The Earth humanity had known was long gone a few thousand years ago, humanity's greed and supernatural breeding gave way to one of the most dangerous nuclear wars that the earth had ever seen. Counties and half of the plate were completely obliterated, barely any life could be sustained on the planet. All those wealthy enough would be allowed to live in the highest city,Tavki .

Tavki was the biggest city that floated above the planet, water and pleasure and all resources often gathered there. You had the most content and easy life, no worries no pain no fighting nothing, pure peace. This place saw no wars, no anger or even emotions of discomfort. But those that wished to leave were free to, the only catch? You CAN NEVER COME BACK. the security system of the city was so tight that man people that learned the horrors of leaving wanted back in and even one goddess Athena tried to go back only to be destroyed by the security system of the city a gruesome reminder of you truly never could come back no matter who you were or what you where.

The Next City a little more for hard-working people and those that want to feel like a purpose in life was the city of Borta, Borta was a large city that seemed to hover a little closer to the ground but still far enough people and creatures never saw the earth below them and how much of it was truly unable to be inhabited anymore. Borta was a fair city if you worked and worked hard you could make a living, feed your family and have a job. But even they had strict guidelines if you left, you too could never return to the city. It was a form that both cities had of population control.

The ONLY place left on earth that was even remotely left that could be housed to have anything live was the Poka Santuary town, The place where all the scum of each city where banished to. This place had thieves, murderers, necromancers anything that cities didn't want was dumped here. While you might think that's horrible it could be but only if you don't know where to look. Plenty of these people you should never trust, but there was a code amongst thieves and murderers, that those that seek fortune can't be harmed, Lucky for treasure hunters but bad as well as they still could be robbed of their findings.



The Tavern Located in the northern part of the town was the place where you could keep up on tabs and news on the world around them. From raiders to murders in the outlands to places of danger and stories of seasoned veterans that have seen first hand how bad the earth had become. The place was the only place where peace was maintained amongst the town the bartender was a man named Frank Wilder, he was a harsh man and even harsher if you caused his place any trouble.

The Danger of being here was great but because of Frank and his deeds, the tavern stayed very safe for most outsiders. The tavern was busy as always, people yelling and shouting, even someone was already drunk on the floor. There was two that walked into the tavern and the entire place went dead silent, The tall man wore dark clothing a blade strapped to his back, a hat that covered his face and a woman beside him her white dress elegent and looked like it could be set on fire at any moment.

"AH Richard! Rose Welcome back" Frank Wilder yelled happily as a few grumbles could be heard from some men as Ricard the tall man merely nodded his head walking past everyone as Rose walked beside him elegantly. She could have sworn was a noble but she was far beyond a noble could ever be.

"What would you guys like?"

"I require the back room for today Frank Rose and I have things to speak about in the Mountains of Eras," he said lowly as Rose nodded and grinned.

"Yes, we might have a clue where the Casket of Macquael is located" she beamed happily as Richard glared at her to hush down and be quiet as they didn't need other prying eyes or ears to hear them. Frank nodded and gave them the key and allowed them to pass through.

Richard stalked down the long dark stairs to the lower back room that was large, dark, and damp, often very cold in the summer and very hot in the winter since everyone wanted to be down there. it was just about to become winter which on earth lasted 180 days and could become brutal.

"Oh Richard looks like we have new ones" Rose spoke as Richard raised an eyebrow and saw that indeed they were not alone, two others sat there and he could smell them already, they were brand new they had not acquired the smell of those that lived down here for even a few days or months really. Richard frowned and walked past them and sat down at a different table and looking back facepalmed as Rose was going right up to the strangers.

Rose looked at the two strangers her eyes hidden by sunglasses "Oh you two new here? I'm Rose and Thats Richard!" she beamed happily the aura around her was burning hot. She could see this was not making the man with the woman very comfortable and stopped her aura from graduating heat.

"Sorry I normally don't have those that are bothered by it" she giggled as Richard stalked over "Rose leave the nice people alone, I am sure they don't want to have your giggles haunting in their minds forever," he said sternly as Rose pouted.

"Your too serious all the time Richard treasure hunting can wait for a moment," she said as she blinked and as Richard frowned not pleased with her "anyone ever tells you to keep your mouth shut sometimes Rose?" he growled lowly as rose looked downs lightly knowing she messed up.

Treasure hunters were prized because they knew where all available things lost to earth could be located and seasoned ones were so prized that the upper cities even hired spies or assassins to find them and take treasures that they find. Treasure hunting was too dangerous so many quit and stopped, except these two. They managed to do it for over 400 years of their lives. Those that hunted for treasure had to be so careful because many died because the cities knew.

Two figures walked into town, no one coming near them as they walked down the streets. The male of the pair was Bane Clawson. He was a werewolf of the Viking blood. His hair blond almost silver hair cut short as he kept his hand on a huge axe on his hip. His other hand was around the shoulders of the female next to him.

This was Lady Margaret Midnight. She was a shadow elemental who as of now was on the run. Her silver eyes looked at Bane and said “I’m sorry for all of this, Sir Bane…you didn’t deserve this turning point”

Bane smirked and his gold eyes flashed. “Trust me, I’ve been in enough battles to know this was worth it. Your safer down here. And we find the item and keep it out of the hands of the others…it will be all worth it to save thousands of lives”

The pair walked into the bar and asked the bartender somewhere they could sit privately. They were lead to the lower back room where Bane sat Lady Mignight at a table and said “now…we need to figure out our next steps…” then they heard the door open and two more walked in.

Banes reflex moved his hand to his axe but Maggie moved her hand and shook her head. They looked at Rose a little taken a back then Bane said “Sir Bane Clawson at your service my lady. This is lady…I mean Ms. Midnight.” Maggie nodded and smiled softly. “Hello there”

Rose looked at them and blinked her eyes under her sunglasses, she could smell they were new they haven't made that smell that most common ones around here had gotten. Rose tilted her head and smiled, "Pleasure to meet you!"

"Rose" Richard mutters as Rose gave him a frown and shook her head "Well I hope you find a good place to stay the town is a little hard to stay if you are new. If you need any safe spot to stay you can stay with us we live a little closer to the outskirts away from the main part of town which can be shady if you are not careful" muses as Richard facepalmed and groaned slightly.

"Rose for the love of anything that lives on this dreadful planet what have I told you about inviting strangers into our home?"

"That it was a nice thing to do so shut up and let us not be rude to new people around here it took you a few years to get your toes wet in this town 495 years ago" she grinned as Richard folded his arms "My age has nothing to do with it, I merely survived for a lot of those years the bandits where not here that long ago" he said as Rose smirked.

"So its settled, Midnight and Clawson can stay with us till they get settled" she grinned bright as Richard sighed knowing better then to argue with her.

"Might I at least ask where you guys are headed or trying to head we can offer advice we have been to a lot of places on earth....well whats left on it. As my friend so stupidly did mutter we are treasure hunters so we know our places around here and spots as well" he said watching them careful.

Bane stared at the woman, trying to figure out if she was just crazy or it was a set up. Maggie on the other hand smiled and said “it would be nice to be somewhere you wouldn’t have to watch all night Bane…you’ve hardly slept since we left”

Bane sighed and looked up to answer the question. “We are looking for something. We don’t have any details on it as of yet…we came here mostly to handle a few troubles” Maggie nodded, looking worn out herself. It was clear now the pair were on the run.

Rose looked at bane and frowned slightly and shook her head amused, silly werewolf truly they were. She clapped her hands together and smiled "Well clearly those on the run need to blend in more with the crowd and your clothing" looking them up and down "Is less fitting in" she grinned as Richard sighed gently and grabbed Rose and glared at her.

"Just go home we will meet up with you there" he growled lowly at her as she glared her sunglasses sizzling slightly from the heat.

"Rose" he warned as she grumbled "You owe me!" she said annoyed and smirked gently and waved to the two "I'll find clothes for you two at the house to help you blend in a little more" she promised and was gone up the stairs. Richard sighed gently and shook his head.

"Always got to be a little extra she does, I do apologize for her antics she doesn't really have a filter and is quite childish at times as well. But I guess that just runs in her cycle as well" He said and sat down and looked at them.

"Well, you come to the right duo unfortunately despite our very different natures Rose and I keep our guests safe till they are ready to be on their own. If you like, we have many maps and stuff at the house you can look at, places we have been or charted out. we are actually heading to the MOuntain of Eras it's said that the Casket of Macquel resides in there" He said his voice was slightly bitter but not because he was angry but that's just how he talked he and Rose often alone and didn't have to watch out for other people. But sometimes Rose attaches herself to others and that when bad things often happened.

"I am Richard Eviak Dapmire, That is Rose Valin she's something else alright but no one really knows what she is" He muses gently to the other and leaned back "So where are you guys running from anyway? You both look exshauted anyway"

Bane rubbed his face, starting to get a headache from all the fast talking. Maggie looked at the other man and said “it is very kind of you to offer but we hate to impose. And…well, I’m running for a number of reasons. But we are here looking for a rare and dangerous item.”

She reached into her bag and pulled out a old piece of paper torn from a book. She slid it to him and said “this is what we are looking for.” On the page was a drawing of a staff of some sort, with gems running up and down the sides. Bane kept quiet, letting the former noble take the lead on this.

The male tilted his head and frowned at the idea of anyone getting a dangerous item and shook his head "You are foolish to look for a dangerous item and even more foolish thinking that the backlash from using said item would;t be just as bad. There are reasons people stopped looking for treasure, sure we do but we never take them or use the ones we have taken. There are always back side effects to everything given or taken. There are reasons why the world swallows up the dangerous things, Humanity and supernatural never be trusted again with knowledge" He sighed tiredly, another band looking for dangerous items, another lesson to be learned for those that never understand it.

"Treasure is never found here, you go out and look for it, it be a waste of time and effort if its always where others stay" he muses gently and stood up slowly "That looks like something we came across only once but thelocation always changes every few days. It was called the Delmont Staff, what it does we do not know, we never taken it or used it" he said slowly thinking

Bane shook his head and said “we don’t want to use it. We have to keep others from finding it. We have to find it and hide it more. Or something like this…” Maggie rubbed her head and said “we aren’t wanting to use it. Is there a way to find it…”

Bane pulled the paper back and said “we don’t want to cause any trouble for you. You don’t have to get involved” Maggie sighed and rubbed her face. They both looked stressed and tired

"It moves every three or so days, it has a mind of its own, Tracking it would be hard because it can go anywhere it usually though does follow a pattern probably but that would be something we might ask Rose about since she has been doing this stuff for let's say much longer then life has been on most of the planet," The dapmire said and looked at them.

"Maybe first what you two need is rest, come on I'll let you stay at our house, safest house on the town can sleep easy there," the vampire said nodding his head slowly as he looked at them smelling their tiredness and such. "Get washed up and warm should do you good, the weather is going to be nasty for the night" he nodded his head as the sky was crystal clear, but he could sense the change of weather long before it happened.

Bane sighed and slowly stood up, flinching a little. “We couldn’t really. We know she was just being nice but we don’t want to cause you any more…” he stopped and held his side.

Maggie looked over and said “Bane? Are you alright?” Bane nodded softly and muttered “I’m good…” but now the scent of blood was hitting the air.
