Jiuweihu's Epitome Item Dev 2

[14:22] Yoshiko Taiyang says, "Hello, dear Tea."
[14:23] Tea asks, "Hello. You said you needed help with your weapon, yeah?"
[14:23] Tea says, "Sorry for the wait. I've had... a lot going on."
[14:24] Sylvannas asks, "Ooo...can I watch?"
[14:24] Yoshiko Taiyang says, "It's okay.. At your age things will appear to happen more often than not."
[14:24] Yoshiko Taiyang says, "And I wouldn't mind."
[14:25] Tea says, "We can start when you're ready."
[14:26] Yoshiko Taiyang says, "Alright. My materials are.. in my shrine but I do not own an anvil within there because it wouldn't look right."
[14:27] Tea says, "It's okay. We can go to my room."
[14:27] Yoshiko Taiyang says, "Alright.. Follow me for a minute."
[14:28] Yoshiko Taiyang asks, "Alright, that should be all. Where's your abode?"
[14:28] Tea says, "The library."
[14:30] Tea exclaims, "Here we are!"
[14:30] Yoshiko Taiyang says, "O-Oh.. Bright."
[14:30] Yoshiko Taiyang says, "Okay."
[14:30] Sylvannas says, "Ow....my eyes..."
[14:38] Yoshiko had her eyes drawn to all the light. It didn't necessarily bother her since she was a walking piece of sun wherever she went. Either way, it wouldn't have mattered much for this little moment they were going to have with Tea. It's been awhile and the weapon she helped turn her grandfather's notes into has done her a good deal.

But this time, it was time for it to receive a better style to it. New things were going to be added for the tome itself and it was going to be upgraded as a whole. However, with how Yoshiko this in her head, it was going to change the Illuminated Fox as a whole.

For the time being, Yoshiko rose bother her hands. As a traditional kitsune, her fingers would snap and stay in place for a moment until the materials in question had spawned from her illusionary world. They floated in front of her for Tea to look and examine.

"Arcanium to strengthen the tome's magical power, right..? This should be enough pieces to work with.

And this..." The tube was held out further than the Arcanium. This one would need a bit more explaining on how Yoshiko wanted it inputted into the tome itself. It was a mere vial with a red substance but the closer it got to Tea, she'd realize that there was an immense heat coming from it.

"... I was given this by my friend Aeolus. It's flame that will change it's state of nature depending on who is in position of it. I... want this to be connected to me and the book. Like a string between us.

That way it'll fuel my magical power and always stay with me no matter what.." Yoshiko felt like she explained it enough for Tea. Now she awaited what the Rhoynish Princess thought.
(Yoshiko Taiyang)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[14:39] {Item} You drop Adaptive Flame.
[14:39] {Item} You drop Arcanium x1.
[14:39] {Item} You drop Arcanium x1.
[14:40] {Item} You drop Arcanium x1.
[14:41] {Item} You drop Jiuweihu's Epitome.
[14:49] The absurdly bright room was a remnant of his childhood that he hadn't bothered changing. Whether it be for nostalgia reasons or for something more, Tea left it be.

Precious materials appear from thin air and float before them which leads him to lean forward and examines their quality. Sure enough, he could easily work with these. She had managed to gather everything she reasonably needed for an upgrade to be conducted.

"Hmm... I'll get started right away for you. This shouldn't be too hard."

As per his words, the redhead rushes off out of the room and returns back with a small table and a set of chairs both for himself and Yoshiko. He moves to take hold of the tome after seating himself and promptly withdraws a rune scribing brush from his pouch.

By drawing the same pattern that he originally had in reverse, a pattern of his own unique making, he weakens the binding holding the Mythril spine in place and slides it off. The threelumps of Arcanium are taken in hand and he heads over to the anvil to line them up in a row.

While he did have a forge in the room since it was his personal work space, the project at hand called for something similar to last time. It'd certainly make further binding the tome to her much easier.

"Yoshiko, it might be a little hard to get a hot enough temperature, but would you mind heating the Arcanium up for me?"
(Tea)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[15:04] It made the Fox a bit better knowing that these items could definitely be used towards her tome. Everything was in place and Yoshiko thought about the future with her tome. She assumed it won't necessarily need anything else after this unless she came across something new.

Going back to the Rhoynish as she put the Arcanium on the anvil in a set line ready to be smelted, Yoshiko watched. She was then called for the same task she had done last time. Albeit, this one would need a bit more firepower than mere mythril.

"Of course... I can do that for you right now. Please step back while I get to it. Oh...


...I can do the more.. spiritual part of the enhancement if need be." Especially since Yoshiko was more spiritual than everyone here since she had the literal power of the a goddess within her. So, the task of handling with her inner mana and soul wasn't going to be hard for her.

But going back to the metal in front of her, Yoshiko would wait for Tea to take a step back as prompted before raising her hand over the metal. Arcanium needed a much higher temperature than what mytrhil needed to be malleable enough.

There were embers all over Yoshiko already. There were like light dust of light shredding off of her hair and clothes. Soon, each would be brought her forearm. At first glance, it would seem that Yoshiko was dipping her hand into a bucket of lava. Alas, she felt no burning sensation since she felt she was an embodiment of flames.

And not only was this an improvement for her tome. It was going to be an improvement for herself. "That... should be hot enough." Heat waves hugged the Taiyang's arms. Everyone in the room could see it, even Yoshiko. All that heat was then transported to the very center of her palm. A thick flame erupted from her hand and covered the metals as a whole.

They glowed.. and Yoshiko didn't stop until she felt it was needed. Which, didn't seem to take too long.
(Yoshiko Taiyang)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[15:20] Though it was a lot to ask for from any ordinary fire magi, Yoshiko had proven to be anything but. Tea fetches a hammer from his pouch while he waits and takes a step back for her to work undisturbed.

"Spiritual part? Yeah, I was kinda counting on that. Makes my job ten times easier." He didn't mind going through the motions though, for the sake of time efficiency and ensuring that the connection was strongly forged, it helped.

He stares in silence and awe as flames dance along Yoshiko's form and respond to her will. The heat was something that Tea, fixated as he was on her work, could bear with. He'd wait all the wait up until she was done to move in and do his part as the metal came to glow before his eyes.

"Excellent. This is gonna work nicely."

Similarly to how he'd done before, he taps his hammer against the Arcanium to mold it to the shape he needed it to be. It was a bit more of a precarious, delicate process due to how valuable the metal was though ultimately the process was still the same. Even more ornate sun details would be carved along the spine this time as a testament to his increased skill over the years.

A heat resistant glove is utilized to bring the spine over to the book where he'd fix it in place with awaiting runes. While it was still aglow with her flames, Tea takes the adaptive flame in hand and uncorks it with a claw.

His free hand scribbles down another complex set of seals around the sun stone before he pours the flame directly into it slowly. It brightens the stone, simmers, and sinks away as it's absorbed and pulses more intense heat throughout the entirety of the tome. The emptied vial is set aside and his eyes move up to Yoshiko.

"Before I seal this off, I'm gonna need you to uh... bless the stone, so to speak. It's got your mana in it, but to connect this unique fire to your spirit you're gonna have to-nevermind, you get it. Go ahead."

He wouldn't waste time explaining something she already knew.
(Tea)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[15:52] The metal was being fine tuned onto the tome. Thanks to Tea, this was an easy and simple process of strengthening and adding to the already sturdy structure of the tome. This would also provide a better affinity with the book.

There was a lot to do for this tome alone. The Arcanium had be set already and that would cause the magical power within it to flow much easier. Now it was just time to add the vial of flames that adapted into whatever substance it wanted.

The substance flowed like water. It covered the Sun Stone that was in the center of the tome and caused it to glow. With a light flame poking from the center. Yoshiko watched it with a hard focus until Tea began to spoke to them. Sky blue eyes would rest their attention onto them.

"I understand, of course... This will take no longer than a few minutes. Nor is it different from what I do with demons and anyone who possessed Occult or Dark magic.

Should.. be simple," she explains.

Yoshiko takes her hand and places it on the clothes around her chest. She snaps her cloak off and removes her armor. She opens the shirt underneath just a bit where her skin would show just above her chest.

The plan she had going for this was to take the sun's glow and rays that she had within her and connect it through a rune to her magical center.

Which shouldn't be too hard.

Yoshiko would soon begin to glow like the sun. She appeared as if she was the beginning of dawn. Her hand had a center of heat to it before it rested on her chest. Light smoke emerged and when she removed her hand, there was a mark that had the image of the sun. It glowed vividly.

With that being done, it created a ray of light which aimed down at the flame within the sun stone. The adaptive flame adjusting to the ray and connecting to it fully.

It was subtle but even Tea could tell there was a lot of power radiating between the connections. "It can't be severed... Unless one of my own would like to connect to it."

Her flames would now burn brighter around her. It was a nice thought as she put back on her gear. "... You may seal it now so that the connection is protected.
(Yoshiko Taiyang)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[16:06] When it came to personal projects like these, Yoshiko's cooperation was just as important as his own. It was a joint effort that would result in a piece of artwork incomparable to the quality of what one could simply buy. Outside of combat, it was one of the few things that brought Tea joy.

He's impressed yet again, however, as the kitsune comes fully aglow and her beauty and radiance are akin to the sun in that moment. Given the surreal nature of it all, it's all Tea can do to stare as she forms a direct spiritual link with the stone positioned front and center in the book once a mark had been forged on her own person.

It was his turn to work again.

His brush comes down against the book and the runes are solidly sealed at once. Lingering remnants of heat from the lightly glowing Arcanium are absorbed by the stone and, with power Yoshiko's power coursing through it, the book was finally finished.

Now it'dfeel like a part of her.

Satisfied with his work, he beckons down to it for her to accept before stowing his supplies away.

"There you are- it should last you a lifetime and then some."
(Tea)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[16:42] YOshiko had basically had her gear on the moment Tea had done the finishing touches on the tome. It was soon turning into the a perfect weapon for her to start goiung back to eradicating the land of the evil and darkness that fiended upon it.

Yoshiko pulls the tome towards her with a finger. It was connected to her spiritually thanks to the flaming thread between her and the book thanks to the sun mark on her chest.

"Definitely a lifetime... It doesn't necessarily need anything else but if I do come across something you'll be the first..

But.... It's perfect for the time being."

Yoshiko was now one of the more superior Kitsune upon Esshar. Right next to Walter who rivals her within her racial group.

With another snap of her fingers, the tome would hover over to her back and rest on it. The glow it possessed dimmed slightly but appeared like it was matching with Yoshiko's breathing.

"Thank you again for doing this for me.. I wouldn't know who to go to if you weren't around. Anyways, I will remember your efforts incase you need anything," she states, soon making her departure.

[16:45] There was nothing more for him to do unless she were to bring him more to work with. For now, however, the boy's job was done. He was content with this.

"Don't mention it. I hope it serves you well in combat."

Such was all he could hope for from something of his making.
(Tea)
