Ascension 3: A return to Chaos

Lucius opened the doors. Sunlight piercing his and Ami's backsides and the reflections dazzling over their steps. It was quiet now in the guest halls, servants and guards were seldom seen however. Something must have happened, Lucius felt. He turned his head left and right to see the library door narrowly closing behind someone entering in. He turned to Ami before stepping forward past the doorway to follow. "This is odd.." He said softly. He returned to face the door and came to it with a gentle stride, Ami kept close but behind him for safety. For there to be a threat during the congregation of the high bloods would be insane. But a possibility for a kingdom attempting to gain an upper hand in their trades by eliminating competition. He opened the door slowly. As he did so loud footsteps could be heard marching down the hall. Lucius quickly turned, freezing his arm from opening the library door entirely.

"Here!" The armored Vrondi guards came to the door the Tearian royal was attacked in. The guards kicked it open and found it empty. The Tearian royal with his moist mass shook with anger. His tentacle was bandaged and was steadily being healed by Solari the Sol servant healer in the castle. She sighed as he kept moving, making it hard for her to place her hands over the wound. He spat out a coin. "This is the room I was assaulted in! Where did my slaves go!?" He yelled, another coin being coughed up from his throat and rolling on the ground. A Vrondi guard, light silver armor and wood beneath its sleek design. He raised a finger to his helmet and light emitted from his finger. "The face of the man in your mind and your lost slaves. I've got it clearly in my mind now.." The guard spoke briefly. They then began to exit the room. "We will pass the description on and look among the guests. Also search all rooms!" He waved out his fellow guards as he left the room, the spread out and began knocking on doors and opening them immediately after.

Lucius removed his mind from their resonating thoughts. "So someone attacked a Tearian slave owner and took his slaves. A petty thing, I wonder why?" He asked out loud to himself and to Ami. He opened the door as he said this and entered the Library. He found those to be inside to be curious, mysterious and somewhat familiar. He narrowed his eyes on Dremmick and Czi. But found Mason and his bright wings to be a welcomed sight, a possible Aion he supposed. "Hello." He said softly. Turning for Ami to continue to follow him. He merely walked a few meters to the left opposite of the others and to a large book behind a glass and on a mantle. He touched the glass and slid it to the side. The book was stamped with a symbol of the sun. Fiery and bright its gold lettering reflected against the magical balls of light that lined the ceilings. The light from the windows dimming by the minute. "This the book of Vrondi's histo-

The Library door was opened up swiftly. Lucius turned. Two Vrondi guards emerged. One looked to Lucius and Ami and another to Dremmick, Czi, and Mason. Stay where you are my lords. We have an emergency to take care of. The voice of the guards rang through the minds of the Sol blooded duo. As for the others the guard began to draw his blade. Holding it halfway through the sheath. He looked to Dremmick. This one fits the description. "You there. You're coming with us." He placed his hand on Dremmick's arm and pulled. But before he could test Dremmick's resolve a man stepped into the open doorway. Raising his glasses he looked at the party in the library.

"Unhand that man!" The gloved hand of Lord Eros pointed to the guard and Dremmick. The guard froze turning to Lord Eros. "He is a culprit in a recent attack against a Tea- Lord Eros wagged his finger sucking his teeth. "He did what I asked, like a good member of the Alliance." The guard let go of Dremmicks arm. "This is a Tearian matter then. Have your courts deal with this and please keep the violence down. We expect this from the Fotians." The guards spoke before leaving, closing the Library door behind them.

"Ha good. I really dont like that blubbering creep. I suppose this alliance is actually a good idea if I can use you like this." Eros chuckled as he walked in. He looked to Czigani with a raised brow. "I see you have cleaned up well." He winked with a sly smirk.

Ascension 3: A return to Chaos

Vrondi Castle
Courtyard

---

Lucius walked with careful leisure steps. Not looking as if he had to but walking with firm grace. A trained skill, charming and noble. He felt Ami's weight shift on his arm as they walked down each marble white step. The courtyard was empty save for a few guards standing by the entrances to more private quarters and servants tending to the garden. Lucius dared to look Ami in the eyes. The fireworks coming into view as they strolled down the checkered path lined by three foot bushes with beautiful yellow flowers closing in for the night. "How much do you know of what transpired outside our safe walls last night?"

Ami felt disturbed by Lucius's nearness it being an alien in experince to her having never remained so close to a male. She could sense his heratbeat his every breath how much physical energy he used to walk down the stairs ; how much he held in reserve. Then he spoke helping her escape this new found insight into others.
"I am told very little and my sources of information more towards scholarly pursuits" She says before turning to regard the flowers lining the path.

"Well I envy you." They came to a bench that was before the maze. He brought her to sit down, gesturing with his free hand for her to do so. After she sat down on the engraved seat which read. 'To the great mother. How we cherish thy memory.' Lucius turned to the fireworks for a moment before looking down. "Some knowledge can hurt. Like the sight of seeing women, children all forced to do unspeakable acts in the most vile of conditions both mentally and physically. It was a nightmare. I had seen it from the lower villages outside the walls..." He returned his gaze to her. This time eyes more tender from revisiting his memories.

Ami turns to Lucius unmasking her aura
"I am so tired of people believing I need protection from bad news and its associates. I am a Historian, if there is any pursuit greater in the study of events negative and positive I at a loss to name them.
I am fully grown and able to make my own decisions, if I lack talent there it is the fault of my teachers"

"If you're so willing to jump into the dark then you might be what we need." He took a seat next to her. Looking at the fireworks and the sunset over the horizon. Both right next to each other. Despite this he did not smile, but seemed to be a bit more lifted in spirits. "If I were able to convince the lords of your importance in regrowth then I may very well be able to get you your chance to come and go as you please."

Ami looked at Lucius and sighed. "It is my hope to help my people, to prove I am more than a bird in a cage. To do that I need to test myself and that is impossible in this place."
She said without going into details because she knew her exposure to things outside of of the palace were sorely lacking so kept her council.

"Perhaps an opportunity is right around the corner. There is an alliance forming to combat this new threat. A god of death, our foe claims to be. A hideous being." He sighed deeply. "There is a group who may be able to, under the right supervision, accompany you on your mission."

Something about the mention of the God of death makes Ami briefly excited as she remembers an old quote “Life feeds Death, Death feeds Life” Connected as she is to the Life she has strangely never feared Death because they to her are night and day each having their place in the cycle of Gaia.
She smiles up at Lucius her eyes gently searching his and says “I would like to think of myself as more than the Palace Healer”

Lucius chuckled. "We have servants perfectly capable of healing. You will be healing the world.." His ears picked up the sound of a royal screaming in the halls. He turned his head. It was a feint sound, only through the fireworks was he able to make it out. He supposed it was from the guest halls near the Tearian wing. He observed the path leading to that location and then turned to Ami. "I think I heard something over there.. Will you accompany me?"

Ami looked at where Lucius’s attention was suddenly focused and when he mentioned he’d heard something and asked her to attend she knew it must be serious.
“Of Course if you believe my services are needed”

@KoL

I have an idea for a character that's a member of both light and dark because she'd have Disassociative Identity Disorder (DiD)

@Noxx

Uhm..
My character is under the theme of being both light and dark...

I'll post soon as I figure out how to go about Hikari getting her ass up to go to school. >_>

Illia smiled at Sophia with a puzzled expression. Who was this now? She wondered. Doing as best she could to observe Sophia's aura. Chaotic. But refined. An Ancient. She thought. Pondering on who Sophia might be. "I only see what the King of Light wishes me to. I am his eyes." She spoke softly, turning to Vrondi who had his back turned to the group.

Magnixx turned to the others before speaking. "If it was sealed how was its body then turned into the armor that was taken from you?" Vrondi turned to face them with a levitating slow turn. His arms behind his back in a dignified manner. "I was handed the armor for my creation of this kingdom. As so were all of the other first Kings and Queens of your kingdoms. It was forged by a Divine and Chaotic being, one of the first born of our kind. A God Smith, he was proclaimed to be."

The group seemed perplexed. Vrondi gave them pause before continuing. "There may be a way to retrieve his old hammer... Getting such an artifact may possible with the allied forces. The group of unified warriors we have brought together."

As the sun went down some guests found the warm falling light to be romantic. Enough to cue others it was time to indulge. The guest rooms were many and massive. They were divided by wings and the Tearian guest rooms were combined with the newcomers. Although the accommodations were still separated enough for the majority of the Tearian royals to not even see the guests on the lower floors. One particular royal used the empty rooms. Entering into the halls with his long tendril like arms wrapping over the shoulders of three young servants. Their clothes were new and finely stitched. Their hair was neat and perfectly trimmed. But they remained stiff at the Lassa's eager smile as they walked down the halls. He sat on a floating orb of water, his feet also tendrils. He came to an empty room not too far from the guests and went inside, locking the doors.

The sound of a bit of whining could be heard through the walls. Followed by yells from the man and his tendrils whipping across one of the young servants face as she fell. "You land dwellers lack proper respect!" He shouted. "Now help me onto the bed." His obese form was that of a Lassa, meant for water and of a more feral blood. Yet he wore jewels and royal attire, demanding his respect. He slumped onto the bed with help from all three of the servants. All were of foreign blood to Tearia, and possibly mixed in heritage. They were varied in color as to this royals delight. "Now." He salivated. "Take those expensive dresses off. I just bought you now I need to inspect you.." He chuckled with a raspy throat.

Ascension 3: A return to Chaos

@RumikoOhara

I like it. Accepted.

Ascension 3: A return to Chaos

Clairvoyance what does that mean? Can she find anything within that radius?

Limit Scrying to a certain radius for new targets.

Make her electrical charge able to be done in variables because of a limit. So if she shocks someone all out she won't be able to for a while.

Charm spells need to be cast. Please detail how she casts this spell.

In her backstory you wrote "Service of the Lassa" please change it to "Service of the Tearians"

Her Experience write how she went about learning some of the more usable skills she has developed. Also tell about some of her levels of knowledge of living in the seas.
@RumikoOhara

@RumikoOhara

I thought you weren't done. The Scrying still has the rolls.

Alright. Let me know when it's finished.

Ascension 3: A return to Chaos

Lucius looked down at her with solemn eyes. He had come to terms with her position and his own and wanted to speak with her more intimately so she could know him. Yet I still want to hear whats in your mind. His voice, young and fresh, was entirely of a dignified male. His mind resonated with hers this way. A smooth tranquil sound that would come over just as sound, yet directly to the mind.

He observed the garden. Her garden. The creatures inside saw her as everything. No doubt she was to them, so he kept his own plant manipulation at bay. Not to fool such sheltered creatures into questioning their beautiful goddess. Despite his talents is was still no doubt Ami had the blood for far greater. His golden armor and jeweled ornaments reflecting the bright green on its surface. His eyes could see the auras of the vegetation. All steeped in her influence. It was wise to give her such a place of her own. Their King forever remained a step ahead.

"The light grows dim outside your influence. It is clear what your true purpose is, simply look around at what you've made here." He practically motioned to observe around the room. "Maintaining life. We need you now more than ever. Not as what your mother's heritage has marked you with. But for saving us." An outright declaration he made it seem. Bringing his fist to his chest and lowering his head into a slight bow whilst looking down. He then turned to walk to a closed door covered in the gardens over growth. He placed a hand on it and the plants around its hinges loosened by rapidly growing and receding out of its crevices. "The casualties grow out there for our brothers and sisters on the front lines. To use your gift simply to make more royals too afraid to fight would be an impertinent decision."

"Will you accompany me?" He asked after opening the door to the courtyard, massive and majestic. The Suns fiery light shining over the horizon.

“This place needs to be burned to the ground for starters.”

Made the young woman even more anxious. Though she knew she was kidding she couldn't help but to think that it was extreme. A lesson learned of the Fotian tongue. She felt it was their custom to mention fire and left it alone. She did manage to express a smile as she opened the door to leave. As she opened it she heard others walking within the guest halls. She turned to Czigani one last time. "Please do enjoy your stay." She couldn't help but want to scurry away before being asked to do any other tasks. She smiled as she walked past the new guests. Quickly walking to the healing chambers where she spent most of her time.

The fireworks outside the balconies continued to pop. But this time more dazzling displays sparked about in the sky. Each color representing a kingdom. A show of Fotia's approval of the alliance. The people below, lesser royals not invited within the castle halls or those who simply wished to mingle with the citizens of Vrondi were all rejoicing. The news of the alliance reaching them and a note being pressed underneath Czigani's door. A folded news letter for royals that gave the straight skinny on the current news. It read.

An alliance was being formed and a fresh team to represent this unified force. If you are able to spare any slaves, warriors or knights under your command. Or if you find yourself willing to join the cause please inform Vrondi. Later acceptance routes through all Kingdoms will be established shortly after.

Vrondi was pleased with the display from Allard and Blight. It was not often he was able to witness such display. He spoke to the crowd. "This time more than ever it was imperative we recruit strong warriors." He looked down sadly. The blood shed he witnessed last night was a reminder of how important it was to be a warrior yourself. With his soul boiling within him he let the royals who were watching give their praise. Mostly the Fotians for their love of battle but the others, Gaia, Vrondi and Tearia, joined in on some of the brief applause. "Now. Sir Blight will accompany you to the guest rooms where the others who will be joining your ranks will be. I hope you all get well acquainted." Vrondi waved his hand for the congregated mass of people to separate and form a path for them to exit through. He then summoned a few royals of his kind to have their ear.

"I've learned a lot about each of them from their souls mind. Assemble these items and a chest to present to each of them. Have it ready as soon as possible." Vrondi gave his royals the message and they in turn gave their servants the message. Soon the armory vault was opened far below and items were picked through and placed in massive wooden chests. These chests were then carried one by one once filled up the castle using sturdy vines that pulled them. Soon they would reach their destination.
