Dremmick closed the book and set it down on the table. "Alright then, guess there is no point in reading that further. Why won't she speak to you about it? You would think it would be important enough to talk about."

@Jollan
"I think she doesn't want me to get involved, trying to protect me and all that stuff. All I know it happened while she was on a job shortly after I became S-Class." Ris said, closing her eyes. "I just wish she'd tell me what happened. I want to help her so much."

Dremmick shook his head, "Then how does she have you trying to research something that she won't tell you about?" He then turned toward Cilia and beckoned her over. "Hey Cilia, could you come here for a moment?"

Terra, having not found any good quests on the board anywhere close to town, gave up and sat down at the table with the others. Ander on the other hand, had his eyes locked on a particular quest that was posted with a picture of a red raven on it. He looked over to Dremmick and saw that he was in deep conversation with the others and quickly took it down, shoving it in a pocket. He looked over to Morgan who was looking for quests with him. "Don't mention this to anyone," he whispered, "especially Dremmick." He would have to leave tonight to check on it, but for now, he just sat himself at the table with everyone else.

@Jollan
Cilia turned and let out an angry huff before walking back over to the table she had walked away from a few moments before. "What?" She snapped crossing her arms.

Ris had started to reply to Dremmick but shut up when she saw Cilia heading towards the table. When the purple haired girl snapped at them Ris shrunk back slightly, remembering the few times Cilia's anger had been directed at her.

Dremmick was waiting on Ris's answer still, but noticed she stopped when Cilia started walking up. He waved it away, and murmured that he would ask her later. Which would probably be best. Blatantly ignoring Cilia's little attitude, Dremmick started with his arms spread out. "Not sure yet, you tell me." He said, unphased by her odd snappy manner. He then started ticking his points on his fingers, "You're snippy, Ris is passing out in a book, you obviously need help with a certain," he paused and crossed his arms after getting up, "curse problem." He shrugged his shoulders, "So really, I guess I should ask you, 'what?" he finished with eyebrows raised.

@Jollan
"It's for me to deal with." Cilia snapped, glaring at Dremmick. She wouldn't tell them, she couldn't let this affect her guildmates. This was a secret she would take to her grave if she had to.

Dremmick shook his head at her response, "Nope, that wont settle it. Because to me, and probably a few others here, I am already involved. You would have to somehow convince me otherwise."

@Jollan
"I won't tell you! I don't want anyone getting involved with this. It's something I have to deal with on my own!" Cilia said, hitting the table. After that she let out an angry breath then turning and storming out of the guildhall. If anyone went after her they wouldn't be able to find her as she disappeared into the crowded street in front of the guildhall.

"Cilia...." Ris mumbled quietly, watching her sister leave. She was hugging her elbows, looking on the brink of tears.

@Jollan@booksmusicanime

Observing Ander hastily remove and stash away a particular quest from the board, Morgan giggled whenever he pleaded for her to keep quiet of his findings. "Frankly, I haven't a clue as to what you're talking about." She replied, showing her understanding of the situation. However, this didn't mean that she was just going to drop it so easily. Sure, she wouldn't tell Dremmick, but who's to say that'd prevent her from doing some research of her own? The red raven in particular is what interested her about it.
With that aside, Morgan overhears the heated exchange of words between Dremmick and Cilia, only to see her storm out of the guild. Man, did she feel bad for her. The young tactician really wished to figure out what was causing her friend so much stress. Morgan regroups with the others at the table, sitting herself down on top of the table. "It's times like these where I wish my brother were here. I feel that he'd be able to get Cilia to open up. Is his long training period causing her this much distress? Someone mind filling me in?" She questions the others, wanting to get the full picture for the time being before she decided on what move to make.

Dremmick slightly chuckled when Cilia left. "I think it has something to do with her cursed magic," he told Morgan. "But what I am interested in is what she plans on doing now that she has left." He saw Ris and comforted her. "Don't sweat it. She needs to learn that if you are part of a guild, you share the burden."

He walked to the door and jerked a thumb at it, "let's see where she ran off too shall we?"

@Jollan@ShadowVentus
Ris nodded slightly and stood up. "Finding her may be our best bet in learning what's going on...." Ris said quietly.

Cilia had entered the woods, breathing heavily. She had run all the way from the guildhall to the edge of the town. If she could get a decent head start then it hopefully make it harder for anyone to find her. She had to deal with this quest on her own since it directly affected her.

((I'm going to put the details of the quest below in a hider. If you want to learn it as this arc goes on then don't read it but I'm putting it below if you do want to know, but I need to write it down so I remember.))

Paige Dragneel was just was about to bombard the guild hall with her presence when a figure whipped past her in a blurr. She glimpsed back only to catch the back of an agitated girl storming off to who knows where. The guild hall had become relatively silent as she stepped inside.

“Well,” She cleared her throat. “I’m not quite sure what that was all about, but please tell me you didn’t fight too much while I was away?” She grinned and took in the sweet smell of bankrupt and sweaty wizards that had come to be her home.

“It’s good to be back!"

@booksmusicanime@Jollan@BlueAjah

Morgan's eyes lit up not only at hearing of the chance to help Cilia out, but also due to Paige's appearance, delighted a good friend has returned to join in on the fun. Without much time to react, Morgan swiftly moves from her seat and hugs Paige. "Good to have you back! Your timing couldn't be more perfect. We're about to go chase down Cilia. Care to tag along?" She inquires.

Shade had entered the guild with Frosch behind him. Another day of hard training. Perhaps he would learn to control his magic much easier. Once inside, he walked over towards his guild mate

@ShadowVentus
"Can I join aswell?" Crystal asked, walking over towards the group.

//I got no idea what to do with Ris right now.\\

Paige squeezed Morgan tightly as the two hugged, once again wishing she hadn't been gone for so long. Life just wasn't the same without the guild. Before Paige had time to even give her rounds of hellos, familiar and foreign faces began to crowd around the area. Wizards storming off? Guild mates huddling together? It only lead to one possible thing.
"Good to have you back! Your timing couldn't be more perfect. We're about to go chase down Cilia. Care to tag along?" Morgan asked. Paige grinned wickedly and whistled in excitement.
"Do I? It's about time we do some fun around here! A wizard's week isn't complete without adventure!" She cheered.

@booksmusicanime@BlueAjah@Jollan@AcetheKidd

"Man, talk about a raid party! Well, I feel like I can speak for everyone by saying that Cilia is family. We'll help out no matter what the cost! Let's hurry up and get moving already!" With that being said loud enough for everyone present at the guild hall to hear, Morgan advances outdoors, quickly attempting to trace her. She not only wanted to help Cilia, but also wanted to be able to share good news with her family when they returned home from their extensive training session.

@ShadowVentus
Crystal follows after Morgan.
//Crystal's gonna need a bit of reworking....\\

Shade was confused at what they where doing. "My I ask what it is that where doing? "

Gao ran up to Ris and jumped in her arms like a child."HAI!" he smiled. Eli sighed and ran behind him."Gao!your to big to be doing stuff like that!"

@AcetheKidd
Ris stumbled back slightly, not expecting Gao's hug. She returned the hug, all thoughts of her sister disappearing for the moment. "Hey Gao." Ris chuckled, giving a small smile. Her golden eyes flickered to Eli and they light up with happiness. She would've ran go hug Eli but she was still trapped in Gao's hug.
