There was a sad feeling about the room. The elderly woman turned and smiled at Sthine, putting her hand on hers. "My daughter... it's been too long."
"You haven't been eating again Mother."
"I know... I just feel like... it's time."
Sthine stopped talking for a moment. "Time? But I--"
"Let me finish," her mother said, and Sthine didn't even bother to talk back.
"My daughter... I've been in this world for too long. My body can't take all the pain anymore. But remember my child... my spirit will linger on in this world, especially in you... as you, my daughter, still continue to love me, even though I am not here to protect you from the ugliness that lingers outside these walls. I love you my daughter... and I'm glad you made my last wish to come true... for me to see you... one last time..."
"Mother... as long as I have these two arms... I'll protect everyone and give them the chance you never had. I promise you that."
"Thank you my dear... I will truly miss you."
And with that, her mother died, right there as she held her. She placed her back and place her mother's hands in the correct position, symbolizing death has claimed yet another. Tears ran down her face as she placed her head on her mother's hands. No mere words could describe the pain she had after she just witnessed the only person she truly ever cared about disappear right in front of her eyes.
(Loooong post Oo;; Longest one I've made... ever ^^;))

Zalse is trying to hold back his tears. "Sthine, if you want I'll help give your mother a proper burial. We'll try to find a place worthy enough, in this god forsaken town."

"Then come on, let us go look for a sutible spot."
Both Zalse and Sthine search for a respectable place for a burial. "We have been together for long, and yet I feel like I know you for years."

"I think all of us would have gotten lost in the shadows if it weren't for these spirits. Light is still with us. Why don't we go and find Reaga. Last I saw he just randomly killed a slave owner, and ran off some where."

"I hate to say it but I think we're lost. I know how to get back to the ship, but I fear we lost Inferno/Reaga for now. I have a question. If you have the spirit of lightning, chances would make you from Rioa. But your from Kruz, how did that happen?"

"I never knew my mother at all. She ran after having me. My father said she left because of the impending doom coming to Duran. Once I heard that I quickly felt guilt, as if I caused it my self. As for my spirit Gale, I think my grandfather pulled a few strings. I think Reaga went this way as I recall."
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Zilis: I'm growing impatient, when are they coming.
Man: The first one should be here soon. Ah! He's here.
Another man dress in black emerged for the jungle.
Man2: Orzhov I've come as you requested.
Orzhov: Skarr, did you hear any news of the others coming.
Skarr: None from the usual.
Orzhov: That's okay, proceed up the stairs and take your place.
Skarr: As you wish.
Skarr ran up the stairs and took of his coat. He was dress in a dark blood red cloak. With a pattern of Phoenix feathers on the back.
Orzhov: See, the Death Bringer of Fire came. Don't worry the others will show up.

Arlia looked up at the man. "Is it any business of yours who I am.....Hmmm...Fine then, I see." She gave him a sarcastic smile, and continued "Apparently I should be polite to you, since you clearly have a spirit inside you, although I still see exactly why I should..OK, oK, shut up and let me think clearly for a second. Anyway, yes, I'm Arlia, and my spirit, as you so correctly noticed lives here, is Cholon. Now, who're you, and why're you talking to me?"

Inferno decided to calm down.
"I'm Inferno, Spirit of Fire. My host is Reaga Ichizume. I am here in Kruz with three other Spirits and their hosts. We have the Spirits of Light, Thunder, Darkness, and Fire so far. And we need to save Ather. Will you join us?"

"Dude, that's seriously heavy. Save from what exactly? And why should I come and...OK, Ok, shut up again, CHolon. It seems like I have no choice. If I don't help, my spirit have vowed to turn me insane. You can explain everything while we go to meet the others, 'k?"

(I'm wind. Falls down and break my face.)
"Well looks like Reaga got here first." Zalse walks over to Arlia. "I don't know what specially what we are running from. But I know first hand of what they can do. This way please so we may get to the boat, night fall is coming soon. From what I've experienced these beasts are called "Shades". They don't look like everyday creature. Some how they can move in and out of shadows and attack in great numbers. Even though five may be out in the light, ten more are waiting to ambush. Apparently, they are an ancient foe, but smarter, faster, deadlier. I was attacked by six of them. Then thats where I meet Reaga and Wolfin."

"I see. And Wolfin would be who? Or rather, who resides in him on the etheral plane?" She replied, following him to the boat.

"That's probably one way of describing Wolfin. Please let us enter and enjoy the night." On the deck of the boat Zalse sits their quietly after eating a meal.
"What is the matter? You don't seem like yourself now."
"I thinking right now, on what I should do. Some how my heart is telling me that danger is coming, but I don't know when it is coming."
"That is something I can't help you out with. Is Zalse a family name?""
"Yes it is, and it is given to a male in the second generation of childern."
"You have a heritage. A long line of a name to be proud of. I have one more question. The name's of these nations. They don't ring a bell can you give me a history check."
"Right now the nations are kind of gearing up for war. 10 years ago Duran was started. But that is recent history what you want is the history. I guess we will start with the various events that have happened in the world. About fifty years ago a group name Chriso rose in Solia but was defeated. Now people say that rements of the group are still around plotting for revenge. Shortly after that Zhin started up. A hundred years ago the Magi war began and subdued very quickly. The war was started by a group named The Red Palm. The main base of operations was a forest in Solia. That is also where they died. The blood of the mages filled the roots and the forest it self became evil. They dubbed it with the name Mirage Forest. One of the most earlyest events that I can remember is the Defining War. The war that basically established the nations of today. Any further back is unknown. The reason is that the texts are written in another language. A language that none can understand and there are no books telling us how to translate."

Arlia stood in the shadows, listening to Zalse, while chewing on a paice of bread. She grinned, and walked away. "You know what, Cholon? I definatly feel the joke is at my expense right now." What joke? "Heh. You. The spirits. Something's happening. And I'm just a pawn....But not for long, y'hear....." You're mad..

"You know you don't have to hide in the shadows."
"But I'm not."
"Wasn't even referring to you. Every thing in this world has a place. From the tiniest drop of water to our spirits. And if we are, then we are their vessels. I come to an conclusion that they work in a symbiotic relationship with our bodies. Not harming, but enhancing so we don't think of them as threats. Only thing I know is that war is approaching and from where I don't know." -----------------------------------------------------------------------
On a boat in the ocean, Zot's flag waves.
"Capitan we are almost there."
"Good then prepare the men." ------------------------------------------------------------------------
"When are the others coming Orzhov."
"Calm yourself brother. Ah! More arrive."
Two hooded figures emerge from the brush.
"Father, it is so good to see you." Both greeted Orzhov with excitement.
"As am I, Ern and Lia. Please go take your places so we may begin."
The two girls run up and take off their cloaks. They are dressed in deep blue robes.
"Those two are the Death Bringers of Water. Bringer of Lust will soon be here shortly."
"Good it's nice to see someone from the old days."
