Kit recovers 19 health 23/23 HP
"Hey, thanks! Sorry I don't have time to play. We have to kill the bad guys first!"

Jess recovers 27 health 21/21 HP
"Thank you so much! My name's Jess by the way, what's yours?"

"Oh, right."
Meanwhile, Luna rides over to Kress and quickly heals her.
Kress recovers 30 health 25/25 HP
"Let's clean up these cavaliers." Faron takes out his light tome and quickly makes a motion with his hand, launching a ball of light into an injured cavalier and taking it out. Kaiz follows his lead, firing a couple of arrows into another to take it down. Shizuka then runs over to the other cavalier, throwing a knife into them before jumping over them and stabbing them in the back for the finishing blow. Elay then jumps up in the air and brings Excalibur down on the last cavalier, smashing it into him with incredible force.

Elay and Lupis both move on ahead to take on the incoming fighters together. The enemies split into groups of five with each group taking on one of them. As the fighters approach, the all swing their axes toward Elay, but she manages to evade the attacks, gracefully dodging and slashing back at her enemies. One of them manages to hit her, but she quickly ends the battle, swinging Excalibur in a circle and taking down the remaining enemies in her group. Lupis manages to tank most of the enemy hits, ignoring them and striking back while Kain keeps a couple of them too busy to strike. Together, the two of them manage to weaken the enemies efficiently and still stand with minimal injuries.

Garren, Seraphim, and Arc then all head toward the enemy Soldiers, preparing to defend against them. Two of them attack Garren and Arc while one goes after Seraphim. Garren easily blocks out the attacks that are sent his way while Seraphim sidesteps the enemy lances. Arc takes the hits, but blocks out most of the damage. Seraphim makes quick work of her opponent, using a quick jab to break through their guard before slamming her lance over their head. Garren uses a wide swing of his axe, knocking back one of the enemy soldiers while the other steps back, avoiding the attack. Arc looks down at her enemies, unimpressed. “With the power of light, I will smite you!” She quickly swings her lance at one of the enemy soldiers twice, knocking them up in the air before charging forward on her horse, skewering both soldiers in one stab and causing a burst of light from her blessed lance.

While they finish fighting off the soldiers, Darik steps forward, in the way of the enemy mages. “Sorry, but you’re going to have to get through me if you want to touch Elay. Don’t worry, I’m sure you’ll look amazing while you explode into a thousand pieces.” As the mages create flaming pillars around Darik, he takes them out one at a time, causing them to explode in the darkness of his Nosferatu tome. For every attack they send at him, he immediately heals all damage while taking out another one of them. Finally, the last mage performs a special form of his spell, creating a large magic circle beneath Darik before a powerful explosion detonates, showering him in flames. “Agh! That one’s actually good. Sorry, loved the effort, but now I have to kill you.” Darik takes out the last mage with an explosion of dark energy, stealing some of his life to heal himself. “Whew, what a workout. Maybe this fight will actually be challenging.”

Arc recovers 10 health 26/26 HP
“Quila...Even though you are no longer here, I can feel your blessing in this lance. You fight at our side in spirit. Perhaps your spirit realizes that we are fighting for what is right…”
“Alright, what’s the plan, Kress?” Elay stands with Excalibur at the ready.
“Hmm…” Kress quickly surveys the battlefield.

She tosses five knives in the air, confusing the enemy before all five drop down and land on top of him in the same spot. "Hm. Nine out of ten. Could have had better form."

"What's the matter, dears? Never seen a witch at work?"

The soldier misses just barely and Faron manages to toss a couple of light blasts into him. "Watch your surroundings, Light Mage. Enemies could strike from anywhere and I won't have someone dying on me again."

Better give this to that princess..." He places the Rapier away. Claire then steps toward one of the enemy Generals, keeping her distance. "Alright. Just use the spell like Vex showed..." Claire makes a motion with her hand, causing a burst of dark magic to explode around the enemy General before using the same motion.

A powerful whirlpool then appears around him before all the water crashes into him and bursts outwards, shattering his armor and leaving him defenseless as a powerful beam of water drops on him from above. "The answer to that question would be yes." Canzar marks this down in her notebook. Critical hit! General receives 72 damage 0/36 HP
Canzar reaches level 10! Canzar's Magic, Speed, and Luck increase by 1! Canzar learns Future Sight!With only one enemy general left, Vex steps up and looks at him shaking her head and wagging her finger. "My dear, you didn't hope to stand in my way, did you? How sad. Don't worry, I'll roast you perfectly so the crows can eat your corpse for dinner~" Vex winks at the general before snapping her fingers and causing three powerful lightning bolts to drop on top of him in succession, shaking the very earth with each strike. Nothing is left but smoldering ash afterwards. "Perhaps I was too harsh, hmm?" General receives 81 damage 0/36 HP
Vex reaches level 10! Vex's Health, Strength, Magic, Skill, Speed, and resistance increase by 1! Vex learns Warp!Finally, Shizuka, Elay, and Kress run inside the keep and find Aria within. "So the others are all dead are they? Fine. So be it. But I won't let you take this keep. I am the Holy Knight, Aria! May the gods be at my side..." www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDk2N42FBn8Shizuka quickly darts around the room, tossing a knife toward Aria when she sees an opening. The knife hits her armor and manages to make a slight crack, but otherwise does next to nothing. "Ngh..." "It will take more than just knives to stop me. Now face judgement!" Aria speaks some magic words and creates a giant sphere of light above Shizuka. "...!" Shizuka quickly starts to run out from under it as fast as she can and just barely manages to dive out of the way as it crashes into the ground where she once was, creating a powerful explosion and send out a wave of light that knocks Shizuka off her feet. Both Elay and Kress stand, resisting against the powerful energy pushing them backward. Critical hit! Aria receives 3 damage 37/40 HP
Miss! Shizuka receives no damage 20/20 HP"I'll go in and weaken her, Kress. Then it's up to you to land the final blow." Kress nods and Elay runs in with Excalibur in hand. "Princess of Umbra. You lead the heretics, do you? You've taken not one, but two of my sisters away from me! I will not stand for it! In the name of my family and all those I love, I will strike you down here and now!" "Aria, I didn't kill Arc! She's still with us! Come with me and join the right side of this war. Help us fight for freedom!" "Lies! I know you control my sister and you killed Quila! If I take you down I can protect my brothers and bring my sister back to me. Now be silent and die!" "I knew it would come to this. So be it. I can't afford to lose either. There's too much on the line here! I won't let my father down!" Elay takes a step forward and points her blade toward Aria. She then runs forward, tossing Excalibur in the air above her. She jumps over Aria and grabs Excalibur in the air before bringing it down on top of Aria, unleashing three quick strikes in a row and then jumping backward to put distance between them. Aria then raises her hand, forming another giant sphere and dropping it down on top of Elay, blasting her backward, into the wall. "Agh!" She drops Excalibur and falls to her knees, badly injured from the attack. Critical hit! Aria receives 30 damage 7/40 HP
Elay receives 19 damage 5/27 HPKress then stands behind Aria and howls at her. "Huh? A Laguz?" Kress then charges forward, unleashing an angry growl before leaping at Aria and tearing at her mercilessly with her fangs. When she raises, Aria is dead and Kress is left standing as the victor. Aria receives 18 damage 0/40 HP
Kress reaches level 12! Kress' Health, Strength, Skill, and Defense increase by 1!

www.youtube.com/watch?v=nP71lKevkzwWith the battle over, Arc marches into the keep to make sure it's secured. "The enemies in the area have been thoroughly routed. Thanks to the help from Sidhe, we-" She then pauses as she sees Aria. "..." Elay stands and looks up to Arc, frowning. "Arc...I'm sorry..." Kress looks at Arc with a cold stare. "She was an enemy. So I killed her. That's that. Nothing more, nothing less. Now is no time for tears, Beorc. This war is not even remotely finished. So get over it. You'll see a lot of people die. That's just how it is." Elay's look of sympathy toward Arc quickly shifts to an angry glare at Kress. "How could you...Why would you say that!? This is her family we're fighting! You have to respect her feelings! She can grieve if she wants to!" Kress doesn't look at either of them and instead looks straight ahead. "I don't care about your feelings, Beorc. Move on. What's dead is dead and no amount of crying can bring it back." "You're horrible! How can you say you're fighting for equality when you refer to us by race and not by our names? You even say it like...some sort of insult." "Equality? Pah. I don't care about that. I want to fight for my people. The Laguz. What happens to the Beorc is none of my business, nor is it my problem. If the Beorc didn't exist, this world would be at peace. If they didn't exist, then so many innocent lives would be spared that day back in Leocor. You know nothing about the losses of war. I've seen entire towns burned to nothing with no survivors. The reason why? Because Laguz lived there. It's all the Beorc's fault everything is wrong. Now they'll pay." "Just listen to yourself, Kress! You sound just like the ones you fight against! How do you hope to change the world when you act just like those you try to change it from? Beorc are not the source of evil in this world. Surely you can see that. Not all Beorc are evil and not all Laguz are good. Places like Umbra can live peacefully with both races. We don't have to hate each other. If you'd only open your eyes-" "Enough. I'm going to get the others and tell them to set up camp here. We'll need our rest for the night if we're to take the Great Bridge tomorrow." Kress walks out of the room, leaving Elay and Arc. "...Arc, I'm sorry. Are you going to be alright?" "Do not worry about me, Elay. I will be fine. I may shed a few tears, but I won't back down. I made the choice to fight with you and I want to honor that choice. Like I have said before. If I give up now, all that I have lost will be for nothing. We must move onward. Even when things look worse, we move forward for hope of a better future..." "...I couldn't have said it better myself." "...Elay, might I ask a favor of you?" "Yes?" "...Help me bury Aria, please. I want to give her a proper send off. It...I don't want to see her simply dumped off in some hole..." "Of course. I wouldn't mind helping you." "Thank you..."

Bunbun comes across what looks like a strange, silver object as he wanders through the keep. "Huh. I wonder what this is." As he reaches out toward it, it emits a bright light that engulfs him. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xp3sRVYgl6MWhen the light fades, Bunbun is wearing completely different clothing. His long rabit ears still sit comfortably on his shoulders through his green, curly hair, but his clothes have changed a bit. His upper body is completely bare, exposing a patch of fur on his chest as well as...his entire chest. He wears silver gauntlets on his arms and now carries an axe in them. He wears simple, brown pants on his lower body along with a leather belt around the waist. His brown boots are missing bottoms and allow him to walk around barefoot. Bunbun's Strength increased by 4! Bunbun's Skill decreased by 4! Bunbun's Health and Defense increased by 2! Bunbun's Luck and Resistance decreased by 2! Bunbun learned how to use axes! Bunbun lost access to Beaststones! Bunbun learned HP+!"Huh. I wonder what I can do with this new power." (Just a note, I need you to decide if you want to give Bunbun the Bronze Axe or the Hammer in your inventory)

www.youtube.com/watch?v=niyFHU2pfuQMeeting with Kress after what happened with Arc, Elay walks up to her, still somewhat annoyed. "I can't believe what you did back there. Don't you understand anything about other people and their feelings? You can't just treat people like that. We're your friends, you know. So don't act like we're your enemies all the time." Kress continues to work along, taking inventory of the weapons and armor. "As far as I'm concerned, I do not need you to be my friends. You are my ally on the battlefield and that is all that matters. I have Kit to be my friend and that's all I need." "Ugh, just listen to yourself! It's like you never even spent any time with other people before!" "Well I didn't. I never spent much time outside of the castle, so that's why my only friend is Kit. And she's the only one I need. The only one I ever have needed and ever will." "What? That's ridiculous. You can't spend your entire life like that! You have to learn how to interact with people properly!" "I interact with Laguz just fine." " Laguz." "You said people." "Agh, I cannot believe you! You don't even consider Beorc PEOPLE?" "I don't have to. The Beorc are nothing to me. Perhaps if they treated us differently, I might think differently. But they don't, so why bother?" "You sound just like our enemies. Don't you get that a change has to start somewhere? Take the initiative and do it yourself. You don't have to immediately like all Beorc, but at least give them a chance. Here, you can start with me. We can be friends. Sound like a deal?" "Friends? With you...?" Kress looks disgusted. "Fine, but don't get any ideas. I'll start with acquaintances. But don't expect it to get further than that." "Perfect! Shake on it." Elay holds out her hand. Kress simply stares at it. "...Shake...?" She shakes herself around a bit like a dog would. "Um...no, not like that. It's a Beorc thing. We hold hands and then move them up and down. It means we agree on something." "Hm...?" Kress grabs Elay's hand and awkwardly shakes it. "I guess it's a start at least..." Elay and Kress achieve support rank C!www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrUDtnL1bo0"Bunbunbunbunbunbunbunnnnnnnn!" "Huh?" Bunbun turns around before being unexpectedly tackled by Kit in her cat form. She quickly pins him to the ground. "Bunbun! Looklooklook! I made up this new game we can play! It's called annoy Kress until she wrestles with you!" "That sounds kind of dangerous, Kit. Maybe you shouldn't annoy Kress." "Awwwww, but why noooooootttttt? She's so fun to play with. Nobody else wrestles quite like her. Except maybe you that one time." "If you want, I can play with you, Kit. I wasn't really doing anything important and-" "Yaaaaaaaayyyyyyyy! Bunbun is the best!" She hops off of him and starts to jump around the room excitedly. Bunbun laughs a bit while watching. "Hey, why is it exactly that you like to play games so much?" "Oh, I just really like to play! And it's fun! And I meet people this way! Then we can all have fun! Isn't that fun? Everyone's really happy this way. Now let's play! CHAAAARRRRGGGEEEE!" Kit tackles Bunbun once again and the two okay around for most of the day. Kit and Bunbun reach support rank B!www.youtube.com/watch?v=_S0JgMArAzIThat night, Garu was standing watch by Luna's door again as usual when she opens the door slowly and looks up at him. "Um...Garu..." "Hmm?" "Can you come in here for a little bit?" "Sure. What is it?" "Well, it's just that I...I'm kind of scared in here by myself. Ever since you've been standing guard over me I can sleep better and the nightmares have been going away, but um..." "Yes?" "It just gets kind of lonely and scary at night. I was wondering if you would stay in my room with me instead of standing outside like you always do. And I always feel bad about keeping you awake all night. So if you want, you can sleep in my bed too. I don't want you to be tired all the time..." Garu smiles. "Of course I can stay in here with you. It's even easier to keep you safe this way." Garu walks over and sits on the bed, next to Luna. She rests her head in his lap and snuggles him closely like a big teddy bear. She smiles and seems comfortable, shutting her eyes. "You know...of all the things I protect, I'm glad you're one of them. Sometimes I do question my job, whether I'm doing the right thing or not. But when I see you can sleep safely in your bed, it reminds me of everyone else I'm protecting too. We keep a lot of people safe together. I'm glad for that. The world is full of dangerous things and bad people, but I know as long as your warm light is there with me, I can protect us from it." Garu then looks down at Luna and notices she's asleep. He smiles and pats her head a bit with his hand. "Goodnight, Luna. I hope you have good dreams..." Garu and Luna achieve support rank A!www.youtube.com/watch?v=xlHJa-4GFYM"Okay. This time. Definitely this time. I just have to ask her out RIGHT TO HER FACE. Okay...Okay...whew. Okay, Carthis. YOU CAN DO THIS! Deep breaths." She breathes in deeply for a while. "Alright. Okay." She starts to walk out of her room before immediately turning back and standing in the center of her room. "...AAAGGGGHHH! I CAN'T DO IT! Okay, no, I can do this. I just...need some practice is all. Right, practice. Okay." Carthis takes in another deep breath. "Alright, listen, Claire. I really like you and think you're cute. Can we go on a date some time? Just get tea and talk together or something...?" "Oh, sure." "AAAAHHHHHHH!" Carthis nearly leaps five feet into the air as Claire is standing behind her. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE!?" "I was looking for you." "NO CRAP! HOW DID YOU GET IN HERE!?" "Darik let me in. He said that it would be okay if I came in right now. Actually, no, he said something about it being funny if he let me in I think..." "...Wait. Did you...? Did you say yes!?" "Yes." "WHAT!?" "Yes." Claire speaks a little louder this time. "You...You actually want to go on a date together?" "Yes." "With me?" "Yes." "Like...TOGETHER!?" "Yes." "So let me get this right. You," She motions to Claire, "want to go on a date with me," she motions to herself. "And we're going to spend time together. Talking and getting to know each other better?" "...Yes. I want to know you better. You always run away during our conversations. I thought you didn't like me." "DIDN'T LIKE YOU!?" "Yes." "Claire, I've been trying to ask you out FOREVER! And now...heheh. You said yes! That means we get to spend time together and get to know each other and maybe snuggle and then...heeheehee..." "Yes. Getting to know each other. That is what a date is. Now let's go." "What? Right now?" "Yes." "Wait, wait! I'm not ready!" "Let's go." Claire grabs Carthis by the arm and drags her out the door as the two head toward their first "date". Carthis and Claire achieve support rank A!

www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2HlW0J9CpQ"Hmmhmm..." Arc continues to keep up with her work, cleaning up her armor and weapons and making sure to dry them properly. She works rather diligently and does well. As she continues to work, Lupis walks in and sees her hard at work. "Wow, seems like you got better at the whole hard work stuff, huh?" "Yes, I've gotten used to waking up early and training and keeping my own equipment together. It's actually kind of nice. Doing these little tasks helps me feel focused in a way. That's not to say I didn't like my old life, but this is just fine." "Yeah, now that I know you used to be the High Priest's daughter, it makes sense that you never knew how to take care of a horse. You probably had people for that. Haha, it must be nice to live in luxury like that. I've always lived a pretty poor life." "Well, living in luxury is not meant to be important in Lux. What matters is not what is in your pocket, but what is in your heart." "Huh, that's an interesting way to look at it. I guess I never thought of it that way much. Mostly because in Daravia, everywhere is completely overrun by bandits and thieves. If you don't have money, you don't really mean anything to them. I'd probably be dead if it wasn't for Shizuka helping me out!" "Hmm. So she saved your life? That might explain your strange obsession with her..." "O-Obsession? It's not an obsession. I just...think she's really cool. And you know...it would be nice if she noticed what I did." "Remember, one should perform their duties not for reward, but out of the kindness in their hearts." "I know, I know, it's just that..." "I understand it can be difficult, but if you continue to do what you truly believe is right, good things will come to you. After all, the gods smile upon those with a pure heart. Just keep doing what you do. Things will turn up better for you. Do not give up hope in love." "L-Love!? I just think she's cool, where did you get love from!?" "Oh, my bad. It looks like I embarrassed you a bit there." Arc laughs a little to herself. "Hey, was that a laugh?" "Maybe." "It's not funny!" Arc begins to laugh a bit harder and loses herself in laughter. "...Huh. I don't think I've ever seen miss serious face laugh so much before. What's the matter, are we finally getting you to lighten up a bit." "Maybe a little. It can be good to laugh. At times." "Alright, well I guess we should both get back to work. See you later, Arc." "See you." Lupis and Arc achieve support rank B!www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6IHWtQieh8"ALRIIIIIIGGGGHHHHTTTT! NOW PUNCH THOSE TREES. IN HALF!" "WHAT!?" "JUST DO ITTTTTTT! HYAAAAAHHHHH!" Seraphim smashes her fist into a tree, punching clean through it. "H-HYAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!" Garren then punches another tree and immediately recoils back in pain. "Ahh! Ow, ow ow! What? How come it worked for you!?" "You have to have UNDYING SPIRIT." She punches another tree before heading over and looking at Garren's hand. "Hmm. What the-!? Garren, you've got a huge cut on your hand! No wonder you can't punch trees today! How long has that been there?" "Oh, that? I only recently got it in the last fight. It wasn't anything serious, so I thought I would just go get it healed up later." "UNACCEPTABLE! YOU ARE MY STAR STUDENT! I WILL NOT HAVE CUTS DEFILING YOUR HAND!" "Oh no...twenty more push ups!?" "What? No, I'm not crazy. I'm taking you over to Luna to get this thing patched up. You need healing, Garren. It's okay to ask for help sometimes, you know. Besides, you're really important to me, you know? You're the only one that's managed to keep up with all my training so far. Hell, even Kaiz gave up after the first few sessions we trained together. You're really something special, you know that?" "...Oh, I never thought of it like that." "Of course not! You never even knew I trained other people! Now come on then! Let's go get Luna so you don't get some infectious disease and die. Because that would SUCK!" "Thanks, Seraphim, but...you know you don't have to carry me like that, right? I'm not even out of my heavy armor yet..." "I have no idea what you're talking about. THIS IS ENTIRELY NECESSARY AND IS PART OF MY OWN TRAINING! HYAAAAAAHHHHHH!" "AHH! SOMEBODY STOP THIS THING! SHE MOVES FASTER THAN A CROW COVERED IN SPEEDWINGS!" Seraphim dashes off, leaving behind a trailing dust cloud in her wake... Seraphim and Garren achieve support rank A!www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJmqrzsY-Q8Faron sits within camp, reading a book just for fun. Some sort of fantasy novel. As he does so, he suddenly notices a dark shadow blocking out the sunlight. "...Hm?" Looking up, his eyes meet with Darik's. "Whatcha readin' there? Something interesting?" "Oh, it's you." Faron's expression darkens slightly as he sees Darik. "Eh? Did I do something wrong? You don't look too happy to see me." "It's nothing. I simply don't approve of your magic." "My magic...? Oh, you mean I'm a dark mage. Right, right, you're from Opulentus, aren't you? They don't believe in practicing dark magic there..." "There's a reason that kind of magic is banned. It's dangerous and should not be allowed. Or taken lightly." "Yeah, yeah. Blah blah morality blah. Listen, I know you're happy keeping things nice and boring within the confines of normal magic, but there's way more you can accomplish when you look at the so called 'forbidden' arts." "They are forbidden." "Alright, mister stick in the mud. Forbidden, shmorbidden. I don't care. Any kind of magic is legal in Umbra. And for good reason. There's a lot you can learn from dark magic. You don't have to hold back and you can test both your own limits and the limits of your magic. These moral rules and stuff are dumb and just get in the way of progressing our studies of magic. Why do you think Umbra has such advanced magic studies?" "And why do you think Umbra is so well known for its evil sorcerers and necromancers? Letting that kind of power control you is dangerous. You invite only danger when you use it. That's exactly why I chose to learn light magic. To keep trouble makers like you in check." "Whaaaatever. I think you're boring and need to lighten up. A little forbidden magic here and there never hurt anyone." "That's what everyone else says too. Until a demon eats their soul. Watch what you do, Darik. You wouldn't want to get yourself caught up in some kind of trouble. And if anyone gets hurt by your antics, I swear I will take you down myself." "Big words from a weakling mage. Light magic is the weakest magic of them all, so I guess I can't blame you. The dark arts have always been truly superior." "..." Faron simply glares at Darik in silence. "Alright, I'll leave. But don't worry, I'll be back to pester you later." Darik then walks off, leaving Faron to his book. Although he tries to focus on it, Faron's focus seems lost. "Ugh, great. Now all I can think of is worrying about seeing his annoying face again..." Darik and Faron achieve support rank C!

www.youtube.com/watch?v=98O9a8_uMXoArgentum sits alone, among a field of flowers not far off from the keep. "How beautiful nature is...I wish I could sit here and just watch all day. The plants and the animals..." He watches out in a peaceful fashion. "Ooh, someone else that enjoys observing the world around them? Maybe we do have a few things in common." Vex suddenly appears behind Argentum as if teleporting. Actually, it was exactly like teleporting. "Hello, Beorc. I was just enjoying some time with nature." He smiles at Vex. "Although, I'm sure a filthy and disgusting creature such as yourself has no idea what that's even remotely like." "Aww, does the fox not like me? Interesting how you can say those things with such a smile on your face..." "Don't worry, I only look down on you for your race. I won't try to hurt you or anything." "Of course you wouldn't hurt me. Foxes and witches get along rather well, don't you know?" "No, I didn't. I've heard of Kitsune getting along with the shrine maidens where I come from, but they're all Laguz." "Oh, Laguz actually get along quite well with witches, Foxy. In fact, some of them even use Laguz as their familiars." "Servants to a Beorc? Sounds like something Opulentus would try." "Oh, Foxy, you're too cute." She pinches his cheek and then ruffles his hair with her hand, making sure to cause his ears to flop everywhere. "Witches don't treat their familiars as servants. Quite the opposite, really. We treat them as our closest friends and equal. You know, you would probably make a nice familiar. What do you think? Want to be my little fox?" "That sounds absolutely despicable. I would hate that." Argentum says this all still while smiling at Vex. "I think you'll warm up to me after a while, Foxy. And when you do, just come call me. I'll be waiting~" Vex heads off, humming a cheery tune to herself. "What a weird Beorc. But she couldn't possibly be more wrong. I'll never feel any sort of connection with a Beorc. They're evil and only want destruction." He then flops over in the flowers and stares at the clouds. "Hmm..." Vex and Argentum achieve support rank C!www.youtube.com/watch?v=niyFHU2pfuQ"AHHH! Where is it, where is it!?" Jess frantically searches her room, tossing things around. As she does so, Shizuka walks in. "Hey, Elay wante-" She looks up and sees Jess throwing things around the room, trashing the place in search of something. Shizuka's face immediately drops into a frown as she watches. "...What are you doing?" "My necklace! My golden necklace! Where is it!? I can't lose it! Shizuka! You have to help me find it!" "Your...necklace?" She raises a single eyebrow. "Yes! It's really important to me! Can you help me find it!?" "Please, stop shouting. I'll help you. Where was the last place you had it?" "Well, we were fighting on the battlefield and then we finished and then we set up camp and then I went to take a bath to get the blood out of my fur and then-" "Did you leave it at the baths?" "...Did I...? I think I did! Oh, thank you so much Shizuka!" Jess grabs Shizuka and gives her a big hug while Shizuka makes a face of disgust and tries to push her back. "Please...don't get in my personal space." "Oh, I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to! It won't happen again!" "...Why is that necklace so important to you?" "My necklace? It was uh...well, it's kind of..." Jess takes a deep breath. "It was the last thing my mom gave me before our village was attacked..." "Oh, I see. At least you knew your mother. I never met mine. Or my father. I was practically raised by my sister." "Oh...I'm so sorry, Shizuka. I didn't know..." Jess gives Shizuka a hug again. "Personal space." "Right! Right! Sorry..." Jess lets Shizuka go and then awkwardly stands around, waiting for the conversation to continue. "...Your necklace. Go get it." "Oh, right! I should do that. Before I forget. Thanks again, Shizuka! You're the best!" Jess runs off and Shizuka sighs. Shizuka and Jess achieve support rank C!www.youtube.com/watch?v=P2rl0H53tnc"Kaiiizzzz. Kaiiiiiiizzzzzzz! Hey, Kaiz, where are you?" Canzar wanders around camp, shouting out for Kaiz before eventually stumbling upon him. "Ah, there you are. Kaiz, I need your help with an experiment." "Huh? Experiment? Alright, but you know I don't work for free, right?" "Of course. I'll pay you in full." "Alright, then I'm all ears." "So you know bees, right? They make honey. I need you to help me with them." "Help you with...bees...?" "Yep. I need you to go get me some honey. Directly from the bee hive." "Why can't you just buy some at the market?" "It's part of the experiment! It must be fresh! I'd get it myself, but I wouldn't want to risk it. Bee stings are not fun to have." "Well I don't find the idea of getting stung by all those bees all that great myself..." "But you DO want money, right?" Canzar takes out a piece of paper showing how much she'll pay Kaiz. "Whoa...that's a lot of zeros. Where did you get all this money!?" "Being the head student at the academy of magic has its perks. One of those being that you can sell your research for quite the profit. So are you in or are you out?" "Count me in! I'll get your honey for you." "Perfect! Come back to me once you get it. I'll reward you with all that gold."

Lady Elay asked me to bring you some tea and to check on you. Since we haven't seen you outside of your room in a while, she was getting worried." "Er...Yes, come on in." Uragiru hastily places away his papers and hides them. "Hm? What was that?" "What are you talking about?" "I just saw you stuff something in those drawers. You were writing something?" "Well, maybe. Something. But it wasn't anything that concerns you." "Perhaps not. I don't wish to look into your private matters. Here you are, Moon Blossom tea." Gerand places a tea cup on Uragiru's desk and as he does so, he notices some sort of pin being worn by Uragiru. "Hmm? That pin..." "...Yes?" "That pin was worn by that Falcon Knight. Quila. And that other commander we defeated, Aria. Come to think of it, every Opulentian general we've fought so far has had one of those. That pin is only given to high ranking Opulentian generals. Where did you get it?" "...Fine. It seems you've found my secret. I used to fight for the Opulentians. I did many things I was not proud of, but I got tired of it and decided to fight against them for once. That's why I'm here. This pin is simply a reminder. I keep it so that I will not forget why I switched sides. It reminds me of the past and the things I cannot change..." "...What exactly was it that you were writing?" "...Take a look for yourself if you're that interested." Gerand reaches down and takes out the papers, reading through them. "This...is a novel. Amazing. You never struck me as a writer." "You'd be surprised. A lot of people aren't what they appear to be." "I'm sorry I was skeptical. That was rude of me. But you must understand I have someone to protect. Seeing as it was simply a book, I have no reason to continue to look through your personal belongings. My deepest apologies." "It's fine. Don't worry about it. I'm just a little self conscious when it comes to my writing. I don't like people looking at it before it's finished." "I understand. Well, I'll leave you to your writing. Enjoy the tea." "See you." Gerand walks out of the room and shuts the door behind him. Gerand and Uragiru achieve support rank C!

Chapter 9 - Battle on the Great Bridge"Lady Elay, we seem to be getting close to the Great Bridge. Are you ready?" "I'm as ready as I ever will be, Gerand. After we capture the bridge it's onward to the Opulentus wall. These Opulentians sure have some solid defenses..." Kress crosses her arms and looks over at Elay. "Of course they do. All Opulentus thinks about is war and how they can fight against us." "Well in that case, we'll just have to be prepared ourselves. Is the Sidhe army ready to move out, Kress?" "Yes, Beorc, they are. Is the Beorc army ready to move out?" "Yes, the Umbran army is ready." Garu then flies in, shifting out of crow form. "I have good news and bad news. The good news is that Prince Leo is on his way." Kress' face lights up with a smile. "Prince Leo! I haven't seen him since we were kids!" "This is no time for a reunion, Kress. Prince Leo is on his way here to help us combat the Opulentians. We could use his help in taking the bridge. It will take some time, but he will eventually come in from the north and help take out a few of the long range enemies." "Range...?" "Yes. The enemies have set up ballistas and trap holes all over the bridge. Not only this, but they have mages that can blast magic at us from a distance. This will prove to be a difficult battle if you don't have a well thought out plan." "Rgh...I hate ranged enemies." Elay looks off in the distance. "Hmm. We'll have to move fast and take out those ballistas, but still avoid the pitfalls. And the knights standing on the bridge will block the way if we aren't careful. Then there are the mages...hmm...this will be a difficult battle, indeed..." Garu then speaks up once more. "Well, you'll have to make a decision soon. Prince Leo is fast approaching and if we don't have the enemy distracted by the time he gets here, all of those ballistas and mages will be pointed at him. Our force is much larger than his. We can take more of a hit. But if he goes down, we won't have a way to disable the bridge defenses and get through." Elay glances over at everyone for a moment before a spark of realization comes over her. "I think I might have a plan. Let's move out!" The others nod and everyone heads off toward the bridge. www.youtube.com/watch?v=rf_b6F6frisUpon reaching the bridge, Elay takes a quick look around at the enemy defenses. "Looks like the bridge is split up easily enough into sections...let's start with that first group."

I kept forgetting to ask. Vex's Blizzard is the rangey-shooty kind, not the enemy-no-counter kind, right?

Crow needs sleep. If I don't remember to do this by RIFTS, assume I remember that I read it and forgot I forgot to... wait, not forgot, that I chose not to come up with a strategy because sleep.

I don't know if that was a request for a reminder that you read it and didn't post or what, but uh...here's your reminder that you maybe asked for?
