Kokotha: Old Magic, New World

@Yomojo
Thank you... the man said, stepping into the elevator with them, between Hueco and Juniper. As the elevator doors closed, he removed his hood, revealing his true appearance. If it hadn't been apparent before, it was clear now, the man wasn't human. His head resembled a mass of intertwining vines and bramble, like a walking bush. Removing his gloves, his hands had the same appearance. An Amalgamate?! We will... Be on... VIP floor.

Hueco's eyes widened in surprise. I've heard of and seen Amalgamates capable of speech... But I haven't seen one wear clothes or imitate a human before. he said, inspecting the man, leaning in to get a closer look. The greeter was like some sort of plant man... Taking the shape of a human. From the looks of it, the amalgamate was allowing it.

Hueco raised a brow at the man's silence, before looking to Juniper and nodding. "Remember, I'm here if dangerous comes. he said in a quiet tone. I may not look like it, but I can help myself in a tussle." He said flexing. His bicep didn't exactly look strong.

The man would lead them down the falls and into the apartment complex. Noticably, there were more people in the same outfit as the man leading them, albeit without the hood obscuring their faces; they all looked human, some with large tattoos on their faces. Many wearing sleeveless shirts, exposing their brands if they were on their arm. "All Casters, huh? No surprise..."

Finally, the tall man would lead them to an elevator, ushering them in with a nod. Finally, with a hushed, odd voice, he spoke. Wuh... W-welcome... his voice, the way he enunciated, sounded less human, and more like something learning to talk.

Hueco bowed to the man, being polite. Despite researching Amalgamates, experimenting on them, and practicing in the art of Manipulation, he saw them as kin. Anyone who wanted to understand more about amalgamates was an ally of his. Greetings. He said, nodding, You are with the Radiance correct?

The man nodded quietly, but didn't speak. Rather, he stood aside, opening the door, letting the two, and their robotic companion, through; he even motioned inside. Despite his lack of speech and the way he obscured both body and face, which Hueco found somewhat suspicious, the man's posture and mannerisms contained no hostility.

It's strange though... We claim that they are destructive and terrifying monsters. However, it isn't unheard of in our research that an amalgamate is capable of communication. We've run some through puzzles. Similar to puzzles used on human infants to test their motor skills and problem solving. Hueco said, as he stopped in front of a large building, nodding to Juniper to note it as their destination. Hueco continued. Some were even capable of minor speech. Even some could use minor sign language. Nothing beyond things like "Hello," "No," "Yes," or "I'm hungry." Some we weren't even sure of if they understood what the words meant. I'm not sure what King could be or if he is truly an Amalgamate but he could potentially mean unlocking things we never knew about Amalgamates. Before them, waiting at the entrance to the apartment, was a man in white, a hood up. On his lapel, was the symbol that Hueco had drawn just days ago on the blackboard.

Bowing would be good. Hueco said, looking to Juniper.

Looks like they were going to whoever was responsible for Mary. Family or caretakers maybe? Hopefully someone with medical expertise, the little girl might want to get that blood vomiting looked at.

"...Umm...am I in trouble?"

Oh! Um... Don't worry, you aren't in trouble. Ayem and I are just worried about you, that's all. We're not your caretakers, but we want to find the people who are. Grazia said, partially improvising.

Now looking to Ayem, Grazia stated. I actually just got off a cargo ship that came here... Kinda snuck on you see. She said, putting "kinda" in air quotes, a nervous grin on her face. If you need transport, I can point some out.

The Emblem of the Tower: Another Kokotha RP

@hefewy
Hm... So you comply. You have held your end of the bargin, I hold mine. She said, smiling slightly. You are aware of the curse? Every child of the Harvestmen who took part in the slaughter was said to be cursed. But there is another story. A story of a father. A father who loved his daughters so much that he created a world for them. A world that they couldn't leave. So that they would be with him forever. My father.

She said, clutching at the rune resting on her lap. I wish for you to go to the basement of this castle... And kill my father. To break the illusion of this place. To destroy this facade of a castle. End the curse of the slaughter at Ramshorn. He is in pain, wallowing in misery. Please... For my sake, my sisters, and his. For the people slaughtered at Ramshorn. He mustn't continue to live.

I'm sure you're stronger than me. Getting a rune doesn't mean I'm automatically able to lift heavy objects. I just don't completely trust people with this suitcase, Hueco chuckled, before leaning in and teasing the content so suitcase, whispering it so the bystanders wouldn't hear. It's an Amalgamate. But don't let that be known. People might freak out. He left it at that, not touching upon it further. Swiftly changing to the subject of King.

The strangest thing about him, as stated earlier, is that he looks incredibly human. It's even said he is a man who purposely became an Amalgamate... Or was an Amalgamate and modified his appearance to look human. Which is it, I'm not sure on. Hueco said as he walked along, looking at her butler bot as it walked, intending on studying its movements. How do I put it... He wants to unite Amalgamates and humans. I am sure you see problems with his plan. Not every Amalgamate is sane like he is. Some don't even have sentience.

Such exquisite design! Folds up for easy transportation and follows simple orders. Hueco said, marvelling at the creation, inspecting it. Sure he was more into Amalgamates, but that didn't mean he wouldn't be fascinated by the creations of others... And from the looks of it, bystanders were interested as well, staring at the two, many noticing their uniforms.

"The Universal Machine? Here? They must be on official business.
"What is that device? Looks like something out of a book."
"If that girl has a robot... Wonder what that beastkin's suitcase does...?"

At Juniper's question, Hueco shook his head. The contents of this suitcase are a bit... Finicky to handle. I'd rather it be in my hands. I only let my boss hold it. Patting the suitcase, he added Plus, it's kinda heavy. Heavier than it looks at least.

Rubbing the back of his head, Hueco chuckled quietly, proud of himself. Nice to get praise now and again, especially from people who look up to him. The town of Bishmare. One of the earliest settlements of Kokotha, since built up... Hasn't been changed in decades though, other than a few technological improvements. Hueco said, looking around, seeing the town as a piece of history.

Hueco pointed past the train station, keeper into the Town. Right up there. An apartment building just over yonder. The members will meet us outside... Hueco held his suitcase tightly. Seems suspicious doesn't it? I was wary about it, but the stories about their leader helped me keep trust in them. I will tell you more about him along the way.
