    Dr. Atrium listens to the story with his eyes shut, seeing everything that it being to in his mind. When they are done talking, he takes a bowl of the soup that Jian made. He walks over to the table where everyone is.

    "I have been thinking RD. I don't think his is a good idea. I know that if we do put the Soultrap back on Clarent, that Lady Dahaka WILL just take her over again. Clarent is weak so she can't fight back and. to only that, since she HAS been possessed before by her, it makes it easier for her to be taken over. I think the risks out way what little good could come. I need to think...I am going back upstairs..."

    Doc takes his bowl and walks into the bedroom and sits right next to Clarent.

    "Well well well, doesnt seem like those two were portraying me in the best light. I wasn't even there to build airplanes...oh pardon me, I mean flying machines. Come to think of it, I never found out what they wanted me to build. Whatever it was I'm glad I never made it I guess...wait...did the doctor is the doctor going to bring back Lady Dahaka...no no no, I ought to have faith in the doctor that he knows what he's doing...it shouldnt hurt to be prepared just in case things go awry."

    "Sharpe, mon frere, I found a sword just yesterday. However, it is somewhat dull. Would you kindly lend me something to...uh....Sharpe-en it."

    Sharpe shakes his head and blinks his eyes, trying to process the sheer amount of questions thrown at him.

    "Wha- ok, uh, you know i really didn't think about those other nobles... I kinda just thought about getting the mission done, the place was unnerving. Now, regarding the whole fact of the matter that there's possibly a conspiracy among the hierarchy of this place... that opens up memories of old wounds. I would gladly like to get to the bottom of this, even if it's more businesses than the local governance. However, I do have to say, i think the escort mission merits some attention. Usually people who post that kind of stuff want to get that done fast or soon, and it's a vast inconvenience to them to put it off. So if we could at least get that out of the way, I'd be glad.

    Now, regarding Clarent, I remember she did have the soul trap to begin with when i saw her the day she went missing, so yes, it might be tied to her in that way. But I need to ask, is there perchance an alternative, say, procure another soul trap? I don't know if these things are interchangeable in any way, but I can imagine there must be some sort of way to replace ones that are damaged beyond repair."

    He nods over to Jian, who's cooked another meal.

    "Ah, good, more of that delicious food you always make, thanks man." He says and walks over, taking a bowl and eating it standing up. And yes, Jack, I can work on your blade, though I don't know if I'll be as good as RD, I'm more the type to keep my gear in shape, and my stuff's a bit more complicated, it merits a kind of knowledge."

    Airgetlam blushes as RD kisses her hand.

    "Oh my..." She mumbles.

    "I-it's Airgetlam, Airgetlam Whyte. A pleasure - and yes, I can feel that, I can feel in that arm like I can my other." She realizes he implied they were an item.

    "W-wait, no, we're not together, not a couple. It's more like we're siblings."

    She looks at Sharpe with a confused expression.

    "You never told him about me did you? I mean, you were in the army but still, I thought maybe you might have said something. In any case, we're not together like that, just to reiterate. Oh, and it might not be so apparent, but I do the stealth work for the group, if you need an infiltrator, I'm who you should find, though my cloaking device is in disrepair, so i have to make due with traditional methods - nothing bad about those though."

    She walks over to the kitchen and takes a bowl for herself.

    "Thanks Jian, and I don't believe that even made a dent in how much RD bought, so we should be good on food for a while, just need a way to keep it fresh." She walks back to where she was sitting and gazes back upon RD, then breaks eye contact to look back at Sharpe.

    "May I ask, did you get more than one bounty?"

    Richard grins a bit mischievously at the nervous, blushing Airgetlam, “heh, she’s cute, I’ll give her that.” “Like I said he speaks so highly of you and so passionately, even when we were in Straylight together he often spoke of you, so proud, almost as if you were in a relationship, or perhaps more like a close relative. He never mentioned which though, so I figured I'd ask.” He then gently releases her hand, placing it upon her lap and wondering if it was special in some way, “How did she acquire such a thing…? And she can actually feel though it? Is it some kind of organic metal? I wonder if channeling protraction through it is possible...” but these were questions for another time, at the moment he turned his attention only to the beauty in front of him. “As an added plus…” He turned his gaze so he could look her in the eyes “… you look simply stunning when you blush.”

    RD then turns and takes a bowl of the Noodle soup. He considers it carefully, vegetables, noodles, eggs and some meat, a simple meal, nothing too snazzy, but from just this simple dish he could tell the young man had some skill. Jian was easily better than him at cooking, RD considered asking the man for some tips, but now was not the time. “This isn’t half bad! Thank you very much!” He said after clumsily slurping up a few of the noodles and biting into a bit of the eggs within the broth. He wasn’t used to dishes like this, and is pretty bad at using chopsticks, but he was determined to make an attempt nonetheless.

    After a bit of chewing he offhandedly mentions: “That tune you were humming while we were chatting was nice, where’d you hear it from?” He was mildly trying to chat up the man, and RD himself loves music, it always helped calm him, so he was hoping a common interest may help open at least a bit of communication between the two. “Oh and by the way, the doc was saying you may know someone who could help Clarent, any news?” He continues, honestly attempting to not only start a conversation with Jian, but find another way to help Clarent as well; If at all possible he didn’t really want to take on some ancient powerful vampire spirit possessing the body of an innocent, he would be hard pressed to kill someone the group seemed to have gone through so much effort to protect, but he would if he had to.

    Richard then listened and watched a bit solemnly as the Doc climbed the stairs, most likely to attend to Clarent still sick in her bed. She didn't seem to be doing too hot when he occupied the room earlier while arguing with the good Doc, she didn't even stir although they were practically yelling right next to her. “If nothing changes soon, I’m not sure she’ll even recover at this rate Doc, so please consider it… Ya gonna feed her some of your meal? It’d be good to get something in ‘er; magical or not, she’ll need some kind of nutrition ta fight her sickness.” He took in more of the delicious food as he listened to his ol' bud Sharpe, attempting to consume it quickly, before it got cold.

    After swallowing more of the meal RD paused and responded: “It’s definitely plausible… if the soul trap didn’t have a kind of enchantment or anything on it before it was possessed by this spirit; but assuming Clarent needs it, it definitely does. I mean she was wearing it before she got snatched, so she must’ve needed it right? So in any case, we’d have to figure out the enchantment on the trap and apply it to another soul trap… But if the soul gem actually was housing Clarent’s soul prior to her being possessed… well as you can guess that could be a bit difficult. We might be able to separate the two souls and cleanse the trap of the malicious spirit but that might be difficult as well… Same with shifting Clarent’s soul from this trap to another.” He mused aloud, he was no professional on soul traps but he had a pretty good knowledge of them from his travels in Soiyam, added to his own personal experience, unfortunately he had no idea if what he was saying is possible. “… unfortunately point-man all of that is just theory, I have no idea if it can actually be done. We can look into it but I don’t know how much time the lil’ lady has left.” He shrugged, honestly at a loss as to what other options were possible, and to a further extent, plausible to pursue, given the condition Clarent is in.

    “As for the issue regarding this conspiracy out weighing the bounties, I figure we may even be able to collect info on the city at the same time, so it hopefully won’t be a problem as long as they don’t send us off to another country or something, I have a feeling your escapades at Castle Vikurr may have slowed their progress somewhat, should buy us some time to handle what needs to be done before they can make any serious moves. Someone’s gonna have to stay with Clarent though, and I honestly feel we should handle her situation first and foremost, would be a bad hit to mah conscience knowing she’s struggling and we’re off earning some pocket-change. Still if you wanna take care of it now, we can get started as soon as we’re done eating.”

    RD then turns to jack “I’ve been known to do a bit of work here and there as a blacksmith, helps when ya need to do a bit of maintenance, or earn a bit of cash on the side.” He grins playfully. “I’ll take a look at it, if all it needs is some sharpening I should be able to get it done no problem.” He then turns back to Sharpe, “Want me to give yours the once-over as well?”

    He then returns to chowing down, finishing his bowl by using both hands to take a long sip of the broth. “MMMM~ so good!” He has a huge grin on his face, first time in a while he's had such a fine dish.

    Jian nods a little once again, seeing that the others enjoy his meal. He turns back to RD asking him the question about the tune but he can't help and blush a little, as he totally got carried away, it seems.

    "It... It's... An old tune from where I came from, l-lost hopes and dreams, I guess...", he says, looking away in a slight shame, eating a bit of his soup. He's a bit embarrassed that he got that carried away in front of someone he can't really put his finger on yet.

    Having a plausible explanation for Clarent's current state though, he can't help but listen closely, as it is intriguing enough to hear what might be the case. On one hand he's happy that the healer might not be required after alll, on the other hand though, he's a bit concerned about the current cause for her state. One way or another, she's not in a situation that can be left unattended.

    He finishes his bowl in his typical haste, as he tends to eat noodles rather fast. He sets the bowl aside, flipping out his dagger, pulling out his last charm that is now his own, cutting along the edges a bit, he's trying to make a round one with a pointy end at the bottom this time to improve his work on making them. As he's the weakest member of the group, he decides to have the others make out what to do, as he's simply being a help in whatever situation was given, rather than being the one giving orders anyway. While he listens, he realizes that cutting with the family's blade gets harder every time, his blade's not the sharpest anymore after all.

    Dr. Atrium sits there thinking about what happened. Clarent was better for a while but why did she get sick all over again. He stands up and puts his hands over her and uses Protraction to cure every inch of her body. When he was done, he was slightly dizzy from the amount of life he took in to use the spell. Once the dizziness passed he just stood there staring at her.

    "Ok, this should work...If only for a while. When you wake, I will get some food for you."

    Doc starts to the window when he sees Mitsuki. He walks over to her and starts to pet her. As he strokes her Snow White hair, he looks into her eyes. One is blue and one is green. His eyes then widen and he holds her out at arms length.

    "I-I know how that mystery girl knew all about us even though we have never seen or met us....it's because she....she is you."

    Doc slowly puts Mitsuki on the ground.

    "This explains everything. How it seemed like you understood me, how you have been able to always find us and how you seemed to never get hurt. You are a very powerful magic user! Please, if this is true, then change into your human form. I-I need your help and the only one I can turn to. Hold on."

    Doc gets up and locks the door and makes the room soundproof again. When he is done, he walks back to her.

    "There, no one can hear us and the door is locked. I promise not to tell any ether. I just need help...please."

    "Oh Richard and Air. Ugh, looks like the most cliche love at first sight in the most cliche romance novel. OI, why dontchya just kiss already."

    "Lot of story telling, it seems, but Sharpe forgot to mentions the doctor. Yes, poor chap was bitten by Hitomi. He's had symptoms, even turned into some sort of fairy beast at one point. I bought him a book about fairy infections, and he hasn't mentioned it recently so I just assumed he cured it."

    "should I tell him...well it's not as if I'm planning on hiding it...being open with him might establish trust...trust will get him to reveal more about his curse."

    "Speaking of other things Sharpe left out...uh... well I guess there' not much of a right time for this."

    Jack make sure he has enough room without knocking anything over and transforms into his angel form. He looked up at his semi circle halo while grasping his single wing and neglecting the bloody lonesome stump where his other wing is supposed to be.

    "I guess taking on this form is much faster way to prepare just in case the doctor decides to awaken Lady Dahaka than waiting for Sharpe to Sharpe-en the sword."

    "It's somewhat complicated to explain...what's your reaction Richard?"

    Mitsuki cocks her furry head as the Doc talks at her. Her eyes glisten a little as he looks at her. She lets out a cute meow as he puts her down and walks over to the door and when he walks back up to her she begins to circle around him, pushing her little body against him like a normal cat would. She repeats this process a few times. After a few rounds the girl steps out from behind Doc, just as expected and looks at him with a half smile. "I suppose I was too obvious." she says. Just like before she is wearing her armor and robes, but her hat is missing, revealing her cat ears at the top of her head. Her one blue and one green eye shifting as her pupils focus into the ones of a normal human being. She runs her hand down doc's back and leaves his side to walk up to Clarent.
    "I've been monitoring her. She's been relatively stable but I hadn't taken into consideration that it may have to do with the amulet. When I first saw her in the city it was empty and unnecessary. It served no purpose but decoration... So I hadn't had the time or will to check for myself if anything had changed. Hmm."
    She leads her hand to her chin and bends over Clarent. Putting her palm on Clarent's forehead.
    "Where are you thinking of transfering it to? It seems damaged so I don't think you'd have much time during the transfer, lest something go wrong and that creature inside escapes into the hearts of those left wanting. I don't know any magic goldsmith in town. Funny... seeing how this would be the second best place to seek to sell a skill like that... well... nay. The third- Fourth. Well... it doesn't matter."

    She gets up and leans against the bedpost pondering. "Oh. There could be a group that could help you. But... probably not in the way you'd like." She reaches into one of her pockets and pulls out a empty scroll of thick paper and unfolds it on a nearby surface. Mitsuki then waves her hand over it and a vague imprint of the city map shows. "In the far northern part of town there exists another high-class district, such as this. It's a lot bigger, and less casually protected. But there is an underground maze of sorts, I'd have to explain the details once you've heard me out. Therein that maze is a gang of black market dealers and thugs that deal in the trade of souls. The only smithmagus I know happens to be part of that group of bandits. Your group could infiltrate through whatever means most suitable, may that be knocking some heads together or playing it off cool, and get in contact with the smith. He may be able to forge a new amulet, or even fix the current one."

    Sharpe gives RD a glare and stops eating for a moment to address something.

    "I don't recall talking about her too much, I think I mentioned her during one of the off-breaks or something, but I was too engaged to really talk, nor think of anything besides the mission. I guess I might've."

    He eats a bit more while RD explains the issues surrounding the business of the soul trap, and puts his bowl down for a moment.

    "Yeah, looks like we're at a crossroads with this one. I'd honestly like to get that escort at least out of the way though, some folks ain't too patient. You may definitely come if you'd like. Air of course, you're welcome. Your keen eyesight proves invaluable. I'd prefer if Jian and Doc stayed here, their combined medical and botanical knowledge would prove invaluable to Clarent. Jack, you can... go wherever, but did you really have to go into that... angel form of yours, you could probably have just told the guy and if he didn't believe you, show him. besides, what if someone saw you through the window? Meh, it's whatever I guess." He turns his attention back to RD, and looks down at his sword, then back to him raising an eyebrow.

    "While I appreciate your offer, are you sure you know how to handle this particular blade? It's much more advanced than others, unparalleled in cutting power. If you want to look at it, be my guest, but if you don't know how to go about it, don't attempt anything." He says, reaching to take his sword off his belt, but pauses and feels a weight in his chest. He wills his hands to work, but they do not, until he gives himself a push and he takes the sword off his hip and slowly hands it to RD.

    "Be gentle, friend."

    Airgetlam blushes a deeper shade of red than before. She cocks her head at Sharpe.

    "So you got two jobs... and you DID talk about me... no wonder he thinks we're an item... Well, I guess I'll come with, not much I can do to help Clarent's condition, considering how much I know of protraction or medicine. Just let me get changed." She says and walks up the stairs into her room.

    I really hope that RD character doesn't have a thing for me... She ponders and she redresses her clothing into her dress and attire of the day before. Even though it could do with some cleaning it is presently the most protective thing she has, but then again, it is rather bright, and she could do with something more fitting and durable. Perhaps later she'll go shop for a shirt and pants of black or grey hue, in order to better blend in with her surroundings at night. She pulls her cloak over hear head and retrieves her short sword and her gear sack, as well as the timed cloaking device.

    She makes her way back downstairs and retrieves her crossbow, along with opening up the cylinder and slotting in a few iron bolts, replacing the syringes. She looks down the weapon's scope and points it out the window, adjusting the image and magnification until she finds the setting to be just right, then turns back to Sharpe and RD.

    "I'm ready whenever. You said you wanted to do an escort?"

    RD listens to Jian speak of his home and lost hopes and dreams. He supposes that just about everyone can relate to that feeling, even if he himself doesn’t quite know it. He had been a part of fighting his whole life, he was living his dream for the most part, and any bumps along the way were just that, bumps. They could slow him down but they never quite stopped him from pursuing his own hopes and dreams.

    After RD’s explanation and overall analysis of Clarent’s situation the young man went back to carving, with a rather rustic knife. It definitely needed some sharpening, Jian looked as if he was struggling as he attempted to mold the small wooden statuette. “If ya want Jian I can do a bit of work on your carving knife as well” he figured he might as well, seeing as he was already working on the other men’s blades. But first, could you tell me what’s going on with that doctor you were looking for? Has he gone missing as well? You seem to be ignoring the Doc and I whenever we ask about him… RD asked raising an eyebrow rather quizzically, if Jian couldn’t find the person he was looking for that was one more option they lacked in helping the girl, and Richard needed the info in case they needed to keep an eye out for this specialist.

    Jack then explained a few details regarding the Doc’s condition, nothing new though, it was all information RD learned earlier. “I really might want to let this guy know that some people don’t want their secrets revealed. I mean the info is legit, I’ve already confirmed it myself, still, there’s the issue of privacy…” As he mused this Jack moved to a slightly more open area in the room and suddenly spouted a wing!

    It instantly grabbed his attention, instinctively he lowered his stance and gripped the handle of his blade. He quickly observed this new form Jack had taken on; “Haven’t seen anything like this before! One wing, half a halo. Looks like some kinda poor excuse for an angel… I can feel he’s a bit stronger too. Some kinda combat form?” After a few moments of letting Jack’s question set in he answered “I’m definitely a bit surprised. It’s unsettling, that’s for sure. I’m guessing you’re stronger in this form or something?” RD had never really believed much in gods or goddesses, he felt that faith was better used believing in yourself and the people around you. So he of course had a bit of an aversion to being in the presence of a possible messenger of a god, he’s honestly still in doubt, convinced this is some sort of experiment in protraction or some other study gone wrong. “What exactly are you and how’d you get like that? …Geh I’m not even sure where to begin with you…” As he speaks he begins to relax somewhat, taking his hand off the grip of his blade and rubbing his eyes with that hand, resting the other hand on his hip, still trying to comprehend what was going on here. “The good Doc is possibly turning into some kinda fairy beast and Jack’s got some kinda partial transformation going on… Honestly Air’s Silver hand is tame in comparison…” He looks towards Sharpe “…Any MORE surprises point-man? You got a third arm or some kinda hidden lineage I knew nothing about like being the king of all of Glypnier or something?” He glanced back towards Jack “Anyway man I guess it’s good to know you have some kinda battle form I guess?”

    He looked up to see Sharpe mean-mugging him a bit as he hands RD his blade, as a man of Teyness RD understood his hesitation as he slowly and carefully hands him the blade.  “Guess I’ll ease off a bit on the smooth talk, seems point-man doesn’t much appreciate it…” “Hmm lemme take a quick look at it…” He said as he slowly unsheathed the blade, marveling its absurdly sharp edge. It was a katana, which was a bit rare and exotic but nothing he hadn’t handled before, but the edge of this particular sword looked as though it was an amazing accomplishment of science and engineering, “I-I can’t sharpen this with any ol’ whetstone man. This… this edge…. I’ve never seen anything like it… But I’ll treat it a bit.” RD then removes some oil, a cloth and some wiping paper out of his pack and carefully wipes off any excess oils before applying a bit of his own mineral oil using his own cloth and replacing the blade in its sheath. “It’s a fantastic weapon but I don’t have anything on hand to sharpen it point-man, my apologies.” He finishes just as Airgetlam descends the stairs after changing into something more appropriate to do a mission in.

    “I agree with leaving the doc and Jian here if they know more about how to care for Clarent. Let’s get this done.”

    Jian looks back at RD, then looking up for a moment.

    "I don't recall any of you asking... I have not found him.", he says, not sure on how to feel about him asking if a healer can't fix it anyway. He shifts his view back to RD after he was offered to have his blade get a fix. "It's... A family piece. It's been through a lot, and while I am not too good with combat, I feel like it can serve it's purpose with having me carve with it... Not sure if repairing it will remain with it being a pure family piece though... It even has the family's marking in it", he says, showing off the side of the blade, having his famly-name showing on it.

    He's unsure of giving it to RD, it's a family piece after all and losing it would be quite painful for him. He makes a few more cuts with it in the meantime, trying to come to a conclusion. One last cut and he looks up for a second, sighing. He puts the charm into a pouch and sets the knife aside on the counter. Jian will leave it up to fate on how RD will react with him leaving it there as he personally can't decide on giving it up or not.

    "I'll check on Clarent, I guess", he says with a sigh, then slowly finding his way up to the door to her room, knocking. He announces that he's coming in, then pulling the doorhandle. The door's locked and Jian instantly grows suspicious, knocking again.

    "What could possibly be so secret that you'll have to lock the door to keep us out? I just want to check on Clarent...", he says, knocking a third time. Jian's extremely suspicious now, what is the Doc hiding from them? He stays at the door, waiting for him to finally open up.

    Dr. Atrium jumps a bit when Mitsuki rubs his back as she come from behind him. He knew he was right, he just wasn't ready for it. He listens her as she tells him about the underground gang. Even before she was finished talking, he knew what he had to do.

    "Thank you for the help. Can you lead me there? I would rather not involve the others in underground business. I will do anything you tell me to, you are the leader."

    Doc looks at he door when he hears the knocks, he turns to tell Mitsuki to change back into a cat but she already has. He can't help be be shocked about how fast she can change forms. Doc walks to the door and unlocks it and let's Jian in.

    "Sorry I was thinking and didn't want anyone to bother me. I think I know that the problem is. If you could watch over her, that would be most helpful. I did a body cure on her so she should be up in a bit but it will only be temporary. I need to go out to the....the market.i will be back."

    Doc watches as Mitsuki walks out of the room. He fallows her out and down the stair where he see everyone. It looks like they are about to go out.

    "I am going out to the market. I think I have figured out how to cure her. Have fun doing what ever it is you guys are going to do."

    Do then quick ducks out of the house and fallows Mitsuki to where ever she goes.

    After his exhausting journey from Na'Hog, Lox had finally arrived in the town of Recudor by way of a horse drawn cart. A man delivering groceries to the town had agreed to give him a ride for the last couple miles for a small price, Lox had happily paid the man as he figured he would have enough left over for some small supplied upon his arrival to the town. Once he was there he hopped off the edge of the cart and waved to the man with a big smile on his face, Lox was thrilled! The city he had spent the better part of a year preparing for, and months traveling to, and he was finally there getting ready to bring all his gathered knowledge of runes to the surely to be grateful citizens. With his big goofy grin he began traveling through the town, looking around at all the merchants. After a bit of window shopping Lox finally stopped upon seeing a merchant selling some of the supplies he required, a brush, an ink well, and some various books. He didn't need the books for now so he turned to the merchant and simply stated, "Hello sir, I'd like a brush and ink well please!" The merchant stared at the overly excited man with a dull look in his eye for a moment before responding in an equally dull tone. "Uh...Yeah sure...that'll be Thirty bronze coins guy..." Lox's smile sunk a bit as he held up the small bag he had kept the coins in, twenty coins left... guess things are a bit more expensive here. Lox sighs and looks back to the man, then looks away in embarrassment. "Uh...how much for just the ink?" Again the merchant sighs. He grabs the ink well and holds it out in front of Lox as he states, "fifteen coins for just the ink then..." Lox lets out a small sigh and hands over the fifteen coins before taking the well and walking off muttering to himself. "Okay not the greatest start, but I can work with this!"

    After some more travelling through the town Lox finally found a small spot not occupied by any merchants, though a bit secluded from the general populous, still he figured he had to start from somewhere. With a small sigh Lox pulled off his backpack, and set it on the ground before him, digging into the now fairly empty bag and pulling out the dagger he had brought along with him. With a slight smirk on his face he dipped the tip of his finger into the ink well, without a brush he was going to have to make due. A few small paintings on the flat of the blade a spiral with an upside down V shape near the top, and a circle, containing a smaller circle inside of it towards the bottom. He stood up and looked to the few people around him and in a somewhat cracked, nervous voice attempted to announce. "PEOPLE OF RECUDOR! I BRING TO YOU A NEW WAY TO APPLY YOUR MAGIC! NEED TO ENCHANT A WEAPON FOR CHEAP? I CAN TEACH YOU TO EASILY RUNE YOUR WEAPONS!" Lox grinned and lifted the dagger to the air, and within seconds the blade of the dagger was set ablaze. The people looked to Lox with a look of surprise, and his face began to glow with joy, though just as he was reeling in their interest, the flames died out. Lasting only half a minute at best, the people rolled their eyes and began to disperse, a few muttering random insults as they left. Lox sighed and pulled out his brother's notebook and began skimming the pages muttering as he studies the notebook. "...Great start Lox..."

    Hahahaha, worry not Richard. I am 79% certain there's nothing else out of the ordinary here. Apparently, my long deceased brother has told me that I was once an archangel, but I was crippled by some sort of dark force and struck with amnesia cutting off memory from my passed lives. There's a small chance I've gone mad, but that wouldn't explain this. Last time I checked, it's quite difficult to have hallucinations that others can see."

    Jack is holding his wing, He can't get over the odd unnatural feel of it.

    "Oh, and Jian, I would mend that sword if I were, just chipping in my two cents as they say. Believe me, I'd kill to have something to remember my family by. As long as it reminds you of your love ones, I don't thinking repairing it could take away any sentimental value it has. Even if the blade is replaced one day and the hilt the next, it's still the same in spirit."

    Mitsuki leads the Doc out of the High Class District. "We'll have to do a bit of travel. The quarantine will make things difficult." She says as her little cat feet carry her down the street with the doctor in tow. "It will be a bit difficult to navigate as well." She says, her voice sounding a bit higher pitched in cat form, likely due to the difference in vocal cords, or lack thereof. The two walk down to the docks and get onto a transport boat. A small vessel with only enough room to carry maybe four people. No one is on board, since the vessel is moved by magic, and travels automatically between the stops along the central district which has no docks of its own, relying on the northern and southern districts. "Just on the outskirts of the northern district, somewhere in the forest, is an abandoned church surrounded by a graveyard. It was part of the initial village, back when recudor was a small resource village occupied only by miners and fishers." The boat nudges a bit and creaks as it begins to gently float along the algae riddled walls of the city, keeping it above water. Mitsuki lies down on the side of the boat, hanging one of her paws just above water. "There is a complex system of catacombs underneeth the graveyard said to have housed quite some riches some time ago. When the mine was abandoned due to cave-ins a group of thieves thought to tunnel through to the catacombs and steal their wealth but they were driven out by the undead that plagued the complex before necromancers put them to rest. Both the mine and church as well as its catacombs have lain dormant for many generations but a group of black market dealers and bandits have made an underground fortress in the abandoned sewers. All three, the catacombs, the mines, and the sewers are interconnected through underground tunnels and rooms, and it's said that many people who go inside get lost easily and some never even return." She takes a moment to let that sink in. "The man we are going to visit there is a notorious man. Known as the soul trader by the public, he deals in the trading of souls and soul traps, as well as enchanted small arms like knives, daggers, and sometimes even hand crossbows. He was captured by the Recudor Guards no less than six times, and escaped each time with help of his fellow thugs in the underground."

    Sharpe grunts, a bit of humor rising within his chest.

    "Hey, yeah, it's just a fragment of some of what we got in the higher echelons. We'd have people of all walks of life and all combat styles in there, so you'd see quite an eclectic selection. Lot of talent there as you know as well. In any case I don't like to be without one of my two arms for long. I do actually have the whet stone required for this, but I use it with caution. I know how to maintain it, and keep it operational. You just have to be careful. In any case, are we ready?" He asks. At the same time, Sharpe instinctively pats the spot under his coat where his pistol is, albeit lightly so as not to give away that he's packing some iron.

    Airgetlam nods to Sharpe, but keeps a tab on what she will add onto her response.

    "Yes, I do believe those who are determined to go with you are, however I think I'll go and perform some... espionage. Something seemed a bit fishy about what Doc said, so I'm going to follow him to make sure he doesn't get himself in trouble." She reasons, and she picks up her crossbow that she had lying somewhere within easy reach. She walks out the door and begins walking in the direction that she recalled Doc vaguely going, and proceeds to walk through the market just to make sure maybe if he really was just going to the market. With no sign of him, she turns north, going towards Central Recudor and then heading to the docks. Perhaps he is there and he needed to simply calm his nerves.

    Once she finds herself by the docks, she looks both ways up and down the coast, and notes a small boat without a driver or sorts, and what seems like Doc to be on it. She starts walking in his direction, but keeps her distance, deciding it would be best to simply follow and see what he has planned than to interfere.

    “Heh, I guess that’s true…” RD considers Jack again wondering how sane the man really was if he’s hearing the voice of a dead man, but then considers the fact that his own soul trap speaks to him from time to time. “Hell maybe we’re all a bit crazy” he mutters under his breath.

    He then considers what Jian has to say “So he hasn’t found that doctor… Well that’s not exactly what I hoped to hear; I was hoping the combined knowledge of that doctor and our own good doctor would be enough to at least improve Clarent’s condition somewhat, like helping her regain consciousness so she could at least eat something.” RD thinks to himself as Jian explains the value the knife he was carving with has to him. “Hm. It’s a family heirloom eh? In that case I won’t do anything drastic like replacing the blade, but at this rate this knife is either gonna to stop cutting altogether or it’s gonna end up hurting you instead.” Jian cut at the statuette a few more times before putting the item away and placing his knife on nearby counter and walking off to check up on Clarent. RD watched the man go then turned his attention back to the knife, picking it up and examining the many nicks on the blade as well as well as the family marking Jian had spoken of.

    As he tried to decide what he wanted to do with the heirloom he sees the Doc dash down the stairs and out the door closely tailing a cat, he mentions something in passing about figuring out what’s wrong with the little lady upstairs and needing to head to the market. RD is instantly suspicious “I explained what was wrong though so he already should have known… and why is he going alone in such a hurry…?” He then recognized the gesture from when they used to travel together, the good doctor had done this often, he was trying to go it solo again. “Sonuvahbitch” He quickly growled livid that the argument they had earlier seemed to have gone completely over the man’s head. He placed the knife back down on the counter and quickly moved towards the door past Sharpe and Airgetlam being careful not to bump into them.

    He listens to Airgetlam state her plan to follow the Doc, He’s visibly agitated but cannot deny that going after him stealthily is most likely the best approach. “… Dammit… I agree… He used to do this a lot when we traveled together, he’s definitely lying. Please keep an eye on him, I’d do it myself but he must think he needs to do this alone for some reason or another. Could you do me a favor though, if and when you actually make contact with him, hit him for me? Tell him I said ‘Stop going it alone.’ I can’t believe he still doesn’t trust me after all this time… and let him know that I’m really pissed with him for ignoring what we talked about earlier.” He balls his fists and closes his eyes, trying to keep his rage in check, resisting his urge to follow him himself. He then turns to Jack, “Stay here with Jian and keep an eye on Clarent. I’m honestly worried about her condition, she can’t be left here alone, and you and Jian seem to have people after you, so the less you two are seen in public, the less we’ll have to worry about being hunted, or tailed. Added you seem to have some combat strength from what I’ve seen so far, I don’t know about Jian though, either way I need you two to have each other’s backs in case something happens, like the Doc coming back alone and doing something stupid while no one is watching.” Unfortunately RD knows and considers nothing about the relationship of the two men so he hoped they were on mildly good terms, enough to help each other at least.

    “Let’s go Point-man, lead on. I need something to distract me and take the edge off. I can focus on this job in the mean time. Might as well tell me what the other job is too along the way.” He says as he leaves the building shoving his hands in his pockets and, fuming about the Doc’s actions. “At this rate that man is gonna make me lose my mind.”

    He tilts his head, simply turning his view around as the doc rushes past him.

    "Thinking... Heh, right.", he says, noticing the behaviour being really out of place for it just to be him thinking about stuff. He walks down the stairs sighing. Watching Air and RD talk for a moment, then being pulled aside for a moment to be told that he's going to stay here with Jack, with him then looking to Jack for a second, shrugging.

    "I guess I can do that, not sure on how to keep Clarent calm when things hit the fan, but I'll work something out. About the refugee situation... Yeah, it's been a while since I heard anything about them looking after me, so no idea what's up. But the thought... is appreciated", he says a bit with a hesitation. That he'd feel appreciation from something coming from RD that soon makes him feel a bit confused. He told himself to be careful with him, yet he starts losing one barrier after another talking to him. His fingers rest on his chin for a moment after them leaving, then turning to Jack.

    "While we're here... Feeling like having dessert?", he says smiling a little, not sure on what else to do right now.

    As Dr. Atrium fights to keep up with Mitsuki while they travel though the busy market. As he rushes he slams into a man wearing baggy clothing and they hit the ground. "Hold up!" Doc yells at Mitsuki as he gets up and helps the man up. He sees there is paper scarred everywhere and a dagger with rune painted on it litters the ground. He bends down to help the man pick up all his belongings and hands it back to him.

    "Here you go, sorry about knocking you down, I am in a rush." Do goes to hand the. Dagger over when he sees that there is I burnt pant stained in the blade. "You need to be careful if you are going to be playing with runes. Though I can tell you why this didn't work, your rune sign got burned off. Well I got to get going. Again sorry for bothering you."

    With that Doc rushes to catch up with Mitsuki. As they walk around the old part of the town, he looking around. When he sees the boat, he carefully climbs on and looks at her.

    "I think it would be wise for you to turn back into a human. Gods know I what they would do to a 'cute and fluffy' cat. Though I have to say, your voice is cute when you are a cat. If you don't have your hat to cover your ears, you can use mine."

    "OH! I get it!" Skimming through his brother's notebook Lox suddenly realized the reason why his runes fizzled out on him. "Of course! Now I feel like a mor-OOF!" He stumbles forward as a man in a long coat knocks him to the ground. He quickly regains his balance and faces the obviously rushed man just in time for him to shove his belongings back to him. "...Thanks..." Lox muters under his breath as he places his notebook and dagger back into his bag. It was at this point the man's words caught Lox's attention. The man knew about the runes Lox was trying to bring to the masses? His head quickly jerked up to respond to the man. "Actually it was....aaaaannnd you're...gone?" Lox had lifted his head to respond to no one, the man was gone. His eyes darted around in an attempt to find the man in the coat once again, and lucky he caught a quick glimpse of the man darting around a corner.

    Did everyone already know about these runes? Was he wasting his time with this little adventure of his? Would he be able to find more rune users if he followed the man? Well he was about to find out! Lox shoved the ink well into his backpack and quickly darted after the man, chasing him as quickly as he could. In his chase he thought he caught a glimpse of a woman tailing the man as well, Lox looked back to catch another look at the woman, but almost immediately stumbled into a random bystander. After a quick apology to the person Lox figured it was best to focus on chasing down the man he had been chasing, so he forgets about the woman tailing him and continues rushing to the mysterious man. Once his chase brought into the older part of town, and to a boat just beginning to drift from the port Lox's eyes widened a bit. "Crap! Can't let him get away!" He muttered to himself before taking a few steps back. He quickly goes into a full sprint and jumps his way to the drifting boat, upon landing at the stern of the boat he falls onto his butt and throws his fist into the air victoriously. "YOU'RE WRONG!" He shouts through his panting breaths, "The burned runes weren't the issue!" He takes a moment to catch his breath before looking to the man as he spoke to...a cat?

    "Grr I hate how Sharpe just tells everyone what to do. When did we vote on making him the bloody leader. Well, I do pity him slightly. I can't imagine its comfortable having a pole shoved where the sun don't shine. Oh that's a good one. I'm definately using that jeer if I ever get into a fight with him."

    Jack realizes the bloodstain he's made on the floor and switches to his human form.

    "Uh yes Jian, that would be fine. Let me just clean this up. Good thing the floor is wood."

    "Perhaps" Mitsuki says in answer of doc. The boat's view is cut off several times by the big poles in the water that prevent ships from crashing into the walls. Lox can see the cat from his perspective, but to Airgetlam it simply looks like the Doc is on the boat alone, until such a time as Lox jumps on it and it drifts past one of the poles and within the blink of Atrium's eyes, Mitsuki suddenly sits on the side of the boat in fully blown human form. She indeed doesn't have her hat on her, but simply pulls up a hood which is part of her armoured coat.

    "Don't worry Doctor, I will be fine." she says and gives Lox an acknowledging gaze just before the three and the boat disappear too far around the wall separating the southern docks and the central district. Lox made it onto the boat, only barely catching anything about the abandoned church... or was it some sort of sewer complex? He couldn't quite remember clearly, too busy being caught in his pursuit. Airgetlam, who is some distance away, also loses sight of the two behind the wall, but is too far to hear anything.
