Eliphas, Kiemi'a, and Xuelian discussing about eye surgery

[02:43] Recently withdrawing the crystalized gem from his chest, he walked over to the two with the void like shard in hand.

"It's a shard, one that shows you your deepest desires. Despite how you may feel, your deepest desires may be something different. Such as a world on fire, or a true peace."

Eliphas raised his hand.

"It could be to have a loving family, or well.. Anything really." he shrugged apologetically.

"Curious to see what you two truly desire?"

With one motion he'd open his palm towards them with the shard in hand, holding it at their eye level.

"You don't have to tell me, but feel free to witness it!"
(Eliphas Aegeus)

[02:44] {Item} You drop The Black Shard.
[02:48] Xue had a locket that was similar- Except it showed the person closest to his heart, though he knew what'd he see upon looking into the Shard.

His friends from the school days- Actually happy to be around each other like they used to, as if... nothing changed minus the new people they had around them along the way. Something absolutely impossible obtain or ask for.

He witnessed it alright but knowing it was impossible he knew it was basically like seeing nothing at all.

"I see I'm still delusional."
(Xuelian Bei-Feng)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[02:51] "Deepest...desires."

Kiemi'a took a look at the strange shard, and...it contained his former family loving him for who he is. The vision gave him pause, staring out into deep space just thinking about it.

"..........."
(Kiemi'a Shezorei)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[03:06] Eliphas smiled at their reactions as he continued to hold their shard, and once he received an answer? Well. He simply moved to put it away.

"I'm glad if it helped either of you.. But if it showed you something that you didn't prefer? Well.. I apologize about that." he smiled softly.

"There's two reasons why I showed you this shard by the way."

With his free hand, a digit popped up!

"One, because you two are close to me. So I wanted to return something back to the both of you."

Then another digit appeared.

"Two, because Ael brought something to my attention recently Xue and Kit-Kat. They mentioned how they had an eye of Ifrit and transplanted it into themselves. I... I'm not sure how that's going to go. But I was wondering if you could do the same with this shard and my eyes."

Blue hues shifted, focusing solely on Xuelian.

"Your a head shaman and an amazing medic... So I was hoping that you.." he turned to Kiemi'a, "With the help of Kit-Kat if they wish to attend... Will be able to combine it into my.. Well me." he laughed awkwardly.

"I've been thinking about what I should do with the shard, and with me developing spiritual sight. I was wondering if it could benefit me in the future."

"I know it's a long shot.. But it's something that I'd like to do.. Perhaps and you imbue it into my soul? Or deliver it straight into my mana circuits? I'm not sure how it'll work."
(Eliphas Aegeus)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[03:06] {Item} You picked up The Black Shard. Dropped by Eliphas Aegeus..
[03:09] Xue squints, then looks to Kiemi'a.

"WELL! The worst thing is we could fail- But maybe... Potentially. Perhaps... Anything is possible, so it's worth a shot to see what'll happen."
(Xuelian Bei-Feng)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[03:11] Ears flicked as he snapped out of his stare, hearing the plan to....fuse the shard into him?! Eyes being the mirror to one's soul...how is this going to work? Kiemi'a looked pensive at the idea...

"...It ISN'T out of possibility, but not knowing what happens on failure is my concern."
(Kiemi'a Shezorei)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[03:15] Eliphas smiles wide as he reaches for the shard again.

"I trust the two of you. So, if you two are ready. We can do it now if your ready."

Trying not to think TOO hard about the consequences, Eliphas was willing to give it a shot. If it was going to give him an edge against the competition, to aid him in achieving his goals. He'd do anything..

Even if it'd risk any major results. He was willing to do whatever it took.
(Eliphas Aegeus)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[03:16] Xuelian Bei-Feng says, "It might take a few days to plan and all that."
[03:16] Xuelian Bei-Feng says, "Eyes are... very sensitive."
[03:17] Kiemi'a Shezorei says, "The ritual, the safety, all that."
[03:17] Eliphas Aegeus says, "If Ael can do it."
[03:17] Eliphas Aegeus says, "Why can't I.."
[03:17] Eliphas Aegeus says, "I don't know of what can all happen..."
[03:17] Eliphas Aegeus says, "But I'm willing too... Do it."
[03:18] Xuelian Bei-Feng says, "He's transplanting an eye...We are using a rock, the main difference here...."
[03:18] Xuelian Bei-Feng says, "I need a blue print prior to make sure nothing ends up blinding you."
[03:19] Xuelian Bei-Feng says, "I've watched too many people in my life lose eyes... or go blind."
[03:20] Eliphas Aegeus says, "Well.. I was more likely thinking of.. Instead of replacing the eye with a rock."
[03:20] Eliphas Aegeus says, "More like.."
[03:20] Eliphas Aegeus says, "Aaah.."
[03:20] Eliphas Aegeus asks, "Imbuing it into my eye?"
[03:20] Eliphas Aegeus asks, "Or my soul?"
[03:20] Xuelian Bei-Feng says, "I see..."
[03:20] Kiemi'a Shezorei says, "It still might damage the circuits without utmost caution."
[03:22] Eliphas Aegeus says, "I figured."
[03:22] Eliphas Aegeus says, "But I trust you two."
[03:22] Eliphas Aegeus asks, "Do you think that you can do it?"
[03:23] Xuelian Bei-Feng says, "I think so... It's more which route."
[03:23] Kiemi'a Shezorei says, "Mmhm."
[03:23] Eliphas Aegeus asks, "Well.. What are the options we have?"
[03:23] Eliphas Aegeus exclaims, "Let's go over that. Then we can come to an agreement about how to carry on!"
[03:24] Xuelian Bei-Feng says, "Well option one... is... risky which is merging the shard with the eyes"
[03:25] Xuelian Bei-Feng says, "The second is finding a place in the skull to affix it to and power the eyes like a battery..."
[03:25] Xuelian Bei-Feng says, "And the more creative one is the most complex and time consuming..."
[03:26] Eliphas Aegeus asks, "And that would be?"
[03:26] Xuelian Bei-Feng says, "Directly editing the Magic Circuits using said shard which if a mess up is made could damage your circuitry."
[03:29] Xuelian Bei-Feng asks, "Any ideas on your part, Kiemi'a?"
[03:29] Eliphas Aegeus says, "Mmm..."
[03:34] Eliphas Aegeus says, "Xue."
[03:34] Eliphas Aegeus says, "For the last idea."
[03:34] Eliphas Aegeus asks, "Would it affect my offsprings in any way?"
[03:34] Xuelian Bei-Feng says, "No idea."
[03:34] Kiemi'a Shezorei says, "Mm..."
[03:34] Eliphas Aegeus asks, "Would it have the potential too?"
[03:35] Kiemi'a Shezorei says, "I... can't think of alternate methods."
[03:35] Xuelian Bei-Feng says, "Considering we'd be using the shard more in a mana state, it's a possibility."
[03:37] Eliphas Aegeus says, "Hmm.."
[03:37] Eliphas Aegeus says, "Saga told me that I was touched by white magic from my time in my mothers womb."
[03:37] Eliphas Aegeus asks, "Would that change anything?"
[03:38] Xuelian Bei-Feng says, "--Oh, yes... That part. I have no idea there, either..."
[03:38] Xuelian Bei-Feng says, "Chaska would know more in that category."
[03:39] Kiemi'a Shezorei says, "This is pretty unknown territory even so."
[03:40] Eliphas Aegeus asks, "So.. Should we get her involved with it?"
[03:40] Xuelian Bei-Feng says, "Up to you for that one."
[03:40] Eliphas Aegeus says, "I mean."
[03:40] Eliphas Aegeus says, "Do you two feel confident"
[03:40] Eliphas Aegeus asks, "Or do you believe that we should wait?"
[03:41] Xuelian Bei-Feng says, "I think we should wait for the time being."
[03:41] Kiemi'a Shezorei says, "Again, utmost caution."
