Cassandra may find it harder to push out the voices in her mind and control her illusions, Leon would find it harder to control the destination of his teleportation and may teleport much further than he could, and Elio's control over his chaos flame would diminish as the flame grew in intensity. As well, a presence inside the house beckons each one to head inside. This presence is unlike anything the group had experienced. It felt like something incredibly ancient was looking at each one and commanding them to obey its instruction. [/quote] [i]As Leon approached the house, an overwhelming pressure caused a chill to run down his spine. It's as if an immense power was running through the area. In a more nerdy comparison, it was like facing a level 99 boss but you're level 1 using the basic equipment at least. Any false move could lead to his downfall, and not even his power would be able to save him. Whatever this presence was, there was absolutely no way to defeat it. The only way Leon could get through it was to await whatever it had to do. And that wasn't the only thing eating away at Leon's heart.[/i] [color=8882be](As if this oppressing presence wasn't problem enough, it feels like my powers are spiraling out of control. If I teleport right now, I could end up in another country. I don't think I'm supposed to actually feel this way, but I do. Whoever's emitting this aura is messing up with mine and this isn't good.)[/color] [i]He thought.[/i] [quote=@MagratheanWhale] [color=6ecff6]"Can you all get off the grass, it hurts."[/color] Alora pointed towards the grass, before motioning towards the gravel driveway nearby. [color=6ecff6]"I am Alora, I take it you all got the same letter from a benefactor?"[/color] [/quote] [i]But before he could continue thinking, a woman's voice ran through his ear. He decided to turn at her. Upon first glance, she did look rebellious. The type of woman who would definitely play punk rock (or even heavy metal) in showbiz. Intimidating, cold, fierce... aggressive. With the intonation of voice that perfectly suits the role of a villainess, the berserker types. Though before any sort of reaction, he just followed her instructions and stepped into the gravel driveway. It was smarter for him to just listen to her than to confront her.[/i] [color=8882be]"Sorry, I didn't mean to actually damage nature. In any case, I did receive the same letter as you described. And my name's Leon. It's a pleasure."[/color] [i]He responded, introducing himself to Alora.[/i] [i]It seems like Alora didn't recognize Leon's identity as Alear, which was quite beneficial for him. Not only he didn't need to act like his idol self, but he could also chat with her, a stranger that never knew his other side and seemed uninterested in it. After all, not everyone was a fan of Alear Alstroemeria.[/i]
