Day II- 8:00

I see a shirtless man with angel wings, followed by another woman who I presumed to be Archemiday and Sanaca run down the stars. "Dude. Nice." I said aloud. Taking me off guard he swings a lute at my face and I fall onto the ground. "He doesn't look like a Bandit, so, can we have breakfast innkeep?"

UGH! How dare this man dismiss me so quickly!

With my dominant leg I swipe-kick this man and kick him in the stomach.

"That will teach you to dismiss me." I told him defiantly. I stood up, still trying to appear dignified. "No, I'm not a Bandit," I told them, "But, I am badly wounded and in need of a place to stay." I turned to the innkeeper, "I was the one who you turned away last night. You ignorant piece of--" I was cut off by being spun around and punched square in the face. "You little!" I shreiked. Another punch. "You're ON!" I strike back hard, fueled by rage.

((That was a lot to put into one post. o_O So many clashing events. I think I nailed it though.))

EDIT: ((Dang it, Hex. I almost nailed all of this))

DOUBLE EDIT: ((Wow, I seem to like starting all of the new pages))

OOC FTW! DAG NABIT!!!

LOL I just spent, like thirty minutes waiting for a new post, I had no idea that you made a new page xD
But more importantly... er what to do, should we um... go back? Or actually.. how about... well no... let's think about this for a second... :/

EDIT: Okay, I'll negate my last post, and go with yours, and you just snuggle in a part that acknowledges that Sanaca already told everyone to stop before hand. Will that work? Sorry about all this Ise, but it's just so darn exciting, that you get caught up and everyone's rushing to get their stuff out! xD

Miyu catches the punch in her

Miyu catches the punch in her right hand, taking the brunt of the hit but leaving you open to counterattacks, and quickly takes the moment to grab your shoulder and throw you off balance. HARD. You sail out the door and into the town. You get to your feet. The noise has drawn attention, and now a mob of townsfolk, some waving weapons, others betting on the outcome, has formed. There's no escaping now.

(arch isn't shirtless, he put his shirt back on and slept, and he wouldn't see the wings)

He tripped me. I got up resisting the urge to hit him. He got into a fight with someone else. I requested breakfast again from the inn keep. I walked outside and whispered to Sana, "Should I stop the fight?"

Should I let this continue?!

Sanaca looks out at the Knight who had just been thrown out, and back at the one who did it. She followed the Knight out to see a large gathering crowd. Looking around, she knew that the loser would probably be completely robbed and mobbed to death. She could see that the crowd was full of bandits, and other suspicious characters, the fight was giving them an excuse to riot. If something wasn't done fast...

Sanaca felt her hand brush by her bag. She could... but that would be too drastic, would it?

(HOLD IT!!!!!)

(A giant speech bubble forms reading, "HOLD IT!" Time stops as several omnipresent begins take center stage. ...Time rewinds to the initial inn...)

A woman is just walking in and the bard and healer have come downstairs to a bandit. This is where the timestream splits. We have decided to make them whole...

The confrontation happens on a smaller scale. The healer stops them both before a full-out brawl begins. The woman quietly agrees. The "bandit" with the bad leg, although still smoldering in anger, decides to not let this get out of hand.

(Time resumes...)

"Just go with it!"

Sanaca turned towards Archemiday, doing a quick inspection in her head, she whispered back,

"No, I don't want you to keep going into fight's or even put yourself in a dangerous situation, you need to have at least one day of down time to fully heal, and if you keep going at it, it'll never get better. And besides, I doubt it'd work, it would probably just rally the crowd up even more, and they might just turn on you and create a bigger mess." Sanaca looked at the scene worriedly. What were they to do? She didn't want to take action, but it would be so easy...

*(OOC: EDIT: Every time without fail, when I post something, someone has already posted something that is contrary to mine, but whatever, let us please just go with what the Omnipotent beings have agreed upon... xD)

Miyu sits on the bench. "I'd like a stay for the night, please." Her smile looked pure and innocent, and she certainly had the coin, salvaged from her last sleeping spot, so she now had a room to return to come nightfall. "See now, this is the advantage of stopping and looking around - Crown stashes are EVERYWHERE if you know where to look."

Huh. I just felt some wibbly wobbly timey wimey stuff. I asked the inn keep for some breakfast and sat down. A woman had walked in and purchased a room. She looked like an innocent person. She was a bit cute to- what is wrong with me. I shook my head and started to retune my lute, in preparation for tonights performance.

Mind as well, right?

Sanaca shivered as she felt a strange disturbance within the quantum continuum of time and space, as everything seemed to warp and time resumed.

As Arche went over to grab some well needed breakfast, Sanaca went over to the Knight who had posed as a bandit.

"You're hurt, are you feeling okay?" She said, carefully helping them up. "Why did you try and pose as a bandit? If I weren't here, you could have gotten more then a bad reputation."

Miyu stepped into her room.

Miyu stepped into her room. It was a little musty, but what else did she expect from a town founded by bandits? She walked to her bed. Worn hard from many Knights having slept here, she then considered that she hadn't eaten anything today. She checked her bag. Nothing, save for about ten crowns. She went back to the main room and bought a Rocky Core for her ten crowns. Slicing the top off of the Core, she munched on its innards and saved the rock. It might prove helpful later. The core itself was sweet, but it solved both hunger and thirst. She then sat at the table.

(( OKAY SORRY. ))

(( Right, I forgot this was the next day. I just couldn't resist making that joke. @post #105 ))

"Stop, stop, STOP!" Sanaca put herself in between me and the other knight. I stared at the other knight. Still seething with anger. Let's not make this a huge deal... I turned still angry towards the innkeeper. "I need a room, my leg is seriously injured, it may or may not be infected. I need a place to stay. I don't have the crowns, but I WILL pay you back. You have my word, whatever that may mean to you." The innkeeper looked torn, but finally he relented. "Fine. Just be sure to pay me back, em>soon," he told me. I nodded. Still mad, I pushed past the couple and walked upstairs to my room. I made careful notice of the muddy footprints on the floor. They led to room 104. I'll remember that... When I got in my room I slammed the door. At that moment, I hoped anybody who was sleeping woke up.

I grabbed my breakfast from the table. It was two waffles, and they looked a little stale. I digged in regardless. I needed to have some energy to perform that night. "So, where should we search for materials first?". I asked Sanaca.

Sanaca took a moment to

Sanaca took a moment to think, then replied,

"It would be best to start and see what scraps we can pick up. Like that girl said, there are crown stashes 'everywhere'." Then Sanaca remembered the crowns she had stolen. "With the extra cash we got, I'm sure we could get ourselves some better equipment and some more supplies as well, and hopefully that writing pad I've been needing!" They went back to the room as soon as Archemiday had finished, and grabbed a few things.

"We should probably leave most of the crowns here, we don't want to become anymore of a target." Archemiday suggested, picking up the pouch. "Oh yeah, what should we do with this piece of metal?" He asked, holding the strange metal scrap.

"I guess we should take it with us, we can ask around to see if anybody knows what it is." Sanaca proposed. Afterwords, they set out, back to the few shops in in the town, starting with the Weapon shop. The Weapon's shop owner grunted as the two Knight's entered. "Anything you want in particular?" Sanaca asked Archemiday. He looked around then replied,

"A Flourish sounds good." Sanaca nodded and went up to the shop owner.

"Do you have a Flourish for sale?" The shop owner looked at her with a dark, stern glare.

"5000 Crowns or something of equal value, none of your Standard Issue Gear, got enough of those." The shop owner snorted, hinting at something dark. "Neither any of your services, I let you off easy last time, but this time, I need to see some dough." Sanaca turned back to Archemiday in dismay.

"We only brought 1000 crowns, and we don't have enough for it, even if we did bring all of it." Sanaca told Archemiday.

"It's fine." Archemiday said, but then remembered the metal. "We should ask if he knows what this is." He pulled it out, and showed it to the shop owner. "You know what this thing is?" Archemiday inquired. The shop owner glanced at it, then sat fully up in his chair. Eyes widened, he inspected the metal a bit more in depth. He looked back at Archemiday with serious eyes.

"That there's some Shadow Silver."

"What? Don't you mean Shadow Steel? Or Sun Silver?" Sanaca questioned.

"Nope, I mean Shadow Silver." The owner lowered his voice drastically. "Pay me up a few, and I'll tell you everything, and seal my mouth." Sanaca looked at Archemiday with curiosity.

"Should we? Whatever it is, is seems important. Being in a bag full of crowns from a bandit, and now we have a shop owner wanting us to pay him in order for us to find out what it is?" She whispered to him. "I'm not sure what's so special about this thing, but it might be worth finding out." Sanaca turned back to the owner, then asked, "How much?" He grinned, not a pretty sight by any means.

"For you, 700 crowns." His voice was still kept low, his grin menacing in the dim light.

"What do you think?" Sanaca said, gazing back at Archemiday.

Archemiday-Thebard's picture
Archemiday-Thebard

"Sure. It seems to be important.". I replied. I wasn't too sure about the decision, but if it was found off a bandit and he said he would keep his mouth shut about it, it must have some value.

Hexlash's picture
Hexlash
HURRAY!

"Good decision." Sanaca said, pulling out 700 crowns and dropping them onto the desk. The Weapon's shop owner got up, glanced out the door, then came back, gesturing for them to huddle.

"Here's the stuff. The Wastelands, are a very, very mysterious, strange and fore mostly deadly place. People do whatever it takes to survive out here, and the Wastelands are harsh, but they contain, what some might call, treasure. Though it wouldn't appear that way at first, there's something special about this place that you can't seem to get anywhere else, not even the Clockworks." Sanaca and Archemiday looked at each other, the Wastelands had something even the Clockworks didn't? That was astonishing. "It all started when this Knight was sent here for attempting to release a deadly toxic gas into the Advanced Training Hall, then steal anything that he could get his hands on, so that he could make, well no one ever found out. Not too much is known about him, but he is known here for having experimented with the strange things that are found here, for what purpose, also unknown. One day, a long time ago, when a new batch of airships flew in some new Knights, he took one of them down with a weapon that no one had ever seen before. When the bandits and other folks reached the airship, they found that a strange substance had begun to engulf the downed ship; and anything within it. One bandit tried to get in; went up like a firework he did, seems the strange substance not only spreads, but upon contact with something too fast, explodes violently. Eventually one of the bandit gangs managed to explode the rest of the strange thing off, only to find that all the valuable things inside had already been taken, or consumed beyond use by the very thing that brought the ship down."

"But that still doesn't explain what this thing is, and why you make it sound so valuable, we got a crazy smart dude, so what?" Archemiday interjected.

"I'll tell you what. We almost forgot about that day, until a Knight managed to stumble back to Vendetta. Says a crazy Knight just took over an entire town of bandits. This guy was the leader of one of the ruling gangs, didn't seem like it at first, scarred, terrified, weak; he was broken. He said that even though all the gangs banded together, they were no match for him. He was the lone survivor. But in the very end he managed to steal some incredibly important things from the crazed Knight. Never did say how either. He had several sheets of paper, filled with writing, but I could never make it out. He also brought back two pieces of "legendary", he called it, metal. Shadow Silver, and Sun Steel. The crazed Knight managed to combine the properties of Shadow Steel and Sun Silver into two powerful metal alloys. No, not just powerful, truly legendary metals."

"Wait, if he combined the two metals together, why did it end up with two again?" Sanaca asked, listening with unwavering attention.

"Not sure... As a Weapon's expert, I suspect that somehow, the two metals cancelled each other's power out when they became equal, so he had to create one that had more of one or the other in order for it to work."

"So, this is an extremely powerful metal, what else should we know?" Archemiday bore down on the shop owner, who seemed to have forgotten that he was reluctant to tell them in the first place. The shop keeper thought for awhile, then spoke.

"I'm not entirely sure, but I hear rumours that the Shadow Silver is corrupt. It slowly drives anyone near it insane, but it's actual power is undeniable. Even that small looking chunk can create a weapon that could..." He trailed off. Sanaca whispered to Archemiday,

"The bandit that I took this from was, well, very unstable, the way he acted was - very dangerous. When I was-" Sanaca paused, she didn't really want to tell Archemiday that she had given treatment to a bandit that had attacked her. "inspecting him, there was definitely something off about him." The shop keeper cleared his throat and continued.

"Well, if Shadow Silver Corrupts, then I suspect with a sufficient amount of Sun Steel, you could negate the effects of the corruption." He looked up into the two Knights eyes. "But once again, it's only rumours."

"Could you... make a weapon out of this for us?" Sanaca blurted. The Weapon's shop owner bellowed a hearty laugh, also terrifying.

"It would take quite some work, and a lot of materials I don't have, not to mention tools I don't have either. Nowadays, I'm more of a second hand trader then a smith. If you wanted to make a weapon of it, I could do it... for a hefty price, as well as gathering a couple of, burdensome materials." Sanaca peered back at Archemiday, was it worth it? "Or, I could buy it off you for a rather high sum of crowns." The shop keeper offered with a sly grin. Seriously, any sign of positive emotion from this dude was downright creepy.

"What do you think? Should we sell it to this guy? We could certainly do for some founds. We could try and see if we can make a weapon from it too, but that doesn't sound very practical right now. Or we could just keep the Shadow Silver, and try to find out more about it or something?" Sanaca asked Archemiday. "Oh and we could ask him about those pieces of paper, we could learn something from them too!"

Waking up

The sun was shining and the morning dew was gone.Libritor yawned and stretched a bit before looking for his baggage...and found it all gone.
He decided to find his way to the town that the guard mentioned.After a few hours of trekking he reached the town and,in need of a weapon, tried to find a kind enough soul who would donate a few crowns for him to buy an alchemer.
After being kicked and mishandled by the locals he finally found a group of knights along with a a Not-So-Warlike Lady.
Thinking them to be his best bet,he respectfully asked"Hello!Can you guys give this lonely knight a few crowns?"

Thinking while watching what happens

I should never joined Warmaster Seerus. My mind was set to recover my items and remove the record. I was told if I could bring Warmaster Seerus down and get him to jail, I would get all my items back. That never worked because they thought I was going to stay in the gang. They never thought of getting trust to then bring them down on the inside.

Day II-- 13:00

I woke after a couple hours sleep. I felt not that much better, but there was a noticeable difference. I walked downstairs and told the innkeeper, "I'm off to pay you back, I'll be back later. I promise." The innkeeper didn't look that convinced, but I guess he noticed I left my puke-ridden cobalt gear in my room. I yawned ready to pay back the innkeeper, and hopefully to get something that is better than standard issue, I didn't plan on keeping Cobalt. I looked back at my dog tag, sad that it didn't offer me my name. And I looked at my crystal necklace. I turned it over, and to my surprise it said, "For Drewaq" So, that's my name. Drewaq.

~

I decided I would head to the Bazaar, maybe some ignorant peddler or some person selling wares would know a good way to earn money. Trying my best I walked over to the nearest shop and asked, "Do you know a way for an..." I paused searching for the right word, when I found it I smiled, "Adventurer to earn his way in the Wasteland?" He scoffed, "Maybe I know a good way or maybe I don't," he told me with an ugly smirk, exposing his bad teeth. Ugh, there is only one way to get through to these people, I sighed under my breath. "Well, I guess you have no answers then," I took one step away facing away from him. Then I spun around and blindsided him with a Caliber-hilt-to-the-face. The scrawny man fell backwards, ruining his own stand. "Oops," I said. I walked over to him and picked him up by the collar, "Now what were you saying about a good way to make money?" By this time a crowd gathered behind me, always lusting for entertainment and violence. This happened to be both entertaining and violent, "And make sure to whisper it, I don't want anybody to know our little secret," I told him violently. "Uh, umm, for skilled swordsmen and excellent marksmen there's the Colliseum, it's far from here, b-but I hear stories of knights that gained fame and fortune there! A-also, if you're able-bodied, most people in towns need help, most of them will give you something for your trouble!" I glared at him for a few more second, "Please, sir! That's all I know!" I took his word, and threw him on the table behind him. I started to walk out of his stand and managed to pick up his bag of crowns when I was strangling him. Time to get fame and fortune.

(OOC: Holy shin guards, I had way too many errors in that last post, but I fixed them.)

Sanaca nodded and turned back to the Weapon's shop owner.

"We're going to hang onto the metal for now. But do you know where we can get those sheets of paper? You said that you couldn't make them out, so you must have them." The shop owner frowned and shook his head.

"Don't have a single one. I only got a chance to look at them when that bandit was explaining to the town what had happened, but I'd wager that wherever you got your Shadow Silver from, that's the place to look for those papers. After the bandit explained, he was mobbed, I was lucky, being the first one there just to get the full story."

"Well, okay, thanks for the info." Sanaca thanked the shop owner, before joining Archemiday at the door. "We should probably get a move on, we haven't gotten any supplies yet." She noticed that Archemiday was peering at something. "What is it?"

"Just someone walking into town. Anyways, where should we go?". I said. I reached into my pocket and felt a small piece of paper. It read "Arch - 1413". I put it back into my pocket, not knowing what it was. It did seem familiar though.

May I join?

Name: Gwenyvier Valentine, a.k.a. "The Finder"
Age: unknown, appears young
Appearance
Personality: she is generally quiet and cynical, but won't hesitate to offer advice and help to those who need it. Her descent into insanity taught her many hard and valuable lessons about life, and she is determined to right the wrongs she had inflicted on the world during her insanity.

On a related note, she is re-developing her sense of humor to help cope with her pain and guilt, though judging from how bad her jokes are, she clearly has a long way to go.

Biography: She was once a powerful Valkyrie in the service of Archangel Freyja before the Core seized control of her mind. She became an avatar for the Core, and served in that capacity for many years before a certain...unfortunate occurrence involving the Swarm rendered her corrupt. The Core took pity on her and tried to cleanse her by transferring all corruption to itself, but the process backfired, instead removing all corruption from the Core and placing it in the avatar. In an attempt to salvage the situation, the Core severed the telepathic link, which had the unfortunate side effect of wiping the girl of her memories and driving her insane.

She became like a curse upon the world, hunting sentient beings for the sadistic pleasure of it. Her recovery was slow, and only the persistence of her few remaining friends held her destructive tendencies at bay.

By the time of this RP, she has completely recovered. She now remembers her name, her past, and her former personality. She joined the Spiral Order, and was training to become a Spiral Warden when she learned that an accusation of treason had been leveled at her. She was thrown onto the planet Vendetta, condemned to die for her crimes. Her renewed faith and hope in God has driven her to fight for her innocence, so that she may someday fulfill her dream of becoming a Spiral Warden.

Specialization: stealth, speedy offense

Arsenal: dual wrist-mounted mechanically-assisted psi-blades, equivalent to Caliburs; a psi-shield equivalent to a Defender; chemically-treated leather armor equivalent to Cobalt. Her psi-blade emitters can be reconfigured to fire Blaster-style energy bolts.

Weaknesses: she hasn't fully conquered her impulsive tendencies. She is also pretty clueless about fighting bombers.

Strengths: she is a very experience huntress, being able to track people with relatively few clues, and can hold her own in a fight against most opponents with superior equipment (except bombers). Her swordsmanship, in particular, is nigh-legendary.

Faction: everyone's, or her own, depending on how you look at it. She won't shrink from assisting anyone with a justified need, but by the same token, she will not help anyone whose cause is ambiguous.

Other notes: she has a thin Void scar underneath her right eye. To those who are not aware of its significance, it means two things:
1. That she was once corrupted by the Swarm.
2. It's a continuity mark. She is the same Gwenyvier from Return to Cradle.

We are poor, baby!

Sanaca agreed,

"That's a great idea, hopefully armor isn't as expensive as weaponry." They entered, the Armor shop owner greeting Sanaca.

"Brought along a little friend, eh?" He mocked in a gruff voice. "What yah looking for?"

"Do you have any Wolver Coats?" Sanaca inquired.

"You could say that, ain't no Wolvers out here, wouldn't believe the sorts of things that are. Make great warm coats, luckily. Some claim better than Wolver coats, but no way of upgrading one here in Vendetta. The beasts may be common, and it's fairly simple to make a good coat, but the amount of people that dare to make hunting anything at night their living is near nothing, it'll cost you around 6000 crowns for one of the coats."

"So much for that idea." Sanaca sighed. She thought for a moment, then asked, "What if we wanted to make one? What would it cost?" The Armor shop owner tapped his helmet for a second, then said,

"Just get me the right materials and its yours. The leftovers from the process are quite handy, or you could pay 500 crowns for everything back." He explained.

"Your call," Sanaca said to Archemiday. "Sounds like a good deal, but we might not be able to take on this hunting gig, but on the other hand we could learn a lot from defeating a beast that appears at night."

Continuity? Continuity.

(OOC: Btw, Thinslayer, Vendetta is a town, not a planet, if Im not mistaken...)

"Well, that leaves us with two choices, we could continue to search for materials, or try and prepare ourselves by figuring out more about what exactly this beast is, and any other dangers there may be." Sanaca decided.

Archemiday-Thebard's picture
Archemiday-Thebard

"We should probably continue to gather materials.". I said. I took another look at the slip of paper which read "Arch - 1413". I then recognized it, it was my id. To anyone possibly reading my mind somehow right now, all valkyriods come with a pass, mine being arch - 1413. If someone were to get a hold of the id and say it to them, they would basically shut down and upon reboot, become their servant. Oh yeah, a valkyriod is basically a robot Valkyrie. Some valkyriods are not directly chosen by someone to serve them, and are free to do whatever besides what Freyja told us. Thus, when I did something stupid and ran, I turned into a fallen valkyriod. Most valkyries were ordered to find me, and dismantle me for what I did. Not fun. Even friends I had when I was young were ordered to get me. I put my pass back in mu pocket. I did not want to lose it.

(Just some change I wanted to make for possible future plot twists.)

I'll just start anyways...

(OOC: If my app isn't accepted, I'll redact this thing.)

"All right you, down you go!" I am roughly pushed out of the aircraft, and free-fall to the ground. I spread my wings to slow my descent, and soon am forced to kiss the ground.

I right myself and surf down the river of dirt, and skid to a stop at the base of the mountain, throwing up a dust cloud. I recover my breath and look around. The place smells of hot dust, and the winds cloud up my vision. After a few minutes, it clears a bit to reveal a quaint little village not far away. Behind me is the mountain, and to my side is a gray, dried-up forest.

Dang, this place is depressing.

No point in sticking around outside. I stroll into town, and overhear faint voices in what appears to be an armor shop. I shut my eyes and pray for safe passage before opening the door. I shut the door, and the bell rings cheerfully as it closes. Several people, all dressed alike in Cobalt, are standing around, and their merry chatter dies when they realize that a newcomer is present.

Evidently, they find me intimidating, because one of them looks like he's about to run (Archemiday; he dislikes valkyries, remember?). I cross my arms, walk up beside him and lean back on the counter. "Hey there. No need to be afraid of me, dude." I grin as I extend my hand to greet him.

"The name's Gwen."

I noticed a woman walking into town. She looked like... Oh. My. Vog. It was Gwen. I used to look up to her when I wasn't fallen. I tried to walk backwards and tripped as she came closer. "I'm Gwen.". She said, holding her hand out to me. Did she not recognize me? Did she forget about the orders to capture me? I might as well play along and hope she doesn't notice who I am. I grabbed her hand, and she pulled me up. "I-I'm.... Ar... Archem... Archemiday...". I was shuddering in fear. Oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh >_<. I hope she doesn't know my pass number, or I am screwed! "H-how is your day going?"

((Seeing as I lengthened my post by cutting it, I am bored and I am waiting for Top's reply. Enough talk :/))

-Earlier night-

"Who are you and what do you want?" the guy in Cobalt said. Seth raised his arms and laughed, then the Cobalt guy repeated his question, further closing in on him with his modified Blaster, or something looking like it.

"I'm.." Seth began, and the words were trapped, he was silent. Dammit, Seth! Pull yourself together! I know you prefer solo but if this is what it takes to survive... I'll do it!
"...Seth. M-m-m-mind...having an *ulk* a...lliance with... Me...?" Seth mustered, and awaited the Cobalt guy's reply.

Orders? What orders?

"Ugh, my day's been going just fabulously. I got convicted of treason, stuffed into an airship, unceremoniously dropped from the sky, and got dirt in my mouth upon landing. So much for becoming a warden..." I shrug and stare at my dusty boots. "But it could be worse. You seem pretty uptight, man. What happened to you?"

Hold on @Arche and @Thin!

(OOC: I got a headache and then when I tried to post, it said that I had gotten logged out and all my work was deleted, so just hang onto your horses for a second so I can get my part out! This part Goes in between Gwen's arrival and Arche's embarrassment. I've literally had to rewrite this thing three times... Sigh, the world hates me :c)

"Well, if you're confident, then I guess." Sanaca said, uncertain. "We'll start by seeing what materials we can buy, then work from there." Sanaca turned to the shop owner. "Do you have a list of the materials we need?" The shop owner nodded and handed her a paper with the materials needed scrawled in a list. "Thank you, we'll be back."

"Oh, by the way, do you have any stolen papers from the crazy knight?" Archemiday remembered. The Armor shop's owner stared at him blankly for awhile, then abruptly straightened up.

"We don't talk much about the 'crazy knight', and no, I do not."

"Let's head back to the Inn and grab some more crowns, as well as drop off that 'metal' before we continue." Sanaca suggested.

"Sure, that sounds like a gre-"

(@Thin, as noted earlier in the RP, valkyries were to capture and dismantle for a reason he has not told anyone yet.)

"A-ah. I-I'm just a bit nervous t-to be here.". Oh no oh mo oh no, this is bad. I don't want to get dismantled!

Reading minds.

(OOC: I'm sure Arch is aware that Gwen is still telepathic? Also...if he's had any experience with or heard any tales about The Finder, he might be even more anxious to get away from her.)

Oh non oh no oh no, this is bad. I don't want to get dismantled!

Dismantled?

I cross my arms and cock my head. "What's that all about? I won't "dismantle" you. Why, are you a construct or something?" Another grin creeps up my face.

Sintag better accept your character xD

Sanaca stopped scouring through the list and stood next to Archemiday, taking note of his strange behaviour.

"Hello, do you two know each other?" Sanaca hadn't wanted to bother the two, but then she remembered to introduce herself. "Oh I'm sorry, I forgot, my name's Sanaca." Then she leaned close to Archemiday. "You okay? Is something wrong?"
