Also, just to give some of you a heads up. The next chapter (after the time skip) will be a little different.

It will focus on bloodlines and show the side of alchemy outside of amro perspective.

Now there are various bloodlines that operate around the world. These are families who have practiced alchemy through several generations. These families are also responsible for keeping the rogues in line, which is why amro let's them live.

Now our characters are sent to act as mediators as a feud has begun among the bloodlines and it is impertive that a bloodline war be avoided at all costs. So our characters will be sent to the annual summit where all the patriarchs of the bloodlines meet. We have to make sure everything goes smoothly.

Now each member can create a bloodline of their own, as there are several bloodlines. In doing so each member can approach the feud in their own way and direct the plot towards compliance or war.

I will explain more as we go ahead.

The next chapter should be very interesting in my opinion. It's not so much focused on fighting as it is on tact and guile. Also it will be the first chapter where the end result will be entirely determined by what actions you make your patriarch and the bloodline takes.

*Looks at Maeve* Er...

ER. This is Maeve we're talking about, right? THE ONE WHO HAS NO TACT OR GUILE. THE ONE WHO YOU'RE SENDING TO A DIPLOMATIC, TACT NEEDED, TO AVOID WAR, SUMMIT.

*SHAKES XODUS*

What are you thinking!?

Well I was talking from the point of view of the patriarch :p while our characters will serve as mediators and body guards the patriarchs will be the ones either solving or creating the mess our guys will have to clean xD

And yea.... <.< >.>... Maeve.... she will definetly need to be locked in a cellar, possibly in tartrus.

I think I'll delay my re-entry until after the timeskip, if that's okay?

@xodus I thought AMRO took all the alchemists. Now you're saying that they don't, and in fact they have good relations with outside alchemists? I am so lost.

I never said amro takes all the alchemists. That is impossible and not neccessary. A.M.R.O only takes the talented, it just needs an army to maintain order.

Alchemy management and Restraint organization.

It means they maintain order in the world of alchemy, that means they oversee alchemy as well as the rogues.

To put it simply you can use alchemy and not be in A.M.R.O, however you have to live under the constant scrutiny of A.M.R.O. If you don't break the rules, you will be okay. If you do A.M.R.O will come.

There are certain exceptions.

Now when A.M.R.O was still in its infancy merely a century old or so, it knew it would be very tough to bring order and control over the world of alchemy. Hence it took assistance from certain families. These families served to maintain order in those areas where A.M.R.O couldn't, however they too were under the scrutiny of A.M.R.O. It was a give and take relationship.

The families would be able to get more freedom and A.M.R.O would get more intel from them and create more order.

As time passed, over the centuries prominent bloodlines were formed, they are known as the 'newbloods'. Basically families that have been practicing alchemy for over 400 years.

These newbloods maintain order at a lower level. Such making sure rogues in their areas are behaving, no one is being reckless etc. For this A.M.R.O tends to turn a blind eye to some of their illegal activities.

However there is also a darker past as to the creation of the relationship between the newbloods and A.M.R.O.

Ze crickets they chirp o.o

RL. IT CLAWS AT ME.

I'll get it up tomorrowish.

Looks like you could use RLBGONE!

Yes now you could be rid of all those pesky problems all for the meagre price of your soul!

I've been in the process of transitioning between two jobs (working both of them until Friday) and between both jobs I haven't been home for over two hours in a row awake for the last two weeks. Tomorrow will be my first time I have a bit of a break from both so I'll work on getting a post up then.

Ouch x.x

See you need that RLBGONE more than anyone. Gif meh yo soulz!!!

But yes, don't be too stressed. When ever you are comfortable, you can get started on that post ^.^

That feel when Xodus pesters you to post. *amused*

Technically I haven't pestered anyone to post. When the pestering starts, you will know. :p

I merely enjoy the OOC page staying alive.

This is interesting, Shy.

Too long has ye slumbered,

Thy sin be sloth

Hence the heavens they rumbled

To free us from rot

Now rise from the ashes

And claim what was lost

Alright ladies and gents it has been two weeks since the last post.

We need to pick up the speed.

Now that I got my question answered all I have left to finish is Keith's part. I'll try and get most of it done tonight but will finish the rest during the weekend.

Awesome =D

I can't wait ^.^

Also as far as the second chapter goes, I have been contemplating two titles but can't pick the best one.

Chrono Asylum: The Tainted Crest

Chrono Asylum: A Soul's Currency

Which one do you guys think is the best?

Alright ladies and gents it has been two weeks since the last post.

We need to pick up the speed.
