I am, I think.

Blood Act I~ Ghosts of the Past

Leith Calder

Leith adjusted his cloak so that his right arm wasn't visible before anyone answered and sighed when Althalus opened the door. "Well, yes. I'm hoping you can." Leith started pacing back in forth as he talked. "I probably should have mentioned it after the hunt, but there was a lot going on. My leg was broken, and there was the whole issue with..." He trailed off and stopped and looked at the door as if he could see through it, then started pacing again. "I had mentioned something similar to you before, but you brushed it off, and I didn't see any reason to pry. I know who- no, what sent those people. I was told moments before it happened."

Leith stopped pacing and looked Althalus straight in the eye before he spoke again, his voice quiet so it didn't carry. "I came to you because out of anyone here at the college besides probably Ovak, you know more about the Wild than anyone else here, and whatever it is, it seemed to have been after Lyn." Leith rubbed the back of his neck with his left hand and sighed. "I thought I'd let you know. I would like to know more about what we're dealing with, though, if you don't mind.'

Gotcha, I'll fix that up right away.

Blood Act I~ Ghosts of the Past

Leith Calder

Two weeks have passed since Lyn's Hunt, and Leith was feeling terrible. He had been so close to death so many times in past year than he felt appropriate, and the events of the hunt lingered with him. It caused him to wake up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat more than once. The night before had been no different, so as he usually did whenever sleep evaded him, he had set out for the library. To research a bit more on the Falling process he had ahead of him at some point in the future.

Stifling a yawn and with a slight limp, Leith left the library. Once he had been brought back to the College after the hunt, he had had his leg healed by Lidda since, as he was surprised to hear, the Naga had pretty much shattered his leg. Had he been in it's grasp any longer, his other leg might have done the same. The procedure had been quick and healed his leg fully, but he had a limp that he was told would go away in a few weeks time. With a sigh, Leith wandered the halls and let his mind wander.

This was the second time that he had encountered something known as the Wild. Both times, the ring that had affixed itself to his finger had spoke to him. He thought back at how the first time it talked to him it said that Althalus knew more about the Wild than he was letting on. Then, he had let it lie because it didn't seem that important, that it was a one off, but now that it happened again, it may be something a lot more relevant.

With that thought in mind, Leith decided he needed to talk with Althalus. With as a plan in mind, Leith set out to find Althalus. In a short amount of time, Leith was at the door Althalus' and Mar's den. He steeled himself and knocked on the door. The depression that Mar had been in since the hunt had been very disheartening, and from the few times he came by to check up on her, the depression was almost a part of the atmosphere and seemed to latch on to whoever was there. He waited at the door with a somber look on his face, a different look that the smile he tried to wear when he tried to talk to Mar.

Darius Jura

Darius ducked under a wild hook and sent an uppercut to his opponent's abdomen. The man dropped to his knees and held his side. That was about the fifth punch that Darius had landed in the exact same spot. His opponent waved off against any further possible attack and returned to nursing his side. Cheers broke out from around him and Darius left the pit. He received his money from the fight and made his way to the bar. Underhaven was a good place to fight and no one seemed to mind the fighting there as long as it was fair.

There was a commotion as plants started creeping up the body of the Necromancy teacher Uicle. Darius looked at the scene for a moment before continuing to one of the open seats, as he made his way towards the bar, someone bumped into him. It was some kid that got up and started making his exit once he saw the girl wrapping vines around the teacher. He looked Yarosmeran. "Watch where you are going, kid," he barked at the kid, before turning to the bar and taking a seat next to Uicle.

He watched as Tyrael told Uicle that he was leaving and got up started making his way out of Underhaven. Darius was surprised that Tyrael was leaving so early. He ordered a drink and passively listened to any further conversation between Uicle and Tyrael, curious as to what was said to get the Demonmancer to leave

It was frustrating to see the demon drowning himself with drink because he wasn't there when the hunting party was attacked, and if Uicle hadn't stepped in, Darius would have.

Leith would take the yellow ring from the selection

@jdh97 One quick thing about your Herbert post. XIII and Dayna had left Herbert's room before they started talking.

Torn Across the Rift

XIII chuckled bitterly when the ball of light asked if the first group that found him gave him his powers. "That would be something," he started before glancing at the sprite. "Sorry. No, I don't think those people gave me this ability. The place I came from have people who are born with abilities. Some have control over specific elements, others can move from one place to another in an instant. All of these abilities have drawbacks. The moment I get cold, I have no control over fire." XIII absentmindedly ran a hand over the burnt side of his head as he spoke.

"The people that found me believe that people like me are a danger to the world, and they want to get rid of us, one way or another. They tried to turn me into a weapon against others like me. They took my memories and tried to break me." XIII stopped talking as he recalled his time as a prisoner. He shook himself out of his thoughts and looked at the creature in front of him. "But that's enough of my sob story. I guess I should introduce myself, You can call me XIII. We should probably make our way back to the meeting, don't you think?"

Leith Calder Lyn's Hunt

Leith paused when the man noticed the venom and mistook it for water. As the trees got closer, Leith decided to just hurl the venom as if he was throwing it away at the man's leg. Leith turned his attention to Summer, who had just called out to him, and made a clenching motion with his hand, forcing the venom into whatever it had made contact with. His head was pounding and his muscles were cramping, but he managed a strained smile at Summer. "It's good to see you awake," he said briefly before turning his attention back to the mage and the trees.

He watched as E'nasha created a shield from trees that the mage didn't uproot. She made a suggestion of making the mage turn into a swarm so her plants could eat them. "That could work, I don't know if I managed to get him with the venom from the Naga, but a plan like that would be good just in case. Here." Leith held out Seraphim Sword and enlarged it to the size of a normal long-sword. "If you can make sure the seeds can't fall off the hilt, this could force him to swarm." Once that was done, Leith took aim and threw the sword at the man.

The sword would continue moving in the direction that it was thrown without losing any altitude or speed. It looked as if it would continue going until it hit something or was stopped. Luckily, Leith was able to stop it whenever as long as he could see it. The unfortunate part was that it was all he could do with the sword, and whenever he let go of the thing, it would start taking swipes at whoever was near it. Once it got close enough to the man, Leith stopped the sword. For a moment, the sword hovered in place. Then it was violently and clumsily taking swipes at the Herbamancer. It was around this time when Leith heard a roar coming from the direction of Ssarak and Meirin.

Rtron said to have the knight die, so I did. What exactly is the situation with the knight's brother? I know he's manipulating trees; who is being attacked by him?

@EliteCommander

Leith, E'nasha, and Summer.
