Library of Valennia

A straight-forward answer at the Academy where she graduated not too long ago? Or more research on the Multi-Realm theory and its connection with the mysterious corruption of monsters and her Dragon's Breath. She closed her eyes, deep in thought before snapping them open with a determined smile.

"I'd like to borrow one book you would recommend on the Multi-Realm theory and whatever is the latest journal entry and document update that's been submitted to the public thus far." She didn't have to worry about getting past records of the topic itself as her family has had connections with the scholars that allowed them to study up and research further on what the other mages were on about. Like tradition, she is to follow in her footsteps and find out what the Dragon's Breath really is.

Waiting at the desk to withdraw her books and exiting the library, she turned her head to the direction of the Academy... maybe one of her old teachers can help her with this curious predicament? An old classmate? Perhaps even the head master? Lots of information and opinions to gather from them, maybe she could find a connection between them and it was right under her nose the whole time! Nah, she's probably overthinking things... looking out for number one way too intensely could lead to downfall.

One step... two steps... and then she started skipping freely toward the Academy's direction in sight, the books swaying back and forth in her awfully large satchel and a document in hand for her to read on. She can't wait for her own discovery to be made public and further increase the standing of the Stanier nobility.

Just one slice, she thought. One slice, one clean cut to his neck and it would all be over. As simple as her single mind was, she wasn't quite expecting any mishaps on her end, believing that Demi-Humans are much more skilled than humans overall, much more an old man, she completely underestimates him by thinking a simple decapitation could just end it all.

Her fingers curled down on the blade. Prepped for the early death blow, she tried to aim for his neck-

"Look here, you halfwit foreigner."

Eyes blinking, form stopping. She retracts her blade within the sheath and watched the event unfold before her eyes. "You hired me because you needed a merchant. I'm more than happy to make an extra, quick buck..." She turned her head slowly towards him. "...what I'm not happy about, is needless complications. So shut up and let the one you hired to do talking for you actually do it or I'll shave this beard of yours."

Wasn't she the slave and he, the cruel master? Why is she taking charge? Of all things... why the beard? Nevertheless she got a chuckle from this, the sight of a Demi just pulling a human's facial hair was enough to make her giggle adorably.

"...while that was a good laugh... what's really going on here? You're not stalling me, are you?" Favor restored? A little bit, she's now just a tiny bit worried that the three are in cahoots despite her small outburst of joy. Especially since her eyes trail down Mie's.

"I apologize for my fool of a benefactors words. Make no mistake, pretty kitten, I am just a humble merchant he hired to do the talking for him...as well, do the less than desirable parts of this whole thing, heh. But that's okay, my hands haven't been clean in a long time."

"So it's illegal..." Elque was intrigued, seeing as Mie claimed that it was a human's company they're technically robbing it sat pretty well with her, tail wagging to and fro showing hints of excitement, although they probably don't know her, she doesn't know them. It'd be bad if Gris found out that his pet kitten went off to rob some guy. "What's the prize anyway?"

First, taking an Archer spot but if someone wants it more than me, I'll take whoever's left.

Human... disgusting human...

That thought had ran in her head the moment Mirt began speaking. Elque glared, her ears perking straight up while a wolfish growl came from her lips, he talks of demanding papers of the Noble House she serves yet he just stole the very thing she was looking for. This wouldn't be the first time humans like him played tricks on her no... she wasn't going to let that happen again, the grip on her blade returned to its usual hold, one that's ready to draw her blade.

You're all the same, entitled fleshbags who think they're better than us... we'll see who's better when I slice off your head and taking it with me as a trophy.

Mirt calling Mie an "underling" simply didn't help his case, genuinely believing that Mie was enslaved by this old bastard and was ready to liberate her from him and his quiet female compatriot.

If Mie has a plan to cool things down, now would be the time.

Fate/True False War

Again, when something is left just inform me :), I don't mind which I get, or even if I just play some less important side characters, I just enjoy the universe of fate.

Important question though: Gender bending of historical figures allowed?

@Count Cuddles

Didn't stop the guys at TYPE-MOON

No seriously. It didn't stop them. =w=

Fate/True False War

I'll take whatever isn't taken after everyone else picked.

Or if they have the same mentality as me, I can take Archer.

Elque had thought them to be only human brigands but to think a lone Demi just approached from behind the pair surprised her. Mie wasn't in chains at all, she wasn't bruised, she didn't look like a slave to them and she seemed more into the plan than both of her comrades. Loosening her grip, she turned to look at the ragtag trio, her ears flicking and tail lightly swaying from left to right at the mention of "nasty humans".

Yes.

She liked the idea of punishing them but remembered her goal in coming here. She was to bring the cart around back... specifically the one they "borrowed" and to bring back Chiy-

"The only little girl here is me, though, heh...but perhaps you would be interested in helping us? I could compensate you for your troubles, if the satisfaction of bringing justice isn't enough."

"Huh?" Was all the Wolf-Cat would say, not only was Chiyo missing, she wasn't anywhere near the cart to begin with. The problem with her duty just doubled until she remembered Mie saying something about compensation. She's been in binds before and would always solve them with the sharp end of her blade but in this "illegal justice" operation that's going on...

...it doesn't look like she has a choice. Then again, these are humans she's going to punish so...

"...alright... umm... I'll do it under two conditions. You return the cart to me in one piece and without a scratch and you help me find a small human girl who supposedly got lost somewhere... I don't wanna come back and get punished." Elque gulped, a hand out for Mie to shake, she seemed a little okay around her own kind, the Demis but are wary of her two human friends, Mirt and Anyon. She's going to keep an eye on them if they try anything funny.

"I hope the Master doesn't suspect me taking too long..."

"Elque, be a dear and fetch the cart around the warehouse district. We're just about to finish up with our groceries..."

"What about Chiyo? Shouldn't we be finding her?"

"That's your other assignment, she's probably somewhere by the cart. I'm really worried, if you can find her there that'll be a relief for me.

"Ugh, fine. Sometimes I think you spoil her too much...

Five minutes ago. That conversation happened five minutes ago and upon reaching the cart. It was gone, the cart that they had brought all the way from the Ayt Forye estate just poofed out of existence... it would've been had it not left any tracks. Elque's day couldn't get any worse, irritated and angry... she believed that whoever took the cart probably kidnapped Chiyo somewhere and began running in the direction of the tracks thanks to her sense of sight and smell for being a Wolf-Cat. She hopped from roof to roof, hoping to catch the perpetrators from above. People were bothered by her whenever she hopped from each one, complaining about being reckless more than anything before taking sight of the cart moving slowly following a stone road. "There you are..." With a tightened grip on the sheath of her katana, she raced it, trying to get behind them and interrogate them with no turn behind them.

It was a risky move but she was sure she can handle a bunch of thieves.

"...can assure you such was not the case." Elque's ears twitch now walking slowly, her hand shifted slowly on the handle of her blade, ready to strike if they did anything rash.

"I don't have to wear that piece of string do I?"

She opened her mouth, making sure to be audible while her eyes stared down at the people before her. "You will be soon if you don't return that cart this instant." It was audible enough to be heard by them but not by the people near their destination. "And if you have a little girl in a black dress in there, you better cough her up too." Unknown to her, little Chiyo was off on a murdering spree someplace else.

Library of Valennia

The Stanier family and their affiliation to the Imperialist view of other Nobles were treated a little lower than their own standards by the current Republic however it did not change the influence when coming through the great Library of Valennia. Arius's own Library that is still a public hub for mages who wish to learn the arcane and master them. This was Eawyn's favorite place whenever the Royal Garnet had so much snobby nobles just slapping commoner servants with their sacks of gil.

Truly... Raelin's pride has sunk to a new low.

Eawyn thought that if she mastered the schools she has learned and perhaps revitalize True Sorcery, she can gain political influence as a legendary Mage in order for the government to change hands back to its Imperalist roots.

Alas, she has made no progress so far. Reading the same book once or twice and whenever new books come she would read those as well often times sharing the book to people who share her interests in magic mastery and/or how great if imperialism came back to Raelin.

"Ruins... ruins... no alternate entry... yada yada..." The young girl would yawn, several books stacked together on her left. "Ugh, those slowpokes at the newest ruin don't even know what's going on! I have to check on it every now and then to see if it changed but nothing significant even moved, not even an inch."

Scattered about were "doodles" or perhaps drafts about what she believed are the entrances to this new ruin compared to the "official" one brought around by highly respected Spectrum Magi. There was nothing she could do but just look on and hypothesize every path. This was getting nowhere.

Frustrated, she slammed her head down the table to which she quickly cried adorably, rubbing her forehead to ease the pain. Her eyes trail down the Dragon's Breath just dangling on her waist. It had been a day since she turned in the quest and whenever she returned to the library, she couldn't find any record of such an artifact.

There were no records of it being a Dogma just solidified into a fire crystal, no records of it being an Eikon despite its near-similar use and she wasn't even sure if this was connected to the Sage Civilization from eras past. If it was, why was it embedded on a "corrupted" Bandersnatch?

"...hmm..." Her head turned to the librarian. She had never once asked them if they've seen anything like the amulet she was wearing. Maybe they might give a hint to whatever the Dragon's Breath is?

Standing up, she walked toward the desk, amulet slung over her palm before clearing her throat. "Yes, hello? Excuse me. It's the Stanier girl again... I was just wondering if there are any other editions for magical artifacts you might be keeping somewhere? Kinda looks like this? If you can't maybe you can show me where you keep the books for the Multi-Realm Theory?" The Noblesse brought up the bright red, fiery jewel in front of the librarian. If they don't know anything maybe they can help by giving them a book not normally found in the library.

Worth a shot.
