"I think that if things continue like this, it will only bring even more conflict to the guild and threaten to hurt how we work as a team. Whatever reasons Neil and Bartholomew have to be at each other's throats though, they really need to clear this misunderstanding and stop with this nonsense... The problem is... Bartholomew seems to be a really... stubborn person..."
Freyr


"I agree. This should stop. The question is how." Talia said as she put the finishing touches on the guild's dinner. "Do we put them on a same quest together? No, that'll probably end badly. Uhh... I don't know, it's like putting a snake and a mongoose together. One way or another, someone's gonna get hurt."

"Anyway, we're just about done." Talia said. "Someone should head over and tell the others that dinner's ready. Tell Bart to come back too... or, we invite Neil instead. He hasn't had dinner with us for quite a while now."

"Huh, someone I like? Oh, you mean you-Haha, no way! Guildmaster Bart was someone who I owe a debt, and I'm here mainly for work till I have enough to continue my journey. But...if you're asking my type. Well, someone I can spar on an equal level first is a must. As to the rest, eh, a nice person perhaps? I'm not sure I can say that since I'm a monk after all."
Yang Bethlehem


"So a nice person who can beat you up. Say, you're not a Lizardman in disguise are you? Haha." Haley joked. "Anyway, you're not staying long here? That's sad, but no surprise there. People seem to come and go in this guild. Now that I think about it though, I don't see myself spending the rest of my life here either."

"To be honest, if I had to go on looks alone- Well Haley... I do like the way your wings sheen, and your smile... and- That's not like a confession or anything! There's more then that to be into someone right? Hehe. Like, you have an idea of that special someone. I mean, I'd always imagine I'd be with someone, that I could learn things with. Someone I could teach. Someone who I could keep discovering new things with. See that sparkle in her eyes. Share that sense of wonder. It's the most well, beautiful feeling you know?"
Ozzy Skyway


The comment about her looks caught Haley by suprise, and a faint blush appeared on her cheeks. She then snickered and returned to her jovial self. "Hey, thanks for the compliment. And don't be too embarrassed telling monster girls they look good. We're always fishing for that." She finished with a chuckle. "Don't go too far, though, or you'll definitely end up getting snatched."

"Ohhh, so you'd like to be the 'teacher' in a 'teacher-student' relationship, eh? Oh my, I didn't expect you to be so... different." Haley chuckled. "I'm sorry but seriously, if I meet a Hakutaku, I'll send her your way."
~ Cal Family Mausoleum ~


Interacted with: @VitaVitaAR


Jarde's guess was way off. Way too off in fact that he shrunk away from the interrogation in shame and tried to blend into the background as he could. To be fair, a declaration like that could mean anything. Could he really be blamed for coming up with that conclusion? Such was Jarde's rationale to absolve his rather offensive suggestion.

The Nem assassin cleared things up. Apparently, she was forced to attack the Princess since her sister was being held hostage by hostile entities hiding in the mausoleum of the Cal family. Six mercenaries and a necromancer. Well that was a problem. A person that can raise the dead in the middle of a graveyard? It was pretty clear what was going to happen.

Fanilly gave the order to mobilize. The Crown Knights would remain with the Princess, as they should, while the Iron Roses would go to the graveyard to deal with the menace and save the Nem's sister. Jarde wondered how seven people managed to sneak into the graveyard and hole up there without anyone noticing. And why did they get an unwilling Nem girl to be their assassin? Probably to keep themselves safe while the poor innocent Nem takes all the fall. Quite insidious, Jarde thought. Good thing their plan got derailed.

---

The Iron Roses only had little time to prepare. Luckily for Jarde, he already had his sickle weapons so all he had to do was shed his armor and he was good to go. The Nem girl was tagging along too, introducing herself as Tili Vosahnn.

Their destination was the graveyard, not too far away from the castle. Jarde saw how beautiful their graves were with the finely sculpted tombstones and elaborate statues of the goddesses. Not to mention the large mausoleums that some families had here that kept the remains of the family's ancestors. Man, these upper-class people were rich even in death. That said, a graveyard's a graveyard and walking through one in the middle of the night was admittedly spooky.

The knights were soon at one of the mausoleums. One that belonged to the Cal family as it bore their symbol, an eight-pointed star, but right now it was the lair of an evil necromancer.

The mausoleum entrance door opened and out came an unfamiliar person. One of the mercenaries no doubt, out to patrol and momentarily oblivious to the group of knights descending upon him.

Jarde readied. A swift knee to the face should knock the guard to the wall and knock him out. The young knight was about to make his move when another knight dashed past him. It was Sir Gerard, sword ready and with one quick thrust, he plunged his blade into the guard. It was a silent kill. Jarde winced at the act and was also a bit peeved that his target was taken so suddenly from him.

They were at the entrance and Fanilly had ordered for Tili to lead the way. "So, Til." Jarde began as the Nem approached. "What kind of welcome are we expecting?"
I think I'll be able to post tomorrow.

"He's a part of this Guild, isn't he? Sylvia and I don't always get along, but we make up afterwards. I mean, we have to, we're literally attached at the hip, but you're connected too, through the Guild. I'm not saying you should apologize to him, and maybe the best you can do is agree to disagree, but this awkwardness hurts more than it helps, and if you think no one else feels or sees it, then you've got another thing coming. The longer this festers, the more people will be forced to pick sides, and that leads to a widening of the rift. I know, members of a family are supposed to protect each other, not jeopardize each other, but more importantly, family's forgive. It doesn't have to be tonight, but think about it, okay? I remember the proud look on your face when you invited us the the Guild. But this uncomfortable aura isn't something to be proud of, it doesn't feel like family."
Vivian Altissima


"I've been through a time where two of my siblings went at each other and some of my other family members got caught up in their bickering. Believe me, a divided house is NOT a fun place to be at, let alone live in. Seriously, I haven't been here for a day and I don't even know what's going on, but I can tell you that what I just saw wasn't, by all accounts, healthy. You need to nip this issue at the bud, Bart. Like Vivian said, it's only gonna get worse and it'll start affecting everyone."
Kira Gigas


"Why am I getting the double sermon?!" Bart snapped back at the monster girls, his cheer completely extinguished. "It's Neil who started it! It's him who challenged me! Me, I just want my guild to be united. I don't want division to ruin what's established here, much like you guys. But Neil doesn't seem to think so. He thinks he can just do whatever he wants and ignore me. If he can't follow simple orders then it's his fault, not mine!"

The sudden outburst had deflated Bart, who could no longer stand being in the kitchen. "You are all unbelievable." Those were his last words before leaving.

A sigh escaped from Talia, breaking the awkward silence. "Misses Kira, Vivian and Sylvia. I'm sorry for that display. You three are probably confused as to why Neil and Bart are at each other's throats." The Cyclops then began to explain. "It all started when Bart discouraged us from taking on quests involving Varjo. He feared that they might retaliate against us if they notice that we are acting against them. Or at least, aiding efforts against them."

"However, we needed funds to repair the entrance to the guild. It was broken open by a previous member and why it now looks very different from the rest of the building. Anyway, to get the funds some of our members and Neil took on a quest. I believe it was about rescuing some prisoners from Varjo. Bart found out about that and Neil took the brunt of it."

"But if you ask me, I... I don't think it's about the guild's safety."



~@Restalaan (YNG), @13org (ADA), @ShwiggityShwah~

"You already leaving, Yang?" Haley stopped the monk from leaving just yet, raising her body from the pool a bit. "Come ooooon. Stay awhile. We haven't talked about something trivial yet."

"Like, I don't know. Someone we like I guess?" Haley shrugged. "I'd say you got eyes on our guild leader Bart, but I don't think you two look good together. But hey, don't let me stop you." Turning to the two male monsters with them, she asked them. "How about you boys? Find any of us here good-looking?"
@VitaVitaAR

I think you should make another post soon since everything in your last post has been already addressed (The Nem assassin, Veileena Cal, the Princess and mobilization of the Knights).
Sorry for the late update, guys, but it looks like I'll need to move the weekly update day from Wednesday to Thursday because of Skyrim-related circumstances.

"Do you guys need help with anything?"
Freyr


"Oh, you can help us make dinner, Freyr. You look like you're clean enough not to hop into the bath."

---

The kitchen was a smaller space compared to the other rooms of the guild. Still, it was enough to fit six people. Talia displayed decent culinary skills but Neil was only good at the most basic work. Still, the cooking was going smoothly all things considered. And efficiently too with the increase of skilled manpower in the kitchen.

The steady pace was interrupted when a new but familiar figure entered the kitchen. "Hey all! Sorry I arrived pretty late. Had some errands to run and also collected some requests for us." It was the guild's leader Bart. Sniffing the air, Bart liked what he was smelling. "Oooh, what're we having for dinner tonight, my friends?"

His cheery demeanor changed when he saw Neil, and vice-versa. Bart approached Neil with a menacing stride, but Neil stood his ground. "What? Am I not allowed in the kitchen too?" Neil spoke first.

"I don't know, are you?" Bart shot back.

The two stared at each other with the rest of the kitchen awkwardly quiet to this standoff. In the end, Neil was the one to back down. He looked to the rest of the guild members and sighed. He quietly moved past Bart and towards the exit, all the while giving an obviously fake yawn. "Getting tired, guys. I'll see you all tomorrow."

After Neil had left, Bart became happy again and turned to the kitchen. "So you all, how's the quests for today?"

"Oho! Looks like we're having a mixed bath tonight." Haley noted the presence of the two monster boys that would be joining in. She did not appear to mind having the opposite sex sharing the bath with the girls.

"We'll be wearing towels so as not to make things too exciting, alright?"

---

The dirtied guild members, with Yang and Haley, entered the guild's bathroom. It was a spacious room with a pool of temperate water in the middle. Washing implements and mirrors could be found at the sides. Truly, the Dwarves were masters of building and architecture for this bathroom to be this complete. Although, one may not assume the Dwarves to be a hygienic people.

Haley, in a towel, was already immersed in the relaxing waters of the pool. "Ahhh, been waiting for a chance to use this!" Spotting Ozzy at the corner, she called out to him. "Come on, Ozzy! I told you we'd all have towels. Unless of course showing off our shoulders and legs is enough to get you going, hehe."

"Anyway, let me know if you're ready, Ada."
All my original characters are self-inserts.

I just put up a lot of smoke and mirrors on them to not make them appear blatant self-inserts.
@ShwiggityShwah

Yes. The guild bathroom is one big room with a fillable pool in the middle and several mirrors at the side.

I probably should've described it in the IC...
Hey guys, gonna have to delay the update again since I'm a lil' bit busy right now and not much people has posted yet.
