<DeathStar> Anyway, we're just doing the normal 2

<DeathStar> Just happpy I can fit in tonight's before tomorrow
<DeathStar> Alright final update from last week
<ChadWinters`> Your joke game is weak
<DeathStar> Mom wants anyone who got her phone number to hold onto it for years
<DeathStar> She said, just in case
<DeathStar> That'll be the last time I said it
<Luci> ;A;
* Luci hides from Chad.
* Sathen isn't liked enough to have anybody's phone number that's in here
<Xanatos> SHe posted the number in the main room. You have it.
<Nyaomi> I mean I saved it to my phone log
<DeathStar> she also said she sucks at cell phones and that she'll contact one of you this week to update you all
<Luci> 7163809270
<Nyaomi> So unless it changes
<Luci> Now you all has mine.
<Nyaomi> I have both in my cell
<DeathStar> Likely it'll be you kit, since she remembers you since you called her
<DeathStar> So you'll be the updater
<Nyaomi> I have it saved as Kevin emergency '-';
<Sathen> only known you how many years Gabby?
<Luci> Lots!

<Sara> Outside of Europe
* Chaintan lobs otter at both
* Sara catches otter and hugs
<Luci> ((Welcome to TAW))
<DeathStar> O?
* DeathStar sniffles
<Chaintan> (*rubs DS*)
<DeathStar> 7.15.5991
<DeathStar> Location: Up North, the Spiritalists Kingdom
<DeathStar> 6* The group, traveling by Flying Carrigage, has traveling up there to learn more about about the Spirit's Realm. They have sent the other units to deal with the kidnapped people that have been dragged into the various realms around Geyze, figuring that Spiritalits know more about it from the last session, from what I remember
<Luci> * Especially that Kalam lady! Alita shivers a bit and uses Talia as a scarf.
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy had summoned Salamander to use as a heater for lover, pilot, etc
<Sathen> *Mykel steps out of the carriage after Alita, thankful once again for his dragoon heritage and not being succeptible to the cold. He helps the others disembark*
<DeathStar> 6* Isis leans against Miyuki while the team's carriage begins to get closer
<Sathen> *Maeryn climbs out slowly wearing several layers of furs in an attempt to stay warm*
<Luci> (( Still travelling I think.))
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki rubs Isis's ears
<DeathStar> <Isis> What do you think we'll find?
<Sara> * Ellie pats Sylph, peering out the window of the carriage
<DeathStar> <Shion> Trouble
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> trouble most likely
<Luci> Alita> "Spirits?"
<Luci> Talia> "Fish!"
<Sathen> *Maeryn at that point tries to inch closer to Salamader to get warm, but not close enough to catch fire*
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy deadpans at them all
<Sathen> Mykel> I'd say we'll find a lot more questions than answers.
<DeathStar> *Sylph rubs*
<Sara> <Ellie> Just... be prepared for trouble either way
<DeathStar> *The carriage finally reaches the top of the mountain, landing into a huge snow drift*
<Luci> Alita> "Well it was a soft landing."
<DeathStar> *Gwen shakes, cold*
<Xanatos> 6* Simon adjusts his coat and peers out the carriage window.
<Sathen> *Maeryn stares at the ice and snow like it's evil* I. Don't. Like. The. Cold.
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki bounds out like nothing is different
<Luci> * Talia hops onto Gwen and curls around him as a scarf. "I warm husband."
* Jackieness has joined #DualSession155&156
<DeathStar> 6* Built around a massive castle, the Summoni Capital is a city built around the base of it. Sylph pushes Gwen out
<Luci> * Alita moves to climb out.
<Sara> * Ellie gets out carefully
<DeathStar> <Shion> Lets hope that Vyvy's woman has answers
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> My woman, huh
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Master has some, yes.
<DeathStar> 6* Isis peers over the cliff edge, the castle having a huge drop that goes down and down
<Xanatos> <Simon> Not many do. 6* He buttons a few of his coat buttons up to his neck and gets out, sliding his hands into his pockets, letting out a puff of air from his mouth.
<Sara> <Ellie> Vyvy's woman? That could be anyone
<Sathen> *Mykel follows after Alita, helping the others out* Not every Spirit is Vyvy's by default.
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy squints at Ellie, snagging Sylph
<DeathStar> <Sylph> Aieee!
<Sara> * Ellie grabs Sylph right back
<Sara> <Ellie> Sylphie is not "your woman" though!
<Luci> Alita> "Oh my."
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *steps out of the carriage*
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> She might have been before you came along. Nest-snatcher
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy sneers, but she doesn't sound very serious.
<Sara> <Ellie> Monopolist
<DeathStar> <Sylph> *she sits on Ellie's head*
<Sathen> *Maeryn shivers and follows after Sasha, stutter stepping as she goes*
<Luci> Talia> "Talia become master summoner."
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> That's not true at all, I haven't even touched a male spirit..
<DeathStar> <Isis> Oh dear. I-- *she pauses as Spiritalist monks appear*
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Hrmph.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "We finished with the lover spats, yes?"
<Luci> Alita> "Aren't almost all of them female?"
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Not really. Many are male.
<Sara> <Ellie> A little over half
<DeathStar> <Kalam> Are we having an issue?
<Luci> Alita> "I remember that... erm... Plasma boy?"
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> I'm pre-disposed. My first lover and bond was a young lady, after all.
<Luci> Talia> "Hi Kalam Lady!"
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy salutes Kalam.
<DeathStar> 6* Celsius pokes Gwen, pushing him along, while Shion shrugs
<Luci> Alita> "Where is Spira anyway?"
<Sara> * Ellie holds Sylph protectively as if she might be snatched again
<Sathen> *Mykel moves up beside the others and bows his head to Kalam in greeting*
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Ahem!"
<Luci> * Talia rides around Gwen's mouth as a cat scarf.
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Probably hiding in the luggage, cold.
<DeathStar> <Kalam> If you like I can unleash a tentacle monster that enjoys males
<Luci> Alita> "Hmm... Mykel?"
<DeathStar> *she turns to the others* <Kalam> Shall we proceede?
<Sathen> *Maeryn shivers and tries to position herself with another team member to block the wind*
<Sara> * Ellie looks at Kalam and frowns at the idea
<DeathStar> <Gwen> P-Please don't
<Sara> * Then moves to follow along
<Luci> Talia> "Tentacle monster cannot have Gwennie. Mine."
<Xanatos> 6* Simon archs a brow and tilts his head.
<DeathStar> <Kalam> Well. And here I thought this was a male hating group
<Sathen> Mykel> Please don't, I fear I have enough problems in the bedroom with my recent marriage*
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy removes her jacket and puts it around Maeryn, leaving herself in just a white flowing shirt.
<Luci> Alita> "I'm married to one?"
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki lassos a tail and pulls Isis close to keep her safe and warm
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *turns and then curtsies to Kalam* "Thanbk you for receiving us."
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> I don't hate males." Points at Gwen. "I just... don't really find them attractive sexually.
<Luci> * Talia blinks. "What's attractive again?"
<Luci> Alita> "When you like how someone looks dear."
<Luci> Talia> "Oh, then I attracted to Gwen."
<Sathen> *Maeryn wears two full fur cloaks, but accepts another layer*
<DeathStar> 6* Kalam moves along, leading them along. Isis churrs happily, while Gwen grabs the luggage. Sylph hugs onto Ellie's head, while Celsius hops along. After an hour, the group finds themselves in sparse quarters, seperated by women and male
<Xanatos> 6* Simon pulls some gloves out of his pocket and slides them on, moving to follow Kalam.
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy brings up a hand and focuses, calling on heat sprites to 'enchant' her jacket around Maeryn, shrugging.
<Luci> * Talia paws towards the men's quarters, missing Gwen.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Now then... where is that niece of mine who was hiding in my luggage?"
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Probably with Spira.
<Luci> Alita> "Did you poke sufficient breathing holes in the luggage this time?"
<DeathStar> 6* Spira pokes out of the luggage, gasping for air, while the monks get their luggage stuff. Isis sits calmly, their rooms connecting
<DeathStar> <Monk> Lady Kalam said when you are comfortable, you can go to her room
<Luci> Alita> "I think we're sufficiently settled in, with my little clan."
<DeathStar> <Monk> She wishes to meet with you group without bothering the others
<Sara> ((Selena*?))
<Luci> Talia> "Is there fish!?"
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> I'm fine to go.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Selena!"
<Sathen> *Maeryn waits quietly with them, pulling out a small sliver of jerked meat to nibble on*
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Spira, find little Selena.
<DeathStar> 6* Spira pulls out Selena
<DeathStar> <Selena> Er, uh, hi mother
<DeathStar> 6* Isis sips some chocolate, sitting with Miyuki and Shion
<Luci> Alita> "Liana, you must put a bell on her or something."
<Sara> * Liana just chuckles
<Sara> <Liana> She's adventurous, and you can't stop adventure
<DeathStar> 6* The monks leave, while Gwen enters the girl's area, wearing a sweater
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "...Liana..."
<DeathStar> 6* Celsius pauses, peering outside quietly, looking odd
<Luci> * Talia poofs into a girl and pounces to hug on Gwen.
<DeathStar> <Selena> I wanted to see the snow
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki's ears wiggle
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Are you okay, Celsius?
<Xanatos> 6* Simon steps in after Gwen, looking a bit warmer, face a bit flush from the difference in temperature.
<Sara> <Liana> I always tried to sneak along with grandpa, but grandpa's too cunning
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *lets out a sigh*
<Luci> * Alita stands up and stretches, yawning a bit.
<DeathStar> <Celsius> I don't know why, but this place feels odd. <Shion> You are an ice spirit, this place is your home, right?
<Xanatos> <Simon> Odd? How so?
<Luci> Alita> "Hrm."
<Sara> <Liana> Define 'odd'?
<Luci> * Alita peers about and feels out the mana of the place.
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Celsius originated from a mountain near the mage tower we appropriated
<Sathen> *Mykel follows along after them, not phased by the temperature but checking on ALita and Celia to make sure they're doing alright*
<Sara> <Liana> Is something... wrong that should be right?
<DeathStar> *Celsius tries to think, then shrugs, not used to talking*
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "The situation is still uncertain. You should have stayed at the Academy where you would be safe, Selena."
<DeathStar> <Selena> Sor-ry..
<DeathStar> <Gwen> I'll stay in the room with Selena and Spira
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki gently pets Celsius
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> She's already here, just let her tag along. What's the harm in being enlightened on a conversation?
<Luci> Alita> "Maybe something about the manaflow?" *she holds out her hands and tries to get a sense of it*
<DeathStar> <Celsius> Feel like something here is calling Celsius
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Besides, she's touched by Aska, she may be involved in this somehow.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Thank you, Gwen."
<Sara> <Liana> Calling... huh.
<DeathStar> *Celsius smiles at Miyuki*
<Luci> Talia> "Summoners. Calling Celsuius copies probably?"
<Sathen> Maeryn> I'll stay with Gwen and the little one, less moving means less warmth lost.
<Sara> * Liana looks at Vyvy with some confusion, considering the circumstances of Selena's birth and how far out of their way they went to avoid that at the time
<DeathStar> 6* Alita would feel more like the hole that they could in the world into the spirit world. Likely why Kalam said to come here*
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Hm. I'll accompany if you wish to look into the source once the conversation over, Cel?
<Xanatos> <Simon> Calling....hm.
<Luci> Alita> "Hrm... that's... really strange."
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy blinks at Liana. "That's some look. What?"
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "...what do you sense?"
<Luci> Alita> "It feels like the same hole that we used to enter the spirit world. More prominent?"
<DeathStar> *Shion leans back, sipping tea, while Isis plays with the cubs*
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "The one at the Hapian palace?"
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Yes. The Summoni here are part of the source of the worlds being linked.
<Luci> Alita> "The Empire. I didn't feelthe one at the Palace."
<DeathStar> <Shion> Well, we do have a meeting with Kalam set up. Kalam gave some information last time. Something about guardians
<Luci> Alita> "This is... I suppose that's why they chose this place? Perhaps the barrier between realms is weak here naturally."
<Xanatos> <Simon> Hopefully she can tell us more information.
<DeathStar> *she tells Liana, to catch her up*
<DeathStar> <Sylph> First I heard about it
<Luci> * Alita nods. "We'll have to ask. I can only feel any of this because I know what to look for."
<Sara> * Ellie tilts her head curiously
<Xanatos> <Simon> I wouldn't care to avoid going back into the spirit realm again.
<Luci> Alita> "Apparently I touch upon mana directly instead of asking the spirits for it."
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "We had best hear Kalam out then."
<DeathStar> <Shion> Then lets go.
<DeathStar> -TIME HOP-
<DeathStar> 6* After a surprisingly round about way, they find themselves in the upper towers and not in the main offices where the three spiriralists rule the area. It seems Kalam is hiding things, because they are in her quarters
<DeathStar> 6* Shion looks around, finding things rather sparce
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy leans around Shion, peering at her. "Makes sense, she is oft traveling."
<DeathStar> 6* Sylph floats around, peering out the window
<DeathStar> 6* Kalam nods to Miyuki
<DeathStar> <Kalam> Hello, head mistress
<Luci> * Alita seems deep in thought, Talia riding on her shoulder.
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> hello Kalam
<Sathen> *Mykel bows his head to Kalam once again*
<DeathStar> <Kalam> I know a few of you informed you last time, so I suppose I should just go over it again to update you quickly
<Sara> * Ellie doesn't bow her head, because Sylph is probably on top of it
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> please do
<DeathStar> *She sits in a chair, and motions at a few chairs and beds. Celsius wanders quietly, while Shion, Isis, and Gwen sits*
<DeathStar> <Kalam> A lot of this is second hand, since we learned around a thousand years again, and from Aska
<Luci> * Talia hops in Gwen's lapand Alita takes a seat.
<Xanatos> 6* Simon stands behind those sitting, arms crossed. He listens quietly to Kalam.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *takes a seat*
<Sathen> *Mykel sits by Alita and rubs her back*
<DeathStar> <Kalam> The three original spirits came into existence, found themselves with consciousness and began to make land and all that, which we called the spirit realm, and the two, Aska and Shade, made light and dark and land, with Void the mediator. soon they made life, which people today consider the first life. However something happened and something killed them - that was the arrival of the comet 25 years ago, even though records have them 12,000 years ago
<Luci> * Talia's eyes cross.
<DeathStar> <Kalam> So you had your president having her power, though she was not aware it, being out of it, and that other power, and the spirits, likely also born, just sooner. I don't pretend to know why time went faster for them
<DeathStar> <Kalam> Maybe distance
<DeathStar> <Kalam> Anyway, the spirit realm became slowly tainted and twisted due to the comet, and so the spirits moved to the land you see now. And seeded it and over the 12,000 years ago spirits began to appear, some from the toxic spirit realm, some from this
<DeathStar> <Kalam> Speed up today, around 1,000 years ago, the mages were being wasted out. So some of this were looking for a way to escape from the Legionares. They somehow escaped to the spirit realm and were changed
<DeathStar> <Kalam> So we our group was put in charge of going to the spirit realm of dealing with them
<Luci> * Alita tilts her head curiously.
<DeathStar> <Kalam> Of never letting the mages escape to this realm again
<Sathen> Mykel> It would seem that at least one of them made their way past your best efforts.
<DeathStar> <Kalam> It seems so. I think I finally have an idea
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "...what did the magi do exactly? And what is the different between these who were driven to the spirit realm and the ones of the present day?"
<DeathStar> <Kalam> The ones today are like the ones in the past, only weaker. They are ... *she searches for her words*
<DeathStar> <Kalam> They are like ancestors of the ones who were being hunted out but weren't driven into the spirit realm
<Sathen> Mykel> Ideals, goals and what they're willing to do to achieve them?
<Xanatos> 6* Simon rubs his face slowly.
<DeathStar> <Kalam> But survived
<Luci> Alita> "Why are they kidnapping people and what are the devices for though?"
<DeathStar> <Kalam> And so they made their own Magi Order
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "...so what excatly have they become... and what do they intend?"
<DeathStar> <Kalam> Well, to use enough power to bust through. To find those with enough power. You see, I said the spirit realm is toxic. The spirit realm is basically this realm, but a realm that is spiritial. But it was twisted. Still it can produce new spirits. Weaker ones these days
<DeathStar> <Kalam> The spirit realm can be used as a weapon
<DeathStar> <Kalam> Looking at you, a few of you have that taint
<Sathen> Mykel> Do you know if there is a way to remove that taint? *looks between them all* What taint, and who?
<Sara> * Ellie frowns at the word 'taint'
<Luci> Alita> "They seemed to be targetting the nobility of each realm for this/"
<DeathStar> <Kalam> What is the one spirit that I don't have?
<Sara> <Ellie> Death?
<DeathStar> <Kalam> Perhaps. *she muses* But I think you all eradicated that
<Luci> Alita> "WHat spirit don't you have?"
<DeathStar> <Kalam> No, you all use another spirit that I actually never had time to get and you found before me
<DeathStar> <Kalam> Celsius
<Luci> * Alita blinks. "She did say she felt weird being here."
<Luci> Alita> "And I felt the void that came with a tear in the realms like we found in the Daemon Realm before saving Karen."
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki makes a face but nods
<Luci> Alita> "She's somehow connected to this tainted realm?"
<DeathStar> <Kalam> Celsius from my observations is a damaged spirit. Likely meant to be sent out to corrupt others
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *raises a brow*
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki hugs Celsius
<Luci> Alita> "She's barely able to hold a conversation... let alone corrupt someone."
<Sathen> *Mykel muses about this*
<DeathStar> *Celsius beams at Miyuki*
<DeathStar> <Kalam> *she rubs her chin* I'd say that can be a double end sword from my studies. She is tied to the spirit realm, and gape. The three spirits came from this location and they scattered out
<DeathStar> <Kalam> Aska to her location, Shade further down, and then Void to his location further south
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki wiggles Celsius
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> how could you think so poorly of this face
<Luci> * Alita muses. "Kalam... when were you taken?"
<DeathStar> <Kalam> They always ask the age
<Luci> * Alita giggles a bit. "Not like that. We umm... noticed the markings on Karen. She was in the focal point of the device."
<Sathen> *Mykel arches an eyebrow but stays quiet*
<DeathStar> <Kalam> From what I'm told, I came from another world
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "...headmistress... please..."
<DeathStar> *Celsius paws*
<DeathStar> <Kalam> Far before some of you were born. Back when Liana's grandfather was a bit younger
<Luci> Alita> *she tilts her head again* "You don't know when you got your markings?"
<DeathStar> <Kalam> I was young. *she shrugs* Anyway
<DeathStar> <Kalam> It's just a suggestion. It's up to you
<Luci> Alita> "So this isn't the first time in a thousand years they've tried this."
<DeathStar> <Kalam> go into the spirit realm with Celsius
<Sara> * Ellie looks at Sylph
<Sathen> Mykel> Other world? Do you mean the world that the Headmistress is from?
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki brushed Cel and huffs at Sasha
<DeathStar> <Kalam> You can use her to try cleans the spirit realm, or at least give her a blow
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> The one that I'm from?
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy tilts her head.
<Luci> * Alita sits back, since it seems Kalam is dead set on this chain of thought.
<DeathStar> <Kalam> I have no idea. I was young when I came here, and you were both not here when I was here
<Xanatos> <Simon> I assume you don't remember anything about the other place?
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> My true name was Nagisa Zhenmei.
<Luci> Alita> "I thought everyone who came over was accounted for..."
<Nyaomi> * She leans toward Kalam
<DeathStar> <Kalam> *she just pats*
<Luci> * Alita looks over at Miyuki. "If she came before you did, she had to leave after you did, right?"
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> There was a dichotomy of time displacement, if you recall. Perhaps because she was hear long before us, she was not yet missing over there.
<DeathStar> <Shion> *she turns to Isis and Miyuki* So
<DeathStar> <Shion> Do we want to risk dragging Celsius over there to help her?
<Luci> * Alita nods. "So she may be someone they knew, but didn't come over when they did."
<DeathStar> <Sylph *she peers Ellie down* I can't believe the other spirits never told us
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> It wasn't relevant to the present-- as far as they knew. Not all of the details and circumstances of the spirit realm are known even to the Great Spirits.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "...so then...where did Death come from?"
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> I have a theory on that
<Luci> Alita> "If there's a tear here already, crossing over won't be hard."
<DeathStar> <Gwen> *leans back with Selena, both bored and thumb waring*
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Master said the spirit realm could be weaponized, and they've been 'jailing' the mage order inside.
<Sara> * Liana looks at Celsius with concern for her
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> It's not unheard that they might have created it to lash out.
<Xanatos> <Simon> Is the tear supposed to be here?
<DeathStar> <Celsius> ... *she tilts her head*
<DeathStar> <Kalam> The tear is inside the temple. I will give you the master key I stole if you wish to go inside
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> It was even capable of killing or disassembling the 'uncorrupted' Great spirits.
<Luci> Alita> "It seems Kalam is dead set on us attempting this."
<Sathen> Mykel> Mistress Kalam, just how long can one survive within the Spirit Realm before it affects them?
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> Cel...do you want to do this?
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy makes a face since it had happened to Shade
<DeathStar> <Kalam> Since we are trained to battle you, I will give you some liquids to drink. You can last a day to try to destroy the taint once and forever
<DeathStar> *it
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "...what about your peers here? Would it place you in danger once we enter?"
<DeathStar> <Celsius> I do..want to see who is calling for me
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy squeezes Celsius' hand.
<Xanatos> <Simon> That would certainly be better than our last trip.
<DeathStar> <Kalam> I fear I will be fired in a best case scenario
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki nods
<Luci> Alita> "What affect will cleansing the taint have on this reality?"
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> then we'll go together
<Luci> Talia> "Kalam join Academy!"
<Sara> * Liana stands at Celsius side and nods, too
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Cel, no matter what happens or what we learn, you've been a little sister to me, and that won't change.
<DeathStar> <Kalam> None here, but spirits might be happier to go there then staying here all the time to be used as tools
<Luci> Alita> "That sounds like a good thing to me."
<DeathStar> *Celsius beams and claps*
<DeathStar> <Sylph> I guess I'll go back in, too
<DeathStar> *Sylph hides in ellie's clothing*
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Kalam, we left some loved ones here. Please watch out for them."
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Stay close to Ellie, and Cel, to me, okay?
<Luci> Alita> "If we make it through this, I have some questions for you about my relation to the spirits. Vyvy informed me on some interesting facts."
<DeathStar> <Kalam> I will
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Master, you better stay safe. It's kind of obvious you're stepping on some toes here.
<Luci> * Alita rises and looks to the others.
<DeathStar> *Isis gets eldest kids to look after them, ready to follow after her
<DeathStar> <Kalam> I will. Follow after me
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> If you wind up in a situation, please call on Shade or Aska for help.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "When will be the most opportune time to enter the temple?"
<Sathen> *Mykel nods and will rise after Alita* I guess we're doing this then.
<DeathStar> 6* Gwen and Kalam stay with Selena and Spira, while Kalam leads them down to the temple, where the other two leaders are unconscious. Celsius pokes them
<DeathStar> <Shion> Now it seems
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Eh?
<Luci> * Alita nods and Talia leaps to Alita's shoulder and they follow.
<Xanatos> 6* Simon kneels by them.
<Sara> * Ellie shakes her head slightly but moves to follow
<Xanatos> <Simon> Did you do this?
<Nyaomi> * A green-eyed, white fox peers at Isis from one of the windows, then drops down as they leave, moving over to the kids.
<Sathen> *Mykel eyes the other leaders, then glances back up where Kalam is staying*
<DeathStar> <Kalam> Yes. I assumed your answer
<DeathStar> <Isis> *she tells her children to follow at a safe distance, peering at Miyuki
<Xanatos> <Simon> I think 'fired' is your best case.
<DeathStar> <Isis> Ready?
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki takes her hand and gingerly squeezes it
<Luci> Talia> "Kalam Academy's latest teacher then?"
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "....maybe you could beg takign the initiative..."
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> as I'll ever be
<DeathStar> <Kalam> I should contact my girlfriend
<DeathStar> <Kalam> In case I am jailed for 100 years
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy grins at Kalam
<Luci> Alita> "There's a special someone?"
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Shimia would have us rescue you.
<Xanatos> <Simon> Good idea. 6* He stands upright and moves over toward the tear, peering it over, does it feel like the previous one?
<DeathStar> 6* She turns the key and unlocks a door; on the other side is a swirling gate
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> I guess it's a good thing you didn't have me join the Spiritualists after all.
<Xanatos> 6* Simon blinks.
<DeathStar> <Kalam> Indeed. Good luck all f you
<Luci> Alita> "Well... at least I won'tbe burning Mana to open the way this time."
<Xanatos> <Simon> This is much more stabilized that the previous one.
<DeathStar> *Isis squeezes her hand back, peering at the gate, while Celsius peers at it
<Luci> Alita> "I-I opened it without knowing how! Give a girl a break."
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "...I wodner if they have been experimenting on it."
<Sathen> *Mykel looks at the swirling gate* I'm still worried about what this will result in.
<DeathStar> <Sylph> Scary *she says from breast of Ellie*
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy walks forward and through
<Luci> * Alita shrugs and heads through.
<Nyaomi> * The fox coralles the kids and sits in front of them.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *takes a breath and then starts through*
<Sathen> *Mykel moves to follow through the gate*
<Luci> Talia> "Gots drinks?"
<Sara> * Ellie blinks at Sylph hiding there
<Xanatos> 6* Simon moves after the group, pulling his spear out.
<DeathStar> 6* Sylph peeks out of her pocket, riding
<DeathStar> <Sylph> Onward
<DeathStar> 6* As they step through, things twist upside down without throwing them and then the world is now foggy but looks the same, but empty
