- [00:43] Tih-Noctem says, "Come. I haven't all day."
- [00:43] Theodore Khan asks, "Friend, I would take that in full if it was up to me. But I cannot. You can ask Salvas Voss though?"

- [00:48] Theodore Khan asks, "You comin' or what?"
- [00:48] Syracuse Fengari says, "Yes, didn't even make me have to pay."
- [00:48] Donovan Invidia says, "Guess I shouldn't have put that eye in his throat."
- [00:48] Tih-Noctem says, "I'd escort the vampire. She wishes to feed on your catch."
- [00:48] Theodore Khan says, "..."
- [00:48] Donovan Invidia says, "That's not at all what I'm going to do."
- [00:48] Tih-Noctem says, "Then leave, and stop meddling with my affairs."
- [00:48] Donovan Invidia says, "Theo there said if he walks out I can eat him."
- [00:48] Theodore Khan says, "I said they can feed if the captured tries to escape."
- [00:48] Tih-Noctem says, "..Mn."
- [00:49] Theodore thumbs up Donovan.

- (Sugarboy)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [00:49] Donovan Invidia says, "He ate a siren in front of me.."
- [00:49] Syracuse Fengari says, "I'm the same with Theodore."
- [00:50] Syracuse Fengari says, "Hate'em, but then on occassion I like him."
- [00:50] Syracuse Fengari asks, "Also, a Siren? Did that irritate you cause of what you are or because you wanted to eat them?"
- [00:50] Syracuse Fengari says, "Also, Sugarboy! Glad we caught you. I didn't want you to die when we go cleanse out those jungles."
- [00:51] Sugarboy says, "Why does everyone keep saying that"
- [00:51] Syracuse Fengari says, "Because it's the truth."
- [00:52] Sugarboy says, "Ain't nobody lettin me fight beside my people and die honorably"
- [00:52] Sugarboy says, "I'm old enough, I think I deserve that"
- [00:52] Syracuse Fengari asks, "Oh?"
- [00:53] Syracuse Fengari says, "Well, then I will urge for you to gain the write to executrion by combat."
- [00:53] Sugarboy says, "That'd be nice, or wait until my wife hears and comes to bite everyone's head off"
- [00:54] Sugarboy says, "I'm real scared what she's gonna do when she finds me"
- [00:54] Syracuse Fengari says, "Well, if she went through the right channels she could get here."
- [00:55] Sugarboy says, "Luckily I got one piece of paper, to write one hell of a love letter to save my ass before it becomes grass"
- [00:56] Donovan Invidia says, "Oh-"

- [00:56] Donovan Invidia says, "It was because he ate it but I wanted to eat it."
- [00:56] Donovan Invidia says, ".. I could've immediately healed the damn brand across my chest if he'd let me eat it."
- [00:56] Sugarboy says, "Free to go? All I had to hear"

- [01:14] Donovan Invidia says, "You know I've never been truth potioned before."
- [01:14] Shizuko Voss whispers: If only Crafthold were to fully accept Salvas and I. I wouldn't be here.
- [01:14] Donovan Invidia says, "For literally any reason."

- [01:15] Artaghh exclaims, "I walked in'ta Huang as a knight once!"
- [01:15] Artaghh says, "Tha' was fun."
- [01:15] Shizuko Voss whispers: I was offered a place there multiple times before I became a ghoul.
- [01:15] Donovan Invidia says, "And told that one neries that actually did defect to Huangzhou that there was another Neries was waiting in the caves for them."
- [01:15] Kit Voss says, "I was escorted once and questioned. Then they gave me maki roll."
- [01:16] Chaaca Khan says, "I pay people to drop drugged food in huang."
- [01:16] Chroma Zanders says, "I used to have secret rendevous there with my first love."
- [01:16] Artaghh says, "Napped on a bench, nearly go' arrested. Slept through gettin' arrested, walked ou'."

- [01:16] Kit Voss says, "They don't cook too well."
- [01:16] Chroma Zanders says, "As an Initiate, mind you."
- [01:16] Donovan Invidia says, "I just walked right out again unscathed."
- [01:16] Chaaca Khan says, "As you do."
- [01:16] Donovan Invidia says, "Literally no one questioned it and I'm still surprised that worked."
- [01:16] Artaghh says, "Confidence is key Don."
- [01:16] Shizuko Voss whispers: Salvas is an undead necromancer, even you said that it was a fight against undead and for the spirits.
- [01:16] Artaghh says, "Sometimes ye' jus' make it happen."
- [01:16] Chroma Zanders says, "Aye."
- [01:16] Chaaca Khan says, "I mean, it's huang. They're all morons over there."
- [01:17] Donovan Invidia says, "Secret vampire crouching jellyfish."
- [01:17] Donovan Invidia says, "Or something along those lines."
- [01:17] Artaghh exclaims, "Makes sense'ta me!"
- [01:17] Syracuse Fengari says, "They're. . . Malleable."
- [01:17] Chaaca Khan says, "Yea, something along those lines."
- [01:17] Chaaca Khan says, "..."
- [01:17] Chaaca Khan says, "Wait, I need to go tell Freya something."
- [01:17] Donovan Invidia says, "I'm also malleable."
- [01:17] Sugarboy whispers: I just don't want them in Gehenna, truthfully.
- [01:17] Donovan Invidia says, "And so is Blobby-"
- [01:17] Donovan Invidia says, "Oh by the way Syracuse you have a sibling."
- [01:17] Shizuko Voss whispers: I am sorry for my husband's betrayal of your trust.
- [01:18] Chaaca Khan asks, "Artaghh, mind holding onto the controls for me?"
- [01:18] Shizuko Voss whispers: I wouldn't lead you on like that.
- [01:18] Donovan Invidia says, "I don't know if it's a boy or a girl or if it even has a gender."
- [01:18] Artaghh says, "Yeah sure."
- [01:18] Chroma Zanders asks, "Mudge--?"
- [01:18] Chroma Zanders asks, "Wait...wasn't he captured?"
- [01:18] Donovan Invidia says, "No not Mudge.. I haven't seen him in a while--"
- [01:18] Donovan Invidia asks, "Was he?"
- [01:18] Artaghh says, "Aye."
- [01:18] Donovan Invidia says, "I ought go walk into Huangzhou again."
- [01:18] Chaaca Khan says, "Right, I will be right back."
- [01:18] Donovan Invidia says, "Sneak him right back out."
- [01:18] Syracuse Fengari asks, "I do?"
- [01:18] Syracuse Fengari asks, "Who?"
- [01:18] Artaghh says, "I....think he's dead Don."
- [01:18] Donovan Invidia says, "No.. They wouldn't kill Mudge."
- [01:18] Shizuko Voss whispers: Do you want ink?
- [01:18] Sugarboy just grumbles as he taps at the page.
- (Sugarboy)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [01:19] Syracuse Fengari asks, "Mudge?"
- [01:19] Donovan Invidia says, "Not unless I really managed to break him."
- [01:19] Sugarboy whispers: No thanks, I need time to think.
- [01:19] Sugarboy whispers: And it was my fault for trusting him.
- [01:19] Donovan Invidia says, "If they've cleared the madness from his mind they'd accept him again."
- [01:19] Donovan Invidia says, "He used to be rather prominent there I think-"
- [01:19] Donovan Invidia says, "A man called Pierce Latorre."
- [01:19] Artaghh asks, "Huh, really?"
- [01:19] Sugarboy whispers: I should've just headed home, but I thought he wanted to genuinely help.
- [01:19] Artaghh exclaims, "Tha's neat!"
- [01:19] Syracuse Fengari asks, "Pierce Latorre?"
- [01:19] Sugarboy whispers: Show's this old fool.
- [01:20] Shizuko Voss whispers: He did... just not in the way you wanted.
- [01:20] Donovan Invidia says, "Yep."
- [01:20] Syracuse Fengari asks, "Huh, so that was Mudge?"
- [01:20] Artaghh asks, "Did ye' name'm Mudge then?"
- [01:20] Shizuko Voss whispers: He wanted you healed and then away from the war.
- [01:20] Donovan Invidia says, "Yep."
- [01:20] Artaghh says, "Makes sense'ta me."
- [01:20] Kit Voss asks, "Why Mudge?"
- [01:20] Donovan Invidia exclaims, "I had to find a suiting name for a pet of course!"
- [01:20] Donovan Invidia says, "Lizard names are difficult to come up with."
- [01:20] Donovan Invidia whispers something.
- [01:20] Kit Voss says, "Hnn.. Yeah I guess."
- [01:20] Sugarboy whispers: This is killing me, on the inside, Shizuko
- [01:20] Donovan Invidia says, ".. He also smelled."
- [01:20] Artaghh says, "Aye, I'd name a lizard somethin' simple."
- [01:20] Donovan Invidia says, "After uh.."
- [01:20] Artaghh says, "Like...."
- [01:20] Donovan Invidia says, "Well, years in a prison cell."
- [01:20] Sugarboy whispers: Being helpless, left to rot in a cell.
- [01:20] Syracuse Fengari says, ". . ."
- [01:20] Syracuse Fengari says, "Yeah. . ."
- [01:20] Sugarboy whispers: I haven't felt this despair in decades.
- [01:21] Donovan Invidia says, "I used to play with him every day and give him lots of attention."
- [01:21] Artaghh says, "Iguana Tom."
- [01:21] Syracuse Fengari says, "You don't smell well after years in a cell."
- [01:21] Donovan Invidia says, "I suppose he wouldn't be a ghoul anymore by now.."
- [01:21] Donovan Invidia says, "If he's still alive."
- [01:21] Artaghh says, "Aye, probably jus' a regular lizard."
- [01:21] Chroma Zanders says, "They like to detox prisooners."
- [01:21] Shizuko Voss whispers: I don't want you in this cell either.
- [01:21] Donovan Invidia says, "Waste of a hunter. How irritating."
- [01:21] Sugarboy whispers: I would actually rather march out and get butchered to pieces and be over with it all.
- [01:22] Artaghh exclaims, "Ye'll ge' a new Mudge Don!"
- [01:22] Artaghh says, "No worries."
- [01:22] Kit Voss asks, "How many.. Err.. pets do you have?"
- [01:22] Sugarboy whispers: My kids, they'll be fine
- [01:22] Sugarboy whispers: Loss is something they'll have to learn eventually
- [01:22] Shizuko Voss whispers: I was imprisoned by Britta in Huang. I know some of the frustration...
- [01:22] Donovan lifted a hand to place on Syracuse' head, ruffling his hair a bit. She had noticed the mentions he made of being imprisoned, it seemed, and offered.. Comfort? Sure that's what she was going for.
- (Donovan Invidia)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [01:22] Donovan Invidia says, "I only had the one."
- [01:22] Shizuko Voss whispers: I doubt my time will be long, given my neutrality is forfeit.
- [01:23] Shizuko Voss whispers: My Salvas might not come home from the war one of these days too.
- [01:23] Kit Voss says, "Oh? It sounded like you'd have more than one."
- [01:23] Sugarboy whispers: Salvas is strong.. I wouldn't worry about him.
- [01:23] Chroma Zanders says, "Mhm"
- [01:23] Donovan Invidia says, "No, no.. Well."
- [01:24] Chroma Zanders says, "Going to head off."
- [01:24] Donovan Invidia says, "A long while ago, sort of."
- [01:24] Chroma Zanders says, "Everyone be safe."
- [01:24] Donovan Invidia says, "I had a lovely loyal hound."
- [01:24] Shizuko Voss whispers: Even walking to Crafthold I fear for my safety.
- [01:24] Shizuko Voss whispers: I'm not fit for war.
- [01:24] Donovan Invidia says, "Her name was Galal, and she was one of my favorite ghouls."
- [01:24] Artaghh asks, "Oooh, were they a goo' dog?"
- [01:24] Sugarboy whispers: That makes two of us.
- [01:24] Artaghh asks, "Did ye' give'm back scratches?"
- [01:25] Donovan Invidia says, "She was indeed a good dog."
- [01:25] Sugarboy whispers: But I can't let that stop me.
- [01:25] Donovan Invidia says, ".. But unless you count biting as back scratches then no, I did not."
- [01:25] Artaghh says, "..."
- [01:25] Artaghh says, "Half an' half."
- [01:25] Kit Voss says, "Geeze."
- [01:25] Artaghh says, "Depends on'ta bite."
- [01:25] Shizuko Voss whispers: I have to be strong for my husband.
- [01:25] Artaghh says, "There's good bites an' bad bites."
- [01:25] Shizuko Voss whispers: ... Do you need anything at all?
- [01:25] Syracuse tilted his eyes up from the table for a few moments as his hair was ruffled. Still not used to it, though he didn't seem to mind.
- (Syracuse Fengari)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [01:25] Sugarboy whispers: No
- [01:25] Kit Voss asks, "How do you know of this Artaggh? Do you bite pets too?"
- [01:25] Donovan Invidia says, "I drank from her a lot-"
- [01:25] Artaghh says, "Had an Oscuri wife."
- [01:25] Donovan Invidia says, ".. Aheheh."
- [01:26] Shizuko Voss whispers: If you will not hit me...
- [01:26] Shizuko Voss whispers: At least a hug?
- [01:26] Artaghh asks, "So gettin' drank hurt?"
- [01:26] Shakes his head.
- "Yeah okay. I see how it is."
- (Kit Voss)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [01:27] Sugarboy pauses his tapping on the page, his head turning slightly as he looks in her direction behind the shades, a huff coming out and a small shake of his head.
- (Sugarboy)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [01:28] Donovan Invidia says, "Erh.."
- [01:28] Donovan Invidia says, "I assume it hurts."
- [01:28] Donovan Invidia says, "When I drink my own blood it stings quite a bit."
- [01:29] Shizuko Voss whispers: At least - we were able to heal you...
- [01:29] Syracuse Fengari says, "Honestly."
- [01:29] Syracuse Fengari says, "It's refreshing."
- [01:29] Sugarboy whispers: Mmm.. Thank you for that.
- [01:29] Kit Voss asks, "Why the hell would you bite yourself?"
- [01:29] Donovan Invidia asks, ".. Oh have you tried your own blood then?"
- [01:29] Donovan Invidia says, "Or-"
- [01:29] Donovan Invidia asks, "Are you refering to my drinking from you?"
- [01:30] Shizuko Voss whispers: I doubt if you're released from this that you won't hold hatred for me.
- [01:30] Syracuse Fengari says, "You, to me. Sure I felt like I was dying."
- [01:30] Syracuse Fengari says, "Yet, after-wards you get a rush cause you ain't dead."
- [01:30] Syracuse Fengari says, "Even trade off if you ask me."
- [01:31] Kit Voss says, "I prefer maki rolls."
- [01:31] Sugarboy whispers: I can't hate for long, and I don't hate you.
- [01:31] Artaghh says, "Back in my village....thirty five or so years ago, alderman used'ta bleed the sick'ta ge' out all the tainted blood."
- [01:31] Artaghh says, "Usually they jus' died."
- [01:31] Kit Voss says, "Or just anything with fish."
- [01:31] Artaghh says, "Sometimes they go' be'er."
- [01:31] Sugarboy whispers: I just... Need some time to steady myself.
- [01:31] Artaghh says, "Pro'lly real purifyin' like in its own way."
- [01:31] Shizuko Voss whispers: I don't hate you either... I - I need to go as well.
- [01:31] Sugarboy whispers: Take care.. And enjoy your time with Salvas..
- [01:32] Shizuko Voss whispers: I hope you see your family again.
- [01:32] Donovan Invidia says, "Oh.."
- [01:32] Sugarboy whispers: So do I..
- [01:32] Syracuse Fengari says, "Well.. . It just hit me the first time was like that, the second was just amazing all around."
- [01:33] Artaghh asks, "Wha's drinkin' blood feel like'ta a vampire Don?"
- [01:33] Shizuko turns to leave the jail cell. She marches out with tears running down her face, seemingly trying to hide it from the others.
- (Shizuko Voss)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [01:33] Syracuse gave a lazy salute to the sky, thanks Belial for those dope moon drugs.
- (Syracuse Fengari)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [01:33] Syracuse Fengari says, "Wonder what that meant."
- [01:34] Donovan Invidia says, "The closest equivalent is probably uh.."
- [01:34] Kit Voss says, "Meh. I should probably go. Nice to chat even if it was for a little while. Later guys."
- [01:34] Artaghh exclaims, "See ya Kit!"
- [01:35] Kit Voss says, "See you later Artaghh."
- [01:35] Artaghh says, "Nice kid...wait he's like thirty."
- [01:35] Donovan Invidia says, "Erhm."
- [01:36] Artaghh asks, "Tryin'ta fin' a good word fer it Don?"
- [01:37] Donovan Invidia says, "Well no actually. It just sounds odd in my mind."
- [01:37] Syracuse Fengari says, "Then say it aloud."
- [01:37] Artaghh exclaims, "Hey, I don' judge!"
- [01:37] Shuz-tah says, "EXCUSE"
- [01:37] Shuz-tah exclaims, "Have you seen a beautful Nagual man!"
- [01:37] Artaghh says, "Hey Ser Shuz."
- [01:37] Shuz-tah says, "*Under a spell clearly&"
- [01:37] Artaghh says, "Oh...uh....aye? "
- [01:37] Shuz-tah
- (Shuz-tah)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [01:37] Artaghh says, "I think he's in Crafthold."
- [01:37] Shuz-tah exclaims, "Tiz!"
- [01:37] Shuz-tah exclaims, "That is his name!"
- [01:38] Artaghh exclaims, "Tiz, aye!"
- [01:38] Shuz-tah exclaims, "I want to see his beauty!"
- [01:38] Artaghh says, "He was speedin' abou' outside, so maybe Crafthold, or nappin'."
- [01:38] Shuz-tah says, "OH YES"
- [01:38] Syracuse Fengari says, "Try the bars."
- [01:38] Artaghh exclaims, "Aye!"
- [01:38] Syracuse Fengari says, "I like that guy, he seems to have a clear head."
- [01:38] Artaghh exclaims, "No doub'!"
- [01:38] Artaghh says, "..."
- [01:39] Syracuse Fengari says, "Such focus."
- [01:39] Artaghh says, "Okay I los' my train'a thought."
- [01:39] Artaghh exclaims, "Right!"
- [01:39] Syracuse Fengari says, "Donny was gonna tell us about drinking people."
- [01:39] Artaghh says, "I ain' goin'ta fin' anythin' ye' say wierd Don."
- [01:39] Artaghh exclaims, "Yer cool!"
- [01:39] Donovan Invidia says, "Yeah.. Just- in context the thought sort of went sideways and I was like"
- [01:40] Donovan Invidia asks, "What?"
- [01:40] Donovan Invidia asks, "But no- Everyone here knows how babies are made right?"
- [01:40] Sugarboy says, "yep"
- [01:41] Artaghh says, "Yup."
- [01:41] Artaghh asks, "Violent sexual intercourse for three hours right?"
- [01:42] Sugarboy asks, "Three hours all ya got, Artaghh?"
- [01:42] Donovan Invidia says, "Yeah it's like the feeling you get if you do that right except instead of people you kind of just start thinkiing of what you're drinkning from as food or uh.. Objects. Impersonal."
- [01:42] Syracuse Fengari says, ". . ."
- [01:42] Donovan Invidia says, "For me personally I think it's better."
- [01:43] Artaghh exclaims, "Oh, so like foreplay wit' food!"
- [01:43] Donovan Invidia says, "That-"
- [01:43] Donovan Invidia says, "Like I said."
- [01:43] Artaghh says, "An' thank ye' Sugar, I am a cripple."
- [01:43] Donovan Invidia says, "The thought is weird in my mind."
- [01:43] Artaghh says, "Three hours is a lo'."
- [01:43] Artaghh says, "Nonsense Don, e'eryone's go' their kinks."
- [01:43] Artaghh says, "Yers is more wholesome than mos'."
- [01:43] Donovan Invidia says, "I- Don't.."
- [01:43] Donovan Invidia says, "THat.."
- [01:43] Syracuse scratched his chin, thinking about it for a while. Finally the mad-man came to a conclusion.
- (Syracuse Fengari)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [01:43] Donovan Invidia says, "Doesn't arrouse me like that."
- [01:43] Syracuse Fengari says, "It sounds amazing."
- [01:43] Artaghh asks, "Aye, ye' said it arouses ye' even be'er?"
- [01:43] Syracuse Fengari says, "I wonder. . . "
- [01:43] Donovan Invidia says, ".. It -feels- better yes.. To have a meal."
- [01:44] Artaghh exclaims, "Then there's no shame in tha' makin' ye' feel good!"
- [01:44] Artaghh says, "E'eryone needs somethin' tha' makes'm feel good."
- [01:44] Syracuse Fengari says, "A greater truth, has never been spoken."
- [01:45] Donovan Invidia says, "Mm."
- [01:45] Donovan Invidia says, "I feel as though unfortunately I've built a sort of tolerance.."
- [01:45] Artaghh exclaims, "Then ye' jus' need'ta drink stronger stuff Don!"
- [01:45] Artaghh exclaims, "Like dragons!"
- [01:46] Donovan Invidia says, "Yes. Like dragons."
- [01:46] Artaghh exclaims, "Three headed giant lions!"
- [01:46] Sugarboy says, "Or spice up how you drink"
- [01:46] Artaghh exclaims, "Sea monsters!"
- [01:46] Donovan Invidia says, "Or particularly emotional creatures.."
- [01:46] Artaghh exclaims, "Oh, so Qilin!"
- [01:46] Artaghh says, "Vedran ate a QIlin a week ago."
- [01:46] Artaghh says, "He seemed real energetic afterwards."
- [01:46] Donovan Invidia asks, "Did he?"
- [01:46] Artaghh exclaims, "Aye!"
- [01:46] Donovan Invidia says, "Mm."
- [01:46] Sugarboy asks, "Which one?"
- [01:47] Donovan Invidia whispers something.
- [01:47] Artaghh says, "One'a the newer ones....name name..."
- [01:47] Artaghh says, "Hmm."
- [01:47] Artaghh exclaims, "Yiren!"
- [01:47] Artaghh says, "Tha's it."
- [01:48] Sugarboy says, "Oh damn, I guess he doesn't need those boosters.."
- [01:48] Donovan Invidia says, "Mm.."
- [01:48] Sugarboy exclaims, "Shit that was the whole reason I was collecting lightning crystals!"
- [01:48] Donovan Invidia says, "I've yet to taste a qilin."
- [01:48] Donovan Invidia says, "I would like to try one."
- [01:48] Donovan Invidia says, "Oh-"
- [01:48] Artaghh exclaims, "We'll catch ye' one one'a these days!"
- [01:48] Sugarboy says, "Holy fuck what a waste of a trip"
- [01:48] Donovan Invidia exclaims, "Aha!"
- [01:48] Artaghh says, "Also damn Sugar."
- [01:48] Artaghh says, "Awful luck."
- [01:48] Syracuse Fengari whispers something.
- [01:49] Sugarboy says, "Fucking tell me about it"
- [01:49] Donovan Invidia says, "You got an eye put in your neck over lightning crystals for a dead qilin, beautiful"
- [01:49] Donovan Invidia whispers something.
- [01:49] Artaghh asks, "Ye' go' enoug' alcohol in there Sugar?"
- [01:49] Donovan Invidia whispers something.
- [01:49] Sugarboy says, "I swiped a bottle from Shizuko"
- [01:49] Artaghh says, "I'll have Chaac bring ye' some soothereed an' biscuits later then."
- [01:49] Syracuse Fengari whispers something.
- [01:49] Sugarboy says, "Yo, so we talked about conjugal visits"
- [01:49] Sugarboy asks, "Is that something we can arrange?"
- [01:50] Artaghh exclaims, "Hell yeah!"
- [01:50] Donovan Invidia says, "Oh-"
- [01:50] Donovan Invidia asks, "You know what's really good?"
- [01:50] Artaghh asks, "Wha'?"
- [01:50] Donovan Invidia says, "Feeding a person my blood then drinking from them."
- [01:51] Sugarboy says, "Now that's kinky"
- [01:51] Artaghh exclaims, "Oh, so like...ye' feel lightheaded, then ye' ge' a rush!"
- [01:51] Artaghh says, "Tha' makes sense."
- [01:51] Syracuse rubbed the old burns on his neck, scars from his time in a collar. He'd chuckling for a few moments.
- (Syracuse Fengari)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [01:51] Chroma Zanders asks, "What's up crackas?"
- [01:51] Artaghh says, "Also I'll have Chaac arrange yer conjugal visits Sugarboy."
- [01:51] Donovan Invidia says, "Well no, it's not so much a light-headed feeling.. I uh.."
- [01:51] Artaghh says, "Tha's wha' boys do fer their boys."
- [01:51] Donovan Invidia says, "I produce a lot of blood."
- [01:51] Chroma Zanders asks, "So what's up?"
- [01:51] Artaghh asks, "Oh?"
- [01:52] Donovan Invidia says, "I could sustain three ghouls if I wanted to."
- [01:52] Artaghh asks, "Like more than normal?"
- [01:52] Sugarboy exclaims, "I appreciate it Artaghh!"
- [01:52] Chroma Zanders says, "...."
- [01:52] Artaghh says, "Bet Sugar."
- [01:52] Artaghh says, "Bet."
- [01:52] Donovan Invidia says, "Most vampires can only handle feeding one."
- [01:52] Chroma Zanders asks, "Oh?"
- [01:52] Artaghh asks, "Tha' means ye' mus' be like, a super vampire?"
- [01:52] Donovan Invidia says, "Quite so."
- [01:52] Chroma Zanders says, "That's interesting. But also a bit intense."
- [01:52] Artaghh says, "I like it."
- [01:52] Donovan Invidia says, "But ah-"
- [01:52] Donovan Invidia asks, "The reason it's good?"
- [01:52] Artaghh asks, "Mhmm?"
- [01:53] Syracuse listened closely.
- (Syracuse Fengari)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [01:53] Donovan Invidia says, "My blood offers visions, as my father's did before me."
- [01:53] Chroma Zanders asks, "...Visions?"
- [01:53] Donovan Invidia exclaims, "Indeed!"
- [01:53] Chroma Zanders asks, "Like, Oscuri dreams?"
- [01:53] Shuz-tah exclaims, "WHERE?!"
- [01:53] Shuz-tah exclaims, "DID HE GO!"
- [01:53] Donovan Invidia says, "I wouldn't know, never had Oscuri dreams."
- [01:53] Chroma Zanders says, "Shuz....please, not now--"
- [01:54] Shuz-tah says, "I NEED TO FI"
- [01:54] Donovan Invidia says, "But I do know what my father told me of those visions.. They were- Memories."
- [01:54] Chroma Zanders says, "Pffft."
- [01:54] Artaghh asks, "Blood memories?"
- [01:54] Chroma Zanders asks, "And, oh?"
- [01:54] Donovan Invidia says, "The lives of each vampire tied to the blood of cain."
- [01:54] Chroma Zanders says, "The memory of that blood..."
- [01:54] Artaghh exclaims, "Tha' means ye' are a blood mystic Don! A true witch!"
- [01:54] Donovan Invidia says, "And that of their prey."
- [01:54] Chroma Zanders says, "That's ALOT of lives."
- [01:54] Syracuse Fengari says, "All connected together. . ."
- [01:54] Donovan Invidia says, "Indeed."
- [01:54] Donovan Invidia says, "Each new vampire adds to the pool."
- [01:54] Artaghh asks, "Do ye' take tips from the visions?"
- [01:54] Chroma Zanders asks, "Eugh...you have to see Aspen's too?"
- [01:54] Donovan Invidia says, "Oh- There are omens, on occasion."
- [01:54] Artaghh says, "..."
- [01:54] Artaghh says, "I don' wanna see nothin'a Aspens."
- [01:54] Donovan Invidia says, ".. I.. don't personally see them.."
- [01:54] Chroma Zanders says, "Ah, good."
- [01:54] Syracuse Fengari asks, "Who does?"
- [01:54] Artaghh asks, "Omens?"
- [01:54] Chroma Zanders says, "The consumer."
- [01:54] Chroma Zanders says, "I think."
- [01:54] Donovan Invidia says, "Erh.."
- [01:55] Donovan Invidia says, "It's complicated. The person who drinks my blood does indeed get those visions-"
- [01:55] Donovan Invidia says, "And a rush, too. I recall clearly my own days as a thrall."
- [01:55] Syracuse Fengari says, "Cause like. . . I've seen more visions than I can count already. . . I can't imagine th-"
- [01:55] Artaghh says, "Mos' interestin' things are compllicated."
- [01:55] Syracuse Fengari asks, "A rush you say?"
- [01:55] Chroma Zanders says, "Oh boy."
- [01:55] Chroma Zanders says, "You've set him off."
- [01:55] Artaghh asks, "So vampire blood is like drugs bu' wit' shite withdrawal?"
- [01:56] Syracuse Fengari says, "I've been off for half an hour."
- [01:56] Chroma Zanders says, "That's what I've heard true. Recalling Kiha's withdrawl..it wasn't pleasant"
- [01:56] Donovan Invidia says, ".. Yes. Vampire blood is like drugs except- Stronger."
- [01:56] Donovan Invidia says, "Far stronger."
- [01:56] Artaghh exclaims, "Makes sense'ta me, vampires are strong!"
- [01:56] Chroma Zanders asks, "Makes sense, you all feel much more than the average Agathan, no?"
- [01:56] Artaghh says, "They'd need strong drugs."
- [01:57] Donovan Invidia says, ".. Well vampires don't get to enjoy vampire blood's properties.."
- [01:57] Donovan Invidia says, "Though I still drink it."
- [01:57] Syracuse Fengari says, "So. . . You get to get the bang of bang when ya'drink. You can give people super drugs then get an even bigger bang drinking it back."
- [01:57] Syracuse Fengari says, "Sounds pretty great, I wonder what the withdrawals like."
- [01:57] Artaghh says, "Tha's cause ye' are a gourmet Don! To ye', such is a passion, an' therefore worthy'a pursuit."
- [01:58] Chroma Zanders says, "I've never been too fond of blood. Not after that heart."
- [01:58] Donovan Invidia says, "Quite so- And yes, it is quite great. On occasion I manage to follow those who have visions into that uh.."
- [01:58] Chroma Zanders says, "The iron will never truly leave my pallete."
- [01:58] Donovan Invidia says, "State."
- [01:58] Donovan Invidia says, "And see what they see."
- [01:58] Artaghh exclaims, "Oooh, tha' sounds fancy!"
- [01:58] Donovan Invidia says, "The withdrawals though-"
- [01:59] Syracuse Fengari says, "Don't skimp on the details."
- [01:59] Donovan Invidia says, "I suppose I should tell this in story form."
- [01:59] Donovan Invidia says, "It might make a bit more sense if I do."
- [01:59] Chroma Zanders says, "We've got nothing else to do."
- [01:59] Artaghh says, "I remember I tried'ta quit drinkin' fer a while when my son was born. Then my fiance disappeared on me an' I go' back to it."
- [01:59] Chroma Zanders says, "Recant Boogeyman."
- [02:00] Artaghh says, "Smooth sailin' e'er since..."
- [02:00] Artaghh exclaims, "Aye, story time!"
- [02:00] Chroma slides his chair back, leaning his feet onto the table as he looks to Donny. He was intrigued to say the least.

- [02:01] Syracuse took a seat, looking over at Donovan for them to start. As he thought abou it he figured he could ask them the question he'd been wondering about later. It'd probably not get him killed, probably.

- [02:03] Ser Artaghh would turn his chair towards the sirenian vampire with a light scrape of the wood against the stone floor, puffing away lightly at his corn cob pipe as he focused his remaining eye intently on Donovan.

- [08:56] Sugarboy would open his eyes as he awoke in the prison cells of Dawn. The cot provided wasn't too kind for his back and he'd wearily sit up and prop himself against the wall.
- Back in Dawn, in the worst circumstances. He had seen how Dawn treated it's prisoners, the utmost brutality. All of it put a damper on his spirits, he wanted to be home with his wife in kids, cooking a fresh meal for them all, he wanted freedom. It was hard to keep that numbing feeling that lingered beneath the surface.
- It was the same emotionlessness he was stricken with when he first woke up in Dawn, it offered an escape from the pain of the cell, promises of security to ride out the wave. It was all tantalizing with the current affair of things.
- He couldn't though, he'd cling to his metaphorical fire, thinking of returning home to Euyitl. He couldn't sit this war out, and he could only wonder if he could find a way to escape.
- He had to me more clever than when handling Salvas. A hand would run through his hair and he would let out a loud sigh, he really wasn't happy with how he had acted. Making himself a blood bomb? Taking his own life to avoid being taken prisoner? Never to see his wife or kids again? No that's not what he wanted to go, he was going to make it back to them.
- He had to survive.

- [10:30] The old Ookami would approach the cell, the one that his brother from another mother was resting in. Laying his both hands to hold the metal rods that complete the cell's door.
- He approaches his face from the cell to glance at Sugarboy with a worried grin on his face. The blue gaze staring at him laying on the bed, he lays his head on the left side to have a better view. :
- " As i can see you got in some trouble. ", he pauses to make a nod. " What happened? "

- [10:39] The gray-haired Chieftain would be propped up against the wall, his legs cross over one another as he meditated amongst his thoughts. He'd open an eye to look at his visitor, a big smile growing as he spies Brotayo at his door.
- Springing to his feet, he'd saunter through the bars to give his brother a hug. "Ah ha ha! Almost thirty years, and things haven't changed too much, have they?" He'd joke, trying to make light of the situation, not just for Potayo's sake, but his own.
- "Got a little.. Irritable, I guess, and went to the Ice caverns to gather lightning crystals.. Ran into Donovan, Freya, and Tizetch.. They fought me, and Donnie gave me a nasty eye on my neck.. But I escaped.." he'd tap the mithril plate the donned the left side of his neck.
- "Salvasfound me in Crafthold.. Said he felt responsible or something and wanted to get me healed.. Said we'd wait for Shizuko at her place.. Then he locked me in and said I was his prisoner.. Tried escaping and ended up here." He'd say with a shrug.

- [10:47] Potayo would make a slight giggle to his affirmation. Remembering his imprisonment in Dawn thirty years ago. :
- " Haha! You are right! ", he pauses to make a slight nod. " Better laugh than cry. Am i right? Haha. "
- He laugh, but was conscious that the situation was not fun at all, but to recomfort him, i guess that seeing it in another way is better. Potayo don't know Salvas very much, but he knows Donovan very well. :
- " You will get out of this soon brother, i promess. ", he affirma as he inhale the smoke from his cigarette before showing it to his brother. " Want some? , he asks with a gentle smile.

- [10:50] Sugarlad asks, "Uncle. I'll try to stay polite, aye?"
- [10:51] Sugarlad asks, "But what the frickin' frick is my father doin' behind these bars?"
- [10:52] Potayo Invidia says, "Haha! Your father got in some trouble. Those vampires don't make his life easier."
- [10:53] Potayo Invidia says, "He will be fine, you don't have to worry about it."
- [10:53] Izzy hugs himself at the mention of vampires.
- (Izzy Penel)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [10:54] His lips purse as he looks at the cigarette, nostalgia hitting him like a tidal wave as the scene from thirty years ago replays when Potayo first got some smokes for him in Baukdengrad.
- He'd happily take the cigarette, taking a deep inhale down to the filter before holding it, and slowly exhaling. Sugarboy was deeply touched not only did his brother come to visit him, but remembered that small kindness all those years ago. It meant just as much to the Chieftain now as it did then.
- "Yeah, I hope to get out before the war ends." Ocean blue eyes would peer past the bars through tinted shades as he heard more people approaching-two kids.
- HEY, HE KNOWS THOSE KIDS.
- "LADDY? WHAT IN HELHEIM ARE YOU DOING HERE?"
- (Sugarboy)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [10:56] Izzy steps to the side some, giving Laddy some space as the young lad, ever worried of proving valuable, reunites with his estranged father.
- But the boy was uncertain himself, biting his lower lip as he watches on with wide, weary eyes, crossing his arms to brace himself.
- (Izzy Penel)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [10:59] He'd look over at his father and bring his fist close to his lips, to clear his throat.
- Did his friend mention that it was cold down here in the dungeon? Well, not for long because Sugarlad is in the mood to break some people's ankles. The blonde-haired lad would take a deep breath before looking back at his father, with an eeries smile adorning his features.
- "WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT YOU, DUMBASS?! I SHOULD BE THE ONE ASKING YOU WHAT THE FRICK YOU'RE DOING HERE!"7
- The Chieftain Ezmara was caught and now behind the bars, Dawn's bars! What is old did to end up here.. such an idiot! But despite shouting at his father, he was relieved. The child feared the worse but his father was still breathing, it could have been worse..

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [11:10] The father's eyes would go wide at the sudden display of aggression. His situation wasn't pretty, but it wasn't a situation he hadn't faced before. His shades would sink down his nose to reveal those Ocean blues that met Potayo's with an old and wily and grin.
- His situation wasn't pretty, but he sure as hell wasn't going to let his kid know that. "Ah this? This is a fun little practice I like to do every once in awhile~ Ain't that right Potayo?" He'd ask raising his chin.
- There was a plate of Mithril on the left of his neck under the collar he wore, imbedded in place and a web like scar can be seen spreading out from beneath it. The chieftain had been battered and bruised from numerous fights, but he'd look back to Laddy a bit more seriously.
- "Kiddo, I'm happy to see you, but you can't be here right now, if the warden gets their hands on you, this goes down the shitter real quick- do you understand that?"
- (Sugarboy)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [11:24] I'm… not a dumbass.
- What is father was thinking? The situation was clear, crystal clear. He's the Chieftain of Ezmara and Dawn's deepest dungeon, the blonde-haired lad was young but he wouldn't swallow that. He could see the bruised skin of his father, he could see it, they dared to strike the man who brought him to life. They dared to harm his role-model and that, Sugarlad would never forget.
- And yet, for a brief moment.. father and son would exchange. Not through woods or gestures but through their gazes. His sapphires locked in his father's oceans, the both of them silent. The ones standing beside Sugarlad could feel the palpable tension building all around him, this eerie presence winning over the child and yet, he would not speak.
- But instead smile…
- "Oh, if it's just a gamefather… I'll head back to Gehenna. I hope I'll see you tonight for dinner, alright?" He would stare at his father with the brightest smile ever and yet, it was filled with sadness. Sugarlad clearly understood the situation and if he could relief some weight off his father's shoulders, if he had to pretend to be this innocent child who doesn't understand anything, if he had to play the idiot, just so his father could feel better. Then he would do it.
- He'd clench his fists and bite his tongue, holding back his tears, Sugarlad wanted to cry but he wouldn't. He wanted to tear through the ones who put his father here but he couldn't. There was nothing he could do here he felt, he felt… so powerless.
- "Papa, I love you. I'll take care of the family until you're back.." He'd turn his back and pull down his hat over his face, in an poort attempt to hide his saddened expression. Sugarlad would silently head towards the exit of the Dungeon.
- It was… it was better like this.

- [11:27] Izzy watches on, ever hesitant. The tension in the air was sharper than glass, ready to fracture into a hundred million shards! The trouble of father and son, held apart by literal steel bars.
- Izzy was crying, but he hadn't noticed it. Every few breaths turns into a gentle sniffle, and as Laddy gives his goodbye, Izzy turns and steps up to the door. He reaches a fist down into a pocket, squeezing around, before pulling out a soft mass of orange and white.
- The young blonde boy squats down and sets the sugar cap down at the base of the bars, dodging his eyes up to meet those of the trapped teacher. Izzy nods once, muttering a soft prayer under his breath - the softest word of 'Azrael' heard, before turning and taking off after Laddy.

- [11:35] Powerless.
- It was exactly how his father felt right now, feeling the palpable sorrow in the air. He wasn't putting on an act for himself, he was facing the grim reality behind that barred door. No, his confidence was for his boy, to know that he'd make it back home to him, his siblings, and mother.
- Before Laddy could get too far away, Sugarboy would reach through the bars the grab the straps on the straw-hat wearing boy's overalls. Pulling him backwards against the bars before his arms were wrapped around him.
- "I'm probably gonna be late for dinner.. For awhile.. Think you can handle cooking dinner?" It was hard having to be this far from his family, had he not trusted Salvas, he would never have been here.
- "Don't worry about me, kiddo, I got some people looking out for me.. And I'm not gonna let them do anything to me that'd keep me away from you guys~" The loving father would reassure as he held his boy the best he could manage.
- "I won't let them change me." A promise he had made, and kept to his mother whispered softly in a still voice.

- [12:29] Jessi Ultovex says, "No need to be crude."
- [12:29] Sugarboy says, "But that's what makes like so sweet~"
- [12:30] Sugarboy asks, "So how's Dawn been treating ya, Jessi?"
- [12:31] Jessi Ultovex says, "Mmm.. I've been in the Legion for over two decades, and am the most senior officer under the Eternal and Adjudicator. So well."

- [12:33] Sugarboy says, "Oh you know, head doctor of the Tecotchitlan Hospital, Chieftain of Ezmara, a beautiful wife and three amazing kids.. So pretty damn good"

- [12:34] Jessi Ultovex asks, "I have to ask? Why do you fight for those who only seek to opress you?"
- [12:35] Jessi Ultovex says, "And by you, I mean Gehenna."

- [12:38] Jessi Ultovex says, "So you'd rather have an Imperial hand up your arse than to live next to undead..? "
- [12:38] Jessi Ultovex says, "Seems like a fair trade."
- [12:39] Sugarboy says, "Reito is kind and doesn't see an issue with us keeping our demons, we can perhaps work out a true alliances, but ultimately we just want to be left alone to our jungles."
- [12:39] Jessi Ultovex asks, "So because you want to be left alone... you attack us?"
- [12:40] Sugarboy says, "Truthfully I wanted neutrality, but Tototl insisted that while the undead march Gehenna would not stand idly by."
- [12:40] Jessi Ultovex asks, "The same one who wouldnt fight a Vampire?"

- [19:45] Jessi Ultovex asks, "Why were you tortured here?"
- [19:46] Sugarboy asks, "Uh, when specifically?"
- [19:46] Jessi Ultovex says, "Those years ago I assume. Before you 'left'."
- [19:47] Jessi Ultovex says, "Unless there was more than one instance."
- [19:47] Sugarboy says, "Ah, I didn't know if you meant the recent one, or the one that lead to me being in Dawn."
- [19:47] Jessi Ultovex says, "Both I suppose."
- [19:48] Sugarboy says, "And I wasn't tortured in Dawn, in fact, but Baukdengrad."
- [19:48] Jessi Ultovex says, "I see."
- [19:48] Sugarboy says, "Captured by Ceridor Draskovic, last thing I remember was him pulling me out of a well."
- [19:49] Jessi Ultovex asks, "Relation of Donovan?"
- [19:49] Sugarboy says, "Then next thing I know, I wake up not knowing my own name, and Lady Nihilexia Wight has said she saved my life."
- [19:49] Sugarboy says, "Got a big ol T shaped scar across my chest to prove it."
- [19:49] Jessi Ultovex says, "I see."
- [19:50] Jessi Ultovex asks, "Why did you leave Dawn..?"
- [19:50] Sugarboy says, "I was thankful and offered to help her where I could, then I became her retainer, then head of resource management for house ruger."
- [19:50] Sugarboy says, "though, after Gideon's humiliation, house Ruger went on the decline."
- [19:50] Sugarboy says, "Everyone died or ran away."
- [19:51] Sugarboy says, "I was all that was left, and I was having.. Memories come together.. But they kept pushing me to a single person."
- [19:51] Sugarboy says, "So I went between Huangzhou and Dawn until I found them."
- [19:51] Jessi Ultovex asks, "Euyitl?"
- [19:51] Sugarboy smiles warmly.
- (Sugarboy)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [19:51] Sugarboy asks, "Yeah, you know her?"
- [19:51] Jessi Ultovex says, "No."
- [19:51] Jessi Ultovex says, "My information gathering turned up the name."
- [19:52] Sugarboy says, "Yep.. I fought Ceridor for her.. Got captured in the process.. Spent seven years apart from her before I could tell her how I felt."
- [19:53] Jessi Ultovex says, "Unfortunate.."
- [19:53] Sugarboy says, "Such is life, but it's tempered our love into something I wouldn't trade for anything in this world."
- [19:53] Jessi Ultovex says, "That is.. good at least."
- [19:54] Sugarboy says, "Anyway, so yeah, to answer your question, I was actually saved by Dawn."
- [19:54] Jessi Ultovex says, "I see.."
- [19:54] Sugarboy says, "But I did have a collar on.. I didn't think i could do magic for awhile."
- [19:55] Jessi Ultovex says, "Hm.."
- [19:57] Jessi Ultovex asks, "Explain to me something if you would?"
- [19:57] Sugarboy says, "I'll do my best~"
- [19:57] Jessi Ultovex asks, "How can you rely on a Spirit?"
- [19:57] Sugarboy asks, "You want my honest answer?"
- [19:58] Jessi Ultovex says, "Yes."
- [19:58] Sugarboy says, "Fuck if I know"
- [19:58] Jessi Ultovex says, "I see.."
- [19:58] Jessi Ultovex says, "I only made that mistake as a child."
- [19:59] Sugarboy says, "Oh? I was just about to ask how a Nagual found herself in Dawn with her sister."
- [19:59] Jessi Ultovex says, "Hm.."
- [20:00] Jessi Ultovex says, "I was here first, then Alayne heard of someone who looked like me and came and found me."
- [20:00] Jessi Ultovex says, "FIrst time we'd seen each other in eleven years."
- [20:00] Sugarboy says, "Awh, that's sweet."
- [20:00] Jessi Ultovex says, "Hm.."
- [20:01] Sugarboy says, "Doesn't explain how you got here though."
- [20:01] Jessi Ultovex says, "We were seperated when my magic developed and I basically blew our house up"
- [20:01] Jessi Ultovex says, "In the swamps."
- [20:01] Jessi Ultovex says, "Killed our parents, and I thought Alayne."
- [20:02] Sugarboy asks, "How old were you when it happened?"
- [20:02] Jessi Ultovex says, "Eleven."
- [20:02] Jessi Ultovex says, "I spent the next eight years or so alone, more a savage than anything. Simply surviving. Scared to interact with other people. "
- [20:02] Sugarboy says, "So you didn't see your sister until you were twenty two.. That's quite a time to spend apart."
- [20:03] Jessi Ultovex says, "Hm.. Yes."
- [20:03] Sugarboy says, "I'm happy to see you got a reign on your power and the will to chat with people~"
- [20:03] Jessi Ultovex says, "Then I stumbled across Dawn."
- [20:03] Jessi Ultovex says, "I made a friend here.. and I never left."
- [20:03] Sugarboy asks, "Ah, that's how it happens, doesn't it?"
- [20:04] Jessi Ultovex says, "I suppose."
- [20:04] Jessi Ultovex says, "The thing is you see.."
- [20:04] Jessi Ultovex says, "Had I not been one of 'Ixchel's blessed' that wouldnt have happened."
- [20:04] Jessi Ultovex says, "Or even if I could have been stopped."
- [20:05] Sugarboy says, "Circumstance of birth, it's not something you can help."
- [20:05] Jessi Ultovex asks, "But it is something Ixchel could have?"
- [20:06] Sugarboy says, "Is it? I suppose that brings into question how much control Ixchel has over the descendants of the ones they blessed."
- [20:07] Sugarboy says, "And I'd reckon by you questioning them- it's not much"
- [20:07] Jessi Ultovex says, "I've done more than question.."
- [20:11] The Nagual rolls back the sleeve over her mythril arm, a glowing word with runes around it reading BETRAYER in glowing letters.
- "Ixchel branded me. They could take time to brand me. Though not to save my family from me. It is not I who betrays, I was betrayed. I marched through a temple and slaughtered nearly everyone within.
- I fought a Wraith and made it flee to recover from its wounds, and took what I sought from the temple.
- There will be a time when Ixchel and I are face to face... They will face me. The one they have wronged so.
- The Twice-Blessed."
- At her final sentence her amber-orange eyes seem to glow, and a second presence can be felt. A Spirit's mana emanating from her.
- (Jessi Ultovex)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [20:22] The gray haired Chieftain would listen with his full attention. His back against the cold stone wall, and his pegleg propped over his good one. The glowing brand would certainly cause the man to raise an eyebrow.
- "To have defeated a wraith is quite the feat, one destroyed all of Gehenna and it's populace, so holy shit, fucking nice." He'd say with genuine awe, even applauding a little bit.
- He wondered if Wraiths varied in power, or if the Nagual before him to get a great Spirit's recognition was truly that strong. His eyes going wide as he felt the other presence within the mana that swelled from her.
- "What is that?" He'd ask with a cant of his head, stepping out of the cot and over to the bars to get a better feel for the power.
- (Sugarboy)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [20:28] The Spirit's mana would come to the forefront, the entirety of her eyes consumed by the amber glow. For the faintest moment the outline of something akin to a tri-horned lion formed around the Nagual, barely fitting in the room before fading away. The air smelled of ozone and copper as this happened, a static charge building in the air simply by the mana brought forth.
- "Some years ago, I took a trip to the Spirit Realm. I impressed this Great Spirit enough to travel with me, in this amulet."
- She gestured to the arcanium pendant, the gemstone glowing the same amber orange, but flickers could be seen within. Like lightning strikes.
- "With the intention if I proved my worth, it would merge with me. Years later. It happened. It is not something I use often. I only scrape the surface when needed. It is all needed for one purpose..."
- (Jessi Ultovex)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [20:37] His sunglasses would sink down his nose as his ocean blue eyes became visible, tracing the outline of the spirit with a look of absolute wonder as he smiled.
- "Ah, they're always so beautiful when ya see'em." He'd remark, he had only seen a handful in his time. Tonantzin bringing one back to Gehenna, and then the handful he saw on an island when helping Tototl find a books author.
- "That's one hell of a friend ya got there.. So you intend to use one spirit to kill another?" He asks with another cock of his head, his lips pursing slightly.
- If Jessi's stories were to be believed, and judging on that presence, they definitely were. Making her quite fit to be the warden of Dawn's prison, not that he had any plans of escaping.
- (Sugarboy)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [20:43] At his last sentence she would smile, fang-like teeth showing.
- "More than this alone... but a major part of it yes. The rest... hm.. more is to come on that. One of the reasons I invaded that temple after all. Had something I needed."
- (Jessi Ultovex)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [20:49] His elbows would rest on the bars, one leg crossed over the other as his forehead rested close to the door. He shared a wide and wily grin with the Nagual, although maybe for different reasons.
- "Okay, cool, so you got your spirit, your strong as hell magics, and some other goodies in your pocket to off Ixchel. You get there and you get your glorious battle and kill'em.. Then what?" He'd ask curiously.
- It seemed she had directed her feelings towards ridding this spirit when the elder man himself would have chalked it up to something out of his control. It was a difference in psychologies that interested him, to find out what the girl who had dedicated her whole life to killing the moon panther would do afterwards.
- (Sugarboy)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [20:55] The Spirit's mana would fade entirely, the orange retreating back to her iris' alone. Her eyes take on a more sorrowful cast. As if she had accepted a grim possibility.
- "The real question.. is what happens to the Nagual? Do we... become human as our ancestors..? Or do I commit genocide to an entire race? If the former, I will be pleased. The 'gift' that cause this will be gone. The latter... well. I won't be alive to worry will I?"
- She had thought of these things before. The possibilities, the various outcomes. So far.. she hadn't been deterred.
- (Jessi Ultovex)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [21:07] The amount of thought she had put into his was apparent, one may have even gone as far as to call it obsessive. Though he was a Chieftain, tasked with nurturing spirits, perhaps was the only reason she brought it up at all.
- He wasn't entirely sure Spirits could truly be killed, but he would keep that hush, preferring instead to humor the idea with the possible scenario. He'd tap his chin and look upwards, clearly contemplating it.
- "Well.. From what I understand from Drakan blessings, it can be diluted. The further you stray from true dragons, the smaller and weaker the children. Meaning that there is perhaps some disconnect from the giver of the blessing, and those who receive it.. Meaning Naguals may just lose their features over time through breading with humans." He'd propose with a shrug, he was an alchemist and a doctor, but spirits and how esoterically they affected their world? He was unsure.
- "Well, I atleast wish you the best on your hunt. It'll be one hell of a story to tell your kids~"
- (Sugarboy)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [21:12] Jessi Ultovex says, "That's one of the possibilities I face.."
- [21:12] Jessi Ultovex says, "One of my daughters is Nagual."
- [21:13] Sugarboy asks, "I'd say that's sweet, but do you resent her recieving the blessing?"
- [21:14] Jessi Ultovex says, "I'd have rather her born a Drakanite like her father, than a Nagual like me."
- [21:14] Jessi Ultovex says, "I have no ill will against my race, just.. for my daughter alone. I'd have rather her been something else."
- [21:15] Sugarboy says, "Ah yes.. My eldest son recieved Quetzalcoatl's blessing from his mother."
- [21:15] Sugarboy says, "I was pretty ecstatic when I first saw his wings."
- [21:15] Jessi Ultovex says, "Schrei was... a mix-breed."
- [21:16] Sugarboy asks, "With?"
- [21:16] Jessi Ultovex says, "Half wind, quarter fire, quarter lightning."
- [21:16] Jessi Ultovex says, "Though it was wind he recieved."
- [21:17] Sugarboy says, "That's quite the mixed bag."
- [21:17] Jessi Ultovex says, "Yet it was Nagual that prevailed."
- [21:17] Sugarboy says, "I remember for a time I sought a Dragon's blessing, so that I could be married with Euyitl, atleast through Moira."
- [21:18] Sugarboy says, "Ah, well I am sure she will be fine.. It's just her children that might be questionable."
- [21:18] Jessi Ultovex asks, "I guess we will see wont we?"
- [21:20] Sugarboy says, "Yepp"
- [21:21] Jessi Ultovex says, "I may return soon. After speaking with Sors."
- [21:21] Sugarboy says, "I'll be here~"
- [22:16] Shizuko Voss asks, "Sugarboy?"
- [22:18] Sugarboy says, "Ah, hey hey Shizuko"
- [22:19] Shizuko Voss asks, "How are you feeling?"
- [22:20] Sugarboy says, "Little bit better, still not all too happy, but eh, you know. Work with what ya got."
- [22:21] Sugarboy pulls out a cigarette from his breastplate, lighting it with a piece of flint.
- (Sugarboy)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [22:21] Shizuko Voss says, "I'm sorry about all this... but I have to be loyal to my new home and my husband."
- [22:21] Shizuko Voss asks, "Are you being well fed?"
- [22:22] Sugarboy says, "I got an egg I hard boiled"
- [22:22] Shizuko Voss says, "Well, I have a sandwich and pie if i'm allowed to give it to you."
- [22:22] Shizuko Voss says, "I'd brew up some tea, but I lack Alessa."
- [22:22] Sugarboy says, "Ah I know your struggle all too- OH SHIT MY GARDEN."
- [22:22] Shizuko Voss says, "I'm sure your family will tend it..."
- [22:22] Jessi Ultovex says, "I can't say I'd enjoy the idea Shizuko. More a precaution than anything."
- [22:23] Shizuko Voss asks, "I'm not allowed to give him food?"
- [22:23] Sugarboy says, "Oh what am I going to do? I'm an old man in a collar"
- [22:23] Jessi Ultovex says, "Hm."
- [22:24] Shizuko Voss says, "The only idea I can think of is lacing a food item with an invisibility potion."
- [22:24] Jessi Ultovex says, "Fine, but he must eat it with me here. Just to be safe."
- [22:24] Sugarboy says, "But you went through all the trouble to get me here, it'd look real bad on ya."
- [22:25] Sugarboy says, "Preciate it warden"
- [22:25] Shizuko Voss says, "That's okay."
- [22:25] Shizuko Voss asks, "Did you want anything else in addition to a sandwich and pie?"
- [22:25] Shizuko Voss says, "And tahnk you as well."
- [22:25] Sugarboy says, "That should be plenty, thank you kindly Shizuko."
- [22:26] Shizuko Voss asks, "How do I do this? Do I pass it through the bars?"
- [22:28] {Item} You picked up Sandwich. Dropped by Shizuko Voss. .
- [22:28] {Item} You picked up Pumpkin Pie. Dropped by Shizuko Voss. .
- [22:28] Sugarboy accepts the food, taking his time to savor and enjoy Shizuko's delicious cooking.
- (Sugarboy)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [22:31] While in the room, the Nagual's hand would rise each having a thin bolt of lightning erupt, carving multiple thin layers of runes onto the wall. It was good to information gather on someone.
- (Jessi Ultovex)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [22:34] Shizuko Voss asks, "What do those runes do?"
- [22:34] Jessi Ultovex says, "Just a contingency is all."
- [22:35] Shizuko Voss says, "Uh, okay. I captured him with Salvas, so I doubt we'd try to release him. But I understand taking precautions."
- [22:36] Jessi Ultovex says, "I didn't mean you specifically Shizuko, I apologize if it was taken that way."
- [22:36] Shizuko Voss says, "Oh okay. No offense taken."
- [22:36] Sugarboy says, "Nah I'm pretty chill after I throw my fit."
- [22:36] Jessi Ultovex says, "I am just a bit paranoid when it comes to things."
- [22:36] Jessi Ultovex says, "Especially my duties."
- [22:36] Sugarboy says, "Model prisoner right here"
- [22:36] Shizuko Voss says, "I'm the same way. I overthink things and worry too much."
- [22:36] Shizuko Voss says, "Salvas points it out. I try to work on it."
- [22:37] Jessi Ultovex says, "Mhm.."
- [22:37] Shizuko Voss says, "Have people been visiting you Sugarboy? Since last night."
- [22:38] Sugarboy says, "I've had a handful of guests, yes."
- [22:38] Sugarboy says, "Got to see my son, and boy does he have his father's Kohones, haha"
- [22:38] Jessi Ultovex says, "Who has been here besides me? And Shizuko obviously."
- [22:38] Shizuko Voss says, "Well, at least you have company. And your son visited? That's nice."
- [22:39] Shizuko Voss says, "Well, I think Chaaca, Donovan, Chroma, Salvas, maybe Syracuse and one or two others were here last night when he was jailed."
- [22:40] Shizuko Voss says, "Is there anything you need to pass the time? Depending on Warden approval of course."
- [22:40] Sugarboy says, "Yeah, that's been about it."
- [22:40] Sugarboy says, "Ah I got that piece of paper to stare at and enough smokes to hold me."
- [22:41] Shizuko Voss says, "Well, I'll try to visit from time to time to check on you."
- [22:41] Shizuko Voss asks, "Any requests..?"
- [22:43] Sugarboy says, "If it's not too much to ask-"
- [22:43] Sugarboy looks between the warden and the kitsune leaning forward with a grin.
- (Sugarboy)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [22:44] Sugarboy says, "One time one a date day, Euyitl and I went farming for crystals on the Volcano, didn't run into any trouble then."
- [22:44] Sugarboy says, "But we stopped by my old place, The Sugar Suite, since we lived there together for a few years."
- [22:44] Sugarboy says, "Guy who owns it now doesn't lock his door."
- [22:44] Sugarboy says, "Anyway"
- [22:45] Sugarboy says, "He kept almost everything in there the same"
- [22:45] Sugarboy says, "Including the water bed"
- [22:45] Sugarboy asks, "... Think you could grab that for me?"
- [22:45] Shizuko Voss says, "Uhm..."
- [22:45] Shizuko Voss says, "I hope it's clean."
- [22:45] Shizuko Voss asks, "Warden?"
- [22:45] Jessi Ultovex says, "."
- [22:45] Jessi Ultovex says, "He's not getting a waterbed."
- [22:45] Shizuko Voss says, "Well, I tried."
- [22:46] Shizuko Voss asks, "Any... other requests?"
- [22:46] Shizuko Voss says, "I can try to deliver a message for example. Within reason, due to there may be a target on my back now."
- [22:47] Sugarboy says, "Hmm.."
- [22:47] Sugarboy asks, "Eh I think I'm good for now, I got time to think on it, right Jessi?"
- [22:48] Jessi Ultovex says, "Plenty for now."
- [22:48] Shizuko Voss says, "Alright."
- [22:48] Shizuko Voss asks, "Last thing, any specific food requests for next time?"
- [22:49] Shizuko Voss says, "I think I even have a rainbow fish. Just one."
- [22:49] Sugarboy says, "Oh it's been so long since I've had a ranbow roll."
- [22:50] Shizuko Voss asks, "Okay, anything to drink?"
- [22:50] Sugarboy says, "But anything you bring is fine, dear"
- [22:50] Sugarboy says, "I shouldn't touch vodka"
- [22:50] Sugarboy says, "Unless the warden allows dancing"
- [22:50] Jessi Ultovex says, "If you do it alone."
- [22:51] Shizuko Voss says, "I think so long as it's within your cell you should be fine yeah."
- [22:51] Jessi Ultovex says, "I don't care."
- [22:51] Jessi Ultovex says, "If it causes a problem, I'll care."
- [22:51] Shizuko Voss asks, "So vodka and rainbow rolls?"
- [22:51] Sugarboy says, "Awhh but dancing alone is no fun~"
- [22:51] Jessi Ultovex says, "Unfortunate."
- [22:51] Sugarboy says, "Like I said, anything you bring sweetheart will be fine."
- [22:51] Shizuko Voss says, "Alright..."
- [22:51] Shizuko Voss says, "Take care now."
- [22:51] Sugarboy says, "To you as well, spirits protect~"
- [22:51] Shizuko Voss says, "Spirits would probaby kill me more than protect me."
- [22:52] Shizuko Voss says, "As Salvas has warned."
- [22:52] Sugarboy shrugs.
- (Sugarboy)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [22:52] Shizuko Voss says, "It's why I stopped visiting Gehenna to be honest."
- [22:52] Sugarboy asks, "Didn't do me much good either, eh?"
- [22:52] Jessi Ultovex says, "He and I had a good talk about Spirits earlier."
- [22:53] Sugarboy says, "Aye we did"
- [22:53] Shizuko Voss says, "I wish we were both in Crafthold instead of in this war. Sipping tea at the table outside the jail. Watching the waves."
- [22:54] Shizuko Voss says, "But we both have roles to fill now."
- [22:55] Shizuko Voss says, "Ready when you are Warden..."
- [22:55] Jessi Ultovex says, "Mhm."
- [22:55] Shizuko Voss says, "Farewell."
- [22:55] Shizuko Voss says, "Ohhh."
- [22:55] Sugarboy grins towards Shizuko with an odd warmness to it. "I don't think either of us are doing a good job though, but maybe it's for the best that way."
- (Sugarboy)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [22:55] Shizuko Voss says, "A ritual. Okay."
- [22:56] Sugarboy says, "Take care, Shizuko"
- [12:13] Taiga rolls a bottle of wine through the bars! Before waiting for any kind of thanks or reaction otherwise, he turns around and flies off! What a silly little lad. But hey, at least Sugarboy could get wasted in jail if he wanted - as long as the guards don't notice or whatever.
- (Taiga Voss)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [12:13] {Item} You picked up Grape Wine. Dropped by Taiga Voss. .
- [14:31] Alura would walk up to the bars, peeking in and seeing the man unconscious on the bed, a soft frown on her lips before pulling out a small bundle of soothing reed from her garden, resting it on the inside of the cell door. She didn't want to wake him up if he was getting decent rest.
- (Alura Kana)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [14:33] Sugarboy would stir for a moment hearing someone come downstairs, his eyes hidden behind shades as he pretends to be asleep, only to see a more than welcome face dropping off a gift! He'd swing his feet out of the bed to grab the soothing reed.
- (Sugarboy)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [14:33] {Item} You picked up Soothing Reed. Dropped by Alura Kana. .
- [14:34] Sugarboy says, "I like how it keeps me in guild chat even after I logged out"
- [18:02]
- {LOAD GAME}
- [18:24] Aspen Invidia says, "Mmh, it's strange to see your face around here. I've heard of your capture, but not how it happened. Hello, Sugarboy. It's been a long while."
- [18:25] Sugarboy stands up from the wall, offering a warm smile as he saunters to the barred door.
- (Sugarboy)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [18:26] Aspen Invidia says, "Perhaps you might not remember me. I'm Aspen. Formerly Yano, now known as Invidia."
- [18:28] Sugarlad asks, "Pa?"
- [18:38] Aspen Invidia asks, "This is your father?"
- [18:39] Aspen Invidia asks, "Or Grandfather?"
- [18:40] Sugarboy says, "Ah, I'm sorry it's been a good number of years"
- [18:40] Sugarboy says, "And hey there Laddy~"
- [18:41] Sugarboy says, "He's my boy, alright."
- [18:43] Aspen Invidia says, "Ah-"
- [18:43] Aspen glances to Laddy with a pair of ebony infused sclera and a mahogany set, curious as to why the child was down here by himself, even if she was present.

- [18:44] Aspen Invidia asks, "Who sent you down here, Laddy?"
- [19:24] Sugarlad asks, "Pa?"
- [19:24] Sugarboy asks, "Hey Laddy! What are you doing here?"
- [19:25] Sugarlad says, "I'm allowed to c'mere and visit ya from time to time."
- [19:25] Sugarboy asks, "Oh? Who gave you that permission?"
- [19:25] Sugarlad says, "Salvas."
- [19:25] Sugarlad says, "I told him I'd kill his wife if somethin' happened to ya."
- [19:25] Sugarlad asks, "He was kinda surprised, y'know?"
- [19:26] Sugarboy says, "Oh Laddy, you don't need to be that rough with 'em, and you should still avoid sors or jessi."
- [19:26] Sugarlad says, "I'm not afraid pa."
- [19:27] Sugarboy says, "You should be, sors is a dude you don't want to fuck with."
- [19:30] Sugarlad says, "They shouldn't fuck me with ma."
- [19:30] Sugarlad asks, "But that's not the moment.. how ya feel?"
- [19:30] Sugarboy says, "Still a little miffed, but I'm dealing."
- [19:31] Sugarlad says, "Amalka asked me to try to convince ya to calm down."
- [19:31] Sugarlad says, "And try NOT to escape."
- [19:33] Sugarboy exclaims, "But I was about to mount the largest flirt campaign to free myself from here!"
- [19:34] Sugarlad asks, "W-what?"
- [19:35] Sugarboy exclaims, "I got a pocket full of Sugar I'm not afraid to use!"
- [19:36] Sugarlad says, "Pa, Gehenna is about to march for ya."
- [19:36] Sugarlad says, "So.. calm down."
- [19:37] Sugarboy says, "... Alright fine"
- [19:37] Sugarlad says, "We don't want anythin' to happen to ya."
- [19:38] Sugarboy says, "I'll keep it cool"
- [19:38] Sugarlad says, "Salvas promised me that he'll keep ya safe."
- [19:38] Sugarlad says, "And that you'll be back after the war."
- [19:38] Sugarlad says, "I made him swear that he won't touch the family."
- [19:39] Sugarboy says, "Thank you laddy for stepping up while I'm in here"
- [19:39] Sugarboy reaches through the bars to hug his son as closely as he could.
- (Sugarboy)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [19:39] Sugarboy says, "I'm so proud of you~"
- [19:42] Sugarlad hugs back his father with a smile adorning his features.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [19:42] Sugarlad says, "...y-yeah, yeah."
- [19:44] Sugarboy asks, "What else have I missed on the outside?"
- [19:45] Sugarlad says, "Not much honestly, I'm hanging out with my friend Izzy."
- [19:46] Sugarlad says, "Had two pancakes from Aia."
- [19:46] Sugarlad exclaims, "...and that's it!"
- [19:46] Sugarboy says, "How's things going with Aia/~"
- [19:47] Sugarlad scratches the back of his head.
- (Sugarlad)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [19:47] Sugarlad scratches the back of his head.
- (Sugarlad)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [19:47] Sugarlad says, "Man, she's a real pain sometimes."
- [19:48] Sugarlad says, "Wanted to spar me so much, she took my by the collar and dragged me to the dojo."
- [19:48] Sugarboy says, "Oh my~ Sounds like she's got a lot of energy"
- [19:48] Sugarlad says, "Aye."
- [19:48] Sugarlad asks, "She's kind of powerful, y'know?"
- [19:48] Sugarlad says, "Could probably take Gale and Dew with ease."
- [19:48] Sugarboy says, "She kick your butt Oh damn"
- [19:48] Sugarlad says, "O-oh, no she didn't."
- [19:49] Sugarlad says, "Heavily, uh.. dominated her."
- [19:49] Sugarboy says, "Haha, that's my boy~"
- [19:49] Sugarlad exclaims, "But I know she's tougher than my siblings!"
- [19:52] Sugarboy says, "She seemed fun from the one time I saw her~"
- [19:52] Sugarlad says, "Man."
- [19:53] Sugarlad leans closer to whisper, he gestures his own chest area.
- (Sugarlad)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [19:53] Sugarlad leans closer to whisper, he gestures his own chest area.

- [19:53] Sugarlad exclaims, "Lately, her watermalons have gotten big!"
- [19:54] Sugarboy exclaims, "LADDY!"
- [19:54] Sugarboy says, "... Heh heh heh"
- [19:54] Sugarlad exclaims, "It's only an observation!"
- [19:55] Sugarboy asks, "You think she's Sugarmomma material?"
- [19:56] Sugarlad says, "Aha-haha.. I don't know."
- [19:57] Sugarlad says, "She's an exorcist."
- [19:57] Sugarlad says, "She's scared of Demons, hate them."
- [19:57] Sugarlad says, "And I'm an occultist, y'know? Unstable. Not trustworthy."
- [19:58] Sugarlad says, "And I have demon friends.. we live in different worlds."
- [19:58] Sugarboy asks, "Oh? And who're they?"
- [19:59] Sugarlad says, "Nyx, he's a real sweetheart."
- [19:59] Sugarlad says, "And Ashen, the Demon who swallowed Ashley."
- [20:18] Sugarboy asks, "Ah hey Artaghh, you met my boy yet?"
- [20:18] Artaghh exclaims, "Aye!"
- [20:18] Artaghh says, "He's a real lad."
- [20:18] Sugarboy exclaims, "Damn right!"
- [20:20] Sugarlad says, "Oh, hey there."
- [20:21] Allowing a moment for the parties to greet, the little Fairy came fluttering into the room.
- "Hello!" She spoke rather loudly, immediately dashing on over and coming to a halt just between the Lad and the bars.
- "Am Nyphadora, and you are Sugarboy!" A bright smile was swift to curve her lips, "Sors has called for a favour with me, so I will be taking you to a more secure location than here."
- (Nyphadora)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [20:22] Artaghh exclaims, "Oh shit Sugarboy, you're goin'ta love this!"
- [20:22] Sugarboy asks, "Am I artaghh?"
- [20:22] Sugarboy says, "I'm taking your word on this"
- [20:22] Artaghh exclaims, "Imagine bein' in'a place where ye' are high, bu' ye' haven' even smoked yet!"
- [20:23] Sugarlad says, "Wait a moment, fae."
- [20:23] Nyphadora asks, "Hm?"
- [20:23] Sugarlad asks, "Where are ya takin' my dad?"
- [20:23] Nyphadora glances over to Sugarlad.
- (Nyphadora)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [20:23] Nyphadora says, "Oh, you."
- [20:23] Sugarboy says, "And I remember you Nyphadora, hope ya been well~"
- [20:23] Kenshin asks, "Why is Suga in jail captain?"
- [20:23] Nyphadora says, "I am taking him to my world, little one."
- [20:23] Sugarlad asks, "B-but, how am I going to visit him?"
- [20:23] Nyphadora says, "Sors will be permitted to go there as well."
- [20:23] Artaghh says, "Cause Sugar's on a minutely involuntary vacation in Dawn Ken."
- [20:23] Artaghh says, "Til after the war is all."
- [20:23] Nyphadora asks, "And of course, your father will be returned once the war has been dealt with, I believe?"
- [20:23] Artaghh exclaims, "Bu' now he gets to see some great shit, so it all works ou'!"
- [20:23] Nyphadora exclaims, "Yes!"
- [20:24] Nyphadora exclaims, "It is a dreamlike world!"
- [20:24] Kenshin says, "I see."
- [20:24] Kenshin says, "huhuhuhu."
- [20:24] Kenshin asks, "Can I help?"
- [20:24] Sugarlad says, "W-with all due respect, the war could end tomorrow."
- [20:24] Nyphadora exclaims, "My Glade is an island floating amidst a sea of stars!"
- [20:24] Sugarlad says, "Or in many years."
- [20:24] Nyphadora smiles, "Should've thought about that before, huh?"
- (Nyphadora)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [20:24] Artaghh says, "I'll be back in a bi' Ken, then I can prepare ye' a fresh lesson. "
- [20:24] Artaghh says, "Firs' though, go' business here."
- [20:25] Sugarboy says, "Ahh, as nice as it sounds, I'm getting a little cozy in here"
- [20:25] Kenshin says, "I see."
- [20:25] Sugarboy says, "Unless I get my collar removed"
- [20:25] Sugarlad squints.
- (Sugarlad)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [20:25] Sugarlad squints.
- (Sugarlad)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [20:25] Sugarlad says, "I already don't like ya."
- [20:25] Nyphadora says, "Once we are in my world, your collar can be taken off."
- [20:25] Nyphadora says, "I don't perceive you as a threat."
- [20:25] Sugarboy says, "I'm really not"
- [20:26] Nyphadora exclaims, "I hope not!"
- [20:27] Sugarboy asks, ".. I reckon I don't get a choice?"
- [20:28] Artaghh says, "This is arguably fer ye' own safety too Sugar. Out'a sight, out'a mind, no one thinkin' "Hey let's cut off his head grrr.""
- [20:28] Artaghh says, "I like yer head intact."
- [20:28] Artaghh says, "Yer me boy."
- [20:29] Sugarboy says, "I meeeaaann or we can have a fun two man tango on the battlefield, then share a brew in crafthold"
- [20:29] Sugarboy asks, "Doesn't that sound nice?"
- [20:29] Artaghh says, "Tha' does....bu' sadly losin' this war means I'd be dead."
- [20:29] "But alas, it is the Adjudicator's orders. So yes, no choice."
- She inched even closer, taking a stand upon the bars themselves, "I hope that is no issue, of course? I have already spoken to Amalka, and extended the offer for her to visit you there. If you care."
- A tilt of her head, as she awaited his answer.
- (Nyphadora)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [20:29] "But alas, it is the Adjudicator's orders. So yes, no choice."
- She inched even closer, taking a stand upon the bars themselves, "I hope that is no issue, of course? I have already spoken to Amalka, and extended the offer for her to visit you there. If you care."
- A tilt of her head, as she awaited his answer.
- (Nyphadora)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [20:32] The blonde-haired scratches the base of his neck. The little one had just gotten the permission to visit his father in the dungeon from time to time and now, he was being taken away in another world he had no access to.
- His sapphires glance between the cursed fae and his bruised father, a saddened expression adorning his features. Once again, his father was being taken awa and there was nothing he could do about it.
- So powerless…
- (Sugarlad)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [20:33] Ser Artaghh would cross his bandaged, burn scarred arms over the black plate of his cuirass as he nodded solemnly, puffing away lightly at his corn cob pipe within the confines of Dawn's, dreary dungeons. In truth, the worldscape was a far more worthy cell for Sugarboy in the peasant's eyes, it was a wondrous realm of beauty and peace that was such a far, far step away from this dark hole in the ground.
- He'd just have to make sure Sugarboy received a large enough supply of soothereed that the visit became a real vacation, not just a white collar imprisonment.
- (Artaghh)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [20:34] Sugarboy 's lips would press into a thin line, he didn't like the move, but he had no say in the matter. He would simply shrug. "Do watcha gotta do."
- (Sugarboy)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [20:40] Attention turns to the young Lad, the Fae ever so empathic as fate had forced her to be.
- "Would you like to come along for a visit? I can show you the wonderous world your father is going to, trust me- It is not a prison like this, but simply a world he cannot leave without my aid. Much more freedom!"
- A hand extended towards the man within the cell as she spoke, palm open; and within an instant, reality itself would implode behind him- Even within the dungeons, the Fairy could call tear apart the fabric of reality. A rift had been torn open, clearly awaiting the man in question.
- "Or? In either case, Artaghh and I will be going there too for now, so it is of no issue." And as she spoke there, the other hand was risen and another rift was torn open, this one behind Artaghh against the world, the destination no doubt the same- For both had an odd disturbing feeling of death magic surrounding them.
- "And I promise my Gladeis absolutely stunning. It is literally an island floating amidst an ocean of stars! It is-- Amazing!"
- (Nyphadora)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [20:43] Ser Artaghh would smile wide, thoroughly excited to return to the realm whether there was a lesson going on or not. The knight had seen few sights like it in his time, and while the war was waiting just upon the horizon, it was hard not to feel at peace and separated from it all when he saw the sea of stars surrounding the glade. He was blessed to have had the opportunity before he died, of that there was no doubt.
- The legion commander would follow Nyphadora close at hand, the presence of rifts and space time continuum fuckery almost reflexive for him at this point after twenty three years in Dawn.
- (Artaghh)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [20:47] A floating island amidst an ocean of stars?
- He didn't like it, he didn't like it at all! He didn't want his father to leave but? it would a lie if he said he was not at least interested to visit the incredible world Nyphadora was describing to him. His gaze would drift to the side as a cheery taint would slowly appear upon his cheeks, his hand moving from the base to the side of his neck, embarassed…
- Sugarlad was a child afterall and… extremely curious. He'd mutter between his lips. "A-alright, I want to have a look and make sure my father will be fine there.."
- (Sugarlad)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [20:51] Nyphadora says, "--"
- [20:51] Nyphadora suddenly seems a bit disturbed.
- (Nyphadora)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [20:51] Sugarboy was lowkey actually quite interesting in seeing what this island would look like, though with the fairy's somewhat demonic presence and the feeling of raw dread emanating behind them.
- He had no say in his moving, but Sugarlad did. He wasn't sure if he should tag along, but perhaps the peace of mind would be good for him.
- He'd step towards the bars, "Alright fam, guess we're going on a star ride~"
- (Sugarboy)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [20:53] A literal 'paradise' was revealed.
- The Fairy's world was one much in complete contrast to anything she stood for, for it was a Glade- A beautiful surplus of trees circling around the Eternal Tree, an once source for a fountain of Youth, now but a tree with a surplus of mana that granted it a primeval connection which can be felt upon touch.
- Odd fruits adorned the Eternal Tree, all of which were excess mana produced through time- The small critters and such lying around the tree seems to have eaten some of them, and most of them are sound asleep next to it.
- And as promised, the island was indeed one floating amidst an ocean of stars, albeit not quite something you could surf upon!
- "Welcome! To my world!"
- (Nyphadora)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [20:58] Ser Artaghh would once more return to the glade with a wide, missing toothed grin upon his face, staring out into the distant see of glimmering stars as he allowed himself a sigh of relief, a rare priviledge with the stress of the coming siege heavy upon his mind. No longer keeply starstruck from having seen it the first time, the knight was far more capable now of simply taking in the serenity of the glade in full, inhaling and exhaling deeply as he almost instinctively crossed his legs into a meditative posture.
- Riftmancy was a helluva thing.
- (Artaghh)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [20:58] Wha…
- The blonde-haired lad couldn't believe it, the fae was telling the Truth, this was real island floating admist an ocean of stars! His overwhelming curiousity would now take over as Sugarlad would immediatly detach himself from the group to run straightforward towards the edge of the island and lay down on his stomach to peekn wondering what would happen to him if he were to fall off!
- "M-man, what would happen if I fell off the edge?"
- (Sugarlad)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [20:58] Nyphadora says, "Try jumping off."
- [20:59] Sugarlad says, "I'm.. not sure man."
- [21:03] Nyphadora says, "Oh, I promise you, nothing bad happens."
- [21:03] Nyphadora exclaims, "Artaghh will even jump with you!"
- [21:03] Nyphadora asks, "Right?"
- [21:03] Artaghh exclaims, "Sure!"
- [21:03] Artaghh exclaims, "Sounds fun!"
- [21:04] Ser Artaghh would nod with a smile to Nyphadora before hovering idly towards the edge with young Sugarlad, giving the youth a thumbs up as he puffed away at his corncob pipe and gazed deeply into the distant stars. He'd done more foolish things for less reason, and was entirely willing to add jumping off the edge of the glade to the list. It sounded like a plan.
- "I'ma knight, so my word is sure as steel. If ye' jump, so shall I."
- (Artaghh)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [21:07] He'd step through the portal to the other realm, and it was truly breath taking sight. It would've brought a smile to his face had he not been torn from his family.
- It would've been nice to have a picnic here.
- A better view, but he didn't care for how isolated it was. He sort of enjoyed the randomness of guests that visited. Though there would be much less of that here, and the guests would probably be less than favorable.
- A small sigh as he stepped to the side, he wasn't sure what jumping would do, but hey, if Laddy and Artaghh were down, he had nothing to lose.
- "Cowabunga fam~" He'd say with his thumb and pinky sticking out and waving around.
- (Sugarboy)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [21:15] "Alrighty then."
- The blonde-haired lad would take off his trident and straw-hat and place them down before moving back to the edge of the cliff. At this exact moment, he was hearing his mother scolding him with the famous "would you jump off a bridge if your friends did?"
- "Totally, mama.~"
- Taking a deep breath, he'd give one final glance to his father and Artaghh before literally kick the ground beneath his feet to plunge forward in the ocean of stars! However, he would not close his eyes… not even once!
- He would not miss a single second of this!
- (Sugarlad)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [21:15] Ser Artaghh would snap his fingers as his black plated sabatons descended slowly to the ground, a light puff of minty smoke emanating from his person as he stared over the edge of the glade with a sense of whimsy. The void of starry light and emptiness that expanded so distantly beyond the gaugeless horizon of blackness and glimmering twinkles would perhaps be a bit intimidating for the unprepared. It was practically the equivalent of jumping out into space and assuming that you weren’t going to just disappear and be gone forever.
- But the knight trusted Nyphadora, she was great! So naturally whatever was going to happen was also going to be great, and the bald swordsmen had no complaint with that. Flashing finger guns to the fae behind him, he’d take one last minty puff from his corn cob pipe before leaping off the side with peasant, reckless abandon. He probably could have just glided off the side with his gravity magic to manifest a similar effect, but the old fashioned way was always more fun!
- The motto of Dawn, no fear.
- "Las’ one down’s a swuisarme kisser! Fishy lips!"
- (Artaghh)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [21:16] Sugarboy does a backflip off the island.
- (Sugarboy)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [21:21] And as they found themselves over the edge of their world, it was as though their magic was no more- A sensation of falling, and fall they did. For a few seconds, it would feel as though they actually would die.
- As though there was nothing more they could do but fall to oblivion!
- And then suddenly, all three of the sat on a bench just in front of the Fairy. She? Hovering before them, watching.
- "Worldscape. Death is impossible here, and so is any harm. Quite a wonderful place, no?" Attention turning to Sugarboy, "I hope you can come to terms with it."
- (Nyphadora)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [21:27] Ser Artaghh would tumble through the abyss for a time, whistling a somber, peasant tune as he fell infinitely into the dark, starry void with acceptance. If he was going to die a haphazard, foolish death that involved literally leaping off the side of the worldscape, well, at least he was doing it with his boy Sugarboy. And Sugarlad was here too! What a gang.
- And just like that, the knight would blink as he sat upon a cozy bench, tilting his head sideways in a bit of confusion as he glanced about before realizing, no, it seemed that the legion commander yet lived. Glancing off towards the starry void he'd just leapt into with perhaps the slightest bit less comfort, the wide, missing toothed grin would return to Ser Artaghh's face as he scratched the back of his bald head with a shutting of his remaining eye.
- "How come no one can ge' harmed or die here Nyph? Is it cause e'erythin' feels so sunshiney an' happy, even death ain' tryin'ta mess aroun' wit' ye'?"
- (Artaghh)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [21:27] "Um…"
- It didn't seem to be that good of an idea on second thought! For a moment, the blonde-haired lad actually feared for his life when they seemed to endlessly fall into oblivion. Instant regret time!
- Sugarlad actually started to do is prayer but, before he could finish-- he suddenly found himself on a bench with his father and friend, right before the fae! He'd start to wipe off the sweat out of his forehead with the use of his sleev…
- "C-close call."
- (Sugarlad)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [21:32] He would plummet and spiral into a freefall, closing his eyes and letting go. Atleast until he felt a bench beneath them, looking towards the fairy.
- Yeah, that sounds about like his luck. "Not like I really have a choice." Pretty much an ongoing theme, no point in stressing over things out of his control.
- "Well do I still age or what's the deal with that? You guys are taken probably the last year I got in me to be slick on the battle field." He'd groan half jokingly. They were still his captors, and he was feeling meh about all of this.
- (Sugarboy)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [21:33] Nyphadora says, "You will still age."
- [21:34] Artaghh says, "As ye' can see, there are worse places'ta be imprisoned. "
- [21:34] Artaghh says, "Bu'..."
- [21:35] Sugarboy says, "Ahh I think I'd like cell, no offence, familiarity really"
- [21:35] Artaghh says, "Well, this is easier than killin' ye' wit'ou' purpose Sugar. Yer a good lad! Jus'....on the wrong side."
- [21:35] Artaghh exclaims, "Hmm, if ye' go up in one'a those trees in the leaves, it'd probably feel celly!"
- [21:36] Sugarlad says, "Man.. all this Dawn and Gehenna stuff, exhaustin'."
- [21:36] Sugarlad says, "Just want a happy life with my family."
- [21:36] Nyphadora says, "Mm...."
- [21:36] Sugarboy says, "Same here, Laddy, I'm sorry this turned out the way it did."
- [21:37] Nyphadora says, "Sors wishes for no more issues to arrise whilst war is raging."
- [21:37] Nyphadora says, "That is the only reason we had to bring you here."
- [21:37] Sugarlad says, "'Least you didn't kill my papa."
- [21:37] Artaghh exclaims, "Aye, think'a it like a vacation!"
- [21:37] Artaghh says, "Ye'll see yer family again."
- [21:38] Sugarboy says, "Alright, you guys can go now."
- [21:38] Sugarlad says, "Pa."
- [21:38] Artaghh says, "Sure, sure. I'll have Chaaca ge' ye' some high quality vodka an' reed joints, maybe some crabcakes."
- [21:38] Sugarlad asks, "Maybe you should take this opportunity to practice, aye?"
- [21:38] Sugarboy says, "I'm feeling a stupid episode coming on."
- [21:38] Sugarboy says, "Ah yeah, that sounds good, Laddy."
- [21:39] Sugarlad asks, "Ya wouldn't want your boy to surpass ya already, mhm-mhm?"
- [21:39] Sugarlad says, "Ehe.."
- [21:39] Sugarboy says, "Heh heh, not just yet."
- [21:39] Sugarboy says, "I still got some tricks to show ya~"
- [21:39] Nyphadora says, "M."
- [21:40] Nyphadora says, "Mm."
- [21:40] Artaghh says, "Keep it real Sugarboy."
- [21:40] {Item} You picked up Pancakes. Dropped by Sugarlad. .
- [21:40] Sugarboy says, "I will."
- [21:40] Nyphadora says, "Ah, and Sors will be coming to visit you later I assume."
- [21:41] Sugarboy says, "I guess I'll look forward to it."
- [21:41] Nyphadora exclaims, "Mm. We will be taking our leave then!"
- [21:41] Artaghh exclaims, "Aye, away we goooo!"
- [21:41] Sugarlad says, "See ya soon, pa."
- [21:41] Sugarboy says, "Take care Laddy, stay sweet~"
- [11:11] He'd awake alone, not something he was unused to at this point in his capture. Though he woke in grass, with a breeze against his cheek and the stars to greet him as he opens his eyes.
- The old man would sit up, wrapping his arms around one knee as his back pops several times. Looking out over the vast starry expanse, he couldn't deny it's beauty, but that only magnified the loneliness his felt. Little twinkling lights, so far out of reach, just like his friends, family, hell even his enemies were out of reach.
- He briefly wondered if any of the stars he saw were patrons to someone, of if these were even the same stars that shared the night sky of Agartha. If death and harm did not exist here, then surely it couldn't be any space shared with Agartha.
- How does magic even begin to create a place like this? He'd stand up, wandering around as he inspected the small forest. He shortly debated on harvesting the wood, but with no axe and a collar on, he didn't feel like beating up his hands.. Yet.
- He missed his kids, missing those critical few years before they really left on their own, and the Chieftain had to go and get himself captured. Anger steeped into annoyance and frustration, soon sorrow and betrayal would settle in as he reminisced over Shizuko and Salvas's betrayal of his trust with their shift of allegiance.
- He fought Salvas in his youth, but with Shizuko falling in love with him, Sugarboy felt there was credence to his attempt at redemption. In truth, however, Sugarboy was trusting Shizuko when he followed Salvas. To see her stand by him as they tried to detain him in their home, he could feel his heart sinking all over again.
- He couldn't blame her fully, however, she had to stand by the one she loved, just as Sugarboy would have done if Euyitl was involved. He'd take a deep inhale as his wife's name crossed his thoughts.
- She was frequently onhis mind, but he tried his best from thinking about her during his stay to avoid the heart ache of being away from her. He missed her floral fragrance, her warm and comforting presence. She was his peace, and without her he was restless.
- It was evident by his risk of turning himself into a blood bomb to avoid capture, in the heat of the moment, death really seemed more preferable than being torn from the one he loves more than anything else in this world.
- He'd pace around, at least he could be proud of Laddy. Even at the age of twelve, he matured very quickly, and he was already handling intersettlement disputes and walking around with relative ease. He was going to go far, and that brought a comfort to the father.

- [11:13] Sugarboy has grown bored, and frustrated enough to karate chop trees into oblivion.

- [15:33] After staring into the sparkling expanse lost in thought for awhile, Sugarboy would go over to prop himself up against the largest tree there. It was hard to tell if it was the oldest, or just a product of design by it's creator.
- He couldn't even work on his magic, meditate and attune with his mana because of the collar that blocked his circuits from flowly smoothing throughout his body.
- Nope, all he had was a bottle of wine and a reed to sooth him. He didn't have his magics to help him hind the reed or light it, so he had to make use of more primitive tools. A pair of coarse rocks, a small stick, and some rolling paper he kept in his med kit to separate bandages... And not as an emergency stash.
- He'd roll the grinded herb into the paper making a tight cigarette, wrapped with the finesse of someone who's been doing this for almost forty years has. Finding some flint, he'd eventually get it lit and toke out as he waited for anything to happen.

- [21:06] Nyphadora exclaims, "Hello!"
- [21:06] Nyphadora says, "Dear man."
- [21:06] Nyphadora says, "Huang has lost."
- [21:06] Nyphadora says, "Sera has died."
- [21:06] Nyphadora says, "Zeriel has died."
- [21:06] Nyphadora exclaims, "So many things occurred! Wow!"
- [21:10] Sugarboy would be sitting propped up against the central tree, smoking his Macgyvered joint as he sat idly about. Nyphadora would return with quite grim news, his lips tugging downwards into a frown.
- "That's some heavy news to drop, fam." He'd say, exhaling a cloud of smoke. "Anything else you wanna share, or am I getting moved out from my vacation?"
- (Sugarboy)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [21:12] Hands would clap together, a smile swift to curve her lips- "Nothing in particular, except perhaps that today is the day you are finally released."
- As she spoke, a portal was opened behind her- Reality torn asunder, freedom awaiting on the other side.
- "Salvas and Sugarlad pestered me to go grab you immediately, mm. And here I was looking forward to talking to you… Oh well! Off we go!" And so she ventured into the portal, expecting the man to follow.

- [21:12] Sugarboy says, "Perhaps another time, in Crafthold."
- [21:12] Nyphadora says, "Ah, Crafthold..."
- [21:12] Sugarboy stands and readily follows behind, eager to go.

- [21:12] Nyphadora says, "They are no longer neutral."
- [21:12] Nyphadora says, "They are against Dawn..."
- [21:12] Nyphadora asks, "Are you from Crafthold?"
- [21:12] Sugarboy says, "That so? Damn I'm gone for a couple months and Agartha falls to shit, haha~"
- [21:13] Sugarboy says, "No, I'm not"
- [21:13] Nyphadora says, "I'll take your word on it."
- [21:13] Nyphadora exclaims, "You don't seem like a liar!"
- [21:13] Reality itself is torn asunder, and with it, two individuals arrive- Nyphadora and Sugarboy!
- "Hello!"
- (Nyphadora)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [21:14] Artaghh says, "Hey Sugar."
- [21:14] Sugarlad fucking ZOOMS to his father and JUMPS in his arms!
- (Sugarlad)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [21:15] Kit Voss says, "Heh."
- [21:15] Sugarboy steps out into the darkness, holy shit it was really dark, and not just because he was wearing shades. He'd feel someone tackle him, and snap his night light on. Seeing it was Laddy he would laugh, pulling him into a hug.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [21:16] Sugarlad exclaims, "You idiot!"
- [21:16] Sugarboy says, "Sup Artaghh, hope you understand if we run home now."
- [21:16] Kit Voss says, "Glad to see you back Sugarboy."
- [21:16] Artaghh says, "Yeah no worries."
- [21:16] Sugarlad says, "You ain't leavin' Gehenna for awhile pa, I'm tellin' ya."
- [21:16] Salvas Voss says, "mm.. Welcome back."
- [21:16] Sugarboy says, "Oh I know, Laddy, I know."
- [21:16] Salvas Voss says, "You can't die baldie."
- [21:16] Sugarlad says, "I'm lockin' ya inside the house."
- [21:16] Salvas Voss says, "I won't let you."
- [21:17] Salvas Voss says, "Heh.."
- [21:17] Sugarboy exclaims, "Not the house, not again!"
- [21:17] Kit Voss says, "Least you can drink more ale now."
- [21:17] Sugarboy says, "I need room to roam and socialize"
- [21:18] Sugarboy whispers: Get me out of here before Cho sees me
- [21:18] Sugarlad exclaims, "Ok!"
- [21:18] Salvas Voss exclaims, "Sugar boy if you try to kill your self again I will capture you again!"
- [21:18] Salvas Voss says, "Just a fair warning.."
- [21:18] Kit Voss says, "...."
- [21:18] Sugarboy says, "Don't capture me and I won't have to kill myself~"
- [21:18] Nyphadora asks, "I wonder if I can remember how to rift to Gehenna?"
- [21:18] Salvas Voss says, "I gues.."
- [21:18] Sugarlad exclaims, "Don't worry Nyphadora, we'll walk back there. Aye!"
- [21:18] Sugarlad exclaims, "Thanks for givin' back my father without beatin' him too much!"
- [21:18] Nyphadora says, "I-"
- [21:18] Nyphadora exclaims, "I didn't beat him!"
- [21:19] Sugarlad exclaims, "Others did!"
- [21:19] Sugarlad says, "Follow me pa."
