[h2]Jack, Castle Tepes[/h2]

The samurai called Jack had become somewhat of a mercenary to the UMMA, working alongside them, but never directly joining. In the few months he has spent in the Multiverse, he has accumulated a bit of a reputation. This explains why he was in the Council Tower at Yggdrasil when Queen Tepes asked for guards to protect a relic from the Shadow Eternity's attacks. Jack was informed of this opportunity by a contact he had established on Yggdrasil, that informed him on chances to assist the UMMA. The man also gave Jack a way to reach Castle Tepes outside the Queen's formed portals. He had given Jack a device capable of Multiversal travel on its own, and told him what to do in order to reach the Queen's world. He hit the buttons, and felt himself being carefully ripped from Yggdrasil, and into a new plane...

He landed a short distance from both the Queen and the Castle, but they were well within walking speed. He took a look at his surroundings, and was quite stunned. This world looked like it belonged more on the side of Demons than with the UMMA, but if the council was willing to work to protect such a place, it must be very important indeed. Jack approached the group near the gates to the castle, walking slowly and with his hands away from his sword, so as to avoid appearing threatening. He cleared his throat once he was within verbal range of the group, then bowed as a greeting before saying "Pardon my interruption, but I was told by an ally of mine that the UMMA was sending their agents here to defend a relic of great importance. If the Queen Tepes would allow, I would like to offer my services as an independent blade seeking to further his reputation of assisting the UMMA in their duties." He again bowed before holding his hands clasped in front of him, letting them rest on his waist sash.
