  1. [01:15] Within the confines of the Lion's dorms does the discussion begins its early beatings. The waning creaks of the worn and experienced dormroom bring a speedy simmer as the Cirque does quick notions to set things straight.
  2.  
  3. No beating around the bush needed.
  4.  
  5. "Now then, I'm sure if y'saw the letter, y'know I'm not lookin' for money exactly," he mutters, a finger nail slinking forth to tap upon the surface of the wooden dining table. "I need somethin' done. Somethin' only a powerful warrior can do."
  6.  
  7. And if the history of the Rhoynish vying to oppress the forces of the darklord could mean anything, it had only posed as the ideal merit.
  8.  
  9. "As y'can tell, Azed's been missin' from the Academy for a long time. See, I've been on his case for a tad bit too long and I've come to discover many things." From his pockets, scrawled notes and illustrations are plastered upon the table.
  10.  
  11. Some depict a figure shifting deeper into what seems to be the woods around the Shadowmire, others seem to be written accounts and transcripts of occultic presences around the old groundskeeper. All coalescing into an odd shamble of detective work.
  12.  
  13. "See. He's done somethin' wrong, and I've come to rectify this," he chides. "I need him captured. This man had done people I care about wrong far too many times for me t'turn a blind eye. You'd be irked if he hurt one of your friends, wouldn't you?"
  14.  
  15. The figure shifts back, leaning precariously upon his chair as the frontal legs of it rise, the back two balancing with Jude's center of gravity. "My trail led me to believe he's in Galamea."
  16.  
  17. "I'm sure y'know where I'm gettin' at with this. Hm?"
  18.  
  19. "I'm not askin' y'to do anythin' huge. In fact I wanthim unhurt if y'can. Though I understand if y'have other means t'get him over." He shrugs. "And in exchange, I offer one of these."
  20.  
  21. And from his collection are flung two weapons. One sleek and thin, depicting the essence of the moon from its sharpened countenance. The other, a towering greatsword that had clear Valmasian presence in its creation.
  22.  
  23. "My apologies if they're just images, I'd offer t'show the whole thing but that'd mean havin' to go to my lot and pluck them out. It's a long walk, y'see."
  24. (Jude Cirque)
  25. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  26.  
  27. [01:22] He's lost everything.
  28.  
  29. All over one silly teen drama. Since? He's never been the same. Experiencing what he has, has broken the young Rhoynur and he seems beyond repair. Lately life has only given him more opposition as his enemies grow in numbers and strength, he finds himself in more life or death situations and is now ill equipped to deal with them.
  30.  
  31. The search for a placeholder weapon until he got his old one back was on.
  32.  
  33. Once informed of a potential chance at earning such, he jumped at the offer. He couldn't offer belongings or money, he had none. His body, and his skillset was all that he could put forward, and something like this was right up his alley.
  34.  
  35. "Oh, that's it?" He asks, "Hm," there's a bit of contemplation here. He doesn't know how difficult of a task he might be put on. Sure, Azed is weak, but who knows what could've happened to him now. He may've become a monster of sorts.
  36.  
  37. "I can get him to you, yea, jus' let me see what those swords look like." Eyes trail over to the images, Hain blinking a few times. Looking over them to see which would fit his style the best.
  38. (Hain Dayndros)
  39. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  40.  
  41. [01:28] "Yeah, that's pretty much it. See..." He shifts, eyes glinting a sudden glow of azure as his eyelids shifts to become something... more. "I've been able to sense things for a while. Spirits, essence, what normal people can't see."
  42.  
  43. "And my hunches on Azed were never baseless."
  44.  
  45. The frequent call outs of the occultist defending witch. Never had he been one to bear it as something subtle. If anything, he had put the claim forth bluntly.
  46.  
  47. And as the inch of interest shine through, the Cirque finally stands forth. Normally lazy, a newfound sense of pursuance provides him enough energy for a shirt retrieval. "Alright. Lemme grab them then. Y'wouldn't mind waitin' a sec, right?"
  48. (Jude Cirque)

  54. [01:30] Jude Cirque says, "I get that a lot."
  55. [01:30] Jude Cirque exclaims, "Either way!"
  56. [01:30] Jude Cirque says, "This first one is a little archaic. The old weilder gave it t'me as a gift."
  57. [01:31] Jude Cirque says, "It's bound at the moment, but I'm havin' Majin fix that."
  58. [01:31] Jude Cirque says, "So if y'chose this one, it'll be ready to use by the time y'get it."

  65. [01:31] {Item} You drop Naegling, Sword of the Ancients.
  66. [01:32] Jude Cirque says, "One of these. Whichever picks your fancy if I can get a captured Azed safe and sound."
  67. [01:33] Hain Dayndros says, "Alright, I think I want Naegling honestly, but the other one is really eye catchin'."
  68. [01:33] Jude Cirque says, "I think the Naegling isn't even at full power either."
  69. [01:34] Jude Cirque says, "It's pretty old from where I found it."
  70. [01:34] Hain Dayndros says, "Yea, I'll go with Naegling. I'll catch that Azed guy easy."

  76. [01:34] Jude Cirque says, "Grand, I'll keep this safe and reserved for you."
  77. [01:34] Jude Cirque says, "If you're sure of a date, just send me a letter."
  78. [01:34] Jude Cirque says, "I'll ready up my banishment crew."
  79. [01:35] Jude Cirque says, "Ah, and as an added bonus..."
  80. [01:35] Hain Dayndros exclaims, "Alright no problem!"
  81. [01:35] Jude Cirque says, "If y'need any potion to pull this off, just lemme know."
  82. [01:35] Jude Cirque says, "I'll pass y'whatever y'need."
  83. [01:35] Jude Cirque says, "Attunement, reed, whatever it is."
  84. [01:35] Hain Dayndros says, "I should be fine, it shouldn't take long."
  85. [01:35] Jude Cirque says, "Grand, alright."
  86. [01:36] Jude Cirque says, "Don't get hurt now."
  87. [01:36] Jude Cirque says, "I dunno what he's capable of now."
  88. [01:36] Hain Dayndros says, "I could've beaten Azed when I was a child."
  89. [01:36] Hain Dayndros says, "It shouldn't be -too- hard."
  90. [01:36] Jude Cirque says, "Godspeed then."
  91. [01:36] Jude Cirque says, "Oh, and..."
  92. [01:36] Jude Cirque says, "Tell Isbrand I say hi."
  93. [01:36] Hain Dayndros says, "I will, no problem."
  94. [01:36] Jude Cirque says, "Lovely! Okay we should be done."
  95. [01:36] Hain Dayndros says, "Thanks for havin' me."
  96. [01:37] Jude nods.
