[quote=Yang Bethlehem]"I'm Yang Bethlehem, but I'm not a new fighter for Sonarra but on behalf of Bart's request for aid in this quest."[/quote]

[quote=Rebecca St. Croix][color=edd902]"My name is Rebecca St. Croix of the Church of the Benevolent Queen. I have aided your rebellion before, yet I am not a member. We are of the new Guild, in the north."[/color][/quote]

"[color=sienna]"Ah, it is most nice to meet you, Miss Yang and Miss Rebecca.[/color]" Emilio repeated the names, likely to imprint them to his mind. "[color=sienna]I thank you again for saving me."[/color]"

[quote=Magnus Eissenhoeff][color=FF5353][b]"T-T-They're err...well, Rebecca is a friend, and um...I...haven't met these two. I-I didn't really read the job all the way through, but...I read you were in trouble, so I had to come. Arletta was busy with something else at the Guild. I came with Rebecca, and then Yang and ...um..."[/b][/color][/quote]

"[color=sienna]Ahh, so you came to help a friend?[/color]" Emilio then gave a hearty laugh. "[color=sienna]I appreciate the sentiment, Magnus! I assure you the feeling is mutual![/color]" He then continued. "[color=sienna]Tayo'y magiging mabuting magkakaibigan![/color]"

After telling Emilio to head North to the river, The party reached their intended destination where a girl with a small but secure raft awaited them. "[color=cornflowerblue]Ah! Emilio! At ang mga taga-Guild![/color]" She called them out. "[color=cornflowerblue]Oh! Oh, thank you mga taga-Guild! The revolution will live on, thanks to you.[/color]" She ran into the arms of Emilio who hugged her back.

"[color=sienna]Yes indeed, mga taga-Guild. You are like siblings to me.[/color]" Emilio continued after parting from the hug. "[color=sienna]You may have said that you are working for coin for the Guild but you are still people that I need for my cause: the freedom of the Sonarran people. I assure you, you are welcome in Sonarra. If you wish to visit, you will not be harmed even if you are a monster. Trust me, I will make it known that your guild are friends of the Sonarran people.[/color]" He said before boarding the raft with Maria. "[color=sienna]Of course, I hope you will still do the requests that we will give you. I will help your guild become rich, and in return, you will win a people her freedom.[/color]"

Emilio then began singing as he and Maria floated away in the river.
"[i][color=sienna]O Marta. Kayganda ang iyong mga mata
Ang iyong apoy ay doon ko nakikita
O Marta. Bigyan mo ako ng lakas
Para ang pamumuno ng kalaban ay magwakas[/color][/i]"

The request was over. The reward was left in the ground as a small satchel containing a generous amount of gold. The guild members were free to return to the guild or go somewhere else if they desire.

[quote=Bast Ragoczy][color=C6DEFF]"Thank you... Miss Valerie, I suppose? I guess that it's for the best. Neither Gina or Eilidh would be happy if I killed him. Varjan warriors... There is no talking nor reasoning with them. It's useless to try to reason with such barbaric animals... I'm sorry to show you such unsightly display, miss Valerie. But I believe you are well acquainted with the Varjans and share my point of view regarding them, yes?"[/color][/quote]

"[color=red]I see Gina's already introduced me to you guys. I hope she didn't paint in a really bad light. Nah, she'd never do that.[/color]" The Valkyrie replied. "[color=red]And yeah, it's real hard to talk to people from Varjo. Hundreds of years of violent, twisted lifestyle will be hard to remove.[/color]" Valerie then helped [u]Bast[/u] up. "[color=red]Come on, it's my turn to give our Gandharvan friend a stern lecturing.[/color]"

[quote=Eilidh Chiron][color=9B1436]"Gina, do you know of any Varjans called Joshua or Leyanne? Our Archwizard friend mentioned them as if he was fleeing them."[/color][/quote]

"[color=orange]Huh? Joshua and Leyanne?[/color]" Gina repeated. She was still quite dazed from the fireball but she was on her feet and gave a proper answer. "[color=orange]Joshua and Leyanne? They're... They're the King and Queen of Varjo respectively. They're siblings though, not married.[/color]" The Gandharva then groaned as she clutched her head. "[color=orange]Bad news, those two. I'd explain more but right now, you should not be surprised that people are running away from them.[/color]"

Once the four have regrouped outside, Valerie the Valkyrie and Gina the Gandharva immediately got to bickering. "[color=red]What were you thinking?! This is my request, Gina! It's me who was chosen to handle this! Me![/color]" Valerie shot first. "[color=red]I could've handled this all without a hitch! And now you've ruined it by trying to do it with 'your' way![/color]"

"[color=orange]Well I wasn't going to just stand around and let you have another bloodbath![/color]" Gina shot back. "[color=orange]I don't care what that Dullahan friend of yours said! What you need to do is stay in the shrine-town and reflect or at least relax and take some time off! Not run off and indulge in your problem until you lose yourself in the passion![/color]" The Gandharva added. "[color=orange]And I'd say 'my' way went along smoothly. We may have not captured the group's leaders but we have successfully taken down these men without bloodshed. And these men can't be replaced by that group.[/color]"

Valerie looked at the unconscious Brigands, sleeping soundly despite the loud verbal spat. "[color=red]You said the group's leaders escaped.[/color]" The Valkyrie remarked. "[color=red]That means your soothing song didn't work for everybody. Am I right?[/color]" Valerie turned to [u]Bast[/u] and [u]Eilidh[/u], expecting them to answer that question and not Gina. "[color=red]Tell me, you two. What do you think?[/color]"

[b]Keeping The Peace[/b]
~[@Kyun]~

With the loud noises and the threatening flame ball, you drove off the rabbits and saved what remained of the crops. They may come back sure but after seeing a boy that may burn them to death, it was doubtful they were coming back immediately. Thus, your job in the farm was done. It was time to head on over to the abandoned parts of Boreal Port.

Night had began when you began patrolling the empty neighborhoods. The silent atmosphere made the place eerie as if something was going to ambush you at any second. Fortunately, no such event happened to you. However, you did come across a rather worrying sight. You see two men in a scuffle against each other. You have no idea why or how it came to be for these two men but it was clear that these two were fighting their hearts out.

How shall you solve this issue? Perhaps they can be scared off like the rabbits earlier?

[quote=Freyr][color=8dc73f]"Letting my feelings take control over me was a foolish thing to do. She is a Siren. She surely is used with others having feelings for her."[/color][/quote]

"[color=f26522]Whaaat?[/color]" Bart replied in disbelief. "[color=f26522]I gave you the perfect chance and you decide to blow it? Come on man.[/color]"

"[color=f26522]And you know, if someone had feelings for her then she should've already been taken.[/color]" Bart said. "[color=f26522]And then the Haley we would have will have someone with her when she joins us or at least will not shut up about her beloved.[/color]" The guild master continued. "[color=f26522]Trust me on this, my friend. She's available! Though, just keep in mind that there are no backsies once you two hit it off. Of course, if she likes you then it's already too late.[/color]"

"[color=f26522]Oh man, what a wasted chance. Well don't worry, I'm sure another will show up in the future.[/color]" Bart said. "[color=f26522]Alright, I think we've had enough break. You ready to go back?[/color]" He asked, despite the two of you only spending several minutes for the break.

[b]A Small Problem[/b]
~[@The Irish Tree] (NEP), [@Eviledd1984]~

[quote=Nephele Francine Megalos III][color=A9A9A9][b]"Neil...I'll assume you were raised in a barn. When a lady is bathing, knock. When anyone is in the bathroom, knock. I was raised without a bathroom, and even I know this...I do, however, think that you were right in trying to help where you thought it was needed. Even if you suffered for it. You may appear weak, but your heart is strong, and your health shows that you've had a caring upbringing."[/b][/color][/quote]

"I'm... sorry." Neil was still paralyzed but it appeared he was able to move his mouth now. A bit. "Wasn't... raised... in a... barn. Raised... somewhere... far... away. Very... far... away..." He first corrected [u]Nephele[/u]. "And... thanks. But... it's... true. I'm... weak. Need... to be... stronger... to... really help." He then added. "Your... scales... feel... good."

Meanwhile, the paralyzed cockroach would then be seen climbing out of the bucket and into its rim. It had a stare off with the two monsters and the human before unveiling its wings... and flying off through the window, likely never to return. This would likely sadden one of the monsters while giving relief to the other. Regardless, the small problem was taken care of again. For good this time hopefully.

"All... that... because of a... roach?" Neil asked the two towel-wrapped monsters.
