Now you're starting to sound like a mage from our world.

@Nimda

Haha, constants and variables I suppose. But my point is, dark magic may be malevolent, but we cannot deny that darkness exists and thus to understand darkness is to control it and best it.

*Takes another gulp of mead*
Didn't you hate dark magic or something?

@Nimda

I do, it doesn't mean I don't know how to use it. Dark magic is... It's a double edged sword. Light and dark are two sides of the same coin. Without one there can't be the other. We are constantly battling against the light and dark within ourselves and I believe that, as much as we like to believe we're good hearted people, there will always be a little darkness in all of us. The question then becomes, does that little bit of darkness make us bad people? I do not think so.

What kind of magic are you an expert in again?

@Nimda

Well, I'm a mage. Generally I'm good with any kind of magic. But if you want to ask what my favorite is and what I'm most skillful with it'd be elemental spells. Fire, Earth, Water, Air, Ice, Light, Dark, and so on.

What are you teaching?

@Nimda

My specialty... Magic.

Trust me Noct, I’m doing you a favor. Lily was not about to make your day any better.
Lily: Hey!

@Nimda

Haha, ah well... Actually... I'm thinking of setting up a school in Xanadu. That's why I'm very involved in its affairs at the moment. That bear is a danger to the people I'm in charge of. There are a number of capable warriors there, but that bear is beyond their ability at the moment.

Lily: *Opens my mouth*
-I am going to kill you if you say anything to the owl.
Lily: *Closes my mouth*

@Nimda

*Noct is saddened by this silence*

Ahaha, well, that's what you get for joking around Noct.

<Snipped quote by Vacare>

Lily: I think Noct would take very good care of your body. Isn't that right, Noct?

@Nimda

*Noct coos lightly as he's addressed by Lily*

You're biased to a pretty lady...

Lily: *Frowns*
Poor Noct.
-Poor me! What she neglected to mention is that when my body got back from that little trip, I had four poison darts through my shoulder!

@Nimda

Youch! Well, good thing Noct can't take control of me.

*Noct pecks at my face*

Ouch! Hey! I make sure to reward you well don't I?

<Snipped quote by Vacare>

Lily: You know it! Tombs are the way to go.
-We were running low on cash and had to find something that paid well. And wouldn't get me killed.
Lily: So he had me do it!

@Nimda

So you had your best friend search the ruins for you while you kicked back? Damn.

*Noct looks at me with great disappointment*

<Snipped quote by Vacare>

Lily: We rescued a cat!
-Really setting the bar high there, huh? We helped a farmer get ready for the next crop season, captured a herd of escaped livestock, and explored an ancient pyramid.

@Nimda

After exploring that ancient temple we met in, you chose to go to an ancient pyramid? You guys really like tunnels and dark spaces don't ya? Ah well, at least it wasn't exploring a cursed, ruined kingdom.
