"Oh no.. oh, dear. Fabio, right? What did Armillion do? Is he rotting in a cell for treason, then?"
[i]Camella didn't know.[/i]
English
-
"Could? It will. I know some sneaky people."
-
"Your confidence is truly inspiring." [i]Hyaenis stated, bowing, his robe shuffling as he did so.[/i] "However, do have care with whomever you send. I have lost many spies of mine, to that cruel land."
-
"That... I won't say. I haven't figured out who I'm sending yet."
-
"You need to decide quickly, whether you like it or not. This war is just beginning, if it escalates.."
-
"Right... a lot of people would die, Amethyst, send a message to Mia," David asked.
-
"Mia.. mm, very well. I don't exactly know a Mia, but nonetheless, she should certainly hurry. She.. does know about the dimensional travel between the world of Tatakai and the Trayven realm, yes?"
-
"Yes, she does," David replied, "She's my aunt."
-
"Good. Great. Get to it, then."
-
Edited by Splashback77: 2/18/2018 7:17:36 PM"Alright, I will," David replied. "Mia's been notified. She will do it," Amethyst reported.
-
"Good. I shall leave you, for a time, then. May you.. both, of you.. sleep well." [i]The little man would bow forwards, towards David, before then turning away and leaving him alone. Mia would likely arrive soon enough, though not exactly at night. It would be best to sleep for a bit, and then find her in the morning.[/i] [spoiler]Best if you intro Mia into Trayve, I suppose.[/spoiler]
-
[b]The Next Morning[/b] [i]Gates of Trayve[/i] The green-cloaked Huntress approached Trayve and its walls. She stepped a few feet outside the gate, spinning her Last Word out and back into its holster. "So this is the place that Oliver's from. Sheesh. So golden, too Roman," Mia muttered. "It's also the place that will plunge into Civil War if they find out," Lush noted, in his iconic Locus voice "But technically aren't they already in a Civil War?" "I assume you could say that."
-
[i]The gates of Trayve were accompanied by the usual: endless caravans for trading, guardsmen, and nomadic travelers heading into the city. Though a certain individual upon horseback, hooded and cloaked, would approach Mia then. He removed the hood, revealing a young man with a shaven bald head and light brown eyes.[/i] "Mia. Hey, your half-nephew who whatever's back in the palace. Name's Edwin, I'll be leading you up." [i]He then whistled, as another horse came up, for Mia.[/i]
-
She climbed onto the horse, "If you get shot with an arrow or something, that's on you. I probably should have made my own bow, quiver, and arrows before I came."
-
"I can hook you up with some archer equipment, get you all that you need. Daggers, hidden blades, that sort of shenanigans." [i]Edwin added, as the two rode into the city. The blue skies blazed across the heavens, as packs of birds flew throughout the air.[/i] "They're heading west. Winter's coming, eventually. Ugh." [i]Edwin murmured.[/i] "Your, ah.. nephew, is waiting in the keep, with his new girlfriend or whatever. Decently sure he's trying to hook up with a Lionknight, or his Ghost is trying to get them together."
-
"Amethyst.... I told her to stop teasing him so much," the Huntress sighed, "Also, I have [i]plenty[/i] of knives, wouldn't mind adding a few more to my collection." [spoiler]*[b]This will make fine addition to my collection[/b] intensifies.*[/spoiler]
-
"Knife girl, huh? All goes well, I'll see if I can get the royal smith to forge a steel blade with a golden hilt, wrapped with a smoothened leather handle. Think of it as a Trayven antique." [i]Edwin added, as the two traversed through the center of the city.[/i]
-
"Hmm... might reinforce that with hadium," she muttered. "Yes, I have a lot. I think I have, what, 40 throwing knives alone."
-
"Jeez, and I thought that all my weapons and disguises were enough. Though hadium. Hadium, hadium.. oh, yeah, I remember from the report. I'll leave the infusion up to you. Anyway.. Lady Camella!" [i]Edwin yelled, as the knightess, her arm still casted, yet she was in her knightly garb.[/i] "So good to see you, dear. How's David?" "He should be here.. soon." [i]Camella murmured, though she bowed her head towards Mia.[/i] "My lady." "Camella Castellan," [i]Edwin introduced her.[/i] "Lionknight of oh-so glorious King of Lions, Armillion Trayven."
-
"Mia Grey," the Huntress nodded, "Pleasure to meet you, Camella." Then, David had followed, in his usual armor, trimmed in white and gold, "Mia," he called. "David," she nodded to her nephew. She dismounted the horse. The Titan looked he didn't rest as much as he wished. Likely due to nightmares, or simply worry. "You seem.... exhausted, David. I hate to be the one that bothers you about this, but, are you getting enough sleep?" "No..." David answered, groggily.
-
"He shall be fine, I'll tend to him. He should have some time to rest, after all." [i]Camella added, nodding in a reassuring manner.[/i] "Yep." [i]Edwin clapped his hands together.[/i] "Anyway guys.. we should really get moving. David, tell her the plan, boss told you first."
-
David explained Mia his plan, and she nodded. "Yeah, but where is Zyria," Mia asked. "We'll give you a map," David told his aunt.

Edited by Weeaboo Of War: 2/26/2018 9:13:56 PM"West of here, really. You and I are hopping on a boat to scour out the only lead we have, and David, Camella, and Boss'll search for the dudes who captured Julian firsthand. So.. yeah."
-
"This is gonna be interesting," Mia noted. "Hopefully, we will be able to find him, and who did it," David noted, "That's the goal."
-
"Hey, you guys are pretty smart." [i]Edwin complimented the two, while Camella blushed.[/i] "You're the best spy in the kingdom.." "The best spy? Best spies aren't even known, sweetheart."
-
"That is very true... the best spies aren't even known as spies," Mia nodded. "From now, we will part ways," David announced, "We need to find Julian."
