Aria's response made him chuckle. "Mhm, you'd get to save gald too. No need for a funeral or a coffin." He gave the woman two thumbs up and a cheeky grin. However, before he could say anything else she disappeared, leaving him with Selan and the crazy dancers.

The dancers hurried down the street and they could do nothing but follow or get trampled on. Perhaps he was right about the sacrifice to the gods thing? He chuckled nervously as he stuck close to Selan. He didn't want to get separated with these weirdos...he really, really didn't. Then someone began yelling something about banishing spirits and he froze in place, staring at the songstress with wide eyes and a look of utter confusion. No way was he going to keep dancing...he was getting off this crazy parade to who knows where.

Then again, if this was some sort of ritual there'd be magic and monsters. Lucien's expression shifted from worried into ecstatic and soon he was grinning from ear to ear like an excited kid who was high on way too much sugar. Then more screaming reached his ears and his silly thoughts flew out the window and genuine concern for the well being of his friends made him skid to a stop. "Maybe we should go somewhere else, yeah? These people are off their rocker." He made a cuckoo sort of gesture only to be pushed forward by a tall man who was built like a rock. Lucien gulped before flashing another one of his dopey looking grins.

"The main event is just 'bout to begin, little dude. It's time for the banishing of demons. It'll be totally righteous, man." He gave the summoner a blinding smile and ushered him along, but before they could get very far, the man froze. The crowd parted, making way for the demons and the men with paddles.

"Crap..." The summoner stared at his friends with wide eyes as they ran for dear life. The trio ran and Aria swooped back in suggesting they head to the casino. Not long after the parade ended and they rushed into the casino looking worse for wear. Lucien pulled confetti out of his hair then shuddered. "Anyplace away from dancing sounds grand." He nodded at both women before peering out the door. Phew, it was over...

He cupped both hands around his mouth. "Guys! Guys, over here!" The summoner waved his arms in the air then called out to the trio.

Estelle looked like she knew what she was doing so Xan followed after her without question. The girl however broke into a run and soon Xan was doing her best to keep up and not bump into people. She dodged people left and right and at one point almost lost track of the girl, but in the end spotted her due to her fiery hair color. It took a while to catch up but she managed to and eventually was just a few steps behind the energetic swordswoman.

The metallurgist looked around extra carefully for anyone who might resemble the man, but her luck was pretty bad...she would make a terrible gambler. The girl followed Estelle all the way the poker section before a three men came into view. "Is that him?" She huffed before pointing in the men's direction. She hoped it was and if it really was Marcus, then how were they going to alert the others. This wasn't the most thought out plan, was it? "Excuse me, but how are we going to call the others--" she paused, Estelle was going to start yelling again wasn't she and that wouldn't be good. If someone high and mighty got annoyed they'd be kicked out. "I'll go find them, and maybe we should regroup here so we know where to meet up?"
