Calie Marie has placed Mox into anti-magic restraints!

You now under anti-magic restraints. If you attempt to tamper with the device, the runic engravings on the metal glow and you feel it tightening, tiny spikes extended into your skin.

(72 hours remaining before the restraint runs out of mana)


Mox asks, "You think the slaves in collars in Gehenna ever earned a master's trust?"

Wen Gao says, "Now listen to Shiro and Calie in Silver Lake. There wont be any problems as long as you behave."

Mox says, "I find that really fucking difficult to believe. Prove me wrong."

Wen Gao asks, "You're not a slave, you're a known traitor who is a prisoner by choice. Just please don't do anything stupid and behave?"

Mox says, "I'm a 'guest.'"

Wen Gao says, "TYPICALLY we execute traitors without question."

Mox says, "You guys have made Lady Yi Da into a liar."

Wen Gao says, "She isn't a liar. Now quit trying to complain about this situation, it isn't bad."

Mox says, "It's not what I was led to believe."

Mox says, "I was lied to. Tricked. Exploited."

Mox says, "This is dirty."
Calie gently approaches Mox,even if her tired manner, and annoyance due to lack of sleep and the pain on her head >which is why it's bandaged with blotches of blood on it<. She ignored all of that and locked the Collar as gently as possible, once Mox allowed her in the personal space. She hold the remote sync button a bit until it was done.

-Those remotes and collars are linked to the wards in Silver Lake, once i sync it a second time, you'll be loked at the same perimeters Alizeh is, besides the big snowy plains on the south of Silver Lake, and Silver Lake itself is off-limits, the collar will automatically shock you until you return, and my remote will get hot to alert me of it...
(Calie Marie)

Mox consented to all that stuff, and whatnot.
(Mox)

Calie would open the cell, don't ask how she has a key for it, maybe she is a secret warden, or just charmed the lock to open for her once approached. She holds Mox's hand softly, and leads her outside

-I'll take good care of her, like i did with Alizeh, i'll only report anything to you in case it's beinga problem, but i doubt it will be...i hope..i don't know anymore i feel my mind numb
(Calie Marie)

Wen locks the cell door and hands the key back off to the guards on duty. "Right, this is over and dealt with for now. Please behave and listen to them."
(Wen Gao)

Mox suppresses the urge to flip Wen Gao the bird. Instead, she just gives her the cold shoulder. Mox is /steaming/ mad.
(Mox)


(From behind the door:)

LOOC - Mox: (poor mox


Calie Marie asks, "Take care Wen..don't overdo your work ok?"

Calie Marie says, "I should follow my own advice"

Wen Gao asks, "Eh...maybe?"

Calie Marie says, "but as a Right Hand can't really do that"

Calie Marie says, "also..."

Mox says, "Yeah, I should follow my own advice too."
Calie takes off one of her gauntlets, showing a bright silver ring in her finger
-Guess who is a bride!
(Calie Marie)


Mox says, "Oh, err..."

Mox says, "I had written a letter to Lady Yi Da about how this all made me feel."

Calie Marie exclaims, "We'll talk about my brideness later Wen, see ya!"

Mox says, "I guess I'll give her that letter later."

Mox says, "They took my weapon."

Wen Gao asks, "Brideness?"

Mox asks, "Is that going to be sold off like a slave at the auction?"

Calie Marie says, "We'll talk about it later!~~"

Calie Marie says, "Xiao"



Jianghu - Ardent Cliff [SETTLEMENT]

The capital city of the Jianghu Colonies. Originally created by General Fan Zhengfu, it is now under control by Lord Regent Shiro Zheng. The city often has Fourfold soldiers wandering the area to serve as a policing force, and all of the craftsmanship and architecture sports beautiful Sheng design and structure. The entire area seems to light up brilliantly, especially at night.




Mox says, "Oh, good."

Sarasha asks, "Calie?"

Mox says, "Now I get the collar and the warm bed I was offered from the start."

Sarasha asks, "Who's this?"

Mox says, "Someone who's not in the greatest of moods right now."

Calie Marie says, "This is Mox"

Calie Marie says, "And nice Scythe dear"

Sarasha exclaims, "...!"

Sarasha says, "Ah."

Sarasha says, "Thanks."

Calie Marie says, "Now.."

Sarasha says, "Mox, Alizeh has been waiting to see you for a long time."

Sarasha says, "She really misses you."

Calie Marie says, "once Alizeh is up, we can see about giving you two a small home to call your own"
Mox writes on a sheet of paper.


Calie Marie says, "for privacy"

Mox says, "I'm glad to be here with Alizeh, at least, but I'm not exactly the most reasonable of people right now."

Sarasha says, "I see."

Mox says, "It is extremely difficult not to tell you to fuck off."

Sarasha says, "Whenever you want to talk."

Sarasha says, "Call for me."

Mox says, "Will do."

Sarasha says, "I'm Sarasha."

Calie Marie asks, "Tell me to fuck off, or him?"

Mox says, "Everybody."

Sarasha says, "Me of course."

Calie Marie says, "Gotcha coco girl"

Calie Marie says, "i'll show you where you can rest"

Sarasha says, "I'll be in the springs."

Mox says, "Valmasia for not trading for her, Gehenna for making me betray them in the first place, and Jianghu for lying to my face."

Calie Marie says, "lady Yi Da had no power to trade for Alizeh"

Calie Marie says, "she did over-step her permitions"

Calie Marie says, "i'm sorry for her givign false hopes over something she had nothing to do with"

Mox says, "I figured since she was supposedly one of the Qilin - the people who represent the Emperor, that that meant I could trust Jianghu."

Mox says, "She seemed trustworthy enough."

Mox says, "But that trust has been treated like dirt."

Mox says, "I'm worthless to them."

Mox says, "Trash to be taken out and executed."

Calie Marie says, "She is, but she over-stepped a situation that the Lord Regent and the Head Warden was dealing with"

Mox says, "The Lord Regent wasn't dealing with anything."

Calie Marie says, "He was"

Mox says, "If he was dealing with anything, then I would have been here sooner."

Mox says, "I tried for a year to get word to him."

Calie Marie says, "Dear"

Mox says, "To reach some kind of agreement."

Mox says, "Now he's dead because it took so long."

Calie Marie says, "I've been dealing with this for over a year, i talked to them personally, i was GIVEN the responsibility for Alizeh personally"

Calie Marie says, "and i did put my head in the line to save her from stupid things she did"

Calie Marie says, "a lot of times"

Mox says, "You have no idea how long I have been trying to resolve this - respectfully, kindly, peacefully. My kindness has been used against me so many times, Calie."

Mox says, "I'm sorry for the trouble it's all caused you, but I'm hurt."

Mox says, "I'm hurt really, really bad."

Calie Marie says, "I know you are"

Calie Marie says, "So it hurts to look you in the eye"

Calie Marie says, "but i'm doing it for Alizeh"

Calie Marie says, "So...she is asleep in that bed over there..."

Mox says, "I never did anything to hurt any of you. I came after the attack - but you were already gone."

Calie Marie says, "..if you want to slip in on her bed and snuggle with her"

Calie Marie says, "we don't judge"

Mox says, "I'll wait until she's awake. I wouldn't want to disturb her."

Calie Marie says, "Please"

Calie Marie says, "she will probably pee ehrself in excitement"

Mox says, "See, that's kind of the issue. I don't want to sleep in piss."

Calie Marie says, "oh"

Calie Marie says, "Fair enough"
Mox giggles despite the tension.
(Mox)


Calie Marie exclaims, "You'll have to change her sheets tho!"

Mox says, "All things considered... I think that's her responsibility."

Calie Marie says, "I'll make fresh coffee and tea for you two in the morning.."

Calie Marie says, "She will be too busy hugging you"

Calie Marie says, "to chance sheets"

Mox says, "Thanks."

Calie Marie says, "you might enchant her and use her as a magic backpack "

Mox says, "Hey Calie. I want to show you something."
Holds the button of the remote once again, re-syncing it

-And remember...the snow plains to the south is the limit an-- what is it?
(Calie Marie)

Mox fishes a leather collar out of her pocket, dangling it in front of her. "This is why Alizeh hates collars, and this is why I would have refused it under any other circumstance. Collars are for property. Not for people."
(Mox)

You pick up Collar.


Calie Marie says, "I'm well informed. She told me the whole story"

Mox says, "I carry this collar as a reminder that under no circumstance should I surrender my will to anybody else."

Mox says, "If the offer had been anything but death, I would have refused."

Mox says, "All things considered..."

Calie Marie says, "You can call me a monster that is collecting properties, if you wish, and makes you feel better."

Mox says, "It's probably a good thing I got that offer."

Mox says, "I'm not blaming you. I'm really not."

Mox says, "I blame Jianghu."

Calie Marie says, "I'm putting my neck in the line so Alizeh doesn't die, or Alizeh doesn't fall in crippling depression and kills herself, because you got killed"

Mox says, "Because of how everything is set up, this had to happen. And that sucks."

Calie Marie says, "We both have different opinions and different views"

Calie Marie says, "i received the short end of Valmasia, and you of Jianghu apparently"

Calie Marie says, "so lets just call it that"

Calie Marie says, "we just have very short sticks"

Mox says, "Valmasia sucks too."

Calie Marie says, "and thats why Genderswap exists"

Mox says, "Just not as much as everybody else sees it."

Mox says, "The Dreamer is trying to make Valmasia something good."

Calie Marie says, "Fitting"

Calie Marie says, "since that's a dream alright"

Mox says, "I like your sense of humor."

Calie Marie says, "You told me that once"

Mox says, "I'll be glad to talk to you about everything that's happened, Calie."

Mox says, "I promise - I've always acted on my best intentions, according to my convictions."

Calie Marie says, "Yes"

Mox says, "I've met good people from *every* side."

Calie Marie says, "Me too"

Calie Marie says, "but the last thing i'll do"

Calie Marie says, "is fight on the side of those that murdered my family, captured the remaining jsut to torture and kill in the end. Oh yeah and the houses burning as well"

Mox says, "I'm not asking you to like or join Valmasia. Anybody who does is stupid, unless they get the Cardinal's written word you won't be harmed."

Calie Marie says, "And i can't forget...Shiro almost dyign while saving those evacuating"

Mox says, "I didn't fight on Valmasia's side, either, Calie."

Mox says, "I didn't fight on anyone's side."

Mox says, "I just talked."

Calie Marie says, "The mark in your forehead indeed talks wonders, your studies on necromancy too"

Mox says, "I never studied necromancy."

Mox says, "I was going to, to save my friends."

Mox says, "Ra'atox and Ceres. Good souls."

Mox says, "I wasn't going to make new undead."

Calie Marie says, "Then its another lie to throw in the pile for Alizeh"

Mox says, "When they got necromancers, that wasn't necessary anymore."

Mox says, "No, no -"

Mox says, "This is all recent."

Calie Marie says, "Also"

Mox says, "She wouldn't have known."

Mox says, "My plans changed in her absence."

Calie Marie says, "Ra'atox wanted to fight me for 'betraying' him, alongside two others. Me and Shiro defended ourselves against their intents"

Mox says, "He changed, too."

Calie Marie says, "To worse"

Mox says, "He became a person."

Calie Marie says, "i suppose"

Mox says, "No, no..."

Mox says, "Ask Nakano."

Mox says, "She's the one who executed him in front of me."

Mox says, "Ask him what he was, when he died."

Calie Marie says, "I sorry dear but..."

Mox says, "I'm not sad about his death."

Mox says, "Don't worry about that."

Mox says, "I'm defending his character. He became a good person. He really did."

Mox says, "I taught him right from wrong."

Calie Marie asks, "...how can i call the oen taht raised his blade against me, on unfair numbers, over a presumption of 'betraying valmasia' while he knows that Valmasia massacred those i love?"

Calie Marie asks, "Do you know what people called Silver Lake's raid?"

Calie Marie says, "'a clerical error'"

Mox says, "At the end of the day, Calie, my best friend in Valmasia was the man who wanted peace with Silver Lake."

Mox says, "He was the very same one who accepted me into his own home."

Calie Marie asks, "Drew?"

Mox says, "When I went to Silver Lake to speak with you guys about it, the raid had already happened and you were already gone."

Mox says, "No."

Mox says, "Tarquin Brubeck. The Cardinal of the Grey Church."

Calie Marie says, "Didn't want the peace hard enough, seein as only ashes remaisn from our old home"

Mox says, "I walked those empty streets with Ra'atox beside me, looking for you all so that I could stop it from happening."

Mox says, "I'm sorry that I didn't get to you sooner."

Calie Marie says, "Say your sorries when you go to sleep for those that have a empty chair at our dinning table, Mox."

Calie Marie says, "Now if you excuse me, good night."

Mox says, "Good night, Calie. You can hate me for what I've done. I did what I had to for Alizeh."

Calie Marie says, "Glad you forgot about everyone else, then."
