Primrose's understanding of the absorbed spirit's power has deepened. By relating it back to her own innate abilities, she has learned the following pyromancies: Black Serpent, Warmth, and Profuse Sweat. ***[/hider][/center] From what little Tora, Midna, and Kan-Ra had said, it seemed like the Yellow Team had survived an ambush. In that case it was good fortune that no one was killed. While the clerics got to work, Primrose thought about Kan-Ra's suggestion. Splitting up again to join with two raiding parties that were already en route. It made sense, but with their power split what would happen if after the battle, the Grimleal turned on them...? The Seekers were strong, but they would likely be outnumbered. Or was that just paranoia rearing it's head...? Primrose sighed. This was probably the fastest way to deal with the whole civil war situation, and then they could move on. Take that train and get to Galeem's guardian, defeat it and then return to Al Mamoon to finish up any diplomatic loose ends. Her eyes flickered over to Mao as he introduced himself and begrudgingly accepted to join their group. Somehow, he reminded her of someone else that she couldn't quite place. When he mentioned 'revenge' Primrose suppressed a smirk, but besides that he seemed competent enough. Midna was good at explaining everything about the messed up patchwork world they were in, so she left the princess to it. As far as preparations went, her own health and magic were restored. The dancer turned her palm up and summoned a small flame in her hand, holding it gently as she studied it. She had complete control with her own spells, and gradually she was getting more comfortable with the pyromancy. She let the fire roll between her fingers for a few moments before snuffing it. Yes, she could definitely feel herself growing familiar with it. There were also the spirits to consider. Primrose was still apprehensive about fusing with any of them, and being bogged down with a bunch of combat items wasn't her style. The others might have more use for them. She didn't immediately move to take the spirits out of her bag, instead she was distracted by a quarrel not too far off. As soon as Mao had set off, their very own Laharl had showed up. What was with that attitude though? Had he become even more aggressive since entering the city, or was he getting more comfortable and this was closer to his actual personality? Since Primrose still viewed Laharl as a child, she didn't take the insult thrown the team's way seriously at all. [color=D34C25]"Laharl, I'm hurt,"[/color] she teased, bringing her hand up and placing it dramatically over her heart. [color=D34C25]"Were you not going to get stronger with us?"[/color] Despite his rudeness, Primrose was glad Laharl was still in one piece. While Midna put the two Overlords in their place, Primrose went into her bag once more. With another battle coming up quickly she re-donned the royal pocketwatch and made sure it's matching piece was within easy reach. Before presenting the spirits from the museum to the reunited Yellow Team, she hesitated for a moment to consider whether it would be wise to show the process in front of the Grimleal... but if they'd been executing people, surely they must already know about spirits, if not the different ways to utilize them. [color=D34C25]"Here,"[/color] she said, calling the others' attention to her as she showed the spirits they'd ended up with after the heist. She wasn't exactly clear how much their newest members knew already, so she clarified briefly. [color=D34C25]"You can use these for 'preparations' before we split up again. Items, abilities."[/color] It wasn't even as much as the crash course she'd given Laharl in the sweet Parnasse, but time was of the essence. Once the preparations were over Primrose regarded the two who would lead the groups once more. Mao, the newly freed ex-Resistance member who apparently had an axe to grind and something to prove. Kan-Ra, the Grimleal captain who was for the most part a complete mystery. She thought the group going with Mao might be better off in the sparing and recruiting, because if Kan-Ra stayed to fight with the other captain and decided he'd rather not take the chance then whichever group went with him would have to contend with two captains. It was actually because of this thought process that Primrose was leaning towards going with Kan-Ra, to keep an eye on the rest of her team that went with him as well.
