[b][i][u]Butter Daisy Forest[/u][/i][/b] Once the shadows before them had been either vanquished, or fled, Crobalt gazed at his Chronovoker one last time after he'd sheathed his sword and stowed his shield on his back. Listening to the ensuing exchange, Crobalt kept his silence for a time while the others spoke, just running through key fact the facts in his head. [i][b][color=0054a6]"First, the laws of this world are radically different to ours, both in terms of combat and travel.

Turning to look, they'd see a brown haired male in a white lab coat lying face down on the floor, cursing under his breath. The ensuing commotion of the battle between the Lesser shadows and the newly awakened Persona users naturally caught the attention of Mark, who came to investigate...
