A slight grin found its way onto Ian's face as the mission was explained. As the briefing finished Ian followed the couple of people who had already gone over to the Mech Bay, quietly humming a small tune as he did so. As he entered into the open area his eyes quickly found the Cataphract and he made his way over to it still quietly humming. He only stopped humming after he had slid himself into the cockpit of his mech. He sat there for a moment in the quiet dark within the machine before reaching out and flicking a few switches that caused a growling whine to be emitted from the machine as the reactor started up. He blinked as his vision lost the outline of the helmet in the peripherals, replacing it with maps, tactical readouts, and the state of various systems within the Mech. "Reactor, online. Weapon systems." Ian brought the Rotary Cannon up, grinning at the passing feeling of disconnect with his arm and the Mech's. With a whir and a locking sound Ian brought it out of safety mode for a moment, before returning it to the mode for transport and continued. " Now online. All other functioning systems, nominal." Now finished Ian keyed his comm "This is Ian with the Cataphract, ready to go."

Sarin smiled and laughed softly "Alright then Lord Imast. The rules of the game are quite simple." He pulled two dice from his own bag, along with two diamond shaped wood counters, one red, the other blue and set everything on the clear table as he moved to sit across from Imast. "The game itself is a betting game, though for demonstration purposes no one will lose any money this round. the goal is to win by having more rolls than your opponent by the time they go out, or by rolling two routs in a row, which is just a pair of double sixes. You go out by rolling double ones two times in a row, appropriately named a dull, or running out of rolls. You run out of rolls when the number on your counter would reach zero." He held up one of he counters to show that it actually had 10 faces, each face containing a number from 1 - 10. "You lose a roll by rolling higher than your last roll. if you get doubles two times in a row you get a free roll, the only exceptions are once more the double sixes, which win the game, and the double ones, which lose the game. After each roll loss you pass the dice and turn your counter down. So.." He held out his hand with the dice resting on his open palm "Still want to play?"

As the small group entered the port the wall guards would light a series of small signals, signaling the Oceanus to return to port. As the waited Lara stood with the servants, talking to them if they wished. Further down the port the wolf sat, watching and listening.
Congratz on the promotion
Lara would smile and stand to lead the servants, gathering her great-sword as they passed the shrine. As they group exited, it was the normal fare of Lara walking alongside the servants as the walked down the road towards the docks. Only this time the group wasn't alone. In a dark, deserted alley a figure sat motionless, its coloration making it seem to melt into the background. Even the alert Lara missed it, a very rare occurrence. After the small group passed the figure detached itself from the shadows and silently made its way forward into the moonlight. The pale beams revealed it to be a medium sized wolf, with a matte grey coat and icy blue eyes, that watched with an intelligence that betrayed its wolfish appearance. Silently following the group, the wolf stuck mainly to the shadows to avoid detection.

Within the house Sarin smiled "Ah, he did not. I found it quite intriguing." Around them the house's servants would begin to clean up the dishes, the Wardens helping when they would not get in the way. A few of them began to pull heavy quilted blankets and a lighter blanket from their gear bags, setting the heavier blanket down on the floor at points around the garden. Somewhere in the the house a bell rang once more, signifying the end of dinner. At this bell the mood of the Lacrian's changed noticeably, they begain to speak in softer tones, a few games that involved bone dice began, though they remained quiet. Sarin turned to the two sitting next to him "Lord Imast, would you like to play a round, its a simple game really. The same offer goes to you Lady Anita, though if any of you would prefer the library is open to you, or you can turn in for the night."

Savin shrugged "I have not seen the vale used in such a way as the whirlwinds, however it is not outside the realm of possibility. To answer your second question the Vale, at least where I am from, can be assessed by everyone with sufficient power. Learning to use it correctly and being chosen as a Planeswalker is a different matter altogether."

As the entered into the castle, Savin quieted and began to observe and remember. He continued to do this even when they were brought in front of the king. Unlike most of the others Savin barely bowed, enough to show respect to the king but also enough to keep his eyes watching him, unseen from beneath his hood. Gripping his weapon he waited till the others were done before stepping forward "This is my best chance at at least learning more, if not going home" he thought to himself before he spoke "I am Planeswalker Savin Theios from the world of Nevisin. I was brought to this place from our world after resolving a conflict within it. I am well versed in war and in various studies, I am also certain you will find my abilities to be a boon to you.""
