[i]During the time right before the Anima was activated. The cloaked figure defined as Wizard X watched the fighting under the building silently blending into the shadows. Watching as the Council's little captured wizard managed to escape under all the little destruction the two parties caused. Having not much other choice, Wes activated the Anima. Quite perfect, everything was going according to plan. Unfortunate for Edolas, but they at least didn't have to deal with magic just quite yet. 

As the large light glowed brilliantly as a pillar was shot to the sky, several Phoenix Wing members being pulled in. Quickly, the figure jumped from their shadowy hiding place and lept into the light.

A smooth ride overall, and their landing was quite perfect. Although they were forced to deal without magic. Unfortunate, but not required for why they were here. Cloaked in black, the masked wizard walked through the foreign land and into a town. Looking over maps and books to get to where they needed to go. Luckily, they were in the capital. Perfect. Although they were unsure where exactly to go, the Capital was a good way to start. After all, trouble seems to always start at the biggest city.

Finding a soldier that broke off from the others, the masked wizard pulled them into a alley and firmly knocked them out. Quickly taking the armor and switching places before taking the place of a single footsoldier. No one important to stand out, and too low for anyone important to bother with. For now, they'd play the part as they researched the world and the current political enviroment. At one point, guarding a man named Pen's quarters while he was out flying off somewhere on a giant lizard.

But of course the disguised wizard was going to enter. And after rummaging around, found what they were looking for. Ah! Perfect! Those silly little balls that gave returned magic. For now though, they would simply eat it and continue playing the role until the time was right. The return trip now basically set up.[/i]

The Karn look alike examined the glowimg Lacrima between their fingers and gave a soft hum before turning the emerald gaze to the lifeless figure. [color=lime]"Sorry, but I can't take any chances of you returning. After all, I need you for something else. Consider it a way of you disappearing, rather than your friends thinking you're just dead. Though doubtful you'll ever meet again."[/color] 'Karn' said with a grin before gingerly trailing a finger along the body's forehead in a quick writing form. Purple letters appearing.

[color=Lime]"Ash."[/color] they whispered, watching the corpse suddenly turn completely into ash before the copied Karn waved their hand. [color=lime]"Wind."[/color] they whispered and a brief gust of wind blew, blowing the ashes away and scattering them to the sky. Like mere dust in the wind.

Rolling their shoulders, 'Karn' slipped the Lacrima into their jacket before walking down the halls in a soft hum. Mission accomplished. No need to be here now. Suppose they'd hang around with the little Phoenix hatchlings for a bit until returning home. Karn was the perfect disguise as well. None of the Edolas members knew him, and the Earthlanders knew him enough to know he was going to join the Guild, but didn't really know him very much. Most haven't even spoken to him. If they knew him well enough, they might of been able to see the different magical wavelength but they didn't. Of course there were other occurrences they could be found out, like some wacko decides to try suck magic out of them or some Mage with nullify is around, but either way, it will be interesting.

Walking back outside, the blonde hummed a little before face brightening up as they bounded outside the palace but almost tripped over their feet in their excitement. [color=lime]"Don't fall.. Don't fall!"[/color] 'Karn' spoke as they waved their arms panicky before catching themselves and catching their breath.
