[color=FireBrick]"Well, Magnolia, guess I'll see you in two months. Guys, stay safe and get strong. We're gonna win those Games."[/color] With one last farewell to the city, Damian took off after Penny, the Striker Blade propelling itself forward using Damian's magic energy. Fortunately, the spell was far from draining and he could sustain it until they reached Mount Hakobe. As he flew, the gift he bought Penny was heavy in it's pouch, reminding him that it was there. [color=FireBrick][i]When the time is right...[/i][/color] [center][h2]James Hunt|Phoenix Wing Guild Hall[/h2][/center] [center][@t2wave][/center] James was amazed. There in front of him stood a Familiar. He had gotten it right after all, and now he had to complete the contract. Drawing his sword, he very carefully pricked his first finger on his left hand and offered it to the spirit. [color=Navy]"Aye, that I did. And if you accept my offer, we seal the contract with a drop of my blood, so that I can't break it without your allowance first."[/color] The process was simple enough, if a bit odd for paladins. But then, blood had always been a powerful binding magic and it would help make sure James didn't hurt his new companion whether it be an accident or on purpose.

[color=Turquoise]"Those, dear Jackie, are the words of a man who fears to grow attached to anything or anyone in this world. Emotions, while they can lead us astray, are an essential part of any bond we make with others. It's difficult to explain, but if you ever have questions, don't hesitate to come and ask me."[/color] And then Jack saw the curiosity in her eyes when he said he could give her some help with her magic, which drew a chuckle from the man. [color=Turquoise]"The stronger you envision an object up here,"[/color] he lightly taps her forehead, [color=Turquoise]"the easier it is to form in your hands. Like the way Joslyn does with her water make."[/color] He points to the female Water Make mage, who is busy helping to celebrate by creating different objects and things to provide entertainment for everyone, her water make creations appearing and flowing effortlessly as she speaks the spells. [color=Turquoise]"She's also got an active imagination, but that's not quite what you need to work on for now."[/color]
