, I think I recall now. And no, I don't mind at all- not like us mercenaries have much else to do but wait as our employers get ready. Go on, shoot."
He noted her general unease, but didn't see much point commenting on it at the moment. She was probably just green to this line of work, perhaps, a bit unsure of herself. Understandable, given this had officially gone from a simple escort job to a mission that supposedly involved the fate of the world itself.
At least, that's what he figured would be the topic here...
-
Once she got acknowledged, her unease went from the variant of being barely able to talk to talking a mile a minute. A few words got mangled together, but it was still comprehensible... Probably.
(https://i.imgur.com/KECcMdO.png) "Well, basically, with the whole deal of us having to go find magical weapons or treasures 'r something that control the fate of the world and we're gonna have to go all over to find them and the orb to find them is magic and-" She somehow stopped herself before she got out of hand.
(https://i.imgur.com/mlU68h8.png) "Er, we have to deal with a lot of magic, and well... I hate it, it's a bunch o' separate forces that can easily kill things with a flick of the wrist, and it looks hard to control and things go badly when it does go out of control..." She was probably talking his face off, wasn't she...
What a great way to start a conversation, wasn't it? Hopefully, she wouldn't do this every time...
(https://i.imgur.com/CtATPoj.png) "How does that even work!" She still found the mage a little intimidating, magic aside. At the very least, it could be worse...
-
(https://i.imgur.com/m24zZD6.png) "I....see," he said, taken aback just a bit with the flurry of her words. For the most part though, he'd gotten the gist "A bit apprehensive about the Arcane? Fair enough I suppose... just about anything can be intimidating if you aren't certain how or why it works. I'm probably not the best to ask about the in-depth workings of magic- I've never received a formal bit of training in my life, but I'll do my best."
He held up a hand, made as if he were going to snap his fingers, then seemed to think better of it and lower his arm back to his side.
(https://i.imgur.com/m24zZD6.png)
"Hmmm... on second thought, perhaps a demonstration would... not be optimal, in your case. Well, no matter, not like it's terribly necessary to understanding this."
(https://i.imgur.com/HhbFMHc.png)"Now, I assume you've at least heard of spirits, yes? All different types of them, Anima, Divine, Dark, etcetera? Well if not: the basic idea behind magic is that in all things, there's a small well of energy, and to each thing, there is also some sort of spirit attached, and these spirits differ depending on what exactly it is. Things related to the natural world for example, such as the primary elements of Fire, Thunder, and Wind, are governed by Anima Spirits, while things of more... esoteric natures are the domain of Divine and Dark spirits.
Anyone with at least of bit of talent for reaching out to these spirits, such as myself, can become a mage. And regardless which particular path they go down, all mages operate on the same fundamental principles: we create effects in the physical world by entreating with these governing spirits, using objects such a tomes, staves, and the like, as guides and focusing mediums to assist us. Those are the basics at least, it of course can, and does, go far deeper. Regardless, do you have any questions so far, Maria?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Hmm, well there was that other one sent with us. I... don't remember his name if I'm being honest. But maybe you two were sent both because you'll be helpful, but also because it will be good for you. You'll get experience and that sort of thing."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/m24zZD6.png) "I....see," he said, taken aback just a bit with the flurry of her words. For the most part though, he'd gotten the gist "A bit apprehensive about the Arcane?

Maria flinched a little when the mage raised his arm, and it admittedly made her a bit more uneased at first. After the explanation, she seemed to have calmed down a little, but she was still on edge. She was intrigued, but cautious, having heard it before that it had something to do with spirits but not quite knowing how.
Quite frankly, it left her with more questions than answers, but if she was to ask all of her questions, it would be a never ending spiral and Alain would probably get tired quickly, so she asked only one.
(https://i.imgur.com/CtATPoj.png)"...You said etcetera for spirit types after the main three; how many even ARE there?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/m24zZD6.png)"A good question," the mage answered "It's a question of how things should be classified and whose theories are actually correct, really. From what all that I've managed to procure and read over the years, it seems the commonly held belief among academics is that there are three, but then there are others who contest otherwise.
The followers of the old and new gods alike for example, some assert that their deities are inherently separate from mere spirits, on a higher plane altogether. While Others counter with what those followers would essentially deem sacriledge, by saying the gods and spirits are not infact separate, but one in the same. Yet still, other, less common arguments claim that, while deities and divine spirits are one in the same, the divines have some sort of tiered hierarchy which separates them into orders of magnitude, gods at the top, and lesser servant divines at the bottom.
Then there seems to be similar arguments for how Dark spirits are organized, debates as to whether they are the inherent antithesis of gods and divine spirits or something else. As I said, what I shared with you earlier is merely the basics of magic- it can, and does, get quite a bit more complicated the deeper into things you delve. I simply used 'etcetera' to fill in the many possible blanks that I myself lack the concrete answers to right now."
(https://i.imgur.com/HhbFMHc.png)"Anyway, do you have anything else on your mind regarding magic?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/KECcMdO.png)"For now, no. At the very least, you've probably had enough of my blabbering about this thing... I should really get over it..." The rider sighed a little, but she smiled at him shortly after.
(https://i.imgur.com/CtATPoj.png) "Obviously, whether Ophia catches on quickly is another question entirely, but she shouldn't throw me off,"
(https://i.imgur.com/qLn1H6S.png) "Thank you so much; I definitely owe you one at some point! Just let me know whenever you need anything." Her demeanor turned on a dime as per usual, but she did seem pensive. She just had to keep in mind it was spirits... Just spirits... Whatever little bit helped, she supposed. She still had so many questions, but those would most likely saved for another time. Granted, she was most likely not going to remember everything. Agh, she was getting ahead of herself by now. Maria just hoped that she'd be able to keep it in mind in the heat of battle.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/HhbFMHc.png)"Don't mention it," The mage nodded "My sisters used to ask the same types of questions, when we were all younger... it's really nothing. If you ever have anything else to ask about it, feel free to come find me again and I'll answer to the best of my knowledge. You might also benefit from talking to a few of the other magic users with us, by the way; What I've managed to find and study over the years has been fairly general, and I only went with the Anima magic because they were the only type of tomes I had available. The others are properly far more specialized in their fields, and have their own interesting perspectives to share on the subject."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Ashlyn." Ethan moved up to one of his crewmates.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "I remember correctly you have the map the Abbess gave us?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Hmm, well there was that other one sent with us. I... don't remember his name if I'm being honest. But maybe you two were sent both because you'll be helpful, but also because it will be good for you. You'll get experience and that sort of thing."
Amberly cocked her head to the side at that, considering.
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "Hm. Yes, that does make sense. They say there's nothing like hands-on experience...and if I may be allowed a moment of immodesty I can state with certainty that my magical abilities have grown more on this one trip than they have in the past year. I imagine that's not uncommon when you're actively putting your training to use."
-
Ashlyn took the maps out of her pack.
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"Yeah, got 'em right here captain. Planning on heading out soon?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Hm, yes..." Ethan took the maps and began to look over them.
-
Ethan proceeded to line up the orb and the maps as the old abbess told him to, and three sparkles revealed the locations of the Great Treasures of Alvada.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/gkum301yk2n9uoa/mapb.png?raw=1)
Now they had to choose which one to go after first.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Huh." Ethan looked at the map again.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Port Omega, Demon's Grin and Demura. Yes, we will go this route." Then he looked around.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "I think we're missing few of our friends, Ashlyn?"
-
Ashlyn shrugged.
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"They're probably just being quiet, or thinking about the task at hand captain."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "You have to admire such a penny-pinching miser." In the end, with the absence of party input Claude chose to purchase what seemed the most adequate for future needs.
Party Gold: 1835g
Iron Lance 440g
Iron Knife 420g
Barrier 570g
Remaining: 405g
-
As everyone finally gathers 'round the Blackbones to set sail, Claude gets the good stuff and distributes it among the crew.
Party loses 1430 gold.
Lavinia gets Iron Lance.
Marlow gets Iron Knife.
Lysander gets Barrier.

~~Chapter 3: Bon Voyage~~
(http://i.imgur.com/CGhAW3M.png)
And so they sailed towards Port Omega, where the Orb said the first treasure they were going to go after was located. But not even three hours after leaving port, Ethan noticed they were being followed.
The winds were starting to feel strange when Ethan saw not one, but two ships in pursuit of the Blackbones. Despite the caravel's speed, they were quickly catching up to them.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "It seems that we've got some unwanted attention." Ethan patted his belt and looked at it.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Claude, where's my spyglass?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Here. I found it and decided to give it a shine." Claude said as he readily appeared, giving Ethan the required item while holding several parchments in his other arm.
-
Gawen squinted from the deck toward the vessels in question.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Pirates?" she asked simply.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Two ships? Right out the port? Kinda strange if you ask me." Ethan put the spyglass to his eye and tried to spy the flags, if any, or check on the peoples on the deck for armor and markings too.
-
Ethan looked through the spyglass, noticing the Zeekonrik flag on the ship, and ballistas in the smaller ship. Then he looked at the bigger ship and at its helm...

By now the ships were close enough that a boarding was imminent.

As the ships go side to side with the Blackbones Ethan and Carmen have clear sight of each other.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): There he is. Hakim, bring me... Destreza.
Carmen's guard gave her a sheathed sword and went back with the rest. Carmen slowly unsheathed a dark rapier with sinister purple gleam, and turned to the fighters on the deck.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Alright, you Zeekonriak sea dogs! Board Ethan's ship!
Yer not the commander! Why should we follow yer order?
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Because I'm paying your commander, so that makes me your commander's commander. Now go!
The seamen grumbled but did as told, making a way to the Blackbones' deck.
Meanwhile on the ballista ship...

After having to dodge so many projectiles AND still getting hit Vortai slooowly stepped back to get some distance from the line of javelineers.
(https://i.imgur.com/WrKKoxs.png) "...Repositioning might be necessary."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "I wish I could've dodged the first one as well." Claude now had a javelin and a ballista's bolt on his armor, and he wasn't too happy about either.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Tell me about it. . ."
-
Amberly would have commiserated, but she was currently unconscious with a ballista bolt embedded in her shoulder.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Lavinia is faring worse than I am and needs some healing fast, though. Making room." Claude called as he slowly retreated to apply healing to himself.
Claude to N-11, apply vulnerary to self.
-
Maria rode up, trying to keep her horse stable on the sea. She started handing Vortai some medicine, before deciding to try to apply it. It worked, thankfully.
(http://i.imgur.com/CtATPoj.jpg) "Here ya go; do try to be careful!"
She rode back to where she was, ready to go at a moment's notice.

Just as with the horses, the mage felt his focus slowly intensify as threat after threat reared its ugly head. Bobbing and weaving past one assault after another, in time his movements became so fluid it seemed as though he danced his own flames, searing heat and choking fumes consuming one enlisted man after another. Infact, the only ones who were spared his wrath were the Ballisticians on the far deck, and though he'd been able to see and shift out of the path of the first bolt, his own confidence got the better of him.

With no small amount of indignation, he snapped both the head and the flething off, before removing the shaft and applying some of his own flames to seal the wound closed for now. By the time the Knight's retainer rode up, he'd already been searching for another target. Though who was he to shoo her off, if she'd come to help?

(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Were you a cloistered mage?" Claude asked Vortai while his wooden blade dripped with blood from two victims.
By now the businessman-turned-swordsman was wondering whether the lack of armor was allowing the mages of their team to dodge so many hits. While Alain's dexterity could be explained by battle experience—what with the mage already being a mercenary before being hired—now he was being outperformed by someone who had apparently spent their life learning. That did prickle his pride a little.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WrKKoxs.png) "I did indeed spend a good part of my life secluded, yes. At least until I began to roam to seek knowledge in other places, that's why I was residing in the House of Scholars."
Vortai moved a hand under his masked chin to take a moment to ponder.
(https://i.imgur.com/WrKKoxs.png) "...Which did make me recluse yet again. But why do you need that information?"

(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): This is much more than a bounty- Carmen was interrupted by the barrage of magic hitting her, sending her flying to the opposite ship's deck, unconscious.

Marthon went over to the railing and waved his hand at Ethan, while his men at the ballista ship lifted a white flag.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/s9j04e33jvr730a/marthon.png?raw=1): Ethan Valle! That's enough! I have a proposition to make.

(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "And so do I! Surrender immediately, or we will sink your boat with you still on it!"
-
Maria got up... Slowly. She ended up placing her hand on Ashlyn's shoulder to help her get standing. That was a lot of blood on the deck... She hoped the sea would wash it away. What had even happened? She stabbed someone with a sword, there was a ballista... Right. That mage. Even if it was just spirits, those weren't good spirits. She was shaking, though at this point it was mostly from blood loss.
(http://i.imgur.com/KECcMdO.jpg) "Fuck, that hurts... Thanks, Ash. I owe ya one!"
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/s9j04e33jvr730a/marthon.png?raw=1): We... surrender. Men, make sure Carmen and her goons surrender as well. However, as Hakim was the only one still up and about, even the few men left on the other ship could easily restrain him.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/s9j04e33jvr730a/marthon.png?raw=1): I'd like to leave this incident behind us. That woman Carmen has proven nothing but trouble, and I wish no more of that, so I'll take her into custody in the next port. And here-
Marthon lobbed a sack of gold to the Blackbones' deck, spilling quite a few coins.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/s9j04e33jvr730a/marthon.png?raw=1): That's the money Carmen paid us in advance for this ill-fated fight. I neither want it nor deserve it. If you let us go, you can have it.
But there was something else on the deck. Alain could see Carmen dropped a trinket before going up in the air.
Party gets 3000 gold!
Alain gets Dancer's Ribbon!
-
Ethan looked at the money, and rubbed his chin.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "I'm not really sure this is enough... maybe we should sink his ship anyways? What you think, guys?"
-
Alain slammed the tome shut as the last of his flames died, and the threat the woman posed with them. It was only then however that he noticed what the fencer dropped, collecting it into his pocket. Whatever it was, examining it could wait till later.
(https://i.imgur.com/m24zZD6.png)"I'd advise letting them go, boss." he responded to Ethan "A mercenary giving up his coin like that? Well... there aren't many with either the honor or the sense to make the gesture. I've been keeping count of those ballistae shots too, they're either out by now, or nearly so. I don't think he'll give us anymore trouble than we've already gotten. And if he does, well burning to death in a tinderbox at sea is a terrible fate."
-
Amberly looked horrified at the suggestion.
"What? No! They surrendered! There's no need to kill them or destroy their livelihood!"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Listen to your crew, Valle," Gawen said as she hoisted herself up off of the deck using her lance as a prop. "They've paid their peace offering, there is no need for further death."
-
The captain rubbed his face.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "I was hoping to intimidate him into squeezing out another bag of money for us. Oh well... I accept your surrender, good sir seaman."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/s9j04e33jvr730a/marthon.png?raw=1): Let us gather our dead and leave at once.
Marthon rubbed his face in defeat as his men carried the corpses of his other men to his ships, and Carmen and her squad bound in ropes below deck. Then he ordered the remaining mages to blow magic wind onto the ships' sails, speeding away, getting out of sight of Ethan and the crew.
They were free to continue their travel to Port Omega.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WrKKoxs.png) "Are there any other bounty hunters going after your group?"
-
(https://s19.postimg.org/clblu7qf7/amberly_veilce.png): "That was the second group we battled since I joined. I fear there may indeed be more."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WrKKoxs.png) "Well, that's concerning. The bounty must be big if this isn't the first time."
-
Claude waited healing by propping himself back on one knee.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "And Carmen and one of her goons are still alive. Who knows, we might yet see more of her, or from more bounty hunters."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/HhbFMHc.png)"On the subject of that woman, I do beleive she said something along the lines of...what? 'This is about much more than just a bounty'? Something close to that; it was hard to hear exactly, over the roar of our spells blasting her to kingdom come. Either way, I'd hesitate to classify her as a simple Bounty Hunter. Not with skills like those, and not with a weapon like she wielded either..."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WrKKoxs.png) "Those truly are unpleasant news. If she is no ordinary bounty hunter, that means she won't be giving up. And she might end up hiring even more goons too."
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281665247576074/Basedtroub-ec3.png)
"Well, glad that's over with," Angelica mutters as she gets herself and her horse back up. After overhearing some conversation, she looks towards Lysander for some answers.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281658209533953/Basedtroub-4.png)
"So these people came after you before? Do you have any idea what they're after?
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Not really, no. I think they're after our Captain but... It's also possible they're after the orb if they knew we had it... Which is unlikely but possible I suppose."
-
Claude hobbled over to Lavinia's spot, sitting on the deck on a puddle of her blood.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "I think I won this round."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "Good thing I've got wounds, so you can rub salt in them."
There was more joke than bite in her tone. She was still coming off the battle adrenaline, and winning and losing was just part of the competition - she just wished that more of the carnage had her mark on it.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "At least I saw the look on that axeman's face when I took him down. How many did you get?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rZ6iW4V.png) "One more than you did, but I cut down one of Carmen's elite goons."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "Join the club." At least she was pretty sure he had been. Though she couldn't argue with results, she usually preferred to be fighting at closer range... she'd have to give the javelins back in a bit.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "You want to sit? You look like you're about to fall yourself."
-
Claude sat by Lavinia as delicately as he could, more or less crashing ass-first by her side.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Ha. I won't complain if I never see Carmen again. Her appearance is the harbinger of near-death experiences."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "What, did she outduel you?"
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "If we had the time, I'd say we could take her crew to Alvada and see what the admiralty has to say about this. But if she comes at us a third time, it'll end the same."
Always risk when there was a fight. But she'd never paid that risk much heed - she trusted her skill and their crew's skill, and Lysander had never failed them. The new mercs weren't half bad either, now that she'd seen them in a scrap or three.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "We didn't even cross swords, our spellcasters got her. Above all, she's arrogant and annoying."

~~Chapter 4: The Past Calls~~
(http://i.imgur.com/MJGcy6f.png)
Another two days, and they reached Port Omega almost by the evening. What was once one of the most important ports of the pre-Reckoning Alvada, was now nothing more than a village where few people made their lives as fishermen and farmers. Even after the Reckoning it held some importance due to the adventurers and explorers that thought to head east in search of new land, but of the few that returned, none of them told of foreign countries; only of a fog that becomes impossible to traverse.
But now, this small town at the edge of the world became the center of attention when it was marked as the location of one of the lost treasures of Alvada.
The Blackbones reached safely the pier of Port Omega. By this time of the day there wasn't much movement: all shops were closed and people were just idling around chatting or drinking at one of the few remaining taverns. A seagull squawked at the crew when it momentarily landed on one of the ship's railings, by far the most interesting event of that day... yet.
-
Praise be, a safe arrival without attacks by giant sea monsters or further bounty hunters. Amberly began a silent prayer of thanks to Ulyaoth, lord of oceans, for a successful journey.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "I suppose we could always go for a drink. How's your brawling, Lavinia?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Captain, did you have a specific goal in mind first or do we have some free time? If we don't have anything urgent, I may go see if they need my help with healing anywhere here."
-
Lavinia rolled one of her shoulders in anticipation, though she was half-listening to see what Ethan had to say in response to Lysander's question as well.
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png)"Been getting a little rusty. I'm up for changing that."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "I could also get my mind off my face's most recent encounters with the deck."
-
Vortai followed both Claude and Lavinia after remembering something, so instead of pretending to be their shadow, he spoke up to both announce his presence and sate his curiosity.
(https://i.imgur.com/WrKKoxs.png) "Claude, correct? Why did you ask if I was a cloistered mage? "
Considering he desired to blend in with the rest and hopefully "adapt" himself to the society until the time he manages to gain enough power to raise his army of stone soldiers, that question affected him more than it probably should. Was it his outfit? Or did he say something that made it sound obvious he lacked experience in the social field?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "Ah yeah, that."
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "I was just curious about how much combat experience you had."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WrKKoxs.png) "Oh, I see. Probably not as much as this ship's crew, I just had to deal with the occasional robbery attempt when roaming."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "I'm not sure what you bunch really want to do in this backwater, but sure. It seems that for once nobody's chasing us. Few hours loitering around won't hurt anybody." With that, Ethan retreated to his cabin.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "And the captain said we are free to go."
-
With permission given, Amberly decided to go for a walk through the town. Perhaps she would seek out a local temple?
-
Amberly found a small temple away from most of the rest of the buildings in town. The temple looked a bit old and abandoned, but it was still serviceable.
-
Amberly brightened at the sight. It was good to know that even in the literal last point of civilization, the faithful were given a place to worship, even one as...humble as this.
The nun attempted to go inside and see if anyone was there.
-
The door however was locked and wouldn't budge. A random villager taking a walk saw the nun trying to enter.
Tryin' to pay yer respects, eh? Nobody 'ere does that anymore, the people have lost faith in the Ol' Gods, and this temple's pretty much abandoned, 'cept for the occasional traveler like you. Lemme help.
The villager came over and opened up the rudimentary locking system they had put.
The temple may be older than we can remember, but 's still good an' in one piece. Be sure to lock the door when yer finished.
The villager then resumed walking around.
-
So it was completely abandoned? That was a shame.
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "Thank you for your help. I'll be sure to take good care of the place."
The nun walked inside, looking around curiously.
-
The temple contained a few chairs, and a sizable altar in the centre. Some cabinets were around that used to hold whatever idols and paraphernalia the worshippers used in past times, but now it was all gone.
-
The nun examined the alter, curious about how the locals would have made the thing.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Well, Angelica, any ideas on where to start our search?"
-
Upon inspection, the inscriptions on the altar were much more ancient that Amberly thought at first. Written in a forgotten language that, regardless of Amberly's ability to decipher it, revealed that it was built before the Reckoning.
-
Amberly's eyes widened at her discovery, all thoughts of saying some brief prayers before wandering off forgotten. Perhaps it was just a coincidence, but if this altar dated from before the Reckoning, and they were looking for treasures from before the Reckoning, and they had just so happened to have been led to this faraway port...
Suddenly, the nun desperately wished that she had brought someone else along. Captain Ethan - heck, the entire crew probably - should be made aware of this discovery. It could well be a vital clue to their search...but she was worried that if she left the temple, the door would seal shut behind her and they'd have to find another local to open it. Or (and this was a superstitious worry, but one she couldn't dismiss) the altar would vanish into the ether while no one was around to examine it.
Cautiously, the nun peered outside, keeping the door open with her body, and hoping against hope that another one of her party was wandering within hailing distance.
-
With the go-ahead from Ethan, Ashlyn departed the ship and wandered into town. There wasn't much to see, Ethan had called it a backwater for a reason, so she took to wandering the town looking for anything particularly interesting.

"I couldn't say for certain. Perhaps we should walk around and see if we can learn something useful?" Angelica suggests.
-
Gazing outside, Amberly thought she saw the red-haired axewoman from the Blackbones' crew. "Ashlyn", she believed was the name. Still keeping the door open with half her body, the nun waved an arm frantically in a beckoning motion.
-
Ashlyn happened to look over and see the nun, Amberly was it, waving at her for some reason. Whatever the reason for it she seemed to want Ashlyn to come over to her. With nothing better to do, Ashlyn made her way over to the nun.
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"What do you want, did you find something?"
-
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "Yes, I think I did! Did you happen to bring the map and that orb with you?"
-
Ashlyn motioned to her pack.
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"Yes, I always have them on me. You think one of the treasures is in the church?"
-
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "That, or maybe a clue of some sort. Come on in." The nun held the door open for Ashlyn, then followed the other woman inside.
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "This altar...it's incredibly ancient. These inscriptions are from a language that was used before the Reckoning, and was all but lost afterwards."
-
Ashlyn had never been in a church before, she wasn't a religious type, so the sight of the interior was a new experience for her. At least Amberly spoke up soon about where she wanted her to go.
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"So you think the altar is related to the treasure because it's old as bones, right?"
-
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "I...that's one way of putting it, yes. If we are looking for pre-Reckoning artifacts, then perhaps other pre-Reckoning artifacts can lead us to them. That was my logic, anyway..."
Amberly tries to translate the inscriptions.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "And the captain said we are free to go."
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "Let's get a move on, then."
Go search for a tavern.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Remember to at least pick someone who's spoiling for a fight, though truth be told it shouldn't be that hard."
Claude hits the night with Lavinia.
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281660117811200/Basedtroub-ec.png)
"I couldn't say for certain. Perhaps we should walk around and see if we can learn something useful?" Angelica suggests.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"As good of a plan as any, I suppose."
Gawen looks for trouble leads.
-
The streets were quiet, and almost peaceful. There was only the occasional passerby or stray animal to break the silence. She navigated by attempting to follow the sounds of muffled revelry.
As a woman with an armful of vegetables passed them without a second glance, Lavinia turned to Claude.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "This place reminds me of home." The word seemed unfamiliar, not entirely correct, and she paused for a moment before continuing. "Well, where I came from. Maybe it's just the name. Port this, Port that."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "It is the same for me. My parents were privateers and part of my earliest years was spent on decks and docks. I was sent a little further inland for studies, though. How about you?"
As Claude talked, he saw what seemed a good tavern and got inside. It was very late and the place was dimly lit, with old wood and mismatched replacement stools and chairs scattered about the place. It seemed like the most popular watering hole around, as despite the variety of furniture the tables and the counter were good, thick wood and there was a fair selection of bottles behind the barman. The smell of tobacco, drinks and unwashed bodies filled the air, far stronger in the darkest corners. There was the usual assortment of patrons expected in such a place; hardy sailors and fisherman, at least one traveler trying to figure out if they were being ripped off and assorted laborers who wanted a few pints to get their mind off family and work.
Claude went for the counter to get himself some mead, waving to the barman and asking for two mugs while he continued talking with Lavinia. Their armor and weapons made it clear they weren't the average fare, and he was fairly sure they wouldn't just find mercenaries hanging around such a backwater place. Maybe a brawl was out of question.
-
Lavinia wrinkled her nose - not at the smell, but at the fading prospects of an exciting fight, and also having to dredge up something interesting from her previous sedentary life.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "My parents didn't own a ship, they just lived there." She'd never given a thought towards it, but now that she did she started to wonder whether staying near a port was her father's way of staying true to himself. He'd settled down, but every day he had still seen travelers, coming in and out. That hadn't been enough for her, but perhaps it'd been enough for him. "And I only did the schooling that I wanted, which was learning to fight."
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "It's been years since I left. A port's made for leaving, in a way."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "My parents didn't own a ship either. I'm following in their footsteps in a way, even if for a different reason. They actually didn't want me to have the same career as them but..." Claude took a gulp of his mug of mead after the barman gave them their booze.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "And hey, your schooling was good." he added.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "Ha!"
Lavinia took a drink of her mead as well, still halfheartedly scanning the room for a potential contender. She wasn't much for thinking at length, but now that they'd bothered with the past, she was tempted to bother with the future. After this end-of-the-world business. After Ethan became an old man with a long beard and retired from privateering. Or just... when they all went their separate ways, sooner or later. She decided to leave it vague.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "I forget if I've asked - you plan on doing anything with those numbers of yours after all this?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "I did work exclusively with numbers and face-to-face dealing before, but that career was kind of spoiled for me, at least for a while. I need to make sure I can annihilate a whole crew of pirates before I go back into business. "
But truth be told, as he grew stronger Claude started to consider the plight of those who didn't have his luck. He survived his brush with death and used his hard-earned gold to learn swordfighting, purchase armor and join Ethan's crew. Most people didn't get that kind of turn in their lives, they most likely either died or sucked up to the brutes with weapons.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "What, all by yourself? We'd better step up our competition, then."
Not that she remembered what the score was anymore. Too many mulligans.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "We need a good, straightforward competition without ballistae shooting at us while goons mob us from all sides. If the next bunch of enemies could form two orderly lines and come at us, that'd be perfect."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "If only. But you know the bureaucrat's solution wouldn't be worth the challenge, anyway."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "I guess that's right. But unfair competition and all. The last time I won but you were so deep into enemies you spent most of the time being kicked into the deck."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Pff. I've just got to train more, that's all." Always a next step, always a path to getting better. Sometimes she hit a plateau, but she always broke through.
She took another draught of the mead before continuing.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "That's how fighting is. Sometimes they gang up on you. We only wrote off the fights where one of us couldn't even reach them."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "I've been training to dodge more and drop less, too. We should fight back-to-back more, though, given the opportunity. Sticking close to you makes me feel more driven to win."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "You'll just get front row seats to getting showed up."
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "But sure." They could test this out for sure if there was a fight going on... but no. No challenging fights in sight, just the now-empty mug in her hand. "You want another? Or should we head back?"
-
Claude gave another look around and gestured to the barman.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "We might as well drink another one since we aren't getting any good brawls out of this. Heh, and I was the one supposed to be responsible and rein you in."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/iqXiz4P.png) "Hey, I know what I'm doing." Besides looking for a fight, that was. She was the first mate, and for what little it often mattered, she still made sure to keep that in mind.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Seems like you ought to have gone and tried to rein in the others from how much excitement we've been getting. Then again, I don't expect they've gotten up to much."
And at least the company wasn't bad. They ought to have brought in a couple others. Lysander and Ashlyn, maybe - it'd been some time since it'd just been the four of them.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Yeah, I know. And maybe Lysander and Ashlyn are up to something together. You never know."
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "How about your plans for the future? Are you planning on being a privateer until you die?"
-
Lavinia shrugged. There was a pause. She received her second mug of mead.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "I guess not. I'd always figured I'd move on eventually, when I'd seen everything I felt there was to see in this line of work. There's still more inland, you know?"
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "And who knows, Ethan could get rich off saving the world and retire."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "Yeah, inland..." Claude stared at Lavinia for a few seconds.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Just don't leave me behind before I can show you just what a sound defeat looks like."
-
As the crew scattered around to look for something to do, Vortai simply sat on a crate, opened his book and proceeded to read.
(https://i.imgur.com/WrKKoxs.png) "Hmm. I wonder..."
It has been quite a while since he put his feet in a desert, and even with the very hostile ambient he missed it. Perhaps they will pass close to a desert next time, who knows!
(https://i.imgur.com/WrKKoxs.png) "....I probably should get a map at this point."
-
Amberly looked at the inscriptions closely, but they were a bit faded by the passage of time. Trying to feel the engraved letters, Amberly accidentally pressed in a hidden button. The orb that Ashlyn was carrying blinked and the altar started rumbling as it slowly opened up to reveal a set of stairs leading to an underground level.
Amberly could procure a rough translation of the altar script that said "Bring key, press button to reveal trial to strength".
Asking around town, none of the villagers believed there was any sort of treasure in the island. The answers Gawen and Angelica received ranged from various variations of "piss off" to ignoring the inquire for any information about treasures, since any treasure that had been there would have already been appropriated by the locals.
The search led them nowhere, but chances were that they happened to wander near the abandoned temple when they heard rumbling from inside.
Party loses 25 gold! The barman took the price for the mugs as the two chugged them down.
Oi! A burly man approached Claude and Lavinia. Ain't ya part of Ethan's crew?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rZ6iW4V.png) "That's right." What was that? Had trouble found them or was it something else? Maybe Ethan looking for them?
-
Bastard stole me bounty times ago! Yer gonna tell me where he is so I can set things straight! The man rolled up his sleeves as he got ready to beat the answer out of them.
-
Amberly stood up and clapped her gloved hands in excitement.
(https://s19.postimg.org/f99btb0cj/amberly_veilhappy.png): "Ashlyn, we're onto something big here! I don't know what this 'trial to strength' is, but I think it might be a good idea to gather the rest of Captain Ethan's crew. I would be very surprised if this didn't lead us to one of those artifacts we're seeking!"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Well, investigating that will likely be more productive than talking to the lovely townsfolk around here."
Gawen heads into the temple, too.
-
Alain leaned against the ship railing, idly snapping his fingers and letting a small torrent of flames bloom between them while he'd watched the others disembark. The one way he'd occupied himself since he was a boy- except with a bit heat these days than the standard crackle and pop he'd trained himself with. He'd seen enough of backwater towns for one lifetime, and he didn't fancy drinking on the job either.
He smothered the newest burst of flames with his hands, leaving the post. The shaman seemed buried in his book and half the crew had already left. He might as well go see how Maria was doing.
(https://i.imgur.com/HhbFMHc.png)"Seems the Boss has given everyone a little free time" he greeted the Rider with "Not that this place looks terribly interesting. I figured I'd see if you had anymore questions since our talk. Though if not, I still wouldn't mind someone to talk to."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rZ6iW4V.png) "There's only one, Lavinia. I guess he's all yours." Claude commented as he took another sip.
Being that complacent did Claude no favors, even if he was assuming Lavinia would take it from there to keep it a fair one against one and he'd be left unmolested. Instead, he was quite surprised by the sudden sound of rushing wind before his head whipped back from the force of the punch to the side of his head that got him off the chair and down to the floor with a thunderous crash. Luckily he'd just laid down his mug and it only shook atop the counter instead of spilling all over him.
-
This man wanted Ethan? Fat chance he was even going to get past the two of them.
Lavinia didn't bother with words. Though Claude didn't seem down for the count and could very well defend himself if he wanted, she had already popped up from her chair and immediately fired off a straight punch to the man's jaw. The angle was awkward, not enough for a knockout, not even enough to phase him much. But she was grinning now, blood pumping. All too excited at finding the fight she'd been looking for. The return blow caught her in the shoulder, but she dodged a wild followup haymaker before closing the distance to strike again.
-
Claude was once more on the floor and considered the possibility of just getting his mug and finishing his drink from there. It was sad that he was starting to get used to being knocked down... But of course his pride always spoke louder. He grunted as he quickly got back on his feet. The fact Lavinia still hadn't dropped their foe with a shot to the jaw meant the troublemaker was brawnier than the mercenary had initially thought.
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "Hey, I was just..." he said before barely dodging another swing that grazed his cheek. The aggressor seemed pretty confident he could oufight both of them, since he'd taken a more defensive position with his back to the counter. The barman was already going "Out, out if you if you want to fight!" but it wasn't like anyone was going to follow that order.
Claude tried to get his drink and he saw the man tense and twitch. In the end he settled for joining the fight so he could finish his gods-damned mead.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Remember, you asked for this." he said before going almost shoulder-to-shoulder with Lavinia and putting his arms up, using only his left one to punch while constantly guarding with his right. His torso was protected by armor, though so was the other man's.
-
Their opponent was built like a barrel, and size mattered more in fights than she'd care to admit. Lavinia was tall, but that was all she had going for her here. There wasn't any use punching against his armored parts either unless she wanted to split her knuckles open.
But it was still two-on-one. She and Claude caught elbows and fists and bounty hunter spit, but they eventually managed to pummel the man until he was only twitching against the bar, upon which the bartender emerged with a crossbow and several other annoyed patrons and shooed them out.
-
Maria had been taking care of her mare; even though she was able to clean herself up from the battle, it was somewhat challenging to do more than the bare minimum for her horse while on the open sea. Thankfully, the rest of the trip was rather uneventful, and her horse was slightly more comfortable with being docked. That battle though...
That thunder seemed more powerful than usual. Was it just that the mage who nearly got her was more experienced? Well, probably in part; but it wasn't just that. Couldn't be. It felt more powerful, more shocking? Agh, it was hard to tell. Either way, the rider was a little down after all that blood loss; medicine and magical healing only did so much for feeling sick, and while she wasn't the type to get seasick, it wasn't like working on deck helped. Thankfully, it had mostly passed at this point. She had barely heard the mage when he approached and ended up craning her head a little to see.
(http://i.imgur.com/qLn1H6S.jpg) "Hmm? Oh, hey Alain. Yeah; I'm a little surprised that this place is what it is, I'd have thought that magical artefacts would be in much busier towns."
(http://i.imgur.com/CtATPoj.jpg) "Anyways, there is one thing. Are there tomes that make the spirits have more will to do what you ask 'em or something? There was that one mage a couple days back, and his magic seemed more... Powerful? Direct? Y'know, more "Bam!" even if he had less magical... spirit calling power.
-
Claude had managed to swig almost the whole mug before the owner appeared with the crossbow, and swigged the last bit while the man was already taking aim. There was no way he was wasting coin like that. Then he escaped with Lavinia.
(https://i.imgur.com/rZ6iW4V.png) "It'd been a while since last time. Let's search for the others, what do you say? We might find some of them wandering around too. In case no one had the same idea as we did, we get back to the ship."
-
Lavinia's mead sadly went to waste.
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "Sure. I've had my fun."
Wander, possibly completely coincidentally towards a particular temple.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/HhbFMHc.png)"Ah, curious about tomes and other paraphernalia? They're focusing mediums, essentially. A mage calls to the spirits, and they manifest in the form of raw powers that the caller can manipulate; there is an issue of efficiency however. Most mages can manage simple cantrips and parlor tricks without much effort or exertion..."
He held out a hand- quite far from Maria -and let a small flame bloom into life, dancing on the sea winds. As Maria watched, it morphed and grew until a fully formed bird of fire sat perched on his finger, pecking at it like the real thing woud.
(https://i.imgur.com/HhbFMHc.png)"Like so... but trying to manifest something usable for actual combat, or any serious work besides it such as research or healing, takes a far greater amount of energy- enough that it could probably exhaust even the most talented after just a few consecutive instances. Hence, the purpose of Tomes and Staves: they allow us to channel larger amounts of power into the world while expending less effort." He adjusted the folds of his cloak, allowing Maria to spot the basic Fire Tome he carried on his belt, right next to it's more advanced version.
"Inside of a tome, you will find various sigils, runes, and other inscriptions all meant to amplify arcane energy as it is manifested into the corporeal world. They may also have certain...side effects on the end result, but that depends entirely on the nature of the tome in question. Additionally, The process of the amplification takes a toll on them, since the energy slowly eats away at the materials with every use. That's the short version of it at least, according to the note's of that old wizard we killed in the desert, there's apparently an entire branch of Magic Theory devoted solely to the creation and maintenance of focuses."
With that bit explained, he allowed the little fire bird in his palm to take flight. It swooped up and over the deck, before circling just a few meters above their heads
(https://i.imgur.com/HhbFMHc.png)"As for your specific question though, what makes a tome stronger or weaker is it's quality as a focus, more than anything else. higher quality materials for the binding, cleaner penmanship for the pages, and more complex inscriptions for the contents will all naturally lead to better results. And I believe I also spotted the mage you're talking about- one of the lackey's following that Carmen woman? He seemed to be using a mid-grade tome, both times we've ran into their lot ... so that probably explains why his spells may have been stronger. That, and her entire cabal obviously have some decent experience, more than most of us can probably boast of... not that it was enough to save them, in the end."
-
Maria instinctively flinched when the small plume of flame bloomed to life, though her horse was far enough from it that she didn't seem too bothered by it. Maria herself was able to calm herself down, though she unfocused from the conversation for a moment in doing so. She watched as the now-bird pecked away, intrigued by how it wasn't hurting for Alain to hold or how he didn't at least shake a little with literal fire on his fingertip. Except, it wasn't actual fire, it was spirit-fire or something... Geez, how did he know all this stuff? Maybe she could take to just looking at a book on it; probably not a tome... Not like she had any power in that sense; otherwise she would've been trained in it.
She glanced at the bird above as he explained more, and Ophia seemed to know that the bird wasn't natural. It all seemed so complicated, yet Alain seemed to have basically devoted his life to this stuff. Hearing all of this though, no wonder why tomes were so expensive; she knew there was something about them that helped magic, but this made it make much more sense.
(http://i.imgur.com/4SEb2Xs.jpg) "Oh, ok that makes sense. Too bad the tome wasn't in a good 'nough shape for you to use... You're already really good on the battlefield, imagine with a more powerful tome!"
(http://i.imgur.com/KECcMdO.jpg) "I'm amazed that we were actually able to get through those; granted, I ended up on the ground a lot... Even if I'm getting more used to this thanks to you - thanks again, by the way! - Ophia is still pretty nervous with this stuff, so it's hard to not have her and I end up on the ground..."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"I'll go try and get everyone. You, uh, stay here and make sure nothing happens? Anyway, I'll be back."
On Ashlyn's way back to the ship she ran into not only Gawen and Angelica but also Lavinia and Claude.
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"Hey you guys, I think Amberly might've found the location of one of the treasures in the church. I'm going to go get Ethan and the rest of the crew since it mentioned a 'trial of strength' or something like that. You should probably head on over just in case something stupid happens."
With her brief explanation of the situation and even briefer instructions given, Ashlyn resumed heading back to the ship. On the deck she found Alian and Maria chatting but she decided to let them be until Ethan was ready to go. She knocked on the captain's door.
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"Oi captain! I think we found one of the three treasures!"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "And that's work calling. Possibly fun too, depending on what this 'trial of strength' is all about."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/HhbFMHc.png)"Ah, she spooks easily does she? Well, don't worry about it- everyone starts somewhere in this business."
(https://i.imgur.com/rxMXoby.png)"Wish I could give you some advice how to keep her calm, but the only horse I've ever dealt with was a spiteful, ornerary thing- don't think he was even capable of fear, just anger. Practically had to fight him just to get the plow hooked up, and that was on a good day. Always seemed to hate my sisters less than... well, everyone else for some reason though, never figured out why."
(https://i.imgur.com/HhbFMHc.png)"Not that it matters much these days, anyway. Just out of curiosity, how long have you two been doing mercenary work?"
-
"Mmmmm??" The captain stretched in his hammock and looked at Ashlyn.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "What were you saying?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/CtATPoj.jpg) "That bad, huh? They tend to be choosy, so it makes sense he tolerated only them...We had one like that back at the ranch, my mother was the only one able to get him calmed down; though once we had someone insist on riding him... I think we had to give a refund to that poor man."
(http://i.imgur.com/KECcMdO.jpg) "I think it's just all the battles getting to her recently; she was never as bad in my old jobs, though she didn't have thunder flying at her as often."
Maria gave her horse a couple of pats while she was talking; her horse got pretty skittish these days. She was never the calmest horse, but Maria had been able to keep her under control pretty well before. I mean, if she was able to fight, that was already a lot of control, but still.
(http://i.imgur.com/4SEb2Xs.jpg) "Anyway, it's been what now... A couple years, technically? I only made it all the way out here in the past year; I was still at the ranch before that, just takin' jobs as a casual thing."
(http://i.imgur.com/qLn1H6S.jpg) "And what about you? With your knowledge despite bein' self taught, you have to have done this for a while."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/HhbFMHc.png)"Well... I think it was around 3 years ago or so, when I left home. Came from a little farming village in Zeekonrik. Wasn't much of interest back home, just fields and mountains, though it was right off of one of the main paths inland so it got a bit of traffic every now and again from travellers stopping for supplies or lodging.
(https://i.imgur.com/rxMXoby.png)"Lucky thing it did too, I'd have never gotten access to any tomes if it wasn't for the general store...old man Carrington would let me take a few of the worn ones in exchange for a few oddjobs..."
(https://i.imgur.com/m24zZD6.png)"Anyway, our farm wasn't even worth the land it was build on- soil was so desolate it was a miracle we could grow what little we managed. Been that way for ever since it came into our family, and for 3 whole generations. 3 generations of barely bringing in enough from the fields to feed ourselves, let alone sell for profit. 3 generations of growing up with nothing but dust and dirt, of being nothing but dust and dirt. Yet somehow, we managed to survive till now... I still don't know how, maybe the men of my family are that damn stubborn. Gods know they were certainly too damn stupid to give up on a lost cost." He crossed his arms, leaning against the railing and looking to the skies.
"I...hated that damn farm. I hated that life. Hated how my sisters and I grew up with practically nothing, hated how the other kids looked at us with either pity or those arrogant little sneers. Hated how my father, and his father, and his father had all stayed on that gods forsaken land out of pride. I was the eldest child, the only son... and once my father had worked himself into bedrest like the fool he was, I'd effectively become the man of the house. I was responsible for feeding everyone... and I was expected to do that by repeating the same madness as my forefathers..."
(https://i.imgur.com/HhbFMHc.png) "To hell with that. I had trained every night for a good 7 years up till then... taught myself magic even if we were poor as dirt. Scoured old man Carrington's inventory and worked to get every last book on the stuff he'd part with. I had the power to end that madness, and I intended to do just that. Left home not long after Father fell ill. Made my way to the nearest settlement of note, and kept going till I hit the coast, taking jobs and sending the gold home. And I won't stop until I've earned enough to move them all to somewhere better, and burn that pathetic shack and all it's fields to the ground."
-
Maria didn't quite know what to think about the mage's situation: he was obviously passionate about making sure his family had a better life than those before him; less passionate, more angry at life, but she couldn't blame him. Yet, she also thought she understood what his family thought about it; making something from nothing... That's what so many strive for. She leaned on the railing with one elbow, her horse nudging her other arm occasionally. She felt bad for him, but he just said that he didn't want the pity of others. It took her several moments to come up with a response.
(https://i.imgur.com/KECcMdO.png) "Well... Well... I'm sorry, but, I mean..."
(https://i.imgur.com/CtATPoj.png)"That's a noble cause, in a way. And you've gotten far; I don't wanna pester you about your family, but I'm sure after 3 years, you've made progress on that goal, right? Sure, this life doesn't pay that well; my own parents aren't getting any younger, so I try to send them a little to pay the ranch hands. So... I don't know how much longer we'll both be stuck being mercenaries, but I wanna help you out. You've been helping me out a lot, I oughta repay the favour somehow."
Maria toyed with her coin purse, before stroking her horse a little. This was a lot to process... He had sacrificed so much for this. To get his family a new life. She may not believe in her mother's diety, but her mother did teach her pride in work.
(https://i.imgur.com/CtATPoj.png) And even if you don't want me to send your fam'ly money, I could try to cover the cost of your tomes a little so you could send that money; lances ain't as expensive... I think."
(https://i.imgur.com/qLn1H6S.png)"You've worked hard enough for this; I don't mean to take all the weight off - I don't think I could do it - but you're a good friend to me now, so... I gotta make it up."
(https://i.imgur.com/mlU68h8.png)"And at the same time... Your sisters are probably missing you. I know my parents are, and probably some of the longer-working hands. And you're the one takin' care of them, so not seeing them in so long is probably really worrying them."
Maria sighed; this must be hard for him. She didn't know why he trusted her enough to share this, but she figured she had a duty now, to be a good person. You can't just her this and stand aside... right?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"I said I think we found one of the treasures, captain. Amberly found some altar in an old church and it mentioned a 'trial of strength'. So I came back to get you and the rest of the crew since about half of them are already there."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Already? Huh. Let's go then, and hope the rest is as easy as this one." Ethan left his hammock, stretched again and then paced after Ashlyn.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/m24zZD6.png)"Maria, I..."
(https://i.imgur.com/rxMXoby.png) "Thank you... but please, you don't have to. It's my responsibility, not yours. It wouldn't be right for me to take the coin you rightfully earned for yourself."
(https://i.imgur.com/HhbFMHc.png)"It's true though, it's been too long since I saw any of them. Letters are enough to keep in touch, check on how they're doing, but... not the same. But they understand why I'm out here. Things were a bit rough at the start, there were a lot of debts to be paid... but I was right to do what I did. In three years doing this, I've earned several times more than we ever could at that barren farm, and done what Father spent his whole life up to the day he died failing at; Our family owes practically no one anymore, and for once in our lives everyone has enough to eat. Having to be away from them all is a price I'm willing to pay for the stability we have now. I will see my sisters again soon enough once I am done, and who knows, if all this talk of saving the world is legitimate, that may well happen even sooner."
He straightened up at the sight of Boss and one of the Crew members walking out of the cabin. Dismissing the bird construct overhead with a snap of fingers he turned back to Maria.
(https://i.imgur.com/HhbFMHc.png)"But I do thank you for even offering," he continued "It's a gesture not many in this world would make. What you said earlier though about repaying- don't worry about it. All I'm doing is paying a favor forward, giving advice a fledgling mercenary, as someone did for me in the beginning. If you truly wish to repay that, all I ask is that you do the same someday. Looks like free time is about to come a close though..."
-
Gawen poked her head into the temple.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Amberly. You've found something? Ashlyn mentioned something about a trial of strength being involved."
-
Amberly had just begun considering whether she should explore the stairs by herself. Luckily, Gawen showing up brought her out of that dangerous line of thought.
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "Yes, indeed. I pressed a hidden button on this altar, then it seemed to react to the presence of the orb and revealed this hidden staircase. I haven't gone down yet, in case this "trial to strength" involves something like...well, heavy lifting or something. I'm afraid my muscles would be inadequate for such tasks."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Perhaps it would be good to wait for the rest of the crew? I'd be eager to explore such a thing, but a trial of strength may refer to combat; it wouldn't be typical to refer to such in a modern day, but who knows how old this is?. . . I don't suppose you could hazard a guess?"
-
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "An exact age is impossible to determine, of course, but unless my education has failed me it dates from before the Reckoning. Waiting for the rest of the crew sounds like a good idea indeed!"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"What do you think of them, anyway? I fear I've made the worst kind of impression with them, what with the whispering, and it's been difficult to judge them from my perspective.
I suppose it'd be worth asking the same thing about myself."
-
The nun paused, thrown off-balance by the sudden change in topic.
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "What do I think about the crew? Well...I don't really know. They certainly are a boisterous bunch, Lysander excepted. I haven't taken the time to speak to many of them, but they seem to treat me well enough. And at the very least they are taking this whole artifact-hunting business seriously.
"As for you...well, you seem nice enough. I'm afraid I've spent even less time with you and your companion than the crew of the Blackbones, though, and I haven't been able to form much of an opinion..." Amberly felt horribly uncomfortable. She hadn't realized just how little socializing she'd done since this whole mess started.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"I see. Well, we should be spending a fair amount of time together going forward, assuming you stay for the entirety of this expedition; I hope to make a better impression going forward."
-
Vortai was still reading when he heard some people speaking nearby. When he glanced upwards he saw Ethan and Ashlyn, the shaman stood up with the book still on his hands and made his way towards them.
(https://i.imgur.com/TQe9EKm.png) "Are we already moving?"
-
Claude arrived as Amberly chatted with Gawen.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Hello to both of you. Do we know what the 'trial' is about?"
-
Lavinia followed Claude in. She raised a hand in greeting.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Ashlyn did say 'trial of strength' - but this doesn't feel like the sort of place to take that literally."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"It could be some sort of fight. A trial of strength could refer to one by combat, as I was just mentioning to Amberly. I've heard stories of magic that could summon creatures or animate statues; given that this is where an artifact of great magical power may lay, it could very well test us by having us fight magical guardians." More than a hint of eagerness showed through the noble's refined tones and in her eyes; this was the sort of thing one only read about in stories or heard recited by old bards, and exactly the sort of thing she'd dreamed of encountering. She leaned in closer toward the inscription. "Actually, I think this phrasing could specifically mean 'trial by combat' instead of a general one of strength."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "We just had some warmup to get our blood pumping. A battle for a relic sounds like a good followup."
-
(https://s19.postimg.org/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "We don't know for sure that there will be any fighting," Amberly cautioned. "I admit that the possibility exists of course, which is why I asked Ashlyn to gather everyone here, but it could just as easily be a test of lifting power, or moral fiber, or something along those lines. The writing is just too non-specific to be sure."
-
Lavinia moved over to squat by the stairs, peering downwards.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "This place doesn't feel like a battleground, anyway. I guess we'll just have to wait to see how different it is down there."
This was no tavern. She felt a bit more restrained than usual. Not in a bad way. Something about temples just made her want to keep her voice down.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rZ6iW4V.png) "Relics aside, I wonder if we will find extra loot..."
-
Maria chuckled to herself a little; even if the mage didn't like his forefather's pride, he sure did inherit it. She did notice the bird disappearing, and Ophia seemed a little surprised by it; kinda hard to explain to a horse that it won't reappear behind ya and burn your tail off. Still though, that last bit did remind her that apparently they were saving the world now... It's not like she forgot; far from it. But... she thought it was the kind of thing that just doesn't seem real. It still didn't in a way, but... Hmm, would spirits focused in that crystal ball always lie? Who knows; well, whoever first made it, but she was no historian.
(https://i.imgur.com/4SEb2Xs.png) "Well, I can't just hear your tale and not think about helping, now can I? Either way, I'll be sure to pay it forward someday. Granted, this whole saving the world business usually takes a while, and I ain't good enough to teach much. Riding, mayyybe lances..."
(https://i.imgur.com/qLn1H6S.png)"And I know ya said not to worry about it, but I'll try, really. Hell, you trust me enough to talk about it, it's the least I can do." Her horse kept nudging her as she finished up the conversation. "Give me a minute, Oph. You'll get off this boat in a second"
(https://i.imgur.com/XxO9Lou.png)"Either way, you're probably right. Most of the crew's probably waiting somewhere for us, so we can look for the... Whatever kind of great treasure it is... I don't think that woman said... Let's get going, anyway."
With that, Maria quickly got her horse ready, in case they ran into more people out for Ethan's blood, and wallet. She did let Alain and any others disembarking out before her, if only because of her horse. Wherever they were needed, she hoped that this was the real start of this quest. It was exciting no doubt, but... These artifacts were probably super strong focuses or something... The power one could have with only one was kinda scary. This group seemed to have pretty good people in terms of mages; she hadn't talked to that Vortai guy yet, but he seemed harmless... Relative to magic users, anyways.
-
The group walked down the stairs to a hidden level underneath the temple, much bigger than the upper floor. Although the walls were plain, they were conservated despite being present for hundreds of years, same for the four doors that were now present (and closed) before them.
No other ancient language indication was given, but they found some armors that seemed to react to the group's presence by assuming a battle stance. And on the other side they could see some spiders had taken residence within the hidden vault's comfy walls, that they didn't like their home being disturbed, and some remains from adventurers of old that had failed to go too far. The remains raised up and formed armed skeletons that were also ready to attack the intruders.

(https://i.imgur.com/rZ6iW4V.png) "Not a fluke!" Claude triumphantly proclaimed after he swapped swords, swung the heavy blade onto the spider and half cut, half crushed its exoskeleton. He was panting and wounded but satisfied with the results of his little display of skill.
He'd even dodged a whole two swipes.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "And the spider had stuffing. Probably from some unfortunate treasure hunter." he commented as he picked up the set of lockpicks half-covered in ichor.

It was a pretty nice dodge, though she was probably still more impressed by a good hit on an enemy.

Suddenly! Strong rumbles could be heard (and felt) throughout the vault. Walls started moving, the floor started shifting, and the group got slowly pushed together... (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXFSK0ogeg4) And then it stopped.
Now the rooms were noticeably smaller.

While Maria had been clutching her once-infected wound before, she shot up straight the second that armoured... Thing shot fire, and she had a bit of trouble keeping Ophia where she was. Ethan had been taken down, and...
"Ga- You alright, Claude?"
...Wait, weren't these magical armours? Were the spirits using more spirits? Could the fire shoot even more fire, then? She figured that that was too many possibilities to worry about during battle, and steeled herself.

(https://i.imgur.com/HhbFMHc.png): "Impressive. Most impressive. A feat of Arcane engineering to be sure..." The mage could not help himself but to marvel a bit when the smaller suit with a gout of flames for an arm was revealed behind the door. The wonder soon wore off however, when the thing leveled said arm at his employer and roasted the man into submission. Beautiful feat of engineering or no, they were still just as deadly as one would expect.
(https://i.imgur.com/rxMXoby.png): "Again, such a shame I've got to scrap you."
One of the knights in the other room crumbled not long after, and behind it was revealed yet another flamer. He could practically see it sizing up targets already. Without hesitation, he strode forward, putting himself directly in the thing's path and unleashing a volley of his own flames at the same time...

~~~~Chapter 4 Complete~~~~
XP: 18/100
Behind it, a door to the final room opens. The walls started rumbling yet again to indicate that the group shouldn't dawdle around.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Let's... Get moving." Claude called, using both hands to sheathe his sword and bleeding just a tiny bit all over his armor and clothes.
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"This excursion went rather well I think," Angelica says as the last golem falls. Her celebration is interrupted by the rumbling, and she focuses once again. "I suppose we should go check out that vault before we get stuck in here. Shall we?"
-
Amberly comes dashing into the final room from her sniping position.
(https://s19.postimg.cc/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "This place feels as though it will fall apart! Let us hurry."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "That thing wasn't very good at aiming, was it?"
Probably a combat lesson there. Musing aside, Lavinia headed towards the door with the others.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"A shame. I'd've liked to test my own strength against the thing. Still, good fighting everyone." Gawen strode forward toward the door, armored boots clanking against the old stone of the floor. She couldn't help but smile to herself; circumstances of the group and their thoughts of her aside, this was straight out of the stories of her youth.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Hey Lavinia, I won." Claude triumphantly remarked as he quickly walked to the door.
-
The corner of Lavinia's mouth curled in amusement. Even when they were all hurrying to avoid being mashed by a man vs. wall scenario, there was still apparently time for Claude to brag.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Yeah... good fight. I'll get you next round."
(https://i.imgur.com/iqXiz4P.png) "Come on, let's make sure everyone gets out." And maybe then Lysander could help stop Claude from undercutting his victory by bleeding all over the place.
-
Maria attempted to calm down her horse, and at least partly herself. She almost never seen her so skittish, but it wasn't like neither Maria nor her horse could do much about it.
(https://i.imgur.com/osH6H8I.png) "Whew! I expected that thing to be tougher... Anyways, On we go."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rZ6iW4V.png) "I'd be disappointed if you stopped trying." Claude shot back
The crew's accountant and quartermaster was feeling pretty good at himself, at how much better he'd gotten after something clicked inside of him and he started dodging and parrying more—or doing them at all—and kissing the floor less. Though he wasn't about to say it out loud, that little competition between he and Lavinia had certainly jogged his competitive spirit.
-
Lysander frowned slightly, inspecting the remains of their enemies for a brief second before sighing and heading off after everyone else. The things were a mystery but there was no time to be looking at them in depth now.
-
Ethan did not protest, and let himself be carried on the horse to the vault.
-
The group made it safely inside the secure vault as the walls closed in behind them.
The vault was a pristine room, decorated with beautiful yet meaningless engravings, a true display of pre-Reckoning opulency that the Alvada of old enjoyed. There was also a back door that let some light shine through, indicating the way out. The only thing of note inside the room itself was a single pedestal, atop of which rested a gloriously ornate bracelet.
There was no doubt it was one of the Royal Treasures.
-
Amberly approached the pedestal to examine the bracelet more closely, being careful not to touch anything just yet. After all, it wouldn't do to have the walls close in like they had done earlier.
-
Nothing in the pedestal indicated that it could be a trap. It's only purpose is to not have the Royal item left on the floor.
-
Veeeeeeery caaaaaarefully, Amberly picks up the bracelet.
-
The only thing that happens is that Amberly is now holding valuable ancient treasure.
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"Well I'm glad to see that there weren't any other traps to deal with," Angelica says with a sigh of relief at Amberly acquiring the treasure with no real hassle.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"A part of me was expecting another test. Perhaps of knowledge, or some other quality. Though if you believe the old stories, if it's not now then that sort of thing should come with the retrieval of another treasure." Gawen peered at the bracelet curiously as she spoke. "What are your thoughts on it, Amberly?"
-
Ethan left the horse alone and approached Amberly.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "You alright? No sudden inner explosions of magical cursed type?"
-
Amberly shook her head.
(https://s19.postimg.cc/f99btb0cj/amberly_veilhappy.png): "No, nothing like that at all. It's a beautiful piece of pre-Reckoning history. If we had more time, I'd love to be able to study the rest of the room as well."
-
The captain let out a sigh of relief.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Splendid." Ethan turned to the rest of the group.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Claude will keep the bracelet safe. Unless you have anything against it?" He questioned his quartermaster guy.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"I'm sure you'll have time on our journey to study it. Assuming the good Captain and his men permit, of course."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "I have nothing against it." Claude replied before walking towards Amberly to receive the bracelet. "It's truly beautiful."
-
Amberly reluctantly handed the bracelet over. She reasoned that she'd be able to examine it more closely on the ship.
-
Claude noticed Amberly's reluctance as she handed the relic over and smiled at her as he put it away in his pack.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Don't worry, it's not going anywhere."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/XcjiAZV.png) "It is a pity that we won't be able to properly study those golems. I was hoping to find out what makes them work, especially if they were slumbering until now."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Perhaps, when this errand is done, an expedition can be sent back to this place. It may have sealed itself, but if it could be unsealed once, it surely can be done again."
-
The party exited through the back door, going out of a hidden door in a rock wall not too far from the town. But when they got back, there was a mob of villagers waiting for them.
That's them! One of the mob, the bartender, pointed at the group. They found something in the ol' temple! The villagers started rising their voice, until the problem they had with Ethan and the crew became obvious. The treasure belongs to the town! The now angry mob threatened to block the way out. But who could be brave enough to calm the townsfolk?
-
Ethan hefted his axe and pointed it blade-wise toward the bartender.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Allrighty, listen here you cucks. We have just beaten a throng of ancient guardians with no sweat, and they were packing armor, flame-breathing things and all kinds of murderous weapons. You're buncha guys with pitchforks and sticks."
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "So we're leaving with this trinket, and the only difference between two possible outcomes is, whether this village retains its population or becomes comprised mostly of widows and orphans. Your choice!"
-
Lysander audibly groaned at Ethan's response, and stepped forward placing a hand on his arm.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Captain, please. Excuse his attitude, he's recently had his life endangered by the aforementioned golems. I know that you believe this treasure belongs to you, but please tell me, what would you do with this tying that before today you didn't know existed? It belongs to others. Not us, not you. We have simply been tasked with retrieving it for this country. Would you really hold that against us?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Lysander I will throw you overboard the next time you do this."
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "My justification or his, we're leaving with it anyways!"
-
Lysander glared back up at the captain.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"My job is to protect and heal people. These are innocents who deserve better than you threatening to kill them because they annoyed you. If that gets me tossed overboard, I'll do it every time."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Your job is to protect and heal me and my crew. I hope that's clear."
-
Gawen did her best to place herself between the mob and the rest of the crew before speaking.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Please, good townsfolk, we have only the best of intentions. We've no desire to harm anyone here in any way." She wanted to tell them a bit more about why they were there and needed to keep the artifact they had found, but figured that it would do more harm than good.
-
He shook his head, though if someone was paying attention, they would see his hands starting to shake.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Before I even knew you existed, I was dedicated to healing those who need it. I am a part of your crew because you saved me from bullies who preyed on the innocents. I will not hesitate to leave if you become like them."
Turning on his heels, he stalked away from the group and the mob, letting Gawan run the interference that he had been trying to do before. His hands were shaking hard enough at this point that he could barely hold his staff anymore.
-
Ethan glared at Lysander, but decided to cut it. He placed his hands on the butt of the axe, waiting to see how their kind of diplomacy will work.
-
The mob of villagers was rather surprising to see, but she was perhaps more surprised, or appalled, by Ethan's...ultimatum. She had half wanted to scream at the man for doing something that probably would have caused more harm than good, but fortunately Lysander, and later Gawen, attempted to manage the situation to some degree. That being said, she noticed Lysander and Ethan continuing some conversation before Lysander walked off, shaking. Shaking her head, she decided to say something to Ethan first and foremost.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281665247576074/Basedtroub-ec3.png)
"While I can understand wanting to get past the villagers, I cannot condone just threatening to cull them. I can't see how that goes well for anyone involved. And with that," she stops before getting on her horse and heading off to find Lysander. "I have something else I now must take care of," she says in an unusually stern voice before setting off to find Lysander.
-
The mob got louder after Ethan's "speech", with some voices asking to get it over violently, but Lysander and later Gawen managed to hold it for them to hear some more.
What do you need the treasure for? We need the money to feed our families and get materials!
Yeah, nobody ever comes here and fishin' only gives us enough to scrap by!
-
Ethan let out an exasperated sigh and moved to the front.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Then I will give you a thousand gold for the bauble. Deal?"
-
Gawen looked at Ethan with a mixture of curiosity and startlement. She hadn't expected the man to step forth with such an offer, not after his earlier posturing.
-
Lysander collapsed under a tree, hugging his knees tight to his chest. Flashes of suppressed memories were surfacing, throwing him into a panic.
His grandmother's face, gently smiling as he healed someone for the first time. The wind in his hair as his family's ship set sail with him onboard for the first time. Flames, waking him up. Blood everywhere. Women crying. Then darkness as he was tossed into a brig. Being dragged up to heal bloody pirates while a burning ship sunk in the background. Threats of being tossed overboard and fed to sharks if he didn't.
His breath was jagged as he dug his nails into his legs. Calm. He was safe. This wasn't going to end like that. He wouldn't let it. But it didn't matter. The panic kept rising as memories continued to haunt him.
-
Having left the crew's immediate vicinity, Angelica started looking in the general direction Lysander went for him. It took some time, but she did eventually find him curled up besides a tree.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281656330223617/Basedtroub-3.png)
"Oh dear, this is..." she trailed off, surprised to see Lysander in such a state. She didn't know what exactly Ethan had said to him, but she doubted it was anything good. Weighing her options for how exactly to approach at this moment, she decided to dismount her horse and kneel down towards him at about eye level.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281660117811200/Basedtroub-ec.png)
"Lysander?" she called out to him in a soft, gentle voice, hoping to grab his attention without startling him too much.
-
After Ethan's offer, the mob stopped and realized it didn't know how much the treasure was worth. They whispered amongst themselves when another villager walked into the mess.
What's happenin'g over here? Amberly could recognize him as the man who opened up the temple for her.
Mayor! They found somethin' in the temple, and there was a bar fight and... something about ancient guardians? They're offerin' a thousand gold for what they found.
Well, I wasn't expectin' this to happen when I opened a door for a humble nun. What did they find?
We... don't know.
All this ruckus and you don't even know what yer gathered here for? Bloody 'ell, even if they did, we need more people to come 'ere and yer scarin' 'em away!
Realizing the ridiculousness of the situation the mob started to disperse while the mayor turned to the group.
Tell ya what, keep whatever it is that you found and yer money. But I don't suppose one of you could stay here? We've been a bit short on manpower for forever. And if ye could spread the rumor that there's still somethin' to be found in this place, so that we at least get some merchants n' stuff goin', we'd appreciate it.
-
With the threat of an angry mob dispersing for the moment, Amberly's mood shifted from fright back into pure scholarly joy.
(https://s19.postimg.cc/f99btb0cj/amberly_veilhappy.png): "Oh, hello again sir! Thank you once again for opening the temple for me; as Mantorok as my witness I did not expect to find anything as magnificent as what we uncovered!"
-
Lysander froze as someone called out to him. No, no one could see him like this. It's why he left. Why did someone have to follow? This wasn't good. Who could trust a healer that might fall apart at any second? Without looking up, he managed to push out,
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Just... Go away. Please."
-

"And leave you here like this? I think not," Angelica says in a slightly stern, but still gentle voice. After making sure her horse is settled, she continues to sit by Lysander.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"I won't force you to say anything if you don't want to. Just know that I'm here to lend an ear or shoulder if you need one. Alright?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"I'm afraid that myself and my retainer, at least, cannot afford to stay here. I'll be sure to allude to something in my next letter home, however, as well as mention it in passing to any merchants we might encounter in our travels."
-
Claude frowned at Ethan's threats, and he was a bit too shocked and rusty when it came to diplomacy to stand up to his employer and smooth things out.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Captain, could you leave negotiations to me next time? We already have enough enemies as is."
-
Lavinia frowned too.
She didn't really aspire to diplomacy. She was mostly just here to fight and carry out the captain's orders. But she was starting to think maybe they needed to figure out a plan for these things instead of Ethan intimidating people and then getting undercut all the time. One or the other, just not this.
As the situation cooled, she began idly popping the knuckles on her right hand in silence.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Great, also fine." Ethan replied to both the mayor and Claude in short order.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Then we're leaving. To the Blackbones, crew." The captian didn't loiter around much longer, and headed for his ship.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"I'll be *fine* just leave me be, ok? I will catch up to everyone soon I just need... Need to work through memories."
The panic edging his voice was most likely obvious along with anger and fear but he still refused to look at his companion.
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281661879287808/Basedtroub-ec1.png)
"Take whatever time you need," she responds, still refusing to leave, but not pressing the issue further. She could respect Lysander wanting to try and handle things on his own, but that didn't mean she would just leave him out here. So until he had calmed down, she would wait.

~~Chapter 5: Sequestered Treasure~~
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/xfwrqk1i8c8fkg8/ch5.png?raw=1)
After a week of travel, the Blackbones entered the Demon's Grin archipelago. The name wasn't particularly original, but all of those places named after the evil creature had one thing in common: people didn't live there. Either too harsh weather or deadly wildlife made it impossible for civilization to establish any sort of settlement.
At least for the current age. Who knows if something remains from ancient times?
It had been a quiet week aboard of the Blackbones. The outer oceans weren't frequented by many ships, especially within the archipelago. But now, they were approaching the island marked by the orb, and who knew what awaited them there?
-
Day after day, Claude swung his blade at the air as it had become his routine, working up a sweat inside the brig. Chop. Chop. Chop. His talents lied elsewhere, so he had to keep training with his swords, fearing he'd get rusty with them and lose his competitive edge. Now and then he wondered how his brother was, intermittent as his communication with him was thanks to his new sea-faring lifestyle.
Chop. Chop. Chop. As the quartermaster shifted his footing and swung his sword, he tried to clear his mind. He was satisfied with his growth. Maybe a bit too satisfied. He had to take care not to get complacent. As soon as he was done training, he rubbed himself clean with a towel, re-checked the ship's stores and then ascended to the deck. He was hoping he'd find Lavinia around so they could do some limited sparring, or maybe go for some arm-wrestling.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Good thing I prepared the stores for a long trip." he mumbled as he emerged from the stairs and stared at the approaching island. Preparing the Blackbones for a voyage little to no restocking was his purvey, of course.
-
Amberly stood up from her desk (a short stool combined with a conveniently-sized crate) and stretched. The amulet taken from the tomb was certainly fascinating, but there was really only so much she could learn from it on a moving ship with no laboratory or reference books. Besides, while she was more knowledgeable about ancient artifacts and the Old Writing than the average layperson she wasn't exactly an expert. It was time to take a break before they made landfall.
Walking back and forth along the deck, the nun soon spotted Lysander. The healer had been seeming a bit down for the past week. Seeing as how the ship would soon be landing in "Demon's Grin", Amberly resolved to try and get the young man to feel better.
(https://s19.postimg.cc/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "Hello Lysander. May I join you?"
-
Staring out at the ocean, Lysander gripped the railing tightly. His dreams had been haunting this last week, resulting in a distinct lack of sleep. He was doing his best to keep it from affecting him, but he still jumped when Amberly approached him from behind.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Wha? Oh, uh, sure. No reason you can't. Finally done looking at the thing we found?"
-
(https://s19.postimg.cc/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "For now. It's hard to use a magnifying glass accurately when you're constantly moving." The nun paused, attempting to gather her nerve. "Mostly, though, I thought that perhaps you might want to talk. You've been very quiet all week."
-
Lysander's smile faded and he gave a small shrug.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"It's nothing. Just had an argument with the captain so I'm trying to keep out of his way. That's all."
-
Even Amberly could tell that wasn't the whole story.
(https://s19.postimg.cc/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "I'm sure that cannot be easy on a ship of this size. Still, are you certain that is all that has been bothering you? I do not wish to pry, of course..."
-
The faded smile was now squarely a frown, and Lysander was becoming more uncomfortable.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Nothing else important. I just said some things I shouldn't have and it made me think about some similar issues in the past. Anyways, excited about this new location? Maybe you'll be able to spend some more time inspecting this place since the last one kind of closed in on us."
-
The nun sighed inwardly. So much for that.
(https://s19.postimg.cc/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "Well, I know nothing about the Demon's Grin other than the name, which I can't say I approve of. I suppose we will just have to see what awaits us. Hopefully we will not have to incur the anger of another village."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"I'm fairly certain no one lives out here anymore. If they do, it's impressive. From... from what I understand even pirates... don't usually come out this way."
-
(https://s19.postimg.cc/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "So you have some knowledge of this place? What can you tell me about it?"
-
Gawen had been wandering restlessly about the ship. The first few days of sea travel had been interesting, but there was only so much looking at the ocean one could do before it became normal and, well, boring. There was a reason she'd always paid more attention to her martial lessons than her etiquette and history, too; sitting about grated at the woman. Additionally, there was still a bit of tension. . . well, more than a bit, with the rest of the crew. Still, perhaps one of the newer crew members could offer some conversation; she spotted one of them who didn't seem to be doing anything particularly important.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Hello. . . Marlow, was it? How goes it?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Nothing too expansive. Just... I used to be a merchant. Well, worked on a merchant ship. And no one ever considered coming out here. Not because of pirates, they tend to stay closer to the mainland. More ships there. Just because there's nothing useful or important out here. Plus there are all sorts of nasty rumors about monsters, but you get those any time you start talking about places with names like 'Demon's Grin'"

(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Hello. . . Marlow, was it? How goes it?"
(https://i.imgur.com/8jC0CPm.png)"Not much. You're the noble lady right?" He glanced around. "I noticed the others took... issues, with the way you introduced yourself. How you holding up?"
-
Gawen winced ever so slightly.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Yes, you could say that. Gawen of house Cawallader, if you didn't recall. I'm well, I suppose, if rather lacking in distractions on this vessel. I've little knowledge of sailing and doubt the crew wants my help besides.
-
Lavinia was on the foredeck, looking out towards where they were going with her hands on the railing. Her hair moved in the wind, more generated by the Blackbones' movement as she cut through the water than anything else. The ocean had been calm; other than keeping the ship sailing and operational there weren't many orders to relay.
Ashlyn was the usual lookout, but they had more hands than they usually did (it almost felt crowded even though she supposed she should have been used to it at this point) and Lavinia couldn't remember at the moment who had spotted the island they were looking for. But the island was there. She wondered if her father had ever adventured here, and thought probably not. A mercenary usually didn't fight where there weren't any people.
Spotting Claude emerge from belowdecks, she raised a hand in a silent greeting. She'd have done the same to Lysander, but he'd already been on deck for a while and seemed currently occupied.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/8jC0CPm.png)"I can get that. Truth be told, I don't know jack about sailing, so... I nearly said 'in the same boat' but I think I'd have had to throw myself overboard for that." he grinned a little at that.
-
Gawen giggled a bit. A subdued giggle, but a giggle nonetheless.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Ah, the pun, truly the oldest and noblest form of wordplay. Oft not appreciated in the modern day, unfortunately."
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Though, I must ask; if you're not a sailor, what brought you to Ethan's crew? It seems he's no shortage of skilled fighters, to say the least."
-
Sitting on the decks, Angelica was mostly lounging around as their destination came in sight. Deciding that moving about would be good before docking, Angelica decided to walk around for a bit. Shortly after, she found Maria standing about.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"Oh hello. Maria was it? How are you faring?" she asks in a cheery voice.
-
Maria had been looking out to the sea, idly humming a little tune. She hadn't exactly been a sailor all her life, and this was the longest journey she had ever taken. She didn't jump out of her skin, but she was a little surprised when Angelica showed up.
(https://i.imgur.com/xEuwg3U.png) "Oh, Angelica, right? I'm doing good, just enjoying the air. How about you?"
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"The same thing really. I'm not usually at sea, so I'm trying to enjoy it as much as I can. Within reason of course," she says, looking out at the sea. "I'm just hoping Marcus doesn't act up too much while we're on the boat. He's been rather fine with it all things considered, but still," she mutters, seemingly lost in thought.
-

(https://s19.postimg.cc/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "I see. Sounds like whatever is waiting for us will be a surprise.
"So you used to work on a merchantman? If you don't mind me asking, how did you come to work for a privateer like the Captain?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/8jC0CPm.png)"I was hired in a port a while ago, with a couple of the others. Just before you showed up actually. Turns out, it's harder to find someone who knows how to work a set of picks than you'd think. Not the greatest at actually hitting people though, at least not compared to you and the others."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Circumstances change. They no longer trade. The captain helped me when I needed it, so I owe him a debt."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"I see." She supposed it would be rude to look down upon him for the ways in which he likely obtained the skills. She didn't have much respect for thieves, but she would do her best not to judge.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Well, each person has their own specialties. It's certainly easier to fight someone while dressed in plate; one has to worry a bit less about being injured, and all."

(https://i.imgur.com/osH6H8I.png)"Yeah; I've sailed before to get out to Di, but never this far." She held her hand out slightly, as if to feel the breeze even more.
(https://i.imgur.com/xEuwg3U.png)"Marcus, huh? Nice name for him. I have to agree with you that he's been really well, at least from what I've seen when taking care of Ophia, or in battle."
(https://i.imgur.com/gq0ofpC.png)"She's always been a skittish horse, but this job's had so much flying at her that it's the worst she's been in a long time. Yours at least seems stalwart; it's probably useful for ya when healing."
-
Upon noticing Lavinia's wave, Claude went straight towards her with a smile on his face. He slowed down as he got to a certain distance, almost as if hesitating, before shaking it off and getting to her side.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "I figured you'd be here. I was going to invite you to spar a bit but since we're getting close to land..."
(https://i.imgur.com/rZ6iW4V.pngg) "What do you say we arm wrestle instead?"
-
Lavinia almost snorted.
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "Arm wrestling? Are we trying to prove something?" It was unexpected, and almost a little silly. But she wasn't above it. She had challenged more than a few city guards to arm wrestling and other shenanigans when she was in her early teenage years.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "You know what, let's. Should we use a crate?"
Not the one Amberly had appropriated for her desk, though. That might end badly.
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"It has certainly been quite a boon for Marcus to be so reliable during a frenzy. In dire situations, having a mount that won't scare on you can make quite the difference. Though it may be because Marcus was originally a battle horse from what my father told me when he acquired him. she explains as she begins to stretch a bit.
-
Maria drummed her fingers on the side of the boat as the two continued talking.
(https://i.imgur.com/osH6H8I.png)"Oh, yeah, that'd do it. Ophia was originally bred to be a racing horse, but since she's here now, that kind of didn't happen. If anything, she's at least fast enough to get away from most things. Hmm... How long have you had Marcus, anyway?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "What do you mean?" Claude asked, frowning a bit in face of Lavinia's reply.
(https://i.imgur.com/rZ6iW4V.pngg) "It's just a time-killer and a way to compete. You know I love these little contests. And sure, let's use a crate." he continued, heading downstairs.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Oh, nothing then." Claude did like his contests. Lavinia had wondered a few times before if they were competitive in the same way - it did spur her on the same as it did him, but he seemed to dwell on the results longer.
Belowdecks on the Blackbones was a bit crowded as well these days, with so many mercenaries' equipment and personal belongings there as well. She still thought "mercenaries" on occasion, but most of the time these days they were closer to crew. They had a common cause, and she was paid to fight too.
(https://i.imgur.com/iqXiz4P.png) "Not much room down here. We might need to bring it up," Lavinia said as they found a suitable crate. "...And about the Captain and Lysander. Do you think we ought to do anything?"
She had known them a relatively long time; she figured maybe she ought to do or say something but also probably knew them well enough to leave enough alone.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "All my time working with numbers and working as a merchant factor never prepared me to deal with emotional hurt. They're grown men, I think they'll be fine... Maybe we could try convincing the Captain to apologize, but he's stubborn."
That said, the situation was just a bit frustrating for Claude since he couldn't do anything major to help, and he disliked that feeling.
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "We can bring this one up, but we'll need to secure it." Claude agreed, helping lift the crate to take it upstairs.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Right. That sort of thing's not as simple as fighting." Or it was, just in a way she didn't understand. In those kinds of situations, she didn't have the sort of intuition that in battle guided her lance where it needed to go.
Lavinia shrugged lightly, and lifted the crate with Claude. When they made it to the deck again she went to find a rope to lash down the crate.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Shouldn't be difficult. Is there anything in this?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "Yeah, I'd rather keep cracking numbers than get my nose into that kind of problem. We could try, since you're the First Mate and all."
Claude helped tie the crate onto one of the many supports on the deck made exactly for that purpose.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "I know these crates as if they were my offspring, and this one has oranges." Claude replied with a confident smile, putting an arm on the crate.
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"How long? Goodness, its probably been about 20 years I suppose. When I was younger and still mostly in training, my father decided that I would need a strong horse that can assist me. Truth be told at the time I wasn't exactly amused at the idea, but Marcus grew on me over time. Now he's quite the reliable horse," she answers, giggling a bit at the end.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"As for race horses, I can't say I'm particularly familiar with how they're raised, but I could see how that could cause a few issues. But as you say, they are quite fast, and that can have its own uses."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/bkscgbx.png)"Yeah. If Ophia wasn't a mare, she might've actually been racing a few years back. Of course, being so light, she doesn't like having other people on her that much. Battle horses tend to be more reliable for that."
(https://i.imgur.com/xEuwg3U.png)"20 years, huh? No wonder why he's so reliable, then. Your father was smart with that choice."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Still could, not should."
Lavinia regarded Claude's adoptive oranges with a careful eye before sitting at the crate and readying her arm.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "We'd better not lose it then, or we'll all get scurvy."
-
Claude clasped Lavinia's hand and smiled, his gloved hand squeezing hers as he hyped himself up.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "What do you say? Best of three?"
Gonna be joining Discord so we can figure out how to decide the results?
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "Sure. Just don't break your arm before we're done."
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "You count down."
-
Claude's smile disappeared as he got a bit more serious, moving his fingers and preparing for the showdown of strength, technique, and petty competition.
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "Three... Two... One... Go!" Claude groaned as he put strength into his arm, muscles tensing and face contorting into one of concentration and focus as he fought Lavinia's equally-strong push. He tried to go for two sequential spurts of power, and he got her on the second, gaining an upper hand and getting the back of her hand to touch the crate.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "And that's one for me. You can count down this time." he said triumphantly, letting go for a moment to move his fingers before grabbing Lavinia's hand once more.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/iqXiz4P.png) "Ah, blast it!" Maybe she was getting a bit into this competition as well. Lavinia took a moment to stretch her arm out as well when Claude disengaged.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Three, two, one... go." Her eyes narrowed as they began once again. They were about the same strength, so it just came down to everything else - tactics, luck, will. And she had that will. She wasn't going to lose two out of three on only the second round.
They struggled for what seemed like a longer time than it was - then with a thump she forced his hand down. She let out a breath she didn't know she'd been holding.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Come on. Last one."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "It's more exciting when it's down to the last one, right?" Claude would much rather win two in a row, of course, but the tension wasn't unwelcome either.
He grabbed Lavinia's hand, squeezed it and got his head in the game. It was a simple pattern, and he was going to win after losing once in the middle.
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "Three, two, one, go!" This time he counted down faster, and went for a quick thrust in the beginning. When that failed, he still managed to stand his ground and what followed was a lengthy standstill.
Both of their arms trembled, elbows grinding against the crate's lid as they refused to yield. Despite initially seeming dismissive of his idea, Lavinia seemed to have gotten into it as much as Claude had. As they struggled for several long seconds, for whatever reason it occurred to Claude to slowly move his gaze up and see how Lavinia was faring, how focused she was. It was then that he noticed; had he ever actually looked at her from that close? He lost his concentration for a second. It was a fatal mistake.
That moment of weakness, of interrupted focus, was all it took for his arm to push down towards the crate, a fact he noticed a bit too late. It was a struggle of less than one second as he tried to fix his mess but the back of his hand readily slammed against the wooden surface while he tried to push back. He lost.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "What. Wait, I lost..." Claude was honestly more lost than disappointed right then.
-
Lavinia was as surprised as he was.
She had seen something out of the corner of her eyes. She had been absolutely focused on the competition and yet she had seen something and, more importantly, felt something - an odd give in his arm before it slammed down on the crate. She opened her mouth and closed it again, examining his face for a moment before returning to her normal self.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Guess that makes me the winner." Lavinia stood, shaking her arm out a bit, but her eyes remained on him. "You want to go watch the island get closer?"
Normally she supposed she should have felt good about the victory, but it didn't make sense to her. Claude wasn't the type to let her win.
-
Claude let go of Lavinia's hand and clenched his own, tensing and relaxing his fingers for a few moments.
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "Yeah. You won."
He was terribly self-conscious about what he'd seen and what had happened even if he didn't want to let it show. So when she offered to watch the island's approach, he was pulled out of his little moment of weirdness and into another. He still nodded.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Yeah, let's. We can put the crate back in its place later."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/8jC0CPm.png)"Fair enough, although it does make it easier not to get hit. That stuff's heavy, I've heard." He paused. "So. Wondering what you think of the others, to be honest. Besides the one you came with of course. First impressions were... definitely not pretty on either end. Wondering if anything's changed."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Circumstances change. They no longer trade. The captain helped me when I needed it, so I owe him a debt."
Amberly thought that maybe, just maybe, she was homing in on what was bothering the gloomy privateer.
(https://s19.postimg.cc/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "...the fact that you owe the captain a debt does not making speaking up against him the wrong thing to do. You know that, right? He was way out of line when he threatened the townspeople."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"The others. . . Yes, our first meeting could have gone much better than it did." Her tone grew a fair bit more somber. "I wish I could say I had a more favorable impression of them. The more scholarly ones, I have no issue with, but Ethan's crew seems to have taken deep issue with my approach. That, and they may well feel as if I am threatening their chances at wealth - which I suppose is true, in the way. I've no intention of these artifacts going anywhere other than their rightful places, money or no. This combined with the whispering and the hostility I've noticed. . . to be honest, I fear the worst about their intentions."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/8jC0CPm.png)"Honestly? From how it's sounded to me, it's mostly the captain who's like that. Sure, most of the crew's loyal and all, but that stuff in the town probably showed it's not all 'to the ends of the Earth' loyal, if you catch my meaning. I hope there doesn't end up being a need to test that."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"I suppose. I haven't had much chance to speak with the rest beyond our first meeting. At least, no chance that the other party would have liked to take as well. I do wish there was some way to defuse these tensions; I've never been particularly talented in the art of diplomacy, and the easing of hostility I expected from fighting alongside them does not seem to have occurred."
-
A quick smile flashed across his face.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Oh I know. No regrets about that. I would do it again and I told him as much."
-
Back to square one, then.
(https://s19.postimg.cc/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "That's good to know. I'm sure any number of pirates got their start when their crews stopped saying "no" to them."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/8jC0CPm.png)"I've noticed. To be honest, I figure a few of these folks just are the type that don't like nobles on principal. And sorry to say, your introduction did kind of give off the impression you were trying to throw your weight around, even if you did have good reasons."

Gawen shook her head.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"I feel as if that is an unfair interpretation of my words, even if I did not put them in the best order. I said it then, and I shall say it again; my only meaning was that, as someone born and raised to be a guardian of this country - at least, that is how I choose to view my title - that I should be closely involved in doing so.
Still, I suppose I cannot fault them too much. Many nobles are not particularly such."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/8jC0CPm.png)"I realize it's unfair. Doesn't mean it's not how it sounded." he said, shrugging. "And yeah. I think it's not so much many as most, from what I've heard and experienced. Whatever the first impression was like, it is good to see that at least a few take that noblesse oblige thing nobles sometimes go on about seriously."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"It is a shame that so many abuse their privilege, yes. I could go on about the true purposes of noble privilege, but I doubt you would be interested in hearing such thing. But. . . I do want to point out that there are more good people in the nobility than you may believe. You simply don't hear talk about a noble that does not extort taxes from his tenants, does not beat servants on a whim, and so on. The others simply overshadow them at times, to put it lightly."
-
The smile fell away as Lysander turned back, staring towards the ocean.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"I'm sure they do. Though it seems some start even without their crews consent. I hope the captain doesn't go down that path."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/8jC0CPm.png)"Fair enough. Nothing scandalous or interesting about a nice guy so nobody talks about them."
-
Gawen nodded, and then was quiet for a moment or two.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Quite honestly, that is part of the reason I began travelling. It was mostly to see the world and escape from yet another dull lesson on how to properly eat a roast without offending somebody's grandmother or what have you, but I also wanted to show the common folk that not all nobles are the scum we are often presented as. It. . . pains me, to be so quickly lumped in with them by the others."
-
Amberly was silent for a moment.
(https://s19.postimg.cc/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "I think...that so long as people like yourself and Claude are on the crew you may be able to keep the Captain from going that path. And of course, a number of others that are here would oppose him as well. I wish I could offer greater reassurance, but..."
-
Lysander sighed and shook his head.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"I don't usually worry about it. It was just a bit scary how quickly he turned to threatening the innocent and talking about throwing people overboard for disagreeing with him."
-
The Blackbones finally arrived to the island in their sights. When they got closer, Ethan saw there was a rudimentary dock built into the cliff face. Steering the ship towards it, the crew prepared some planks to cross over, while some people at the deck moved towards it.
Hey! You're not Beautiful Joe's crew! How did you find us?
Despite the question, the dock people unsheathed their weapons and readied for a pirate welcome.

The captain looked at the welcoming committee, and then at his crew.

P-33

Lysander found himself overcome with shivers, frozen in palace. No. No way. They'd said that purates wouldn't come here why where there pirates here. Clutching onto his staff, he stumbled a few paces back, shaking his head.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"I... I can't. Ash... I just... I can't."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "...I was attempting a joke. We just kill them all." He looked at Gawen.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "I will delegate any freed captives under your jurisdiction!"
-
Ashlyn had just drawn her axe when Lysander called out to her in between his stutters. She remembered that'd he's frozen in fear during their mock battle and now the pirates were real. He must be terrified. Without thinking, she moved over to him and pulled him into what she hoped was a comforting hug.
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"It's okay Lys. I won't let them hurt you. And you're not alone anymore, y'know? You're a part of the crew, and we stick together. We'll take care of them for you."
-
The hug was awkward, uncomfortable, hard, and yet exactly what Lysander needed. Clinging to her for a brief second, he shook his head.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"I just... I'll... I'll stay behind you. Ok? I can't fight them... Not yet."
He released her, knowing on some level that he needed to go fight, but not wanting to leave the deck of the ship that was somehow so comforting in the moment.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"That's fine. Remeber, I'm the one who's supposed to be taking the hits, remember?" Ashlyn said with a slight smirk as she released Lysander. "It's alright to take your time, Lys. After all, the tower wasn't built in a day."
-
He did his best to smile before shakily moving ahead, still keeping a good bit of distance between him and the pirates.
R-33
-
Seeing that Lysander was doing better Ashlyn got her head back in the fight.
R30
-
Gawen considered pointing out that she wasn't actually a member of Ethan's crew, merely offering her fighting prowess and pursuing a similar goal, but elected to hold her tongue in that regard. Best not to ratchet up tensions.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"I do take that sort of thing seriously, Ethan. Call me humorless if you will."
-
The quartermaster had been quite immersed in his thoughts ever since he'd lost the armwrestling match to Lavinia, though approaching land gave me something to do other than apparently being too worried about the result of a petty competition.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "And I thought this place was deserted. We just can't get a break." Claude said after nodding to Ashlyn since she had Lysander's problem handled much better than he'd be able to and advanced.
Claude to R-29.
-
Well, at least someone was on hand to handle all that emotional stuff. Calling it "emotional stuff" did kind of sound disparaging, but she didn't mean it that way.
Lavinia figured Ashlyn was a pretty good lookout. She was looking out for Lysander right now.

Q, 33.
Vortai was still with a book on his hand when he stepped forward to check the current situation.

-
O, 33, make sure jav is equipped for safety reasons
Maria looked back at the crew, then back to their welcome. It seems nobody was really expecting this, especially Lysander. At the very least, Ashlyn seemed able to help him out. She gripped her javelin in her hand as she awaited the enemy.

The figure inside, a man with red hair and a rather prodigious amount of red and yellow robes, was a bit disheveled, sitting on the floor in the (formerly) locked room with his mouth set in a rather resigned looking line.
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"What is it now--"
Then he saw who actually had opened the door, and he perked up noticeably, though he was clearly shocked, stumbling over his words.
(http://i61.tinypic.com/2ed9gfc.png):"Wwwha-- ah-- uh-- oh, you... don't look like a pirate."

(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"Apparently pirates, uh, don't really like archaeologists."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/8jC0CPm.png)"Oh? You'd think you'd get along, since you both look for ancient treasure and all. Or maybe that's exactly why they don't like archaeologists? Well, yeah, we're not about to take you captive or anything. Got a weapon or something to help us clear out the idiots here?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Well, we tend to take it from centuries-dead people, and they take treasure from alive people, would be the main difference there. And, uh... I can use fire tomes, but..."
The mage looked at the floor, with a downcast expression.

(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"Going into the middle of a battleground does sound dangerous, but being alone and unarmed here in an unlocked cell for stragglers to get to sounds worse, I'm afraid. I'll follow you."

Hm? Yes I have them with me," Angelica replies, looking towards Marlow and the man besides him. "And who might you be?
-
Fer slinked out behind Marlow: looking outside, he had seen that there was in fact a rather raging battle out there, and judging by the people up front on the ground and the nun with the arrow in her, it was a pretty bloody one. A green-haired woman rode over, brought the nun back up, and then addressed him, and Fer at least had the politeness in him to reply to her.
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):""Erm... I'm Fermintxo Jasso, or, uh, Fer. I'm an archaeologist. Um, I was investigating rumors of old artifacts and they were here and must not have appreciated my being here, so, uh... yeah."
Fer darted a couple of glances towards the ongoing battle as he spoke and eventually after he trailed off:
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):""Do-- do you need help...?"
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281652278657024/Basedtroub-1.png)
"Call me Angelica," she introduces herself with a smile before listening to Fer's other statement.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"Well you won't hear me complaining about extra hands. If you're decent with fire magic, I've got a few tomes you could use to help out," she responds, holding out Alain's older tomes.
-
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"Right, well, I'll just..."
Fer stepped up towards the green-haired woman (Angelica was her name, okay,) and took the tomes with a nod.
Fer moves to N31 and resolves the Schrodinger's Inventory: those tomes are his now.
He flipped very briefly through each of the tomes, not more than a couple seconds with each. That first one was a basic fire tome he could recognize in his sleep, the rune matrix to ensure that the link to the fire Anima lingered caught his eye and told him one was the Singe tome, and the similarity of the third tome to the first but with its more complex ties to fire Anima and generally better construction told him that one was an Elfire tome.
With a nod to himself, Fer stepped into the combat and observed that there was a rather large and healthy fellow with an axe who had just finished taking down one of the people on the ground and who would probably dearly like to chop his head off. Fer didn't think he could take him down with one spell, so he folded the Fire and Elfire tomes into his many robes, and flipped open the Singe tome, glancing at one of its (actually self-contained) pages and the matrix of runes and sigils there in, raised his hand, and shot off a blast of fire at the pirate with a:

Maria would've been too focused to notice the fireball if the knight hadn't already taken care of her target. Instead, she got to watch a man in bright robes sling fire near where she was going to ride. Gripping the reins tightly, she decided to stab the archer quickly before getting out, lest she get burned. In the heat of battle, she hoped that the man was on their side, and that wasn't a misfire intended for someone on the crew.

Fer winced as he watched the pirate he had fired the Singe off at burn slowly to death. It wasn't the first time he'd burned someone to death, of course, since he'd been accosted by bandits during his journey before -- and being that they were in rather smaller groups than these pirates, he'd had some success. He still felt a bit bad for the man he had just incredibly painfully slain, though.
Still, it had ended the fighting here, and now he was just, uh, kinda standing in front of the rest of the group. ...oh, and one had greeted him. His usual painfully awkward nervous smile made its way onto his face.
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Uh... hello. Um, he," Fer pointed at Marlow, "freed me from there." He pointed at the room he had been taken captive in.
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"...uhm... because I'm an archaeologist who came here because I heard rumors of some historical artifacts."
-
Amberly (after a brief moment of wondering if she had been forsaken by the Old Gods and cast into the Pit) finally regained her senses enough to rise and greet the newcomer.
(https://s19.postimg.cc/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "How curious. We also come seeking an artifact that should be on this island. I do not believe this is a mere coincidence."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "We're a privateer crew with a few new additions, and we're currently undergoing an unlikely quest. We can explain it later."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"I wouldn't have expected to meet an archaeologist here, but I suppose one should expect them to crop up nearly anywhere, no?
Did you mention your name, by the way? I'm afraid I was a bit distracted." She gestured vaguely at the pirate slumped on the deck with twin lance wounds.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Er, well, I didn't come here seeking an Artifact, singular, any more than I usually do at least, I mostly just latched onto a rumor around the archaeological community that there's an Old Alvadan site here that might be of some value. Noone else really wanted to go out to Demon's Grin because it's so remote and the area's well outside of effective patrol, but I kind of tend to go for these lone, remote sites."
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"I've been here for a little while now, though, so maybe they were right. Since you've freed me, though, do you mind if I tag along with you while you, and I suppose then we, clear out the rest of these blasted pirates?"
He turned to Gawen.
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Oh, and my name is Fermintxo Jasso, or... you know, just Fer, I know it's a long name, heh heh."
-
(https://s19.postimg.cc/4z7bpwewz/amberly_veil.png): "Well...speaking for myself, at least, the addition of another scholar would be a great help regardless of your ability to fight. I can't speak for the Captain or Miss Gawen, but I'd be happy to have you "tag along"."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Ferminxto Jasso? I've heard of the Jassos, they're quite well known among the nobility of Alvada. I am Gawen of House Cawallader. The good captain was kind enough to give me jurisdiction over anyone we might find," Gawen's voice turned rather dry at this statement, though it fairly quickly moved back to her normal tone, "so I don't believe there's an issue with you coming along until we've disposed of these pirates, at least."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Ah, Cawallader, I believe I've heard that name before a couple of times, though I've never really dealt with the noble houses directly. And, uh, thank you, both of you. I suppose I'll move forward then."
He nodded at Amberly, which was supposed to be a simple nod of acknowledgement but ended up feeling to him like some sort of, like, awkward unnecessarily added-on thing.

(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Would you all like to surrender now, and obtain my goodwill in your inevitable trials, or die a messy and violent death now?" Gawen called out to their foes. She would offer mercy even to these wretches. . . but she wasn't fond of pirates, and her experiences thus far had not exactly softened her thoughts on them.
-
Fer wasn’t going to say anything about it, but he was rather less than optimistic about the willingness of a bunch of hardened pirates beyond the edge of civilization to turn themselves in.

Well, yeah, the pirates had in fact decided to burst into horrific violence. Still, being in the midst of a bunch of evidently very competent fighters did a great deal to boost Fer's confidence in being able to take them, rather unlike when he'd been alone. He moved behind the Cawaladder woman, and switched tomes to fire from the rather well-used basic Fire tome -- he wouldn't need anything more, with the state of the pirate wyvern rider.

Meanwhile inside the large building, the pirates are gathered around two particular members playing craps. One of them was a rogue, proficient at these games, while the other was a grunt that threw the die around like they owed him money. The pirates were cheering as they were at the last round.
Grunt G: 2+11=13
Sneak C: 13+18=31
The smart ones that gathered around the sneak cheered as he pocketed the winnings, while the others made their frustration loudly obvious.

The chest had seemingly been dragged from somewhere else, and the ancient design suggested it was there much earlier than the pirates. Its contents might confirm that theory since the dark magic book contained scriptures not commonly seem anywhere else.

Fer took a shaky breath as he got into position -- sure, Fer had had the occasional battle against highwaymen to draw from before now, but being part of a group currently preparing to kick down a door and storm the inner sanctum of a pirate base, well, it was a new experience, and a bit of a terrifying one. It did seem to be working though.

"Quite. Well, time to do my work," Angelica remarks as she sees the two by the walls get taken down. She decides that clearing the way to the door would be the most effective, and decides to move the captain to a safer position.

Marlow to I-11, Iron Knife Sneak C

If Sneak C dies, Amberly goes to H-11, takes a vulneray from Vortai, and uses it on Lavinia.

With the battle over Ashlyn stowed her weapon and made her way over to Lysander.
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"Hey, Lys, how're ya holding up? I told you we'd handle them for ya just fine."
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"Nicely done Gawen," Angelica replies after seeing Gawen clean up this Jack character. She then moves to pick up the newcomer who is currently a pile of blood and robes.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"Up you go. Fer was it? How are you feeling?
-
Gawen kicked the corpse off of her lance, wiping the end of it on the man's shirt.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Thank you, Angelica. Though I can't help but wonder about the competence of our 'handsome' friend here, if he couldn't land a single blow on me with that axe of his." She glanced downward, at the other fallen pirate. "You may want to tend to the good Captain Valle, as well."
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "That battle took some time," Amberly said to no one in particular. After dusting herself off and saying a quick prayer for the fallen, the nun approached the now quite-ragged man they had rescued earlier.
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "Mister Jasso, I would like to speak with you about this island once your strength is recovered. Please, take as long as you need."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/XcjiAZV.png) "All that bravado and he is already dead. That's a tad disappointing."
-
Fer stood up with a groan with Angelica's help, taking a moment to get his robes into order and straighten himself out before speaking.
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"This may not have been my first battle (though, of this size...), but, well, ah... I've certainly been better."
He winced as he carefully stretched his limbs.
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"I'd be happy to talk about what I know of the island, but I'm afraid it's not very much, since I... didn't actually find what I was looking for before, well... yeah."
Fer kind of just gestured weakly at the dead pirates.
-
Claude helped Lavinia back up while smiling, offering a hand and using quite a bit of strength to help his armored friend back up, even if she was doing most of the work. He'd won once again, not that he felt like boasting about it just yet.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "How are you feeling?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Bravado tends to be inversely proportional to combat skill. A truly threatening opponent has no need to tell you he is such."
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "Yes, I recall that you came here looking for artifacts. If you don't mind me asking, what first led you to this island?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Erm... well... I really do hate to have to admit this, but...
...well...
I had run out of leads, so I was sort of following rumors in the community in hopes of finding a site that hadn't already been investigated and looted."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "I'd have liked to take down a few more of them, but what else is new?"
Lavinia put some of her weight on her lance once Claude let go. When the fight was still going, it didn't matter if she was up or down, if her legs could even support her - she wanted to fight and that was almost all that mattered. Now, when the fight was over, things hurt a bit more. But it was nothing a little rest and healing later wouldn't fix up.
She scanned the others briefly, as they all seemed to be taking a short breather as well, then turned her attention back to Claude.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "After all that, though... wonder what this all had to do with the orb."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Pirates are cretins. It's not like we managed to get much information out of them before sending them to the afterlife."
Claude's breathing had started to normalize after the adrenalin high that came with combat and being wounded, and as his mental state shifted from 'combat' to 'normal', he noticed he was quite close to Lavinia. He became self-conscious once more, and almost took a step back to make some distance before realizing it'd look weird just as he tensed his body to do it. He relaxed again and sighed.
His own behavior was weirding him out.
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "So, hm. The orb."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Yes, the orb."
There was a small pause. Claude didn't seem to be contributing quite as much as she'd expected. Probably taking all his willpower to keep from bragging.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Just wondering if the pirates had something to do with it all too. Bracelets, treasures... Pretty far from civilization here." Lavinia gave what counted as an easy shrug given her wounds. "Not much prey."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Yeah. If there are—or were—any ancient relics around, they've been pilfering it unless they haven't found it yet."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/XcjiAZV.png) "I suppose so. But considering he was apparently leading these pirates, I was expecting him to at least...Be a tad more challenging. But I am not complaining about the outcome, after all this battle has lasted for far too long."
-
Ethan, for his part, contributed to the plot by continuing his important duty of bleeding out on the floor.
-
With her work with Fer done, Angelica heeds Gawen's advice and decides to move over to the captain, where she stares at him a bit before healing him.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"There. That should be everyone off the floor now."
-
The Captain stood up and brushed himself off.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Three things of importance - Marlow and Ashlyn, tie the remaining pirate up and toss him into a cell somewhere. Claude and Lavinia, take a look at the pier and docks, stare on the horizon if maybe there's a ship sneaking upon us." He then approached Gawen and looked at the Boarding Axe.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "If you're not planning to use it, I would really like to have it."
-
Gawen glanced between Ethan and the axe for a moment. It was an unfamiliar design, but it bore enough similarities to other weapons she'd seen that it's purpose was fairly clear. Dealing with armored foes, as the previous owner had implied, but ones on horseback as well. In short, not a weapon she particularly wanted near herself or her retainer. Still, perhaps the clear gesture of trust would mean something to the privateer. She had little confidence in such a thing, but. . .
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Very well. I trust you'll use it wisely, Captain Valle." She held the axe out horizontally toward Ethan.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Great." He took the axe and swung it slowly around, testing it, before pointing the sharp edge toward Fer.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Now tell me how did you get caught by the pirates, because I think I didn't pay enough attention during fighting."
-
(http://i61.tinypic.com/2ed9gfc.png):"Wha—"
(http://i61.tinypic.com/2ed9gfc.png):"Huh—"
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"B..."
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"Wouldn’t— wouldn’t the way to threaten me with an axe be, uh, raising it instead of pointing it at me? Because axes need momentum and, uh, actually"
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"Nevermind,"
(http://i61.tinypic.com/2ed9gfc.png):"Uh,"
(http://i61.tinypic.com/2ed9gfc.png):"I came here on my own following rumors of an archaeological artifact and, uh, I didn’t know there were pirates... and I was alone, so. . ."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Artifact?" Ethan lowered his new axe.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Now I'm interested, tell me more."
-
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"Whew. Uh... there are rumors floating around the community that the archipelago is home to an Old Alvadan artifact — and I mean Old Alvadan, pre-Reckoning. I don’t know where the rumors come from, and they’ve never been confirmed, but they’re pretty widespread in the community, and I was getting desperate for leads, so..."
-
There was a pause.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "So you're meaning to tell us, that, based on mere rumors and fairytales, you sailed all the way here, alone, without even hiring a mercenary or two, and decided to spend who knows how long away from civilization in search of an old trinket." He rubbed his chin.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Any idea what that artifact is supposed to be?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Well, the Jassos are well-known for their passion for history. Is it really that shocking to discover such an individual here?"
-
Ethan looked at Fer, then Gawen, then Fer again.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "That means he's nobility or what? Never heard of his family."
-
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"Well— fairy tales from very smart people— look, I hit a dead end and these islands were supposed to be deserted so I thought it was a good idea at the time."
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"Uh, from what I’ve heard though, it’s rumored that there are three of these artifacts and that they’re especially important — maybe for discovering something about Old Alvada, but the rumors weren’t so specific as that. They did say though that these three of them — whether they’re together or apart I don’t know — are a bracelet, a circlet, and a ring."
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"And no, not noble. Old mage family, we run the biggest and oldest magic library in Duo Alvada."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"I wouldn't expect that someone such as yourself would have, Captain Valle."
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Did you find anything before you were accosted? You could say that this expedition is another archaeological one, of a sort."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Well, in my childhood I had no time sitting on cozy pillows reading books about important families while being hand-fed grapes, Miss Gawen." He cast Gawen a passing glance, before speaking to Fer again.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "We're probably pursuing the same thing, then. I give you two choices - either you join us and cooperate, and we find the thing together. Otherwise, I will have to view you as a rival in the pursuit for the artifact, and, well." Ethan patted the new axe.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Think of us as bodyguards. Free of charge. Although maybe I should charge you, hmm...."
-
Gawen couldn't suppress a snort at the image.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"I think you may have me confused for another, Captain Valle. Though I somehow doubt you've had the. . . fortune of meeting Blodwen." She gave a small shake of her head, almost ruefully, then turned her gaze to Fer.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"I do agree that it would be best if we work together; I believe your purposes and ours are aligned. Though regardless of your choice, I would not allow you to come to harm."
-
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"No, I’m afraid I didn’t find anything — it wasn’t long after I set foot on this place that I got captured. In fact, I lost months of notes when the pirates stole my notebooks from me..."
And then...
(http://i61.tinypic.com/2ed9gfc.png):"Whoa! I probably would have said yes to joining you anyway, so..."
Fer looked at Gawen.
(http://i61.tinypic.com/2ed9gfc.png):"Does— does he do all of his recruitments this way??"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Splendid. Another uppity person I have to tolerate."
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "We will be moving out the moment I get word from my crew that no ship is coming. The pirate leader in here might've been bluffing, but it never hurts to check."
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/PJdPrvW5/amberly-veilangry.png): "Mister Jesso fought bravely against the pirates alongside your crew. You shouldn't treat him so harshly, Captain Ethan."
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "Unfortunately he does tend to act this way with newcomers, yes. It's a shame you didn't deal with Mister Claude instead; he's far more reasonable when it comes to recruiting."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"I'm not certain why you accuse mister Jasso of being 'uppity.' It's a term I've certainly heard applied to myself, but all the man did was act surprised at being threatened for no readily apparent reason."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Mmm... I don't... Hhhh."
Lysander suddenly found himself sitting rapidly down, his legs having given up on the whole supporting him thing rather unexpectedly. Now that he no longer had life or death healings to be made, his body seemed to have given out.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"I- I think that I need few minutes still... But I'm glad you didn't die. Thank you for that..."
-
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"I've been wantonly threatened with an axe, I feel like a little incredulity is at the least justifiable."
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"And, ah... thank you, Miss Cawaladder, and... uh... Miss...?"
...also, she'd mispronounced his name, it was Jasso, but-- uh-- well, Fer wasn't going to speak up about it in the middle of all this.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Fine, fiiiine... as long as he follows my orders. As a mage, he will be useful in future fights, because I have a feeling this adventure will involve lots more of fighting than it already had."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"That much, I suppose, we can agree on.
Now, mister Jasso; do you have any idea what these pirates might have done with your notes? They don't seem to be the most literate types."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"I’m... sure I will figure combat out. As for my notes, well, some of those mages that they were fighting alongside were probably from Xos, with the kind of magic they used. My notes probably got left somewhere then, unless carried by one of those dark mages. But, ah, looking through them is hopefully a last resort.”
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "Who, me? Oh. Just 'Amberly', if you please. I'm an initiate in the service of the Old Gods. Hopefully these Xosian mages didn't keep your notes on their persons. Otherwise..."
She especially hoped they weren't with the dark mage that she had flattened near the end of the fight. There wasn't much left of that one.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/Ig2SCCt.png)"Woah! Are you sure you're okay?"
Rather than trying to help Lysander up before he was ready to stand, Ashlyn decided to join Lysander on the ground, sitting down beside him.
(https://i.imgur.com/g6Ul2ug.png)"Course I didn't die. I had to make sure they kept their grubby hands off of ya."
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"Wouldn't do if I talked all big and then let ya down, get me?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Well, we were to scour this island for treasure, no? Perhaps we'll find the notes along the way." She gestured toward the rest of the structure, with its unopened chests and all. "Shall we?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "No."
-
Gawen couldn't quite keep the frustration out of her voice.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"No?"
-
Ethan crossed his arms on his chest.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "No."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"The inner workings of your mind are an enigma.
Pray tell: what, then, was the purpose of this venture? I would think the prospect of loot would have been more than enough for you."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Simple." He turned to the rest of the group.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Alright, now that we're here - we will be scouring the building for treasure, and for Fermin's notes. Check the corpses of the mages, nowhere else but for them to keep their hands on."
-
Gawen just looked at Ethan for a moment, then laughed.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"What goes for fighters goes for leaders as well, Captain Valle."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "And what would that be?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"As I said. It's a poor fighter that feels the need to shout about how threatening he is."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Then obviously I'm a greater fighter than you, considering I was the quieter one for the most of our journey together."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Whatever you feel the need to tell yourself, Valle."
-
Fer looked down at the same corpse that Amberly did, with a hesitant expression.
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Ah... yes, I certainly hope that they weren’t too. Hopefully Xosians would keep that sort of writing somewhere safer, anyhow. The only corpses I’ve searched are... well, centuries longer dead, so I think I shall search elsewhere. If you’re maybe from one of the magical or scholarly branches of the Church, Miss Amberly, perhaps you could search with me? It might be helpful.”
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Uh-huh. Now get to work, the corpses won't get searched by themselves. Fer and Amberly can search the crates to spare them some of the gore..." Ethan, for once deciding to set an example, began checking the corpses for Fer's notes.
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281667000795143/Basedtroub-ec4.png)
"Maybe I should have left him on the ground..." Angelica mutters seeing the situation unfold once Ethan regains himself. Once things have settled a bit, Angelica looks to Gawen.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"Well then, shall we search for treasure?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Well, we can check the bodies, but I believe we will need Marlow's assistance for anything of real note. Unless I've overestimated the intelligence of these pirates again."
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/nrpc328H/amberly-veilhappy.png): "A little of both, actually; I would be happy to assist. Lead the way, Mister Jasso."
-
Fer made his way towards one of the crates.
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Alright, he said to search the crates, so accordingly...”
Fer trailed off and remained silent long enough for it to turn awkward, before he cleared his throat and finally spoke up.
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"...so... ah... oh, right! Where are you from in the church, Miss Amberly?”
-
The nun, being more or less used to working in silence, was a bit startled.
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "Hm? Well, I'm originally from the Temple of Di. I've...sort of been recruited by the House of Scholars for this quest? The situation is a little unusual, but I can't complain."
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "I have not heard of the Jasso family. Where are you from?"
-
Vortai preferred just to keep distance from the mess, especially with Ethan's very questionable behavior and diplomacy.
(https://i.imgur.com/TQe9EKm.png) "I really hope the others don't let him do the talking whenever we face a situation that requires us to be cautious."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Ah, I’ve heard of the Temple of Di but I’m not very familiar with what it is. I’ve read and heard a lot more about the House of Scholars, though.”
The reasons for that were something of a sore subject, so Fer answered her question instead.
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"We’re an Alvadan family — very old, not noble, but we curate one of Alvada’s greatest magical libraries, in Duo Alvada, and have for several centuries now.”
-
Resting his head on her shoulder, he murmured,
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Yeah but you came pretty close there a couple of times... You can't protect me if you're on the ground bleeding out... Our crew is bigger now, I'm not able to keep everyone up off the ground anymore. So just.... Be careful. Alright?"
-

"They likely weren't that incapable, but that would certainly be nice if it were," Angelica remarks before looking for the still injured Marlow and healing him.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"Well Marlow, would you be interested in making a treasure run through this place with us?
-
Marlow had been sort of quiet this whole time, letting the... interactions, between Ethan and the others play out. That seemed over though, and Angelica was asking something.
"Sure. I was gonna ask, anyways - if there's something locked you'll probably need me."
-
Claude nodded to Ethan after receiving orders and headed towards the pier to check for any sign of ships, be they nearby or on the horizon. As he left with Lavinia he caught a bit of the corsair's characteristic rudeness.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Ethan really needs to work on his manners." he commented with a smile.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "I'd be a hypocrite if I said the same thing."
She wasn't necessarily the kind to choose violence over words, but she was suited for fighting and not so much for words. The difference in practice was arguable.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Are you seeing anything other than the Blackbones?"
-
Vortai briefly raised his head at the mention of "Jasso" , while he wasn't too sure if he heard it right due to the distance he decided to move closer to the nun and the mage. Even if his eyes were still on the book, he spoke up to question what he just heard.
(https://i.imgur.com/TQe9EKm.png) "Did I hear something about...Jasso family? I do know someone that goes by the name of Xanti Jasso. Is he related to you?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "As much as I look, I can only see it."
His sight wasn't exactly an archer's, but he'd been at the sea long enough to check for ships. He saw none.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Come on, I think you're fine." he added, complimenting Lavinia before he could put more thought into it and making him feel awkward for no apparent reason.
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "...You know that."
-
Uh, wow, this sure was something alright. Were they close enough for this? She'd hugged him earlier but this was a little...
(https://i.imgur.com/2JJylXt.png)"Y-Yeah, I know that... But someone's gotta do it... A-And I can dish it out pretty good too. I know there's the others, but..." Aw geez, this is annoying! She took a deep breath before continuing.
(https://i.imgur.com/Ig2SCCt.png)"But I want to feel useful. I can't help out much with the ship aside from physical stuff and with the crew getting bigger and bigger it feels harder to stand out. And me getting floored by every mage we fight just drives home that I'm just not fit for magic even though I'm from the tower. I mean my dad's a really skilled mage for crying out loud and I can't cast magic... But those rejects we put in the ground could!"
After her outburst, there was only silence. Before it could become too stifling Ashlyn spoke up again.
(https://i.imgur.com/MLBYo9B.png)"Hey, Lys, what do you think about me? ...Am I useful?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "...I know it? I think you're just too used to me."
But she didn't protest further.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Anyway, I guess we just have to stay on watch." After a moment, Lavinia gave the smallest of chuckles. "This feels like the time Ethan sent me shopping instead of you. Now it's us on lookout duty instead of Ashlyn."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "It has been a while." While Claude agreed with Lavinia on the surface, he felt like she was being modest. Ethan's manners (or lack thereof) were a pretty low bar to clear.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "It does. Sometimes it feels like Ethan just enjoys messing with us when it comes to delegating duties. Next time we know you'll end up taking care of inventory instead of me."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "That'll be a disaster. How you can stand to keep all those numbers in your head's a mystery to me."
Each of them had a place, a position. She knew what hers was, what she was good at. Wasn't numbers. Wasn't keeping an eye out. Wasn't healing. Wasn't being the Captain, other than relaying orders. Was even questionable if she did that much managing of the crew. Still...
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "...I'm sure he's not just messing with us. We all have to do our part, even if it's not what we usually do."
With that Lavinia began moving slowly down the pier, checking the occasional body, glancing up at the horizon every now and then.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "We do, I was only joking." Claude replied when he noticed Lavinia sounded pretty serious about the topic, following behind her and patting one of her shoulderguards.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "We are doing our part. But are you worried about something?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Worried?"
Lavinia gave another small chuckle and shoved Claude a bit roughly with the arm that'd received his patting.
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "You almost sound concerned. I'm fine." She paused, seemingly considering something, then shrugged. "Why're you asking, though? This about the competition again?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "I am concerned. And what about the competition? I won, right?"
He then caught himself and smiled as if to reaffirm his confidence.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "I mean, I won again."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "That's more like it." Just a reminder to step it up next time. She couldn't get complacent, certainly not when she was behind but also when she was ahead.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Seems like it wasn't about the competition then. Turning the question on you - what're you concerned about?"
To be honest, she wasn't sure where they were going with this. But with nothing on the horizon yet, she didn't mind another back and forth.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Yes. We have axes, so we could force our way inside these chests, but that might damage the contents if it's something as delicate as notes." She walked toward the nearby chest, stooping to examine one of the bodies neaby before glancing expectantly at Marlow.
-
Fer turned to the newcomer -- and for just a moment, at the masked man's question, his face turned rueful. Nonetheless, his expression returned to its neutral one soon after.
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"...ah, yes, I am related to Xanti. I suppose that means that you are from the House of Scholars, Mister...?"
-
Having his question turned around at him caught Claude off-guard. His smile disappeared and he actually got to thinking. He recalled his defeat at arm-wrestling and his gaze moved from the sea to Lavinia. He started to wonder if he really hadn't paid too much attention to the crew before, and as his mind worked his eyes moved to take in her chin, lips, nose, hair and those sharp eyes that were staring at him. She'd just left combat and was far from unscathed, but that didn't change his conclusion.
She was beautiful. Well... That much was obvious and it wasn't like he hadn't noticed right when they first met. But while he hadn't paid too much attention before now he could feel warmth rushing to his face, like he was a country boy fawning over his first crus—Uuugh.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Cough, cough. Hrggnh." Claude half-choked, half cleared his throat when he realized something at the same time as he noticed he'd been staring for far longer than could be considered polite.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/TQe9EKm.png) "Yes, that is correct. But if you are related to Xanti, then how come I didn't hear about you?"
-
Only one of the shamans had notes on his body. Some were his own, and some were Fer's, but he only carried a fraction of what the mage originally brought with him.
Meanwhile Marlow worked his own brand of magic on the chests. They had been properly locked by the pirate rogues, but even then they were no match for the thief. In the nearest chest he found a bunch of junk and a neat exotic looking throwing blade, probably one of the rogue's personal possession. In the room with the throne though, the chest had a vicious lance, barbed and sharp to a deadly point, no doubt a real valuable weapon.
Marlow gets Shuriken and Killer Lance!
While searching in the throne room, Fer found the rest of his notes in one of the crates near the seat itself, which although used by the pirates seemed to be much more elaborate than them. But at the same time, he felt a chilly breeze come from none other than the throne.
While the lookouts were distracted, a ship had appeared on the horizon. It was clearly headed towards them, and while it was still a ways to go, it gave them a few hours at most to either find what they were looking for and leave, or have to face Beautiful Joe and his crew, either at the dock or in ship to ship combat.
-
The explaination started to make things fit. She was trying to prove herself, wanting to stand out. But she couldn't really do that if she was dead... Her question, before she added in the second part, made him realize what he was doing though and he quickly pulled his head up off her shoulder, a slight red tinge to his cheeks.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Err, s-sorry about that. Just... Leftover nerves from the battle I think... And of course you're useful! I mean, look at you. You're strong of course, but you're more than that. You've got a good head on your shoulders, you're certainly less... volatile than some of the crew. And it's not like magic is the be all end all... B-but if it matters so much to you... Maybe one of the others could help you. I mean... They seem to know a lot. Maybe one of them could give you some tips? N-not that you need magic. You're great without it. Just... If it bothers you this much. That's all.
-
Fer pursed his lips -- the masked man was definitely pursuing this line of questioning much faster than Fer had anticipated.
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"Ah... knowing Xanti, I imagine that he wouldn't want to talk about much of the times before the church, so that's... not that much of a surprise, I suppose. But I--"
Searching through one of the crates as he spoke, Fer caught a glimpse of some familiar brown notebooks, and he lunged with incredible speed into the crate to scoop them up into his arms.
(http://i58.tinypic.com/25aq1s6.png):"MY NOTES! Ah, thank goodness, I'd have been losing months of my life if I hadn't found these! Ah, but one's missing... one of the ones I managed to back up at home, though I'd still like to find it."
Pulling his upper half back out of the crate, Fer raised an eyebrow.
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Hmmm... I feel a breeze from the throne -- which is of Old Alvadan make, if I'm not mistaken. The pirates must not have built this place, but rather set up inside it, and I think there must be a passageway underneath. Perhaps we should get the rest of the crew -- that man Marlow who freed me is probably a good choice for making sure said passage can be entered safely."
Fer half hugged his notes to himself as he spoke, half started inserting them into areas within his robes.
-
Ah, so he hadn't meant anything by it. She felt both relieved and frustrated for some reason, as well as moderately stupid for letting it affect her so much.
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"Y-Yeah, no problem." This reassurance was just what she needed from Lysander right now. "Thanks, Lys," she said as she wrapped an arm around him and momentarily pulled him close. "And, uh, sorry for making ya listen to me complain. I know ya got plenty on your plate too. Maybe I can return the favor... Wh-When ya want to, of course!"
As for the whole magic business...
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"I thought about asking the masked guy that we picked up from the House of Scholars, but he seems kinda weird. And there's more to it than that. I know it sounds stupid, 'specially after I just exploded over it, but I want to figure it out myself. It's kinda my whole reason for being here. To be honest with ya, I was hoping the Orb would help with that. It's why I've been trying to hold on to it so much. Hasn't, uh, worked out yet."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"That, is a dangerous weapon," Gawen commented as she eyed the lance Marlow had revealed in the throne room. Jagged and vicious-looking, likely intended to catch and tear flesh. A brutal weapon, but powerful. "If you don't mind, I'll hold onto it for the time being - at least until it's decided whether myself or Maria should be using it." She strode up to the unlocked chest, reaching into it and grabbing the lance in question. Fer's exclamation interrupted whatever she might have said next (if it was anything.)
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Ah, that's good to hear. Both that there's a passage, and that you recovered your notes." She glanced at the sister. "Amberly, do you have any thoughts? I seem to recall you were the one who opened the passage last time."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"A-ah?"
Apparently she didn't mind the contact, given she initiated a hug not long after he pulled away. Well that was hood then. He could use it right now. He wrapped an arm around her waist as well, moving in closer as he did. This was nice...
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"It's biting to apologize about. You helped me at the start of the battle... I'm just returning the favor, right? Just like any friend would do. And... Hmm... I guess that makes sense. It matters so much to you that you want to be the one to figure it out... Well, in that case, you just have to keep trying, alright? I've got faith in you that you'll figure it all out somehow if you really want it. It'll work out. Somehow. It's gotta... Right?"
He realized his confidence had trailed off some towards the end but hopefully it wouldn't ruin his message. He Dave her an encouraging squeeze with the arm he had wrapped around her, grinning up at her as he did. Hopefully that would offset his awkwardness...
-
Wh-wh-what was was this!? Ashlyn had only meant to give Lysander a momentary squeeze, a "thanks for being there for me", nothing more. What he was doing was a whole lot more than that, wrapping his arm around her and sliding in close; he wasn't letting go either... Her face had been a bit pink from before, but now it was plenty red.
(https://i.imgur.com/2JJylXt.png)"L-Lys, could ya, um..." She was having trouble speaking, caught between wanting to peel herself off of Lysander, but also somehow enjoying his closeness. He didn't seem to be bothered, so maybe if she tried to ignore it there wouldn't be a problem? "Y-Yeah, I guess so. If you're rooting for me then I just have to keep trying! It'll work itself out..." probably.
She happened to look down and see him grinning up at her... So close! She quickly looked up and away, suddenly interested in the ceiling.
-
Earlier...
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "Oh, I've heard of that library! I always wanted to visit, of course, but my duties at the Temple meant that I'd never have gotten the opportunity. It must be fascinating, taking care of all those artifacts."
More recently...
Amberly had been going over some of the notes they had found when Fer spoke up.
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "A hidden passageway...of course! We found one just like it in Port Omega. There were a number of constructs and giant spiders down that one...it'll probably be at least that dangerous here. Perhaps you would prefer to remain out here, Mister Jasso?"
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"My, that's quite a find," Angelica remarks as she sees the new weapons. Glancing at her own equipment, she realizes that her healing staff is wearing down quite quickly. As such, she heads towards the only other healer in hopes that he may have an extra.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"Excuse me, Lysander? Do you happen to- oh?" she remarks before pausing and seeing him and Ashlyn together in an embrace.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281654384328724/Basedtroub-2.png)
"Oho?"
-
Fer shook his head.
(http://i58.tinypic.com/25aq1s6.png):"For as much as I groused about those pirates, I can't miss this. I'm an archaeologist, and I'm being given the chance to see an Old Alvadan passageway full of fighting constructs of Old Alvadan make? That's fascinating! I can't miss it.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/2JJylXt.png)"Huh, wha-!" To say Ashlyn was startled by Angelica would be a massive understatement. Her face was now completely scarlet.
(https://i.imgur.com/2JJylXt.png)"Wh-what do you want?" she asked defensively; however she made no move to disentangle herself from Lysander. Maybe he'd be able to talk their way out of this? He'd probably do a better job than she could manage.
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281654384328724/Basedtroub-2.png)
"Well, I wanted to ask Lysander if there were any more healing staffs around but..." she trails off, looking at the pair and Ashlyn's face before continuing.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281654384328724/Basedtroub-2.png)
"Should I come and ask again later?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/TQe9EKm.png) "I see. So he chose to keep family related business away from his studies."
Vortai finally lowered his book as soon as the mage seemed to be distracting himself with something else, which only made him tap his mask pondering.
(https://i.imgur.com/XcjiAZV.png) "Is that what you were looking for? I am surprised you chose to carry so many notes with you instead of finding a place to keep them safe. But I am not one to judge, if you carry them like that, I am sure you have your own reasons."
-
Amberly beamed behind her veil.
(https://i.postimg.cc/nrpc328H/amberly-veilhappy.png): "Well said! This adventure will be well-worth the danger involved, if a prize like Port Omega's awaits us at the end of it."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "...Claude?"
She might not be the ship's lookout, but she also wasn't blind. There was definitely something different about the way Claude was acting - not wrong, but different. And though she had never thought much about that sort of thing, she had an inkling of what this was about.
Lavinia cleared her own throat, and looked back out towards the ocean, breaking eye contact. Then she saw it. The speck on the horizon, the ship. That was a welcome interruption.
But it also helped clear up her uncertainty. Maybe she was misinterpreting his behavior - after all, the two of them had already admitted that others' feelings were hard to deal with, much less their own now - but it didn't matter. They were adults; more than that, they were crewmembers. Whatever this was, they could handle this.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "There's something coming," she said, and tilted her head briefly towards that dot in the distance. "We should get back to the others, let them know. And... we can talk about this later." She spoke the last few words quieter than usual, but her tone was not unwelcoming.
Then, she was back to normal. If he wanted to just play this off, gods forbid she didn't at least try to throw him a rope to get him out of the hole he'd dug.
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "You could always get some rest, too. I might take the chance to start winning again if you aren't feeling like yourself."
-
Claude would have never lost his cool in a business meeting, or when mingling in to take care of a deal. Now he felt utterly helpless after messing up horribly. Not only he felt ashamed for acting like an awkward teenager who'd just been caught doing something inappropriate, he also had no clue how to escape the situation now. Perhaps apologizing first for staring at her would be in order. In the end, Lavinia made the first move.
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "Talk?" he asked with a bit of surprise, having been thrown a lifeline he hadn't expected. Had she noticed his situation? Claude bit his tongue in silence for a couple of seconds to prevent himself from getting his cheeks flushed thanks to a mix of embarrassment and hope. He almost drew blood before calming himself enough.
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "Yeah. Talk." he said, before recovering a bit more of his usual tone when she went back to her normal one as well.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Ok, we'll talk later. We do have to tell Ethan about the ship, and I have to keep winning after all."
-
Fer glanced back at Vortai.
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"You could say that, yes. And I do get them backed up every time that I return to Duo Alvada, but I've been away from the city for four months now chasing leads on artifacts, so I haven't been able to back those up. The others I just keep on account of both their value for me and ease."
And back to Amberly.
(http://i58.tinypic.com/25aq1s6.png):"Ahhhh, I'm so glad I got them back! Ah, and... can you tell me more about Port Omega and what you found there, Miss Amberly?"
-
Lavinia nodded, somehow relieved herself at the return to normalcy, and took one last glance at the approaching speck before leaving to rejoin the others. It didn't take long to find Ethan and most of the others searching crates; Ashlyn and the healers seemed to be elsewhere at the moment. Maybe she'd just leave it to Claude to find them.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Not to interrupt, but we have visitors coming. Looks like a ship, probably the pirates' backup."
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "If we don't find what we're looking for soon, I'd say we're up for another fight."
Of course, she didn't look particularly unenthusiastic about the prospect.
-
Ethan let out a deep sigh.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Knew it will gonna happen." The Captain whistled with the help of his fingers.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "EVERYONE! A ship's coming! No more chit-chat and leg-resting! Search for the artifact! I'm not sure we want or have means to fight another group of enemies."
-
Amberly waved her arms over her head, attempting to draw Ethan's attention as she spoke to Fer. Having her face covered came in handy in times such as these.
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "Well, the constructs and the giant spiders, of course. A few other monsters as well. They were all inside a great underground structure of some sort; a temple perhaps, or a tomb. We didn't stay long enough to find out for sure. In the final chamber we faced some sort of guardian, and beyond that was a pedestal, upon which was a single bracelet.
"It was quite an adventure!"
-
The captain walked up to the nun.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "What is it?"
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "I believe that Mister Jasso has located our next artifact. It seems that there is a hidden passageway under this throne."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/XcjiAZV.png) "Ah. So much for having a peaceful day."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Hm, the previous one also was stored in a hidden passageway, was it not? Its the only lead we have." Another finger whistle and a wave of hand at all the people.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Hey, gather around, we're going underground!"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Perhaps not a risk-free action, but it does seem to be the best option. I'm not keen on having to fight through another pirate crew on the way out, though; perhaps we should find a way to seal the passage behind us."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"This throne is of Old Alvadan make, not something the pirates put up, and there's a breeze coming from below it, so that means there's a passageway under it. I have not tried to open it yet -- I figured Mister Marlow would be a good choice for that."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "I doubt they'd decide to destroy the Blackbones while we're away when they could capture it, but we should be quick in any case." Claude added as he arrived behind Lavinia.
-
"Huh. Secret passage. That's pretty cool actually." Marlow comments, as he starts to examine the throne for a mechanism to open that passage.
-
After fiddling around the throne for a bit, Marlow found a few switches and buttons to be used. There appeared to be some sort of combination to it but after a bit of trial and the throne rumbled and started shifting away, revealing a passage to a vault and an ancient inscription.
"Your intelligence is satisfactory. Go forward and claim your right."
-
Amberly hefted her tome and prepared to go inside.
-
Ethan decided to not wait anymore, for every second seemed could be important there, and thus he 'herded' the crew and others leading them alongside Amberly inside the secret place of artifact storage.
-
This time the walls didn't close in behind the party. Probably a good thing since this vault didn't have another exit.
Like the previous vault, this was pristine and greatly decorated, although with slightly different engravings. The pedestal in the middle held a ring, made of gold and encrusted with several gemstones that glinted with light of all colors. The design was similar to that of the bracelet they already had.
They had found the second Royal Treasure.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "In plain view, huh..." Ethan looked at the pedestal, and then at Marlow.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Fancy a search?"
-
Fer figured it was probably a bright idea for Marlow to check for traps -- in the meantime, he pulled out one of his notebooks, flipped it open, and began to write with a pen he also had with his notes.
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"With a line like 'Your intelligence is satisfactory', it's clear that the artifact was meant to be found and probably claimed, interesting... the Old Alvadans, then, must have had some purpose for these at some point in the future -- whether ours is that point I cannot tell. However, if this is a test, it means they had criteria for the users... I wonder what their thought process was behind this whole thing..."
-
Marlow nods, and approaches the pedestal cautiously. He would begin to check the thing for anything suspicious, something that might stop someone from grabbing the treasure or punish them for doing so - while he had "passed the test" earlier, what was to say there wasn't a second?
-
The pedestal seemed a bit too big just to hold a ring, but nothing made Marlow think there was anything wrong with it.
-
Fer, mumbling slightly to himself, turned to examine the carvings of the passageway, notebook in hand. What did they depict? What could he glean from it, with his training? Those were his thoughts at that moment.
-
The engravings had no meaning of their own. They didn't paint any picture of form any sentence in a mysterious language or ancient code.
However, Fer's experience with books let him know that he had seen designs like these before, in old magic tomes.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/XcjiAZV.png) "It is very suspicious to find this treasure so soon. Even with that little 'test', I somewhat doubt they are going to just hand it over after a single challenge."
(https://i.imgur.com/XcjiAZV.png) "I might as well examine this place just in case it ends up like the previous one."
Wander around and look for tomes, books or inscriptions.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Well, mister Jasso - may I call you Ferminxto? - the previous location had a trial of strength, formed of animated armor and the like. If this one was supposed to be a test of intelligence, then perhaps it's some kind of mechanism for determining that the holder of the artifacts is worthy? Though that does leave the question of what the final test would be. Faith, maybe? Hopefully not one of tact."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Yeah, we would both fail that one."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"For once, Captain Valle, I think we can agree. Diplomacy has never been my strong suit."
-
Fer cleared his throat, and spoke in a careful voice, even as he peered over the carvings.
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"We should be on our guard, and those of us with lesser ability to withstand magic even moreso -- perhaps they should move in the direction of the entranceway. These inscriptions are similar to those in old magic tomes, which I am an expert on, and in the worst-case scenario that might mean a spell trap in the entirety of this passageway. Even in lesser scenarios caution is warranted here."
-
Vortai didn't find any tomes in the vault, but he did find an inscription on the pedestal, in Old Alvadan language.
Roughly translated, it said: "You who are already of sound mind, take this Ring of Magic".
-
(https://i.imgur.com/XcjiAZV.png) "Hmm. According to this inscription, we should take the ring...But if this is a test of intelligence, then perhaps me, Fer or Amberly should take it. Just in case it is has some sort of magic seal to trigger against people unable to use magic."
(https://i.imgur.com/XcjiAZV.png) "Like Fer mentioned, spell traps can be something we will be facing here. So one of us should probably take it."
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "I already had the privilege of removing the bracelet from its stand. I feel it should be one of you two to take the ring."
-
(http://i58.tinypic.com/25aq1s6.png):"Hmmm... well... ah... I hope you aren't offended, uh," Fer still had no idea what his name was, "and while I can't know what your training is, I actually have quite the skill in resisting magical attacks thanks to having studied tomes, including Old Alvadan ones, for essentially all my life. Plus... well... after all of that, it would be nice to at least get a look at the artifact."
And Fer stepped forward, giving the others around him time to step back, and grabbed the ring.
-
Fer picked up the ring. The most notable thing was that Fer now was holding a very pretty ring.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Man, he's got the ring. I should've picked it up myself." With heavy heart and sadness in voice, Ethan had to accept that this very pretty ring was no in his possession.
Maybe, one day, when he will be old and busy taking care of his grandkids, he will get over it.
-
Amberly looked...confused. Or at least, the part of her visible did.
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "We now have two of the artifacts...surely something should have happened? Be happening now?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png)Well, that was... anti-climactic, I suppose. Uh... maybe we have to hurry now, though."
Fer began moving to exit the chamber, glancing occasionally at the walls.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/XcjiAZV.png) "Yes, this outcome was unexpected. But it does mean we will be taking less time here."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "What happens now? We leave, get on the ship, and outta this island." Again, leading by example, Ethan left first.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Let's leave before a lethargic trap decides to awaken and do its job while we dawdle." Claude said as he left with the group.
-
Amberly gazed wistfully around the room, wanting to study it for a little while longer, but decided that leaving now was better than having to swim after the ship later.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Indeed. And while I'm not adverse to sending more pirates to where they belong, it would slow us down." She followed after the group; initially bringing up the rear before deciding to get closer to the middle of the pack, in case Ethan decided to get exceptionally spiteful.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "It's too bad one of those fireball constructs didn't show up, though." Demolishing one was a good memory, and there hadn't been much she could do for this artifact. Seemed like Marlow and the mages had handled trapfinding well enough.
Lavinia followed the others out, in any case. They might not be getting into a fight with the pirates sailing in, but there'd be more than enough fights before they finished this.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/XcjiAZV.png) "Having a construct to study would be nice, I won't lie. But dealing with them fully active and attacking us would be a waste of time and resources."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"I'd have liked to take notes on them too, to be certain... but hopefully we'll get another opportunity later. I've taken notes on the carvings on the walls and the mechanism to get in, so that should give some study material."
Fer had already been leaving when Ethan moved out past him, and was with the group accordingly.
-
Lysander had been grateful for the distraction, following after the crew. He was a little surprised at the whole ease with which they got the ring, but he wasn't complaining. Either way, it was time to get out of here. Before the rest of the pirates showed up. He did his best to stay away from both Ashlyn and Angelica, not really wanting to deal with the awkwardness of being around either of them right now.
-
Ethan counted his sheeple, and satisfied with their numbers, he set sail for an even more distant place...
-
The Blackbones was able to sail before the pirate ship was close enough to chase them. But that doesn't mean they went unnoticed...
The captain of the Golden Visage looked through his spyglass at the ship hastily leaving their secret hideout's dock. His handsome face had a mix of worry and anger. But mostly anger.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/i8dcvt4mwp9tglh/joe.png?raw=1): Hmm... That ship doesn't look familiar. I have a bad feeling about this. I'll remember that ship, who knows who might need to be chased until the end of the seas.
~~Chapter 6: Demura~~
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/5gxwgmj92l7sv4g/ch6.png?raw=1)
Another week of travel across the New Sea, and at last the Blackbones entered Domirian waters- but this time not to raid a ship. They could be hostile waters if Ethan got marked as a pirate, but there was no choice if he wanted to find the last Royal Treasure.
And of course, the orb had pointed straight at Demura, the second biggest city only behind the capital itself, so who knew how hard it was to find the treasure, or how easy it was for Ethan to be recognized.
The resources aboard the Blackbones were starting to run low, but now that the port of Demura was in sight, the more important problem was how to approach it. After all, Ethan and his crew had boarded Domirian ships before, could they blend in with other ships coming in, or were they sailing straight to the wolf's den?
-
Claude sighed after taking inventory again and went looking for Lavinia or Ethan.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Stores are low and the Domirian might recognize us even if they don't remember the ship. We'll need a plan."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "I know that." Ethan rubbed his chin, staring at the port visible at the horizon.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "If no one bothers us while we're docking, we need to send a scout, or a group of them, while the original group hides. Marlow is a good choice."
-
Ethan kept thinking for a while longer.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "What you think about sending Amberly and Fermin? Neither are part of the crew, and honestly a scholar and a nun won't be off-place in a 'holy city' like this. Or the white robes guy, what's his name, Vortai."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/TQe9EKm.png) "We probably can blend in the crowd, yes. While our attires are unusual, we aren't exactly part of this pirate crew so I doubt we would attract much attention."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "A fair proposal, but I still think Marlow would be of help in that case due to his streetwise skills."
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "...And Captain, I know you want to be respected and feared but I still think you should tone down. We might end up in a situation where there isn't time for a 'part two', because the first part of your talk was enough to land us in irremediable trouble."
Then he noticed said white-robed scholar had suddenly appeared.
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "Where did you come from?"
-
Vortai didn't bother taking his eyes off the book, simply gesturing towards the direction he came from.
(https://i.imgur.com/TQe9EKm.png) "I was over there."
-
Listening in to the conversation regarding the city, Angelica decides to voice her thoughts, partially motivated by her own desire for new goods.
(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"If it's about not getting recognized, Gawen and myself could likely go without too much trouble."
-
Gawen nodded.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"We could go in addition to those named, as well. It is not unusual for a visiting noble to have all manner of folk in her retinue; it's possible my presence would actually deflect attention."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Fermin, Vortai, Amberly and Marlow, then. A larger crowd might gather attention... and if trouble comes to us, someone has to defend the ship. Truthfully, Gawen makes a better soldier than talker."
-
Claude sighed in partial relief. He didn't believe pushing the scholars by themselves would have been a good idea, since they weren't the most sociable bunch. At least Marlow could cover up their deficiencies.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Of course, that is all depending on the port authorities not troubling us even before we get there... The original crew should hide while the others take care of the arrangements. You better have learned some sailoring skills by now."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Hmm.. Mhm, that sounds good. Alright then. I believe that-" Ethan stopped to think. He did a small count of people he had on board, and who could pass as a Domirian captain and have the skills and authority to-
Oh.
Oh no.
Ethan let out a sigh, grumbled, cursed someone's mother, and then crossed his arms. A long while passed before he finally spoke:
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Gawen will be the best person to play captain when we hide under the decks. If anything, she can butt in her noble standing to silence the port authorities."
-
The only thing that betrayed how hard Gawen was trying to remain stonefaced was a slight twitch of the corner of her mouth upward.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"I believe I can do that, Captain Valle. I thank you for your trust."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Yeah, break it, and I will personally toss you overboard, with a boulder tied to your armor."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/TQe9EKm.png) "I agree to these conditions."
-
Claude sighed again. He had that idea but thought it was better to wait and see if Ethan himself mentioned it.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "I agree. Gawen and Angelica can take care of any diplomatic imbroglios in the ship itself." he added, glancing at Angelica as if to confirm she'd properly babysit her charge.
-
(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"I'm fine with these arrangements" she remarks, looking at Claude and making a slight nod.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Don't tempt me."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "And now that we've settled matters we should move downstairs before any passing ships catch a glimpse of us." Claude added, addressing Ethan before he and Gawen started a fight in hostile territory.
-
Ethan glared at Gawen, looked at Claude, and wordlessly went into the belly of the ship, taking the crew with him.
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "I have no objections, but...will my status cause any problems here? I know that Domiria has had issues with Alvada in the past...I'm just concerned that they will regard a devotee of the Old Gods with suspicion or hostility."
-
Fer spoke a bit less awkwardly than usual, mainly because he was mostly lost in musing.
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"Hmm... you know, this isn't actually my first time in Demura. There's an Alvadan museum here that I've done a minor collaboration with before, and it's a pretty scholarly city overall. Hmmm... Amberly, I imagine you might get glared at a few times but it's not likely the guard's going to come down on us, clergy and scholars aren't necessarily unknown here."
-
(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"A scholarly city you say? Do you know if they have any work on healing magic at all Fer?" she asks as she won't be able to head into the city herself.
-
As he went downstairs with Ethan, Claude answered Amberly.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "You all look and are very scholarly, so be discreet and follow Marlow's lead if necessary, he has the street skills."
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "And Gawen and Angelica, try not to use the noble card, this is Domiria."
-
Well, she wasn't looking forward to getting glared at, but Amberly could probably handle it. It beat getting dragged off to some dungeon the instant she stepped off the ship, anyway.
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "That's something of a relief. Thank you both."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Uhhhh, I don't one hundred percent know...? Staves are... not my area of expertise, really. But it's a really big city with magical tradition so there's probably staff-makers."
-
(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"I see. Well if you happen to stumble upon anything like that let me know." she requests with her eyes almost gleaming.
-
Despite his own interest in scholarly endeavors, Fer found himself taken aback a little by the strength of Angelica's excitement for healing magic, largely because he hadn't expected it, with how generally cool and professional she was.
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Uh... sure. Yeah, I'll... I'll let you know."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/XcjiAZV.png) "Is that all or should we keep an eye for anything else in specific?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "Get me another lance while Claude isn't watching the budget," Lavinia stage-whispered before heading belowdecks too.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Cheeky, aren't you?" Claude commented before lowering his voice.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "So what do you think about talking to Ashlyn about Lysander?"
-
Vortai raised his book again and gave a brief nod.
(https://i.imgur.com/TQe9EKm.png) "I will make sure to keep that in mind."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "Hey, you've got that fancy blade, and Ethan picked something up last battle. Can't blame me for wanting to keep up."
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "And why would we talk to her about Lys-- oh." She lowered her voice to match Claude's.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "About that business with the captain."
Lavinia glanced over at Ashlyn, then began trying to catch her eye with as much subtlety as she could. Mostly using her eyebrows.
-
Ashlyn didn't necessarily like leaving Gawen and the others in charge of the ship, but she knew that they really didn't have much choice. With a reluctant sigh, she followed Ethan below deck and rested herself against one of the walls. Claude and Lavinia seemed to be having a private conversation- Wait, was Lavinia... wiggling her eyebrows at her? Perplexed, she decided to head over.
(https://i.imgur.com/Ig2SCCt.png)"What do you want?" She asked in a whisper.
-
You know, that went better than expected. She wasn't really the kind for subtlety.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Claude, she's all yours."
What? She wasn't the kind for diplomacy, either.
-
Claude glanced at Lavinia with a look of disbelief.
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "Really?" he then sighed before straightening up and leading the group further away and towards his office desk for a better place to chat conspiratorially.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "So Ashlyn, this is about Ethan, and most specifically about Lysander. To be direct, I and L- I guess I alone will keep talking to Ethan so he tones down his confrontational behavior since it's doing us no favors."
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Since his penultimate outburst got Lysander worried and I have experience with negotiating instead of dealing with emotional problems, I have to say we'll be trusting you to help support him. You're the one who's closest to him and he seems to like your company so that's a plus."
-
About Lysander? Did they know about the thing at the hideout? Had Angelica told them? Before her inner thoughts could get too extreme Claude got to his point.
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"So this is about the Captain..." Mostly. She repeated to herself, a bit relieved. "Yeah, his attitude doesn't ever really help us, but I didn't know about another incident. What'd I miss?"
When she was forced to think about Lysander she couldn't help but remember the embrace. As far as she was concerned, things were still awkward between them; they hadn't really talked since, but if he needed her, well, she'd just have to deal with it.
(https://i.imgur.com/Ig2SCCt.png)""A-Ah, you think so...? Well, if he needs help with anything, I'll be there for him; it's what friends are for... ya know?"
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"Ya think you're making progress with the Captain? Or is he still as bloodthirsty as ever?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "He's come up with the idea to have Gawen take care of diplomacy and pretend to be the ship's owner on his own, and that was an improvement. He also hasn't tossed the noble lady overboard yet either, so that's another point in his favor."
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "And I do think you two get along well. Lysander has had bad experiences with pirates, and I can sympathize since they're the reason I left the pen behind. I'd say he's only been with Ethan because the Captain rescued him, but acting like a pirate damages that relationship something fierce. You're pretty far away from a pirate, so you're a good option to console him. I'm always wrapped up in something, and our experiences were different after all."
-
Did Ashlyn stutter?
Lavinia supposed anyone would feel complimented to be told they were being counted on for something like that, though. She would have to catch up to Lysander sometime herself, have a chat, maybe. Probably not about Ethan, even. She wasn't much for chats, but it just seemed like a long time since they had actually interacted other than him peeling her off the ground.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "...How've you been holding up, anyhow?" She was pretty bad at small talk. "Feels busier around here, and the new hands are pretty much crew at this point. But it also feels like forever since we took on a ship with the five of us."
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "With this whole thing going on, we ought to still take a little time to ourselves sometime."
Like now, come to think of it.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Yeah, it has really been a while. We could chat a bit like old times."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"Well, I suppose that is something then. If there wasn't any progress he'd probably insist on remaining captain, even though that'd cause a whole slew of problems."
Ashlyn crossed her arms and looked down at the floor, her mood seemed to drop a bit.
(https://i.imgur.com/TbzWQVn.png)"Yeah, I know he's got a bad past with pirates; learned that the hard way. He's still not ready to face them yet either, but maybe we'll get there someday."
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"For Lys' sake, I hope that you can calm down the Captain more than you have already, Claude. Maybe he'll be able to relax a bit more."
That heavy topic out of the way, Ashlyn unfolder her arms and took a much more casual stance.
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"Eh, I'm doing alright, I think. It's nice having more hands to help out, but I kinda miss when it was just the five of us. Things were less complicated when we were just raiding ships."
(https://i.imgur.com/g6Ul2ug.png)"Yeah, I've missed talking with ya both, feels like we haven't had much time to just sit and talk since we found the orb, always running from one place to the next. We should fix that, somehow."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Saving the world won't take forever. When this is all over, we can go drinking. Or raid a ship. Ethan, Lysander, us. It'll be just like old times."
Sometimes she wondered how long it'd last. Sometimes she wondered when she'd move on, just like she'd told Claude in that bar in Port Omega. But right now she was happy to stay in the moment.
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "Until then, we can just take time like this... while hoping they don't run the ship aground."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Come on, the new crew learned enough, at least. We left the rigging ready so we probably won't run aground." Claude joked.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "And while we can still chat and have fun like this, I do wonder if we'll be able to return to business as usual after all of this is done."
-
As they approached Demura's port, ships became a common sight, most of those flying a Domirian flag, some a Zeekonriak one, and some flagless, but certainly none with Alvada's flag. The upper deck crew docked near an available pier well enough, but the Blackbones still garnered some attention.
A couple of guards approached the ship and scanned it and the crew, until one of them spoke up.
I haven't seen this ship around here before, I don't think. What's your business in Demura?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Matters of scholarship." She nodded in the direction of the robed individuals on deck. "I'll leave it to them to explain the details, if you need."
-
The speaking guard groaned.
Eh, I don't want to ask mages about stuff. Last time I spent more than an hour listening to nonsense.
The other guard continued in a stern tone.
Ya see, we are supposed to ask why are you not flying a flag, since it's usually either pirates or Alvadans. You don't look like pirates, so all I'm gonna say is keep your head down and don't cause any trouble.
-
Gawen inclined her head slightly, nodding at the guard.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"I thank you for the advice. You should have little to worry about from us."
-
However, before leaving, the guard asked one more question.
You're the captain of this ship, right? What's your name, and hers? Just in case.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Gawen Cawallader, and she is called the Blackbones." She grimaced slightly as she spoke the name.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"It's a long story."
-
(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"I'm Angelica. And for the record, I still think the name I suggested was better back then," Angelica replies, pouting a little towards Gawen.
-
The guard raised an eyebrow at the name, but the other one tapped him in the arm and made motions that he wanted to get away. He nodded at Gawen and carried on patrolling around.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/lKndQnl.png)"That taken care of..." Marlow says as the guards leave, "We have things to do. Fer, Vortai, Amberly, let's go."
-
Amberly just nods, taking a place behind Marlow.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/TQe9EKm.png) "Of course."
-
In the end the other two didn't seem too interested in having a more serious chat, and there was far too much tension before, during and after the soldiers boarded the Blackbones to inquire what was up with the suspicious lack of identification. In the end all was well, and the quartermaster could stop squatting on a corner like it'd do them any good in case the guards decided to go for a serch.
Claude stretched his arms in relief when they safely docked, and looked at the people hidden away with him.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "We'll have a lot of time to kill downstairs, so what do you suggest we do?" he asked as he stuck his hand into one of the crates he had adopted as his children of sorts and retrieved an orange.
-
Lysander was curled up a bit, knees tucked against his chest.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"We could play a card game maybe? Or get some sparring in if you all wanted that. Quietly of course..."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "Cards sound good," Lavinia said as she sat cross-legged on the floor. "I was going to suggest dice."
After a moment, she got up to go find a deck of cards, returning shortly afterwards.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Which game were you all thinking of?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/lKndQnl.png)"I'm going to do some poking around while we're here, if you guys don't mind. I figure the shopkeeps with the more expensive stuff or the museum guys are going to take a look at me and hide their stuff, you know? So I figure it's probably best for me to poke around a bit, maybe see about replenishing our food and water stocks."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/TQe9EKm.png) "That is completely fine. We probably should look for weapons while we are here, as this last encounter we had was more than enough to wear off the crew's weapons."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Hmmm... let's look for magic first. I think it's rather less suspicious for a bunch of mages to be looking for magic than for steel."
-
Gawen stared off, watching the party leave. She was quiet, for the moment, but after some time of not doing much other than watching passer-by as she stayed on-deck, Angelica noticed something forming. Something quite dangerous.
Gawen was starting to look bored.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "We could go for a simple game, like twenty-one, but I'm open to suggestions."
-
Ashlyn joined the assembled trio, folding her arms across her chest and trying not to look at Lysander too closely.
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"Count me in too. Don't really care what we play so long as it's not boring."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "That's the problem we're trying to solve. Here - we'll give it a try."
Lavinia shuffled the deck, tapping it neatly, then began to deal the cards...
9 of Diamonds
Ace of Diamonds
King of Hearts
7 of Clubs
5 of Diamonds
10 of Diamonds
6 of Clubs
Facedown Card
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "So, what'll it be?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "Stand."
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "I'm lucky the dwindling stores means I have to spend less time taking up inventory. It's been a while since we've had some privateer get-together time."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"Uh... Hit."
(https://i.imgur.com/g6Ul2ug.png)"We're stuck down here for a while. Might as well make the most of it yeah?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Err... hit I guess? "
-
Lavinia shook her head at Claude.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "You're just lucky you got dealt twenty off the bat."
King of Hearts
7 of Clubs
5 of Spades
5 of Diamonds
10 of Diamonds
9 of Spades
After dealing to both Ashlyn and Lysander (and causing them both to bust), she shook her head some more and flipped over her own facedown card. Then she dealt herself one last card.
6 of Clubs
Queen of Clubs
3 of Diamonds
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Nineteen... Claude won against me, but I got both of you." Lavinia shrugged lightly, handing off the deck of cards to Claude. He could hand it off himself if he didn't want it, she figured. "Your turn to deal."
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "And speaking of making the most of it - you two are still sparring like you did at the House of Scholars, or is it something different now?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Too bad then, Lavinia." Claude had a cheeky smile on as he replied, taking the deck and swiftly shuffling it. He'd learned to do that much while playing with his brother and parents. In the end he had never learned any fancy shuffling tricks, as opposed to his brother. He then slipped a pair of cards to all of them and kept two.

(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Yeah, I'm also interested in that. How are you guys doing?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"Stand."
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"A little here and there, I suppose, but nothing like that match. What about you two, do you spar at all, or is it just competitions still? Also, who's in the lead after that last fight?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "We've got time. You two could probably have a go after we get tired of this."
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "And I think it's Claude," Lavinia said, a bit begrudgingly. "Need to work on my speed, hitting them faster. Sometimes it's reaching the enemy that's the problem too. But I aim to catch up."
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Hit."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "We don't spar. Fighting side by side works well enough." Talking about sparring reminded him of the arm wrestling competition and that made him change gears. "Do you think it is me? I'm on a winning streak right now, aren't I?"
Claude said with an even cheekier smile than before, glancing at Lysander to wait for his decision while dealing Lavinia a ten of spades.
-
Look for a magik magik store with the group.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Hit. And yeah, some stuff here and there. Not a lot though..."
-
Ethan left his brooding corner of no-captaincy and walked up to the group playing cards. Was he going to join?
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Where's Gawen? I need to speak with her." Nope, he wasn't.
-
Angelica knew all too well how Gawen got when she was bored, so when she saw her current state, she attempted to intervene.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281656330223617/Basedtroub-3.png) "Now now Gawen. I know there isn't much to do just waiting on the ship, but we have to do the job properly." she explains, before adding in one detail that might keep Gawen in check.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png) "And besides, if you handle this whole job perfectly, 'he' will have no choice but to thank you. Though I doubt he'll actually get the words out, but the thought of it must be something right?
-
The three magic slinging members of the crew took a tour around the scholarly district of Demura. While libraries of various topics (inluding history of Alvadan/Domirian relationships) and clubs and covens of different schools of magic were abundant, there was only one bookstore open. Even then, it's selection wasn't that interesting, though Melchior had a massive stock of those books, probably the reason why he could stay in business in such a magic busy city.
As they continue their travels, they passed the Museum of Demura, currently showing an exhibit on the mythos surrounding Undine. And across the street they found a very reputable staff store, that had some interesting and ornate staves on display. Nearby there was one small pharmacy that stood over the rest for its selection of rare items that the apothecary's partner had on sale.
By now Marlow had found the group again, having returned from his scouting trip.

Gawen made an offended noise.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"I wasn't doing anything but looking off into the city! You wound me, Angelica." Her tone was a cooler, more refined version of what you might expect of a child caught reaching into the candy jar without permission.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Besides, I don't care for that brute Valle's approval. His crew, perhaps, but I'll be happy to leave him behind me once this quest is all said and done."
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png) "Sure you were Gawen. It always starts with that, but where it ends is anyone's guess if unchecked," Angelica replies.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png) "At any rate, what shall we do once this quest is done? More travelling perhaps?
-
Gawen sighed, expression going slightly more somber.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"I've thought about it. These journeys have been a wonderful experience, and I'm loath to stop, but I do have a responsibility to return eventually." She smiled slightly again.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Though perhaps winning some glory for the House will assuage Father's eventual ire."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"Should still be up on deck if she's doing her job, Captain."
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png) "That would be good for you, though I get the feeling he'll still be upset." Angelica remarks while chuckling.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png) "As for me, I'd like to progress in my own magic a bit, but I haven't decided exactly what I'll do after that. Of course, I'll still be your retainer for a while longer. Someone needs to keep an eye on you" Angelica says with a light grin.
-
Ethan went halfways-upstairs so that his head poked out of the floor. He turned around till his eyes found the knight on board.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Gawen. We need to talk."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"I hope he won't be too upset. He'll have a heart attack and stick me with the duty of the family head prematurely, and then we'll all be sorry." She frowned slightly at part of Angelica's reply.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Surely you can advance your studies-" She would have continued, but a certain captain made his presence known. "Ah, we can finish that discussion later."Gawen walked toward Ethan, gazing down at him from her position on the deck.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"About?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Something I forgot to ask you about earlier. Come downstairs... this is not a conversation for others."
-
Gawen glanced between Ethan and Angelica dubiously.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"I see." A flash of paranoia rose up again, but she forced it back down - Valle might be brutish, but trying to pull something now of all times would be startlingly unwise.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Very well." Gesturing, she waited for Ethan to descend before following.
-
Claude slipped Lysander a card; a five of Diamonds.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Lysander, it looks like the diamonds keep following you wherever you go."
10 of Hearts
Facedown card
King of Clubs

(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Who's risking it?" Lysander got close but Ashlyn was so far the apparent victor, the dealer's hand aside.
-
Ethan led her downstairs, and then past the card players, and then to the very end of the ship, behind some crates and away from any accidental (or not) eavesdroppers.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Right. Does your family... have a large manor? Or any estate of the kind?"
-
Gawen frowned. Where was this going?
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Yes? We aren't the largest or wealthiest family in Alvada - for now, anyway - but we've a fair amount of holdings."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Mhm. I see." Ethan rubbed his chin, thinking about what he was going to say.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Then I would have a favor to ask of you... after this adventure ends, I mean."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"A favor? I'll consider it, I suppose. Depending on what it is." And whether I deem you worthy of it. Truthfully, she wasn't particularly interested in doing anything for the man. . . but she figured she could be the bigger person.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "You will take Lysander with you, and get him a nice job as a, I don't know... a cook, a butler, or some sort." Ethan crossed his arms.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Don't get me wrong, I like the kid, he is a smart one and ain't shy of combat either... but I've recently noticed that something's not right with him during or after there's a fight. Or maybe its my shouting, possibly both. I was considering options and how to work it out, but... it's clear to me that his mind ain't cut for this style of life, and it will be better for him to live a calm life with a nice job in a big house." The captain rubbed his nose with his thumb.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Pretty sure you can do that with little to no effort on your part."
-
Gawen raised an eyebrow. She wasn't sure what she'd expected, but it certainly wasn't that.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"That's rather more charitable than I expected." She nodded. "Yes, I think I could do something like that. He's clearly shown his value already, though of course that relies on him wanting to do so at all. I fear your crew has rather dim opinions of me."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Hey, because I'm clashing with you, and naturally they follow the leader. Though if I had to say something, yer not half-bad." Ethan then grimaced and smacked his lips as if he has swallowed something vile.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Bleh, that left a terrible aftertaste in my mouth, and its entirely your fault."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"It cannot be worse than the odor you naturally exude." Gawen tried to keep her face straight, but couldn't help a smile cracking the facade. "But yes, if he's willing, there is likely a place for Lysander at my estate."
-
Ethan grumbled.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Still better than that fish perfume you are using!"
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Now get back on the deck and resume playing captain. I'm done talking." Right afterwards, Ethan took few towels and piled then on floor a la pillow. Apparently, he was going to take a nap.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"We just need to beat the dealer, right? I'll hold."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "I can't blame you for playing safe if you're satisfied with ending up below Ashlyn. I am, however-" he turned his head towards Lavinia.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "-expecting you to be daring." he added.
-
Gawen rolled her eyes. Well, perhaps Ethan wasn't all bad. She elected not to reply to the fish comment, and simply turned to head back upstairs.
-
Ethan looked as she left, his eyes for few short seconds were gazing lower than he himself would expect, too.
Another grumble later, the captain laid down, turning his back towards the middle of the ship.
-
Amberly examined one of the Mend staffs on sale.
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "This one, perhaps. Do you think Miss Angelica would be happy with this?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Probably, yes. She seemed, er, quite excited when she asked about getting some healing magic.
Fer paused.
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Erm, if it wouldn't be out of your way, I would like to go back and talk with the shopkeeper of that bookstore. It's quite curious that his is the only one in this district, especially with so many mages here. I wonder why."
-
Lavinia had been a little distracted. The combination of Ethan and Gawen had never spelled anything other than trouble before. That said, she was the first mate, but that didn't mean she had to poke her nose into the captain's business.
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "You're just hoping I bust."
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Hit again."
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "No, I don't mind at all. We should probably plan out what we'll be buying so we do not find ourselves short on funds."
The nun placed the Mend staff back on its rack.
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "Lead the way!"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "You wound me with your accurate suspicion." Claude quipped as he dealt Lavinia a four of clubs.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "Might as well give you a good chance at it, then. Hit."
-
Angelica was mildly concerned about Ethan calling for Gawen out of the blue, but could only stay and keep watch over the ship. As such, seeing her come back without appearing to have gotten into a fight was a wonderful thing for her.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png) "You're back. What did he call you for?"
-
Claude dealt her another card. Nine of clubs.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "And that's a bust. In your honor I'll also take a risk." he commented as he dealt himself another card, a five of spades. Then, using his newly-dealt card, he flipped his facedown one. A three of hearts.

(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "And Ashlyn takes this round, everyone else loses. Thanks for giving me inspiration, Lavinia." Claude joked, though just as it looked like he was about to cross eyes with her his gaze moved right onwards, relentlessly avoiding hers.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Who wants to deal? Also, did anyone catch wind of whatever talk it was that Gawen and Ethan had? I suppose it wasn't so bad since we didn't hear any noise and she looked uninjured."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Captain Valle had a favor to ask me. I also believe he may have gone cabin-crazy in the short time he's been confined there."
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281656330223617/Basedtroub-3.png) "He asked for...a favor? Well then, maybe he has," Angelica mutters, shocked to hear that he asked Gawen of all people for a favor. She was glad it wasn't something that caused a problem, but this was unexpected.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png) "What was this favor anyhow. Did it have something to do with the ship?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"It was startlingly charitable, actually. It had to do with Lysander's future. The real oddity, though, was that he actually said something positive about me. I wonder if I might have been hasty in my judgement. . .or if he's simply decided that flattery will get him further than fighting."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/XcjiAZV.png) "Very well then. And she is right, we should make a list involving both the supplies we intend to buy and the total amount of gold we end up spending."
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281656330223617/Basedtroub-3.png) "About Lysander you say?" Angelica asked again, shocked. She had a few questions about what the details of that entailed, but she held off on that.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png) "Perhaps he genuinely cares about hsi crew and their well being. While I won't say he's a perfectly good guy, he is at least willing to think about the future a bit," Angelica remarks, amused that he too was thinking about the future. At that point, Angelica decided to poke more into this arrangement.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png) "So...did he entrust Lysander's future to you or something?"
-
Marlow, having found the group, slides into the shop and meets up with them. "So, I've managed to get those supplies heading to the ship. The shopping can focus on gear." he said. "Found something else while I was poking around, but that'll need to wait for us to be back to the ship."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/jcHy8fR.png)"Something about that. He inquired as to whether I could find employment for him at the estate."
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)"It shouldn't be too difficult. We can easily afford another healer on staff."
(https://i.imgur.com/eyBOf1y.png)"Especially if you're planning on departing after this journey."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Ah, well, ah, I probably shouldn't be deciding your group's expenditures seeing as I've just tagged along. But... hmm... let me see what tomes you have?"
After seeing them, Fer thought for a bit.
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Um, hum, my suggestion is that we should probably listen to Angelica and get her a Mend staff, and also get one for uh, for, uh, the other healer too. Seems like a good idea that we make sure they're supplied well? As for us, I think we're mostly fine. The Fire tome I was supplied with is nearly gone, and while I'd certainly like Blaze, I don't really think it's necessary when I have Singe and Elfire.
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"I think Amberly is looking fine..."
A pause.
(http://i61.tinypic.com/2ed9gfc.png):"UH, um, uh, in-- in terms of the tomes, since she has three of them like I do, and one of the ones she has looks more advanced and ANYWAY,"
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"I think we should buy Vortai something since that Swarm tome is nearly gone and he'll just have the one weapon otherwise. Nosferatu's pretty expensive but is a good spell, Sin seems to have good value for the level of intricacy in its writing, Hustle is also an option, or replacing the Swarm. What do you think, Vortai?"
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"I don't really have any suggestions otherwise since I don't know who needs what."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/lKndQnl.png)"Should probably see what else is around before we dump all our money on magic."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"U-um, well, yeah, that's one reason I think we should only get the one tome, but I really do think the Mend staves are a good idea."
-
While Fer discovered how to walk while putting both feet in his mouth, the Demura explorers found an armory. But it wasn't just any old armory, it was a massive armory, spanning almost a whole block. Inside, they could find most any kind of physical weapon, save bows and crossbows, of both iron and high quality steel, even though the latter were in such high demand apparently that they were running out of stock.

Meanwhile, Gawen and Angelica spotted a man pulling a wagon with a few crates towards the Blackbones.
'Scuse me, is this the ship of Miss Cawaladder? I got a delivery for her.
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png) "Hold on now, I already said I wasn't departing. And besides...perhaps circumstances may make me staying even more profitable," Angelica remarked before a man pulled by with a delivery.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281656330223617/Basedtroub-3.png) "A delivery? Who's the sender?" Angelica asks, not recalling anyone ordering anything.
-
Fella named M. Arlow. Paid for it in advance, they're supplies for ship travel.
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png) "Oh, I see," Angelica remarks as she hears the name of the sender. Still, a bit of caution never hurt anyone.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png) "You wouldn't mind if I looked through the crates first to check the supplies would you?"
-
'Course not, as long as this is the ship of Miss Cawaladder.
-
Gawen was initially suspicious, but relaxed on hearing the name.
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)"That was remarkably quick." She nodded at Angelica. "It's good to see if they're all in order."
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)"Miss Cawallader would be me."
-
Awright, then it's not my problem anymore.
With a swift move the man freed the crates from the wagon and left with it.
As they checked the crates, one of them had a note from Marlow: "Don't ask how I got the money."
-
Gawen kept her face impassive as she read the note. With Marlow being one of the few crew members not seemingly hostile toward her, it was easy to forget why he'd been brought on board.
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)"Well, we'd best drag these on board as soon as we can. With our luck, trouble will find us sooner rather than later."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/W0awDs1.png) "Your exaggerated eagerness to buy tomes is unexpected!
(https://i.imgur.com/XcjiAZV.png) "And Marlow is right, we need to be careful with the amount of gold we will spend in magical weapons and tools. But if we do end up having enough gold for Hustle, then that is the one I will choose. "
-
Fortunately for Fer, Amberly completely missed his near faux-pas. She was busy examining her tomes.
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "Hm, well, one of them is on its way out, but the others are indeed in fine condition. More gold for everyone else, I suppose!"
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)"Yes. Let's move these, and worry about the details later," Angelica replies, a bit pale in the face and hoping that whatever Marlow did doesn't come back to bite them later.
-
As the card game started to die down, Claude heard the sound of heavy steps that made him step up warily only to see the crates being moved downstairs. A smile appeared on his face, as if an integral part of his being was being pleased. And it was.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Work calls. So I'll have to skip out. Next time we should bet with oranges... Lavinia, could you help me with the crates?" he asked as he began receiving the supplies from the actresses upstairs and carrying them to the store, trusty clipboard in hand.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Are these from Marlow? Any proper labeling?" he asked Angelica and Gawen.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)"Just a label warning not to ask where it came from." She tried, and mostly succeeded, in keeping the distaste out of her tone.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "Oh."
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Hopefully that is nothing but a joke, but just in case I'll check the wares for any identifying marks or similar trouble-causing signs." he replied as he checked one of the crates.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "So how was the talk with our Captain? Fine enough, I have to speculate, since neither of you seem to have been killed or wounded."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/7XjVeQK.png)"Surprisingly well. I left the conversation with significantly less desire to throttle him, and I have the feeling that he had a similar experience."
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)"Though I'll not pretend to be an excellent reader of people by any means."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "It's good to hear that. Less impulse to throttle from both parties is a major improvement during negotiations." he commented at the same time as he started to make annotations on his clipboard without looking at it.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "How about the matter with the guards? Did they get suspicious enough to post a lookout or is it fine?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/jcHy8fR.png)"Threatening them with two long-winded stories in a row was enough to send them packing. Fear the wandering rants of a wandering noblewoman and her scholarly friends."
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)"Somewhat more seriously, they gathered that this was an Alvadan vessel, but beyond that they did not seem to suspect anything of us. Not that there's much to, really; we can honestly say that we're here on an archaeological mission."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Truth or not, sometimes the stupidest and smallest things can catch a nosy official's attention... Gods, I hope Marlow has packed some extra water because I need a bath. I've spent too much of my life landside and even getting used to the smell doesn't mean it isn't there."
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "In any case..." He rolled up a cask of fresh water and its partner cask of wine.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Good job, hopefully everything will go well."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Oh, this kind of work." Lavinia groaned somewhat goodnaturedly, then shot a glance at Ashlyn and Lysander. "Save me a seat if you start sparring anytime soon."
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "And this one's... hmm, hardtack," she said, picking up a crate while Claude and Gawen talked. "Where do you want it?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rZ6iW4V.png) "See you later." Claude told Gawen before turning to Lavinia and starting to carry one of the crates as well. The casks would be easy enough to roll later.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Come with me, I'll show you the corner those go on."
When they arrived at the storeroom, Claude resumed speaking.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "It's quite the surprise to hear those two are developing a better relationship."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Hum, well, that’s all my useful output on the matter of gear. We could look for you know what, or if you all don’t think we’re in a hurry I could go talk to the proprietor of the bookstore... just because I’m curious. Just one bookstore! That’s quite odd."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "That's what you were hoping for, wasn't it?"
Lavinia put down the crate near some almost empty crates that seemed like they had also once been full of hardtack.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Anyway, are you counting these up now or after all of them are moved?"
-
The nun hesitated a moment.
"If it will not take too long, I suppose you can speak to the store owner. We shouldn't make those back at the ship wait longer than necessary though."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "Afterwards."
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Yes, I was hoping for it. I just wasn't sure it was going to happen any time soon. At least that's a reason for commemoration."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "Commemoration? You want to break out the wine and fancy cups already?"
Lavinia rolled her shoulders, and headed back to the rest of the crates.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "You know... not that I want this downtime to end, but I'm itching to find out what we're facing this time. Hope it's not something so easy they'll just come back with it."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Heh, spoiling for a fight already, are we?" Claude asked as he picked up another crate. "What is if it's a number-based puzzle?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Intelligence was the last one. I don't think we're getting one on accounting."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "But then I'd have my time to shine. Why don't legendary dungeons contain problems such as 'take inventory of this room's contents'? It'd make for a difficult challenge." he asked jokingly.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "Probably would be a good way to keep anyone from ever getting their hands on the treasure. Except you, as a fluke."
She sobered up a bit.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Wonder what'll happen when we reunite them all, anyway..." Then Lavinia just shrugged lightly. "Something for Lysander or the mages, huh?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "Good point."
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Maybe a light will stretch up into the skies and we'll hear the voice of the gods." he jokingly suggested.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/XcjiAZV.png) "If we are done here, then we should meet up with the rest of the crew."
-
Fer made his way back to the bookstore and approached the storeowner.
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"When looking around for places selling tomes, I noticed that this is the only store in the district that appears to do so. Out of interest in the scholarly community, why is that? I would have thought that a scholarly center like Demura would be packed with them."
-
Melchior tussled his long white beard with delight at the question.
Yes, indeed! But most bookstores have a very important problem when operating in such a busy city, and that's stock! While libraries may hold rare books, they do not give them away for if they did, they would not remain libraries for long. And that's where I stand over the rest! I never run out of stock, no matter how many people buy my tomes, there's always more ready. That's why I am called the Scribe! But my methods are a business secret.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Ahh, that would make sense. I work for a rather large library myself (though, for the possibility of having rivals here perhaps it’s best I not spread around which one, ha ha), though I never focused on the business side of the scholarly community since my library doesn’t give any times away at all. I think there’s a contractor ring in Duo Alvada that makes some of the lower level tomes and controls most of the supply in that city, but I’ve always had a level of separation from them. It’s fascinating — one can spend all their life a scholar and still find new things about how the scholarly community works."
-
That's the beauty of scholarly life. Unfortunately politics are always getting in the way, we hadn't heard much from Alvadan scholars in a while. At least Xos is always available for meetings if needed.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Oh, trust me, I’ve had enough of politics invading scholarship for a lifetime, and I doubt I’m going to escape that anytime soon. Speaking of Alvadan scholars, though — we’ll likely come back to buy a tome once the financial situation is hashed out with the people I’m traveling with, but in the meantime I was considering going to that Alvadan museum and talking to the archaeologists there. Do you know what the state of that museum is? I haven’t been to Demura in some time."
-
Melchior once again tussled his beard in slight dismay.
Oh! I'm afraid you're out of luck in that department. The museum is closed today, as per the second Undine holiday. But I didn't expect you to know that, being from Alvada.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Hmmmm. How long is the holiday that the museum is closed for? I’m afraid that I don’t actually know much about religious matters in general, unlike some of my compatriots."
-
It's just today, so if you're staying here for longer you'll have a chance to visit it as soon as tomorrow.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Hmmm... well, I think I ought to take my leave for now. But thank you for all the help and fascinating information!"
Fer left the store and turned to Amberly, Vortai, and Marlow.
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Well. Is there anything the rest of you would like to do?"
-
"Nothing in particular. Think we should head back?"
-
"Nothing for me, thank you. I'm sure the others are waiting to hear hear from us."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/XcjiAZV.png) "Yes, we probably should head back for now."
-
Gawen, after some time, spotted the group of
nerds scholars on their way back to the ship. She gave them a single wave before calling out.
(https://i.imgur.com/7XjVeQK.png)"You're back! Find anything interesting while you were away?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Well, we found enough stores that we should be able to pretty much fully stock up. A store for staves, only a single store for tomes actually, a store for other supplies, and a very large armory. I wanted to go to one museum that I suspected to be a potential area the third artifact might be in, but it is closed."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/lKndQnl.png)"I actually have something on that topic. Should probably be discussed below decks though. The supplies got through alright?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)"Yes. Though I hope for the entire crew's sake that you didn't do anything too. . . creative, to obtain them."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/lKndQnl.png)"Hey, I didn't live this long by being stupid. If our captain," he said this in a way that an outside observer would think he meant Gawen, "Thought I'd screwed us over, I'd be in the drink before I could say 'whoops'." he said, then inclined his head towards the way below decks. "Anyways, we have better things to talk about, don't we?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)"Certainly." She gestured for him to go ahead, waiting for him to move, then followed once he did so.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/XcjiAZV.png) "We probably should be fast with this, just in case they decide to check on us twice."
-
Claude and Lavinia were basically done with the heavy-lifting when he heard the commotion and headed towards the stairs connecting the decks, an orange in one hand and a clipboard on the other.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Welcome back. Back with good news, I have to hope."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/XcjiAZV.png) "We did find weapons and supplies, so this might be a good time to work on a list. I do believe Marlow also has some information to share."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/lKndQnl.png)"Right. So, I was poking around the museum that Fer mentioned. It was closed, but I found a couple of people nearby, looked like staff, who had been hitting the bottle too hard too early. They just couldn't help but boast about how they got a 'great and important Alvadan treasure', with how they were so proud of it. I think we found our artifact."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "That sounds worth looking into. Fermintxo, is there any chance you're familiar with what they were boasting about?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"I'm afraid that I don't have any confirmation to provide, I haven't been to Demura for a couple of years now. It does seem like a good candidate to be the third of the artifacts we're seeking, however. That had been my first thought upon arriving as well, that said museum would be the place in Demura to find it.
...oh, I feel kind of bad about the idea of stealing from fellow archaeologists, though. I wonder if we could instead talk it out. ...knowing some archaeologists, maybe not, but you never know, maybe they'll see the scholastic value in us having all three artifacts to compare."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/TstMAgV.png) "...Fer, I somewhat doubt they intend to share an object they refer as 'treasure' to complete strangers."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "It is better the other artifacts are not even mentioned. As you mentioned it yourself, they might 'see the value in having all three artifacts to compare'."
-
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"I suspect that at that point we'd be fighting them whether or not they heard about the artifacts. It's a shame, though."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WrKKoxs.png) "Unfortunately treasure and fortune do speak louder than knowledge."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/lKndQnl.png)"Well, I was assuming we probably wouldn't be getting it the nice way. Even closed, there's still a bunch of guards. Two ways of going about this; a few of us break in and take it while the others wait outside just in case, or we say 'screw subtlety' and all go in. Could try going in myself, but I don't like my odds if I get caught in that case."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WrKKoxs.png) "I suppose going all in will make this job faster. Leaving some people outside might make our actions only look more fishy, especially depending of how much time we take inside."
-
Claude honestly wasn't too happy with the prospect of breaking and entering into a museum to get what they wanted. Hostile nation or not, it felt plain wrong.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Before we try to break and enter, how about we get a list of available gear so we can get our purchases done?" he suggested, before adding: "And while we can all head in, I'm still of the opinion that we should try to be at least somewhat discreet about this, going during the night in different groups and trying not to call down the entirety of the guard plus angry mobs upon us."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)"I would rather not cause some sort of diplomatic incident while we are here. You're certain there's no other way to do this?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/lKndQnl.png)"Pretty much, yeah. It's unfortunate, but you don't think they'll just hand it over, do you? So someone needs to get in there and steal it. If we're good enough, or just lucky, we don't get caught."
-
The captain groggily walked up to the party.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Summwhut? Found anything?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Marlow might have found the artifact we are looking for. I'd like to make sure that's the one, maybe with some assistance from our scholars, before we make a move." he explained to Ethan, gesturing towards Fer, Vortai and Amberly.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "As for how to do it, I suggest we do it during the night and have Marlow infiltrate either alone or with someone in tow while we try to draw as little attention as possible outside and stand guard in case things go awry, which they surely will."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Whatever there is, we can handle it."
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "Let's just get the shopping done and get on with it already."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WrKKoxs.png) "Yes, we probably should get those supplies as soon as possible."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Hrrrm, yes... checking it out with the scholars shouldn't be much of a hassle. Then, Marlow steals it at night. I approve of this plan."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Time to check what's available and what we need."
Claude flipped a page on his clipboard and started going around checking with the nerds what was available in town and with everyone what they wanted (budget permitting, of course).
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHzm2TXy/amberly-veilce.png): "I don't think I like this idea. Diplomatic incidents aside, we might have to injure many who have done nothing wrong in order to steal the artifact by force. Plus we might cause a great deal of damage to other displays in the fighting."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"I know what you're saying, Amberly, but I don't think we have a choice... The only other option to get the item would be to move in full force and that will get more people killed. If we're lucky, Marlow will be in and out before they notice. There's no way they'll give up a treasure to strangers like us, and if we want to do this, well... But supplies come first. I could use a new heal staff probably... Besides that I should be good."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WrKKoxs.png) "Unfortunately I don't see any other options aside from those mentioned. None of us are capable of performing a teleport spell to get in, take what we need and leave without being caught."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "Lysander is correct. In all honesty I'm not interested in fighting anyone either, and I'm hoping beyond hope the Domirians take care of their own business and Marlow is able to pilfer the artifact without trouble."
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "I have a finished list of purchases. We need them delivered before we make our move. Fermintxo, you and the other scholars should take the opportunity to at least try and make sure it is the artifact we seek. It'd be a disaster if we steal the wrong thing." Claude added in a distressed voice, picking up a sheet and giving it to Marlow.
Heal for Angelica (500 Gold)
Mend for Angelica (750 Gold)
Heal for Lysander (500 Gold)
Hustle for Vortai (650 Gold)
Steel Lance for Gawen (670 Gold)
Iron Lance for Gawen (440 Gold)
Steel Axe for Ashlyn (720 Gold)
Steel Sword for Maria (610 Gold)
Iron Javelin for Maria (640 Gold)
Armorslayer for Claude (900 Gold)
Total Gold Spent: 6380/6380
-
(https://i.imgur.com/eyBOf1y.png)"I do not like this at all. Particularly when I've already given word that I'll not cause trouble. This is more important than that, though, and I, for one, would rather not be known as the one who refused to do what needed to be done in order to avoid some discomfort."
-
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):""Mhhhhh. I would dearly wish to, but I don't know how I would actually be able to determine such with the museum closed as it is today. Are we sure we have to do this through fighting, and tonight?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "I'm hoping Marlow gets it done before it devolves into fighting. Do you have other ideas? While I've considered it, I doubt the museum would lend the piece to a group of wandering scholars, doubly so because they're Alvadan, no matter how reputable they seem to be." He paused.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "I was once totally beholden to diplomacy, but it has its limits; lines in the sand that can only be redrawn by a sword's rather than a feather's tip. We didn't ask to get involved in a quest of this magnitude, but we will not tarry and endanger more than just our lives."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WrKKoxs.png) "I suppose there's one thing we could try, at least to decrease the number of people in the streets or nearby the museum guarding it."
(https://i.imgur.com/WrKKoxs.png) "One of us could attempt to draw their attention performing something absurd, perhaps force the museum open and then proceed to flee to imply they are running away with something valuable. That could perhaps work to at least draw their attention from our actual prize, but of course we would need someone agile enough to pull that off without being caught."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "It's a possibility, though it's too risky for a single person since we're already having our quickest member committed to thievery, and a mob could stop them in their tracks. There's also the possibility the stunt will draw popular attention to the museum and its vicinity, and they might call more guards to reinforce security."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WrKKoxs.png) "It is in fact a gamble, yes. But I thought it was worth raising as an option, as it seems some of us are concerned about harming people to get what we are looking for."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "I know, it's worth putting forth ideas. I'm not comfortable with the situation either."
-
After a period of silence, Fer eventually spoke.
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"If one of us is going to come with Marlow, I would like to volunteer for the task, both because I think I have a fair chance of finding and identifying the artifact in there, and because I want to attempt to minimize damaging anything else extracting it. Uh... even if I have a fire tome... because I'm going to try very hard to avoid using it in the first place."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "If Marlow agrees then it's decided."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/lKndQnl.png)"I'm fine with it. I'll probably need the help identifying it, although I figure it's a safe bet it's going to be whatever has the most protection."
-
The scholars and Marlow went out again, and after spending all the gold they had available, returned with a pile of stuff that was distributed amongst the party.
Party gets stuff!
Party loses 6380 gold!
The sun was starting to set so it would be soon time to begin the heist, but Lysander and Maria were a bit too burdened to set out properly.
-
Fer will leave Singe on the ship!
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "How about it? You guys ready? For that matter - everyone ready? We should be going on with this. Hesistation will get us nowhere."
-
Claude went around working out inventory distribution to make sure everyone would be ready to go. He also had his new armor-cleaving sword on a brand-new scabbard on the opposite side of his even equally-heavy steel blade.
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "We're done here."
-
Dropping off all but what he needed, Marlow nodded to Fer.
(https://i.imgur.com/lKndQnl.png)"All set to go? I get you don't like that we're doing this, but we've gotta do what we've gotta do."
-
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"...yes, I'm ready. I wouldn't like to dwell on it, but I'm prepared."
-
And so, once the sun fully set down, the group set off to steal a Royal Treasure back.
Marlow and Fer advanced first, with the rest following from a distance until the thief and the mage were at the museum's doors. There were no guards outside, but the doors were closed and a peek revealed a couple of guards patrolling the entrance hall.
-
Marlow was unsurprised that the entrance hall had been guarded. Of course it was. It was a lucky break that there were none outside though. And he had prepared for the chance.
(https://i.imgur.com/lKndQnl.png)"Front door's guarded. Then we won't go in the front. I cased the place earlier - there's an unlocked window, and it didn't look like a place they guarded." Marlow said to his partner in (perfectly justified) crime, before heading in that direction.
-
Fer sighed -- he still truly wasn't happy about this. But one thing Marlow said did bring a different pause to Fer:
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"Oh, ah, uh, a window?" Fer glanced down at his many robes. "You... may need to help me with that."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/lKndQnl.png)"Won't be a problem. I'll go through first and help you through if everything's fine."
-
And so Marlow went around the building to where the vulnerable window was. The room it led to was empty, so the thief opened it without a hitch and then helped Fer go through as well.
But then, disaster! A sudden gust of wind hit the window, making it open too much and too fast until it hit the wall, making a loud clang. A few moments later the infiltrated pair could hear a muffled voice from beyond the door.
Bloody hell! I bet it was that stupid window again. The voice was followed by steps heading towards the room.
-
Marlow bit off a curse - of course, things couldn't be easy. The room lacked objects to hide behind - except the door, maybe. He gestured for Fer to be silent, and rushed to the side of the door with the scholar in tow, aiming to have the opening of the door itself hide them.
-
Marlow and Fere managed to scurry behind the opening door in time, with the heavy wood almost hitting the mage in the face. The guard that peered inside immediately noticed the window slammed open.
Knew it! Then he turned around, leaving the door half-open. Hey Darius, help me board this thing up!
What, right now?
Of course right now! Come on, it'll take no time between the two of us.
The conversation was getting further and further away, as the soldiers went deeper into the museum. But this had given the thief an opportunity: there were no guards in sight patrolling the main hallway that lead to the room where the treasure was stored.
-
Fer gulped, the wood of the heavy door about a centimeter from his face -- he really was completely out of his element here, in addition to feeling bad about it in the first place. Really, if not for the fact that Marlow seemed remarkably skilled at this sort of thing, he'd be completely screwed.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/lKndQnl.png)"Move, now." Marlow said under his breath, quickly and quietly moving down the hall, but keeping an eye and ear out for the guards (or for different guards, for that matter)
-
Marlow and Fer snuck out of the window room to the main hall, moving towards the far end, passing several sculptures and paintings along the way. Fortunately for them, the storage room was at the end of the museum, next to an exit, a location where the only guards they could have encountered were the two that they almost met before.
The infiltrator pair were in front of the door to the storage, when they heard the guards come back.
Darius, did you get the hammer?
It's in the storage room, I'm gonna get it now.
Outside the museum, in the park nearby where Ethan and the rest were loitering, some knights came near and asked the dreaded question.
Hey, aren't you notorious pirate Ethan Valle?
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Another person mistakes me for that... no, I'm a mercenary guy. Edward Longbarrel's the name. Why do you ask?" Ethan spoke without hesistating for a second.
Ain't gonna catch him this time, nope.
-
Marlow quickly ducked into the storage room with Fer in tow, looking for a hiding spot for the both of them. If time permitted, he'd also put the hammer in plain sight from the door, such that when the guard arrived he'd not need to look around the room for the tool and risk finding them.
-
Marlow and Fer snuck into the room, but then disaster happened! Fer's robes snagged on the door when it was closed, and now the mage was stuck in a precarious position. There wasn't enough time for Fer to hide, so when the guard tried to enter, the only option was to lock the door to buy the two some time.
Hey, this door wasn't supposed to be locked, was it?
No, we don't have the key for it!
The guards tried to force the door to open, but Fer was on the other side.
Well then, what is Edward Longbarrel hanging out with the rest of Ethan Valle's crew? The knights drew their weapons and approached menacingly.

That's it, I'm taking the door down!
23-10=13 damage!
The door's crunch when it was hit by the lance echoed across the whole museum.
Those are the ones that killed Arst and took Lord Antore's dowry! They made every Demuran knight look like fool! The knights charged, while more of them were alerted and showed up around them.
The knights stepped forward and missed Ethan and Gawen. Their armor was strong enough to withstand the counters, but Ethan at least managed to scratch the knight a bit.

Claude was still dissatisfied, but it was back to a fight of life or death and he knew which option to pick. He had quite a few scabbards on his armor already, and after noticing the knights he put away his sword and unsheathed the recently-purchased blade, brandishing it as he took Gawen's place.

"That door's looking a bit broken!" Marlow hissed, rushing to the next chest.
P3, chest, canto to Q4
-
(http://i61.tinypic.com/2ed9gfc.png):"Ahhh fuck, I think I hear more of them coming! Ah, um, I guess I'll talk to them!"
Fer gulped, and spoke louder.
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"A-ah, yes, there are intruders, there's no point in hiding it anymore, um. We're only doing this because one of the artifacts you have is in fact deeply important outside of archaeology, and, uh, I really didn't want to do this but it really doesn't seem like we have another choice! Ah, oh, no, I don't think that's going to do it...!"
-
Claude to H-9, Wooden Sword Archer C.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/lKndQnl.png)"Start throwing fireballs if you have to! You can make it not kill them, right?" Marlow wasn't sure, not being a mage, but it was magic so who the heck knows.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "It's getting a bit exciting around here."
She meant it in two ways: this was a real challenge, just the way she liked it, the whole city seemingly coming down on them. But when she thought about it, Lavinia couldn't help but remember that was the very thing that Claude and some of the others had seemed apprehensive about.
Still, this was a fight. She wasn't going to hesitate.
F-10, Killer Lance Mounted Guard F.
-
Vortai noticed the reinforcements, specifically the light magic users and shook his head.
(https://i.imgur.com/XcjiAZV.png) "I do not think 'exciting' is the word I would use to describe this situation. It is unfortunate that they are sending so many troops just to guard a museum."
J, 8, blast the knight.
-
Marlow found that the chest was more intricately locked than the others, requiring a bit more pickwork to open it, but the reason why was clear: in it, a gold diadem encrusted with jewels, designed in the already familiar way that the Royal Treasures were. There was also a small note next to it that said "Crown of Courage".
And then Fer's words had a response.
We are going to open the door! If you have weapons, drop them!
Lavinia's strike wasn't as flashy as Gawen's, but it did the job.

Fer looked back at Marlow, an increasingly nervous expression on his face.
(http://i61.tinypic.com/2ed9gfc.png):"Marlow, there's at least three of them out there, and I don't think I can take that many of them! I'm gonna put my tome away and see if I can be distracting long enough for something to happen. Fuck, uh, hide behind me if you can!"
Fer raised his hands wide up and to the side in a surrender gesture, causing his robes to splay a bit and hopefully at least mostly conceal Marlow.
Fer takes Marlow's concoction, and unequips his tome.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "This is more of a calculated and necessary disaster than anything else."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/XcjiAZV.png) "Disaster. Yes, that is a fitting word for this situation."

Gawen groaned.
(https://i.imgur.com/eyBOf1y.png)"I'm going to be disowned before this is all said and done, aren't I?"

Maria grabbed Lavinia and hoisted her up before she could go out fighting, or whatever junk she'd probably end up using if things got too tough, and hightailed it towards the museum. At the very least, it might be able to buy them some time.

For a moment, Fer was filled with raw terror -- he had been certain that he would be able to talk things through, somehow, but the lance that tore into him despite his lack of a weapon told him otherwise.
Just as he was convinced he was about to die, however, the wall opened up, and some woman was standing there, offering them a way out.
Fer didn't hesitate.
Why would he?
(http://i58.tinypic.com/qwye7k.png):"Marlow, hurry up and grab that last treasure! I-- I'm not going to be able to survive sticking around these guards any longer!"

Fer winced as the museum guard fell — he had tried so hard to prevent their deaths, but he couldn’t blame his mysterious rescuer for defending herself. Perhaps the guard in question had brought it on humself at that point with that suicide charge, anyhow.

Amberly moved to attack an enemy monk, doing her best not to think of the man as some sort of heretic, and spotted a familiar set of red hair.
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "Fer! Thank the Old Gods, we are in trouble out here. Is Mister Weston with you? Did you find the artifact?" The nun's questions faded away when she spotted the dark-haired woman standing nearby.
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "...and who is that? She looks oddly familiar."
L5, zap Monk A!

Fer nodded and gulped — them being in trouble didn’t sound fantastic when he himself was a little unsteady on his feet after that brutal lance strike. At least he was going to get healed.
(http://i58.tinypic.com/qwye7k.png):"A-ah, Miss Amberly. Um, yes, he is, yes he has the treasure, and, uh, I don’t know, she kind of just rescued us, she hasn’t, um, hasn’t introduced herself yet."

Marlow called from around the corner.

After finishing what Gawen had started and chopping a rider right off his horse with his heaviest blade, Claude quickly drew and introduced his older sword to a nearby archer's clavicle. In the mess that was that brawl, he had no idea what the commotion at the back was about.

Claude Gets His Weight On with the Wooden Sword and murders Demura Archer C.

Amberly gestured confusedly down the alley.
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "Down that way. Some dark-haired woman in a black-and-white outfit is with Fer and Marlow, and I swear she looks fami--" Suddenly, memories of fighting just such a woman on board the Blackbones came flooding back!

(http://i61.tinypic.com/2ed9gfc.png):"An-- an enemy?!"
Fer's eyes darted between Carmen and the crew and also the massive battle currently ongoing.
(http://i61.tinypic.com/2ed9gfc.png):"A-ah-- I'm sorry but-- I don't really know what's going on so-- I'm going to just-- go right here--"
Stammering and stumbling, Fer ended up just moving near Ethan (maybe not a good idea for his safety on its own, he realized, but TOO LATE), and fired a blast of Elfire at the man the captain was currently fighting.
Fer moves to J5 and fires Elfire at Knight D!

The first time they'd seen Carmen, they'd fought off a horde of horsemen too. She hadn't done half bad - had taken more than a few arrows, just like she'd taken a javelin to the shoulder just now - but she liked to think she'd learned how to deal with them. She'd taken down a couple horses already this fight, theory put into practice.
Time for more practice, then. Lavinia moved back into the fray, hunting the last horseman.

Claude to G-7.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Fuck off. Now." he told the healer with all the politesse of someone whose patience had long disappeared
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)"Thank you for your assistance, however unexpected. Though I suspect discussion might want to wait."
D5
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)"Angelica, grab Lavinia; we need to get out of here before we're recognized." She glanced awkwardly down at her own armor, decked out in her family colors and crest.
-
Ethan meanwhile bumps against Gawen and ends at E5
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Ugh! You're in my way..."
-
Gawen made an offended noise as Ethan made contact.
(https://i.imgur.com/JIu8fAa.png)"And you need to watch your hands!"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Not my fault that your back-"
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "-armor-"
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "-plates take so much space. You stand in a doorway and not a fly gets through!"
-
Amberly scampers off to C-9, glad to be getting away from the massive knights.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/JIu8fAa.png)"Indeed, because they were all drawn to your stench! Now keep your odoriferous mitts away from my. . . armor plates."
-
D-4, heal Gawen
-
Fer looked out over the battlefield...
(http://i61.tinypic.com/2ed9gfc.png):"There... there are so many, aren't there...?"
...it was a scene of carnage. Corpses, burnt or hacked apart or blasted or stabbed, littered the area. They had killed... a lot of people, hadn't they? He'd helped, too. A wave of nausea and revulsion passed over the Jasso mage as he realized what a loss of human life it was. They'd come in, robbed a museum, killed one of its guards, and then killed tens of the city guards whose job it really just was to stop people doing what they were doing.
If they'd made it out quicker, would this have happened?
Fer clapped a hand to his mouth, and took in a shuddering breath before he let it drop and simply began to run, as fast as he could in his thick robes.
F5.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/lKndQnl.png)"In fairness, they got violent first. We could've been in and out without a dead man. But we can talk later." Speaking of corpses - Marlow looked at the priest as he passed. "Run if you want to live."
D6
-
Ethan side-eyed Gawen, thinking way too briefly about her words.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "...did you just admit that part of you is attracted to me? Man, I always knew I have killer looks."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/JIu8fAa.png)". . ."
Gawen just looked at Ethan with more confusion than anything else for a moment, then rolled her eyes and went back to watching for approaching foes.

"What is even happening right now, Angelica mutters as she hauls Lavinia away from the field.
G4, pick up Lavinia, canto to C4
-
Not taking the time to think about the situation at hand, Maria spurred her horse off, grabbing whoever she could discern was behind. She didn't think it was going to be the guy with the mask that slung dark magic everywhere, but right now, that wasn't the major concern.
E4, grab Vortai, canto to B5

25 HP restored!
Enemy Phase
The priest was taken aback and steps away.
Undine Priest A moves to F8.
Halt, damn you! Halt! The knights desperately tried to stop Claude with a few javelins to no avail.
Demura Knight H moves to H8.
Demura Knight H attacks!
Hit: 99+15-15-5-42=52. Roll: 36. Hit!

Ethan bypasses the barrel, moves to A5, and absconds.
-
Gawen also moves to A5 and escapes
-
Angelica drags Lavinia through A5 and bails.
-
Vortai barely had time to understand the situation before he was grabbed by someone, only to give them a puzzled look.
(https://i.imgur.com/ZpIn83r.png) "I do not understand this sudden gesture-Is this the so called 'hug'? It certainly does not feel comfortable."
-
Maria quickly glanced at Vortai, though she was more focused on not trampling anyone. Was he joking? From what little Maria had gathered from him before, he didn't seem the type to. She could be wrong, but from her quick glance, she didn't see a laugh... Not like she could see much of his face anyway.
(https://i.imgur.com/bkscgbx.png) "No...? You were just a little behind 's all. And this probably feels a little bit more comfortable than getting stabbed by other cavaliers."
A5, Ride outta here
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Shit." Claude took a hit straight to his back. The pain registered, and though there were things in his mind more important than the spear that was stuck to his armor, it did spur him to dodge the second javelin.
After the healer moved away, Claude spared a glance at Lavinia and the rest of the group before running away from the pursuing armored knights, the last out. Not that he was slower; the thing that weighted heavily upon him was his conscience rather than his weapons.
Claude is auto'd out of the map after the rest escapes.
-
A6, flip off the reinforcements and abscond
-
(https://i.imgur.com/XcjiAZV.png) "I see. I suppose you do raise a valid point."
(https://i.imgur.com/ZpIn83r.png) "As you did not alert me before doing such thing, I thought you were attempting to perform a very odd ritual during our escape."

(http://i.imgur.com/osH6H8I.jpg) "Wait, did... You just called a hug an 'odd ritual', right?"
(http://i.imgur.com/Hy6dx3G.jpg) "I wasn't too sure about it before, but you have to be pulling my leg. I didn't think anyone could describe a hug like that. You're making it sound like it's way more complicated and weird than it is."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/XcjiAZV.png) "But it is a ritual isn't it?"
(https://i.imgur.com/XcjiAZV.png) "I am certainly not 'pulling on your leg'. Are not hugs related to some sort of ritual to show off affection?"

(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Alright crew time for some smooth sailin' outta here!"
-
With the path open, the few guards remaining retreating, and more than enough time to pick up the hurt and have the stragglers reach the ship, the group made their daring escape.
~~~~Chapter 6 Complete~~~~
XP: 0/100
As the Blackbones sailed away from Demura's port, the party could see a large contingent of guards and soldiers heading down the way they came. Bells were being tolled around as alarms, but by the time the Domirian ships would get in motion, the small privateer ship would be long gone.
Ethan and his group had made it out with the last of the Royal Treasures, as well as with a guest. Carmen, who had been looking out to port until they were at a safe distance, sat against a crate and finally took a breath of relief.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/TstMAgV.png) "I somewhat doubt this day will involve anything with the word 'smooth'. And we still have to do something about our 'guest' over there."
-
Amberly, not knowing what else to do, knelt at the aft railing and prayed. It was a sort of panic-stricken, all-purposes prayer for any of the Old Gods that deigned to hear her. The nun prayed for the souls of her and her companions, as well as all those that were killed in the city as a result of their actions. Apostates they may have been, but they hadn't deserved to be caught up in that mess.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/PXJhsf8.png)"You can say that again. This was practically an act of war. I would be shocked if Domirian ships weren't being given orders to sink Alvadan vessels on sight as we speak." The woman took a deep breath; now that all of the immediate threats were dealt with, there was nothing to distract her from thinking about the ones looming, and it was starting to show. "And it's likely that this will be traced back to us. We may even be declared wanted persons, especially if Alvada chooses the diplomatic route." And I gave my proper name like a fool, believing we could work this out quietly.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/TstMAgV.png) "Something tells me they will choose the diplomatic route to avoid a war caused by a small group of 'pirates' robbing a museum. Which still is not a thing I am looking forward to see."
Vortai finally had time to check his pockets and reached for the Fell Contract, only to open his book and place it between the pages.
(https://i.imgur.com/XcjiAZV.png) "After all, we already had to deal with others trying to attack us on sea, so if they put a bounty on us, we will be fighting during day and night."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/PXJhsf8.png)"Lovely. I so relish the thought of murdering groups of the citizens I swore to protect." Granted, your average bounty hunter was not the scrupulous sort, but they still contributed more than they cost in taking down even more unscrupulous types. And, unlike some, she preferred to avoid killing in general.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/XcjiAZV.png) "An unfortunate fate for both of the sides."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): You can't say for sure what Alvada will do. This was necessary after all.
Carmen stood up and walked up to Ethan.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Ethan, I need to take you to Duo Alva.
-
Once he got onto the ship, Fer collapsed, knees finally buckling thanks to both the physical exertion and stress of the heist and then battle and the horror he'd been experiencing the entire time at what he'd done. He scooted over to a railing of the ship after a couple of moments, then leaned against it and looked up at the sky.
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"We've done something really, truly terrible."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Captain Ethan." Ethan rubbed his chin.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "You've saved my life." He then placed his hands on his sides.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "You also tried to kill me twice. I demand an explanation, and its better be a good one."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): In my defense, I wasn't trying to kill you, I was trying to take you away.
Carmen's gaze shifted a bit.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): I intended it to look like a bounty hunt because I didn't want to risk word getting around if I revealed the true reason.
-
Ethan crossed his arms, unconvinced.
If he had an x-shaped button, he would press it to express even more doubt.
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): I guess it's time to reveal it then... Ethan, do you know who you are? Who you really are?
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "I'm Ethan."
-
Carmen smirked.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): You usually don't answer that whenever someone asks... You don't know how right you were those times.
The smirk disappeared from Carmen's face as she took her usual look.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): I am Carmen Aldela, Captain of the Royal Guard, undertaking the mission to recover you under utmost secrecy. And you... You are Narius, twin brother of King Titus of Alvada, thought lost at sea fifteen years ago, but King Titus never believed you were dead. Twin senses, according to him.
-
Ethan blinked as his brain processed what Carmen just said.
And then he burst out into laughter.
-
Carmen huffed.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Are you laughing because you don't believe me, or because you do and this is your way of dealing with it?
-
Ethan wheezed, wiped off a tear, and then took a breath, snorting in laughter in-between.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "I'm laughing because you're crazy."
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Me? A royal? Hah!"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"It... It is technically possible. There are plenty of stories of men rescued from the sea who don't remember their pasts. Who have forgotten who they are. And even some who swear they know who they are but are found by family after that they never knew they had. N-now I'm not saying it's likely... The captain isn't exactly the royal type but... It is possible."
-
A number of thoughts passed through Gawen's head. Incredulity was a large part of it; in this, her and Ethan could agree. The idea of him being a noble, a royal no less, was absurd. He had neither the bearing nor the attitude requisite of the role. Then the thought occurred to her: if this was true, there was only one person on the ship trained in the behavior expected of someone of that station.
(https://i.imgur.com/7XjVeQK.png)"Ohohoho! It may be time for some etiquette lessons, Valle. You'll need to learn to use cutlery smaller than an axe and everything!
Gawen's expression sobered somewhat as she pushed the absurdity of the idea aside for the moment, focusing on the practical side.
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)"Though, Captain Aldela, I would expect some kind of proof of both your identity and his. Not to doubt you personally, but one can never be too sure."
-
Ethan glared at Lysander, then Gawen.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Insanity is contagious, I see." He scoffed.
-
Carmen said nothing until she fished out a signet ring out of her pocket.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): This ring bears the crest of the royal family. Lady Cawallader, could you confirm it?
-
Gawen held her hand out towards the woman.
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)"If I may?" She waited a moment for confirmation, then carefully took the ring for a moment. She inspected it closely, holding it close to her eye, then up towards the sun. The noble closed her hand about it for a moment, weighing it in her palm, then passed it back to Carmen.
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)"This is either the genuine article or an excellent counterfeit of such. Given the circumstances, I am inclined to believe it. It would be strange indeed for someone to go through this great of an effort to catch a single pirate." Gawen frowned for a moment. "Valle, how many years have you seen?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "I don't know. Twenty?"
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): If you'll excuse me. Carmen stopped Gawen before speaking to Ethan herself.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): I noticed that pendant you wear. Care to compare it with the ring?
-
Ethan looked at Carmen, then at his crew, and after a short while, carefully took the pendant off.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Damage it, and to the fishies you go." Ethan handed the pendant to the woman.
-
Carmen took the pendant and compared it to the ring. Although the pendant was more detailed and complex, the center of it had the exact same crest, the royal crest.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): There you go. It may still sound crazy, but it's the truth. You're the king's long lost twin.
-
Ethan snatched the pendant and put it back on.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "I've had this pendant since I was a kid. Don't remember how I got it, but I certainly didn't take it from my 'royal' crib. Probably got it somewhere on the streets."
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "And, I still don't believe you."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Royal jewelry, "on the streets"? Now that's crazy. Let me bring you to Duo Alva, and King Titus himself will tell you. If he doesn't recognize you, I'll make sure you're compensated. Besides... don't you have business there anyways?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/XcjiAZV.png) "...I will just check on Fer for now, as it seems this experience was a tad shocking for him."
Instead of talking to the mage right away Vortai moved away from he rest of the group to prepare for his ceremony; it was time to gain the desired knowledge. He reached for the contract and wrote his name down on it before letting it burn on his hand.
(https://i.imgur.com/5wwflET.png) "The deed is done, now give me what I want!"
Use Fell Contract and promote to Summoner!
With green flames engulfing his form, all he could do was stand still and embrace this new flow of energy and what he truly was hoping for; the knowledge needed to create a soldier of his own. When they vanished, he glanced down to inspect his new armor before giving a nod.
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "Good...This will do."
With that being sorted out, he made his way towards Fer.
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "Something seems to be bothering you yet. Is this about the unfortunate event we had to face?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)"She has a point, Valle. You've nothing to lose."
-
Fer visibly started when he looked up and saw Vortai in his new, significantly more intimidating armor, making a little sound -- but once he recognized the man as Vortai he calmed down, reentering his mood.
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"I have held nothing but respect for that museum for years and years. It's places like that that I love, that I exist to bolster. The Jasso magic library in Duo Alva is where I come from, and its role is very very similar. ...and yet, we broke into that museum, ransacked it, killed a guard, and then killed many more people just trying to defend it and their city. I..." He lost his voice, exhaling. "How... how can I possibly reconcile with that?"
-
Vortai couldn't quite understand what startled Fer, but considering he began to explain what was bothering him already, he preferred to not make questions related to his odd reaction. The summoner moved a gloved hand under his chin in a pondering motion before nodding.
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "I see. So that place has a very important meaning to you, I can see why this is difficult for you. It is...Also unfortunate that our escape required us to fight so many of them but..."
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "...I do not see you as a doomed man. It is clear you didn't wish things to take this direction, or act like someone ready for any sort of war, no matter the outcome. You need to look forward, there's a bright future for bright minds-Like ours."
Vortai raised a hand and tapped his pointed fingers a few times before resting that same hand on Fer's shoulder.
(https://i.imgur.com/tPZhrdj.png) "Make good use of this knowledge that may grace us. This path we are taking is an odd one, but I am sure your mind will find some peace once you notice that you can also assist other beings with your magic. You know all too well that the road to gain more wisdom is very bumpy and with...Unfortunate events, story does repeat itself over and over, but you can make it different. Always remember of the good and bad moments you passed and will pass through and use them as a way to help you to channel your power."
-
Fer sighed, quietly.
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"I don't think it'd my future I'm worried about here, Vortai, or my power. I think I've been making good track on the latter, and the former... well, I don't know, really, but I'll probably be fine. But the entire reason I do what I do, my family does what we do is to restore what we lost, the knowledge we lost, with the Shattering. To do something like this... it's really, truly terrible."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "...So you do have a specific objective, after all. I assumed you were just another scholar wandering in hopes of gaining more knowledge."
Personally Vortai wasn't too bothered or affected by what they had to do, those people did their job-As pointless as it felt considering how easily they were tearing through their defenses, they were better off just letting them pass. But he still tried to see things in another angle in hopes of calming Fer down.
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "Like I said, this is a bumpy road. You have your mind set on an objective, so you may have to face some challenging and...Bothersome situations before reaching it, consider this a way to test your resolve. There are no easy ways to reach a difficult objective, all you can do is prepare yourself for the path you will be facing."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "I'm heading belowdecks." Claude mumbled after the whole mess with Ethan's lineage of lack thereof was announced. He looked downcast.
-
The atmosphere felt more than a little heavy with regret.
Lavinia was leaning on one of the railings again, watching the sea. She had turned to regard the others as they debated Ethan's identity and birthright (though she didn't think she was someone who could figure out what this meant in the long run), but now that things had settled she just wanted to go back to watching the waves. Out of the corner of her eye she caught a glimpse of Claude's back as he headed belowdecks.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "..."
She let out a short breath, then pushed herself off the railing. As she passed Ethan, Carmen, Gawen, and Lysander, she left her own take:
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "You're still our captain, even if it turns out you're someone else on top of that."
Then she kept going, heading belowdecks herself. Finding Claude was easy enough; the rest was probably harder.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Claude?" She let the word hang in the air for a moment. "... I'm sorry it didn't turn out like any of us wanted."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "It really didn't."
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "I didn't want that mess either but lo and behold. It was necessary, sure, but that doesn't change the fact we've killed many guards doing their work. They're now corpses doing nothing but causing grief."
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Less guards doing their work means more trouble for the common folk. I hope we don't have to keep doing that kind of thing."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "... Yeah. I get it. I didn't at first, since they picked a fight with us, but... they were doing their jobs." Their jobs had just been on the wrong side of stopping another Reckoning. That was the sobering part, she supposed, the lives of those guards weighed against the casualties of a worldwide disaster.
She remembered Port Magna, everything taller when she was a kid, annoying guards asking them to spar with her. They were there to protect, or just to get their pay, but usually not to hurt and take as bandits and pirates often did. When she thought about it, that was always a thin edge. Privateer, pirate, intentions, good and bad. She was only good at fighting, but these things were important too.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "We'll be even more careful next time, so..." Lightly, Lavinia placed her knuckles against the nearest wall and knocked against it twice. "It won't happen again. Not if any of us can think of another way."
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Was there anything you were planning to do down here?" she added after a moment's thought.
-
Claude's head was more than just a little messy, and he felt conflicted and guilty over what he'd done. So of course he had one thing to resort to.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Clear my head with some work, with numbers. See if that'd work. It'll also keep me away from that mess upstairs."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "That mess, huh. Not looking to ask Ethan to pull strings at the royal treasury?"
She settled back into seriousness, the atmosphere still too heavy for real levity.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Work's not a bad idea. I'll probably head back up myself, unless you want company - the ship still needs to be sailed, and the sea air'll help too." Lavinia lifted one shoulder, relaxed it again, belatedly wondering where they stood on the... other matter still between them, and if the offer of company was strange in that light. It didn't seem the time; she didn't overthink it. "Maybe bring your work and a crate up once things calm down, see if the air helps clear your mind too."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "I'd like some company, at least for now."
Claude picked up a few papers and looked them over for a few seconds.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Did you have any bigger plans when you joined the crew? Because I did, and I still have."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "We did talk about something of the sort back in Port Omega, didn't we? Said you wanted to take down a whole crew of pirates by yourself before going back into business." Lavinia crossed her arms, glancing at the papers Claude held without much interest. "Guess you never told me what sort of business, though."
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "And I wouldn't say I had a plan, but this was what I wanted to do all along - get away from home, travel the world. Like I said before, when all this ends, maybe I'll travel inland." She'd joked about Ethan getting rich and retiring, but... wasn't that what might happen if he became royalty? He wouldn't be commanding the crew anymore, not if they foisted responsibilities on him. It was a thought that stuck like a splinter in the foot.
And she remembered that Claude had promised her something of a sound defeat first, mostly bravado and maybe something else too.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Never thought ahead more than that," she finally said. "We've still got to stop the Reckoning first."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "Yeah, this world-saving adventure got in the way of my revenge. At first I thought it might perhaps be for the best, but now I have my doubts. We might get in trouble before I can do it, and Ethan possibly being a royal can get in the way."
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "There's someone who I want to kill. The criminal responsible for ruining a peaceful trip, for disturbing my sleep for weeks. The murderer who wreaked havoc on the ship I was working in, back when I was a merchant factor still."
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "After that trip I posted quite a few information-gathering and pirate-hunting ads offering rewards, but no one got him. In the end I decided to take care of things with my own hands, and joined this crew because it was the most active, and it'd fulfilled a few of my requests."
Claude sighed and laid down the papers, a shadow of a smile appearing on his face.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "The funny part is probably that after a while, I cooled down a little. Having people to talk to helped, and I like a good contest, so having those reminded me of the older games. Even as bellicose as you are, you make for good company."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "So that's why you signed up in the first place..." Lavinia considered what Claude had said for a long moment.
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "I don't even know what bellicose means."
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "But... if you find them, and you need someone to back you up, you know I'm here." Lavinia ran a finger down her cheek thoughtfully. "Most of us would, I think, no matter what happens or who we might become in Ethan's case. I don't see why not."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rZ6iW4V.png) "Bellicose means you're always spoiling for a fight. And thanks."
Claude fell silent for a few seconds, and when his voice returned, it was with determination.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "But recently, that's made me think. I had the means to seek revenge: I had the cash, the time, the dedication and, most importantly, I still had my life. What about those who can't? Other victims of the same pirate, the people who'll suffer with the lack of guards, the enormous amount of people who just get beaten into submission by assholes and bandits?"
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "I'm not so sure I'll return to business as usual after we save the world and I kill that damned pirate. There's more than one reason for that, but one of them is that I can't pretend everything is the same."
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "There's many people like me, and after all of this is done... I might not be a hero, but I can become their hero. I can use what I've learned to help them move on."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "A hero... I can see it. Seems like a goal worth chasing. The way you say it - I don't doubt it at all."
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "I figure you don't plan on doing it alone, so maybe you'll have your own company for that someday." Lavinia considered that for a moment. "Still, wherever we end up, wherever I end up traveling, just let me know when you need a hand and I'll back you up for this too. And... who knows. I might stick around for a while just to see it all get started."
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "You could probably use someone bellicose pointed in the right direction."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Thanks, Lavinia. I'd love to have you by my side when that time comes." Claude hesitated a bit after realizing what he'd just let slip.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "I mean, like. But I'd really like, not just like, only like. Anyway, I won't keep you any longer. You can go upstairs, I'll be heading up there soon as well."
-
Fer looked up at Vortai and frowned a little more, taking a couple of moments before speaking more than a little somberly.
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"I think that I don't want to be prepared to do things like this. I accepted a long time ago that to pursue knowledge might be to fight those who don't see its value or who want to see it not spread, like pirates or bookburners. But... this really is different. I think perhaps I need to... maybe instead of just letting this happen, and being prepared for the "bumps", as you put it, I need to take steps to prevent it should there be a next time. We have an important thing to do, with these artifacts... but it doesn't need to be done quite this way, Vortai. I just babbled there confusedly before all of this. ...needs to not happen again."
-
Lavinia smiled, more amused than embarrassed. (But she was embarrassed, then?)
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "... Of course."
With that, she headed back on deck, leaving any further talk again for another day.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "Oh?"
There was a tone of interest at his tone, quite surprised to hear that kind of reaction from the same mage who was so secluded and unsure about so many things.
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "Then it seems you are taking that other path I mentioned; you are breaking the cycle of history. You know all too well a lot of what we learned didn't only involve dealing with pirates or bookburners..No, we are talking about nobles, betrayal, blood soaking people's hands. There's usually a price to be paid, and some people are willing to pay the highest price as long as they get what they desire but..."
Vortai's expression changed to what was almost an eerie grin-Or at least his eyes made it look like he was grinning.
(https://i.imgur.com/HhEpNos.png) "...I can see this will not be the case, no. It is clear you learned from this experience and desire to change the direction this is taking, and I am glad to see this progress. I think it may be nice to have a new piece of knowledge to be passed to newer generations that won't require us to hide what truly happened whenever we bother writing a book. If you are so adamant to break this cycle we face, I will assist you."
-
Fer stared at Vortai for a few moments; the rather demonic visage of his new armor, and his way of speaking and what he could tell of Vortai's expression were frankly rather eerie taken together, especially right now. Still... what he was saying didn't exactly sound wrong.
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"Breaking the cycle of history... I... guess that's one way of putting it. Losing most of our knowledge in the Shattering was perhaps the worst thing that has ever happened to humankind, and its rectification is what my family exists for. And I really have devoted myself to that. But... preventing needless violence, preventing this sort of thing from making cycles of hatred... maybe... maybe that should also be what I do. You're right, I do have to learn from this. I can't come out of that nightmare and just try to ignore it. I... thank you for your support, Vortai."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "Excellent, I am sure you will be capable of doing something like that. Breaking the cycle that is usually seem as predictable or 'necessary' may encourage others to follow this path too, or at least we can hope it will cause this much shock. Less blood spilled means more people unafraid of learning more."
He was aware that his way to express himself was considered unusual to others, so he was a tad...Surprised to hear Fer thanking him.
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "...You are welcome, Fer. Glad I could be of some assistance."
-
Eventually, Amberly rose somewhat shakily to her feet. She hadn't felt any response to her prayers from the Old Gods, but that wasn't all that unusual; they were usually more concerned with keeping the world running than with the affairs of mortals. There wasn't anything to do at the moment but push forwards and hope that she receive some sort of sign.
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHzm2TXy/amberly-veilce.png): "We should examine the artifact from the museum. It would be a shame to cause so much misery over a thing and then lock it away afterwards."
-
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"Right, I suppose that is true. Ah, though... I wasn't prepared for any of this when I joined you, I must confess. Well, I've lost my right to not be now."
Then Amberly approached, and Fer nodded slowly at his other fellow scholar.
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"...yes, we should, hmm? I believe Marlow still has the thing - we will have to go get it from him, unless someone else has already taken it."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "Well, I suppose that is how things work. We live and we learn, and I suppose being a bit more social is not a bad thing after all."
Vortai was about to say something else before he noticed Amberly approaching, responding to her words with a brief nod.
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "That is true, it is only fair we get the opportunity to study it before it is stored."
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "Marlow has it? Very well, wait a moment." Amberly approached the distracted thief, and (quietly, so as not to disturb whatever was going on with the Captain and the Carmen woman) requested to borrow the crown. Upon receiving it, she returned to her fellow mages.
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "Well, here it is. It certainly looks impressive, does it not?"
-
At last, the three
nerds mages gathered the three Royal Treasures in one spot. Nothing magically special happened, but it was the first time since before the Reckoning that they were reunited, and with Ethan's royal revelation who could tell what the future holds for them?
Examining their intricate designs closely, they found a common theme in all of them, one such detail that was similar yet held important differences. The royal crest of Alvada, but not the same one from Carmen's signet ring and Ethan's old pendant. This royal crest belonged to the main royal family of Alvada, the one that ruled before the Reckoning.
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHzm2TXy/amberly-veilce.png): "Well, I would be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed. I thought perhaps something would happen as we gathered more of the relics."
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "This design is interesting, though. The old Alvadan crest hasn't been used in at least a century. Probably more."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"...to tell the truth, I was starting to expect something like that too."
Fer looked at the artifacts more closely, and then at Amberly.
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Old Alvada is actually my primary field of study -- you would probably not expect to see this crest after... maybe three hundred and eighty years ago or so. This comes from before the Reckoning, and the branch of the royal family it represents --the main one before the Reckoning-- died out in 120 After the Reckoning. Chances are that the artifacts are from before or shortly after the Reckoning; the power of this dynasty fell apart during the Dark Ages after 40 AR or so, and their ability to commission something like this would have as well."
-
Amberly reflected that it was good they had an expert on hand. Her estimate had clearly been off by about two centuries.
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "It fits with what we've been able to determine about the artifacts and where they were found. The orb, in particular, we know has been around for centuries. It is said to presage times of catastrophe, as a warning...and the last time it appeared was...well, before the Reckoning."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "Truly valuable artifacts, but I do wonder...Were there any reports of these relics being brought together before? And what were their intentions doing so?"
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "The Abbess at the House of Scholars said that when the orb appeared, Alvadan royalty was supposed to gather the rest of the artifacts in order to avert the oncoming catastrophe. Somehow. She didn't say anything on how exactly that was supposed to work, but she did imply that they had appeared at other times before the Reckoning."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"So... we've got the three artifacts... and we've got the Alvadan royalty,"
(http://i61.tinypic.com/2ed9gfc.png):"apparently,"
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"so... where's the disaster?"
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHzm2TXy/amberly-veilce.png): "Well, unless you count our little escape just now..."
The nun paused, trying to fight down her guilty feelings enough to continue speaking.
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "If the Abbess is correct, these can prevent a disaster or at least minimize the damage from one. If we're very fortunate there will simply be no disaster, and the orb will vanish once more."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "So until then will we simply keep holding them? That does sound a tad odd."
-
Ethan let out a sigh.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "So, what, you want me to sail to Alvada and...? I'm not gonna mingle with the royals. I'm staying at the sea."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)"It's not as if we shouldn't be headed there anyway, Valle." She turned toward Carmen with a questioning, but not accusatory glance. "Though I have to wonder how she knows."
-
Carmen looked away.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): I have my ways.
Then she looked at Ethan again.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): We should go to Duo Alva, speak with the Court Steward so you can see King Titus, and see where things go from there.
-
Ethan crossed his arms in display of stubborness.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Alright, as soon as you explain 'your ways'. Do you have a spy on my ship?"
-
Carmen crossed her own arms.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): If I had, would you throw them overboard?
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "No."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): In that case... no.
-
Gawen rolled her eyes.
-
Ethan rolled his eyes, letting out an exasperated sigh.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Fine then." He rubbed his forehead. "It seems we're going to Duo Alva. Crew! Set sail! The sooner I'm done with this all, the better." Ethan turned around and went to the stern of his ship.
-
Marlow had been standing quietly in the corner, listening to the whole conversation without comment "...Can't say I'd have ever pegged him as a royal." He said finally, as Ethan left. "Thanks for your help back there. And... yeah, probably right call not to say anything about that."
-
Gawen resisted the urge to sigh.
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)"I disagree. The only thing worse than discovering a spy in one's employ is discovering that there is one, but not who it is. Valle is going to mistrust everyone aboard this ship, rather than two people, until he learns the truth. Believe me, I understasnd the appeal in nettling the man, but if you want him to cooperate with you, this is the wrong approach."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): If they want Ethan to know, it should be them who tells him. I'm not selling them out just for a chance to earn his trust.
-
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"This whole thing has to have happened for some reason -- not only you all, but I also had heard of the artifacts before you all found me. That's why those pirates captured me. The artifacts are an ongoing rumor in the archaeological community, and all of this cannot be a coincidence. But, uh... I guess we do just hold onto it until whatever happens happens, I guess. I, uh, guess that it's a good thing Ethan is apparently royalty then."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)"Then tell him because it will allow him to trust his crew more. Suspicion and paranoia do strange things to people."
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/PJdPrvW5/amberly-veilangry.png): "Apparently, yes. I must say, I almost hope he isn't royalty. The idea of someone as senselessly violent as Captain Ethan being given greater authority than a ship's master does not sit well in my mind." The nun thought back to some of Ethan's more outrageous actions and threats. There were quite a few, even in the relatively short time she had been in his company.
-
~~Intermission: The Coronation~~
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/c73tucee1ydop9b/ch7a.png?raw=1)
A mere six days after hastily departing from Demura Ethan and his cohort, accompanied with Carmen, reached the port of Alvada's capital New Alva, where the mysterious woman had said Ethan's long lost twin was waiting for him.
With the three Royal Treasures in his possession, and his brother being the ill king, could the throne be Ethan's destiny?
The Blackbones looked like a dinghy next to the immense carracks and galleys docked in Duo Alva's primary dock. One of them stood out for its golden ornaments and a figurehead depicting a woman that the more knowledgeable members of the party recognized as the mother of the current king, the deceased Queen Teluna. This could be no other than the royal galleon.
As soon as the ship was docked and Carmen could step on land, she spoke up about their next step.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Here's the plan: I'll take you near the Royal Castle and then I'll go in to speak with the Royal Steward so you can enter and see the King in person. Any questions?
-
Ethan shrugged, reaffirming his whole thought about the entirety of this situation.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)"What do you suggest we do in the meantime?" Gawen couldn't help but feel slightly anxious; perhaps it was just her being paranoid again, but something about this was starting to feel off. Or it was just nerves related to the quest being nearly over. Either way, her restlessness was palatable.
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Just wait, I won't leave you alone for long.
Carmen led the group not through the middle of the city, instead taking them around the busy center. When they reached a guarded pathway, Carmen showed the guards the crest that identified her as Captain so that they would let her through.
The path led directly to the castle without having to go through crowds or neighborhoods, being mostly a nature walk. At the end, Carmen approached one of the castle's side entrances, again guarded.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Alright, stay here for a moment. Carmen showed her credentials again to the guards.
A mere ten minutes later Carmen returned and dismissed the guards, and she was accompanied by an older, gruff looking man, wearing fancy robes adorned with medals.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): You are sure it's him then, Carmen? Which one-
The old man suddenly became silent when his gaze stopped on Ethan.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Everyone, this is Court Steward Paon, former Captain of the Guard, and Regent before that.
Paon walked up to Ethan.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): It's you. It's really you... Narius.
-
Ethan crossed his arms.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "You've left us to tell him how to fake surprise very well, or something?" Ethan stared at the old man. "Name's Ethan, and I don't know you, mister."
-
Carmen rolled her eyes while Paon continued.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): I'm not surprised you don't remember me. I used to teach swordsmanship to your older brothers, but you were too young. You look just like Titus... when he was healthy. Carmen said you had the pendant, may I see it?
-
Ethan let out an exasperated sigh, but unclasped the necklace from around his neck and passed it to the old man.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Don't break it, or I will get angry."
-
Paon took the pendant with utmost care.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): This is indeed the Queen's pendant. We thought it lost when... when the White Doe sunk. But now it's back, like you are.
Paon carefully returned the pendant to Ethan.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): So, Narius, or Ethan, can I take you to see King Titus?
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Look, it's a whole bunch of coincidences. Just like coincidentally I've got the pendant when I was a kid. You need confirmation if I'm a king or no? Here we go." Ethan turned to Gawen.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Gawen, am I a King, yes, no?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)"Technically speaking, you would be a prince. You would not be king unless some ill were to befall King Titus, and then were coronated in accordance with Alvadan tradition. But, yes, the evidence does seem to be in order. As far as I can tell, you are indeed royalty by blood. . . if not necessarily by behavior."
-
Ethan furrowed his brows.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "You too have gone crazy, huh?" Ethan sighed, rubbed his temples, and looked at Paon.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Fine, just, just let's go."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Don't forget that prince or no prince, there's another important contribution you're making.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): The treasures can wait some more, Carmen. There'll be time for that. Paon then turned to Ethan and the rest. Come on, I'll take you to him.
Carmen returned the guards to their post as Paon lead the way through the brilliant halls of the Royal Castle, adorned with ornate banners, paintings and busts of previous kings and queens, and other works of art. While making their way to the King's quarters, Paon started conversation.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): What about the rest of your group? Can you introduce me to them?
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Right. Lysander, Claude, Lavinia, Ashlyn." Ethan pointed out each of his crew.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "This is Amberly and Fer, she's a nun and they're both scholars..." He turned to the two magicians, then to Marlow.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "The green one is Marlow. He is our, err, scout."
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "The round knight is Gawen and her bodyguard with the staff is Angelica." Ethan scratched his nose.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "The white one is Vortai, I think, and the last one is... Maria, right." He counted up his group, and rubbed his chin.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "...Huh. Alright, sure." He mumbled to himself, looking only slightly surprised.
-
Gawen might've sighed if this hadn't been exactly the sort of introduction she'd been expecting. Instead, she simply paused for a moment while doing her best to not look frustrated with the privateer's attitude, then did the best approximation one could of a curtsy in full plate.
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)"Gawen Cawallader, daughter of Aeron Cawallader, at the king's service. Angelica is my retainer and a talented healer."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/Cnd3wQL.png) "Such an impressive way to introduce us."
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/PJdPrvW5/amberly-veilangry.png): I simply cannot believe this.
Either this was a bad joke that was going on far too long, or this was a trap, or this was genuine. Amberly wasn't sure at the moment which outcome would be the worst.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "It's the change in masks," Lavinia said to Vortai sotto voce. "He forgot how to tell you apart except by color."
This wasn't exactly her preferred environment, she had to say. A little rich for her blood. But she supposed she was always up for a bit of novelty.
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): Gawen Cawallader, huh? An interesting group. I've heard you gave Carmen some trouble. After all, her squad is still healing up.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Don't remind me... Carmen sighed from exasperation.
Soon after the group reached an ornate wooden door.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): I'd like to hear some more, but here we are. Please be careful, the King has been very sick for a long time, and I don't know how he might react.
The steward knocked softly on the door twice, and slowly opened it. Behind, an ample room with a royal bed in the middle set against the back wall, set with the fanciest silky threads. And laying in it, a young man that looked much older and ill.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): King Titus? You have visitors. Paon opened the door fully so at least Ethan could enter.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/pje2wako5fy42me/titus.png?raw=1): Who... who is it?
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "...Name's Ethan." The Captain stepped inside, and crossed his arms.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "They're telling me that I'm your brother."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/pje2wako5fy42me/titus.png?raw=1): That voice... please, come closer.
-
Ethan let out a sigh and considered the King's words for a while, before stepping up closer.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "What was that about my voice?"
-
Titus lurched forward, groaning in pain, before settling down again and answering.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/pje2wako5fy42me/titus.png?raw=1): It reminds me so much... of our older brother Daraen. Narius... is that really you? Don't you remember me? Our family? Do you still... have that birthmark on your back, shaped like a star?
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "And what do you want from my birthma-" Ethan momentarily paled.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Wait a moment, WAIT A FUCKING MOMENT! H-How-" He stepped away from Titus.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "How the fuck YOU know about it! Only Claude and Lysander have ever seen it! How the fuck!?" Ethan stepped away, bumping carelessly against Claude. He turned to his accountant.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "You're in cahoots with them!" Ethan's voice was supposed to be angry, but it broke somewhere halfway through the sentence.
-
Titus wheezed, the closest he could get to laughing.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/pje2wako5fy42me/titus.png?raw=1): Mother always said... it was the only way to tell us apart.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "This is impossible! IMPOSSIBLE!" Ethan, for the first time in a while - or ever - looked panicked. He pointed his finger at Titus.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "I'm Ethan Valle, you hear me! My name is Ethan Valle! I can't be a-a prince! I'm not a prince! I'm Ethan!" Ethan grasped his head, fidgeting wildly and turning around in his spot. No longer panicked, he was now positively terrified.
-
Lysander stepped up and gently grabbed Ethan's arm, guving it a tug.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Ethan. Look at me. Hey. You can't just go around accusing the people that have worked with you for so long. And more importantly, if all of this is true, what does it change about you? You're still you. It doesn't matter if you're royal or a commoner, it doesn't change your heart. Nothing can change that. Titles can come and go, but it doesn't change who you really are. Our captain and friend."
-
Claude was also surprised and not that comfortable with the idea of Ethan as a prince—and possible king, what with the current monarch's illness—but denying everything helped no one.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "I am not in cahoots with anyone, Ethan. You should take a few deep breaths and calm down. Panicking will help no one. You can ask proper questions if you're cooler-headed."
-
Gawen resisted the urge to shoot Carmen a look. This was precisely the sort of reaction she'd been trying to avoid. Lysander's words might have been intended to comfort the man, but she couldn't deny that they unnerved her a tad. She had been reevaluating her thoughts on Ethan, but the man was still brutish and far too quick to jump to violence as a solution to all his problems.
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)
"Ethan, what are you afraid of, precisely? Many people would consider this a dream come true."
-
Ethan snarked.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Of course you have no idea!"
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "I'm supposed to live on land for rest of my life, tending to needs of some country I care nothing for! I don't even want the job." Ethan rubbed his face as if he was inside a nightmare and was desperately trying to wake up.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Can't you name some random nobleman as a King?" He turned toward the steward. "Or at least some eleventy-times-removed cousin of sorts? I'm sure there's plenty of candidates. I mean, appoint Gawen as a Queen, and everyone will be happy."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/Cnd3wQL.png) "Well then. This is truly being an interesting turn of events."
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "I will have to agree with the accountant. You need to take a moment to calm down."
-
Titus leaned back again, and Paon stepped forward to calm down Ethan.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): Let's not get too ahead of ourselves. King Titus isn't dead yet.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/pje2wako5fy42me/titus.png?raw=1): I'm... I'm just... Titus tried to speak but his strength failed him.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): Please, take it easy, your Majesty. Now, there's several options for you. If by some miracle King Titus survives... at least long enough to father a heir, all weight will be off your shoulders. Otherwise, you will need to be crowned King of Alvada before anything else. Titus himself has recognized you as his brother, and you bring plenty of evidence to support your claim. This will make it so there isn't any legitimacy disputes that could put Alvada in jeopardy.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): After you are crowned, you are free to sail the seas with myself or other Regents that you appoint to help keep track of the issues, and the crown comes with vast resources for that. Or if you have a heir... or find or designate a far removed member of the Royal family or another such noble, you could simply abdicate.
-
Ethan let out a huff.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Great."
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Now not only I have care for a country I do not care about, I also need to get married? What's worse?" Ethan snapped his fingers.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Wait wait wait... he dies, I ascend to the throne. Any reason why I couldn't simply abdicate and return to the sea?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)
"Well, at least you've understood that much about nobility." She had to avoid a laugh at his suggestion of naming her as next in line for the throne. It might get Father off her back, at least, but she was not exactly popular in her own family, let alone the greater bulk of Alvadan nobility.
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)
". . . Well, if you appointed me as next in line for the throne and abdicated, I would not refuse the duty my country asked of me. I. . . do not think that would be a wise move, however." She glanced between Ethan, Titus, and Paon. "There are other matters of import to discuss as well; perhaps we should let this question rest and turn to them instead."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): You'd leave a vacuum of power that would lead the noble families to quarrel amongst themselves, possibly to the point of war. Not only that, tensions with Domiria will rise, and with weakened leadership Alvada will suffer.
Paon pondered.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): Technically, although highly unconventional, you could skip the marriage part if you simply had a heir yet unborn. Perhaps with Miss Cawa-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): There's a better chance of him having a heir with you, Paon.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): Alright, alright. But one thing is certain: Narius- err, Ethan returning with the Royal Treasures of old is no coincidence.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/pje2wako5fy42me/titus.png?raw=1): I... I...
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): ...Perhaps we should let you two talk to each other.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "I meant legal reasons." Ethan turned to his 'brother' and looked at him.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "I fail to grasp any topics we could share... but alright."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "I agree. We are being too loud in the presence of the King, and while he's ill to make things worse. We should make ourselves scarce and leave it to the two of them."
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "And Ethan. Be polite. You may not care about royalty, but respect the King's current state."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Trust me Claude. I can do this."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/pje2wako5fy42me/titus.png?raw=1): I'm just so glad... I could see you again... And have you here... brother... With those words, the King closed his eyes, and with a smile on his face, finally stopped breathing.
King Titus had died.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "..."
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Hello?"
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "..."
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "You've got to be- gah." Ethan looked down at his 'brother' and cursed under his breath.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "I bet this was your plan all along, huh? You're the worst brother I've ever had. For less than half a day, but still." No tears were coming, but Ethan did stand for a moment there, staring. Then he ran up to the door and opened it, rushing up to and grabbing Paon by arm.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "He's dead! We didn't even start talking and he just- he just closed his eyes and died! You said he was just ill! You didn't mention that he was on his deathbed!!"
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): What?! Carmen's exclamation contrasted with Paon's silent shock. Everyone rushed back in, and after the moment silence passed, the Steward spoke up.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): I... I had no idea he was this close to death.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): He held on to the hope that my mission would bring him his brother.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): He thought he lost his family 15 years ago. I knew him since birth and that completely changed him. All this time he was alone... lonely. Somber. When the possibility of his brother being alive was brought up I saw the first glint of hope in his eyes in many years. But now he looks... tell me, did he die happy?
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Like I said, he closed his eyes and died." Ethan crossed his arms. "No man dies this way except elderly who accomplished everything they wanted and had nothing else left to do."
-
Gawen was quiet for a moment, placing a hand over her heart and closing her eyes.
(https://i.imgur.com/eyBOf1y.png)
"May he rest in peace." And gods help this country, she added silently.
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)
"We should not waste too much time in grief, though. If anything, the issue of the treasures has only become more urgent."
-
(http://i61.tinypic.com/2ed9gfc.png):"..."
Fer gaped silently and openly, turning to Amberly as her worries were quite abruptly proved to be entirely true. This had of course all been entirely overwhelming for the scholar from the start, with the man far from used to dealing with royalty, but... this... Ethan... Ethan... really was the King of Alvada? Ethan was the King of Alvada? Oh, they were all doomed.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/Cnd3wQL.png) "If Ethan is truly taking the crown, I do hope he gives us enough time to move as far as possible from these lands."
-
Claude was also shocked, but judging by how ill king Titus had looked... Well. The quartermaster discreetly pushed Fer's chin back up to close his mouth.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Calm down. We still have the treasures to take care of, and Ethan isn't going to be possessed by a demon and go mad with power as soon as he's crowned."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): He may not have been elderly, but he thought all he had left to do was see his brother one last time.
After a brief moment of silence the Steward spoke up.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): I will be busy notifying the court of the King's death and preparing his funeral. The matter of the treasures and introducing Prince Ethan to the court can be handled after that. I'll have some servants take you to the guest house so you can stay here until then. Will you attend to the funeral?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)
"Yes. There are some small matters I plan to attend to in the meantime, but I will be there."
-
Ethan scoffed, crossed his arms, and thought for a bit. Then he turned to his accountant.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "What you think?"
-
Amberly noticed Fer's distress at the situation, and quietly reached out a hand to his own in order to provide reassurance.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "We attend the funeral. At the very least you have to, Ethan. It won't hurt you, and even if you cannot remember the late King, he loved you as his brother."
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "In the future when you are older, not attending the funeral might turn out to be one of your greatest regrets. Consider this an investment in your future comfort."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "I can help you muscle him into it if you want." Lavinia had been loitering near the back for most of this business, and even now seemed rather out of her element. "Coin flip on whether that'll work."
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "More seriously, he was our employer in a way, so I figure we should at least pay some respects to the crown."
The king had at least died satisfied, if he had really just been waiting for his brother to be found all this time... but there was still something sad about that. She couldn't quite put her finger on it.
-
Ethan thought a little more about this.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "I will attend the funeral."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): Very well. I will have ceremonial clothes left for you in your room in case you desire to wear them.
Paon led the group outside of the deceased King's room, locking the door behind him, and left the scene.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): I need to continue performing my duties. If you need me, you can ask the guards, but I'd rather not be disturbed in a while.
Carmen left the group alone, heading in the opposite direction of Paon. Moments later, a few maids came to lead the group to the guest rooms they'd been assigned.
News of King Titus' death soon spread throughout Duo Alva, with the funeral being held the next day at dawn. All the day would be dedicated to mourning the King's passing and as such, any business or service would be closed and all workers free of working. Any and all flags would be flying at half-mast or half-staff until a new King is proclaimed.
During the funeral itself, Paon made no mention of Ethan's heritage when introducing him and the group to the other members of the court and nobles that were called to the capital, regarding them instead as persons who "brought peace to the King in his last moments". Aeron Cawallader was one of these nobles, and while noticing Gawen, the nature of the situation prevented any social talk from occurring, though this didn't prevent whispers and hushed conversations. Carmen was only seen briefly during the last salute of the guards to the King, and wasn't seen any more that day.
The funeral took more than half the day, from the lengthy procession of nobles paying their respects to the deceased, to the final send-off from the Court Priest for the Old Gods to take care of Titus' soul. At the end of the funeral, the Steward announced that next week in the same day, an important revelation about the succession to the Alvadan throne would be revealed.
The customs following the death of a ruler prevented most of the attendants to eat anything until sundown, but fortunately Ethan and his group were exempt of such customs and were given proper food after their lengthy travel. The long day finally over, everyone headed to their rooms to try to rest, as Paon had confided to them privately that the announcement would reveal Ethan's claim and, supported on the King's last words and the fact that he had returned with the Royal Alvadan Treasures, immediately crown him the next King of Alvada.
The day after the funeral started with grey skies and an ominous air. The people of Duo Alva were back to work, but the gloom about the King's death and the uncertainty of the succession had quietened the usually busy capital.
After waking up, the group were told by the maids that they were allowed free movement thoughout most of the castle, which included a personal temple to the Old Gods, a small but very well curated library, and the gardens that led to the back entrance where they first entered through, courtesy of Carmen herself notifying the guards.
-
Just in that time, Ethan finished dressing up in 'proper outfit for Alvadan Royalty', and left the chambers to meet with Gawen, Lysander and Claude. Ethan sighed out loud and turned to glare at Claude.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "This outfit is ridiculous. The fabric... it itches." He grumbled, and immediately fished a finger under the collar to scratch himself. "Simply the worst."
-
Ethan wasn't alone in a change in attire; with all of the formalities going on, Gawen had found time to doff her armor and don slightly more "ladylike" clothing, something she seemed less than comfortable in. More comfortable than Ethan, of course, but that went without saying.
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)
"Eventually you stop noticing, as you will instead feel the itch of the fabric of etiquette instead," Gawen said dryly. "Unfortunately I haven't yet met a tailor that can adjust the fit of that, though you may be able to get one to let that collar out a bit."
-
Ethan turned his gaze on Gawen, and gazed away from her face.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "I just realized how much less formidable you look when out of armor." He chuckled. "And smaller in many places, too."
-
Gawen made an offended noise, flushing for a moment before quickly smoothing her face over.
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)
"Is it possible for you to go more than twenty minutes before saying something brutish or crude? Honestly." The comment seemed to have offended her, judging by the hurt tone she couldn't completely excise from her voice. "And even you of all people should know that nobles dressed in finery have ruined far more men than armored ones."
-
Ethan barely managed to not grin.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "I meant your height, obviously. Plus, if any noble dares approach me, I have a way to get them in their place."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)
"Clearly," she responded, in a tone clearly indicating she understood that it was his intention the entire time and he was not making any jokes at her expense whatsoever. "Typically I would insult your hygeine or general lack of refinement, but is there any way you could attempt to behave yourself? This is a poor time to be starting feuds with your nobles."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "Hmph. By the time they will decide on anything, I will be long on the sea, doing what I do best - privateering."
-
Fer sat in the castle's library with a book, but though his eyes scanned the pages, he wasn't taking in a single word of what he was reading. Instead, the man's mind was racing on multiple topics.
Firstly, the question of what Ethan's ascension meant for Alvada was of course something occupying the mage's brain. Why wouldn't it be? He was a native of Alvada, of Duo Alva even, and the... the new king's decisions were something that he and his family would be feeling for decades. And it was Ethan, the same guy who had threatened him with an axe on first sight. Fuck.
Secondly, there was the question of what it meant for Fer, personally, and THAT was also terrifying. Were there going to be, like, hordes of angry claimants coming out of the woodwork to try to kill Ethan and, by extension, him? Yes, probably. Oh, shit.
And then, almost teenager-like, there was the third topic on Fer's mind: the fact that Amberly had reached her hand out to his during the whole thing with the... former... king, and the fact that he hadn't take it. She was cute, sure, but he barely knew her, and he definitely hadn't been ready to go and hold hands with her just like that. But what if she felt terrible about that? But, wait, wasn't she a nun? What if she just didn't realize the implications of it. Oh, man.
-
Amberly sat alone in the room assigned to her, contemplating the events of the past couple of days. She had spent much of the time assisting the more senior clerics with the funeral rites necessary for putting a king to rest, and she had went ahead and observed the day of fasting. Now it was time to figure out what would happen next.
She supposed that Captain Ethan would become the new King, unless he somehow weaseled his way out or there was another lost brother (or sister?) somewhere. She hoped that would be the case, but considering how the world appeared to be teetering on the edge of some new Reckoning-scale catastrophe she wasn't optimistic. Perhaps he was the catastrophe? The nun smiled to herself at the absurdity of that thought. Ethan probably wouldn't be the most beloved king in the world, but surely he couldn't be that bad.
Amberly's thoughts drifted to Fer. She remembered how distraught the scholar had looked, in those moments after the old king's death, and how she had tried to comfort him. It was odd, looking back, how she reacted so immediately to the sight of him. True, she was a servant of the Old Gods and such servants were often called upon to help those in need...but she hadn't exactly jumped into helping Ethan or Paon, had she?
And if she were 100% honest with herself, she felt vaguely disappointed that he hadn't taken her hand when offered...
Amberly shook her head and stood up, trying to rid herself of those strange thoughts. Perhaps she'd go for a walk.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Such is life, captain. Take solace in the fact your post-coronation freedom has been assured for long enough to have you either get used to the idea or find an alternative path that pleases you and the country."
-
Amberly strolled through the castle, no particular destination in mind now that her duties with the funeral were over. It was nice to able to just walk around, not worrying about hunting down artifacts or fighting for her life.
Through sheer happenstance, she found herself in the library, and was debating whether or not to find something to read when she spotted a familiar red-haired mage.
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "Good day, Fer. Do you mind if I join you?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)
"I think you've underestimated how quickly an annoyed noble will work to ruin your life - particularly when there's something to be gained by doing so."
-
Ethan blinked at both Gawen and Claude.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "...excuse me, you actually believe that I'm gonna play King for the rest of my life?"
-
Well, speak of the devil... or... er... think of the nun and she-- alright, well, Fer had lost mental track of the saying, but he knew what he meant. It was slightly awkward that just has he was thinking about how he'd been awkward with Amberly that she showed up, but, like... he wasn't just gonna kick them out.
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"E-er, yeah, you can go ahead."
This was not going to help his reading comprehension.
-
Amberly sat down across from Fer and spent a moment studying the mage, wondering if he felt nervous about something. Probably just her imagination, or he was simply nervous about the current succession issue. Not an unreasonable worry.
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "A gold piece for your thoughts? I'm sure the past couple of days have been quite stressful, especially coming off of that...incident in Demura."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rZ6iW4V.png) "Pfffff."
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "I—I wouldn't dare imagine that, captain."
-
Ethan glared at his accountant.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "Good to know. My first order of business will be to prepare abdication papers, I guess. But that's after we're done with the treasures."
-
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"Er, I've got a lot of thoughts, so it might be more of a dollar for my thoughts... um, a metaphorical dollar that is, I'm not actually asking for-- anyway!"
Fer cleared his throat.
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"Well, you know... most of it is about the idea of Ethan being king. This is the guy who immediately threatened me with an axe when he met, and all, and my family's library is set up right here in Duo Alva, so, it's, uh... it's... it's pretty worrying, honestly. I don't really know what's gonna become of Alvada. Plus, uh, it'll probably make OUR lives waaay harder. Since, like, there are probably incredibly enraged nobles who are going to send, like, assassins, and... yeah. Lots of... lots of stuff to worry about."
There was also the hand-holding thing of course, but he wasn't going to mention that, it would be incredibly embarrassing. Or should he? He... wasn't sure she actually understood what that meant. But, wait, if he told her what hand-holding is... she's a nun, right? Would the Church get hi--
No, of course the church wouldn't go after him for teaching a nun about fucking hand-holding, what in the world was wrong with him.
(He colored slightly as this train of thought went through his head.)
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)
"No, your first move will be to find someone suitable to take the throne, even if I have to knock you out and drag your hands across the papers myself. You may not be cut out for the kingly life, Ethan, but I will not allow you to do something as dangerous as leaving the throne with no clear claimant."
-
Lavinia rested for a moment, supporting herself on her lance. The gardens stretched all around her, expansive enough that it was easy to wonder how many gardeners the place needed.
If you asked her, she wasn't much cut out to make judgments on this royal business. No doubt Claude and Lysander were having to help deal with it right now, and Ethan protesting at every chance to do so. She could understand that if nothing else. There were plenty of worse fates than being penned up in a place like this, but... she supposed it was being penned up all the same.
She'd meant to come out here to train. She hadn't started yet. Maybe she could see about roping a royal guard to give her a few lessons. Like old times, in younger days, with guards that'd been considerably less royal. Or maybe she could see about finding one of the other members of the crew, just to shoot the breeze. Seemed to be a bit of downtime even with what was going on with Ethan, and no second Reckoning on the horizon yet.
She started walking, wandering the gardens, not going anywhere in particular.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "And you're not a good claimant because...?"

Lysander had been following the other three quietly, thinking things through, not wanting to be involved in all of this, but he finally spoke up.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"I think that's part of the problem... You don't know anything about the politics of the situation right now. While Lady Gawen might be a suitable occupant of the throne, you don't know what political situation might be set off by naming her as such. And while you may claim to not care what sort of political turmoil results from your leaving, this country is the reason you are as successful as you are. Don't forget that you work for them. If you abdicate and leave no one in charge, or leave someone disliked by the country, do you think they will continue to pay you during a civil war? They will have bigger things on their mind than a privateer. And I do not think that too many of your crew would continue to follow you if you turned to true piracy. I know that I, for one, would not. And I think I am not the only one. So as much as you hate all of this, you need to care. Hate it you might, but this is who you are and it is your responsibility now. You can't run from this completely."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Gawen and Lysander are correct. This isn't a joke, and you cannot act however you feel now that the destiny of a nation is in your hands. We need a suitable replacement for you before you abdicate. If the kingdom is left kingless, your livelihood will likely be ruined, but that'll be the least of our worries as the country burns to ash in the fires of internecine war."
-
Gawen blinked. Somehow, she hadn't been expecting that.
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)
"I am not the most popular among my family, and quite honestly have distanced myself from politics as much as I can." She sighed. "If you abdicated the throne to me and by some miracle, a dozen bastards and pretenders didn't crawl out of the woodwork with factions backing their claims to the throne, I would accept that responsibility, I suppose; the Cawalladers aren't the most powerful house, but we are old and proud, and could make a decent claim to the throne. Still, I have to urge you to at least attempt to familiarize yourself with the situation before you make decisions regarding the fate of the country."
-
Vortai had been pondering if this was the kind of occasion to wear his ceremonial mask, but considering the direction this revelation was taking...he preferred to keep his focus on something else. So for a while he was just "testing" that new unsealed power, of course away from curious eyes just in case something went wrong. But after he was done with his studies he made his way towards the group-or at least he was hoping to find them considering they apparently scattered after the unpleasant news.
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "Hmm. Perhaps I should have followed them after all."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "I'm sure that in a civil war there would be more than enough work for criminals like me, Lysander. Plus, you won't be returning to my crew after this is over, anyway." Ethan blinked.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "I assume Gawen haven't told you yet."
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "As for the kingdom, fine. I will keep the crown as long as we need to find a willing guy to sit on the throne."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)
"Ethan. The first step in securing one's claim to the throne is disposing of anyone else who might try to do so. A civil war would mean half of Alvada after your head so that you can't come back and decide you want the throne - or produce any bastards that might do the same. That said, it is good to hear that you are willing to take the steps to avoid this outcome." She turned to Lysander for a moment.
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)
"And yes, there hasn't been a good opportunity yet. I suppose now is as good a time as ever to discuss it. Lysander, I have been planning on offering you employment with my House once this is all over with, if you are willing. There is always a shortage of healers, and I believe there are many places where you could do great work.'
-
Ethan scoffed.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "Don't think I will be doing this because I care, Gawen. I'm more afraid of the possibility that I'm gonna be stuck on the throne forever because no one better shows up. Such a life would be torture for me."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)
"I apologize, Ethan, I did not mean to insinuate that you had grown such a strange thing as a conscience," Gawen said dryly.
-
Under her veil, Amberly smiled at Fer's awkwardness. The smile faded however as the mage began to lay out everything that was bothering him.
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHzm2TXy/amberly-veilce.png): "I do not recall if I told you of this, but you were not the first one I saw Ethan threaten with death. He did the same thing in Port Omega, because a group of villagers had simply witnessed him with one of the artifacts. Luckily we were able to talk him down, but still...
"I wish I could promise you that everything will work out perfectly in the coming months, that there will be no fallout from the old King's death, but that would be an insult to your intelligence. Short of divine intervention I do not believe that the Captain will make a wise and capable ruler, so our best hope is that he finds someone better-suited to fill the throne. We will simply need to do our best to ensure that what you fear does not come to pass, or try to minimize what damage results."
The nun eyed Fer's features, noting that he certainly looked the part of a noble scholar. She wondered what his family's library was like; for that matter, she wondered about his family too. Would he look in on them while he was in the city? She had not seen a member of her own family in many years.
As she watched, though, she thought she saw an odd flush on the mage's face. Her voice grew concerned.
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "Are you well, Fer? You look as though you have a fever."
-
Marlow was never quite comfortable in such extravagent surroundings. Felt wrong, and guards looked at him funny. But he wasn't about to disappear, so he just worked with it. At around this time, he managed to find where Carmen was.
(https://i.imgur.com/lKndQnl.png)"...You know, I never pegged him as a prince." he said. It was a conversation opener, if nothing else...
-
Carmen was in her study, sitting with her elbows on her desk and her head resting on both hands. She opened her eyes when Marlow snuck in.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): An important piece of information that I could not disclose to you at the time, for reasons obvious. Carmen let out a heavy sigh and sat upright.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): I assume you're here for your payment?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/lKndQnl.png)"Partly. The pay would be nice. Second was to ask something. You know he's not going to stick around here, right? Royal blood or no, deep down he's a ship's captain. You have any plans for when he takes off?"
-
Lysander frowned, crossing his arms and staring at the ground, trying not to let the captain see the hurt flashing across his face.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"I... I see. Well. Good to know that you don't need my services anymore I guess. I'll be taking my leave then."
He turned and fled, not running but walking away as quickly as was politely possible. So he was to be tossed aside by the captain then. The man who had saved him and who he had pledged to help keep safe no longer needed him. Fine. That was life he supposed. After all, he'd already lost one family. What was losing one more in the long run?
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Yes, you earned it well. Carmen got up to grab a bag off a shelf with an undisclosed amount of gold, ignoring the second question for a moment.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): I didn't know how any of this was going to turn out. I was entirely focused on the mission, to fulfill Titus'... , the King's request. Ethan just happens to be one of those people that turns every expectation upside down. And what about you? Did you tell him that you were informing me? Are you planning to keep sailing with him? If not... I could offer you a job.
In his escape, Lysander met with a certain steward.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): Hey, you're young Ethan's helper, aren't you? Lysander, right? What's the rush?
-
Lysander looked up and then quickly bowed slightly.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"I'm sorry, sir. I didn't mean to be rushing. Well. No, I did. But I just... Well. The prince said something that he didn't realize was insensitive probably. I just needed to get away. I uh... Well. I'm not really his helper. Not anymore, no. Just until things get settled I think. Then... I may work for the Lady Gawen, I guess."
-
Paon made a deep "hmm" of understanding.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): I see what happened. They sprung the news on you, right?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/lKndQnl.png)"I've not told him. Hope you'll forgive me on that, figured it would be best to wait until we were in port and he couldn't throw me over the side. Although, in a bit he might have the authority to execute me instead." He laughed a bit at the dark humor, before continuing.
(https://i.imgur.com/lKndQnl.png)"As for sailing with him... Well, the job's done, but I've honestly been thinking about it. Seems like what we've been doing lately has been real important, and not just for the guys in charge."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Tell him while he can't do either, or you'll have to take the secret to the grave. Carmen smirked before returning to her somber expression.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): I just don't understand why it's so important to him. He's nothing like Titus was... even before all this happened. What even happened? Did he see something when he was lost in the water? Did whoever find him do something? Did he really forget all about his family? His twin brother? If Titus had lived longer, he would have been heartbroken, and died all the same... there was nothing to gain from this. Carmen slumped on her chair.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Apologies, I shouldn't be burdening you with this. You'll get plenty of time to make the choice where to.work.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Just... Poorly timed communication. I guess. I just... need to tell someone what's going on. So they know."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): Did they ask you what you wanted, or did you ask them why the decision? In my experience, the first person you need to help is yourself. I don't think you were looking for me to talk about it, but I hope you can help youself so you can help either Prince Ethan or Lady Gawen. And speaking of helping, this might help.
Paon dropped a ring on Lysander's hands, but it wasn't just any ring.
Lysander gets Guiding Ring!
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Ah... Well. It's... what they thought was for the best, I'm sure. But... Thank you for this gift, sir. I appreciate it."
He took the ring, gave the man another small bow, and then set off again. Finding a small, quiet, deserted courtyard, he sat down on a bench and turned the ring over in his hand. It was an intricate thing, engraved with runes that spoke to something inside of him. Something...
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Need to help myself first, huh? So what do I want then? A family, friends..."
Unbidden, Ashlyn's face popped into his head. If he was leaving the crew after all of this... Maybe it was time he talked to her about those moments, quiet and strong, that neither of them had acknowledged. Maybe... Maybe that was a way to help himself, to get some confidence and find his path.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"I'll see this through. I want to help, I'm not going to abandon my crew just because the captain thinks it best I leave after all of this. After can be decided after. Now, I need to be helping people. People I care about. And to do that... I need to be stronger."
With that declaration, he slipped the ring onto his right hand. A flash of light startled him as he did, but it soon settled into a slight glow that he barely noticed. Time to find Ashlyn...

(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"Oh, great, he has a track record. Well, I suppose that if there's any consolation, it's that we're likely to be with him a while more and can hopefully advise him AWAY from doing spur-of-the-moment, wildly destructive things. And hope not to get threatened with death again, at any rate."
Amberly's asking him if he had a fever made him clasp his hands to his face. Oh, this sort of thing was probably going to become commonplace, wasn't it? Fer couldn't help but think that he was the exact wrong person to try and teach these sort of social intricacies. He sighed, but externally, not internally.
(https://i.imgur.com/BSikrIo.png):"...erh... no... I'm... I admit I'm just somewhat embarrassed."
-
Ashlyn was still in her room sitting at the desk and staring down a mostly blank sheet of parchment. She held a quill in her hand, though it had long since dried out since she had first wetted it. She wanted to send a letter to her parents, to let them know she was safe and, at least until Ethan bailed, working for a prince, but she just couldn't start the dumb thing and she couldn't really figure out why. Ruffling her hair in frustration she put the quill down.
(https://i.imgur.com/dPdiLpL.png)"Ugh! Why is this so friggin' hard? It's not like I can't read or write. Maybe a walk'll be enough to clear my head..."
Now where to go? The castle was so big she could probably walk around for hours. Well, it's not like she was needed anywhere. For now the gardens would be good enough for her.
-
As Lysander started to leave the courtyard, he spotted Ashlyn walking towards the gardens. A small hesitation, then he pushed forward, waving.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Ashlyn! I was just about to come looking for you actually. I uh... There are two things I wanted to talk to you about. Important things. Do you have a moment?"
-
As she passed by one of the courtyards Ashyln caught sight of Lysander waving at her out of the corner of her eye. She stopped, letting him approach.
(https://i.imgur.com/TGY5s4P.png)"Oh, heya Lys. I was just- Well, it's not really that important if you've got things you need to talk about. Whatcha need?
-
Lysander hesitated. It seemed like she had been doing something but... No, she was putting them aside for him. He had to do this.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Here, come on in here. It's nice and quiet here..."
Impulsively he grabbed her hand and lead her into the courtyard he'd just been in, sitting down on the same bench.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"I guess that, well, the two things are sorta... well not really connected but the one is the reason I want to talk about the other? If that makes sense? The first is... Ethan... Ethan told me I wouldn't be going with the crew after all of this is over. Lady Gawen offered me a position in her household, though I don't know if I'm going to take it. It seemed sort of like a pity offer honestly. So I don't know what I'm going to be doing, but whatever it is... It won't be with the crew anymore."
He paused, wanting to see her reaction to this before he continued with the next part. If she didn't care he was leaving...
-
(https://i.imgur.com/TGY5s4P.png)"Um, okay?"
This must be pretty important if Lys was trying to keep it sorta secret. Was this about before? Things were still kinda awkward since then... Unfortunately for Ashlyn, the memory made her conscious that Lysander had grabbed her hand, causing her to flush a bit. Thankfully she managed to get herself under control by the time they sat down, the blush gone.
(https://i.imgur.com/dPdiLpL.png)"He what!?" Ashlyn shot to her feet. "I know he's the captain an' all, but who the hell does he think he is!? I oughta go find him and beat his ass..." She would've, too, if it wouldn't have meant leaving Lysander alone after he'd sat her down to talk. She huffed and sat back down.
(https://i.imgur.com/TGY5s4P.png)"Er, sorry about that. But if you don't work for Gawen then what're you gonna do? You don't seem like you have any ideas..." Ashlyn knew what she wanted him to do, but she wasn't about to force Lysander into it.
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "Well, we've been able to talk him down from doing such rash things so far. Perhaps, with everything that's going on, he'll be more amenable to advice in the future."
Fer's admission surprised the nun. She wasn't sure what the mage had to be embarrassed about, nor was she certain why her own face seemed to be warming slightly.
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "...you are embarrassed? Whatever for? Did I do something wrong?"
-
That was the reaction Lysander should have expected. He hadn't, but he should have. Thankfully she settled back down as he shook his head.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"He didn't explain, no. Though, to be fair, I didn't ask. I just... Left. I didn't trust myself to respond well, you know?"
And there it was. He hesitated, not sure how to do this. Probably best to just push through.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"As for what I want to do... Hhhh. No. I don't have any better ideas but... The thing is. I... I think that what I want is to be where you are. I... We've both been avoiding this, you know? After that one time... But... I care about you. A lot. And the thought of losing you because Ethan doesn't want me around anymore... That hurt more than anything."
-
Fer put his hands to his temples and massaged the, trying and failing to control the reddening of his face. Oh, this was going to be the difficult part, but he was beginning to suspect that if he didn't deal with it now, it would come back to haunt him.
(https://i.imgur.com/BSikrIo.png):"Okay... Amberly..."
He had to stop and put his face in his hands again for a moment. Oh, man.
(https://i.imgur.com/BSikrIo.png):"Do you remember when you tried to grab my hand earlier? Do you... erh, do you know what that gesture means?"
-
Amberly was suddenly quite glad that her veil covered most of her face, as her earlier thoughts about that same gesture came sneaking back.
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHzm2TXy/amberly-veilce.png): "I...well...you had seemed so distraught at the time. I assumed it was a gesture of...solidarity, I guess you could call it. Companionship. A way to show that you were not alone.
"...oh dear. I did do something wrong, didn't I?"
-
It had just been a knee-jerk reaction, but as Lysander explained more she really thought about clobbering Ethan the next time she saw him. There was no reason for Ethan to kick him out, he hadn't done anything wrong. It was just selfish! Lysander should get to choose what he wanted to do, not have it decided for him!
(https://i.imgur.com/dPdiLpL.png)"Probably for the best you just left, then. Didn't get a chance to burn your end of the bridge."
She quieted down, letting Lysander finish before opening her mouth. She needed the time, to be honest; she hadn't been expecting a confession. Sure she felt the same, but...!
(https://i.imgur.com/XzJbIbn.png)"I... um, what?" Great response ya idiot. Was that really the best she could give him? He'd worked up the courage to tell her and that was what she gave him? "Er, I mean...!" Ugh, this was pathetic. If she couldn't say it she'd just have to show him. Suddenly grabbing his collar, Ashlyn pulled Lysander close and pressed her lips to his. When she broke away she didn't look at him, suddenly interested in the ground.
(https://i.imgur.com/XzJbIbn.png)"Th-That should... tell you how I feel. I don't want to lose you either, Lys. So you better stick around, you hear me?"
-
Fer sighed and nodded gravely.
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"I had begun to suspect you hadn't meant the usual import of it. Ah, Amberly, thanks for the consideration, but..."
(https://i.imgur.com/BSikrIo.png):"H-how do I put it... ah..."
(https://i.imgur.com/BSikrIo.png):"Uhm... well..."
Fer let out a breath.
(https://i.imgur.com/BSikrIo.png):"I apologize, but... erh, it is usually a... well... it is usually a r-romantic gesture to, uhm, hold hands."
-
After wandering aimlessly, Vortai spotted Claude and consequently at least a small part of the crew so perhaps now he could sate his curiosity about the situation.
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "Excuse my intrusion...but I must know. If Ethan is truly going to claim the throne, what will happen to the rest of us?"
-
Any response Lysander might have had fled his head when Ashlyn suddenly kissed him. He barely had a chance to react to that before she'd broken it off, staring back down at the ground. He stared at her for a few long seconds before sliding until they were snuggled tight, and he wrapped his arm around her.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"I... Good. I had hoped that you felt like this too. I'm... Well... I'm not going to leave you alone, ok? If I leave, I... I'm taking you with me. We'll find our way together, ok?"
He hesitated again before quickly kissing her cheek. This had gone so much better than he could have hoped.
-
Ashlyn's blush strengthened when Lysander scooted closer and wrapped his arm around her, but it did get her to look up and return the gesture, holding him close.
(https://i.imgur.com/XzJbIbn.png)"I... Yeah, me neither. Wherever we go, we'll be together. I... wouldn't want it any different."
After his kiss, she leaned her head on his shoulder, relaxing against the slightly taller boy.
(https://i.imgur.com/8cygAgq.png)"Lys, I'm... really glad I met you."
-
Lavinia crossed her arms and leaned against one of the garden exits.
A while ago, she had spotted someone walking in the gardens after all - Lysander, not with Ethan, but with Ashlyn. Not an uncommon sight, but she'd thought that he'd been helping Ethan out with the political matters. Either that was over or something else was going on.
Anyway, she'd decided not to follow them. Wasn't in her to read a room most of the time, but it just seemed like a time to give them privacy.
Besides, now that she'd really been thinking... Claude and Lysander had been putting a lot of effort in lately. Ethan'd been leaning on them, anyhow. Even if Claude was the one that was good with money, that didn't mean she couldn't put in a little effort herself, get a start on making sure they had enough supplies for whatever came next. With all that was going on, all this princely stuff and whatever might change in the future, she could at least focus on the here and now.
Castle first, see if they could get anything from those people given Ethan's new status. Then into town. Seemed as good a plan as any.
Go look around for an armory in the castle.
-
Amberly's awkward but improving way with words failed her at this moment in the most complete way possible.
(https://i.postimg.cc/7LMrCZ3q/amberly-veilmegablush.png): "R-r-romant--! That's...cannot...truly...foolish...didn't...forgive...hands...um."
(https://i.postimg.cc/C5wXPwg2/amberly-veilprayer.png) The nun clasped her hands together in front of her face, not in prayer but in trying to stem the flow of gibberish and to take a steadying breath. She was a disciple of the Old Gods! She could handle this. Whatever "this" was.
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "...I see. As you've certainly guessed, members of my order learn very little about the ways in which people might, er, show affection for others. I apologize for my carelessness."
Amberly looked down at this point, unable to meet Fer's eyes any longer. She watched her hands wringing together of their own accord. She was so stupid! How could she have been so stupid? Fer, understandably, probably wanted nothing more to do with her at this point. She should leave, yes. Or melt into the floor and vanish forever, that was better.
-
Fer looked upwards with no small amount of awkwardness as Amberly turned an interesting shade of pink and descended into babbling gibberish, and he remained looking that way afterwards, rather unable to meet the nun's eyes.
(https://i.imgur.com/BSikrIo.png):"E-erm, it's... it's quite al-alright. Just... um... just so you know. You know. um. Yeah. I-it's understandable? Yeah."
-
Claude sighed after that scene.
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "Ethan, listen to me."
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "You either improve your way with words or you might one day find that no one is around to hear them. This is honest advice from a friend, and it's valid whether you're a king or not. Please keep it in mind."
After that was done, Claude left while thinking back to the orders he'd placed at at the capital's armory... and the millinery. He decided to check on them later and headed to the armory instead. That was when he stumbled onto Vortai.
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "We will still take care of the matter with the treasures, King Ethan temporarily on the throne or not. After that, life will theoretically return to normal."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/Cnd3wQL.png) "I am not sure what is classified as 'normal' around here at this point. Ethan has a very...peculiar way of handling serious problems."
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "But yes...the treasures, I nearly forgot about this other task we had on our hands. But I am still pondering about what comes next, if we were part of a very odd crew before, and it is certain that things will not return to the way they used to be."
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/nrpc328H/amberly-veilhappy.png): "Y-yes, of course! A simple mistake. Hahaha. Ha."
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "...so. Um. What were you reading, before I...well, ruined this day?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "We will make do... And just where did you get your armor from?"
-
(http://i61.tinypic.com/2ed9gfc.png):"Erh, please don't take this as an insult, but... there are more groundshaking things today that ruined it, if anything."
He paused.
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"And... erm, I'm not really sure. I didn't... actually manage to read a word of it."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Tell him while he can't do either, or you'll have to take the secret to the grave. Carmen smirked before returning to her somber expression.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): I just don't understand why it's so important to him. He's nothing like Titus was... even before all this happened. What even happened? Did he see something when he was lost in the water? Did whoever find him do something? Did he really forget all about his family? His twin brother? If Titus had lived longer, he would have been heartbroken, and died all the same... there was nothing to gain from this. Carmen slumped on her chair.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Apologies, I shouldn't be burdening you with this. You'll get plenty of time to make the choice where to.work.
(https://i.imgur.com/lKndQnl.png)"It's fine. Always nice to have options." he said. "What are you going to be doing? Assuming that's not some super classified info."
While he didn't comment, he did wonder what had happened to Ethan... it was good that Titus hadn't had much longer to know the man. He wouldn't outright say it just then but he was wondering if Ethan had gone mad at some point - he was certainly violent enough for it.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "...but I'm good with words." Ethan crossed his arms, staring at Gawen who lagged behind in escapist department and was still around.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "I say the thing, I mean the thing, I want the thing to be done. How's that bad?"
-

"Ethan. You told the boy - who is, for some reason, quite loyal to you - that you wanted no more to do with him. I can't imagine he's taking it well. You could have told him what you told me instead of just dismissing him." She shook her head. "Consider how you and your crew reacted when I said what I meant without explaining."
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"Now, I'd best find Lysander. . . and do so before my father finds me. You'd be wise to think more on Claude's advice; if you're truly unsure of how to follow it, I'm sure Paon would be overjoyed to to hear you'd like a lesson in diplomacy."
-
Ethan grumbled somewhat, placed his hands on his waist, and stared down the hallway.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "Right. I did that. Hrhm." There was a moment of thought.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "I will talk with him again. Explain things. I will try to be more thorough." And so Ethan went, staring through the windows and checking corridors, until he finally happened upon the two lovebirds in the courtyard, sitting on the bench.
Ethan fake-coughed very loudly to get some attention.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "I need to talk with you and explain... the thing... with you. Your future or the lack of it on my ship." Ethan then tried to start his tirade, but thought about what Claude and Gawen said.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "If you're willing to listen to what I have to say, of course."
-
Gawen watched Ethan leave with a dubious expression. She thought he meant well in regard to Lysander at least, but she wondered how well the man would actually handle it. Certainly, he hadn't exactly demonstrated a talent for handling delicate situations before, but perhaps he would actually manage to salvage this one. She had business to take care of, though.
She headed toward the stables, searching for someone she could requisition a horse from. She'd been meaning to track down a proper war horse for a while; she had a riding horse, but the beast wasn't exactly suited to charging at enemies while armored. Gawen also hoped to not find Aeron. Her father was less than pleased at her gallivanting around the countryside and "causing trouble,"' and would certainly have several questions as to what she'd been doing lately and why she was here.
-
Once the matters regarding the former king and Ethan cooled down a bit, Angelica went off to tend to her horse. She decided that spending some time tending to Marcus after all this time would do him some good, and would also give her a bit of a break. After some time passed, a familiar face started to come by.

"Gawen, hello! What brings you around to the stables?
-
@Lavinia
The master armorer informed Lavinia that his craft was restricted to the castle's guards and the Royal Guard. However, the Court Steward had requested two things: that he fulfill a single crafting request for a high end weapon for Lavinia or another from her group, and a special crest that he gave to her.
Lavinia gets Knight's Crest and a voucher for any physical weapon up to B rank!
@Marlow
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): I'm considering retiring if Ethan manages to screw things up enough in his short reign.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Regardless, if you find yourself in trouble with Ethan or anyone else, don't be afraid to come to me for help.
@Gawen and Angelica
Immediately after Gawen arrived at the stables, so did Steward Paon.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): Ah, Lady Gawen and Lady Angelica. Good to see you now. Are you busy at the moment?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"The same thing that brings most people to stables, I'd imagine," Gawen replied to Angelica, before Paon prompted her.
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"Not particularly, just searching for a destrier that is both for sale and sturdy."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): Is that the case? I could provide one such steed as part of your reward. Paon cleared his throat subtly. And your father, Sir Aeron, is looking for you. What should I tell him in case he manages to find me again before you?
-
Gawen made a face before sighing.
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"What I would like to tell him is that I am handling more important things than another endless dinner with cousin Blodwen and whatever horrible suitor he's cooked up for me this time, but I somehow doubt he'd be pleased with that answer. No, just tell him where to find me, I suppose. I've been avoiding him long enough."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "We will make do... And just where did you get your armor from?"
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "A deal was struck. The armor is part of the negotiation."
-
Amberly marveled internally at all the different ways she could eat crow in a single conversation. Conceding defeat, the nun stood to go.
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHzm2TXy/amberly-veilce.png): "I should let you get back to it, then. See you later."
-
Lysander flinched as Ethan showed up, but didn't let go of Ashlyn. Staring up at the man, he almost snapped at him, but then sighed.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Sure. Say whatever you need to."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "Right. Look, I'm not dismissing you because you lack skill, but because you're... a bad privateer." Ethan considered.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "Well, not a bad privateer in terms of your combat prowess, but..." Ethan let out a sigh.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "Look, Lysander, you're a nice kid. And that's why you make a bad privateer. You're more of a protect-your-friends kinda hero boy, not a ruthless seafaring murderer."
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "That's why one time I considered simply having you leave the crew. Because of that I spoke with Gawen who seemed to be agreeing to have you serve her family instead. It's a job on land, and I assume with all the duties you had on ship, all the comforts of a landdwelling life, and much less murdering." He rubbed his chin.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "Unless she forgot to tell me something..."
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "So, yeah. I thought Gawen had already told you about it, which apparently didn't happen." Ethan crossed his arms.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "You're going with him, aren't you." He looked down at Ashlyn.
-
Lysander shook his head.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"You really don't get it, do you? You don't get what the crew means to me. The people who saved me, who gave me a home, a family again. I don't care about the violence, I care about the people. I want to help save all of you like you all saved me. I don't think that makes me bad for what we do. But. If you don't want me in the crew, you don't want me in the crew, simple as that. I won't stay where I'm not wanted."
-
Ethan scoffed.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "You're right, I don't understand, no. Besides, at the rate everyone's suddenly finding things - and people - to go after, the crew will be soon reduced to one person."
-
He really was that daft, wasn't he?
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"You're an idiot. The only reason the crew is falling apart is because you're pushing them away with the way you've been acting lately. Come on Ashlyn. Lets go."
He didn't know where he wanted to go, but he knew that he wanted away from this conversation.
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): Very well. I'll do so... after you've chosen a horse. But before that, if you'll excuse me for a second.
Paon turned to Angelica.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): From one retainer to another. The path may be difficult, and I'm sure there will be times where you have to rise up to the challenge caring for your liege presents. That's why I present you with this, so you can go above and beyond.
Angelica gets Faith Icon!
-
Ethan watched the two walk away.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) No, Ethan, shouting that you 'will hire another crew' won't help. Listen to Claude's advice. Think before you speak.
And so, Ethan, having thought it over, decided to not say anything, for once. He turned around, walking in opposite direction from Lysander, and left for his chambers at the palace.
Unfortunately, he wasn't going to stay quiet near the guards.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "Where's the guy, Paon? The old one."
-
The guards pointed Ethan in the direction they saw the Court Steward go, leading to a succession of pointing guards until the captain turned prince reached Paon in the stables.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "Great." Ethan stared at Gawen, and then just shrugged.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "Paon, I assume you have been at the palace for decades, yes? You good with writing speeches, country history, and the genealogy of royal family, right?"
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): Yes, of course. What do you need my help for?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "My coronation speech, a listing of royal relatives with a claim, and my abdication speech."
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "In that order."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): Once I'm finished helping Lady Gawen I will start working on those. Anything else?
-
Ethan blinked.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "Yes. How are you taking this so easily?"
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "I just asked you to help me write down words for when I flee Alvada."
-
Paon stopped in his tracks to turn and face Ethan straight on.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): Do you think I can allow myself the pleasure of taking time to grief the loss of the King that I had to raise and tutor after his entire family were lost at sea? You aren't prepared at all to do these things, but I have practically ruled this kingdom until Titus was. I cannot falter on Alvada.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "...are you related to the royal family, perchance?"
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): I am not. Though from a distant noble family, I was a close friend of your father. With my skills I earned the position of Court Steward, and for that friendship I earned being the godfather of your eldest brother.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "There go my hopes."
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "Though I've decided not to appoint anyone - you will do that. If you were able to rule the place in my brother's place, and then keep everything working when he was on the throne, you're the best qualified to find my replacement. Pity the laws doesn't look kindly on usurpation."
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "Is six months enough?"
-
Paon sighed.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): It should be. I'll try to compile a suitable list of successors and review each of them as soon as possible so we can all be done with this as soon as possible.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "Splendid."
-
Gawen sighed and shook her head. For a ship's captain, Ethan seemed to have precious little sense of duty or loyalty. Perhaps that glimmer of a good man she'd seen was just an illusion, or just buried so far down as to be inaccessible. She listened to the conversation as she moved further into the stables, pausing in front of each stall to inspect the horses within. The noblewoman eventually made a complete lap of the area before settling on a sizable, muscular blood bay stallion, who passed the additional test of attempting to nip at Gawen when she approached until one of the stablehands told the horse that it was okay.
After a moment more with the horse to start the process of getting the animal to recognize her, she returned to Paon to inform him of his choice, describing the horse to him (as she didn't know its name.)
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"I would help, if I wasn't clearly biased in this regard."
-
@Marlow
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): I'm considering retiring if Ethan manages to screw things up enough in his short reign.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Regardless, if you find yourself in trouble with Ethan or anyone else, don't be afraid to come to me for help.
He had no idea if he'd read her right. Usually, he was good at reading people, but something about Carmen made it difficult.
(https://i.imgur.com/lKndQnl.png)"Noted. I'll be sure to do that. Might take you up on the job offer at some point, too, although I'd want to know more about it... maybe over drinks?"
-
Fer sighed as Amberly left the library in a bit of a hurry, and then he leaned forwards into the desk with a soft thump.
(http://i61.tinypic.com/2ed9gfc.png):"Oh, that's... going to haunt me for a while, isn't it? Oh, man, and I've got to be able to regularly talk to her, too... I... guess I'll see what happens, though."
He stewed in silence for a few moments, before he looked up and around him -- he had kind of just automatically come to the library as a reflex, without any real reason to come over. It had been without any thought... but that made sense. A library was his home, after all, and he was in Duo Alvada...
(http://i58.tinypic.com/2vty5hy.png):"I've been putting it off for long enough now, haven't I?"
Sighing, Fer pushed his chair out, put it back neatly, put the book back on the shelves, and then headed for the back exit to leave into the city.
-
@Gawen (and Angelica?)
Paon made sure the knight's choice was assigned to her to be transferred ownership as soon as possible.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): A fine choice. Don't concern yourself too much with this matter, Lady Gawen. Not only you have other important issues to address... I'd rather sacrifice my sanity doing this than let it get to anyone else.
@Marlow
Carmen's smirk widened.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Of course, anytime I'm not getting hounded by various nobles and knights of many houses about the immediate future of the kingdom. I'll try to sneak out soon enough.
@Fer
The guards were nice and let Fer back out the way Carmen brought them in the first time around. One of them offered to escort Fer around town if he wanted protection, following him out of castle grounds.
-

"I appreciate it. I'll make sure to use it to the best of my abilities," Angelica remarks with a smile.
Angelica promotes to Holy Guard
Meanwhile, as the continued matters regarding Ethan come up, she decides to give Paon some words of encouragement.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"Good luck with handling all this. I get the feeling that this is going to become a big mess later, so try not to burn yourself out too fast."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"I appreciate your efforts, Paon, but I fear I will worry nonetheless. Alvada faces trying times; I would not be much of a noble at all if her future did not occupy my thoughts."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): And I appreciate your concerns for my well-being. Expect Sir Aeron to drop by any moment now.
Paon nodded to both women and Ethan and left.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "...Have fun." Ethan nodded to Gawen and left immediately.
-
Gawen sighed mightily. She wasn't exactly looking forward to this, not that this fact was difficult to see.
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"I suppose challenging my father to a duel instead of a lecture is out of the question?" she asked Angelica.
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281667000795143/Basedtroub-ec4.png)
"I can't say I'd recommend it all things considered. Though perhaps the circumstances might allow for you to get through this without issue?" Angelica remarks with a half smile before sighing deeply.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281667000795143/Basedtroub-ec4.png)
"At the very least, I'm here for support if things get messy."
-
Lavinia nodded at the master armorer, closing her fingers around the crest.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Thanks. I'll be back with a request later, then."
She turned and left, but on the way she spotted two people she knew in the halls.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Oh? Claude, Vortai - Ethan's done with you for today?" Well, with Claude, anyway. She hadn't stopped walking - actually she'd only slowed down a bit. "I'm heading to town to see if we need any supplies. Just catch up with me later to discuss the prices, if you want."
With a curt wave, she passed them and was gone. She'd definitely catch up with them and the others later if they didn't catch up with her. Besides, she was taking a short detour first, to check on a few other things... but then, into town as she'd planned.
Go look for a weapon shop in town.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "Such a hurry. Should we follow her? After all it seems you two seem to share some sort of...bond."
-
Ashlyn opened her eyes as Ethan approached, sitting up. If Lysander hadn't kept holding onto her she may have stood up and done something she wouldn't be able to take back. Instead, she ended up glaring at Ethan while the captain described his entirely selfish and well-meaning, if misguided, reasoning for kicking Lysander out of the crew. She almost didn't respond before Lys dragged her away, probably for the better that it was kept brief.
(https://i.imgur.com/dPdiLpL.png)"Yeah, I am. Lets get oughta here."
Lysander didn't seem to have any destination in mind, so Ashlyn took the lead and opted to just walk the halls of the castle.
(https://i.imgur.com/TGY5s4P.png)"Hey, Lys, I know we talked big, but I don't think ya actually wanna leave. I don't wanna either, the crew's like a family to me too."
(https://i.imgur.com/dPdiLpL.png)"Um, but if ya wanna take a break from this topic, that's fine too."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"I appreciate it, Angelica. I should make more of a point of expressing that; I'm not quite sure how you've managed to tolerate my shenanigans for so long."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"What does it matter what I want? The captain has clearly decided what's happening, so that's that. It's like he doesn't care about my thoughts on the matter at all!"
He sighed, reaching out to grab her hand as they walked.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"But... you're right. We should probably talk about something else. I'll just start yelling otherwise. Hey, I know. Why don't we go on a date? Go look at some shops, spend some time together, just us? Help get our minds off of... everything?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/8cygAgq.png)"Yeah, he's a bit of a jackass."
Ashlyn matched his sigh and shook her head, squeezing Lys' hand.
(https://i.imgur.com/TGY5s4P.png)"A... Date, huh?" Ashlyn paused, either processing or thinking over what Lysander had suggested. After a moment of silence, she smirked.
(https://i.imgur.com/UhubBgn.png)"Yeah! That's a great idea Lys! Anywhere you wanna go?"
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"After a while you get used to it. And besides, the traveling is nice, and you're quite nice to be around as well. When you aren't getting into barfights anyways," Angelica remarks, laughing a bit towards the end.
-
Not long after someone else appeared in the stables.
(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/351806856957526016/590602651343781898/AeronCawallader.png): Hello, Gawen. You too, Miss Angelica. I don't see Blake with you, what happened to him?
Lavinia found many lavish shops in town after the guards pointed her towards the commercial district, but then she realized she had no money! Sure, looking was free, but what purpose did it have if you couldn't eventually purchase even the cheapest of weapons?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"Blake? We departed without him, as far as I know he was never intended to be with us at all." Gawen side-eyed her father for a moment. "I'm quite capable of managing myself with just my own staff, Father."
-
Aeron grumbled but continued.
(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/351806856957526016/590602651343781898/AeronCawallader.png): Did you assemble the group you were with during the funeral, then? They looked a bit... rough.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"No. We travel together by... more or less happenstance, really." She wasn't certain whether it was wise to be spreading the news of the royal artifacts, even if it was only to her own father. "A group of bandits attacked a village we were both passing through, and they had their own means of transport."
-
(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/351806856957526016/590602651343781898/AeronCawallader.png): You were fortunate then. And you seem to have brought some peace to the late King in his last moments, according to Paon, so that deserves some commendation. Did you get the adventuring out of your system?
-
Gawen resisted the urge to sigh.
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"Not quite. I've still some business that's yet to be addressed." Figuring that it might get the man off of her back for a moment, she decided to drop a morsel of what was going on. "It would be ill-advised to disclose the exact nature of it to anyone not involved, but some of it has to do with the surviving royal family. I'm sure you'd much rather we have that connection than not, no?"
-
Aeron sighed.
(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/351806856957526016/590602651343781898/AeronCawallader.png): Unless you're marrying the next King I'd rather you stay put and not cause too much trouble until the announcement. Is that too much to ask?
-
Amberly wandered through the castle, feeling depressed after her conversation with her fellow scholar. Part of her wanted to stay far from Fer for the rest of their time here, or possibly forever, if it'd avoid another awkward conversation. At the same time she also wanted to try again, see if maybe now that the worst of it had passed they could actually have a good time together. It didn't seem impossible.
The nun shook her head and decided to head down to the stables. She'd always been fond of animals, and perhaps tending to some of the royal horses would help sort out her thoughts. That was one of the nice things about animals: they didn't judge, and kept their silence.
Making her way down to the castle courtyard, Amberly was surprised to see the stable occupied. An older man, who looked extremely familiar, was speaking to two of her traveling companions. Miss Angelica, and Lady...
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "Cawallader!" the nun squeaked in astonishment, hand over her veiled mouth. Oh, this was shaping up to be a wonderful day.
-
Gawen couldn't stop the faint tinge of disgust that showed on her face at the thought. At least Ethan wasn't physically repulsive, but that was a duty she would only do if there was no other good alternative.
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"The nature of the business precludes that, I assure you. You'll get no trouble from me." Around this point, Amberly made herself known with a startled sounding squeak, eliciting a confused glance from the heiress.
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)". . . Yes, it's me, Amberly. Strange to see me out of my armor, I know," she said dryly.
-
As Gawen's father arrived, she briefly looked away a bit at the mention of Blake, but otherwise listened into the conversation. It took all her might to not laugh after Aeron suggested that Gawen marry the new king, considering who he is. Afterwards, a certain nun happened to arrive to break things up a bit.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"Oh Amberly, hello. What brings you out here?"
-
Aeron turned towards the newcomer, slightly forgetting manners.
(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/351806856957526016/590602651343781898/AeronCawallader.png): Who are you? One of Gawen's newfound companions?
-
Why? What had she done to displease the Old Gods so thoroughly? Well, this was one challenge that she refused to shy away from.
(https://i.postimg.cc/PJdPrvW5/amberly-veilangry.png): "I...I came down here to see the animals. Not this particular one, though."
-
As Aeron slowly realized who Amberly really was, he turned again to face Gawen, with anger in his face and his voice.
(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/351806856957526016/590602651343781898/AeronCawallader.png): Amber- You knew, didn't you? How did you find her? Who told you she even existed?!
-
Gawen looked between Aeron and Amberly for a moment, confusion clearly evident on her face.
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"Father, I have no idea what you are talking about, or why you're angry with me for finding someone that has nothing to do with us." Her expression faded to one of defensive irritation tinged with disappointment. "Unless you're telling me she does. There aren't many reasons a man of your standing would want his family to not know of a person's existence."
-
Amberly crossed her arms, wondering if the man would dare admit the truth. This wasn't exactly an encounter she had ever wanted...but she had no intention of backing down now.
-
Meanwhile in town, Lavinia stretched slowly, beginning to examine all the shops around her to figure out where she wanted to go first.
She might not have any money on her, but she'd always just intended to look around first. She wasn't about to purchase anything before scouting out all the prices and probably getting the others' input at some point.
Unless... they didn't have any money at all? You'd think Claude would have made sure they had some sort of emergency funds accounted for, right?
give weapon list anyway
-
One of the guards offered to escort Fer around the city -- it wasn't actually necessary, as he'd grown up in Duo Alva and knew exactly where his destination was, but he accepted it anyhow; it was just a nice thing for the man to do, and Fer wouldn't reject a little kindness like that. Still, once Fer actually began to approach the Jasso library, he politely asked the guard to finish his escorting services and return to the castle.
After all, it was family matters that Fer would be probably dealing with inside that library, and Fer didn't want to expose anyone else to the tensions and the business of his family.
Still, he had to deal with it himself sooner or later, so he moved to the doors of his family home.
-
Aeron's eyes darted around, trying to avoid looking at either of the three women present.
(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/351806856957526016/590602651343781898/AeronCawallader.png): ...Nevermind that. I must have confused her with someone else. The veil makes it hard to tell. I must attend to other matters right now. Aeron hastily tried to retreat.
-
Seeing Aeron's actions towards the group and his suspicious behavior, Angelica decided to politely move towards him and grab his shoulder.
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281660117811200/Basedtroub-ec.png)
"Sir, if I may. It seems that you know something about our friend here. And given your earlier outburst to Gawen regarding the matter, I think it wouldn't be right for you to just leave without an explanation. You understand right?" Angelica asks with a smile, but with a tone implying that she wants answers.
-
Aeron shaked Angelica off.
(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/351806856957526016/590602651343781898/AeronCawallader.png): Let me go! I don't have to explain anything to any of you!
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/PJdPrvW5/amberly-veilangry.png): "'Other matters'? Is that the name of your newest plaything, Father?"
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281658209533953/Basedtroub-4.png)
"Wait, Father?" Angelica's eyes dart to Aeron, then to Amberly, then back to Aeron. "Sir, I think we need to have a talk about this. Because it seems that there's something you have to explain to all of us."
-
(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/351806856957526016/590602651343781898/AeronCawallader.png): Well, why should you believe her anyways? She could have mistaken me for her actual father, or just be lying!
-
Gawen very nearly rolled her eyes at the man.
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"You referred to her by name, Father. I am not a stupid woman. For that same reason, I must wonder why you're trying so hard to avoid this conversation. You would not be the first noble to leave bastard children behind, though I can't imagine Mother would be particularly happy to learn this." She glanced at Amberly for a moment. So the nun was her sister, then? That was somewhat odd to think about, though at the very least it was a reason to get to know her better.
-
Aeron grumbled, but didn't try to flee.
(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/351806856957526016/590602651343781898/AeronCawallader.png): She's... the result of a mistake I made long ago. The last thing I need right now, when there's a very important issue about succession and claims will be flying around like crazy, is another rebellious daughter causing trouble and mining the reputation of the Cawallader name!
-
Amberly's expression softened as she looked gratefully at Angelica and Gawen, some of her tension easing as they seemed to believe her. Still, as she looked back towards Aeron and heard his flimsy excuses she became angry again. Hearing the man call her a mistake wasn't even a shock.
(https://i.postimg.cc/PJdPrvW5/amberly-veilangry.png): "You've done quite enough to mine your family's reputation all on your own! Your daughter has fought bravely alongside Captain Ethan to help save the world! I can't pretend to know everything you get up to, but if personal experience is to go by it's nothing good."
-
Well, that particular cat was out of the bag.
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"I've been traveling and doing my best to actually do my duty to protect Alvada's people. The fact that this is bad for our reputation among the rest of the nobility suggests to me that I may not want to be in their good graces at all." She knew why she should be, regardless, but that didn't stop her personal thoughts from spilling out. "And this wouldn't endanger your succession, anyway, unless I were to do something exceptionally stupid and get myself killed."
-
(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/351806856957526016/590602651343781898/AeronCawallader.png): Wouldn't put it past you... What's this about saving the world? Is that what the Court Steward meant when he said you brought peace to the late King?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"There's a great many things going on at the moment, Father, and some of them do not bear discussion among those who don't need to know about them. . . Particularly in the middle of a stable." She refocused her gaze on Aeron, giving the man a sharp look. "Don't think that you can just change the subject, either. Do I have any other wayward siblings I should know of? I'm positive Mother would be just delighted to hear of them."
-
With a loud harrumph, Aeron continued in a more hushed tone.
(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/351806856957526016/590602651343781898/AeronCawallader.png): Don't worry about your mother, there's no more surprises like this headed her way. But this saving the world is an important matter, is it related to the announcement to be made soon?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"It's quite possible. As I've already said, I cannot share all of the information, but what we know is not complete anyway."
-
(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/351806856957526016/590602651343781898/AeronCawallader.png): ...Very well then, I'm satisfied with that. Are you, or will you keep me trapped here any longer?

(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"Trapped? You came here seeking me. Why would I hold you?" Gawen leaned back slightly. "Though, don't think I won't remember everuthing we spoke of."
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/PJdPrvW5/amberly-veilangry.png): "I had no intention of trying to keep you around. Go on, get out of here."
-
(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/351806856957526016/590602651343781898/AeronCawallader.png): A big part of diplomacy is knowing when to back out. Where's that Blake when you need him... Aeron left grumbling further, leaving the women on their own, including the now knowing half-sisters.
-
With the deadbeat father gone, Amberly's anger went with him. She had a hard time looking at the other two women, especially the one she now knew to be a half-sister.
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHzm2TXy/amberly-veilce.png): "...I apologize. That was...not the way I would have chosen for things to go."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "Such a hurry. Should we follow her? After all it seems you two seem to share some sort of...bond."
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "She'll be fine by herself."
-
Gawen watched her father leave, pondering the conversation for a moment before responding to Amberly.
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"I'm not certain if that went better or worse than I was hoping. Certainly, I didn't expect that sort of revelation." She wasn't entirely sure how to continue approaching the topic; the noblewoman had expected to find many things on this trip, but a new sibling was not one of them. "It's strange to think that we've been traveling together for. . . Well, it feels like quite a long time, even if it hasn't been, without knowing this."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "Very well then. I just thought you were going to follow her for another one of those odd competitions, or perhaps assist deciding how to spend our g-"
(https://i.imgur.com/o4DfB6g.png) "Oh-"
(https://i.imgur.com/Cnd3wQL.png) "Right, I forgot we are still...lacking in matters of wealth."
-
(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"It's certainly a surprise, though considering the circumstances we met in makes it more surprising I would think," Angelica mutters, thinking of the chances that two people who unknown to each other were related happened to meet. She then turns to Gawen. "Well, at least things didn't come to a duel in the normal sense, so I suppose you can take comfort in that."
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHzm2TXy/amberly-veilce.png): "I really am sorry. I knew your last name was familiar, but I did not put two and two together until I saw...him, standing next to you. It just hit me all of a sudden." Amberly paused, then forged ahead. "Although if I had known, I'm not sure I would have said anything. How do you tell someone that you're their bastard half-sister?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"Well, it's not as if this is your fault. I certainly didn't expect any of this. . . particularly his reaction. It's unfortunate, his lack of acknowledgement of you, but it is also concerning." She frowned. "I don't know why he would be so angered even if I had known and sought you out."
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "I might know why. He was the one who put me into the nunnery in the first place. It has been my impression that he wanted me kept hidden for my entire life."
(https://i.postimg.cc/PJdPrvW5/amberly-veilangry.png): "He just showed up one day, explained who he was, and dragged me away. I don't even know if my mother knew about his plans."
-
Gawen's frown deepened.
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"That is troubling on a number of fronts. Since he seems to be unwilling to do so, let me be the first to apologize for this. It. . . may have been for my benefit, in a twisted way. Keeping you hidden would prevent issues of succession when he passed away. Though, if that were the case, why would he tell you who you were. . .?" She fell silent, considering the potential implications. The noblewoman was not finding many that were good.
-
Amberly shook her head, helplessly.
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHzm2TXy/amberly-veilce.png): "I don't know. I've had ten years to think it over and I still can't sort out his reasoning."
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "But you mustn't apologize. Aeron Cawallader's actions are not your responsibility, any more than they are mine. The man himself is the only one who can atone for what he's done."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Mmm... Lets just... go look at shops or something? Nothing special, no weapons or anything like that. Just... something simple. Maybe I could get some new clothes or something..."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"Still, it is my family that has wronged you, and should one of us fail in our duty, another must take their place." She paused to consider what she had said for a moment. "Though I suppose it would be our family, then." Gawen went quiet again, returning to her consideration of her father's motivations. He had kept Amberly hidden, but why? Furthermore, he had been angry when he had the impression Gawen sought her out. Was it simple embarrassment, shame about an old mistake, as he had claimed? Or was there some kind of plan for her? It was unlikely, but her training in politicking told her to always examine the unlikely thrice, especially when it came to old noblemen...
-
(https://i.imgur.com/Cnd3wQL.png) "Right, I forgot we are still...lacking in matters of wealth."
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "We have yet to collect our earnings, so there is that."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "Then let us collect them. The others are apparently too busy to remember about the pending payment."
-
Claude sighed and figured there wasn't any harm in looking for that first.
(https://i.imgur.com/4XmL7lY.png) "Let us do that, then."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "Excellent."
Look for the one responsible for the payment.
-
Claude and Vortai found Paon as he returned from the stables.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): Ah, looking for me? I expect this to be either about Ethan or your payment.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "Your guess is correct, we are here for the payment."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): Very well. Follow me to the treasury.
The steward led the two to a well guarded room that lead to the most protected innards of the castle apart from the King's quarters themselves. However, what was inside wasn't what most people would think of a treasury, as it was just a modest desk and chair and a lot of files and papers stacked on shelves. Paon went inside and started taking some notes.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): Give me just a moment to note all the various parts of your reward. Meanwhile, why don't you tell me what are your plans for the future? I know Claude was the prince's quartermaster and has known him for a while, but you... are more of an enigma, one straight out of Xos. Paon observed Vortai's unique outfit.
-
Meanwhile Fer returned to his home, also known as the Jasso library. The entrance lobby was reasonably crowded; after all, Fer's family owned not only a very important library, it was also the main store for magic tomes in Duo Alva.
Fer could see the large selection of magic that were for sale in the bookstore areas of the library, the first one he had to cross.

But he knew where the real important books were: the true library beyond the mere magic tomes, where books full of ancient knowledge and history were safeguarded and studied by a few privileged ones. Such as the rest of the Jasso family.
-
Vortai simply followed for now, without questioning the room's appearance as he somewhat doubt they were going to leave piles of gold or treasure visible to guests. What truly made him confused was Paon's sudden question related to his plans, especially considering they barely knew each other.
(https://i.imgur.com/HhEpNos.png) "An enigma out of Xos? How flattering."
(https://i.imgur.com/nQ0jdpc.png) "I have plans to continue with my research and return to the dunes I came from. There is a lot to be done once I reach what I had been seeking"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "I plan on leaving the seas eventually, but that might take a while still. What causes the curiosity?"
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): I wanted to know if any of you would stay here and help with the... transition, since you have more experience regarding dealing with Ethan. I won't force anyone to stay, of course.
Paon finally went inside a different door that opened to the actual vault of the castle, stacked with neatly organized chests. The regent opened one of them and took out several bags of gold that he deposited on the table.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): There's 12000 gold in total in these bags. Will you need my assistance distributing it?
Party gets 12000 gold!
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "I normally wouldn't impose on you, but we might need some assistance delivering some of the pay to those going shopping, since I have my own matters to take care of."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "I see. Unfortunately I may not stay around to see just how...Different things will get once Ethan claims the throne, but I am sure he will receive assistance from the others."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): Very well, I'll take a look at the stables to see if people are still there.
Paon closed the treasury door behind them and headed to the stables, where predictably the women were still hanging around.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): I take it you dealt with Sir Cawallader just fine then? I've come to deliver the gold part of your reward, but I was told other members of the party were out shopping. Do you know where they might be?
-
Our family? Amberly liked the sound of that, but a lifetime of caution tempered her response.
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "I appreciate the sentiment, truly, but for the time being I believe my association with the Cawalladers should remain hidden. Leaving aside our father's obvious desire to have nothing to do with me, I imagine the news might break your mother's heart, or cause a rift in your family. That would be bad enough under normal circumstances, but given how tense things are with the king's death..."
-
Paon showed up shortly after that, dividing out gold and inquiring about the locations of the others.
(https://i.postimg.cc/MHqK4B2K/amberly-veil.png): "No, I'm afraid not. I was thinking about visiting a magic shop, and it's possible I'll spot some of them while I'm out there. I can hand out their shares of gold when I spot them."
The nun took the gold, bowing as she left the stable, but didn't go directly to the streets. Instead, she made a detour to her room and spent a good few minutes looking at her reflection in the valuable mirror mounted above her dresser. Amberly clutched the icon of the Old Gods that she had picked up somewhere, debated internally for a few moments...then proceeded to change outfits. She lay her veil and hooded robe aside, choosing instead the slightly airier robe and holy headpiece worn by fully ordained nuns. This was a position she had more than earned through her years of service and the trials she had undergone on Captain Ethan's mission. It was one she had thought about assuming for the past week, but the confrontation with her father had finally pushed Amberly to take the plunge. She simply couldn't stand hiding her face any longer. If Lord Cawallader objected? Well, that was just too bad for Lord Cawallader.
By the time Amberly had finished by brushing out her hair and pinning the icon of her faith to her new robe, she barely recognized herself. Her clothes, while hardly revealing, would have sent the Mother Matrons at the Temple of Di into conniptions and screeching for a day-long prayer session. Only the eyes, basically all that could be seen of her in her initiate's robe, looked comfortably familiar.
Amberly hesitated for a few minutes, teetering between accepting her radical decision or diving back into the safe concealment that had been her life for more than a decade. Finally, she squared her shoulders and headed for the door.
(https://i.postimg.cc/NFQxLytK/amberly-default.png): "Right. Time to get going."
Amberly looks for a magic store.
-
Fer let a breath out as he entered the library -- he'd been planning mostly to report to his family, but now that he entered the entrance lobby, it occurred to him that actually buying some tomes might be a good idea. The magic users he'd been traveling with, and he himself, were all getting more skilled with magic, and some better magic to have at their fingertips really might be in order. He'd need to go back and get the gold, though.
Despite his current conflicting set of emotions of apprehension and anticipation, Fer couldn't actually help but get a little giddily excited as he perused the tomes. They were just relatively common tomes, for the most part -- the library did offer some more rare and advanced pieces of magic, but he'd seen them all before. But even still, actually getting to put some of these spells into use was an exciting proposition.
(https://i.imgur.com/Ue84TbD.png):"Ohoho, they put out that Meteor tome...! I guess they really did finish the archival tasks with it. Ohhhhh, that is quite tempting. I will probably have to get my hands on that! Let's see here, maybe Sacred Fire since Amberly's is getting tattered, Vortai could use an advanced spell like I could, perhaps Jormungand would do..."
-
No matter who Amberly asked on the street, everyone said the same thing when she asked for recommendations in magic stores: the library. This confused the nun, until she found the place and noticed price lists in the windows. Clearly, this establishment sold tomes as well as keeping them for study. Perhaps the store was merely a side project?
It wasn't until she was about to head inside that she noticed the name of the place and, presumably, the owners.
(https://i.postimg.cc/tRkgk5D0/amberly-surprise.png): "Jasso? Could this be?...Surely not."
Stepping through the door, Amberly was immediately struck by the nostalgic aroma of paper, ink, and leather bindings. Deciding that shopping and gold delivery could wait a few moments, the nun browsed the rows of shelves, simply to admire the tomes on display.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "So, Claude. Do you intend to stay here and assist Ethan if he does end up claiming the throne?"
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "Heavy emphasis on 'if' , as it seems he is trying his best to avoid that duty."
-
Fer continued to browse the shelves for a while, too caught up in enjoying the crop of relatively advanced spells they'd evidently elected to put out recently to actually take either necessary step of retrieving money or reporting to his family. As he browsed the light tomes, he looked up and found that he'd managed to get just a little too close to a cute girl by accident while having his nose practically among the tomes, causing him to blush and look down
but
wait
Fer turned his head back at the girl.
(https://i.imgur.com/SOktqHI.png):"WHAT"
-
Amberly had been so absorbed in the books that she hadn't even noticed her fellow mage until he said something, practically in her ear.
(https://i.postimg.cc/tRkgk5D0/amberly-surprise.png): "Eek! Oh, it's you, Fer."
(https://i.postimg.cc/d0JW0Zpy/amberly-smile.png): "I suppose this must be your family's place after all. Unless there's another library in this city owned by a different Jasso family, and you prefer to do your shopping there. Well, this is convenient; I have something for you here..." The nun began rummaging through her bag, handing used tomes to Fer for him to hold.
-
Seemingly without a pause Amberly began talking cheerfully and handing books off to the rather stunned Fer,
(https://i.imgur.com/SOktqHI.png):"E-- erh-- uh-- Am--"
He began to sag a bit under the weight of all the tomes -- tomes were heavy even individually, let alone when he was carrying three in his arms, but he was still distracted by, well,
(https://i.imgur.com/SOktqHI.png):"Amberly-- uh-- f-- face?"
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/d0JW0Zpy/amberly-smile.png): "Ah, here we are!" Amberly finally extracted a pouch of gold and exchanged it for her tomes, which she stuffed back into her bag. "That minister of the king's, Paon, was handing these out. I volunteered to go into the city and look for members of the party to give them to." Fer was stammering...something?
(https://i.postimg.cc/tRkgk5D0/amberly-surprise.png): "Face? I don't quite--oh, of course. You, er, probably haven't seen me like this before."
Privately, Amberly worried that perhaps something was wrong with her face - Fer did seem rather flabbergasted. A creeping sense of deja vu also made the nun wonder if she'd done something wrong without meaning to, again.
-
Fer's stammering finally began to collapse into comprehensible words, and the mage had to fight to not blush from embarrassment.
(https://i.imgur.com/SOktqHI.png):"Ahaha, um, yes, sorry, it-- uh-- it's just... this is quite the surprise."
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/d0JW0Zpy/amberly-smile.png): "Well, you surprised me as well, so I suppose we're even."
(https://i.postimg.cc/NFQxLytK/amberly-default.png): "I can tell you about it later, if you like. In the meantime, would you mind showing me around your family's famous library? I only just got here, myself."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Er, I'd love to show you around the public portions,"
(https://i.imgur.com/SOktqHI.png):"but the private portions may be more of a problem. Er, I was planning on actually going in soon to report in on my situation, and you WOULD be useful for that, but..."
Fer trailed off lamely, gesturing vaguely and incoherently.
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/NFQxLytK/amberly-default.png): "I'll be happy to help in any way I can, of course. What would you need from me?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/Ue84TbD.png):"Ah, rather... the issue may potentially be..."
Fer paused for a moment, and then sighed, looking much more somber.
(https://i.imgur.com/Ue84TbD.png):"My brothers here have a vendetta against the Church, I'm afraid -- my family has a long history of tension and sometimes combat with it. I would... not tolerate it, but things may become unpleasant."
-
Amberly winced a little at that news.
(https://i.postimg.cc/SNSQB0bG/amberly-ce.png): "I...see. Thank you for the forewarning, but it doesn't explain how I might be useful. On the contrary, it seems like my presence here might hurt your 'situation' instead."
-
Meanwhile somewhere else, a man is apologizing to Aeron Cawallader for being late.
(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/351806856957526016/590602651343781898/AeronCawallader.png): You're here, I'll let it slip this time, there's more important stuff to worry about. Have you been following her? Well, she's here now, so start doing your job. Try to wait until after the announcement, even if you find the oportunity. Understood? Very well.
The mystery man nodded and both left in different directions.
A bit after Amberly left, a man approached Gawen.
//Blake Oswell is in!
-
Gawen did her best to not make a face when she saw the man approaching. She didn't have a problem with him, per se, it was more what he represented.
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"Hello, Blake. Did Father need something further? We already had a rather lengthy discussion earlier." It wasn't unexpected to see the man here; after all, he was Aeron's butler.
-
Blake approaches the group with a warm smile.
(https://i.imgur.com/JYHzEb0.png) "Gawen! And Angelica, too. It is so very good to see you both after so long." He seems puzzled at her question, and his smile fades.
(https://i.imgur.com/LQ9aKr7.png) "Hm? No, milord doesn't require anything else of you; not at the moment, I should say. I sought you out on my own to say hello after our long separation. Nothing has happened between you and milord, has it?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"E-er! Well, you see, I had been planning on talking about the artifacts and what I've found, and... well... you were the other one doing most of the analysis on our artifacts, and you've been doing it longer than me, too, so you've even been able to analyze all three! It would be a terribly incomplete report if I left out your contributions... and I guess, um, I don't think it would be right to just act like I'm responsible for our artifact knowledge when I'm really not, and when most of it is really you."
...and Fer wanted to rub in his brothers' faces that he'd worked with someone from the church who had been profoundly useful, but he couldn't find the words to say that.
-
Gawen pursed her lips for a moment.
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"Not precisely, but a discussion was had. You could ask him about it later, but it's family matters that I don't feel should be spoken about with others at the moment." Nevermind how quickly this was going to spread through the rumor mill.
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"But, it's good to see you again, particularly when you're not bearing chores for me. How have things been at home?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/LQ9aKr7.png) "I see. Perhaps I’ll do that, then. But, for the time being, some catching-up is in order.”
(https://i.imgur.com/JYHzEb0.png) "Oh, things at home have been just fine. I must say a fair bit more boring with the two of you absent, but fine all the same. And of your travels? I see you’ve found yourself quite the group here.”
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"I somehow stumbled into the heir to the throne while fending off a bandit raid, among other things. You know, the typical fare." Gawen did her best to keep a straight face.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/tTvnHgG.png) "My, the heir to the throne? I believe milord might have mentioned something like that, but to be completely honest with you, I was distracted at the time. But this really sounds like quite the adventure you two have been on.”
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"Indeed it has. And it's been a sight more productive than endless tea parties and awkward conversations with men twice my age."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/LQ9aKr7.png) "I should hope so. You always seemed so bored whenever those events came up back at home. I’m happy you have found something more engaging to occupy yourself with... although ‘discovering the heir to the throne’ is quite far down the list of things I would have expected you to be doing.” Finished speaking only to Gawen for just the moment, Blake turn his attention towards Angelica.
(https://i.imgur.com/JYHzEb0.png) "And Angelica, how have you been finding everything going on lately? Forgive me, I did not mean to speak only to Gawen.”
-
The nun couldn't help but feel a bit flattered, though something told her there was more to it than that. Well, she had offered to help, so...
(https://i.postimg.cc/NFQxLytK/amberly-default.png): "Well, of course I would be happy to help share what we've learned. Should we fetch Vortai as well or did you want to go ahead and meet them now?"
-
(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/354281569445347330/354281658209533953/Basedtroub-4.png)
"Things have been fine all things considered. Though events took several more turns than I was expecting, it wasn't all bad. At any event, what have you been doing in our absence?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/LQ9aKr7.png) "More of the same. Tending to milord and the estate, running errands for him... I shouldn't think you want me to bore you with the details."
-
"So, Claude. Do you intend to stay here and assist Ethan if he does end up claiming the throne?"
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "I try my best to finish everything I start, and that situation counts. Now, your surprising acquisition of a new armor set reminds me I have my own orders to collect at the forge and the tailor. Do you want to follow me or perhaps visit the local library?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "Perfectionism. How unfortunate that such dedication is being spent dealing with such an...Unusual figure like Ethan. If you ever do decide to work for someone else, make sure to let me know, I could use some assistance in the near future."
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "I suppose I can follow you for now, I am sure Fer is more than capable of finding the tomes I desire. After all, he does know that library better than any of us, doesn't he?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Feel free to follow me. I'll use the opportunity to ask: what exactly was the deal that gained you that armor?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/HhEpNos.png) "Oh? Curious now, aren't we?"
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "Unfortunately I prefer to not share details about the deals I make."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Suit yourself."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "I am not sure what are going to be Ethan's plans for us, but I still have some pending tasks to handle. So unless you intend to keep working for him in the next few years, I may have an offer for you."
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "...Well, an offer for you and consequently Lavinia, I suppose."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "What kind of offer... And do you mean by 'consequently' Lavinia?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "I had been searching for a relic, a powerful object that has been lost generations ago. And to have a proper chance to find it, I will need experienced sea travelers to assist me, and you do fit such requirement."
(https://i.imgur.com/tPZhrdj.png) "What do I mean? Well, what I meant to say is that I will have to hire her as well...After all, you two seem to share some sort of connection, a bond even. So I somewhat doubt you or Lavinia would be willing to break such connection."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"Perhaps you should have come along with us as well. Though I'm not sure how keen you are on having pirates trying to crack your skull left and right."
-
Claude's slight frown of suspicion disappeared after Vortai explained what he'd meant.
(https://i.imgur.com/rZ6iW4V.png) "That is about right, I suppose."
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "As for any job offers, I might be busy for the next few years to come. We'll see."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "You seemed bothered until I properly explained myself, what did you think I meant by those words?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/9N8L1LW.png) "Nothing specific, but offers and questions out of nowhere are naturally suspicious." Claude replied to dismiss Vortai's worries. Or further prying.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/LQ9aKr7.png) "No, I shouldn't think so... Hold on a moment. Have you and your friends been dealing with this since you met?"
(https://i.imgur.com/MuXF2Ch.png) "Milady, I would have volunteered myself to accompany you in a heartbeat if I had known you would face such danger. I may be milord's servant, but my duties are to protect you as well."
-
Fer chuckled.
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"I... am afraid that our masked compatriot may not be the best choice to attempt to explain things to people."
Then he took a deep breath, his face taking on a serious set.
(https://i.imgur.com/Ue84TbD.png):"Right... let's go then. Follow me, Amberly."
And Fer moved towards the back of the library.
-
Trying to avoid further questioning from Vortai, Claude shifted the topic.
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "Talking about Lavinia, maybe we should find her now that we've received the funds to actually purchase new gear."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "I see nothing suspicious about offering a comrade a job opportunity, but I shall take notes. Hmm, guess you do intend to stick around then, don't you? Understandable, considering Ethan is still your captain."
(https://i.imgur.com/nQ0jdpc.png) "I thought we were heading to the forge, Claude. Did you perhaps forget to tell Lavinia something?"
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "But, yes we should let her know. And eventually the others, as I am sure they completely forgot about our payment."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gbivRGG.png) "The places were I intend to collect my order from are in the same district as most of the shops, and Lavinia did head that way. It shouldn't be that hard to find her."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "Is that so? That does make things a lot easier for us then, let us hasten our pace just in case she is already done window shopping."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"Ah, and I appreciate you taking your duty so seriously, but we made our way just fine. I wouldn't want to take you away from Blodwen's afternoon dinners," she said with a rueful smile.
-
Amberly followed Fer, privately agreeing with his assessment about Vortai.
-
Claude headed to the district with the weapon and armor shops, stopping by a tailor just next door who specialized in cloth armor and clothes to go with protective equipment. He slipped into the armorer and shed off his old half-plate to replace most it with three-quarters plate, covering more of his body and adding a bit more flair with the slashed doublet. He recovered the Hero's Crest, using his own quill to write down vows in parchment before sealing them with wax and slipping both vows and crest under the armor for protection.
(https://i.imgur.com/Sy0We0X.png) "May I in the future be more deserving of such a crest." he wished before setting the top half of the falling buffe in place. The armor was weightier than before, but he was also much fitter than when he'd ordered it. He could endure. He would endure.
(https://i.imgur.com/EfkNlXM.png) "Not as radical a transformation as your robes, but these I had to buy." Claude comments as he leaves the back room to meet a waiting Vortai.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"Ah, and I appreciate you taking your duty so seriously, but we made our way just fine. I wouldn't want to take you away from Blodwen's afternoon dinners," she said with a rueful smile.
Blake pulls a face that you wouldn't think him capable of.
(https://i.imgur.com/6tbEQ8z.png) "If only it were so. How I detest the utterly wasted hours sitting at that table... And the grapes! I didn't know one man could eat so many in a single sitting!" He shakes his head at the thought.
(https://i.imgur.com/JYHzEb0.png) "But, I am relieved to hear that you weren't in any real trouble. I suppose I should have put more faith in your combat abilities. Pray tell, what are you going to do now? This seems like a moment of respite for you and your friends, but what comes after?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "While that is true, it does still look promising."
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "Having a proper headgear and a way to protect your neck is always welcome, after all it decreases the odds of getting gravely wounded or perishing."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/EfkNlXM.png) "I did have neck protection, it was just not nearly as thorough as this piece." Claude pointed out as he knocked on his new gorget.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "Yes, this is quite the improvement. Shall we look for Lavinia?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/EfkNlXM.png) "Sure. I think she was also getting some improvements, and I do need to check on the current state of our shopping list."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "Very well then, lead the way if you already know where to find her."
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "Speaking of shopping lists, I do hope Fer find some new tomes. While these I carry aren't exactly worn out, they feel very...Underwhelming."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"Good question. There are still some matters we haven't addressed yet - and I imagine after that's done, most of the nobility is going to be quite busy. The new king is not particularly keen on keeping his seat, and quite honestly that's a good thing. There is a good man somewhere inside him, but he is caked in a thick layer of scum and savagery."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/LQ9aKr7.png) "I see... A dilemma indeed. Not that I would particularly enjoy such a person staying in the position, but if he isn't to be the king, then who will take his place? Does such a person even exist to do so?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/EfkNlXM.png) "Let us move, then." Claude then started looking for Lavinia with Vortai's assistance.
-
Vortai simply followed Claude for now, glancing around to make sure they wouldn't end up passing by Lavinia without noticing.
-
As soon as Fer and Amberly entered the back area, a voice boomed.
Well, what do we have here?
A hand grabbed Fer's shoulder and turned him around to face the voice.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1w3jr97kbelq1ei/peio.png?raw=1): The prodigal son, as they say, has returned! Though it seems to be not the one we were expecting.
-
Claude and Vortai spotted Lavinia before she spotted them, but once she did, she grinned and waved.
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "About time. It feels like it's been forever since you let me go shopping alone." Not that she'd asked them to come along.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "I have some of the prices here. And the master armorer at the castle told me we can request one weapon from him, if you want to keep that in mind."
She paused, looking over Claude fully.
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "Though I hope you haven't already used up all his goodwill on that armor."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GIG0VU3.png)"That remains to be seen. I've been trying to draft up a list of recommendations for him; I do know a few men and women that I think would be suitable."
-
"Though I hope you haven't already used up all his goodwill on that armor."
(https://i.imgur.com/EfkNlXM.png) "This was a personal order to a nearby armorer, I've just collected it. So did anyone request anything or should we just purchase blindly? I do have my eye on one of these weapons. How about you?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/nQ0jdpc.png) "One weapon from him? How generous."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "I have a few thoughts, but you're the treasurer. Can't say I even know how much we have in the treasury, so with that and the prices we can make a plan easily enough."
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "And it'd have been zero if not for the Steward's orders - guess they've got a lot on their plate because of Ethan and all that's been going on."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/EfkNlXM.png) "Might as well give me those thoughts. Since the weapon I was interested in is fairly expensive we might as well redeem that voucher, depending on how the finalized list looks." he said, before remembering something and lowering the upper half of the falling buffe.
(https://i.imgur.com/Sy0We0X.png) "...And I suppose we can chat with the upper part uncoupled."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/dAdj8Lo.png):"Whuh--"
The entrance of the eldest Jasso brother startled the hell out of the youngest, and it took him a moment to regain his composure.
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"U-um, hello, Peio. I don't know whether I'm much closer to finding Armageddon or not, but I've been on quite the journey out finding Alvada's three rumored artifacts along with who turned out to be the new king-- and we did find them."
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"As you can imagine, these artifacts are pretty important from an archaeological perspective, and I came to report in on my findings."
Fer gulped, but then looked Peio in the eyes.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"Er, this here is another one of the members of the group that has been finding the artifacts. She was there before me, and has been doing the studying of the artifacts alongside me, so not only is she as much of an expert on two out of three of the artifacts as I am, but she knows significantly more about the first one the party I've been with found."
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Also, uh, wait, who were you expecting?"
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1w3jr97kbelq1ei/peio.png?raw=1): All that is good and all, but when I say "prodigal son", I mean I wasn't expecting you to be the one coming back from a church.
-
Oh, so Peio was talking about Xanti. Fer sighed, and rubbed his temples. Yeah, this was going to be difficult.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"Like I said, she's one of the other members of the party I was traveling with. The Church does have a lot of scholars, so it's only natural."
-
Peio chuckled.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1w3jr97kbelq1ei/peio.png?raw=1): I'm sure of all the people in your party she was so scholarly you decided to bring her to the back of the Jasso library despite everything.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"What are you-- look, both of the other scholars of the party are from the Church, there's three of us and I'm the only secular scholar. She has been the one more involved with the active study of the artifacts. What are you implying?"
-
Do you have to be so loud? I can hear you from the other side of the aisle.
Another of Fer's brothers made his appearance.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1uclm514lrmzqt1/ekaitz.png?raw=1): He wants to ask why'd you go to Xanti's side and bring your new girlfriend here to show us. I wanted to ask that too, I thought you knew better.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1w3jr97kbelq1ei/peio.png?raw=1): I was working up to that, Ekaitz. You can't just open up with that when your little brother comes for a visit after a long time.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1uclm514lrmzqt1/ekaitz.png?raw=1): You can, Peio, you were just pussyfooting around it because you like hearing your own voice, but this is an important issue here.
-
Well. Fer had warned her, but this went something a bit beyond what she was expecting. The old Amberly might have shut down completely at the older men's rudeness, but the nun had toughened up a little on her journey, and eventually she could take no more.
(https://i.postimg.cc/NFQxLytK/amberly-default.png): "Hello, I--"
(https://i.postimg.cc/NFQxLytK/amberly-default.png): "Oh, well--"
(https://i.postimg.cc/tRkgk5D0/amberly-surprise.png): "Er, actually--"
(https://i.postimg.cc/wMZQKZqM/amberly-blush.png): "No, that's not--"
(https://i.postimg.cc/zf8S1nrC/amberly-angry.png): "ExCUSE me, but I believe this has gone somewhat off track. I do not know who this Xanti is, Fer has not joined the Church of the Old Gods to my knowledge, and I am not his...we are not involved in such a way. If you are quite finished with your badgering, perhaps we can now discuss the artifacts we have been studying?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "I don't know about that. Talking can be pretty dangerous."
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "I could use a backup lance, the sharper the better. But if it doesn't happen, it doesn't happen - I've got a few that'll last me a while longer yet. Let's get to making the list."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "And it'd have been zero if not for the Steward's orders - guess they've got a lot on their plate because of Ethan and all that's been going on."
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "Unless they intend to invest all of their treasure on Ethan, I cannot see the reason behind them only offering us a single weapon. But at least we did get a proper payment for retrieving those artifacts."
(https://i.imgur.com/ov5y0GF.png) "...And I really do hope we get the chance to gear up before things get messy again."
-
Claude slowly puts the face armor back up in response to Lavinia's jole.
(https://i.imgur.com/EfkNlXM.png) "Let's do that then. I should be mostly fine on swords, though I believe it's about time I purchase an axe."
-
As his brothers spoke, Fer’s expression morphed into a grimace of fury that his brothers had not likely seen in years, and that Amberly certainly hadn’t ever seen.
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):”You fucking two—”
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):”Where do I even fucking BEGIN—”
Amberly’s interjection caused Fer to pause, and though his facial expression hadn’t relaxed to its usual, he at least managed to regain some of his composure, mindful again of her presence.
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):”Look. I haven’t seen Xanti in years and years, and you two are responsible for that. But even if that damned grudge wasn’t good for the family, but I expect you to at least have the good of the library in mind here. This is an important topic with regards to the magical history of Alvada, and turning it away because Amberly here is part of the Church only damages us.”
-
The brothers were taken aback by the double outburst. Ekaitz crossed his arms and was the first to speak.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1uclm514lrmzqt1/ekaitz.png?raw=1): I really did think you joined the Cult at first. I was worried.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1w3jr97kbelq1ei/peio.png?raw=1): I, too, was worried you might have forgotten the damage the Cult of the Old Gods caused not only to the Jasso family, but also the knowledge of all of Alvada. The destruction of the library, the loss of its records, the persecution... But you haven't, right?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):”No, of course I haven’t forgotten it. But I swear, this family is the only one that could keep a grudge for centuries. Now it’s a place of scholars, and it’s foolhardy to not take advantage of the knowledge and expertise they bring if we want to perform our family’s mission. We sell Light tomes, so I KNOW you realize this to some extent.”
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):”I never could bring myself to hate it after Xanti anyhow.”
Fer sighed and began to rub his temples, his brow now furrowed with frustration rather than anger.
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):”Besides, it’s not like Amberly here traveled back in time and burned down the damn library. Amberly, I’m sorry for getting you involved in this. I knew something like this would happen, but I still went ahead.”
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/NFQxLytK/amberly-default.png): "No Fer, you mustn't apologize. You gave me fair warning and I came along anyway. If I hadn't, this situation wouldn't have come up." Not that Amberly wasn't touched by Fer's apology, but it really wasn't his fault. Not in the main, at least. The nun turned her attention back to the older Jasso brothers, letting her voice harden again.
(https://i.postimg.cc/zf8S1nrC/amberly-angry.png): "I can see the problem you have with the Cult now, and believe it or not I sympathize with you. Destroying the Jasso Library was an act of barbarism and ignorance in an age when the Cult abused its power."
(https://i.postimg.cc/zf8S1nrC/amberly-angry.png): "But believe me when I say that the Cult is different now. We are collectors of knowledge, just as your family is. Our own House of Scholars has preserved records of the artifacts we have collected, and it is thanks to those records that we were able to find them. As to why that was such an important task...well, that is one of the things we can discuss should you be willing."
-
Peio lifted an eyebrow while Ekaitz just hummed at Amberly's words.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1w3jr97kbelq1ei/peio.png?raw=1): This is... quite unexpected, to say the least. I don't think anyone from the Cult actually came here to apologize, or at least acknowledge their past mistakes. Granted, it would have been better if it was a high rank member, but...
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1uclm514lrmzqt1/ekaitz.png?raw=1): Fer isn't wrong when he says the Jassos can keep a grudge for ages, so don't expect it to be over in an afternoon. But in the meanwhile, show us what you got this time. It should prove interesting as always.
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/NFQxLytK/amberly-default.png): "I'll begin, if there are no objections. I have been involved in this matter longer than Fer has, though I admit to not being present at the start of it." The nun took a moment to organize her thoughts.
(https://i.postimg.cc/NFQxLytK/amberly-default.png): "As I understand it, Captain Ethan and his crew uncovered the first of these artifacts, a crystal orb, in the course of their...business, I suppose. Not knowing what it was and, I assume, wanting to know how much it was worth, they traveled to the House of Scholars to learn what they could. I joined them in Di, as I was under assignment to travel to the House myself on an unrelated matter.
"The Abbess of the House quickly figured out that the orb was in fact the Royal Orb of Alvada, an artifact that pre-dates the Reckoning. According to the Abbess, its appearance is a sign that great catastrophe approaches our world. Fortunately it also reveals the location of other artifacts that, when assembled by royalty, are said to avert the catastrophe that the Orb presages.
"On orders from the Abbess, Captain Ethan, his crew, and myself first traveled to Port Omega, where we found the second artifact underneath an old church. It was an old bracelet, quite clearly from before the Reckoning, yet pristine despite a lack of obvious magic about it.
"From Port Omega we traveled on to Demon's Grin, where Fer joined us." Amberly gestured for Fer to take over, mostly because this was his family and he should be able to share his story, but also because she was out of breath.
-
Fer let out a long sigh at Peio and Ekaitz's words... honestly, they weren't enough for him, but he found himself unable to express that thanks to Amberly moving things onwards to the artifacts. Still, it was incredible that Amberly had actually managed to turn their moods like that. Fer hadn't thought it was possible... Amberly was pretty much a wizard! Well, in the figurative sense. Okay, in the literal sense too but anyway--
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"I had been in Demon's Grin because I had heard rumors among the archaeological community of some sort of a very old and very important artifact there. I had been running out of other leads, and..."
(https://i.imgur.com/dAdj8Lo.png):"Well, there's no way around this, I was captured by pirates."
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"A ship captained by Ethan -- apparently, Ethan of Alvada, though he knew it not at the time -- and containing other scholars such as Amberly here, and several fighters, carved through said pirates looking for much the same thing, and saved me, at which point I joined them."
(https://i.imgur.com/wDAHPrC.png):"Under the throne there, and this is fascinating, there was a secret passageway, some sort of puzzle, and something down there proclaimed that our intelligence had been proven satisfactory when that puzzle was solved, and that's how we got the next of the Royal Treasures, a ring. What I find most notable here is not the ring itself, but rather that these artifacts were clearly meant to be found and procured -- the Old Alvadans quite clearly had a plan set up for these things, and understanding just what that was is likely a necessary step to understanding our forebears."
His enthusiasm waned next:
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"We also found the last of the artifacts, a diadem, but... I'm afraid we didn't get that one from its resting spot."
Fer seemed to want to leave it at that.
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1uclm514lrmzqt1/ekaitz.png?raw=1): There's a lot to unpack here. If I heard you right, you were after the Royal Treasures of pre-Reckoning Alvada? And you found all of them? And on top of that, you return right when the King dies, without any clear successor, and that captain is the heir?
Peio laughed at Ekaitz's tone of disbelief.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1w3jr97kbelq1ei/peio.png?raw=1): That definitely sounds like one for the history books, right, Ekaitz? Now, I'm not saying I don't believe you, but it does sound quite unbelievable. And now that you mentioned a diadem... Lately there was some trouble after a museum in Demura was hit and a treasure denominated as Alvadan was stolen from there. Would your treasured diadem happen to be that one?
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/NFQxLytK/amberly-default.png): "The Old Gods work in mysterious ways, don't they? I understand if this sounds incredible, but the Orb did indeed point us to those three locations, and we did find all three treasures. It didn't even require special magic to do its work; you just have to place your hands upon the orb in a certain way and have a map handy. Perhaps, if you visit the palace, you can be given a demonstration."
(https://i.postimg.cc/SNSQB0bG/amberly-ce.png): "As for the museum...it was horrible. A perfect storm of unlucky events that not only prevented us from acquiring the diadem peacefully, but forced us into battle with the city guard. I still have nightmares."
-
Ekaitz just grumbled while Peio continued.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1w3jr97kbelq1ei/peio.png?raw=1): You did a lot more than that. The only reason Domiria hasn't retaliated yet is because they're waiting to see if Alvada will collapse by itself now that the King is dead without successors. They hope for a civil war like old times so they can just sit back and enjoy the fireworks, but I don't think they have any idea about that little surprise heritor. I guess Domiria will be the new King's problem, which happens to be a close acquaintance of you... and our little brother.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"IF you think this all sounds unbelievable... try experiencing it all firsthand. It has been... it has been a remarkable ride."
The talk about the museum drew a long sigh from Fer, though.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"I respected that museum greatly. What we did was... perhaps unforgivable.But I suppose that we are going to have to continue on anyway. ...and with Domiria, now, and with Ethan, I suppose that we are going to have to hope that the Royal Alvadan Treasures prove in some way relevant and positive for us. I don't trust Ethan to not escalate things with Domiria, his default reaction seems to be threats."
Fer put his hands on his face.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"In fact, when I was first rescued his first action was to threaten me with an axe. We may have conflict ahead of us, I'm afraid. I hope it isn't outright war, at least. Hopefully Domiria sees that they'd come out the worse for it."
-
The brothers look at each other, now serious.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1uclm514lrmzqt1/ekaitz.png?raw=1): Did you feel that too, Peio? Hmm...
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1w3jr97kbelq1ei/peio.png?raw=1): Yes, I know what you mean. There's a bad moon on the rise, as they say. The new king may not be fit for diplomacy, yet he is backed by ancient treasures. Something feels off. It may be worth putting that plan into practice.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1uclm514lrmzqt1/ekaitz.png?raw=1): Yeah, just in case, we should start working on it now. Fer, how busy do you think you'll be in the next few days?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"So long as Ethan is kept busy by what comes along with becoming a new king, not very -- the most I have to do is help buy tomes to prepare the party I'm in for the future travels we're no doubt going to have. Ethan will probably eventually decide to go somewhere and take us with him, however."
-
Ekaitz looked around to make sure nobody else was around in the restricted backside of the library.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1uclm514lrmzqt1/ekaitz.png?raw=1): Then can you help us with something then?
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1w3jr97kbelq1ei/peio.png?raw=1): Normally we wouldn't mention this to anybody else, much less someone from the cult, but Fer trusts you enough to bring you here and to stand up to us for you, so just for this once, and because the matter at hand is more important than anything else. Peio said to Amberly. But if any of this gets out, you may consider yourself and Fer, persona non grata with the Jasso family.
-
Fer facepalmed.
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):"You're being thespian, Peio, we're not going to leak the Jasso family secrets."
He replied more soberly to Ekaitz, however.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"But, yes... I will help you two, and I hope Amberly will too. Given the circumstances, it seems necessary, and... you are my family, after all."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1uclm514lrmzqt1/ekaitz.png?raw=1): For once, he isn't overreacting. Too much anyways. While you were away we have been working on a vault where to store the library's books to safeguard them in times of need. The vault is protected with several layers of magic, including, but not restricted to hiding its location in a matter that would be impossible for anyone without previous knowledge of it to find it. You can't overstate the effort we put into this place's security.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1w3jr97kbelq1ei/peio.png?raw=1): ...Now we just need to put the books inside.
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/NFQxLytK/amberly-default.png): "You are still being mysterious. Why is it so important to store these books? What are you planning?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"That would make sense, and I would be glad to help safeguard the contents of the library... but is there some additional involved challenge? I do not think you would need Amberly and I to help you if it's just manual labor to move the books."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1w3jr97kbelq1ei/peio.png?raw=1): These aren't simple books, they are originals from many years ago, some of them even dating from before the Reckoning! Even if copies exist, the originals are invaluable and need to be stored safely.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1uclm514lrmzqt1/ekaitz.png?raw=1): Each book is magically catalogued into the vault's registry. Without cataloguing, the vault itself would be too large for some of the spells there are in place, and the magical registry makes it much easier to find without having to browse and possibly damage other books.
-
Fer nodded then, closing his eyes for a moment.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"Alright. I would gladly help you with cataloguing."
(https://i.imgur.com/wDAHPrC.png):"I do want this library to continue to succeed too, after all."
-
Old books, some from before the Reckoning? While she still wasn't sure how much she liked Fer's brothers, they'd have to physically bar her from the library to keep her away from a prize like that.
(https://i.postimg.cc/NFQxLytK/amberly-default.png): "Many hands make light work, as they say. I would be happy to assist as well."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1w3jr97kbelq1ei/peio.png?raw=1): Thank you. Both of you. Your help will be surely appreciated. One more thing, Fer. We had something ready for you when you returned, though all this talk made me almost forget about it. Ekaitz/
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1uclm514lrmzqt1/ekaitz.png?raw=1): Oh. Yeah, here you go. A present.
Ekaitz took out a special tome they were saving for a special occasion.
Fer gets Meteor!
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "If you can handle wielding axes, I don't see why not."
-
After helping for a while, Fer and Amberly also took the chance to replenish their tome repertoir. Other weapons were also bought and an axe was forged for Ashlyn.
Amberly gets Sacred Fire!
Vortai gets Jormungand!
Angelica gets Arcthunder!
Ashlyn gets Worm and Brave Axe!
Gawen gets Brave Lance!
Claude gets Francisca!
Marlow gets Silencer!
Blake gets Caltrops!
Lysander gets Quickness!
Fer gets Sleep!
Party loses 11700 gold.
Six days later, the nobles were again reunited in the throne room, sitting and waiting for the announcement. Ethan's party was set apart closer to where Ethan would stand acting as his personal guard, as the Captain, now about to be crowned, stood hidden from sight until the ceremony started. Royal Guards were positioned in key locations, with Carmen herself close to the throne as well. Regent Paon emerged from the side door, leaving it open, and spoke to the gathered.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): All stand! The nobles stood up. King Titus' unfortunate passing would have left us without a clear heir to become the next King of Alvada. But as fortune would have it, just before his death he was reunited with someone long thought dead. This prompted whispers and gasps to erupt. Please, silence! I announce to you, Prince Narius has returned!
That was Ethan's cue to enter, dressed with decadent clothes fit indeed for a King, and wearing the Royal Treasures on him. Ethan simply stood next to Paon as he continued speaking.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): With his last words, the late Titus declared this man right here as his rightful brother Narius, the twin he, along with the rest of Alvada, thought perished in the tragedy of the White Doe. Not only that, during his travels he collected the great Royal Treasures of Alvada, the three pieces he wears on him now! As the legend passed down for generations of royal blood says, they come together to prevent disaster, in this case meaning the lack of a rightful successor leading to infighting! Therefore, the testimony of the late King proving his heritage, and the presence of the Treasures asking for immediate action, Prince Narius is the rightful heir to the Crown of Alvada, and the coronation shall proceed in this instant!
The congregation began to clap, as a form of acceptance of Ethan. Once it calmed down, Paon continued.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): Now, since no one has any objections, I will proceed-
Hold it! A voice boomed from the far end of the throne room, making everyone turn around.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/y6kcda6sohag9fn/narius.png?raw=1): That man is an impostor! I am the real Narius! Massive shock came to all present, but Carmen was quick in her reactions.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Guards! Stand ready! Carmen unsheathed her sword as the guards began to form a line between the objector and the throne.
-
Ethan gritted his teeth. That's why he disliked the nobility - nothing but drama.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "Really? What is your proof?"
-
A noise came from the direction of the direction of the what was now Ethan's personal guard -- the discordant, sniggering exhale of somebody trying his best not to laugh and not doing all that well at it -- and a visual inspection of that group would reveal that the red-haired mage among them had his fist to his mouth and his shoulders shaking with barely-suppressed mirth. After a few moments, he cleared his throat, cleared it again, and then:
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Em. Ehem. Do not-- do not mind me. This is-- this all very serious and grim, I am sure."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/y6kcda6sohag9fn/narius.png?raw=1): These are proof! The real Royal Treasures of Alvada!
The man who had declared himself as the "real" Narius pulled out a crown, identical in every detail to the one Ethan was wearing.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/y6kcda6sohag9fn/narius.png?raw=1): The Crown of Flight! Narius put on the crown and started levitating, flying up almost to the ceiling of the throne room.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/y6kcda6sohag9fn/narius.png?raw=1): The Ring of Magic! Then he produced an identical ring, put it on, and blasted down fire. Ethan was cut off from his crew and the others by a ring of fire!
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Damn it! What's the meaning of this? Carmen protected her face against the flames that suddenly appeared in front of her.
Narius descended in the middle of the ring, face to face with Ethan.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/y6kcda6sohag9fn/narius.png?raw=1): And the Bracelet of Power! Narius put on a bracelet much like the one on Ethan's arm, but this one gave his challenger superhuman strength. Ethan couldn't defend himself when Narius forcefully took the treasures from him, throwing them in a pile aside.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/y6kcda6sohag9fn/narius.png?raw=1): And if that's not enough, I will use the Amulet of Truth, a lost treasure that will reveal and destroy other fake Treasures!
Narius pulled out an amulet, identical to the one Ethan wore all the time, but that it wasn't taken from him for some reason. A light came from the amulet, obliterating the pile of treasures it took the crew so long to collect into nothing but loose dust. Carmen exchanged a look with Paon, and waited until Narius lowered his guard.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/y6kcda6sohag9fn/narius.png?raw=1): I expect for it to be clear now that it is ME who is the rightful heir to the throne, so my troops will move in and I expect everyone to remain calm- The ring of fire dissipated and Carmen took the chance to retrieve Ethan.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): We need to go!
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/y6kcda6sohag9fn/narius.png?raw=1): What the- Seize them! The other Royal Guards were stunned, but other troops, commanded by Narius himself, started pouring in the throne room while Carmen kicked open the side door and prompted Ethan and the party to escape. Paon remained in the throne room, silent, while chaos and panic took the rest of the nobles.
-
Fer's mood went from amusement at the idea of Ethan being some sort of suave infiltrator (Fer didn't think he'd ever heard a more patently ridiculous concept in his entire life) to raw outrage in a matter of moments.
(https://i.imgur.com/3JeonD8.png):"What?! BULLSHIT!"
(https://i.imgur.com/3JeonD8.png):"You think that you can just waltz in here with what I have no doubt are imitation baubles -- illusion or teleportation spells in that amulet, no doubt -- and just declare the results of so much archaeological study, hardship, and tragedy to be falsehoods? I...!"
But here Fer trailed off, considering the fire that that man had cast -- some of the patterns of how it had been cast reminded him of spells he had studied during his search for Armageddon. Maybe this was not, in fact, some sort of illusion.
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):"I am doubtful that those are the real treasures, and I still do suspect ours to have been transported somewhere. But that fire... ...I am going to have to learn more. Whatever is happening here, it is not quite simple."
With his outrage halted, Fer then actually elected to take the intelligent move and follow Carmen out.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "All this, and your main concern is source of magical fire?" Ethan mumbled out as he was led off who knows where.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "Have you considered that you might be somewhat of a pyromaniac?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/3JeonD8.png):"I'm a scholar of ancient fire magic, Ethan, this is something I have based my entire life's studies on. Now, let's just focus on whatever the hell is going on here."
-
Narius squinted as the group exited through the door and muttered to himself.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/y6kcda6sohag9fn/narius.png?raw=1): You don't need to understand, you need to obey. All of you. Go! Narius ordered the pursuit.
The group followed Carmen into her office, where it was slightly cramped.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): There's an alternate exit so we can stop and think for a few minutes. First of all: Narius- Ethan- you, what happened?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "You tell me?"
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "I'm an outsider in all this. Was there another brother I wasn't told about, Paon-" Ethan realized that the old man wasn't with them.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "Right."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/PXJhsf8.png)"A pretender, clearly. With some fancy enchanted objects to impress nobles who have more care for their own hides than the nation." She sighed. "I only have to wonder how such a stunt was arranged so quickly."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "Could always be the real-real Narius, for what I know."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Something stinks in all of this. This isn't a third twin we're talking about, he's claiming to be Narius just like you. And- the amulet! Do you still have it?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/PXJhsf8.png)"No, the timing is too convenient. It wouldn't have made sense to wait this long for the real heir to reveal himself now, and I certainly doubt he would have appeared with this kind of force. This man saw an opportunity in the inevitable doubts surrounding your ascension to the throne and seized it."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "The amulet?" Ethan patted himself a bit and, having found it still on him, pulled it out.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "Well, huh."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"Whatever's going on, at least one of those artifacts is not just some cheap trick. That ring produced magic with patterns that one doesn't typically find in modern magic -- it is at least very old, and quite potentially pre-Reckoning. He has actual powerful magic at his command."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): So... it wasn't destroyed like the rest. It looks exactly like the alleged Amulet of Truth he used. Did he not know you had one just like it? Does yours work like his? Does anyone here know what the Amulet of Truth is supposed to be?
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/tRkgk5D0/amberly-surprise.png): "That may be so, but there is still something very wrong here. Surely the real Royal Artifacts couldn't have been destroyed by any magic less powerful than themselves, which means the ones he destroyed must have been fakes. The question is whether they were stolen and replaced here in the castle, or if the real items are still out there somewhere."
There was of course a third option - that Narius was legit and held the real Artifacts - but Amberly didn't really want to consider that one.
(https://i.postimg.cc/tRkgk5D0/amberly-surprise.png): "Unfortunately there aren't a lot of records on what any of the objects themselves do; just the way they appear before calamity strikes. It's something that will have to be tested."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "I've always had it on myself as far as I remember. And as far as I remember, it was just looking nice on my neck. Even my old captain let me keep it."
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "Kept me from bad luck, I guess? Until recently..." Ethan grumbled, and then hid the amulet back under his tunic.
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Test it... Do you happen to have any other treasures you could try it on?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/MuXF2Ch.png) "Damn... This is troublesome indeed. I think you are correct, miss Carmen. If this man is the true heir, the real Narius, he would have no reason to hide himself away until Ethan was about to be coronated. Although I can’t say I fully understand all this talk about relics, to be truthful.”
(https://i.imgur.com/6tbEQ8z.png) ”I say, these usurpation plots are such a nuisance. Hopefully we are able to solve this one posthaste.”
-
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"The only thing left is this orb we got way back when... It was what led us to all the other treasures." Ashlyn said as she produced said orb. "I don't know if this thing counts, as one, though..."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Problem is, like Fer said, even if the treasures he wields are fake, that power is not, and he's brought muscle to this party. Try it, Ethan. Let's see if it does anything.
-
Ethan looked at Carmen, at the orb, then pulled the amulet out and tapped it against the orb few times.
-
There was a blink of light, and the amulet started projecting a beam onto the orb, making it shine until a layer of it sloughed off, covered in a bright light. When the light faded, the piece of the orb that shed was a seal with the Royal Crest. Ethan felt a strange affinity towards it.
Ethan gets Heaven Seal!
But not only that, despite the piece that fell off, the orb was still perfectly round as before, but the lights that it emitted to show the locations of the Treasures had changed, and were more vibrant than before.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Something did happen... but I'm not sure what it is.
-
Fer let out a soft laugh as Ethan abruptly found himself in the possession of some OTHER artifact item, replete with the royal crest and everything.
(https://i.imgur.com/dAdj8Lo.png):"Well... if there was any doubt, there certainly is not anymore. I don't believe there could possibly be a more obvious sign of heritage."
He then let out a "hmmmm," and stared at the orb for a moment.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"You've mentioned that the orb allowed you to find the artifacts... I may not be familiar with the ritual involved, but if we are uncertain about the locations of the artifacts, could you not simply do so... again?"
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/NFQxLytK/amberly-default.png): "Perhaps...perhaps those were the real Artifacts back there, and they were indeed destroyed, but not permanently. If that is the case, then they must have reformed in new locations. I've got a map, somewhere...ah, here it is!" The nun dug through her pack for a moment before pulling out a map of the known world. It wasn't as detailed as the one back in the House of Scholars, but it was readable enough. "Let's see where the Orb points us this time..."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Figures things would get more complicated again. We can't keep hunting them down until the world ends, so this time, let's make it stick."
Or had something else changed, too? If even the mages didn't know what really happened, she wasn't about to speculate.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "I really do not appreciate the direction this took. A waste of effort and time indeed."
(https://i.imgur.com/BPtBu3g.png) "This does make me desire another kind of hunt."
(https://i.imgur.com/aRKAb5A.png) "The kind of hunt that will guarantee this sort of issue will not occur again whenever we retrieve the artifacts, if they are still around."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"Now, we don't know that they've necessarily been re-scattered -- they could potentially have been transported by that fake amulet to locations a little easier to access than the corners of the world. I certainly hope so... I don't want to repeat that whole damned process."
-
Ethan attached the Heaven Seal to his pants.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "Might as well use it as a belt buckle."
Ethan promotes to Swashbuckler!
-
(https://i.imgur.com/ViTPP7s.png) "They better be close, otherwise this charlatan will have more than enough time to settle down here as the 'real king'. And he is better off being used as an object of experiments."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/PXJhsf8.png)"Complications upon complications. . . and I don't exactly have the time to raise a levy to respond to him. Especially since they may well believe this pretender over me." She added another comment under her breath. "Not that I could blame them. . ."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Alvada's the least of it, anyway. If another Reckoning happens there might not be an Alvada left."
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "At that point, that Narius will just be king of a bunch of underwater ruins."
-
While Ethan added a new complement to his clothing, that gave him renewed strength after the whole ordeal, Amberly and Ashlyn lined up the orb with the map to find the new locations marked.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/g04ib0gi4fgvg1m/mapc.png?raw=1)
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Whatever the plan is, the first step should involve getting out of the palace alive. We'll have to get out through the back garden if we want to make it. While speaking, Carmen grabbed a scroll from a chest hidden under her desk.
-
Fer let out a despairing groan.
(https://i.imgur.com/dAdj8Lo.png):"Two out of three are literally the corners of the world, then. Damn it... what was the point, then?"
-
Ethan looked in the corner of the map.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "You think those tiny, colorful squares are of some significance?" He asked no-one in particular.
-
Saying Claude was livid would be putting it lightly. This whole mess would only cause strife until it was solved. He'd have murdered the pretender on the spot were he closer.

Amberly's shoulders slumped. She hadn't been expecting the Old Gods to be quite so...demanding.

Fer let out a despairing groan.

(https://i.postimg.cc/NFQxLytK/amberly-default.png): "In any case, we should depart for the House of Scholars at once. Aside from the fact that the Orb seems to be pointing us in that direction, it would also be good to get the Abbess' input on the situation. Plus it's by far the closest one."

~~Chapter 7: The Great Escape~~
Ethan's coronation has gone awry after a pretender claiming to be the real Narius with the real Treasures overpowered him. But with the orb revealing new locations to investigate the crew has a new objective.
Although they would have to escape the castle, filled with Narius' troops.
Carmen had used the scroll in the meanwhile, and lead the party through the halls of the castle, avoiding the troops searching for Ethan.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): The door to the gardens is just around the corner. Carmen stopped when she heard someone shout orders from the garden.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/0uxf8rkn0dj0h0k/berkin.png?raw=1): Comb the gardens! They can't have gotten out just yet!
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): We'll have to fight from this point on. Just at that moment, as if summoned by her words, a squad of Narius' soldiers showed up around the corner.
There they are!

Lavinia narrowed her eyes as she scanned the soldiers in front of them, looking to mark a target.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "I don't think this is like Demura. Who are these soldiers, anyway?" That they were that Narius's was clear enough, but she could tell little else.

Gawen, for her part, seemed to have reached her limit.
(https://i.imgur.com/JIu8fAa.png)"I've had enough of this, enough of people trying to hijack my country and use her people for their personal gain. Anyone who threatens her from now on is dead already." She couched her lance. "Have at me, you rebel bastards! FOR ALVADAAAA!"

(https://i.imgur.com/EfkNlXM.png) "And we are a sprint away from them; we either seize initiative or are seized in turn." Claude said as he charged ahead, a pair of his new throwing axes in his hands.
The armored accountant ran towards a soldier but stopped before reaching them; his target was the soldier with the more dangerous weaponry behind the first one.
Claude to B-7, Francisca SoldE.

(https://i.imgur.com/LQ9aKr7.png) "Duck, milady." Blake says as he follows Gawen forward and pitches a caltrop over her shoulder.

Blake moves to [D, 6] and caltrops Soldier C.

(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "It is very visible the others are not satisfied with this outcome, now then I believe it is my turn."
Move to C, 5 and summon an axe Golem on C, 6.
Vortai raised his now glowing gauntlet while the stone floor in front of him began to shake and tear itself apart to gain a new form.

(https://i.imgur.com/zUN2RZw.png) "Perish."
Send axe golem to C, 7 to attack SoldB.
The summoner didn't stop there, as soon enough a glowing sword formed above him, just waiting to be flung towards his target.
(https://i.imgur.com/MdsHztg.png) "I really do NOT enjoy when studies and efforts are wasted. If they will dare to call us pretenders and point their weapons at us, they know the risks of doing so."

After launching the first spectral blade, he launched a second one to assist the golem to land the killing blow.

To be honest, after taking an arrow through the neck, Fer's very first thought was to feel very stupid -- this wasn't the first time getting too close to walls had come back to bite him, and he suspected it would probably not be the last, either. He put a hand on the arrow in his neck, but he didn't move it, not even breathing -- he knew better than that, at least.
He did look rather pleadingly in Angelica's direction, though.

Once, Claude looked like he was on his way to becoming a perfect footsoldier skillwise, by-the-manual stiff footwork and strikes. Nowadays it wasn't just the gaudiness of his attire, but also the fluid movement that came with each swordstroke that showed how far he'd come.
With Lavinia distracting the mage, all he needed to do was aggressively step into the spellslinger's personal space and shoulder-check them into losing their balance. The tensing of muscles, the whine of the blade cutting through the air and the short scream were followed by blood spraying in the air as the enemy's head dropped to the ground to stain the grass red.
(https://i.imgur.com/EfkNlXM.png) "Lavinia, ever wondered if I'm getting better at cracking skulls rather than numbers?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "A bit of a high bar, isn't it? I'll judge it when I see more of it."
Lavinia brushed off the lightning-scorched portion of her armor. Maybe it was the way that his armor plates covered his mouth, but she couldn't quite tell if Claude was bragging or genuinely asking. Then again, she was never any good at reading into these things.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "All the better if you're good at both, anyway. Some people settle for one."

J8, mend Blake back to relevance (to the highest degree possible)

Blake moves to [M, 8] and throws a few tiny metal spikes so hard at Ranger F that he dies.

Claude wasn't pleased with being ignored. His boots sunk into the dirt as he twisted his hips, preparing what promised to be an absolutely brutal ax throw. Except his target was nearby, and instead of throwing the ax he held it close to the blade and punched with it.

Preferentially after Lavinia is healed, if it happens: Claude applies the Francisca to Mage I.

Blake briefly assesses himself - he could just barely stay upright, but his legs were far from steady under him, his vision was rapidly clouding, and the searing pain of magic was all he could feel from his waist up. Then a horse and its blue-haired rider crossed his vision, and a flash of anger pierced the fog.
(https://i.imgur.com/MuXF2Ch.png) Damn that woman! If she hadn't...!
...She'd killed the horseman, but there was his friend, the mage. Blake turned, knife in hand, sprang forward with speed he shouldn't possess so close to death's door...
(https://i.imgur.com/PYQoKkH.png) "Start doing your jobs right and die with your master!"
...leapt towards his target, and slit the man's throat open like a bag of grain.
Blake moves to [T, 7] and uses Vital Strike on Cultist F to trade -14 damage for +70 crit. Let's hope he hits this time.

A flash of fire deletes both the medic and the book.

Fer dodged under an axe with a yelp, and sent a great ball of fire in the direction of his attacker, putting some flair on the execution of one of the book's sigils with a diagonal slash of his finger, only to shout and very nearly throw himself to the ground at the arrow in response, followed up by a very similar response.
Slowly, he stood up, and saw that A: he was very much alive and B: his foes were very much not.
(https://i.imgur.com/wDAHPrC.png):"H-hah... h... holy SHIT. I can't BELIEVE that-- well-- okay, hah, let's try another one."
With his moment of gleeful and shocked hesitation over, Fer moved down and decided to help the... rather savage deletion of the enemy forces.
He didn't feel anywhere near as bad about this battle.

~~~~Chapter 7 Complete~~~~
XP: 87/100
After getting out of palace grounds, Carmen scanned the surroundings.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Now we need it to make it to the docks, but look... The whole city is in chaos.
Carmen pointed to the main streets, where knights bearing noble symbols were fighting between themselves, with one side of the scuffle losing clearly thanks to the aid of other fighters.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): It's like a civil war just broke out. Noble armies fighting one another, looters sacking shops... some robed people are burning papers? What is going on?
-
The chaos caused Fer to stop for a moment, wide-eyed, but to tell the truth, he was getting alarmingly used to violence and chaos, so it didn't take long for him to recover, but one thing Carmen said immediately grabbed his attention.
(https://i.imgur.com/dAdj8Lo.png):"Robed people burning papers...?"
Fer and his brothers and Amberly had managed to get the important manuscripts of the library into the vault, so thankfully he wasn't too worried about that, but still.
He put a hand over his eyes, hurriedly surveying the scene in hopes of finding what Carmen was referring to. Were Peio and Ekaitz maybe burning some confidential documents, or getting rid of some of the less valuable mass books from the public section of the library?
-
Fer found the scene Carmen mentioned, and managed to get a critical detail out of it: the papers were coming out of the Jasso library! Robed people that were definitely not his brothers were going in and out with their arms full of books to throw them on a massive bonfire on the street, with someone at the entrance giving orders to the group.
-
Suddenly and instantly, an uncharacteristically LOUD bark emanated from Fer as he watched the scene in question.
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):"FUCKERS!"
Fer's face underwent a transformation, brows furrowed in rage and teeth clenched fiercely, lines of tension visible up his jaw to his cheek. There was a voice in the back of his mind that told him it was okay because the vault had the most valuable books in it, but that voice was drowned out by the howling voice of rage that told him to end the threat and end it thoroughly.
Fer's entire body shuddered as he clamped that rage down enough to remain coherent... but only just that much.
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):"I'm sorry, but I need to kill some people now."
And Fer seized his Meteor tome, flipping it open and clearly preparing to use it.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "We ain't got time to save some books!" Ethan grabbed onto Fer's cloak, trying to pry him away from the whole mess.
-
Amberly jumped as the normally mild-mannered scholar suddenly shouted profanity.
(https://i.postimg.cc/tRkgk5D0/amberly-surprise.png): "Fer?! What--?" She looked in the direction Fer was looking, and was astonished for the second time in as many seconds. That was the Jasso library! And those robes...more of those cultists?
(https://i.postimg.cc/zf8S1nrC/amberly-angry.png): "Wh-what? How dare they?!" Amberly reached for her own tome, angry at the sight of burning books. Such an act was practically heresy in her mind!
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "I get the feeling I'm missing something," Lavinia said tersely, keeping her lance at the ready. Far be it for her to prematurely discourage Fer from getting into a fight, even as her captain tried his best to dissuade the man.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Do you recognize those people, or is it about the books?"
-
Fer ignored the hand on his cloak, tracing the sigils on the page once more -- he had never fired this tome before, though he'd read it over a couple of times, and he was going to make sure that it didn't misfire, especially right next to the library. It was close, though -- they were either going to have to physically restrain Fer from completing the spell, or he was going to fire it off. At the same time, he spoke, rage providing a steel core to his normally soft voice.
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):"This is my family's library, Ethan. It has been my family's purpose for centuries. It has been my purpose for my entire life. The reason that I travel the world, that I was here to join this crew, is to add to it."
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):"I will not abandon my family and my life's work."
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):"I am either going to kill all of them and make sure that there are no survivors, or I am going to die to them."
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):"There are no other options."
-
Ethan let out an exasperated sigh and rubbed his forehead.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "Fine!" He hefted his heavy axe.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "I don't mind chopping off few more heads, you know. Let's make it quick, though. The sooner I'm off the land, the better!"
-
Carmen had kept looking at the increasingly on fire city, until...
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Damn it... Damn it all! Listen, if you're going to spend some time taking the heat off the library I'm fine with it, but I'm going to try and sneak off my squad from the safe house they've been staying at before something happens to them.
She hesitated for a second before continuing.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): I trust you can keep Ethan safe... but I could use an extra pair of hands with me. Is anyone coming with me?
-
Blake, knife at his side and one arm across his chest, pipes up.
(https://i.imgur.com/MuXF2Ch.png) "Normally I would be willing to assist," he begins, before his eyes flicker over to Gawen, "but.. I would prefer to stay with milady. Her safety is paramount in such a frenetic situation."
-
Lysander frowned, looking at the group, then looking at Carmen. A sigh.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Angelica, you keep the group safe, ok? Yours and Gawen's mounts would attract too much attention if we're trying to sneak. I'll go with Carmen."
-
Gawen was physically, visibly shaking as she took in the utter chaos that had erupted in the chaos of the capital city.
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)"Damn it, damn it, damn it!" She punctuated each expletive by slamming her fist into her own thigh. "I won't accept this. Where are my men!? I didn't come this far to see some damned pretender with some enchanted toys rip my country apart." Her mount seemed to pick up on his rider's emotions, stepping and rearing slightly in place. Her head whipped back and forth between staring at the scene before her and glancing back at Ethan. "We need to get the king out of the city, but I'll be damned if I just slink out. I need to find my father and his retinue so we can rally the loyalist forces."
-
Vortai followed the others without bothering to unsummon his golem, so for now it was pretty much staying behind the cloaked figure. The moment they stopped, he inclined his head to the side to properly check what was going on, only to place a gloved hand under his chin pondering.
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "If I had to guess, the false king had been stirring this chaos around. Either that or the bad news we got in the castle spread really fast and now people think they are free to do what they wish."
Seeing Fer showing true signs of anger and hatred amused the summoner to no end, considering this was the first time he saw him so decided to -kill- other living creatures.
(https://i.imgur.com/Ld1jvzK.png) "I do agree with Fer, there is a price to be paid for burning such valuable information. If they desire to see things burn, I think it is only fair to let Fer make these people burn."
Vortai snapped his sharp fingers to send his golem forward and ready for another round of violence before he turned his head to the side, briefly giving a nod to Fer.
(https://i.imgur.com/NQekuVP.png) "I am sure it is obvious, but I am also staying to assist Fer with this task. This crime must be stopped, and their debt must be paid in blood."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/EfkNlXM.png) "What the... was your family inside too?"
Claude groaned. The burning of books was the doing of absolute barbarians, and it was even worse since it was the Jasso family's library. He knew which side he was taking regardless of Ethan's attempt to stop Fer.
He drew one of his throwing axes, spun it in his hand and shouted with the volume of someone telling people belowdecks to keep their paws off the last keg of spirits.
(https://i.imgur.com/EfkNlXM.png) "HEY BOOK BURNERS. STOP AND SURRENDER NOW OR DIE!"
(https://i.imgur.com/EfkNlXM.png) "Lysander, I'm not comfortable having one of our own two healers leaving, especially if Ashlyn follows you and we end up down two people, so please stay. We cannot split up too much or we might end up not finding each other again. Is there any other volunteer?"
-
Lavinia glanced over at Gawen, not intending to interfere with Claude's attempt to persuade Lysander.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "We still need to find the treasures again, and stop all of this for good. If your father can rally the loyalists by himself, then it'd be better to leave it to him. We need all the hands we have to succeed."
Her expression shifted slightly, not quite reaching amusement due to the severity of the situation.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Besides, you might still need to watch the orb and the captain."
-
Gawen glanced at Lavinia, and very nearly laughed despite herself and the situation.
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)"You have a point. . . I need to trust my father to do this." Her tone sounded less than confident. Strained as their relationship was, Gawen still thought that he would be on the right side of this. . . but it wasn't a certainty. She also wasn't sure how much the men would rally around the aged man with the sometimes-dubious reputation; she may not have been popular with the nobility, but her soldiers knew her. Or, at least, she thought they did.
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)"And, of course, I can't expect some ruffian to stay out of trouble." A small smile, though it quickly took a grim cast.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Fer can use a staff too. We need a healer with Carmen's group too, so I should go. I can leave an extra staff with him, but it will be fine. We have to protect all of us, not just some."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/EfkNlXM.png) "Then go Lysander, but stay safe."
-
Ashlyn placed a hand on Lysander shoulder as he stayed his course despite Claude's worries,
(https://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"Of course he'll be safe, Claude. I'll be right there with him. 'Sides, they could probably use someone who can take hits. Or break down a door."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "Breaking down the door while trying to sneak sounds like my kind of plan."
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "We'll be done with things here by the time you get back. Quick and thorough."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/lKndQnl.png)"I'll go with Carmen. Sneaking is the sort of thing I'm good for."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Thanks, you three. Let's go, we will meet back at the docks!
Carmen left, taking Lysander, Ashlyn and Marlow with her, while the rest descended on the book burners. They were already alerted by Claude's bellow, and when they saw the group approaching, dropped the books they had on hand and scattered quickly.
Inside the library the shelves were a mess, but the door to the more exclusive back section was still holding fast.
-
Fer let out a long sigh of relief when he entered the library and saw that the back section was, in fact, still safe.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"Okay... they only got the mass-produced stuff, then. That's fantastic..."
Though he had been calmed significantly by concrete confirmation that the most important things were okay, the resolute determination that had entered him had not been swept away.
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):"They still need to answer for the things that they have attempted to do, though. This cannot go unremedied."
Fer looked around -- if they really were gone from the library, he moved to leave and pursue. If they were still in here, though, well... that had to be dealt with, yes?
-
Fer could hear familiar voices when he got near the door.
I don't hear them rustling the shelves any more. Are they gone?
I can still hear some voices.
If they were finished with those books they'd be banging on the doors right now, or setting the whole place on fire from the outside.
We'd be feeling it if it was that. And they can't have burned through everything already. Can you go check it out? I'm still working on this one.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/NQekuVP.png) "And do you really think we will just let them get away unpunished? They just scattered, so it is a matter of finding and eliminating them."
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "During such...chaotic times, I somewhat doubt they intend to just 'stop' because we spotted them."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):"Yes, I think that sounds right too Vortai. Hell. The false Narius really is having this whole damned city torn apart. It's such a shame to see Duo Alvada brought this low... even down to here."
Fer sighed, and then moved towards the door that his brothers were hiding behind, knocking gently on it with one knuckle.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"Peio, Ekaitz, it's me. I'm not totally sure who those guys were, but they might have been more of the cultists that the usurper was working with. The party I've been with scattered them when we approached, but we're going to go hunt them down now."
-
Gawen paced restlessly as Fer spoke with his brothers; her grip on her lance was hard enough to make the leather in her gauntlets creak.
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)"They're going to pay for this, one way or another. I swore to defend Alvada with all my heart, and by all that exists above and below, I'm going to." She shook her head, continuing to mutter to herself. "I just don't understand, what kind of maneuvering. . . how did this happen?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/EfkNlXM.png) "They might return with reinforcements. That would save our energy."
-
The door got jostled open by Fer's older brother, who had recognized the voice.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1w3jr97kbelq1ei/peio.png?raw=1): Fer! Ekaitz, it's Fer! Glad to see you're safe. Come in.
Ekaitz was in the back working a book page by page like the mages of the party had done before. He was introducing it into the Vault. But the books were now more haphazardly spread around, like they didn't have time to put them back in their place.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1w3jr97kbelq1ei/peio.png?raw=1): We were still working on the Vault when all of this just... exploded. We started hurrying when we noticed the robed book burners. Rather than waste time fighting them off, we decided to let them go through the less important books first.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1uclm514lrmzqt1/ekaitz.png?raw=1): Whoever it was that said- Ekaitz was just finished with the book and approached the rest. That they'd be back, they're right. And we aren't finished yet.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "I suppose that save us the effort of looking for them."
-
Fer grimaced and nodded at Peio's words.
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):"Don't worry. You'll have all the time that you need. They're not going to be getting in there at all, because it's hard to do so when they're dead. I'm going to want to step outside of the library for that, I think. I don't want to use my specialty of magic inside the library, especially Meteor."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1w3jr97kbelq1ei/peio.png?raw=1): Don't worry about the library! Don't worry about Meteor! Libraries can be rebuilt, copies can be remade!
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1uclm514lrmzqt1/ekaitz.png?raw=1): Don't go outside the library, Fer. We should stick together as much as possible. If they come here, your friends and the walls can hold them until we're done, and then we get out of here. All of us. Our family should be waiting at the docks already.
-
Fer sighed.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"I suppose I could stay in the library for now... I'm afraid that I won't be leaving with you two, though. I committed to this group some time ago now, and I've committed to what they're doing too. I have my doubts about Ethan here, but he's going to be better... with probably some of us to serve as advisors than that usurper, and I'll be damned if I give up on what I've been travelling the world to do, too."
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):"...and if there's something you two should understand, it's that we can do it, too. We've been doing a lot of fighting, now, and we've become strong. Very strong. I was at the royal court when the usurper showed up -- he sent an entire mercenary company to kill us before we could get out."
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):"...that mercenary company doesn't exist, anymore. We're reaching a sort of... threshold of momentum, now. This... retinue, I suppose it is now, is moving forward so powerfully that we can't be stopped anymore, and that includes me. So... I won't be leaving, but you don't need to worry about me either. I think that we are going to succeed."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1uclm514lrmzqt1/ekaitz.png?raw=1): So that's what happened! The whole town in chaos because of that usurper!
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1w3jr97kbelq1ei/peio.png?raw=1): Ahaha, excellent! I'm so glad our little brother has grown so powerful, a real Jasso!
While Peio patted Fer on the shoulder, Ekaitz uncovered a large stack of Meteor tomes on the table.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1w3jr97kbelq1ei/peio.png?raw=1): Thanks for staying. Really, I- we appreciate your help.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1uclm514lrmzqt1/ekaitz.png?raw=1): If things got dire we were planning to use these to buy us more time.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1w3jr97kbelq1ei/peio.png?raw=1): We can entrust you with these to cover our backs while we finish our work with the books, yes? Once we're done, even the three of us alone could carve a path out of any situation!
//Fer will have unlimited uses of Meteor next map!
-
(https://i.imgur.com/Ld1jvzK.png) "Oh? With so many tomes, it is safe to say you will be burning a lot of people today. So be it, let us light this place with the flames of their carcasses!"
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "...But as they are still probably preparing for their next raid, I do have a question for you and your family; how many books related to Liches does this library contain?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/EfkNlXM.png) "I guess I was right. And yes Vortai, that saves us the trouble of looking for them."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1uclm514lrmzqt1/ekaitz.png?raw=1): As a matter of fact, we do. But it will have to wait.
Soon enough, the smell of burning inundated the library, indicating that the book burners had arrived in force.

(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "Ah, good...good. Later it is then."
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "So, will we stand our ground and wait for them to meet their demise or will we open the gates and go for the hunt?"

Hold and summon a sword Golem on F, 2 after Fer moves.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)"If you want us, we're right here!" Gawen burst out of the doors, aiming a swift strike at the first enemy in line before returning to cover as quickly as she'd come out.
F8, Iron Lance, canto to F5
-
Fer rubbed his hands as he looked at the giant stack of Meteor tomes, and he honestly couldn't help but let a grin spread across his face.
(https://i.imgur.com/wDAHPrC.png):"Well, honestly, this becomes something of an opportunity... I doubt I'll get the opportunity to use this kind of magic this freely again, hahah..."
And then the smell of bookburning set Fer back into the expression of furious determination that he had been wearing so much today.
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):"But it sounds like it is about time to do this, then. They're going to regret ever stepping foot inside this place."
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):"Gawen, I trust that you can hold those doors. And, yes, Vortai, sure."
With a Meteor tome in hand, Fer backed away from the pillar, speaking as he flipped it open and finally cast an entire spell of Meteor.
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):"I'm not going to have to be close anyway."
F1, drop a muthafuckin METEOR on Executioner A.

Gawen busts the door open and charges at the vagrant hiding behind the pillar, which stops the lance. Gawen's armor stops the thrown knife as well.

A prodigious number of foes were pressing down on Claude and Gawen -- Gawen fell, but Claude proceeded to fight in a way that shocked and awed even Fer. Still, as incredibly impressive as that was, Claude was still not going to be able to take all of those foes on without any help -- he was shaking and swaying already, and those magic-using zealots were already a real risk even without that.
And so Fer called another meteor down.
Drop a M e t e o r on Inquisitor A.

But the group hitting their defensive stride and their reinforcements finally broke the fanatics' will, and they turned around to flee the library once more.

(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "Ha! Not so zealous now, are they?"
Lavinia moved over to help Claude up.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Looks like we did finish up before Lysander and the others got back, after all."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):"It's such a terrible shame even to lose that old building... there's history in it."
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"But the important books are alright and we're alright so--"
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"--Claude, just hold a moment and I'll--"
Fer grunted in pain as casting magic out of memory without the sigils actually there in written form to shape it took a significant amount of energy from his body, but in return Claude was suffused with healing energy to help Lavinia make him more ambulatory,
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"--let's go, let's go, let's go!"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/7oQu0pd.png) "Truly a waste of valuable books and a good structure."

(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1w3jr97kbelq1ei/peio.png?raw=1): Fer, you managed to learn to invoke magic on your own! But there'll be time to be impressed later. Let's go!
More balls of fire and darkness fell on the fleeing fanatics, clearing the way for the group as they healed and escaped the burning library. As they left down the street towards the ports, they heard the building finally collapse behind them, while a small group of people ran towards them.
It was the group that had gone with Carmen.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): I knew you'd be alright, but it's a relief to see you all here. They also brought new weapons with them.
//Lysander, Ashlyn and Marlow are back in!
Lysander gets Silver Blade!
Ashlyn gets Short Axe!
Marlow gets Silver Javelin!
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1uclm514lrmzqt1/ekaitz.png?raw=1): We have to go check up on the family as soon as possible. They might leave without us, we told them we'd stay behind.
Peio seized Fer by the shoulders.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1w3jr97kbelq1ei/peio.png?raw=1): I'm glad you decided to follow my footsteps, but you're going with them, right? If so, you should take this, in my experience it's more useful and less tiring than healing by yourself.
Fer gets Physic!
-
(https://i.imgur.com/7oQu0pd.png) "While true, we still didn't manage to get rid of all fanatics so I suspect they will be reporting this to their leaders."
(https://i.imgur.com/Ld1jvzK.png) "...I assume we will be heading off soon, but I do intend to return to discuss a pending topic when possible."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "Right. But buildings can be rebuilt, and books can be rewritten. Fer has whole life to build a library grander than this one and fill it with ten times more books, no? Now let's go, time's wasting!"
-
Fer was silent for a long moment after the noisy collapse of the Jasso library -- and then he was seized by the shoulders and had a staff shoved into his hands.
(https://i.imgur.com/dAdj8Lo.png):"W-wha, uh--"
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png) :"Right. Yeah, I'll be sticking with them for a while. We've got a lot of things to deal with to get this usurper out and I guess put an end to all the chaos out here."

(https://i.postimg.cc/NFQxLytK/amberly-default.png): "We'll make sure Fer returns to you safe and sound. And after everything settles down, I'd be happy to speak with the House of Knowledge and see what they can do to help restore your collection."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1w3jr97kbelq1ei/peio.png?raw=1): Of course, same as you. And if... during your travels you happen... to see Xanti, tell him that... tell him what happened, not in a bad way of course, and that we want to hear how he's doing-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1uclm514lrmzqt1/ekaitz.png?raw=1): Tell him that we don't think he's a fanatic anymore, that we learned the difference today, that we'd like to meet him again if he's alright with it, and that we're sorry. If you see him. Please.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1w3jr97kbelq1ei/peio.png?raw=1): Our apologies also extend to the both of you, for how we acted previously.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/GXlAXdO.png)"Good to see everyone alive. We've little more time for goodbyes, though. The usurpers are still crawling all over this place, and as much as I have the will to carve my way through all of them, I doubt that we could."
-
Fer let out a very long breath at the request that Peio and Ekaitz made.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png) :"Well, we've come a long way, then, huh? I can't promise that he'd even want to see me, but if I get the opportunity, I'll explain. And... yeah, it's fine, at this point."
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png) :"Gawen is right, though. It's time to get moving. This city isn't currently a place to just stand around."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/lKndQnl.png)"Good to see that everyone's mostly intact. Seeing the building like that, was wondering. Of course, if anyone could make it out unscathed it's this group. Not much time to swap stories, though."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1w3jr97kbelq1ei/peio.png?raw=1): Alright. We'll be seeing you then. Ekaitz nodded and both of Fer's brothers took off in a different direction from the group.
While the party continued moving to where the Blackbones was docked, Carmen talked to Ethan.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): I don't expect to find much more trouble until we reach the ship, but if it happens- Carmen gripped her old rapier and her new, vicious looking one. We're ready. How able are you at sailing during the night?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "Easy. Ever think how many stronger ships and blockades did we avoid thanks to the night time? I'm not a nobleman, but I AM a seaman. And so is my crew."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): You turned out to be the perfect man for the job, whatever this job turned out to be.
The group finally reached the docks as the sun was setting. The Blackbones was finally within view... but so was the many ships blockading the port, most of them mercenaries or other privateers. However some of these ships were sailing out and being replaced with larger galleons flying the flag of Alvada and flags of some of their noble families.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): It's all up to you now, Captain Ethan.
-
Lysander had stayed quiet since they'd returned to the group, only bothering to hand over the weapon he'd collected to someone more able to use it. They were on a mission, and excessive talking didn't seem to be the right call right now. However, as they approached the harbor...
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Hmm... Captain, I know we used to have some fake flags laying around to help try and lower suspicion... I don't suppose we have any of those still laying around, do we? If we can fake a flag, we might be able to act like we're going to help support the barricade like these other ships and then just slip through once we get close. How many people really know exactly what ship we came on? Either that or steal someone else's ship..."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "We do have an Alvadan flag in cloth storage... unless Claude did find the time to sort through it and throw away old stuff. Then again, who's gonna notice that cloth is dirty and threadbare in middle of the night?"
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "Good one, Lysander." Ethan raised his hand to, seemingly, pat Lysander on head, but just gave him a brief shoulderpat instead.
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "We will be going with Lysander's idea, everyone."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"I... just have one thing to say before we go off then, since it's not entirely impossible we'll get into a fight and then I won't have the time."
Fer stood in front of as much of the crew as he could manage and bowed deeply, and then dropped onto a knee in genuflection.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"I thank all of you... from the deepest reaches of my heart, for what you've done for me. You all put yourselves at risk of life and limb in order to defend my family and our library, and you did so without any promise of reward on your parts. You saved centuries of history from the torch, and made sure that humankind's knowledge lives on to take more steps forward in the future, but you also saved what my family has worked on for generation after generation after generation of single-minded pursuit. I don't think I have or will ever have the words to express all of my gratitude and how much I owe you, so I will just suffice myself to leave it at this:"
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"I will stand with all of you to the very end, even if it costs me my own life and limb. Captain Ethan, King Narius, whatever role you may take, I will follow you -- and I will follow the rest of your crew, too. I am indebted to you, and I hope that my life's loyalty will be able to pay off that debt."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/EfkNlXM.png) "Thank you, Lavinia. Fermintxo." Claude said, checking his armor and clothes after he was done being healed.
(https://i.imgur.com/EfkNlXM.png) "And you're welcome."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/Ld1jvzK.png) "I will keep those exact words in my mind, Fermintxo of the Jasso family."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Yeah. Glad you're okay," Lavinia said to Claude, her tone perhaps a bit softer than usual. "Glad we're all back together, too."
She glanced towards Ethan and Lysander, who seemed to be getting along a little better than they had in a while, on and off. Then, towards Vortai.
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "And don't say it like that, he'll start thinking he said something wrong."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/8QBwBls.png) "Oh? But he did not, it is more a matter of memorizing those important words. After all, promises are very important."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): You can all be socially awkward at sea.
It was finally time to board the ship once again, this time no longer as privateers of Alvada. Before setting sail, Carmen spoke with Ethan.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Where are we going to go first, then? The House of Scholars?
The ship wouldn't be able to go beyond the capital's nearby waters unless they put their plan in practice, though.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/59oBq1Q.png) "Correct. It's the closest one if I remember correctly."
-
Carmen nodded and moved out of the way while Ethan and his crew prepared the ship to set sail. The old alvadan flag was found and set on its pole, and then they waited until it was dark enough for the disguise to be convincing enough.
Well after the sun had set, the Blackbones began moving again. With the ship disguised and in motion, and Ethan back to his usual clothes, the group approached the blockade line slowly... until one of the ships left rank and turned towards them.
But instead of intercepting them, the Alvadan ship was merely letting the Blackbones relieve them and take their place in the line. Where, of course, they broke away from once the other ship was far enough.
The group had made it out of Duo Alva alive.
Somewhere in the Royal Castle, Narius was stomping down a hallway, followed by one of his subordinates.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/y6kcda6sohag9fn/narius.png?raw=1): You incompetent clowns! How did you let them get away, not just from the castle, but from the entire city? Do you even know how to search?
I'm-I'm sorry, Lord, they barreled through one of the backdoors before we could get to them, and then it's like they disappeared into-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/y6kcda6sohag9fn/narius.png?raw=1): They must be around somewhere then, no? Did you find them?
N-no, not yet-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/y6kcda6sohag9fn/narius.png?raw=1): Then you're still useless! Let's see if this man is less so.
Narius and his frustration outlet finally reached their destination: former Regent Paon.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/y6kcda6sohag9fn/narius.png?raw=1): Very well, I hope we won't have any problem? You know what would happen otherwise, yes?
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): No, Lord Narius. I'm afraid I was... mislead.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/y6kcda6sohag9fn/narius.png?raw=1): I'll let it pass for now, but do tell me if you found out something about our misleaders.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): I have gathered from one of the... religiously inclined that they were seen inside one of the city's libraries. However, the building collapsed when more of your men arrived. The search for their ship in the port is still underway.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/y6kcda6sohag9fn/narius.png?raw=1): Either they're buried under the rubble, or somehow they managed to get away with their ship, it should have been found by now. Whatever then, put a hefty bounty on their heads for being pirates, rebels, so that if they're out there they don't even think of coming back. I'll get that thing ready and go on more important business... Like the coronation. Start working on that.
Yes, Lord Narius! The subordinate left while Paon just bowed, but Narius kept walking past him. After Paon was left alone, he went to a secluded part of the castle and knocked on a door.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): Firebrick. Paon waited for the response from beyond the door.
Cadet blue.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/rfezqv95xjnjxsz/paon.png?raw=1): I'll be brief, Hakim. He seems to be more focused on the crown than on the captain. They'll be wanted by Alvada soon, try to send the message to them somehow. Paon left, and there was silence.
~~Chapter 8: The Lie~~
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/4vq1dqsibzwr3wo/ch8a.png?raw=1)
The Blackbones was swift, and even with taking care to avoid any Alvadan ships, only a day and half later the Port of Di was visible. This time they wouldn't have to stop in the city itself first, they knew their destination was the House of Scholars once more.
The port was still a ways to go, but soon the group would have to go inland.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): You have been to the House of Scholars before? Did you have much trouble getting there the first time?
-
"Lately trouble follows where I go, it seems." Ethan went out of his cabin, adjusting his gloves and patting down his... leather armor.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Finally... my ship, the sea, and my old clothes. I just couldn't keep that damn cape on. And the itching's gone, too..." Ethan rubbed his shoulder and stepped closer to the railing.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Vortai knows the way the best, it's his home."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): What about Alvadan ships in the port? We are probably wanted by now, anything other than privateers might give us trouble.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"I could do what I have done previously and pose as the captain of the vessel. Granted, it may be. . . less effective than it was previously, given everything, but it's possible that my connection to the 'pretender' has not been widely spread." Gawen frowned. "I would rather not rely on that method again, however, as planning on a rumor not reaching the ears of a particular listener is. . . dubious."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"As reliable as the... direct... option has proven for us, I think I would like to avoid it if it is at all possible. Vortai... do you know of any secondary ports here, or service harbors for the House of Scholars, or any such other alternate points we could dock at?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "Oh? So you require my assistance. Well, there is in fact an alternative port, a smaller one located not too far away from the city port. I would imagine it is more of a secondary or perhaps 'emergency' port in case the main one is under maintenance or too full."
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "And as the House of Scholars is located in the desert...There are plenty of alternative routes to reach it. Assuming we do manage to get through the other port without much trouble, that is."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/MuXF2Ch.png) "We should avoid letting ourselves be seen as much as possible. Rumors spread fast and far, and as milady suggests, trusting they won't reach a certain set of ears is a fool's gamble. Especially when you're as publicly known as we are to be by now."
(https://i.imgur.com/MuXF2Ch.png) "I would suggest we avoid using even this smaller port you speak of if we are at all able, and see if we can't find another spot along the coast to drop anchor. Every ounce of obfuscation counts."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/EfkNlXM.png) "Even dropping anchor on a non-treacherous coastal spot where our ship won't be spotted or get in trouble before we return to it requires so much care and planning we might as well try our luck with the small port."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Time is of the essence. I don't believe we have a choice; we will simply need to land in one of these ports and face the opposition as it comes."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/MuXF2Ch.png) "I won't say I like it, but I defer to your decision, milady. To the port we shall go, present company willing."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "If an agreement was reached, the secondary port it is then."
-
The Blackbones arrived at the secondary port a significant distance away from Di. It was far away enough that no errant ships would notice the Blackbones, and the port itself was deserted, with not a single soul in sight.
After reorganizing and disembarking, the group set out to the House of Scholars once again.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): It is my understanding that you first came here because of the Orb, right?
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "That is true. Why do you ask?"
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Has it occurred to you that you may have been taught wrong in how to use the Orb? The situation in the throne room could have been avoided if it had pointed at the right places from the start.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"What do you mean? Is your theory that we were originally directed to fake artifacts and that this second set had been sitting there the entire time? I had been operating under the assumption that we had the real artifacts, that Narius destroyed them, but then that there is some sort of involved failsafe that caused them to reform. This is... well, now that I say all of that out loud, it sounds overcomplex, and I suppose that the whole "test" theming we went through could have just been showmanship, but I saw no indication that they were fakes and I don't understand why one would set fakes up that way."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "...Considering these are artifacts that in theory could cause plenty of destruction, I feel like this is a reasonable theory. Setting the fakes like that did work, didn't it?"
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "After all, we were under the assumption we had the real artifacts until now and the 'real' ones were left untouched. So in a normal scenario this probably would be enough to fool those seeking it."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/LQ9aKr7.png) "This does make sense. I am sure the journey wasn't easy for you all, but my understanding is that gathering the artifacts was relatively simple, all things considered. For objects of real power, it would be utterly foolhardy to allow anyone who please to find them so long as they've an orb, a map, and the time on their hands. Locking their true locations with the amulet milord Ethan wears is quite ingenious; that way only the real, genuine heir may find them."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Can't say I understand most of it, but are you saying the abbess was working with the enemy, or hid this from the captain for another reason?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/LQ9aKr7.png) "Both are quite possible. Perhaps their plan was to delay you all until the false heir had assembled his own set of artifacts, then stop milord's coronation and rid himself of us all."
(https://i.imgur.com/6tbEQ8z.png) "Then again, that doesn't explain how he came across three artifacts more powerful than your own..."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): It does sound convoluted, but the problem is that it worked, and very well at that. Now everyone thinks that usurper is the real Narius, and if it wasn't for our escape and for Ethan's amulet there would be nothing we could do to change that.
Carmen took a deep breath and released the grip she unconsciously had on her sword.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): So I would like to have some answers to this whole situation in addition to the real Treasures.
A couple days of travel later the group was once again at the gates of the House of Scholars. This time, there were no bandits, no last village before the sand, no people. Just the sand and the questions still unanswered.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): So this is the House of Scholars... Will there be any issue entering-
The door suddenly opened, cutting off Carmen. The same acolyte that opened the door previously when they first arrived at the House of Scholars was behind the door again.
Welcome back, Amberly, Vortai.
-
Ethan moved to the front.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Where is the Abbess? Were you watching our approach?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "Greetings. I do apologize for Ethan's hurry, but during the time we had been out learning things took a very unexpected and undesired direction."
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "So we need to speak to the Abbess right now, this is an emergency."
-
Fer had spent a lot of the walk up to the House of Scholars silent, his hand pinching the bridge of his nose in some frustration -- he wasn't going to say it and ruin spirits, but the violence in Demura took on an especially disgusting irony. They'd ransacked a fucking museum, and slaughtered the city's guard, for fake trinkets that were now destroyed. Damn it all, he hadn't wanted to believe it. But there was nothing to do for it but move on.
He couldn't help but sigh a little, after which he straightened himself up a bit and took in their current location.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"To tell the truth... I really didn't think that I'd ever end up actually going to the House of Scholars, even given my profession. It's a shame for the circumstances, but they are also what brought me here."
Xanti was here, too, by the sounds of it. Fer wasn't sure how that would go, but it was nervewracking in its own right.
-
Opening the door fully, the acolyte let them in.
Uh, very well, I'll lead you to the waiting room- The voice of the Abbess suddenly filled the entry hall.
Skip the waiting, son, just send them directly to my study.
Ah, understood, Abbess.
The acolyte led the group straight to the Abbess' study, in the deepest part of the House of Scholars. The old woman opened her door to greet the party.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): It's good to see you all well and here, so now I can ask you what the hell happened with the Royal Treasures?! I've received news of what happened in Duo Alva!
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "They've been- wait, what? How do you know about that? Aren't you, like, stuffed in here all the time? We didn't see anyone on our way here. How did the news reach you, old woman?"
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): I may be, but not every single one of my acolytes is! You should know, you're with two of them. And news this big is sure to get around real fast, even to the sandy asscrack of Alvada!
-
Ethan crossed his arms.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Then you know everything we know, too. A guy showed up with 'true' treasures then destroyed the ones we had."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"The working theory that some of my compatriots came up with, ma’am, is that the damned things were fake the whole time, and that the amulet has to be used with the orb to reveal the location of the actual artifacts, meaning we’ve got to hunt them down. One is here."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "Yes, it seems the previous artifacts we got our hands on were nothing but a distraction. But considering your current reaction and the fact you are still here...You weren't aware about this either, were you?"
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Or you thought Ethan would already be dead or captured.
The Abbess was about to answer rudely when suddenly she showed an expression of sudden realization. Now more calm, the Abbess invited the group into her study.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): I know what happened. Come in and let me tell you a story.
She sat down on a comfy chair and began the story.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): When I was first ordained Abbess, a long time ago, all this matter of the Orb and the Treasures was not unknown to me, but also not of my particular interest. But there was a man who arrived with news related to it. He looked a bit like you, Ethan, but the resemblance didn't make me think of anything when you came by. Now that it's obvious that you're either a doppleganger of the late King or his twin brother, it may have been an ancestor of yours.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): Whoever he was exactly I don't know, but he wanted to speak with me about the Orb and the Treasures, telling me that within my lifetime I would see them resurface. Not only that, he brought a magical ring, saying that it was imperative that it were to be prevented of any use, because it could help cause the calamity the Treasures were meant to avoid. I sensed great power and great mystery within that ring, and neither I or anyone else was unable to decipher or bring forth its power.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): I informed myself more about these Treasures, their history, their relation with the Orb and the Reckoning, and I ended up believing the man. I learned how the Orb worked, but I was still missing a piece of information that the man didn't mention: the Amulet. So I was the one who was tricked first, and this trickery was passed down from me to you.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): It is clear to me this is a conspiracy that has been in the works for many more years that you have been alive. This whole Treasure hunt, a setup in which I have been conned into helping. But that doesn't mean there isn't a calamity coming, and if what you say is true, and one of the true Treasures is in the House of Scholars, then it is most definitely the ring that I locked in the White Room behind me.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): It has to be true. The Orb shed a royal emblem when exposed to the Amulet. If that ring is a true Treasure, the Amulet will also interact with it.
The Abbess rose up from her chair.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): Then it's settled, I'll retrieve the ring now. I warn you, this might take a while. Normally the White Room is one of the most guarded secrets of the House of Scholars, but this is proving to be an exceptional time, and whoever planned this knows about it already. The White Room is something like a safe room, or a vault, standing here from time immemorial. It is said it was built by the Old Gods, and the House of Scholars was built around it. It has many security measures, both to get in as to get out, only learned by each Abbot and Abbess down the line, and as such, only I will be going in to retrieve the ring. Is that clear?
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Sure. I want something to eat in the meanwhile."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "...Not wanting to question your conditions but I do believe we are...'Rushing at the time'? I think that's how it is said."
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "I doubt the fake king has intentions of letting us live, so chances are he is tracking us down...So if this happens to be a slow process, wouldn't it be better to send someone to help you to get it done faster?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"That run-around we've been given with the false artifacts has caused real damage... if there's some sort of ancient conspiracy at play here, I hope they at least saw that sort of thing something. I don't want all of that to just have been pointless waste of life."
Fer let out a short sigh, and then Vortai's words seemed to trigger some sort of realization.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"Oh shit, a-ah, e-eh, sorry for the usage of profanity in your presence, ma'am."
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"But... if "Narius", quote unquote, IS having us successfully followed, well enough to have forces coming here, then it's probably much better that we're here to meet those forces rather to just allow them to come to the House of Scholars unhindered. There's no guarantee they'd actually attack, but if they did... it would be nothing short of a world-scale travesty not to defend it."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "Ah. So you noticed the issue as well. I am hoping we can get this done fast exactly to hopefully take their attention away from here-It would be very unfortunate and bothersome to fight their troops on this place."
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "We are in a situation we should not take things lightly, so even if we currently aren't dealing with them, I am sure he is looking for ways to track us down...That is assuming he didn't already manage to do so."
-
Gawen had begun pacing in the meantime, the tension of the situation starting to get to her.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"Why play with forces like these? If the tales are true, then all of this trickery with the relics is putting the world in grave danger. Surely there are easier ways to enact a coup." She shook her head. "False Treasures. . . All that business with Demura, too, in pursuit of a lie."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Hmph. Knowing Domiria they probably were in on it. Isn't it convenient that now Ethan's wanted in both Domiria and Alvada? Not that he wasn't wanted in Domiria before, but now he's public enemy number one.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/MuXF2Ch.png) "For some there is no risk too great in the pursuit of power. Like as not, whoever was responsible for deceiving the Abbess simply doesn't care how close their ambitions are to causing disaster, milady."
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/NFQxLytK/amberly-default.png): "I do not understand how they could be tracking us though. Surely we would have seen the sails of another ship if they had been close enough to follow our own. Could they be tracking the amulet or the orb magically, somehow? And if so, is there some way to hide them so we are not being chased across the world?
"Of course, our enemies might guess that we'd come here and send forces anyway, but that's a separate problem."
-
Lysander shook his head.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"A thing you learn after enough time at sea... Always prepare for someone showing up when you don't want them to do so. If they know anyone who knows about our journey, even just the bare bones of it, it's likely they know we came here before. Or even if they just paid attention to the people we have in our group. Add in the possibility of magical tracking, like you said, and the chances of them coming here get much higher than is comfortable. We should be ready for anything at this point, now that we have everyone against us."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)"This is far too elaborate to be a ploy to snare Ethan, or to be a power grab. Think about it. If this impostor wanted the throne, why bother with leading us on? It would be simpler and easier to simply appear one day and claim to be Narius. Similarly, it's not as if Domiria needed to drum up the opposition of an entire country for one pirate. It just doesn't add up. . ."
-
The Abbess seemed disappointed at the tameness of Fer's cursing, muttering something like "I've said worse after stubbing my toe." but let them continue.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): I have no idea why, but it's been brewing for a long time. Might even be more elaborate than you think. But if they come here we'll get a good warning ahead, don't you think we have people watching the desert from afar?
The Abbess stood up from her comfy chair and walked towards the wall.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): It's about time I got off my ass and went to grab the damn ring already. And quit yer bitchin', it shouldn't take long. And no, I can't just have someone else go get it because this is not only a high secret that you're only seeing because of the current emergency, nobody else knows how to work this arcane piece of vault. I'll only tell you this: each time the outer door opens, the way to open it may change at random. And that's just the first door.
And she opened the wall, which had a hidden door within it. Beyond it, as far as the people could peek, it was a pure metallic white chamber with a few unintelligible symbols on the walls. Then she closed it behind her.
Oi! What the hell? Someone's been here before! Then a long string of muffled cursing came from behind the wall, along with another voice!
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/st5iubdkycuhn4w/zaku.png?raw=1): Ahahahaha! I've been waiting for this moment a long time. Now that the master has given the order, it's time to take over the House of Scholars, and at the same time, eliminate you, Ethan! Prepare to face the Old Gods' wrath!
Is that Zaku?! That sonofa*$%&*%$%&!&*!&* must have been the one to take the key I need to open the vault again!
Zaku's voice resonated more potently this time, spreading throughout the entirety of the building.
Attention to all present! The Abbess has been attacked by her guests at her office! By Atan's will, you must save her!
The announcement had likely turned everyone in the House of Scholars against the group, but it had given them some information as well. Vortai knew where the announcement room, and thus Zaku, was located, and it was adjacent to the Abbess' office.
Meanwhile Amberly knew, there was no Old God named Atan.

Lavinia knocked on the wall that the abbess had entered.

(https://i.imgur.com/aRKAb5A.png) "After all, this is not the first time we had been around here-And me and Amberly in specific had been residing here for a while, so we aren't all strangers..."
(https://i.imgur.com/NQekuVP.png) "...Oh, well. I suppose they will have to learn a harsh lesson if they so desire to fight us without thinking."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/MuXF2Ch.png) "Ah, blind obedience. How I detest it so. It seems we shall grant these fools sight for the first time."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"Now, hold on... if it is at all possible I'd at least try to talk them down from accepting this totally uncritically! I... would... I would like to avoid another Demura, if it's at all a possibility."

(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "The loud person who was speaking moments ago. I know where they are located at, it is a room adjacent to the Abbess' office."

(https://i.imgur.com/LQ9aKr7.png) "I will advise you not to let your guard down in doing so, Fer. The blind are apt to ignore anything they hear unless it comes from he who holds their leashes."
-
Lavinia gave the wall another knock, her other hand resting on her lance.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Just checking. If we can let her out it'd be clear enough that what that 'Zaku' said was a lie."
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/tRkgk5D0/amberly-surprise.png): "This makes no sense at all! I would have thought that members of the House of Scholars would be wise enough to not instantly believe such an outrageous claim. Especially when it's our second visit here and the Abbess has personally met with us!
"And...and who is this 'Atan'? There's no Old God by that name! I wonder if that word is the trigger phrase for some sort of powerful enchantment that the Scholars are under..."
-
The Abbess responded to the knock.
Ocupado! Did you think this was one of those magic doors? No dice!
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Trigger phrase? No, what if it's just a code phrase? The Abbess said that ring has been here for many years now, but that's not the only thing planted in this place. If you ask me, this Zaku has been infiltrating the House of Scholars with his own people, waiting until he got the order to strike.
Zaku is one of the most veteran scholars around, and yet what you say makes sense! He was always on his own, and I heard him muttering about some Atan nonsense by himself. Get me that sonofabitch's ass on a platter!
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Just in case I am wrong, try reasoning with the scholars incoming regardless. I doubt it's possible that every single scholar is an infiltrator, but if there's any confusion it will present an opportunity for them.

(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"Infiltrators...? Well, that certainly makes a fair deal of sense, and also suggests perhaps proximity to quote unquote Narius's whole scheme. If you're infiltrating the House of Scholars, you probably have a vested interest of gaining some sort of tangible power from what the House studies... The usurper is definitely somebody who fits that category, although there of course may well be others."
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"It makes this whole episode much more palatable, too. I would be MUCH happier dealing with what is in reality a threat to the House of Scholars rather than more or less assaulting it. But... yes, I believe we ought to be trying to separate the non-infiltrators from their midst."

-
Lysander had been nervously wishing he was behind Ashlyn as opposed to in front of her, but at the mention of the new man approaching being related to Fer, he brightened up.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Oh! Fer, do you think you could talk to him then? Ask him to explain to everyone here that we're not bad guys?"
-
Fer jumped a little at the sight of his final brother, and then cleared his throat nervously, looking to Lysander.
(https://i.imgur.com/dAdj8Lo.png):"Haha uh well it's kind of complicated Lysander but I think so uh--"
He cleared his throat again, and then raised his own voice in turn.
(https://i.imgur.com/dAdj8Lo.png):"X-- Xanti! Ah, man, I... figured I'd end up seeing you in here, but I didn't think it would be in the middle of fighting bec"
Fer ran out of breath and had to take another breath to keep babbling.
(https://i.imgur.com/dAdj8Lo.png):"Because I didn't expect there would be any fighting because we aren't actually here to invade and that "Zaku" guy is just ly"
Another breath.
(https://i.imgur.com/dAdj8Lo.png):"X- Xanti-- I..."
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"Look... we can-- we should talk later! But for right now, just know that we're working with the abbess!"
Fer rubbed his throat a little painfully.
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): Fer, we can't talk later! Where is the Abbess? Why is Zaku saying that she's under attack?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/dAdj8Lo.png):"I didn't mean talk about this later! I-- the Abbess is in the vault, but Zaku has the key, so she's locked in! He's just lying! Amberly, uh-- help me out here, uh00 tell him about the "Atan" thing!"
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): What vault are you talking about? Look, just catch your breath and your thoughts for a second, alright? Let me deal with the others. Xanti then spoke at the scholars ready to attack the group. Stop for a moment, people!
But the scholars' response disappointed him.
No chance! Zaku has said the Abbess is in danger and the intruders will be neutralized!
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): What do you mean intruders? He is my brother, and there is one of the scholars there too! Vortai, that's you, right?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/8QBwBls.png) "Fer, your behavior is extremely amusing, even if I don't think this is the best occasion to act like you are choking on an apple."
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "It is very obvious you two have some problems to deal with later, but for now try to keep your mind focused, Fer."
Vortai turned his attention to the other Jasso and gave a shrug.
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "Yes, it is me, Xanti. Didn't expect to meet you again under these circumstances, but to translate what Fer was trying to say, this Zaku is the reason we are being targeted as intruders."
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "We are guessing he is working under the command of someone who is currently hunting us down. Our intention of the visit was to get an important artifact that the Abbess had stored in the White Room. That is what Fer meant by 'vault', she is locked in the White Room and Zaku has the key. So under this very awkward situation, he rallied the scholars against us."
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "At this moment we aren't sure if the scholars were merely waiting for this moment to arise and were just undercover or if this was just Zaku fooling them that easily."
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/tRkgk5D0/amberly-surprise.png): "Mister Jasso please, you must help us convince the other scholars. That Zaku person mentioned an 'Atan' when he told everyone to attack us. I believe it must have something to do with the way everyone except yourself turned hostile so suddenly. If you know anything about it, please share with us; we have no desire to kill the scholars."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): White Room? Never heard of it, but the House of Scholars does have its secrets... That may be one of them.
Are you going to believe these impostors?
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): Well, I can certainly tell you that "For the glory of Atan" is certainly a weird thing to say, when "Atan" is no God I've heard anyone reference. But I don't have to believe them.
Xanti produced a small box with a button, pressing it twice. He then raised it up in the air, where it emitted two short beeps, a long one and a short one.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): This device lets me communicate directly with the Abbess. It's not common, but a few scholars have one, you should know of it. And she has answered me, so I know they're telling the truth. Now back down.
You leave us no choice but to eliminate you as well, then.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): Try it, and you'll find out why I have one of these devices. Fer, can you and your group defend yourself?
-
Fer let out a sigh.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"Yeah, I wasn't really ready for this, even after all this time, sorry."
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):"But, yes, we are exceptionally capable of defending ourselves. We've already dispatched a mercenary company and almost an entire splinter cult of bookburners, all on our own. You won't have to worry about me this time around, Xanti."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): Good to hear. I'm going to clear this up with the rest. If you see anyone still come this way, they're fair game. I'll come by once everyone has a clear idea of what's going on. As for you traitors...
Xanti gave the "scholars" in between them the trademark fiery look of an angry Jasso family member.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): Enjoy this parting gift, and pray that you're not alive when I return.
171+5-15-16=145. Autohit!
Training Officer A is silenced!
S- The traitor's leader was quickly silenced by Xanti before he turned around with his group and left.
-
Fer let out a quieter, more relieved sigh, and then turned to their foes.
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):"If I'm to be quite honest, knowing that you lot are agents who've infiltrated this place makes me not feel all that bad about this after all."
Fer moves to E10, busts an Arcfire in Templar C's ass.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "Yes, the White Room is apparently extremely important and a secret from what I can understand. And has an odd and complex way to reach the treasure being held inside it, which is why Abbess herself went in."
(https://i.imgur.com/8QBwBls.png) "Oh. So they really are agents, good to know. No reason to hold back now, yes?
Vortai waited for Xanti to leave before turning his attention to Fer again.
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "What do you mean by 'I wasn't really ready for this', Fer? Is there some sort of grave issue between you and your brother?"

Fer became a whirlwind of magic and red and gold fabric... and not entirely of his own will. Still, if these sonsofbitches were going to try to kill him, at this point was at least happy to return the favor - something he did quite successfully. Of course, getting a huge furrow carved down his chest and stomach by a wickedly sharp blade hurt incredibly... but it wasn't the first time.

Claude had stopped by Lavinia and rested one of his throwing franciscas on his right shoulder while waiting for the time to break through. That was when Carmen spoke up.
Quiet. Can you hear that?
(https://i.imgur.com/EfkNlXM.png) "What did you hear?" He tried to focus on his hearing in an attempt to figure out what she was talking about.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/iqXiz4P.png) "Fer's brother did say anyone else coming was fair game."
Lavinia rolled her shoulders, ignoring the wound one of the scholars had inflicted on her in the last scuffle.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Are we going to breach the door on these cowards?"
-
A low rumbling could be heard, but it was difficult to determine from which direction.

Claude partially unsheathed—with the hand that wasn't holding the throwing ax—his brand-new heavy blade and stared at its sharpened edge as if to try and use it as a mirror before letting it fall back into its scabbard. No time to play around.
(https://i.imgur.com/EfkNlXM.png) "Since Marlow's going that way to take care of a chest, if there's anyone here who can unlock a door without breaking it down, it's probably best you do it now before we find out the source of those hurried footsteps."
After the door is opened move to H17 and AX Warrior Monk D a question. With the Francisca.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/MuXF2Ch.png) "I may be able to help with that."
Blake moves to the door, kneeling down in front of it and removing his knife from its sheath. He inserts the tip into the lock and fiddles with it for a few moments, before it opens with a loud click.
(https://i.imgur.com/cBUz9rP.png) "There. An old party trick of mine. I never thought it would be useful at a time like this."
Blake moves to [F, 16] and Lockpicks the door.

Somewhat awkwardly, by the time Fer actually got into the battle, most of the initial coordinated fire seemed to have been dealt out, leaving him... mostly facing untouched enemies. Oh well. That just meant that he was going to have to either do very well and kill his foe in one hit, or do reasonably well and torch them into being close enough.

Despite how hardened he had become in some respects, Fer found that his eyebrows couldn't help but jump right into his hairline at the sound of Vortai's summoned phantom speaking in a booming voice promising death.

Nonetheless, Fer continued to make his contributions to the painful deaths of their opponents.

Carmen sighed at the spectacle Amberly put and turned to the other group of flanking enemies.

K10 and baordax the door!

Ethan tackles the door, but it's solidly barred from the other side with several wood boards and furniture. It would seem pointless to try, but Ethan rears up his axe again, and the unexpected happens...
A mysterious shine surrounds Ethan for a split second, before the axe makes contact, completely obliterating the door! In the room beyond, several cultists, including Zaku, are showered by splinters and bits of the door and the furniture holding it closed. Zaku was holding what was assumed to be the key to the vault, a white disc, in one hand, and imbuing it with dark energies with a sword in the other, before the door exploded.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/st5iubdkycuhn4w/zaku.png?raw=1): What? Impossible! That door was held together with a seal spell of high caliber! Stop them!

Zaku then rose from the throne and pocketed the disc key. He unsheathed an engraved sabre as he made his way towards Claude.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/st5iubdkycuhn4w/zaku.png?raw=1): And that includes me. I might be a high priest, but this life is worth sacrificing for the glory of Atan! With one slash, Claude went down, his life energy sapped by the magic sword.

Zaku dies!
~~~~Chapter 8 Complete~~~~
XP: 61/100
Zaku's last words carried through the House's communication system. Immediately after, the rest of the cultists began committing suicide one after the other without any semblance of doubt.
Soon there was nothing but silence. Gawen picked up two things from Zaku's body: a strange rune, and a strange disc.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)
"Rot in hell, the lot of you." She wiped her lance on an unbloodied portion of Zaku's corpse after sliding off her horse. A brief search of his body unveiled yet more strange treasures.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)
"Amberly, Fer, do you recognize these?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/EfkNlXM.png) "Ugh, disgusting fanatics." Claude groaned, propping himself up by using the scabbard of one of his swords for support.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "Cowards."
-
Amberly covered her mouth and fought down the urge to be sick. The cultists' deaths didn't really bother her; the original plan had been to fight them all off, after all. It was the sheer senselessness and suddenness of the mass suicide that upset the nun. Once she was reasonably certain that her lunch was going to stay down, she responded to Gawen's inquiry.
(https://i.postimg.cc/SNSQB0bG/amberly-ce.png): "I...I don't know. Give me a moment to study them, please."
-
Carmen stepped over the cultist corpses into the room and looked over at Gawen.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Did you find anything resembling a key? We should open that vault as soon as possible.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)
"Not unless this disc is one." She handed the item in question to Amberly. "We should search the room for it while someone checks on the Abbess. Perhaps she was able to free herself."
-
Amberly examined the objects carefully.
(https://i.postimg.cc/NFQxLytK/amberly-default.png): "Hmm. I'm afraid I have never seen a disc like this this one before. I suppose it could be a key of some kind, but it doesn't really resemble any keys I'm familiar with. This rune, on the other hand, is a component on a sealing spell. There was a similar rune on the door that the Captain smashed down. It isn't normally placed on small handheld objects, though. Mostly on doors or lockboxes or similar things..."
-
Fer shook his head, bringing himself to a standing position and slowly weaved a combination of basic first aid and of Memory Magic to get himself back to his feet.
(https://i.imgur.com/dAdj8Lo.png):"They're just absolute lunatics... what the- what the hell was all of this about? I mean... it has something to do with "Narius", Zaku mentioned he was taking orders, and he knew who Ethan was but... how deep does this go? Are these guys just throw-away pawns or is this entire usurpation just this deeply insane?"
Left still shaking his head, ultimately Fer sighed.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"I hope Xanti made it through all of that alright. But I suspect he probably is, based on the ease of that Silence, earlier. Man, though... seeing him again in the middle of all of this. What a context. What a context..."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): That will have to wait, I'm afraid.
From the hall, a group of scholars headed by Xanti closed in quickly. Carmen sheathed her weapon, but remained on guard.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): Fer, Vortai! What happened here? I was trying to talk down some people when we heard something through the speakers and then they started killing themselves. You certainly seem to have been keeping busy with them.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/dAdj8Lo.png):"With the suicides, I... barely understand what happened at all. I think that there was some sort of..." Memories of some of the invectives his brothers had used all those years ago with regards to Xanti's more mainline religious involvement flashed through his mind, and wincing slightly at the memory, Fer chose his words carefully. "fringe sect or something that's driving them. Well, uh, I guess that's stating the obvious, but this "Atan" thing is completely new to us too."
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"I think they're almost certainly involved with the usurper at the capital (and, uh, that's sort of- there's sort of a lot involved there), but I can't figure out how much. They wanted us dead and were acting on orders there, but were they also trying to take over the House of Scholars for their own purposes...?"
"As far as we knew, we were just coming here to talk to the Abbess because we needed to find the Treasures again. We had them, or thought we did, and then they were in a way scattered by a guy pretending to be the long-lost prince. We were speaking with the Abbess, and the leader of these people made his move to try to shut all of that down." Maybe he wouldn't strictly mention that one of the true Treasures was in fact with the Abbess right now - it felt like that wasn't quite his place to bring up until she did.
There were personal matters too, and... agh, probably they would be brought up sooner or later, but for now the confusion over the current situation reigned supreme.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"I hope Xanti made it through all of that alright. But I suspect he probably is, based on the ease of that Silence, earlier. Man, though... seeing him again in the middle of all of this. What a context. What a context..."
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "I am sure he is fine. But I think it is about time you sort things out with him, until then you haven't been very...clear on what happened between you two. And your failed attempt to explain our situation earlier makes it very clear that awkwardness isn't quite gone yet."
Vortai turned his head to the side as soon as he head that familiar voice.
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "Speak of the demon...devil? I suppose it is devil."
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "Yes, you could say we had been busy here. The order for them to commit suicide happened as soon as we took down the figure in charge of this attack. I am not completely sure what he was babbling about, to be honest. I am almost sure he is connected to the 'false' king who is currently hunting us down, but I really was not aware so many of these students were spies waiting for this."
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "...Either that or formed some sort of cult behind our backs during this entire time, only revealing their true colors now. So there is the possibility of this false king reaching them only recently to strike a deal. Otherwise I feel like this attack would have happened sooner."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): This is related to what's going on in the capital? Unbelievable... Their actions run counter to any logic I could think of. Xanti looked over at the debris in the room, and then at Zaku's body. But you did deal with him yourselves, in a quite impressive manner. The most pressing question first: what about the Abbess? I'm guessing you haven't returned to her yet. Constant muffled beeping were audible from Xanti's robes.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"He locked the Abbess into a vault she was in, essentially by going in and stealing a key she needs. We need to identify a key to get her out, but by the sounds of it, what the key actually is and how it works is something theoretically only she should have known in the first place."
(Also, Vortai was right. But, damn it... Fer was barely sure what to say to Xanti outside of explaining the situation. He wasn't even sure if Xanti blamed him for any of their family troubles or not, but he'd spent so long convincing himself that Xanti would that it was paralyzing. Still, it wasn't like he'd get the chance if he didn't work up the courage at some point while he was here.
Well, okay, there was one thing he could still find the voice to ask about immediately.)
(https://i.imgur.com/dAdj8Lo.png):"By the way, uh, what is that sound?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "Based on what we saw and heard, it seems to be the case, yes. I can only hope the other students in the other floors aren't related to them...assuming there are still others alive."
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "Yes, I am also curious. Isn't that beeping related to the device you used earlier to communicate with the Abbess? If it is, why is it beeping?"
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): The Abbess has been communicating with me in her usual manner, which leads me to believe she's doing fine. Did you find anything on Zaku?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"We found a couple of objects on his body. One is some form of rune, and the other is some sort of disc. Amberly was taking a look at them."
-
Xanti looked at the objects Amberly was holding.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): Couldn't be the rune, but the disc might, being magical and all that. Let's go to the Abbess' study.
While leaving to the study Xanti observed the former door as well and made some remarks.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): How did you do that to the door and to him with the runes he was using? Zaku was renowned for reinforcement and armor seals, it must have taken some serious power to break through all that.
In the study, Xanti waited to be pointed at the vault door and knocked on it.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): Abbess? Abbess, it's me, Xanti. You can stop using the beeper now.
I was bored! You all were taking #%!$& ages. I take it Vortai, Amberly and the others are with you, seeing that you know where to knock? And that Zaku has left the building?
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): They are, and he has. They've found some items on his person, but nothing that looks like a "key".
The key looks like a deceptively resilient disc. Did Zaku try to eat it?
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): I don't think so... There was indeed a disc, but we haven't tested it's resilience-
Good enough for me! Listen up, boy, you're about to learn. You see the brick marked with the Sun symbol above you? Count 5 bricks down and 3 to the left, and insert the disc in the gap between that brick and the one further left.
Though confused, Xanti did as asked and managed to find the gap among dozens of identical ones. Though it seemed solid enough, when the disc's edge was pressed into it it absorbed the disc. After some whirring noises, the vault's door opened and the Abbess rushed through, grabbing Xanti's cheeks.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): I could kiss you, if there weren't some heretic asses that I need to vaporize straight to hell! The Abbess rushed again through the study's door, but Carmen interjected.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): They're all dead already. Mass suicide.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): Dammit! I needed to release some bolts of judgment to calm my anger at having to reveal one of the biggest secrets to outsiders, but I still need to bring order back to this house. Wait for a moment.
Some time later, the group was at the Abbess' study again, with a basket of food on the desk, while the Abbess sat down again.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): Bloody &%#$, that took some doing. Where were we?
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): The ring this mysterious man gave you long ago.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): Right. I have it here, now you- She pointed a bony finger at Ethan. -need to see if it does anything. Because back there in the White Room it flashed intensely for a second while I was there, and I don't know what that means.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Do I eat it?" Ethan asked with a smirk, before putting the ring onto his finger.
-
As soon as Ethan put on the ring a surge of energy coursed inside him, causing a quite painful reaction.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): Aren't you glad you didn't eat it?
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Should I be worried?
But the pain soon subsided as Ethan became used to the ring's power, feeling ready to unleash it.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Yuurgh... so, what does it do?"
-
The Abbess gave her best impression of a shrug.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): How am I supposed to know? Not for lack of trying mind you! There's training grounds in the House, we can go and blast some dummies if you feel able.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Hrrm, fine I guess."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "Huh. Peculiar. But then again, we saw plenty of odd things at this point."
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "Speaking of peculiar...I do believe you have some catching up to do with your sibling, Fer."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/7XjVeQK.png)
"Well, this is something that smells like good news for once. We've had precious little of that, lately."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/EfkNlXM.png) "Hopefully more are to follow." Claude had elected to get some support from Lavinia after leaving the killing grounds.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/LQ9aKr7.png) "Indeed. Now we are one step closer to the truth behind all of this."
-
Fer let out a sigh at Vortai's prompting, and then nodded. Well, there truly was no dodging it now, was there? Fer pulled Xanti aside and...
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png) :"...so. Uh... hey, Xanti. How has it been going for you these... eight years, now? Have you found success here with the church?"
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): Move your ass in that case.
The Abbess hurried Ethan and the rest along the corridors until reaching an open garden with a lone old-looking dummy.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): Alright then, show us what your new ring can do, preferably without blowing the entire House up.
Meanwhile Xanti was herded away by his brother.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): Well, it has been quite fine, as you can see. The church has been a great help towards developing my knowledge and my strength all these years... Forgive me for not asking how you've been in return, but there's a more pressing question in my mind. How is our family in the capital faring after these recent events?
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "But what if the ring IS for blowing things up? You are prepared for that, no?"
-
The Abbess simply pointed at the old dummy in the middle of the garden and backed away.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Okay, then. Let me, uh, let me summon the powers of the ring..." Ethan formed a fist with his hand and pointed the ring at the dummy, shaking his hand a bit.
-
For a few seconds, the ring didn't do anything. Until seemingly Ethan's magic neuron perfectly bounced off a corner of his skull and caused a beam of energy to forcefully spew forward, incinerating the dummy, along with part of the ground, the surface of a wall, and an eagle that happened to soar in the wrong spot.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): It's quite similar to the use the usurper gave his ring... Though the control leaves much to be desired.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): I'll be damned, that dummy stood for 25 years against high caliber magic, fortified by Zaku's seals, and a pirate with the magic skills of a potato destroys it three days away from retirement! Ah well, at least now I know how you got through his defenses. The Abbess went to fetch another identical looking dummy and placed it in the former dummy's spot, applying some spells of her own, before returning to Ethan.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): Gotta say though, if you don't want friendly fire or burning down your own ship, you need to think differently. Got a weapon in hand?
-
The pirate simply pointed at the axes hanging at his belt.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "I got me axes, yarr. I'm not blowing these up, though!"
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): Grab your least favorite axe then, and try channeling the ring's power through it when swinging instead of directly at the target. I'll be able to repair it if it doesn't get completely atomized.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"...hmm."
The question was a little bit of a surprise, but the image that Fer had built in his head really was looking false.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"Eh, well, on the whole, I'd call it... mixed."
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):"Some splinter group of lunatics did come to the library seeking to burn the place down - me and the others were there, and held them off long enough for Peio and Ekaitz to evacuate, so I'm pretty sure they're safe. I can't say what happened to the library's structure in the end, though it was a hell of a fight," and that was a phrasing that Fer surely wouldn't have used in his meek teenage years, "and I'd like to hope we more or less turned them away."
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"Uh, but they were pretty prepared. They got all of the valuable books stored away safely - I actually helped them get that set up. So there's no horrific loss of knowledge resulting from it, either way."
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Actually, Amberly did too - that's my nun friend, so really there's been a lot of progress made there on their views about the church, really."
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Um, right - as a matter of fact, they actually told me to tell you that they are sorry, that they realize you aren't a fanatic, and that they would like to see you again someday."
-
Xanti's face reflected his inner rollercoaster as Fer expositioned what happened with the Jassos, eventually settling in a concerned expression.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): That's... quite a lot to process. I'm deeply saddened to hear about the library, about it being burned again by that kind of people... and I was worried that it would entrench the rest of our family in their ideological positions, or even that they would blame me for it.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): But by what you tell me, you were able to fight them off until they've managed to safeguard the most valuable, and break through their stubborn resistance? Amberly was supposed to come here for training, wasn't she? I'm impressed, for all the scholarly prowess of the Jasso family, it was her that made our most important breakthrough.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"I think that there's really a lot that can be attributed to Amberly's strength of will, that's for sure. It was really impressive to watch her stand up for herself upon initially meeting the both of them. Definitely a lot better than I could."
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"...as for the library, mm. We'll pick up, and we'll move on. I guess that a lot of my role in it depends on how this whole journey with this whole crew ends up turning out. I really never could have imagined that I of all people would have ended up so deeply involved in so many insanely important -and, unfortunately, seismically violent- events."

Ethan thought for a moment, pulled out the old, simple, iron axe, and did the magickry, trying to aim at dummy.
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): Has it been that bad, then? Hmm... perhaps it's time I left the House of Scholars, if only temporarily. What have you been up to until this?
Ethan wriggled the axe around trying to do the magicky thing, until he was able to properly hack at the target with enough of the ring's power activated to send a wave of energy that struck the dummy with significant force.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): Not too shabby. Make sure to get some practice now, but don't overdo it unless you want to blow yourself up in real combat.
Ethan gains ability Ring of Magic: activate to turn the currently equipped weapon into a Magic Weapon for 1 turn. 2 turn cooldown.

(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Looks like extra effort for the same outcome in battle. Could have its uses, though."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"We've been going around and rounding up the Royal Treasures of Alvada, more or less - or, at least, what we were able to think was the Treasures. I, ah... I actually ended up joining up with this whole group when they rescued me from pirates, who had... sort of captured me, since I'd been rooting around the Demon's Grin following rumors from the archaeological community that there was something pre-Reckoning there."
Fer paused for a moment, grew increasingly agitated by something, and then sighed.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"I've been spending the last eight years out looking mostly for the Armageddon Tome in particular, and I had really got myself actually quite an archaeologist career for a while but..."
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"Honestly, to tell the truth, half of the reason I chose to go so heavily into archaeology is that I needed to get away for a while after all of the fighting between you three."
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"Because I couldn't stand... it's that I..."
Fer really struggled with his words for a few moments before he managed to finally find them... mostly.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"It still kills me- This entire time- I really wish I'd been able to say anything, back then. Say anything to anyone, make any sort of difference, even if it was small. Instead of just... despite everything you taught me and did for me, standing there, and watching as, just, they kicked you out. I'm so sorry for that."
-
Xanti pondered his response.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): I see... He then placed his hand on Fer's shoulders. Do you think yourself a coward, for not speaking up then? For not making a difference? In that case I have to say, that you're being quite disrespectful to my little brother.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): You did make a difference back then, Fer. Were you not the only one of the family to not drive against me in blind anger, but rather try to figure out another way? I took notice of that. I wanted you to be open minded enough to consider other possibilities, and your silence proved to me that I had gone through to you, that you weren't going to fall to the same blind anger the rest of the family did. Maybe you weren't mature enough to think of a way to defend me, but I don't hold that against you at all, and you know why?
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): Because now that you've matured, you were able to find a way to make even more of a difference. After all this time, you haven't given up, and that patience has borne fruit. Isn't patience the most important virtue you need as a scholar and archaeologist? I couldn't be prouder of you.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): Brother, I think I can tell you now why it was that I joined the Cult of the Old Gods, and why I had to break away from the rest of the Jasso family. Xanti took a deep breath.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): Ever since eight years ago, I've had a theory that the Old Gods existed, physically on this earth, and they communed with humanity's ancestors.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): Talk about looking a gift horse in the mouth... You're welcome to practice that here all you want, seeing that you saved the House of Scholars and all, but it'll all go to shit if you don't get the other Treasures in time, ain't it? I'll be in my office if you want anything-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Actually, there is something I've been meaning to ask for some time, Abbess. Carmen interrupted the Abbess' flight. Does the House get much contact with other scholarly institutions?
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): Damn straight we do, girlie! Who do you think we- The Abbess was again interrupted.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Specifically, Domirian institutions. Like ones in Demura.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9frq96kkhy7tvea/abbess.png?raw=1): I don't know what you're getting at, but let's see... Melchior the Scribe is a good source of basic tomes, and some scholars here come from there, but we haven't had any contact with them after... Zaku's meeting with the museum's curator- The Abbess was once again interrupted by Carmen's outburst.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): I knew it! I knew there had to be some connection. Ever since landing here I've had a theory that the fake Narius is a Domirian agent, and that this is a plot by Domiria.
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/NFQxLytK/amberly-default.png): "A Domirian plot? Do you think it could it be in revenge for the battle in Demura? Though, that only happened a short time ago. Surely a plot of this magnitude would have been in the works for years."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): That's what I mean, this has been Domiria's end goal for a long time. They poisoned Alvada's Crown Princess almost 40 years ago, the White Doe sinks in a freak storm with almost all the royal family aboard... and now the throne is usurped after King Titus' untimely death. Regardless of who ends up in the throne, the chaos in Alvada will benefit them. This is not revenge for our actions in Demura, they planned to force us into that fight to justify their future retaliation. They used the Royal Treasures and their history against Alvada. Wasn't the ship where Ethan obtained the Orb from Demura as well?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/MuXF2Ch.png) "A plot of this magnitude... It's simply unbelievable, and yet it all makes so much sense. How long has Domira waited in the shadows for their chance to strike, like the most patient assassin...?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "I never liked Domirians in particular." Ethan thought for a moment.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Maybe I will remain a King just so I can sink their ships in revenge. Maybe."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/7XjVeQK.png)
"A poor motivation for a reign, but I can't say I disagree with the sentiment. I felt regret for our actions in Demura, but if that was all orchestrated by Domira. . . well, that price was small compared to what I intend to extract from them if given half the chance."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Seems like their big plans ended up getting a lot of their own knights killed fighting us back then," Lavinia said, crossing her arms.
She didn't think too hard about fighting most of the time. But back then, Claude had said something about those guards just doing their jobs. Even she could think there was something pretty rotten about it turning out that all of them were used in some grand plot.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/EfkNlXM.png) "That is disgusting."
Indignant was a polite way to put just how Claude felt about having that sort of bloody incident provoked for someone's interest. He could understand it on an intellectual level, but he was frustrated by it still.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "I can see they really don't have morals or limits."
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "It is truly baffling someone would go that far...then again, at this point it is all too obvious they don't care about the costs considering it isn't their own lives on the line."
-
There was a long moment of silence from Fer as he took in his older brother's words.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"Hearing this all from you, it's... it's a little hard to accept."
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Ah, but I guess I'll have to, huh? Ha ha..."
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"I'd built up this image in my head of how things could go in the very worst case, but you've turned out to be just..."
(https://i.imgur.com/wDAHPrC.png):"Tremendously understanding. Maybe... maybe we're finally going to get all of the pieces put back together with our family, after all this time. That would be wonderful."
Of course, the rest of what Xanti had said certainly merited a response too!
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"As for your theory... well, I could certainly imagine it making some sense, for such a very specific religion with such a clear and rich corpus of text and archaeological artifacts to have some grounding in direct historicity."
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Should we bring Amberly and Vortai in here too to discuss this?"
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): Well, would you expect a Jasso that was anything less than "tremendously understanding" to join the Cult? Even then, I would like to be able to bring some evidence to them, so they can be convinced for good.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): Yes, let's see if they have something to add. I already knew Vortai previously, but I haven't confided this to him, he seems to be on an entirely different quest.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Alright - I'll go get them, and we'll discuss your theory in more detail, then."
And with that, Fer walked out towards the others, immediately addressing Vortai and Amberly (and not quite picking up on the mood in the room).
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"Vortai? Amberly? I was speaking to Xanti, he started to share with me a very important theory of his about the Old Gods that I think the two of you probably ought to hear about if he's sharing it with me."
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/NFQxLytK/amberly-default.png): "Oh yes, of course. The Captain is just testing an ancient ring that the Abbess gave him; it lets him shoot magic bolts when he swings his axe, it seems."
(https://i.postimg.cc/tRkgk5D0/amberly-surprise.png): "But um, that's not important right now. What is important is that we're pretty sure that those fanatics were Domirian and that they've been involved in some sort of conspiracy against the Alvadan crown for a number of years now. In fact, Carmen has raised the possibility that they may have forced the battle at the museum as part of their plot. I don't quite know if I believe that part but if it's true it means that we just caught up in their schemes and we probably never had a chance of getting out of there quietly or peacefully, which of course would be something of a weight lifted from our souls." The nun inhaled, out of breath from her rush to get the important information out of the way.
(https://i.postimg.cc/NFQxLytK/amberly-default.png): "Sorry for rambling on. How is your brother doing? He wasn't hurt, was he?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "Ah, Fer. I do hope you managed to get along with your brother."
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "And what is this information you wish to share with us? If Xanti was studying something in specific, he didn't tell me about it before."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"The museum at Demura...?"
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):"You think that entire terrible affair was a Domirian plot?"
Fer lapsed into pensive silence, mulling the idea over for several moments.
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):"...I can't speak for the outside combat, and considering that you were already fighting by the time Marlow and I got out of the museum, that seems pretty viable."
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"It was a mess inside, though. I can't rule a setup out strictly, but if they were part of it, they were not a well-coordinated part of it. The series of events in there were... a disaster for and sort of from everyone involved until Carmen came in."
Fer sighed.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"I... suppose it's yet another thing to think about. I can't really call it a relief, though, on my end, unfortunately - especially, of course, because it means the Domirians had every intention of getting everyone in there killed."
He cleared his throat and changed subject.
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Anyway - things actually went... very, very well with Xanti, and he's fine in the aftermath of the battle. It turns out, I suppose, that I'd mostly been scaring myself. With his theory, though, it's something that is I suspect extremely theologically important, and quite likely historically important as well. It's best he explain it, though, especially because he has been keeping it under very tight wraps."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "I am pleased to hear that."
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "Well, with you describing it in such manner, you certainly do have me very curious about this theory of his. It does sound extremely promising."
-
Amberly nodded solemnly.
(https://i.postimg.cc/NFQxLytK/amberly-default.png): "It's more Carmen's idea than my own - I'm not sure what to think just yet - but it makes a certain amount of sense. We may never know the truth of the matter though.
"Anyway, Vortai has the right idea. If your brother has a theory, we should certainly hear it."
-
Fer couldn't help but, of course, make a comment in response to Amberly's last thought on the matter of Demura.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"I suppose it's possible there's a lot we never get to know about. We're all actually very important people at this point... at this point we're diving headfirst into the chaos around the leadership of entire nations, and I guess we have been for a while. It means there's going to be a lot of messy secrets, I think. Thankfully, at least this next bit here is hearing a theory and getting an explanation instead of all that.
Fer gestured for Amberly and Vortai to follow him, perhaps a little redundantly, and then moved off in the direction of Xanti.
-
Xanti saw the return of Fer with Vortai and Amberly.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): Ah, Vortai, good to see you again, and I believe this is the first time we've met properly, Amberly, right?
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): I assume Fer told you why the meeting, but you seem concerned by something else at the moment.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "Good to see you too, Xanti."
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "Your assumption isn't wrong either, considering we received some disturbing news. It seems this hole we found ourselves in is a lot deeper than expected."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/EfkNlXM.png) "That is disgusting."
Indignant was a polite way to put just how Claude felt about having that sort of bloody incident provoked for someone's interest. He could understand it on an intellectual level, but he was frustrated by it still.
(https://i.imgur.com/7XjVeQK.png)
"Agreed. Hopefully, in the resolution to all this, we can bring those responsible to justice for their crimes." This was a part of politics she didn't think she could ever really understand. The idea of expending one's own charges like firewood for the hearth. . . well, she supposed that not everyone thought of the nobility in the same way as her. If this was what was meant to be "proper" nobility, however, she planned to go on being as improper as possible.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Still - being from the secular tradition I'm from, I'll admit I'm no expert in judging this, but I would expect that your theory, in a religious context, is important enough that it bears explanation anyhow, yes? It would be quite some time until they would get an opportunity to hear it again."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): Indeed. Xanti turned to the other two and started explaining. Going straight to the point, I believe the Old Gods, the religious figures Alvada has been based on since before the Reckoning, were actual physical figures that coexisted with people.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): I may not have evidence at the moment, but I have conjectures. The first one occurred to me when I was still in the Jasso library, and I wondered how far back the Jasso records went. I found out some recollections from pre-Reckoning eras, and something stood out to me.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): There is no mention to other civilizations apart from the Alvadan Kingdom, not even in passing. Surely there would have been other groups of people, other nations or tribes back when there was even more land available, right? But the records indicate only Alvada seemingly prospered after, and I quote, "gifts from the Old Gods". Xanti's voice sped up in a tone very reminiscent of Fer's own ramblings.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): What would these gifts be, I have no idea. Knowledge? Or physical objects such as the Royal Treasures? Whatever it was, Alvada had abilities beyond what we know now, such as the attempt of raising more land that caused the Reckoning. There is a major discordance between pre and post Reckoning human knowledge, as if we were being forcefully progressing forwards, or being granted knowledge and technology without developing it ourselves.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): And all of that stops right after the Reckoning. The world is plunged into war and ignorance, and we take many years to claw out of it, unable to advance as quickly as before. Before I continue, what do you know about the Reckoning itself?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "Excuse me? That's a very concerning theory, to say the least."
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "And leads to MANY new questions too, if we truly received some direct assistance from powerful entities in the past."
(https://i.imgur.com/ViTPP7s.png) "It has been a while since we talked about the Reckoning itself...and I haven't touched a book related to it since I began to travel, so my memory is a bit foggy. I just do remember the 'key' parts about the story, as we had been mostly focusing on that part in specific."
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "...Exactly to prevent another Reckoning from happening. Turns out the Royal Treasures we got our hands on were, well, fake. So we are planning to look for the 'real' ones this time around."
-
Amberly listened intently, not wanting to interrupt with questions until invited.
(https://i.postimg.cc/NFQxLytK/amberly-default.png): "I'm afraid that I don't know a great deal more about the Reckoning than is in any of the history texts. Probably the most important fact is that the Reckoning occurred the last time the artifacts were not gathered successfully."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): I find that quite plausible if, after all, the Royal Treasures are indeed direct physical gifts from the Old Gods themselves. But that's just one more piece in this intricate mesh of conjectures. I don't know if you're familiar with the historical tale that the last King of the pre-Reckoning Alvadan Kingdom said that the Reckoning was due to "humanity wanting to step on the Gods' domains".
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): I believe everyone has taken that phrase for the meaning that trying to obtain more land for Alvada was akin to playing god, and that is why they were punished. But perhaps it could be taken more literally... As in, humanity literally tried to invade the Gods' land.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): With that change in perspective, and taken into account other things like Alvada's origins being in coastal cities, as well as most ancient ruins being located near the sea... There is one particular line of thought to follow.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): The Old Gods lived in the seas, and made contact with humanity at the edges of the continent, granting Alvadan civilization boons that allowed them to prosper above anyone else, physical boons such as the Royal Treasures. And then... Alvada's attempt to raise land was taken as a declaration of war by the Old Gods, which proceeded to defeat and punish humanity with overwhelming power, if the only thing that could have faced them was the Royal Treasures in conjunction.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): This would also explain why Armageddon wasn't ever found again, Fer. If I'm right, it was what the Old Gods used to cause the Reckoning, and is therefore probably laying under the sea.
-
With nothing better to do and not exactly repelled by intellectual discourse just because he'd spent quite a bit of time doing pirating, Claude had approached the nerdy huddle a bit late to check whether it was a secret talk. He took the fact he wasn't reproached as a sign it was fine to listen in and did so.
(https://i.imgur.com/EfkNlXM.png) "Have you been looking for magic that could cause a continental upheaval?"
-
There was a long silence from Fer as he took in the import of what his brother was saying - to say the least, he had dramatically underestimated the scope of Xanti's theory, and now that his further explanation had made rather clear what Xanti meant, Fer had to take a few moments to be stunned at the implications.
(https://i.imgur.com/dAdj8Lo.png):"Hold on... oh. Oh. You don't mean to say that the Old Gods were human at all, you mean something entirely different."
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"That is... deeply concerning."
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"The connection with the sea could certainly make some sense considering the theological importance of the sea, as we see with Undine - but this... has several possible consequences for our future, as if we weren't in deep enough."
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"To understand more, I suppose I would need to know: what was the basis for the theory that swung you towards it? What does the evidence for this look like? I would want to take a look at it myself, if it were possible."
(https://i.imgur.com/dAdj8Lo.png):"And, er, one more thing..." Here Fer looked at Claude as well, briefly, shrugging his shoulders. "Are you certain about Armageddon? The state of the surviving structures of the pre-Reckoning era, as well of course as the landmass changes, strongly suggest to me a primarily seismic event. My own research of previous Jasso family library organization documentation has suggested that Armageddon is a related to Meteor, likely its precursor. I suppose that Meteor does have some rather unique ability to summon rock, but this would imply Armageddon to not quite as much be a fire spell as its successors, and would imply to me a drastically different sigil structure. And, if the old Jasso family was able to hold onto world-level spells like that, as opposed to something more city or sub-city level in its destruction like I've been expecting... well, that has implications on its own."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): To be honest, I have no clue what the Old Gods could have really been. Human or not, if they were here before us, created us, or arrived here from somewhere else. All I have collected so far are small facts, pointing towards an unnatural progression of Alvadan civilization tied to these strange artifacts. Artifacts that somehow seem to know who is using them, such as the Royal Treasures, that are supposed to only be usable by members of the Alvadan Royal Family. Have any of you tried to draw power from them, or was it only your captain that is able to do so?
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): There's a lot of tales of objects that only certain people are able to use, such as the famed Trident of Undine, and perhaps even artifacts that only Alvadans were able to use, giving them an advantage over other civilizations. And I suspect this ability is carried through blood, such as that every descendant of the first user of the Treasures is able to use it, as the Old Gods may have been able to alter humanity's blood in such a way that the artifacts would always know their chosen.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): But in any case, Armageddon is the key to this. The Jasso libraries tell of Armageddon not as a spell able to destroy an entire continent, but I think the Old Gods were able to draw more power, or draw it in a different way, maybe even because of this blood factor. As you said, Meteor can seemingly summon rock, and I've devised a theory where, inverting this effect, rock could be summoned away.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): And old maps from pre-Reckoning times describe the continent as a continuous mass of land, meaning that if Armageddon was a more powerful Meteor, inverting its effect and amplifying with the power the Old Gods were capable of harness... you could "summon away" enough land to create the three inner seas.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): That theory has some missing links that I've been unable to fill in. If only I could go to the Tower of Xos I could further develop it, but I haven't found a chance yet...
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"That's... deeply disconcerting. The ability to augment and alter magic in that way, to that extent... well, I suppose either way we are talking about the Reckoning, so profound power is a given but..."
Fer trailed off, and then shrugged widely, before changing the subject slightly.
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Incidentally, we are actually going to be traveling to Xos in the near future in order to pick up another one of the Treasures, so I suppose our interests will be directly intersecting here. Maybe we can make an examination of things at the Tower and take a step towards acquiring more evidence for your theory. What sorts of things are you looking for there?"
-
Xanti's expression of surprise took over.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): You will?
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/64vs6aa3l82id5u/xanti.png?raw=1): That's very convenient. Let's see, let me head to my study and bring the notes I have on the glyphs and what could be missing... Ideally you'd want to fill in the blanks, or see if anyone has figured out an alternative that ends up giving similar results. But the preferable thing would be discussing it with someone more knowledgeable than us and hear another point of view.
Xanti hurriedly left before anyone could protest it.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "...I will be honest."
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "I don't think the Old Gods are humans, as that would be absurd. However, the idea of them actually sharing the same world with us and with an actual physical form disturbs me."
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "...Do you think they just had been watching us from afar this entire time?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/EfkNlXM.png) "I have to agree with Vortai; physical deities sound like trouble. In case your theory's correct their civilization should still exist, right?"

~~Chapter 9: Echoes From The Past~~

After leaving the House with one Treasure and two theories, the group traveled back to where they'd left the Blackbones and set sail towards open sea without a clear destination in mind.
Though the task the scholars received from Xanti, as well as the orb would lead them to Xos, on the way they'd have to take a detour into the unknown.
It was over a week later than they reached the approximate location that the orb indicated on the map, as suggested by the thick fog that surrounded them in short notice.
The fog had rolled in just a few hours ago, unnaturally fast, but no sign of any danger... yet.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): How far do you think we'll be able to spot a ship or land before either they attack us or we collide? Have any of you even seen fog like this before?
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/tRkgk5D0/amberly-surprise.png): "Di's a coastal city. We certainly had plenty of fog depending on the season, but nothing like this."
Amberly attempted to shine magical light against the fog, but it almost seemed like the glow simply reflected back and made vision even worse, so she stopped.

Weeks before, Blake would have considered such an event to be a strange and improbable fantasy. But the strange and improbable seemed to follow Gawen and her companions everywhere they went. He wondered how long it took to acclimate to such unending unusuality.
-
All of a sudden everyone in the Blackbones could feel a chill, as the fog started to clear slightly around them.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Something's coming. Get ready. Carmen rested her hand on her sword as she scanned the sea for any sign of what's to come.

From thin air, the crew watched as a massive rotten ship materialized, manned by skeletons brandishing weapons. The winds around them howled, and the biggest of them, standing at the prow of the ship, raised his axe with a warcry.
Soon after, the skeleton crew lowered planks and prepared to board the Blackbones! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2eSUfYLBpQI)

Next to Carmen, Fer mused in response to her own wonderings.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"Well, I was talking about the "last century" and "a hundred years ago" a little while ago, but that would actually be strange, wouldn't it?"
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"Given that we're on water, and that we can probably presume a skeleton crew hah and evidently intangible wraiths can't perform maintenance, really, decay of both bone and wood would naturally occur much faster than that - everything would be thoroughly falling apart in a decade. Clearly, magic is involved."
Fer paused for a moment.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"Or, well, ah - we're fighting a bunch of undead so obviously magic is involved, but I mean magic is probably involved beyond JUST some random spell making some the dead rise up."
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"What I mean is that this probably doesn't just happen naturally."
Another pause, and Fer pinched the bridge of his nose.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"And what I mean by THAT is that I think I see there being three possibilities, although we do admittedly get a little out of my expertise here. One, this is a very old ship and crew, and they're operating off of a very complex set of magic work, in which case it's probably not a coincidence that we've run into them. Two, this is in fact not that old a ship at all, and this is just a bunch of random pirates who were turned into undead by some sort of wider defensive curse around this area, in which case... well, we'd better be very careful. Three, the ship and crew are not that old but this isn't actually a wider curse at play, whether it be some random mage's work at play predating the waters, or some attack targeted by actual contemporaries. I kind of think option three is unlikely."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): My feeling is not about what I can see, but rather what I can't. It seems to me like there is something missing, and the big ship crewed by ghosts is sticking out too much.

Watching the rest of the crew pour onto the rotting old ship, Fer lowered the "summon giant destructive rocks from the sky" tome for a moment, peering out at the ghostly foes, and in particular the archer that he had hit with his previous spell.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"Ehhhh... I guess there's not enough reason to waste the sigils on this thing..."
He pulled out a frankly-at-this-point-rather-ratty Fire tome out with the other hand.
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"And this WOULD do the job... ehhhnnhhheehhhhh..."
Weighing the two tomes and the decision for a moment, he eventually put the Meteor tome away and rushed forward. Almost tripping over his robes for a moment, he nonetheless elected to blow out the last of his tome's sigils on his foe.
(https://i.imgur.com/dAdj8Lo.png):"Rrrright, then, uh, let's hope this clears up some space...!"

Across the planks and past Gawen and Fer's handiwork almost before the latter's fire had even faded - with her full momentum, Lavinia thrust her lance through an undead mage's robes and yanked up to scatter the bones.
J-12, Iron Lance Stormcaller D.

Amberly did a double-take at Fer's appearance.
(https://i.postimg.cc/tRkgk5D0/amberly-surprise.png): "Gods, Fer, are you alright? You look like you've had a rough time."
-
Ashlyn stays still to handaxe pirate H.
-
Fer just sort of watched wanly as an arrow ejected itself from his body and dropped onto the deck at the touch of a Mend spell, followed by another.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"Honestly, it was probably the natural consequence of deciding to just sprint into the heat of combat like that."
(https://i.imgur.com/dAdj8Lo.png):"I am actually getting rather used to it, by now, really! That's something the run of the mill archaeologist probably doesn't ever do. Ha ha."
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/NFQxLytK/amberly-default.png): "I suppose you're right about that. My understanding is that twenty percent of archaeology is digging, and eighty percent is researching where to dig. Not dueling with undead pirates or dropping meteors on things."
(https://i.postimg.cc/SNSQB0bG/amberly-ce.png): "Even so, I wish you wouldn't be so...blasé about getting hurt. Healing magic can't fix everything, and if something were to happen..."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"To tell you the truth, I didn't see the archer on the upper deck until I was already there; I had intended to be behind our front line fighters by the time our foes got to pushing back, and I was, but it didn't quite work out. Still, I suppose I did act very recklessly."
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"I guess it's just very easy to get caught up in... something about all of this and just go along with the flow. Princes and usurpers and the royal treasures of Alvada, twice, it really is all quite surreal, isn't it? Frankly, the meteors are the more familiar ground, in comparison."
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/NFQxLytK/amberly-default.png): "Forgive me Fer, it wasn't my intent to pester you. I've seen firsthand how capable you are! And you are correct of course, we do seem to find ourselves in bizarre situations a lot lately. A year ago I never could have imagined a battle like this, and now? It seems almost...normal."
Amberly gestured to the smouldering hole in the latticework where a skeleton had stood just moments ago.
(https://i.postimg.cc/d0JW0Zpy/amberly-smile.png): "Perhaps a certain amount of recklessness is inherent when hunting for lost treasures in uncharted waters in order to avert global catastrophe. They do say that fortune favors the bold, after all!"

Blake moves to [C, 14] and attacks Ghost Archer K.

(https://i.imgur.com/5ObXPAc.png) "Next!" Hands now free, he unsheathed his blade once more and charged after the captain, going for a diagonal slash while preparing to parry and counter afterwards. Just one good exchange and he had this.

And then, the great exchange between Claude and the skeletal Captain happened. His first attack lands solidly in its ribcage, but the blade gets stuck, making him too slow to parry the Captain's axe. However, after unsticking it he puts his best spin into his retaliation, obliterating the ribcage and spine, and sending the Captain's skull far overboard. The Captain's ghost appears and quickly fades, as a lantern on the ghost ship's prow ignites itself, emitting an eerie light.

Coughing a little and then clearing his throat (being heavily wounded really was kind of concerning as a default state, maybe Amberly was right that he shouldn't get used to it, but, uh, oh well), Fer looked around and noticed the archer skeleton standing there on a set of horribly broken bones in front of Gawen's broken sword, undulating in a way that was probably just the result of it getting up and being animated to stay active despite being a half-broken fleshless skeleton, but honestly looked rather taunting to him.

Fer strode up on deck, and watched as even through ailment spells (which just looked like a fairly basic spell to him, incidentally; not that hard to recognize once you'd trained with ailment staves) the others proceeded to start laying fucking waste to the undead. He also afforded a smug look to the sleeping archer.
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"That looks like Befuddle to me, I think," he called out to his two currently confused companions, "it isn't very comfortable, obviously, but it isn't going to have any more serious effects other than mixing you up a bit and it'll wear off after a little while."
And then he went to hit one of the responsible undead mages with a spell of his own.

Ethan stepped up for an epic duel between pirate captains. The living one raised his special axe, clashing with the dead one's throwing axe, seeing who would overpower who... Then Ethan managed to hook away the tomahawk and deliver a skullsplitting blow that ripped through the skeleton's armor and bones.

Like the other one, this ghost appears for a brief moment before a lantern on the mirror ship begins shining. The light of the two ghost ships' lanterns detaches itself and begin closing on each other, coalescing on top of the Blackbones' deck. A great flash of light blinded the group, after which they saw a monster rise from the deck, a mass of bones and tissue in the vague form of a humanoid body, with a Tomahawk on each hand... and two heads, each of them sporting the Crown of Flight.

It stepped towards Claude and threw both axes at such speed the swordsman couldn't react in time, and the impact was so strong it launched him backwards, crashing into the mage he was trying to protect.

(http://i.imgur.com/iqXiz4P.png) "Claude!" In the heat of battle, Lavinia had no space for worries or concerns, but seeing Claude flung across the planks by the two-axed abomination still shocked her.
Enough that even though she was moving before she knew it, she was still slower than Ethan leaping into action and Amberly's purging light. What her body intended to be a full-on charge became only an interposition, planting herself on the planks between Claude and the monster.
If it wanted Claude again, let it try to make it through both the captain and her.
U-12.
-
Fer had about half-a-second to feel guilty about asking Claude to take the hit for him and getting Claude fucking annihilated - and then Claude slammed into him with enough force to knock the wind out of his lungs.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"Hm, damn, yeah, of course that'd happen sorry Claude. I'm gonna take a crack at it again."
That roar seemed a little more than mundane to Fer, but at his distance Fer could feel only but the tinges of whatever effect the thing had up. That worked well enough.
Taking a few steps down the deck, Fer launched a meteor down at the demon.
X13 (I see that fucking archer), Meteor Bicephalon.
-
Fer incantated the spell, and the fog above opened to a bright sphere coming down fast. Fer brought the massive ball of fire with all his magical might on top of the monster's heads, causing a great explosion that blinded Ethan and Lavinia for a moment, as a mushroom cloud rose above them.

Hit: 130 + 10 + 5 + 10 - 74 = 81. Roll: 20. Hit!
Crit: 15 + 20 + 5 - 20 = 20. Roll: 1. Critical! //bruh

//dingdingding
The remains of the skeletal monster in front of Ethan dissipated, and the two circlets that stood on what were its skulls came together. After a small flash of light, Ethan caught in his hands the Crown of Flight.
On the deck of the ghost ships, the rest could feel their foothold become unstable.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Everyone, to the Blackbones! Carmen rushed with the rest to the only real ship, with Blake rushing to grab what he could, before the ghost ships faded along with the fog.
Party gains 7000 gold!
-
Gawen waited to ensure Claude was properly shuffled back onto the real ship before hurrying her steed along, who was visibly displeased at the state of his footing.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)
"Is it wrong of me to admit to being somewhat disappointed? I expected that battle to be more. . . climactic."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "I agree. We did not even get to see 'Fermageddon'.
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/NFQxLytK/amberly-default.png): "That's probably a good thing, considering that our only transport is a wooden ship. Armageddon may well have set the whole thing ablaze."
Then again, a divine ray of light and a meteor from the heavens hadn't set any fires, so perhaps Amberly just didn't know all that much about boats.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)
"Vortai, your desire to see others come to harm is concerning at times."
-
Sure the first ax strike was bad, but the second was really the kicker. Claude lost his consciousness for a few seconds as he experienced Armageclaude and smashed into Fer so hard he'd probably left a swordsman-shaped bruise on the mage.
(https://i.imgur.com/5ObXPAc.png) "Lavinia?" At least it was nice to see her in front of him first thing after waking back up.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "I wouldn't call it a 'desire', I am merely curious. Fer described that spell in a very intriguing manner.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)
"Vortai he was describing his potential death."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "We beat it," Lavinia said, still holding the back of her hand against her eyes and squinting. "But not before your armor came to good use. Need a hand?"
Besides, Claude could probably use a little help before he had to deal with the bookkeeping for what Fermeteor "Fer" Jasso had done to the starboard side of the Blackbones, even without any actual fires.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/5ObXPAc.png) "I feel like I could use two hands, or maybe even a winch?" Claude groaned.
-
Fer chimed into the ongoing discussion around Vortai.
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Eh, well, hey, healing magic is very potent! I was only maybe describing my own death, I could have simply been describing my horrific but temporary maiming, you know, as one does." His tone here was... rather blasé, but then he did wince. "I am sorry that it didn't go much better for you, Claude."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/5ObXPAc.png) "I'm just glad you didn't get knocked out when the me-shaped projectile hit you."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "Potential death? Preposterous. We have some skilled healers at our side, at most he would be injured."
Vortai turned his attention to Fer as soon as he spoke up.
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "See? He wasn't explicitly describing his own death. Besides the curiosity of a scholar can have many different angles, I am sure he does understand it."
-
Gawen just shakes her head and slides off her horse to conduct a post-battle inspection for wounds.
-
Ethan puts on the crown.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "So, how's this thing supposed to work again?"
-
Ethan felt a familiar surge of power when he put on the circlet. Fortunately, it's mechanism seemed simpler, as he merely had to focus on not falling to begin levitating off the deck.
Ethan gains ability Crown of Flight: activate to gain Flying for 1 turn without being vulnerable to Bows/Wind. 2 turn cooldown.
-
Ethan takes the crown off.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Eugh, I hate this. Imagine not having solid floor under your feet!"
He scrunches his nose and then looks around.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Well, the other two ships are gone... we might as well continue our journey."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)
"It's truly unfortunate that the relics will only respond to royalty."
-
Ethan thinks briefly.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "...why not, won't hurt trying."
And he puts the crown on Gawen.
-
Gawen blinks in bemusement, but attempts to float after a moment.
-
While only for a brief moment, Gawen does begin to levitate. But when trying to float a small distance away from Ethan, she instantly falls on her armored ass.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Fascinating." He steps closer to Gawen, helps her up and takes the crown back.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "I wonder if its my blood doing that or what..."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)
"I do not know if it is powered by your blood or if it simply recognizes the rightful ruler. If it is the former, be sure to hold onto it tightly should you be impaled or exsanguinated."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "...I was more thinking around the lines of cutting my palm and smearing the blood onto someone. Or the crown. Maybe it could self-activate through bloodstain, you know?"
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)
"I have my doubts, but I suppose there's little harm in trying."
-
(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/354281569445347330/354281654384328724/Basedtroub-2.png)
"Well, if you're willing, we could test it out perhaps. If it only requires the blood, then someone with a bit of your blood and the crown should be able to use it. And if any injuries occur in the process, I can probably handle it" Angelica decides to ask, perhaps with a hint of wanting to fly herself.
-
Ethan nods to Angelica.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Lysander can cut my palm with a knife, then. No need for me to bleed out just for science." He pauses, then turns to Gawen.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Do you want some separate droplets onto your armor, Gawen, just in case?"
-
Lysander considered refusing before sighing and pulling out his knife.
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"I'm not going to cut your palm. Do you know how painful that is? No, if you just need a few drops then pricking your thumb should do the trick. Here."
He held the dagger out for Ethan to prick his thumb, grumbling slightly at the ridiculousness of it all.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "In comparison to all the cuts and bruises and wounds I've gotten in past few months, I would wager a knife cut is on the lower scale of things, but, sure."
Poke.
Ouch.
And then Ethan unceremoniously smudges his blood on the crown.
-
(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/354281569445347330/354281654384328724/Basedtroub-2.png)
"Well I suppose that's good enough. Now to see whether it will work like that if separated from you. May I?" Angelica asks, attempting to be the first to test the theoretical effectiveness of this flight inducing bloodcrown.
-
Ethan crowns Angelica with a smirk.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "I crown thee Angelica the First, Queen of the Sky."
-
(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/354281569445347330/354281654384328724/Basedtroub-2.png)
"Wouldn't that be something? Though I suppose that would depend on how easy to use this thing is," Angelica remarks, moving about as far away from Ethan as Gawen did when she started to fall.
(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/354281569445347330/354281658209533953/Basedtroub-4.png)
"About this far I suppose? Well, time to see how this crown works," Angelica announces while she attempts to will herself to fly...or at least maybe float.
-
Angelica began to levitate, but the same fate as Gawen befell her on her behind. Carmen approached the science team.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): You seem to be having fun, but if all it required was blood, don't you think that fake Narius' plan would've been a lot simpler?
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Seems it does require my presence to function. And here I was thinking it would be a great tool. Alas."
-
(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"Perhaps in theory, but you never know. They may have never even considered the possibility, or like you thought that such a method would be to simple to actually work. Though in this case we know for sure that it doesn't work, but even that could work out in our favor," Angelica notes, before moving closer to Ethan.
(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"Now that being said, lets see how well it works if we only stay nearby you without moving," Angelica mutters, seeing whether proximity can improve the flight ability of the crown to other people.
-
Angelica began to levitate again, but fell when Ethan lost his concentration.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Why don't you just carry him with you? Carmen pointed out the obvious solution.
-
(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/354281569445347330/354281647727837184/Basedtroub.png)
"That could work. But its good to know what can and can't be done with the crown don't you think?" Angelica states as she gets up and attempts to pick up Ethan for the third flight adventure.
-
Angelica tried to lift the big lug by herself, struggling as Carmen looked on in a mixture of amusement and disappointment. Once she decided to load him onto her horse as she'd done before with more wounded crewmates, it started to get nervous as the three of them began floating into the air.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Interesting. Improvised pegasus.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/5ObXPAc.png) "That does not seem like the effect of your average magical item. I assume Fer will want to take a look."
-
Claude seemed to have recovered well enough by now.
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "This view's not good enough for him?" Lavinia said, leaning on her lance as she watched the spectacle.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/5ObXPAc.png) "Maybe he'll want to experience it himself. So how are you feeling? Aside from better than me."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "Fighting's the same thrill for me as always. They didn't even manage to knock me down once."
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Wouldn't have knocked you down either if it wasn't for you having to cover him." Lavinia indicated Fer with a tilt of her head, matter-of-fact, not disapproving.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)
"Intriguing as the Crown is, it may be best studied underway. We still have a false king to overthrow."

~~Chapter 10: The Tower~~
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/vfbzqfn7jiqu29g/ch10a.png?raw=1)
With two Treasures in their possession, it was time for the trip to the mysterious Tower of Xos. Mysterious except for the crew member that was born and raised there.
Though Xos seemed peaceful, one couldn't help but wonder what sort of trouble would be waiting for them before and after obtaining the final Treasure.
After another week of travel, the Blackbones' supplies were running low. However, over the horizon the lookout could begin to see the top of the great tower, the unmistakeable landmark that signaled their destination.
The port of Xos was quite a ways away from the Tower for safety, yet bustled with activity. The signature Black Ships stood out from the merchant vessels, but they made no attempt to intercept the Blackbones. After reaching the pier, the group touched solid ground after almost three weeks of sailing.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): For some reason I didn't expect this place to be so... normal.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "All the more reason to be cautious."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)
"I'm simply glad to stand on something that doesn't heave to and fro for a while."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "The port was always, well, normal. It's the Tower where all the weird things happen." Ethan scratched his nose.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Don't ask me for details, it's just the stories I've heard from others."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/DycqNoA.png) "We need more oranges." Claude added to the conversation after he emerged from belowdecks with a ledger in hand.
-
Xos - despite the circumstances around the trip here, Fer couldn't help but be excited, with a smile on his face.
(https://i.imgur.com/wDAHPrC.png):"Xos! Ah, you know, it's probably not all that surprising, considering how far away from home this city is, but I've never been here. I've always wanted to, though! There's so much that could be learned here - there is some philosophical misalignment when it comes to how we run our research and Xos runs theirs, but really we've just never much collaborated because of the distance. You know, I suppose it's an obvious fact, but it warrants saying - I consider Xos to be one of the four main capitals of magic in the world-"
All of a sudden, Fer stopped talking as his mind started running down an extremely specific train of thought. He considered the other three main capitals of magic, as he saw it, during their visits:
Demura - they had personally run a horrific and bloody smash and grab on a leading museum, scarring the crew (and him especially) for a long time afterwards, and no doubt damaging the magical establishment there terribly.
Duo Alvada - the entire city had undergone a massive and horrific wave of violence centered around their crew specifically, involving a siege of the Jasso Library, internecine violence, false artifacts, and generally just the wrecking of the entire academic infrastructure there in the tide of strife.
House of Scholars - the compound had been engulfed in sudden violence as many of the scholars had turned out to be traitors and/or sleeper agents and actually that one kind of turned out okay for the House of Scholars if he were to look at it rationally, but it was too late, the train of thought had already gone too far.
Fer suddenly trailed off into a high-pitched and quiet voice, looking as if he'd seen a ghost or some sort of dark premonition.

(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "Are you unwell, Fer? Did our somewhat limited diet affect your stomach?"
(https://i.imgur.com/8QBwBls.png) "Luckily for you, I do know how to prepare a tea for that. I do believe the tea is popularly known as 'Death's Whisper' due to its potency. But does the trick."

It was a weird feeling to be home, effectively, after such a long time away. When she'd left home to become a mercenary she hadn't expected that this was the way life would take her, on some crazy quest collecting Treasures. A quest that eventually led her home, seeking the final Treasure of the set.
(http://i.imgur.com/gUqx7dg.png)"I don't know what sort of rumors you've been hearing, but I'd appreciate it if you didn't imply my home was weird."

"In fairness, every place is strange to somebody. I'm certain there were things you found odd about Alvada."
-
After trying to negotiate some citrus, the group headed to the actual tower. The way was well kept and guarded, while the forests surrounding were ominous enough to deter any excursions. The tower kept growing as they got closer to it, until they were finally at the threshold of the entrance.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): This is... not what I expected. I thought the city would be around the Tower, not inside it.
The first floor of the tower looked very much like a marketplace, with several higher floors overlooking the central area.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)
". . . Are you sure it is not acceptable to describe this as strange? Because this is strange."
-
Ethan smirked, placing his hands on his waist and looking around.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Well, how else did you think they would get money for all the rare stuff they buy from abroad? Rare ingredients don't come cheap, moreso magical ones, I would think."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "Seems easy to grow out of these walls."
Lavinia had grown out of her own hometown, after all. Hard for her to guess if Ashlyn had felt the same. Even as part of Ethan's crew before all of this, there hadn't been much reason to talk about magic or towers between the two of them.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "Very peculiar. But I would imagine this makes defending a lot easier."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)
"Obviously they would have markets, but it's rather queer to have one entirely indoors."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/DycqNoA.png) "Yes, it's rather interesting. No where else have I seen a similar situation."
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/NFQxLytK/amberly-default.png): "Fascinating! I had heard rumors about how everyone in Xos lived inside a tower, but I always assumed they were exaggerations or fanciful stories. Perhaps the city extends underground as well, to provide more space?"
Amberly gazed around at the multi-tiered marketplace in wonder.
-
Fer let out a whistle; his thoughts were still tinged with a distinct sense of impending doom at their edges, following off of his previous train of thought about how bad things tended to happen to all the magical wonderlands they visited, but there was no denying that Xos was a wonderland as far as he was concerned.
(https://i.imgur.com/wDAHPrC.png):"Strange might be one word, you know... but, wow, I think incredible might really be another! This entire city must in some way or another tie into the magical research that Xos does."
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"Maybe it's the case that putting up high level shielding magic is easier between experimental and residential floors of the tower than between the entire tower and the terrain outside of it, allowing for easier protection from any experimentation accidents. Maybe it's the case that some sort of cataclysm previously or effect of the original upturning of the world here has made the Tower the safest place from the outside world. All things to consider! There was that mist, after all, for one, and it may not be an isolated phenomenon..."
(https://i.imgur.com/wDAHPrC.png):"In any event, archaeology and preservation are one thing, but just looking at this place makes me suspect that I will have to give up the title of number one magical research city to Xos very quickly. An entire city devoted to research... if I'm not wrong, I have to admit that blows anywhere else out of the water. I am deeply impressed!"
He shot looks over other to his fellow Magical Nerds.
(https://i.imgur.com/wDAHPrC.png):"Would you two like to see what sorts of magic researchers and vendors might be around? I'd love to just talk to them, although of course a new tome might not go amiss; I've finally cleared all of the sigiling clear off of the fire tome I got handed down from the crew's previous fire mage."

"Let's hope the art of blacksmithing has kept up with arcane study here."
Gawen heads off to look for a weapon shop.
-
Gawen found that Xos' weaponsmiths had nothing to envy to Alvada's or Domiria's, at least in terms of quality. The lack of demand and production coming from experimental measures meant the weapons on sale were pretty much one of a kind.

Amberly reacted to Fer's invitation with a radiant smile.
(https://i.postimg.cc/d0JW0Zpy/amberly-smile.png): "Oh yes, I'd love to look around! We may be able to gain some insight into Xos' history, or learn something about these relics we've been collecting. As for tomes, I have one or two that should probably be retired before they burn out on me."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "Agreed. I might need a new tome as well, something a tad more..fierce perhaps. And this is a fine opportunity to gain more knowledge."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/Fl4SBdQ.png)"Mmm... I wonder if there's something to interest me..."
Lysander tries to find a staff shop
-
(https://i.imgur.com/wDAHPrC.png):"Great! Let's go, then. I'm curious to see how they organize their tome shops, too... back at the library we had our lesser tomes that we'd since figured out how to consistently and easily replicate out front in the shop and the archive in the larger wealth of the library in back, but since Xos is obviously a much larger and multifarious affair, maybe this is just the life's work of one or a few mages in particular, running a business down here... or maybe it's something similar, where a research group has a tome-selling front down here to get funds from the more easily-usable fruits of their research..."
His thoughts starting to descend into mumbling, Fer started moving (having the presence of mind at least to occasionally check to make sure he hadn't lost the other two) in search of a tome shop or Other Magely Location.

Gawen scribbles down a purchase order, then goes to find Claude and verify the expenditure before collecting her wares.
Gawen buys:
Silver Hand for Claude
Killer Lance for Lavinia
Faust for Ashlyn
Brave Sword for herself
-
Party loses 6900 gold!
As Gawen the walking armory walked away from the shops she found a hooded guard looking for her.
Excuse me, are you part of the crew of the... The guard checked a piece of paper he had on him. Blackbones?
-
Gawen puts her Steel Blade up in storage.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)
"Not crew, per se, but yes, I am traveling aboard. Is there an issue?"
-
My daughter's in that crew, you see. Do you know her? Ashlyn? The guard put his hand up to Ashlyn's approximate height (not high).
-
Gawen raised an eyebrow.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)
"Ashlyn? I suppose she did mention being from here. . . I'm not sure where she is at this very moment, but I can find her and bring her back here?"
-
I'm sure we'll have time to catch up later, there's actually something important first. The boss wants to see you, especially your captain.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)
"I see. I'll find the crew at once, then."
-
Fer walked around the magic shops with an expression something more akin to that of a kid at a candy shop - and, he (presumably along with the other two nerds) made a series of purchases aimed at strengthening the power of the magical end of the team, including the staff-wielders.
Fer buys:
Gotoh (for himself)
Duma's Curse (for Vortai)
Mila's Grace (for Amberly)
Heal and Sharpness (for Lysander)
As he purchased the Gotoh from the Anima-focused store, flipping through the newly-purchased tome and eyeing its sigilwork with a careful but quite pleased eye, he chatted up the shopkeeper some.
(https://i.imgur.com/wDAHPrC.png):"I'm curious, what's the relation between tome sales and tome research over here? I come from magic archiving and distribution over on the Alvadan side, and we had a front end that sold copies of the more readily available and easily copied tomes we had, but it definitely was a more anciliary operation than our larger archiving and research work. The shops here are incredible. Are you all directly connected to the research work, or are these independent enterprises?"
-
Party loses 7380 gold!
Most of these are surplus from researchers. You wouldn't believe how many people think they've reinvented the wheel only for the big man to tell them their tome was new a few centuries ago! I did it a couple times myself, and when I found what I was looking for I decided to put all my extras to good use. The shopkeeper tapped some of the rarer tomes.
-
(https://i.postimg.cc/NFQxLytK/amberly-default.png): "Surplus or not, these look like they will do nicely. I do have a few used tomes that need retiring, however. How much can you give me for these?"
Amberly sells Light Screen and Sacred Fire from her inventory, as well as the burnt out Fire tome from storage. She also purchases Magic Seal.
-
For the three I could give... 450 gold, so that'll be...
Party loses 750 gold!
Amberly gets Magic Seal!
-
With the healing unguents almost gone, Claude decides to look for stock.
Check for the place where they sell Vulns and similar.
-
The brewers of Xos also seemed to have a few tricks up their sleeves. A wide variety of drinks, infusions, medicines, tinctures and brews for the crew to choose.
Vulnerary: 300 g
Concoction: 600 g
Elixir: 1000 g

-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "So many tomes, this diversity sure is impressive. I take it the library is just as rich?"
-
The shopkeeper nodded enthusiastically.
Oh, yes! But it's not exactly open to the public. You'd need permission to access the Library of Xos.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "Think anything will explode if I shake it?"
Lavinia hadn't intended to follow Claude after she deposited some spare weapons at the ship, but she'd spotted the back of his head as she made her way through the city crowd and decided to make a quick stop to see what sort of store he was browsing.
Lavinia stores Iron Lance (33/40) in Ship Storage.
-
Fer winced as he was told about the tribulations of some of the researchers of Xos.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png) :"Oof... man, I hate to even think about being in the situation of one of those poor researchers. It's a strange thing, because on my end over in Alvadan archaeological research things are... just kind of the opposite process. You know exactly what you're looking for, and I have the certainty of knowing that it existed thanks to old documentation, but I have no guarantee that it actually exists anymore or that any fruitful means will be open to me to find what I'm looking for until I essentially stumble into it. The breadth of the field helps me to narrow down my possibilities, and there are always other things to find or get involved in which make up the bulk of a career, but frankly it's still almost just as likely that my life's magnum opus completes in the next month as it does in the next twenty years or never. On the other hand, I know I don't have to worry about redundancy, even if it's possible someone else could find it first."
-
You have to remember that the Tower wouldn't be the Tower without the type of researchers that abscond from the world until they're satisfied. The higher you get inside, the more cuckoo they get!
At that point, a guard approached the nerds mages.
Excuse me, are you three part of the Blackbones' crew?
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "I sure do hope we get the opportunity to visit the library before we leave. If gaining the permission to visit isn't too difficult, that is."
Vortai glanced to the side as soon as he heard an unfamiliar voice.
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "Perhaps. May we help you?"
-
I told someone else from the crew already, the boss wants to see you and your captain. The shopkeeper chuckled.
You're in luck, the head cuckoo's calling you in. Might as well ask for library permission while you're at it.
-
As if on cue, Gawen approached the party, horse laden with arms.
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)
"I was going to inform you all of something, but it seems there's no longer a need."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "That is a fine timing indeed. We should join the others then."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "At least I know what these ones do," Lavinia said in an amused tone, turning to signal the shopkeeper. "I'll take seven."
Buy 7 Vulneraries.
Inventory Management:
Ethan: remove broken Hatchet, take Ashlyn's Hand Axe, take vulnerary, store Iron Axe
Lysander: store Heal (30/30) and Quickness
Lavinia: store Iron Lance (33/40) and Slim Lance, take vulnerary
Ashlyn: Hand Axe goes to Ethan as above
Claude: store Armorbreaker, take vulnerary
Amberly: store Sacred Steel, take vulnerary
Marlow: take Blake's weapons (Cutthroat and Caltrops), store Concoction and Elixir
Vortai: discard Swarm, store Toxic, take vulnerary
Fer: store Elfire, take vulnerary
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): I'll take the extra one, if you don't mind. Now let's hurry to see what "the boss" wants with Ethan... though I don't have a good feeling about it.
Everyone gets things.
Carmen gets Vulnerary.
Party loses 2100 gold.
The guards herded the crew upwards floor after floor, each subsequent one becoming more sinister and ominous, soon turning into webs of corridors and doors to what had to be the researchers' personal laboratories. They climbed and climbed until they could climb no more, and at the top floor they saw a lone door, the one that led to the quarters of the Tower's leader.
The final guards knocked on the door, and on an affirmative response ushered the crew in without entering themselves. The office inside seemed small, perhaps even cozy, but the various artifacts and top grade tomes that lined the bookshelves belied the high position of its owner. The man, dressed in a simple long white coat, was standing and gazing at one of such objects, until he saw the crew come in.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): Ah, welcome back, Narius. You returned much earlier than I thought. Oh, wait, it's Ethan now, isn't it? I always have trouble keeping up with your name changes. Will you introduce me to your companions?
Carmen could help but stare at the man with an expression of disbelief.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): ...Is something wrong?
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Nothing. Simply tired." Ethan spoke after a brief moment of silence. "How about you?"
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): I shouldn't be surprised, it must have been quite the trip. As for me, the Tower has been expanded somewhat, you'll find your quarters at the...
As the boss man rambled on, Carmen elbowed Ethan in the ribs and whisper-yelled at him.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): *Do you actually know this man?!*
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): ...Once again I must ask if everything is alright. You're acting a bit more out of character than usual, and your companions seem... alarmed, for some reason.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "No I do not, but I was this close to learning more about the fake Narius!" Ethan pulled out the hand axe he was given and pointed it at the mage's head.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Alright, now that I know that you are in cahoots with the enemy, lemme tell you: no, I am not Narius. I am Ethan, the Ethan, Captain of Bloodbones, and if you're gonna try to call guards, you will be dead before they get here." He took a step forward.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "No funny moves, or your head starts rolling, and that would inconvenience your studies, wouldn't it?"
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): Oh.
Suddenly, Ethan's axe was ripped from his hands by a strong upwards force, with the axe ending up stuck to the ceiling. All weapons the crew had on them were similarly pulled up, and the magic users sensed the presence of a strong nullifying field wash over them.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Gh! You and your diplomatic ways...
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): My most sincere apologies, I appear to have made a mistake. Though I have to say... you look very similar to the "Narius" I know. Or should I say that he looked similar to you when I last saw him, since he tends to change at times.
The man took a seat behind his desk before continuing, as the crew found themselves slightly less mobile than usual.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): Regardless, it seems like there has been trouble, and that man was involved somehow. I don't receive news from the outside that often, so I must ask you: what has Narius done that it necessitated you coming here and threatening me, and is it related to your closeness in appearance?
Carmen grumbled, but refused to say anything unless someone else would decide to contribute first.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)
"Oh, he only impersonated the rightful heir and performed a coup to take the throne of Alvada using false relics, the process of which may doom the world," Gawen said dryly.
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): Oh dear. Does that mean Captain Ethan is...?
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): The rightful heir to the Kingdom of Alvada? Affirmative. And the-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): Could you please wait here for a moment? I need to confirm this really quickly with someone.
The man got up from his seat hurriedly and walked through a side wall. Carmen loudly sighed, eye beginning to twitch. A few minutes later, the man reappeared from an entirely different wall.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): I've just received the news, and your story checks out. The two Nariuses, the two sets of Royal Treasures... Once again I must deeply apologize, the Tower has a strict policy of non-interference. Seeing how this is a very serious case of interference, that man can consider himself... exiled.
The crew could feel the weight of their bodies gradually return to normal as the man bowed to them and sat down on his seat again.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): There's still the issue of dooming the world, and I don't believe exile solves that.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): Of course. But seeing as we have much to discuss, I should properly introduce myself beforehand. I am Xos, Archmage of the Tower that bears my name. Now, where to begin?

The series of events that unrolled pretty much the moment that the crew of the Blackbones entered the upper levels of the Tower of Xos (a process that, despite all of the travel and walking Fer had done by now, still managed to slightly wind him - that was a LOT of stairs) was rapidly overwhelming - and especially alarming when Fer experienced what he could only describe as an "anti-magic field" of some sort, one that he could instinctually feel.
And then, of course, there was what the strange mage said - a statement that shot Fer's eyebrows up to his hairline.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):The Xos the Wise? There's no denying that you are a powerful mage -this magic field I'm experiencing right now is something wholly new to me- but by that claim, you would be more than two hundred and fifty years old."
-
Xos nodded.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): Indeed, I believe my three century anniversary is around this decade.
-
Fer opened his mouth, closed his mouth, and then opened it, and then closed it again, casting a somewhat bewildered look at the rest of the crew for some sort of direction before he seemed to find his footing.
(https://i.imgur.com/dAdj8Lo.png):"O... kay..."
(https://i.imgur.com/dAdj8Lo.png):"If that's the case... in the days when you were setting up the tower... was it something about the time period that motivated you to set it up? What was it like when you didn't receive buy-in from older Alvadan mage families like the Jassos?"
At some point during the asking of these questions, one of his battered old notebooks and a quill practically materialized into his hands; he was kind of testing "Xos" by seeing if and by how much the older (and possibly much older) mage's knowledge exceeded his own, but if he actually was telling the truth, this was invaluable testimony.
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): The struggles the Jassos had gone through were actually one of the reasons I decided to set up this tower. At first it wasn't even meant to be such a grand enterprise, it started as a temporary retreat away from the Iron Fist... Something like the House of Scholars, perhaps, but I didn't expect or demand support from any specific families, precisely because of the non-interference principle I based the Tower on. But as time passed, its popularity with researchers grew so much that they started asking for permanent residence, and the rest is history.
-
Fer dutifully jotted down what he was hearing, under the heading of "Xos?", a timeline being plotted out on the left of the page. He stopped for a brief moment at a certain point of the timeline, jotting his quill's side against the page a couple of times as he raced to try to remember the relevant dates. These were very relevant years for any mage particularly well-versed in history, but...
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"A retreat from the Ironfist... well, I suppose that would predate the Tower phase of things. You must have been... pretty young when that first started."
Sort of a funny thing to say if his claims really were true.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "...I cannot say I expected to see you around. Safe to assume you found yourself a way to cheat death."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Three hundred years is very old," Lavinia said as if to help Fer out with the comparison.
She seemed to be sizing the archmage up, though less inclined to try to fight him with her bare hands compared to a few moments earlier.
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): Indeed. I grew up during those times of repression, and some might say I had a hand in Xaver Jr.'s succession ploy... But the Tower and it's non-interference policy weren't established then yet, so it's a moot point.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): Anyways, mine is an unnatural lifespan, and yet there is someone out there even older than I am. As it happens, your dear Captain's lookalike is well over four hundred years old.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): You can't be serious. And please never say the words "dear Captain" ever again.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): I assure you I am. He was already unnaturally old when I met him in these very woods, practically a wild man who barely remembered his own name. The problem is, such methods to extend one's lifespan require a sacrifice. I lost my freedom, and he seems to have lost his sanity, more deeply than I thought at first.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)
"What names has this man gone by previously? He has to have seen Captain Valle before."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): I couldn't tell you off the top of my head the full list of names he's taken trying to find his own identity, but I can tell you the first one, the one he reliably responded to. When I first met him, all he could tell me about himself was that he was named Atan.
-
Fer scribbled down more notes in the "Xos?" section and frowned a little - well, it all still potentially checked out, but it still wasn't strict confirmation. Maybe he wasn't getting strict confirmation or disconfirmation, though. He would just have to accept that for now - he turned the page, and started a new heading: "Atan?/Narius?".
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"Atan... I've heard that name."
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):"Atan... Atan... right. I remember, now. It was during the attack on the House of Scholars."
(https://i.imgur.com/w6FPKYQ.png):"Some of the false scholars there were talking about worshipping a god called "Atan" - I recall church-affiliated members of our own crew," he glanced at Amberly, "as well as somebody I know within the House of Scholars both mentioning that "Atan" wasn't a real Old God and that that was confusing behavior."
Fer put a hand to his head.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"I swear, though, if this ends up having to do with my brother's theory anyway..."
-
Amberly was having a rather overwhelming day. First the sheer scope of the tower, then the treasures of the tome sellers, then the many (far too many) stairs, the magic and history on display, and now this?
For perhaps the first time, the nun was struck by just how far she had traveled from her convent.
(https://i.postimg.cc/NFQxLytK/amberly-default.png): "That's correct. There is no mention of an "Atan" in the holy books, nor in any of the texts I know of. If this Atan was ever considered an Old God of some description, it would be something apocryphal that even the House of Scholars weren't aware of. Unfortunately, we haven't found any clues except for the one you just gave us."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "Truly peculiar...to think there are folks out there able to live for so long."
(https://i.imgur.com/BPtBu3g.png) "Ah, Atan...That was a troublesome day indeed. It does make me wonder if this man didn't use his long lifespan to create a twisted religion based on himself."
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "A man with few memories and being able to live for so long can be a volatile mix, after all."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Doesn't seem like we'd have many examples to tell."
Unless the others knew more very old people other than that Narius and this Xos.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/Ld1jvzK.png) "Oh? But we don't need to, my armored friend."
(https://i.imgur.com/BPtBu3g.png) "The human kind is a peculiar thing, and a mind without memories can lead to despair and confusion...the desire to carve a path and sort of direction..."
(https://i.imgur.com/NQekuVP.png) "...And take a much more dangerous path. Sometimes even your surroundings can lead you to such situation...after all, it isn't uncommon for mankind to see odd or unlikely events as something related to the act of a god."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): Exactly. I tried to restore Atan's sanity as best I could, as I knew he had much to share, being so long-lived, but it appears I underestimated how far gone he was. Hearing all of this is most concerning... Just how long has Atan been doing this for?
Meanwhile, Carmen was mumbling to herself.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): ...It couldn't be. It's too insane.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): Hm? What seems to be the problem?
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): I might have made a mistake in my way of thinking. This Atan... the fake Narius, at first I thought he was part of a Domirian ploy. How did he learn, not just about Ethan, but also about the Royal Treasures? Did he learn of them here?
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): You mean the Royal Treasures of Alvada? We have talked about them on ocassion, but I'm not sure if that would be of any help. I'd wager knowledge about the five Royal Treasures is pretty widespread, at least among researchers of magic-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Hold on. Five? I've always heard about three from scholars: the ring, the crown and the bracelet.
Xos massaged his temples.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): Hmmm, most strange. Let me recall... The ring, the crown, the bracelet... and then there was the orb and the amulet, that should be the five. He told me about them long ago- Oh, I see what you mean.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): I knew it. I knew it but it cannot be possible. It just can't.
-
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "An orb? We've gotten a strange orb... feels like years ago... anyway, the previous owner was very possessive of it." Ethan turned to his crew, then scratched his cheek.
(http://i.imgur.com/2YyLb19.png) "Who has it?"
-
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "Should still be Ashlyn, ever since we took it off that old man on that Domirian ship."
Lavinia wasn't too concerned with whatever Carmen's newfound realization was. No matter if that Narius was the mastermind or a Domirian puppet (though where did that leave the blame for what happened in Demura?), they still needed to take him down. That hadn't changed.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "You look like us when we learned Ethan was royalty."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): It might not be that far off. The more historically inclined may remember a certain Atan from four hundred years ago...
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): Ah, you must mean Prince Atan. The original Alvadan dynasty died with him, and since then descendants of the cadet branches have inherited the throne. I considered that possibility too, but discarded it since Prince Atan was supposed to have died at sea far to the east of here. Even if he had survived, I don't consider it possible that he made his way to the other side of the continent by himself and voluntarily live as a wild man.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): And if he was Alvadan royalty, he wouldn't have needed this whole scheme, right? He could have just used the original Royal Treasures and claimed the throne at any point. But then how do you explain him knowing so much about them? And why did he focus so much on the Alvadan throne in particular?
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): Hmm... Except for the amulet, all other Treasures have passed through here, and the orb was the only one we could do something with. If those are supposed to only function with Alvadan royalty, it would discard that possibility.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "Considering the amount of absurdity we have saw so far, I would throw away any sort of doubts or skepticism towards unlikely or near impossible situations if they connect with other issues."
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "I do wonder what his end goal is, though."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"For what it's worth, just about the only thing we do know for sure here is that we're talking about somebody who has already faked being a last hope heir one time; one speculative possibility that follows is that whatever is going on now with "Narius" and, er, Narius (by which I mean the captain this time) is a parallel to whatever it is that happened with Prince Atan historically."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): It might help to consider an alternate point of view as well. If this man really is Prince Atan, what could be the reason for him to not be able to use the real Treasures? And how did he go from being sunken in eastern waters to these woods?
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Vortai has a point. Speculation won't really help us here, we know it's not going to end well. We can always interrogate him after we've crushed his plans and undone the usurpation, and for that, we need the last Treasure.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "Right. And while we are already here...would it possible for you to grant us access to the library?"
-
Fer scratched his head, deep in thought for a long, long, long moment.
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"I'm not sure how much I have to offer other than speculation, I guess; my thought would naturally be that Atan would be a historical impostor of, well, Atan, but I have a brother over at the House of Scholars who has been doing a lot of research in a pretty unusual direction. Actually, he did want me to talk about this at this tower, too, and it'd be a bit negligent not to ultimately bring it up. His own research indicated that a lot of artifacts and other relics related to the Old Gods tended to be found on coastal sites - even relative to pre-Reckoning geography. He also theorized that the Old Gods were physically in contact with humanity... uh, well, with what we're seeing here, maybe they were a people who had access to this immortality magic, I guess. His conclusion is that the Old Gods may have lived under the sea, had a long-term relationship with pre-Reckoning Alvada, but took the terraforming attempts of the Reckoning as an attack and lashed out in return."
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"Where Atan there fits in gets a bit weird. If this is some guy that actually went into the sea and came back, then maybe he had some sort of contact, but that wouldn't explain the treasures. If he's actually a member of the same people my brother theorizes about, then he wouldn't be accounted for among the Old Gods maybe just because Atan isn't his name, but I'm not sure why he wouldn't be able to interface with the treasures. If it's all unrelated, at least I got to bring it up."
-
For his part, Claude just casually scooted closer to Lavinia.
(https://i.imgur.com/DycqNoA.png) "History isn't my favored intellectual pursuit. Plus I've long accepted this would be a journey of madness from the point Ethan was revealed as the royal heir."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "Not the first time you read about mortals trying to become gods, I am sure. History or not, it is a somewhat...common theme in books."
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "But to actually see it happening certainly is peculiar."
-
Xos thought for a moment.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): That is quite a theory. I assume that's the reason you want access to the Library?
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): I'd hate to interrupt the advancement of historical discoveries but there is something we must do or else we will become history.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): Hmm... Very well. Let me propose this plan of action then: Since Atan is now considered an exile, none of our protections regarding his research or property apply. This means you're free to enter and search for the Treasure and whatever else might help you. Meanwhile, I'd like to delve into this theory with your fellows, and perhaps grant you access to the Library. Usually we require a written contribution in exchange, but if our talk elucidates something interesting, I can easily grant a special permission.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): Doesn't sound like a bad deal to me but-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): Before I forget, you should take care if you enter his space. Due to our protections, whatever you find there could be dangerous.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): ...How dangerous, exactly?
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): He's had the highest level of protection I can offer, and even then he's seemingly kept me successfully in the dark about much of his plans, so... Unknown danger.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/rEErl9i.png)
"Considering the amount of magical guardians we've faced on the way here, not to mention the cultists and traitors, we shouldn't face too much trouble. Especially given the wealth of equipment we've acquired from the markets here."
-
(http://i.imgur.com/YD5FZuZ.png) "Fine, wouldn't want to get blown up by some magic puzzle while you're having a talk," Lavinia said, leaning on her lance and otherwise inclined to agree with Gawen.
(http://i.imgur.com/gdgQMU4.png) "But if it's a fight, we can handle it."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): That is quite a theory. I assume that's the reason you want access to the Library?
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "One of my reasons, I do have another reason in mind."
(https://i.imgur.com/T7BvZ5M.png) "We had been through... a lot. So I am certain we will be able to reach our objective. Especially when failure is not an option."
-
(https://i.imgur.com/wDAHPrC.png):"Thank you so much."
(http://i.imgur.com/BCLXwZJ.png):"If I, er, survive long enough to get back to him, my brother will be overjoyed with whatever knowledge I can bring him."
(https://i.imgur.com/WWLKg4k.png):"As for whatever traps he has down here... I'll make sure to keep my head on a swivel. I've had to deal with a few back in my day, although I didn't often get to places with more than a minor presence of this sort of thing."
-
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/2rphnwyl0mekkhy/xos.png?raw=1): We are in agreement then. Good luck in there. Xos nodded and called for one of the guards to guide them.
The guard, a high ranking officer, was telling the group about the high security research floor as he led them to Atan's laboratory. The floor was much gloomier than the bottom floors of the Tower, deadly silent and with nary a soul in sight around the corridors.
The walls here are magically reinforced so that not only they're nigh indestructible, no sound is capable of getting through them. The doors have similar properties, so yelling for help or trying to break out will not work. If we don't hear anything from you in one hour, we'll open the door and go in ourselves just in case. Keep in mind the walls will also block any teleportation spells from letting you through...
Here we are. After the full disclosure, they were finally at Atan's door.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvu8cvu4sad4isx/carmen.png?raw=1): So if everything goes wrong, we just have to survive for one hour locked in here... Doable, I suppose. Carmen's glowering enthusiasm was showing again as the door opened and the group entered the laboratory.
The sinister ambience was even worse inside. As soon as the door shut behind them, red goop began flowing upwards from the floor to form some unnatural humanoid entities. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-CLAPJ1PLs)

Enemy Phase
The grey fighters ready their weapons, but they seem to be inferior or too obvious to the originals, who avoid the attacks with relative ease.
Ashlyn? moves to H2.
Ashlyn? attacks!
Hit: 129 + 15 - 10 - 64 = 70. Roll: 87. Miss!
Claude? attacks!
Hit: 127 - 10 - 2 - 66 = 49. Roll: 84. Miss!
Amberly counterattacks!
Hit: 130 + 10 + 2 - 57 = 85. Roll: 88. Miss!
But lest this be a sign of the situation calming, two more copies come out to play.
Enemy reinforcements!
Allied Phase
Carmen pointed to the other Vortai as priority target while shuffling closer to Marlow and the next door.
Carmen moves to K6.
Vortai? is Marked for Death!

The mirror cracks with a loud sharp noise, as the gray fog stops coming out of it. The clones, however, remain stable for the moment.
Meanwhile, Marlow opens up a room with a singular suit of armor and an axe. He quickly backs off as the armor slowly starts moving by itself.
Enemy Phase
The swordsman raises the great blade and slams it against Amberly for grievous damage! To make matters worse, she's unable to hit the counterattack so she has to dodge an opportunity strike from behind the gray man.

And to add, the goo men return on the other side of the corridor.
