Just as Caleb complimented Nomis on his speech to the people of Hollow Bastion, his uncle would acknowledge it. Nomis would then ask about the task that he had given Caleb. The teen shrugged slightly. “It went as you predicted, Uncle. Ryoko roared as she only could and stormed off.” Caleb said expressing his annoyance at Ryoko. “I don’t see why The Emperor keeps her around. Her anger problems are on no level that I ever have known anyone to have.” Caleb was just thinking out loud at this point.

By the time that Caleb had finished, Nomis would once more speak to Caleb, but this time about how The Unbound Hearts were, as he so rightly put it, giving themselves more rope to hang themselves in a metaphorical suicide. Caleb would just smile as he agreed with Nomis. He didn’t say anything as Caleb felt that he didn’t need to. Plus, that was when Nomis would once again speak to the crowd gathered below. He would state that the flying heartless were not the ones that they should fear, but rather it was the Unbound Hearts that they should. He further would say that the people of Hollow Bastion should go to their homes and let the Empire protect them.

Once he finished, Nomis would motion Caleb to follow him onto the vehicle. Caleb would silently follow his uncle into it and the door would close and the vehicle would move as the maid from before drove it. Caleb sat in the vehicle thinking about how foolish the attempts of the Unbound Hearts were. It truly was something that made Caleb laugh, which eventually he did, but only lightly. No doubt that Nomis heard his slight laugh.

First, let me say that I am definitely interested, so do let what I am about to say throw you off.This idea is wonderful, but something in me thinks that this would be a great Nation RP. Not saying that it shouldn't be here(obvs it should be), but yeah that's my two cents. Now with that being said, color me interested. :3

Okay, so I posted. :3

Solace In Night: A Kingdom Hearts RP

Laying in the bed of the room that he rented in the Inn, Cerden had his eyes wide open as he thought about the day ahead. He was no stranger to deep thinking while still laying in bed. Actually, for the longest time, it has become a part of his morning ritual. It’s actually the first thing that he does before even doing anything else, that even includes showering and other such things. On his mind currently was the fact that the Empire’s storehouse exploded and Cerden had no doubt in his mind that it was Nomis or at the very least, someone within the Empire’s doing. Considering it would look bad on them to the people of Hollow Bastion if the word got out that one of their main storehouse facilities got hit by the Unbound Hearts, most likely the notion of blowing it up and making it look like that the Unbound Hearts did it out of desperation was their strategy going into having it explode. Of course, there were other aspects that Cerden was considering.

Feeling that he was taking too long thinking about what most likely happened, Cerden would prop himself up into an up-right position, causing the blankets to fold over as his body created momentum to sit up correctly. Then, as he started to wake up more, Cerden would wipe his eyes lightly with his hands, wiping any eye dust that might have gathered in the corners of them. He would then remove the blankets from his body, and shift his body as his feet touched the ground and he was leaning a little forward rubbing his head a bit. Taking a brief moment to just let the last few yawns escape his body, Cerden got up, bones cracking as he would stretch and release a loud moan-like noise.

Cerden would take the next twenty minutes getting ready for the day ahead. It was a nice view out of the window as he briefly took a moment to enjoy the sunrise, but after that, Cerden continued to the bathroom, took a shower and made sure to wash his body a few times just so he got all the dirt off of his mocha-colored skin and his white hair. It only took him ten minutes to do that and once he finished, Cerden dried off his body and brushed his teeth. Afterwards, he got dressed and made sure to put the piece of Taint Metal into his pocket. He then grabbed his swords and would open the window, choosing to go out from the window, as that was his preferred way of leaving a building.

Cerden’s body propelled through the air, his hair freely floating backwards revealing his slightly pointed ears. It was by the time that he had crossed ten buildings in the time of one minute buildings that Cerden was already halfway through the town as his body moved exceptionally faster than that of a normal human. However, his hastened movement seemed to bring him to a stop as he heard Nomis’ voice. So early in the morning, but it was the voice of his brother that got his attention. It was what the Empire General was saying that took Cerden’s interest. He was blaming the explosion on the Unbound Hearts, as if spreading some type of propaganda or something like that. Cerden stood on a building about a few blocks away, but he heard every word. He just smiled and closed his eyes. “It seems that he hasn’t changed after all this time.” Cerden spoke to himself. It wasn’t like anyone could hear him.

It was after Ryoko’s rather rude and unnecessary comments that prompted her to leave with Salforge. Caleb would be lying if he wasn’t hurt. He had offered his assistance and she completely blew him off. It was her loss. Not like Caleb was going to help her after her rude comments. Regardless, Caleb would return to the monitors that his uncle had so kindly requested him to look at. As his eyes were indeed fixated on them, what he saw was his Uncle Nomis addressing the explosion from the night a few hours ago and telling them that it was indeed the Unbound Hearts that did it and not The Empire. “I guess that‘s my cue.” [/b]Caleb said as he clapped once and nodded.

Getting up from the chair that he was sitting in, Caleb waved his arm and a portal of darkness appeared. He would simply step through it, and within the very second that he did, Caleb was right beside his uncle as he had just finished speaking to the citizens of Hollow Bastion, assuring them that The Empire was not the one to blame for the storehouse fire and that it was the Unbound Hearts. “A very nice speech, Uncle Nomis.” Caleb said to his uncle, but he was more like a father to the teenager, as Caleb’s own father left him when he was younger and Nomis raised him.

Jaakuna could feel it, her annoyance with him. It was one of those 'really?'-moments, especially just the way Aloa was looking at Jaakuna. It was suggesting that she thought less of how smart he really was. It even got to the point that Aloa would divert her attention to Emiri and she would tell Emiri to watch out for Chaos as he would not hesitate to do what he did with her memory again or how many other times it took for Emiri to stay out of the danger zone of her powers. Of course, Emiri had a big problem with that and Jaakuna did as well. Emiri pretty much said what Jaakuna was going to say himself, but of course in a different way.

When Emiri and Aloa finished exchanging words(more so Aloa responding to Emiri), the viera leader would go back onto the subject of what she was talking about before and said that she didn't know exactly what Levi did to Emiri or even the effects of it, but she advised both Jaakuna and Emiri to have caution around Levi. Jaakuna definitely agreed with her. At the time that Levi helped and when he agreed, he didn't even stop to think what possible consequences could arise from it. Safe to say that Jaakuna was half-regretting even letting her do whatever she did to Emiri.

Before Jaakuna and Emiri would leave, Jaakuna turned to Aloa. "Oh Aloa, I think you might want to return to Stigma. Something terrible has happened and I just think that you might want to check it out." Jaakuna told her, though she probably already knew about it.

Why was it always they seemed to get on each other's nerves? Savayna didn't know what it was, but Nadeline always pushed her buttons, but this time around, it was more like that of siblings rather than two females hating each other. It was that very reason that made Savayna smirk slightly and she placed a hand on her hip. She just gave Nadeline a look and she said nothing.

As the two ladies seemed to exchanging certain looks, Grant would speak to WEsley about how he thought their Espers wouldn't be as effective as they all hope they would be. Wesley sadly was starting to think the same thing. It was true that against Omega that their Espers seemed several levels above him in the power department, but that was because Omega Weapon XII was a hume-made machine. Against one of the strongest creation of the gods, perhaps their espers were indeed at a lower level. There was also the fact that Ultima was most likely their leader, which also made it even harder for them and the upcoming fight with The High Seraph. "I suppose you're right, Grant." Wesley said agreeing with Grant, but with much reservation about some aspects. "I pray, for our sakes, that Ultima does not prove to be as strong as the legend says."

If Jaakuna's worry scale was at maximum before, then by when Aloa had revealed to which she was unsure of, Jaakuna was shitting bricks. He didn't eve know what to make of it. For Aloa to say that whatever magicks that she sensed inside Emiri — the same thing that Jaakuna was worried about beforehand — was something the viera were not able to recognize meant that whatever was in Emiri was something worse than Jaakuna could even imagine. To make matters worse, Levi was most likely the one who did this, which also meant that everyone would blame Jaakuna for this.

Taking everything into account, Jaakuna did have one question he had to ask. "You said that this kind of magick is one that humes should not possess." Jaakuna said, "well, then who — or what — possesses that kind of magick?" Jaakuna asked Aloa.

The group would follow Nadeline's lead, who seemed extra chipper since the defeat of Omega Weapon. Wesley found it cute, but along with Grant, Savayna found it rather annoying. It wasn't that she didn't think that Nadeline had any right to be so positive, but it was so much so that it was getting on her very last nerve. Savayna really wanted to whack Nadeline over the head, but she had to contain herself. Instead, she would grit her teeth and stay silent.

Along the way, Grant would bring up a topic of conversation about Ultima and how most likely she would be the Esper of Light. That made sense. COnsidering they've encountered espers who all have their own elemental affinity. When Grant would mention the fact that Holy and other such magicks wouldn't have any effects, WEsley found that troubling as that completely reduced the group's own magick and abilities in half when the time came to face Ultima.

When Grant would raise the question about how since Omega Weapon was as strong as he was, would they really be able to rely solely on their own abilities. Wesley found that question troubling as well. "It does seem like we're going to be in a huge pickle." Wesley said as he found himself in deep thought, thumb to lips as he bit his thumb.

Savayna looked over to Wesley and she just sighed. "We have our Espers, right? So, what's the worry? We're going to be fine, as long as Nadeline doesn't screw it up." Savayna said bringing up her earlier annoyance with the princess. So much for keeping quiet, huh?

Time Stops For Fire(Altered Tundra and Hero)

When Aloa made a comment about how she was surprised that he agreed to let Levi help, JAakuna found the surprise to be also within him. All the things that Levi has done to not only him, but those he loves, Jaakuna knew that if there were any other way for Emiri to get er memories back and in an hastened way, then he wouldn't have let Levi help. And yet, there wasn't, so he had to let her help.

When Jaakuna found himself in a deep thought, he noticed that Aloa was already walking away back to Emiri and the other viera, so JAakuna followed suit, not saying anything. Once they got back to where Emiri was, Emiri was about to say something, but ALoa silenced her and would examine the wreath and then state that the dream powder's effects have been hastened a great deal. She would further state that since the properties of Dream Powder were as complicated as they were delicate, that even the slightest bit of altering them would be grim for the one who had it on them.

Jaakuna saw Aloa poke around Emiri's hand, which caused her to let out a slight sound of discomfort to which Emiri questioned what was wrong and Aloa responded by saying that the magicks used shouldn't be anything any humes know. Jaakuna instantly became alarmed by that. "What do you mean by that, Aloa?" Jaakuna asked as his worry was raising every second.

Time Stops For Fire(Altered Tundra and Hero)

It was as if Jaakuna could feel Emiri’s confused eyes at him. She no doubt was feeling that kind of way when he mentioned about wanting to speak with Aloa in private. He felt bad that he didn’t tell her, but before he could, he needed to be sure that what Levi did wasn’t harmful to Emiri and that there wasn’t any consequences of what she did for Emiri. So, in wanting that, Jaakuna followed Aloa and she would start to speak about how Emiri looked well for the most part, but she would also make a note that she seemed to be doing better than the viera. At that point, Jaakuna arched an eyebrow, but would stay silent.

When Aloa finished, she would then ask why Jaakuna had returned to Eruyt. Jaakuna sighed as if unsure how to word it. He looked at Aloa and just decided to speak. “The reason I’ve come back is for a confirmation about something.” Jaakuna said. “Just an hour or so ago, Levi came to my airship, The Ifrit, and told both Emiri and I that she could restore Emiri’s memory faster than what it was.” Jaakuna said. “I didn’t know what to make of it at first, but she presented her case and Emiri wanted to at least try, so I let Levi do it. It went well at the end of it. I mean, it didn’t seem that Emiri was poisoned or anything, but I don’t know..” [‘b]Jaakuna bit his thumb as he definitely was unsure of something. [b]“There was this moment of a flash of some kind. I only caught it for a second, but I could instantly feel something very off-putting about it.”

Realizing that he too was taking too long to get to the point, Jaakuna would just say it. “And that’s the reason I’ve come back. Could you perhaps aid us, yet again, and see if you can sense anything off within Emiri?”

As they went through the apparent darkness that hid Eruyt from the outside world, they would soon make their way into the village. It didn’t matter how many times that Jaakuna saw Eruyt. He was always blown away at how such a large village was hidden away from Ivalice. Of course he knew clearly it was the manipulation of mist, but that still didn’t stop him from being totally surprised by it. Even more so how perhaps living in the village was starting to appeal to Jaakuna. Maybe it was that one mention that Aloa made of him living among them. That still resonated with Jaakuna.

As he kept thinking about it, Jaakuna and Emiri kept on walking and it wasn’t until that they saw the viera gathered around as if in a circle of some kind. When Jaakuna and Emiri’s presence became known, the viera dispersed. By this point, it looked like Ryua was in pain and Mtra was trying to help her out. Jaakuna wondered what exactly had happened, but before he could even get the chance to ask, Aloa came into view and Jaakuna heard something about the influence of ‘him’ and The High Seraph. He could only assume that they were talking about Zodiark and Ultima. On to what exactly it was had Jaakuna wondering.

Aloa would soon turn her attention to Jaakuna and Emiri and would further state that fate does not seem to give way to surprises. Jaakuna laughed slightly at that. “Good to see you too, Aloa.” Jaakuna said with a sly chuckle. He then looked to Emiri with a half-smile, then he gave a look to Aloa. “I wish I could say that we’re here for a casual visit.” Jaakuna admitted, “It is urgent that I speak with you in private.” Jaakuna said, looking at Emiri briefly before turning his gaze to Aloa.

At the point the bike was going at a fast speed, Jaakuna couldn’t help but smile and laugh slightly as she would grip him as tight as she could. Perhaps the speed that he had the bike going at was a little too fast for her. It’s not like it wouldn’t matter much as the view of the entrance to Eruyt came to view. On the very second that it did, Jaakuna had stopped the bike, placed it down gently and the both of them got off of it.

As Jaakuna would get off the Aegis War Bike, he heard Emiri ask him exactly why they were at Eruyt and she would further state that she hadn’t been to this part of the Gilmore and she would ask and/or to confirm to Jaakuna. “Yeah, this is where they live.” Jaakuna told her. He then looked at the obvious darkness that the way to Eruyt had. It was always weird seeing that knowing that on the other side was something way different from anything in Gilmore. “We’re here to visit someone. There’s something I need confirmation on.” Jaakuna told Emiri.

It was like everyone was summoning their espers. Wesley and Savayna had done so and it proved to be effective, so of course, Grant would join the party with Zeromus, though it did seem that the Gravity Esper wasn’t all too thrilled to see The Omega Weapon XII. His annoyance was in the form of some rather brutally-honest words about how it was an abomination and that the humes themselves created something far out of their control. The other Espers were slightly annoyed by Zeromus’ annoyance, but once he activated his unique form of powers in the Arcane arts, that would put a small smile on both of them as the pure force of Zeromus’ Gravija spell almost crushed Omega to death.

Wesley looked on and he couldn’t believe that Zeromus had such strength within him. Sure, he knew that the Espers had magick that no hume could even dream of achieving, but he never believed that with just one spell that the Omega Weapon could be drawn to its metaphorical knees. Truly, the espers were great in every sense of the word.

“Then, shall we finish this?” Hashmaal said as he started to crack his knuckles.

“About damn time!” Mateus said as he raised his trident up.

Working as a team, Hashmaal would jump about five feet into the air, and punch the ground with his ring hand, sending a ripple through the ground and in quick succession, the area beneath Omega Weapon exploded with liquid hot magma and it sent the machine beast flying into the air. As it was in suspended air, that’s where Mateus entered the fray as he swam through the air. His Trident would pierce through the beast’s center, sending a Blizzaja-level spell through it’s body, freezing it internally and eventually, externally. About three seconds later, it fell to the ground, cracking into dozens upon dozens of mechanical bits, thus killing the ever-so famous Omega Weapon XII.

Both Wesley and Savayna looked at each other and then to the now dead Omega Weapon. They were literally speechless about what they had just witnessed. Be it the fact that they killed Omega Weapon or how they did it, the both of them stood still in awe. Hashmaal looked back and saw the expression on Savayna and Wesley’s face. He smirked slightly. “Our job is done.” He said, "Call upon me when you need my assistance further, Wesley.” Hashmaal said as he would disappear from their sights.

“Try not to die out here.” Mateus told Savayna as he too disappeared from their sights.

“It is done.” Said Levi.

“Good. Our plan is coming full fruition.” Said a deep, ominous voice.

“Yes, you’re right. It’s as you’ve said from the very beginning.” Levi replied.

“You sound like you doubted me..?” Asked the voice.

Levi laughed slightly. “Oh come on now, there has been plenty of reasons to doubt you, but worry not, with the recent developments, my doubts are non-existent.” Levi informed him.

“That’s good to hear. Our plan relies on the trust in both. I know that I’ve placed my entire trust in you for my plan to work.” The voice told Levi.

“And it’s rightfully placed. The Time Scion has one of your Dark Seeds, and by the time she uses her powers once more, she will be so consumed by your darkness, that she’ll have no choice but to come to you for it to be removed, Master Zodiark.” Levi said.

“This is all true, but the wildcard in this all is Chaos. The fool almost wrecked our entire plan by resetting her memory. If he feels that she is slipping again, there is no guarantee that he won’t do it again.” Zodiark said as if troubled by Chaos and what he might do.

“Don’t worry, Master. If I’m not mistaken, you yourself said that the other espers were not happy with Chaos, so I doubt he will do anything like that again.” Levi said, as if trying to reassure him.

“I hope for both of our sakes that you’re right.” Zodiark said.
