[color=ec008c]"Eh! The heck you talking about fuzz ball? I was at the royal ball just like you were? What don't remember me?"[/color] Edusa said confused as she cocked her head and then grunted and shrugged before taking a look at Rivia. [color=ec008c]"Edusa D. Melromarc. At your pleasure Miss Rivia. I'd be happy to be your friend. Even if you have fuzzy ears. Not common 'round here and many folk don't seem to like those like you but I'm definitely not 'most people'. I'm Edusa and that's all I'll ever be."[/color] The royal spoke with confidence, and carefree happiness as she seemed more worried about enjoying herself than bothering with any sort of public opinion as she walked along with excited glee following the three heroes in front of her. [color=00aeef]"We're almost there! Don't you dare get lost got it!?"[/color] comments the Spear Hero as cole speaks up rather plainly. [color=f7941d]"What's the deal anyway? Shouldn't we meet up at the castle not some random place in town?"[/color] he asks as the Spear Hero shakes his head waggling a finger back and forth. [color=00aeef]"Safe doesn't mean smart dear sword."[/color] the spear hero comments cryptically. As the group approaches an alley the spear hero ducks into a nearby shop, and motions for them to follow him quickly. As the large group huddle into a nearby clothing store the clerk simply allows them to move into a backroom. It is a simple storage area but as soon as they arrive inside a young boy with purple hair comes out from beneath the clothes, and shuts the door saying a incantation the door, and room around them light up with a purple magic aura. The Spear Hero sits down on the table itself but there are stools around for those who choose to sit on them. The masked hero then speaks up considerably more seriously. [color=00aeef]"Now that we're not being overheard I suppose I better tell you what's up."[/color] Lev says his voice's cheer gone as he speaks plainly without any hint of emotion. [color=00aeef]"There's a gang here intent on ruining the King's reputation. Being a man in a woman's world is hard enough but they don't believe he'll lead the country to glory. To that extent they're trying to set up traps all around the city. Melromarc shall not burn to the ground but it will limp its way into the waves unless we round up a few of their mages. I'll need you all to cooperate if you want the good boy king to keep his throne and his life get me?"[/color] Lev says to them plainly as the boy with purple hair says nothing. Edusa for her part grumbles, and folds her arms. [color=ec008c]"Always with boys, and their shit right? Ever since Aunty died and left only a male heir instead of one of the sisters everyone's been pissy. Saying a older woman should sit the throne instead of the direct descendent of the former queen. I've heard whispers but I thought they were just that. Man I thought blood was thicker than water...Alright I'm in I'll save Vinny."[/color] comments Edusa making up her mind rather quickly as she folds her arms. Cole was surprised by how quick she was to go all in but then again it seemed on brand. [color=f7941d]"I'd like to know more info."[/color] Cole asks as Lev nods. [color=f26522]"How many?"[/color] Cole asks as Lev shrugged not really committing to a singular answer. [color=00aeef]"Enough. Enough to have everyone in here, and then some looking for their smug faces."[/color]
