Joshua and Amelia followed Jarvis into the titan. Unsure of what to expect inside, Joshua was staying on high alert while Amelia just stuck close to Jarvis. Once they were inside, she closed her eyes and concentrated. Out of her elementals, only two of them actually listened to her more then half the time. Golem happened to be one of them. From under her shirt, several lights came out of the green crystals on her wings and floated into the ground. A magic circle appeared, different from her usual one when summoning the dead. This one was dark green and had a symbol of a stone in the center. The ground under it cracked and from there, her earth elemental burst out of the ground.

"Impressive... you sure that's really a golem though?" Joshua said.

"Do you want to walk up?" Amelia asked

"Shutting up." Joshua muttered before Golem planted it's hands into the ground. The section of floor they were on would rise up and behind traveling along the wall and up the interior of the leg. Amelia just hoped nothing went wrong.

Karn chuckled a little as he watched Melina and Mithera interact before Melina decided to go and greet James. They seemed friendly. In a sense. Glancing to the dragonslayer at his more or less backhanded praise, the blonde beamed happily. "Yeah. It's a fault of mine. Can't help it, I was really looking foreword to being in a Guild. Got a little too excited when I finally could." he chuckled before humming as he looked toward the other Guild Members speaking with this stranger.

"Not sure. Depends how long The Doctor stays I guess. I'm a little worried though. A supposed Dragon quest wouldn't just be sent to one Guild. We should really be getting there as soon as possible. I can fly us there as a wyvern, but I'll be a little tired by the time we get there. Or could go by carriage or train." The blonde mused thoughtfully. This strange man was a bit suspicious, but Hemlock could be in danger. It wasn't like Karn didn't believe Hemlock couldn't take care of himself, but he'd still be bothered a lot if tons of people discovered there was a living dragon around. Especially with the silly rumors on how like a Dragon Heart could cure any illness. Or how hunters would try to skin a dragon hide for armor. Or the worse of those who just want to hunt to say they hunted the best trophy.

Ru had faced the same thing, and he wasn't even a dragon. He could only imagine how worse it was for a dragon.



Watching the group go, the shapeshifter pulled out a book from their jacket. It was quite thick and had a black cover with golden designs. Opening up, they pulled out a quill and started to gingerly write in it as everything went on. Glancing up occasionally to see if there was progress. Humming at the charging Golem, the blonde clicked their tongue. "If they are going to take it down, they better do it quickly. Looks almost done it seems. Wonder how many uppity magical know it all assholes will react to a giant golem popping up?" they mused before continuing to write, though was prepared to join in if the Golem was successful in activating the Anima and go to Earthland.

[Damian]

Narrowing his eyes, he watches the Time Lord leaveing. "For your sake, you'd better not ever try to cause the members of this guild harm, or I will find you. Now if our business is concluded, I've a job to do off at Mount Hakobe."

"Harm? Dear, dear. Have I given the impression I would harm you? Tsk tsk. So sad, that. Quite the opposite really" And with that, the mystery figure walked out the guild, and if anyone looked to see where they went, they would see that the figure just seemed to disappear.

As if into thin air.



Master Jamie sighed softly. "I don't hide who I am, Nero. All my forms, are, in fact me. Just different looks. That is all." They looked to Free the Penguin and sighed heavily, "I find it doubtful that young boy is happy being a penguin. Nor do i doubt the woman wished to be a manticore, nor found that happy. So how do you bring happiness to the people when every "Wish" You give, is tainted?"

They shook their head impatiently, "Do you have wax in your ears? I never said you didn't know how to do magic, Merely this ONE spell is untested, beyond what you did with me. Yes, you know how to do it. No, you don't know the complete implications of it. And in that, all you do is think of yourself. You do not think that this child needs comfort, and care. No, you just wish to test your magic. You aren't a dark mage. I have met many dark mages, and brought them down. You simply aren't one. Just foolish and childish. Which isn't a bad thing. Except you are also selfish"

Jamie looked back to their guild, then to Nero, "My guild protects people. Damage my be caused in the pursuit of bringing in and taking bad guys down. We pay for all damages. And often give back more than we get." A sigh. "I cannot stop her from chosing this, but I can advise against it" And now, he crouched down to the girl. "This man won't care if his spell back fires. Most likely, he will find it as a learning experience. I do not think he can undo anything he does. The Penguin proves this. This is dangerous, and I do not wish to see you hurt. You say you don't see the problem with doing this. I am older, and I understand magic. I know how to protect myself, and it wasn't that much of a risk for me. And you may think that being alone is better, but it isn't. My guild would welcome you with open arms, and you will find happiness there. We can protect you, and can help you learn, and let you grow. How long has it been since you have known you will get three good meals a day, that you will wake up in safety?" Another sigh. "If you would do this, I can't stop you, but I can interfer if something goes wrong"



As Amelia summoned the Golem, Jarvis looked around, for any sign that the Titan was protecting it self, or that those who wish to go to earthland would attack, ready to defend.

He chuckled at the small bickering, and didn't intervene. "Shh. Both of you. Listen, for anything that could be dangerous" He said, amused nonetheless.

[h3][color=orange]Ariel[/h3]
For a while Ariel was on the fence. On the one hand Jamie had shown her kindness and even fed her. Nero seemed to make some good points but as time went on she became more skeptical about what he could do. Or at the very least his ability to control it. Having been unusually quiet for her personality she finally spoke up.

"I have to agree with the guild master right now. I only just met him today but he carried me to his guild hall when I couldn't walk and fed me without even asking anything of me. I don't have any reason to doubt his word. He's only trying to keep you safe." She looked at Nero but it wasn't an expression of hostility. There was a glint in her eyes though. She wanted to say something but held it back for the moment. Maybe because she knew Jamie would advise against it. It was a brief glance and she shifted her stance slightly.

Besides whatever words she had for Nero she was waiting of Jamie to be free. He'd asked about her and Edolas but took off before she could say anything. That didn't bother so much then as now. Her arms crossed she drummed her fingers against her her other arm impatiently.

@Lugubrious@Caits@liferusher

For a few seconds Nero silently fumed, anger coursing through his body, very much at odds with the wild smile plastered on his face. Finally, he exclaimed, “For the last time, Free is going to change back in less than an hour! None of my Curse Laws are permanent unless the target wills it." For the first time, his tone carried with it the tone of wrath, but he made a visible effort to bite back his tongue. He glared at Jamie, then at Free, but when he turned to see Ariel he thought he saw a brief light in her eyes: a tinge of something very undefined but very valuable. When Nero spoke next, his tone had changed ever-so-slightly, taking on a trace of an actor not quite playing the part. "I'm starting to figure out that only one thing is going to convince you that my intentions are pure!” he intoned in a strange, clipped growl.

“INTERNSHIP!” He roared, his voice reverberating with energy.

In the wake of his outburst a second of stunned silence trickled forth, even the murmur of talk and drone of insects in the background. Nero stood in a theatrical pose, locked in place, but his eyes flickered back and forth. Finally, he could hold it no longer. “Bahahahahahaha!” he guffawed, falling helplessly to his knees. “Did you think I was—heeheehee--gonna fight you? Ha! I'm not even a C-rank combat mage. You pulling my thumbs off and feeding me them woulda been really funny, though. Never had thumb before, heh. So here's the deal! I'll take your offer of welcoming and friend-treating, back in the guild! Not gonna try new spell anymore, sure sure. If you like, I'll help out with jobs. You know I don't care about money, and I can be pretty useful! I can give magic power boosts, turn buddies into hard stuff to shrug off powerful spells -for only a second or so mind you- and on guy nicknamed me his 'living requip' back when I traveled with him cuz I'm really good at dressing people.” Nero rose to his full height, but the hostility was gone, replaced by a surprising mellow. “That sounded kinda weird, but you get the idea. I don't wanna join your guild, but I wanna try it out. Maybe you can too, dearie, so you don't have to choose between Jamie and me. We can be the Goon Squad! If you're gonna protect the world from me, 'master', you might as well have me at arm's reach.”

“So let's start over!” Now the bespectacled boy stepped forward again, holding out his left hand. Even for someone who didn't quite understand normal behavior, the gesture for cooperation and friendship was well-known. “I, Nero LeMure, the Genie, shall prove that even someone with darkness in his heart can be a star! I'll join my purpose with yours, like mixing chocolate and peanut butter to get something even tastier! If you'll take a humble dark mage under your wing...your Phoenix wing, that is! Ah, that's a good one!”

Location: Titan's left interior leg

Edo Shulter walked up the steps slowly as he heard Mayt comment on their name. With a displeased expression on his face. "I doubt our dictionaries are different between our worlds since we can understand each other. But maybe if you went busy being too smart, you'll known that it also means something of a higher or second-order kind, something far reaching than what you could imagine. That's how we're able to do what we do. After Mayt asked for his sword back, Edo Shutler gripped it tightly and encased it in a pitch black box. As he tossed it down the stair, Bryght's body lit up brightly again and zig zagged down the steps towards Mayt with his glaive ready to strike. Edo Shutler did the same as his body turned pitch black and zig zagged up the steps with a shadowy glaive formed, similar in shape just like Bryght's glaive, ready to strike Mayt too. Both moved in such a swaying motion that would make it difficult for their opponent to tell from what side both will attack from, especially since both were dashing from opposite ends.

As the three of them continued their journing upwood, Jarvis spied a crowd of people, that could only be those Edolasians that were hoping to be transfered to Earthland. Figuring this was the perfect chance, Jarvis turned to Joshua and said, "Keep Amelia safe, although I am sure her spirits can do a good job of that. I'm going to transfer those Edoasians somewhere safe" He gave Amelia a smile, looking back over to the crowd, he judged the distance, and leaped off the Summoned Golem, landing quite close to the crowd.

Without any hesitation, he had a larger lacarima in his hands, almost the size of a basketball. He smashed it, and those Edolasians would see a bright light, and then, sudden, they would find themselves in a forested area, house's there, with plenty of game, a river and good land to grow. "Well that's a first. YOU all will be safe here! It might not be earthland, but you are safe!"



Penny soared over the air, effortlessly it seemed, searching, and then she saw the bright blue light. She flew through the tunnel the light was coming from, and found herself in the head. How strange, she thought. She landed, her flames dying away, and looked around. "hmmm" The blue light seemed to be coming from a giant blue ball, the was glowing brightly. "This must be the thing that's cause all this commotion. I wonder what would happen if i just..." a ball of fire formed in her hand, and she through it at the Anima, figuring that if she damaged it, she could at least weaken its abilities. "Did this" as the Anima connected, she watched to see what would happen

Sayuri

She stares at the titan. She frowns slightly, 'What is this feeling... It's... Like my magic's reacting to... Something...' she shakes her head and turns to look around. The feeling tugged her back towards the titan, "I'm gonna have to head there aren't I..."

When she arrives at the foot the feeling had faded. It bothered her not knowing what the feeling was but she shook it off. She entered the titan and began searching. Hearing fighting up a staircase near her she turns and heads up. When she arrives she sees one of her guildmates, Mayt if she remembered correctly, being flanked by a mass of shadows and a one of light. She drew her sword and attached the sheath to her belt. Picking up her pace she gathers darkness around the blade and leaps near the light one. Slashing down at it she fires a wave of darkness releases from the blade.

"Well Amaya, you saved me from death. I am in you're debt." Lucas got up and gave a little stretch. "Huh... I seem to be.... back to normal." Lucas chuckled, a friendly and warm laugh. He turned, realizing Amaya had given him her hoodie to lay on, he walked but to the table and picked it up. Lucas flung it around her shoulders and continued to talk, "Thank you Amaya. You didn't have to help me. Now, you have helped me a lot but a side affect of this poison is I have a massive craving for something cold... is there any ice cream around?" He finished with a smile towards Amaya.

"Aye, aye captain." Joshua said before Jarvis lept off the building. He glanced down at the little girl beside him, who seemed to be tiring a bit. He figured keeping the elemental in their plane of existence took a lot of magic and the long it was out, the more tired she would get. He had to hope nothing happened after she ran out of energy. Protecting her now would be hard enough as it was. But if she was too exhaughsted to do anything as a result of her summoning, that just made things harder until Jarvis got back, assuming he even did.

[Damian]

After looking around for the mysterious Time Lord for a couple minutes, Damian grunts and heads back towards the others. "You don't give off an unpleasant vibe at all, Mister Time Lord." Stopping at the table, he looks over the trio of wizards coming with him, though he wasn't sure if Mithera counted as a wizard, since he knew hardly anything about her. "Alright, ladies and gents. With creepy black cloaked nutjub gone, we can get going. Anything any of you need before we leave?"

He considered going and getting his sabers himself, he hadn't had much chance to use them since he'd figured out Blade Change. Of course, if it really is a dragon, then I'd only be taking them to their early retirement and they're all I've got left of mom and dad. Deciding against, he looks expectantly at Karn and Zenoram.

[James]

James didn't register right away that Melina had said anything to him, let alone, touched him or even kissed his cheek. When he did, he looked her in the eye. "And you're a much more pleasant person than when we last met. Perhaps the next time we see each other, we won't be having to keep you under watch for the duration."

Trinity sighs softly to herself, as the stranger leaves. Sure he said he didn't mean them harm, but that could mean anything. He could be a scout, or he could mean something sinister that only technically doesn't harm them. Or he could be lying. He left peacefully enough, but it didn't sit with her.

The singer approaches Damian as he prepares to leaves, producing the photo and showing it to Damian. "This is what had me on edge. The blood. I worry for the women he said he got this picture from... Where's that news group he was talking about? I'll go check it out."

Mayt scoffed slightly. "Beyond what I can imagine? Pretty tall words, and it won't stop me. Whether you use magic or some other force, it doesn't matter." He made a small grimace as Edo-Shutler threw his sword down the stairs, and he rolled his shoulders, watching the two fly around. As the came close, he murmured something, and a magic circle appeared as his feet, glowing brightly. "You two seem to be opposites, but I suppose if there's light, there must be darkness." He rolled his shoulders, and glanced as Sayuri tried to attack Bryght. "Shape Magic: Ethereal Field. Equalize Light!" While there would be no immediate visible effect, but after a moment Bryght's light would start to be drained away while the opposite would happen to Edo-Shutler, light being amplified around him and pushed into his shadow.

Melina chuckled, and ruffled James' hair. "Mmm, you act like I was actually trying to kill you that other time." She smiled, and started to head back to Mithera and the othera. "Perhaps you won't, perhaps you will have to look after me, regardless, I will see you some other time Jamsie." She moved next to Mithera, who was sitting on the ground, waiting to get going. "We'll need to stop somewhere along the way for about half-an-hour or so so Mithera can change forms." Melina said simply, resting a hand on Mithera's head.

Lazarus

He nodded. "Yeah. We should. Shut this thing down before it leaves." His wings extended fully. He offered for her to cling onto him. "You could walk up? Or I can take you... I'll tell you one thing... I'm not walking." He laughed, hovering a few inches off of the ground.

Ayame didn't enjoy watching them both argue. It reminded her about her own life alot. Everywhere in her life there was constant arguing and sometimes it would even break out to a heavy fight. Her father and mother would argue from time to time but it all ended up fine with sometimes only some minor damage to the suroundings. It was a rule a out on the streets. The strongest gets the most, just like most animal spiecies. So it mostly was her being knocked over and none of the food left. She shyly found her way behind Nero his back when he told her to sit tight. So it was her figure was that the arguing would only be getting worse. She braced herself from getting pulled into this any further. She just wanted her wish after all everything else wasn't asked for after all. She was still luring from Nero his side and kept listening what they were both saying. She looked up to Nero when she heard about the penguin and the manticore, she didn't know what a manticore was or what exactly happend but she stared into Nero his eyes with her own innocent eyes to ask if it probably was true. It wouldn't change her toughts about him since she still felt like he was a good person somewhere deep inside.

It was somewhat shocking that a boy had changed into a penguin, was Nero like a real deal mage? That would have meant that the shadow was indeed removed from his body so having anything potential to the body removed would be dangerous. She had to take it light after all till she was really sure if his magic was real. She hasn't seen magic like that before so she wondered what he could do even more. Something remarkable came to pass her ears 'My guild' she wondered if he really was the guild master of Phoenix wing. She heard it had a lot of members and the sound from inside clearly gave away they were having fun. She stared a moment at Jamie while thinking with her mouth slightly open. When Jamie suddenly appeard right in her face she blushed a little before pulling her face behind Nero, only looking at Jamie with one eye. Ayame ignored the first part of his talking about Jamies guild again and being alone isn't better but soon opened her mouth to only mutter at his last question "3 years..." she averted her eyes with a somewhat depressed face not wanting to talk more about it while Jamie asked the question.

Her eyes were foccused on the ground after having said something about herself at the same time she heard a sigh but her eyes shot up again when he kind of approved to use the magic. Having to blink twice it did end up convincing Jamie somewhat. She looked up at Nero with a sweet smile and was about to ask if he was ready to do the magic. But before she could do that she first heard Ariel and Nero talking. She was a little suprised that other people also joined Phoenix wing, after being helped. But wasn't it a magic guild only for people that could use magic? Or did Ariel have magic herself. It was a relief to hear Nero his tricks weren't permanent and it only made her more curious to have it being done on herself. She heard about his deal and wanted to turn it down but of course she wasn't able to do it since it was not directed to her. She needed to ask him later about this requip and what it acctually did. She heard out Neros proposal and it was fine by her except "I wanna get my own wish first! I only do it for that and I don't care what happens after."

Zero couldn't help but laugh a bit after a slightly disgruntled grunt when Melina spoke and subsequently walked over to the other mage. "Well Karn. I guess that's just what makes you you." He grinned and pat the feminine male on the back. "But you're growing on me. Don't pull a 180 or anything yet." He got a bit closer. "And if you're in pain. Talk to Zenoram." Zero wasn't being mean. He figured Zenoram could be a lot more sympathetic and helpful than he could. "But if somebody tries to hurt you. I'll handle it." With that said he turned to face Damian as the hooded man left.

"As for travelling... Who knows. It doesn't really matter does it?" He asked calmly. Unfortunately for the dragon slayer who had never truly traveled far from his home, he had never been on a carriage or train. He didn't know the horror that awaited him.

Then Damian spoke. "I got everything I need." He spoke calmly. "Karn? Mithera?" Then there was Melina again. The request seemed like a bit of a waste of time, but he understood. "I guess stopping would be fine with me. Although... Fuck... We should just get going quick." He said with a sigh as he ran his fingers through his hair.

"I'm getting a bad feeling about this... I hope Hemlock is okay."
"He can take care of himself. We'll need to keep and eye on Mr. S-Class."
"Yeah... I guess... But... Well... At least you're being a little more nice now."
"I got it already."

Things were at least moving along now. Zero and Zenoram were still restless though. They had good reason to be.

Karn watched as the strange mystery man left, seeming to simply vanish as soon as he walked out of the building. Not long, Damian was walking toward them but Karn turned to Zero as he spoke, blinking a little at the slightly surprising kindness. Zero was a good person, Karn was sure, he was just the type that didn't really express it. Not like he'd have much experienced he was apparently born in order to protect Zenoram. Plus the two of them lived on a mountain secluded from everyone other then a dragon. Hemlock seemed like a kind and wise dragon, but it was like most kids. Some socializing was usually required to those of the same age. Or something like that. He couldn't really talk, since Master Rian and Ru were older. Sinny was around the same age, but Karn was unsure if that was a good example of socializing.

Face brightening at the words and pat on the back, the blonde was just about to instinctevly huggle the Dragon Slayer before blinking in surprise as Zero came closer and explained that it was alright to talk to Zenoram if the transformation wizard was in pain. At first, Karn didn't understand, but soon realized that Zero might have caught on to his flinch earlier. Master Rian did say Dragon Slayers could be quite more observant if they want to. Especially those that were raised by actual dragons rather than Lacrima based.

The blonde gave a smile, though instead of bright and energetic, it was soft and thoughtful. "Thanks! I'll be sure to do that. You two are quite kind." he said cheerfully, but doubted he would tell them. It was hard to explain that his pain was considered normal. He rather not disturb the two of them with such a thing. It just led to worrying and hopelessness. It was alright though, it was normal and a everyday thing, it just was worse the passed few days because he couldn't feel Master Rian's magic.

As Zero mentioned he'd hurt someone if they tried to hurt them, Karn chuckled a little. "Hopefully it doesn't, come to that. A punch from you will probably do way more then someone else trying to." he smiled brightly.

At Damian's question, Karn's much brighter energetic smile returned as he shook his head, "Nope! I'm good! Let's go by carriage, I'll go get it!" he chirped before looking to Melina and Mithera as Melina explained about needing to stop later and he nodded. "No worries, just let me know when you two need to stop." he chirped before picking up the bag he left on the tables earlier and bolted out of the guild.

Skipping a bit to the side of the guild, he spotted a decent sized carriage, resting untouched. As to where he got it, that was another story. Still, he grabbed the harness and stood in front of the mode of transportation, shifting the harness into the correct position's around himself before putting the bit into his mouth. Body soon transforming into a black stallion. Snorting, he happily shifted to make sure everything was in the correct position before trotting and pulling the carriage in front of the Guild.

"Come on let's go!" Karn neighed happily.

As Nero began to speak again, Master Jamie rose, and stared at him, arms crossed over her chest, his expression blank. With every word, Jamie wondered if her patience would snap, or not. The young mage was trying her patience, which wasn't particular his fault. It had, after all, been a tough three days.

So Jamie sighed and took a deep breath, narrowing their eyes, they met Nero's. "I never suspected you would attack me. And I'm more than sure that even if you did, I would be able to stop your attack before it left your lips"

He sighed softly, and said "We all have darkness in our hearts, Nero. We shine because we are a guild. Because we care." Jamie looked to the girl when she spoke, when she said three year. "Accepting kindness isn't weakness, it isn't anything but kindness. I do not like knowing people are suffering, and would give you the means to, if you do not wish to be apart of my guild, find your feet. Jamie paused for a moment, and then, taking a chance, he spoke softly and kindly to the girl. "We all have secrets, child. Sometimes its easier to just stay away from people, to not get close to them. And we don't know that we are hurting ourselves more."

A heavy sigh now. "But the past can't be changed, child. A wish won't help that. But I will stop Nero if anything bad happens, since you wish this wish"

(You can go to Collab now if you wish. Don't forget to add me).



Sasha gave a laugh, letting Lazarus hold her, "You just like to hold me" She said with amusement, only blushing slightly at the closeness. It was hard to be embarrassed or shy after running around practically half naked. She gave Lazarus a smile, and wrapping her arms around him.

Melina chuckled as Zero seemed to be showing a slightly kinder side, though it was just as... Harsh, she guessed would be the word. As Karn ran off she turned to examine the Dragon Slayer slowly, looking him up and down. Mithera stood up and brushed past her over to Zero, gently nudging his hand before giving him an apologetic look. She was somewhat sorry about neglecting to tell him about Melina, and wanted to make it up to him somehow, some other time. Melina could only chuckle softly, and provided no explanation to Mithera's actions.

When Karn showed up with a Carriage, Melina was surprised. How did a kid so scatterbrained and so trusting get a carriage? By the way he dressed he couldn't have a lot a money, and he had gotten it so fast too. She was completely and utterly surprised. Mithera could only give Melina a bemused look before walking over to Karn, nuzzling his side before looking to see if she could easily fit inside with everyone else inside as well, and ultimately elected to let everyone else on first, sitting next to the entrance.
