You rushed forth and used your magical powers with good results. Markus used the Arcana of Intangibility to great effect, turning three victims ethereal and thus saving them from the train that would have crushed them. He felt a couple of small drains to the brightness of his Soul Gem by using this power on others, however..
Ancia transformed into a wolf form, and managed to rescue two victims by quickly sprinting to them and grabbing them with her strong teeth, throwing them away from the danger. She felt a drain smaller than she expected, and realized the most mass conversion she had to do was related to the fur and muscle mass of the wolf form.
Ryan, using a clever move, successfully controlled his dulled kamas and bound two victims down, ensuring they wouldn't harm themselves.
Tracy was the most successful of the fledgling Magic Knights; using her heightened agility, she managed to barely rescue four victims before the train arrived, the last one inches away from being crushed into a red pulp.

Dora shot her crossbow at the feet of one of the victims, and the bolt burst as a mass of yellow ribbons that coiled around the old man faster than the eye can blink, and bound him to the ground. Sofia panicked as she was running for the last victim, and tripped. Dora however seemed to expect it, and shot her other crossbow at the last victim, ensuring everyone was saved. The train let out smoke as it arrived, and the Magic Knights turned back to normal before the train cars opened up.
While the people started to gather around the saved citizens and a small commotion was brewing up, you decided to leave the scene and avoid the law enforcement that would surely soon come to investigate the strange incident.

"Ow...well, that went bad," Sofia said you went to a hidden corner of the train station, holding her rear. "Sorry, Dora. I kind of lost my cool back there."
The blonde girl smiled. "That's fine, you're still learning. The important thing is that we saved them all."
"So, what was with them? They seemed to be brainwashed," Sofia said as she scratched her head. "They also had some kind of tattoo on their necks."

Dora turned around, and frowned. "They were victims of a Warlock's Bite: once marked with one, a curse of despair overcomes you, and it forces you to commit suicide. Since this Warlock managed to curse so many people at once, it means the monster's Lair must be close. We'll have to search the area."

"Maybe we are." Felice told her, "But if we are, then there is at least some comfort in knowing one another." Felice blinked when she said what her power was. "So, did you listen in on us or is that your power? Knowing things...or maybe you can sense things as well..." Felice suggested. "Of course, You shouldn't really have a power since you didn't make a contract or a wish, or so Qubus said. But maybe you made a contract with someone else...or maybe you didn't need anyone to awaken the power in you."[/quote]

The black-haired girl's eyes wandered towards another table, like she was reminiscing. "Qubus is not entirely incorrect. In a sense, I have not made a contract with it. And yet here I am, a Magic Knight still holding onto her hope."

[quote=onenote]Felice suggested resting her head on her hand. "I mean, maybe that's not it but I'm trying to work with the info I got. As far as I can tell, you're at least neutral to us, not working against us at the moment. I would love to get some actually info from you other then some very poetic distractions."
But as you say this you hear something. Its a short sound, barely lasting a few seconds...but it was an unnatural sound. The only thing you can akin it to is the scrapping of nails on a chalkboard, and even that didn't do the sound justice. You got a feeling that you needed to catch up to the others now. "S-Sorry..." You say, standing up, "My endless stream of questions will have to wait for later!"[/quote]

"There are things in this world you shouldn't seek to know so hastily," Julia said as you were starting to leave. "Unless you care little for your sanity."

[quote=onenote]Felice give her a wave before running off to find her friends. She saved time by jumping over rooftops, which was pretty easy for her to do with her new magical abilities. By the time she saw the train station, she could see that the train has pulled in and she began to look for the others there.

You found the others walking around the train station, keeping a bit of distance from the train tracks where people were bustling. Sofia greeted you. "Hi Felice. So, did Julia try to creep you out?" She asked, curious. Dora also came, filled you in on what happened there, and asked you to join their search for the entrance to the Warlock's Lair.

"Their malicious energies seep through these portal-like doors. It must be around here somewhere," she said.
