	Tinon clenched his teeth, visibly parading the muscles in his delicate jawline. Luke bounced his head continuously, "Yea," He whispered, "Yea! That's what we're gunna do!" Tinon's eyebrows twitched for a moment before he closed his eyes and offered Alvios a single nod of agreement. Luke brushed Laura off and made his way towards the Room's exit. "The hell with ditching our home! That aint gunna be an option anytime soon! The fact that you two are even considering that is a fuckin' blemish on our paradise! Laura," Luke paused and grabbed his sister's arm, forcibly yanking her towards him, "Yer gunna come with me. We'll go by every last one of the people here and sweep their brains for information usin' your brain powers. Might as well rule out some options, yea?" Laura pulled her arm away from her brother and scowled. But a few moments later, she crossed her arms and nodded, staring at her husband's feet anxiously.

"...Very well, Luke. If you would command it, let it be so. But you and Alvios will be retroactively crushing any chances for our paradise to plant itself elsewhere and grow anew. This is a rash-"

"Shut the hell up, Tinon. I don't want to hear it. Laura, c'mon!" Luke said, scooping at the air with his arm and pointing towards the door, "Alvios, you might wanna start elsewhere. Check with our contacts, get whatever info you can. Oh," Luke paused and turned to his friend with a grimace, "And you may want to go retrieve Yvette and he crew. Somethin' tells me that they were never 'spose to get back to Arcadia alive. That survey group didn't have any CMAS mages of interest innit. They all seemed like newbies fresh outta' the academy. Seems a little careless for a survey group, if you ask me."

	"Hail, travelers!" The shorter man called, waving his hand overhead in an oddly dignified fashion that contrasted his demeanor significantly. He patted his shirtless chest and smiled with a nod, "We seem to be a tad turned around! Might we be welcome to that castle city over yonder?" He questioned.

	Haley shifted uncomfortably in place as Jager approached her, fumbling about the lead seat with thoughts of assassination and contempt on her mind. Her leather shoulder-pads dug into the right side of her neck as she turned her head up and towards Jager with a nervous smile. "Oh, ah, yes! That's my name," She affirmed, standing up and accepting Jager's Greeting, albeit with an awkward, reluctant motion of her right hand. "There's no need for these formalities though, It's quite alright! Ahaha.."
