- [09:34] Reno lead Fleur with him out to his favorite spot of all of Osrona. It was grand. It was massive and a fine piece of work. But most importantly, it was his place of peace, and his one goal for the life he had. "There it is! That's the place" He points to the marina of Osrona.
- Upon arrival, if any NPC's were at work. Reno would smile at the many people there before him. After all, that's where his passion lied. Where his will to fight came from. "Fleur! Do you want to know something? Why this place is my favorite spot of all in Osrona?"
- He smiled a bit, showing his bright teeth with eyes set on the sea. With that, he slapped his right hand onto the book carried at his side. "It's because, we humans have a natural urge to travel! Without it, we wouldn't have grown into the great people we are today."
- "Legends, Kings, Queens and those seen and glorified as God's... Those guys, they were once commoners and now, they stand here, in the history books. That is why, one day, I want to board this ship and sail away with you, to discover more wisdom... Because I know that you'll end up, as a hero upon these pages." He opens the book to a blank page. Her spot, saved for when she blossoms into a Paladin.

- [09:40] As Reno led on towards the docks of Osrona she realized a boat in the distance and smiled. It was a beautiful sight honestly. It had a sense of freedom to it that a lot of Osrona lacked in comparison.
- "There is what..?"
- Once he pointed it out she smiled once more.
- "Why is it your favorite place Reno?" She asked.
- "Natural urge to travel.. Hmm.. I do like moving around and going to distant places when I'm able in all honesty. You really do know a lot about history. Huh Reno?"
- As he spoke on about things past she grew in amazement and curiosity of the things to come and then with his dream of travelling the seas Fleur had an idea.
- "Yeah, we can have a family trip one of these days and see where we end up hopefully! It could be fun I'm sure everyone would love it."
- She inquired.
- (Fleur Sanctum)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [09:46] He was glad to see that she was enjoying herself. And Reno wanted just that. To share this joy. "Welp...Tally-Ho!" Reno shouts as he jumps onto the vast and empty ship. The commoners at this point were used to this kid just hopping aboard. He meant no harm anyways.
- "That sounds like a great idea! Just think of it. Setting sail with all of us, and maybe even stumbling onto an island yet to be explored. Just like those in the past, the great exploration that lead to the Spires of Argatha, and before that, the Valmasian expedition." Page after page, he spent much time reading within the library.
- "Well, what are you doing Fleur? Get up here!" He shouts, standing over the edge with his foot propped against the wooden surface. He knew she could jump. Hell, he figured she could fly at this point.
- (Reno Sanctum)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [09:50] Smiled as she shook her head at Reno's actions. He was a fun person to be around truly.
- "Mmm.. this ship does have a nice feel to it honestly.. I can't wait to see what the future holds for us."
- As she made her way up on the ship. Fleur took a brief look around the main deck.
- "Seems to be in nice shape too.., thats good!" Fleur stated tapping her chin.
- (Fleur Sanctum)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- [09:55] The young teen got onto his knee once Fleur got aboard the ship. "Yeah, if you have a good hand for woodwork and crafting. I'd say she's the sturdiest of them all. Buttt… That's not my words, it's from a worker, he told me how much work was put into a single ship."
- That's when he went for a stroll, going towards the main wheel. "And anyone knows what this is. As long as a ship has strong wood, a great sail and a reliable tool to navigate, then anyone can travel the seas."
- He went back to think about what Fleur had said. It took him a moment, but he stopped where he was, and gazed out to the open sea. A ocean with a light that shined from the moon. A Moonlight Passage.
- "Aye, I'm always wondering myself."

- [09:57] Reno Sanctum says, "I want our family. For everyone in it, to reach their own horizon."
- [09:57] Fleur Sanctum says, "That's truly what our family will do Reno, I'm sure of it."
- [09:57] Fleur Sanctum says, "Let's go look for Aria."
- [09:57] Reno Sanctum says, "Yeah."
- Fleur Sanctum says, "...."
- [11:19] Reno was deep into his large book. Reading through the many Era's of Esshar, and the world as a whole. It was his only hobby when he was not fighting. Giving the reason he might end up becoming some form of scholar or scribe.
- "The Clear period, Mythical Era … Long ago, when the world was new. The Archmagi Mihail Petrakis manages to stare into the time vortex, granting unparalleled control over the timestream. The Archmagi Amalia Eliade is able to nightmares into reality, giving rise to the Demon race."
- He took a moment to breathe and lick his finger ever so slightly to turn the page." Driven directly from the fear of men. With her control over negative energy and a demonic army backing her, Amalia turns her attention to Zechoris, and the first recorded battle in history begins, the War of Nightmares. This bloody battle is believed to have lasted a long fifty years, creating many thousands of demons throughout the course of it. "
- "The year when time was not upon the conscious of man. A century unaccounted for," Reno moves onto the next chapter. "The First Age and... The Divine War..." He would read in silence.
- (Reno Sanctum)
- [15:37] Again with his philosopher during his research. His training on the subjects of time and trying to advance forward. It's been some time since he has focused on the growth of this ability. But that, such a break was needed for his mind to grow stronger and jump back into action. For Reno, this was a stepping stone of sorts but at the same time, his greatest challenge as it was something he strived to achieve for some time now. Today, would be the start of his next scene of training, focused on the ability of time known as the aura of Chronos.
- "Never to be used for showing off, only if necessary, never for sport only for critical task, but always accessible through pure passion. Never for greed or pride, only to help yourself and those around you in more ways than one. To defend, never to attack out of anger, to always move fluently with the natural flow of the world. Whether it be to strike or to defend, your movements should only be natural, never forced.
- With a serene state of mind, allowing your own cosmic spirit to move in sync with the body, relying on one’s true instincts in order to defend one self and others. This method of movement could be used with many other forms of activity such as dancing, running, hunting, martial arts. Though with the arts of Chronos, the acting advanced aura of time. One could assume many things, some of which is that the aura could function pure off of mental energy or mana as some would say.
- It’s never been easy to describe such things, opening and closing my hands after practice or when meditating, a strange feeling occurs. I suppose you can say it’s like a surge of electricity flowing through your hands and fingertips. It seems to be especially active when preparing to defend oneself or connect with nature.
- Like a form of instinct, it just seems to come along without even realizing it. It isn’t harmful to the body but it feels rather fun to toy around with, something to train my mind with when meditating. There is no better time to open your mind, only though meditation or focus can an individual free themselves from mental restraints.
- When acting on ones instincts alone, it may feel or appear as if that person is dancing or moving without any restraints. Most times, when moving with such a natural rhythm, the cost of energy is minimized. In theory, that person won’t tire out until they begin to think or their own. Breathing differently and even trying to calculate each movement on their by themselves is the key flaw.
- But that is just with the movements of the human body, the other senses and connection to nature play great roles as well. Our sense of touch, hearing, taste, smell and so on, all play critical roles in our ability to survive and adapt. Learning from and utilizing certain properties of the earth, letting our surroundings teach us about the world we live in.
- Like understanding the simple flow of wind, some elements can be used to our advantage, such as shooting an arrow through the air. Allowing its strong breeze to manipulate the course of the arrow ever so slightly. Or even when jogging, using the natural balance of gravity to form a steady posture, and of course breathing in a way that is natural to us humans when running long distances, right? "
- This was not a meditation method but rather him attempting the method of his by running. He ran with a certain calculation in mind. That of the golden ratio a method passed down through his family of humans when he was with the commoners. People who use this method often only apply it to sports such as using arrows, but Reno wants to try something else. He wants to use his mind to apply this method into time. A philosophy probably turned into a theory.
- "Even within the shadows, utilizing the speed of time seems difficult...This will be tough."
- (Reno Sanctum)
- [15:51] He was focused on the calculations. Never questioning if he should continue this course of training. Because of this, Reno took many steps back, looking into history. He had to study the course of time as he theorizes the potential of it all. What did it mean and how it would help him. The events of Eternia as a whole was a goldmine for any scholar to seek, and the very first road they must venture upon in order to succeed.
- Right now. Reno had his mind, on that of the great expedition and more. The times he spent with Fleur, cherished within his will to continue these studies of time and Chronos. Though for the most part, his determination stems from his passion to be closer to humanity than any other magi out there. And he seemed to be doing a good job at that, now, all he needed to accomplish was some clear access to time and the gift of seeing into the void century, a true vision of what happened all those years ago.
- "When I take a glance at those around me, if I were to simple focus my eyes upon the individual before me, I would see a very thin outline around their body. Like a heatwave, or rather a small candle like flame around the body with a thin line leading up to the sky. In one way or another, we’re connection to much more than what we’re led to believe.
- There are times where we humans may see or hear things we cannot explain, like tiny specs or light that is far too lively. Or the glimpse of an old soul that once lived. Events that we may have never taken part of or even thought about.
- I believe that there will be times where our dreams and memories will not be our own. In fact we will experience the events of the past through a deep slumber and through the eyes of another. Perhaps we actually inherit the memories of our ancestors or are gifted with the opportunity to take a glimpse into the lives of another.
- Something as simple as touching a tree or walking barefoot on the earth makes one feel more energized. Who knows, maybe if we try, we can actually figure something out? Nature is all around us, but it’s up to us to make use of its offerings.
- Even when out late at night, people feel more energized and free to do additional activities. But that’s just a small theory of mine, something I experience myself. However… I am just your typical night person, who loves his night shifts.
- Perhaps we are made to connect with the world around us, not just through technology or searching for the healthiest meal. To actually grow with our senses and feel the world around us, not just see the image of a well selected tree.
- We sometimes forget that we humans grew from the very basics of nature. Nothing in this world was man made, we’re simply borrowing the best and worst of the earth. But will we ever discover what truths nature keeps hidden from a majority of us?"
- The teen had much on his mind. Though his training with the magic of time, was not always physical unless he needed to conduct a series of test. No, they were mainly mental as he needed much strategy to use Time Magic effectively. And right now, he was using his mind in order to gain a higher access to said magic and eventually, grab ahold of the Chronos Aura, to learn more about humanity and teach that hidden human wisdom to many others like him.
