The ambience felt as heavy as the bones of the late Balerion. Lysara of Lys stood perfectly still, not making eye contact with the sovereign. She could hear the subtle shuffling of his brother's limbs, fists clenched in tension. But she needed to dare risk herself in this given opportunity. Through his brother, her words could reach one of the most influential women of the world and her king. Even if King Jon was a great individual, it was no doubt that it was she, the Mother of Dragons, the true head of the Seven Kingdoms.

What she heard made her felt reassured, and in the same span of time, dread. "Your Grace is well informed." She answered to Queen Daenerys answer. "Indeed, our mother was a Rogare." Even if I never met her myself. She continued mentally. What were the chances of the Queen knowing the rest of her...peculiar family story? Mayhaps even they could even feel the need to enact justice by blood.

But no, the rulers of Westeros had other plans. Plans she could abide by, and that rowed in her direction. She performed an elegant curtsy. "You are most generous, your Grace. I shall serve her to the best of my humble skill." Lysara added. After all, catering to the wishes of a princess was probably as close to the Targayens and the legends of dragons as she would ever be. Her eyes rested on Seran, who no doubt had been cast an unfavorable lot. Perhaps this was the manner to claim back their generosity.

But if there was doubt and concern in Seran's soul, he chose not to show it, simply nodding. "Stepstones shall it be then, your Grace." He added, by offering a curtsy. Other people, many people would join him in the campaign, and the prospect looked glum, but the silver thread that her sister had caught invigorated him. Even if the Queen had a fit of the proverbial Targayen madness and ordered him to march upon the Doom of Valyria, he would not have minded.

After all, the egg and Lysara were safe. Sort of.

Once they were dismissed, Seran walked half in a daze, with tired small steps. The tiredness of the fights, and the fast pace of events stunned him. It was only when a pair of hands grabbed his forearm, and tugged from him. Spinning almost without resistance, his face met that of his unmasked sister.

<<"That turned out alright.">> Lysara said, giggling slightly. <<"Step by step, we're doing our thing, aren't we?">>

Seran just offered a tired smile. <<"You're not going to the Stepstones. I have an inkling even Ser Aerion Goldfyre has doubts about the place.">> The Essosi replied as both of them went to the side of a hallway of the keep, to have a little chat.<<"Many of these Westerosi are thrilled about the glory of the fight, but I can see it being a huge mess.">>

It was then when the hand of the younger sister reached for her brother's face, caressing one of many scars. <<"Try to survive brother. Don't...chase after the glory. There will be more chances.">>. The younger of the Lyseni siblings frowned.<<"This will be the first time we will part. Will you be okay?">>.

<<"It will be fine. Despite that tool of Master-at-arms, we still have Aerion and his troop. He has fought there before aswell. But I could say the same about you.">> Seran added, voicing his concern. <<"I can see this is a place of hidden daggers">> Seran added, clasping his sister's hand in his own.

<<"We are from Lys, brother. This can't be worse than that.">> Lysara giggled, as she let go of his brother. <<"Now shoo, we've got many things to do. Get the things out of the inn. Even that stupid magpie of yours.">> Lysara added, as she hurried her brother, who then started to distance from her sister.

Lysara sighed, and rested in the hallway, thinking on how was the best manner to present herself to the princess. Leaning against a solid wall was nice. Due to her former mercenary trade, tents could rarely be used for such purposes.
Will get a post, and hopefully an interlude scene just after the meeting, is that okay?

Ryuji stared silently at the hand, his fists still clenched. He stood perfectly still, except for his eyes, showing a rather obvious degree of surprise steered towards Megumi. "Naive..." He parroted as she went on her tirade. Well, this meant that out of three girls in this school he had shown concern, two of them were bloodlustful manipulators, and the third of them had called him crazy. It was a disheartening record, but still Ryuji kept silent and endured.

And then came Ichihara's taunt. It was jarring, yes. But it didn't affect him as much as the girl's words. After all, he just wanted to enter a fight with a cheap provocation. His fists relaxed as he breathed deep, and without mediating a word, he began to turn back.

"I am sorry for the misunderstanding. But heed me, Ichihara-san. I do not care who you are in the slightlest. Nor what perceived problems you might feel there are. I just wanted to prevent someone from sporting a scar home, and explaining her parents how she got marred for life in a stupid folly." Ryuji said, his eyes tracing to Megumi. "You're wasting your blessings Yukazu-san, but you've got your own will and face your own decisions. I shall not interpose myself any further." He pondered, as he began to walk towards the newcomer.

One of the rank 49. The top dog students. Many would hesitate in their presence. Ryuji...did not, as he walked with his massive frame towards the petite girl, making the comparison seem almost comical. And then out of a sudden, his bear paw shot forward... and pat the tiny student in the head.

"Tamura-san, rest assured. I can take care of my own messes." said Ryuji with an stupid grin on his face. "Speaking of lunch, have you had yours? I...could treat you, for the trouble. I mean, lollipops aren't that healthy for a growing girl." The giant rumbled, almost in an embarassingly kind voice.
@AtomicNut Are you having trouble with anything specifically?


Just lazy and tired in general.
@Greenie Hope you start feeling better soon :)

@Nightwing95@Monochromatic Rainbow@AtomicNut@Winston Smith@NecroKnight@Celeste@Abefroeman@Masterkeun How are you guys doing?


bleh. Might get a post one of these days. Still a bit on a block.
Sult's facial expression was that of a deep frown when Livius brought her familiar resemblance, of all things. "Don't compare me to that woman." She hissed beneath her teeth, as she stood tall, her arms crossed. It was then when she noticed someone offering wine. Good. After all the fort slaughter and the bandits, and the lady Cal, she needed a drink.

And given that Livius was declining, she took her chances and sipped the concoction in one go, cheekily.

Nero, in the meantime sighed, taking a fairly more neutral approach. Well, clusterfuck doesn't beging to describe the situation. We're on the hunt of a really dangerous artifact, and this twerph shows at the worst possible moment? With that guy. Despite the good looks, something is off. The elder twin thought mentally before adding. "I relinquished captaincy of the Ravens a while ago, to join this order alongside Sult." It was her answer.

Well, at least it seemed that Livius was going to speak with the captain, to see what this was about. Meanwhile, Sult slipped by, shadowing her sister, a whisper in her ear.

"Yeah, that beefy lacky of his is not bad in the eye. Your sight is betraying you, Nero..."

Nero sighed. "I could say the same about you, but with a different bodypart." She retorted as she fell in line to follow Livius. "Now, let's see what this is about." She added, following her brother.

"Yep. We should be helping the mini captain." Sult added, as she also fell in line.
@AtomicNutI will edit. Thanks for telling me so.


NP. I found a better pic now.
@dereken Thiara looks human, not human -ish. I could not find a better pic of a red headed sorceress that doesn't look anime-ish.
Ryuji stood silent, his eyes peeking at the younger girl. He admitedly, blushed a little when she made a request. Oh, she wants to train her buddy. Well, he's not a deliquent. And he's weak. He probably can use some help and being guided in the righteous path. Ryuji thought to himself, as he nodded, before looking at Kazuya. Plus that broom seems a wicked weapon, all things considered. Most humble peasant tools are effective weapons. He shrugged.

"Alright, I guess I could help him..." He said, before his attention turned to the bloodthirsty challenger once more and the exchange with Megumi. This left him mortified to an extent. So she wasn't that different from his childhood friend, huh? It wasn't surprising. Still, the situation degenerated, and the humble broom user had decided to land a sneak attack at the worst moment possible. Potentially, the situation was escalating, as both the rank zero girl and the newcomer were squared off against veterans.

Chest thumping was awful, wasn't it?

And yet...

"Forgive me, master." Isobe Ryuji said, calmly breathing with his eyes closed. "But if inaction can make people potentially hurt because of my mistakes, so I shall take a forceful approach." Ryuji added, as he advanced as a human shield before Megumi and Kazuya.

"Yukazu-san, I shall not be used as an excuse to fight. I can take care of my own." He breathed deep, formulating his resolution.

"I shall be your rank 0 opponent, Ichihara-san. Me and no one else." Ryuji added. "Nobody needs to get needlessly hurt because of my carelessness." The colossus added, his fists clenching.

"And if anyone else wants to fight, I will face them aswell."

Ryuji stood still for a few moments, assessing the situation. He had managed to raise quite the commotion on accident. No one had gotten hurt however. This was a good thing. His head tilted so slightly when a feminine voice beckoned to him with concern. Just like his friend. There was this elegant girl right next to him, in a witch outfit. She seemed a nice girl, if a bit odd. But she had...hm, not the most upstanding company. Ah well, there were other more mysterious things in this school after all.

"Yukazu Megumi-san, was it? I appreciate your concern...but I am otherwise fine. Tell me how may I help you." He answered in kind, his lips turning into a welcoming smile. If running errands was going to be his price for otherwise raising too much attention, it was quite the bargain... He noticed another boy coming to him but he didn't say anything... Well, it was for the best...

The hand in his shoulder executing the shove told him otherwise. Almost on instict, he redistributed the energy of the push and caused him to spin, his feet rearranging itself to maintain his footing.Forceful and full of bloodlust huh? Ryuji added mentally, as he gazed down on the rude person. "I am sorry for my carelessness." He droned as he eyed the other man. He's itching for a fight is he? He thinks I would be a good fight. Ryuji raised his hand to his chin, as he went out for a direct jab, questioning his motives, his pacifism. But to Ryuji, those words rang hollow. Fight me, fight me damnit! is was he is trying to say.. "My motives are my own." He said. And then out of nowhere he raised both hands... and produced a gallic shrug. "I might aswell drop one of these days, but it feels bad to not attempt something for the sake of peace." He added, his eyes staring at Ban. "And now if you will excuse me, I shall attend to the lady's plea first."

He finished, before noticing the third guy that approached him. "Oh, okay." He added. Well, it was his own mess wasn't he? "Just leave things as is..." He added, his hand reaching for his pocket. His AED, his beads were now on display. He began to focus, gripping the beads as he chanted...

...and as if reverse the crater crack and debris rolled back into place, restoring the situation as it was before. "I trust this should be enough." He finished.

"Apologies, Yukazu Megumi-san... where was I? Oh, right... how may I help you?" Ryuji smiled.
