[centre][h1][color=00aeef]Ludwig Von Gravenheim Krauste[/color][/h1][/centre] [centre][h2] Hilltop Church [/h2][/centre] [centre][@Reflection] [@Kyoka] [@Floodtalon] [@EnterTheHero] [@Yukitamas][/centre] He'd been up early, after his alchemy the night before Ludwig had taken a more, tactical approach on this whole war thing. Mapping out not the town but their threats. After the letter arrived from that poor Lesser Ruler, Ludwig had began preparation. Stepping out of his chamber in his long black cloak and mask now fitted with new patterns and seemingly a change of material, and large boots perfect for stomping and staying grounded. [color=00aeef]"So do we know of any of the culprits hm?"[/color] He asked no one in particular as he paced the church hall, looking for Archer. He was hoping to do some scouting if she was up for it. [color=00aeef]"Command Seals are essential for survival, recalling and protecting a servant is first most priority of course!"[/color] he smiled behind the mask at Archer before he turned to the doors slamming open. In strode a bloody and bandaged Tesla, Ludwig's eyes widened and he hit his knees. What on earth had this god sent man of the heavens been up to that his body was decimated like that. Ludwig shuddered to now the answer before his eyes took hold of Shuten. A...a devil? Again he shook and backed off a little turning to see if anyone else was present. [color=00aeef]"Xerxes! Get over here, we have a problem!"[/color] he glanced back to Tesla and wryly smiled. [color=00aeef]"Apologies Archer but I....what on earth happened last night? ME and Archer held up the fort whilst Darius took care of other business..."[/color] He watched the broken scientist move and winced. [color=00aeef]"Xerxes can help your state, for now I'm gathering intelligence, do you have any idea what happened last night, who caused the fire, anyone we may be able to catch...Essentially< I wish to know the descriptions of anyone you might have encountered..."[/color] He glanced to Shuten again and cocked his head. [color=00aeef]"Is she...alive?"[/color]
