Felix nodded his head at Zuri's question. He walked over to a brown box on the wall. The brown metal box was thin and its face was about 7 inches square. It had one button towards the bottom of the face, and one large black circle in the middle of the face. Felix pressed the button at the bottom and immediately a crackle of noise house-wide indicated that the PA system was in use.

[h3]"Paragon's End! We are commencing the mission ASAP, meet in the living room and I will usher you all through a rift." [/h3] Felix's voice rang throughout the manor.

Felix turned towards Zuri and Travis, "Let us be off then." Felix said, then he turned towards the exit and began his trip towards the living room.

Raiya blushed for a moment at Nemo's compliment. And it took a moment for her to rationalize to herself exactly what the nature of the compliments were. She didn't look into it too hard, after a moment she figured that it must be some sort of trick. 

Raiya turned her head and scoffed, [color=ec008c]"Black hair is overly common from where I come from. So common in fact that our language had to come up with other words to describe people because of how homogeneous everyone looks. Complimenting the color of my hair is like complimenting a rock for being solid and blunt."[/color] Raiya explained a bit irritated, [color=ec008c]"One of those description words is, 'アホ毛 (ahoge)' which literally means 'stupid hair' and it is used to describe the 'antenna' you so thoughtlessly pointed out. Do you know how many times I have tried to get rid of the damned thing? It just keeps growing back. And no amount of gel will keep it down either." [/color] She said exasperatedly, [color=ec008c]"I even resorted to extreme measures, trying spells to nuke the bastard, but no matter what I tried it kept coming back, like a giant middle finger from God Himself."[/color] Her arms were v-d outwards as if pleading, begging for, at the very least empathy. [color=ec008c]"I have a feeling that even if I grow old and my hair turns grey and begins to shorten and fall out, that wretched thing will still be there, mocking me. I bet even when I am dead and in the grave, for hundreds of years anyone who stumbles on my skeleton will find that stupid lock of hair sticking up out of my skull like a monolith to commemorate my misfortune."[/color] Raiya had her head tilted down in a pose of defeat. 

Then she leaned back in her chair as Nemo began to take out weapon after weapon. Many not just rare, but outright unique pieces that could be worth a small fortune to the right buyer. Raiya cocked in eyebrow in an expression of being impressed. [color=ec008c]"This is quite the collection you have here. You could arm a small militia with these. Or sell them to fund a full army... You even have some balisongs, I've been a fan of those myself but never really considered carrying one."[/color] She smirked, [color=ec008c]"I keep many of my own rare pieces behind glass back at my penthouse. Although, I didn't really show you my custom kusari-tanto. The chain is enchant-"[/color] She began to explain, about ready to call it forth before she heard Felix's call. [color=ec008c]"Well, I guess we must be off. Maybe you'll get to see my kusari-tanto in action here very soon."[/color] She suggested as she stood up and down the rest of her umeshu. She placed the glass down firmly, making a small knock sound come from the table. [color=ec008c]"Let's go then."[/color] She said as she began to walk towards the living room which was only about 20 feet away from where they were in the dining room. 

She plopped herself down on one of the sofas, waiting for the rest of the team to arrive.
