Actually I think his information is getting mixed up with the gaurdian legend because we KNOW dragons can rebuild their bodies. It just takes their hosts mastering their own magic.

>>501672
Hahaha we could actually be uh, that old dragon who died first! Whatsername.

That doesn't mean we're a dragon. The Dragonslayer's also tied to a bloodline.

I don't think debate'll do anything. The guy's committed enough to kill his own parents. Hell, his plan implies committing suicide to permanent-kill Myli once he's done with the others.

Not only that, but he has a reason to kill Saisai. Better escape. This guy is far more experienced than you. Ideally take him down with a good team.

>>501662
How good an actor are you?

Start laughing.
"Oh, man, you're really that clueless?
Ok, history lesson time.
We were made as toys and sycophants, not pawns; the proxy wars came later. Much later. And they were fought to prove whose toys were the best. They only learned of the power split between them when Oraes died.
Sharaes and Oraes actually cared about their children and refused to participate.
This blade? The dragon slayer? Sharaes made it to scare the other dragons into treating their own children with respect. That stopped the wars.
Eventually Masil, Myli, and Ombra realized what they had done and started nurturing their people to make up for it, and we forgave them.
Thasti... Less so. He became more a gruff father figure, but his people loved him.

Aeryr never learned, though. So fuck him.

But you? What's your game? Avenging people who neither needed nor wanted it?
Did you never think that this sword was given to the very people who had the most reason to hate, yet still went unused?

No, you have an ulterior motive. You think you've found a way to take their power for your own, haven't you."

Fuck this, I gotta run.
He's insane.

Saisai turns around flees. She hears Regulus laughing even as the room collapses around him. She mentally calls out Maggie and begins to run through the castle. Pieces off the castle are falling down all around her and a few times a large chunk barely misses her.
People are rushing pass her and shoving as they try and flee the crumbling castle.
She sees her captain holding up chunks as they fall and protecting people who otherwise would have been crushed.

"Captain!"

>"Saisai! Go! Grab Artemis and A1 and get out of here!

"Captain, I-"

>"Run you idiot! The whole place is coming down!"

Saisai hesitates for a moment longer but follows her captain's orders. A1 is the closest so she runs to her room.

Oh fuck, she is killing herself.

Alright. No time to worry about our captain. First A1! I hope she is still there.

The door is unlocked.
Saisai runs inside but freezes...
A1 is lying still under large pieces of rubble.

break shit. if.. we are right then she's fine. if you can't break the rubble then cut her legs off.

no... oh no...

Can you lift that at all? We need to get her to a healer.

OH! We should still have healing potions I blieve. We never used them. They won't do much but it should ensure she lives.

Don't worry about Captain. The bleeding thing is normal. She knows better than to overextend herself.

As for this, call ARTEMIS. We need a gravity spell to lift off that huge rock, then we can give her healing potions to stabilize.

But you know, try anyway. If she HAS lost her legs, I don't think she will blink an eye at having them replaced with artificial parts.

Oh shit oh shit oh shit oh shit!!!

Oh no, not Crazy!

Saisai begins pushing huge chunks of debris off of A1. When she pulls one particular slab off A1's top half simply falls over. One of the rocks pinched her body in half. There's blood pouring out of her.
Saisai's heart stops as she sees her friend lay there broken.

>".... Beep."

"What..."

A1 opens her eyes

>"Saisai? What's going on..? Why is everything shaking..?"

"I... I..."

SAISAI! NO TIME TO PANIC.

Pick up her torso and let us go. SO she is a robot... good for her. Lets go get our other friend.

we'll have to explain later. put her on your shoulder and leg it to art's room.

Apply liberal doses of healing potions. Also tell her to heal herself, she's a frickin' healer.

>>502124
NO TIME

>>502128
No time? Why, because the castle's collapsing? You're suggesting we go back to art's room, which is ALSO IN THE CASTLE.

Also do my eyes fool me or are there wires sticking out the bottom of her torso? Looks like she is a robot after all, and healing potions might not do anything. In which case, we'd need to bring her to Cid. Also probably recover the other half of her body. And her arm.

>>502130
i suggest we go to art so we can help his ass if he is n trouble too.

and then if yuyu can manage it stuff them both in there and carry him out. can't be bound to a room if the room no longer exists.

>>502121
You have your mimic bag, right? Stuff the rest of her body in there, then stuff a healing potion in her mouth and carry her with you
Then go to Art's room to grab him.
Then to YOUR room to grab your mimic buddy - your room has an outside wall, right?

May I ask why noone is thinking of rewinding time?
I mean we could try contacting Eluria somehow and have her help us fix this situation.

>>502108
Hey Mags? I know you can't hear us, but please get out of there before your strength fails and you get killed to death. Save who you can, and then leave.

>A1
Well. If she's fully human (physically) I think she's dead. Even if we pushed the two pieces back together and doused her with healing potions, she'd bleed out or go into shock before we could repair the damage. ...and healing potions really aren't good enough for that kind of damage.

Are those wires sticking out of her? That and her unusual calmness suggests she may actually be artificial. In which case she may live until we can get her repaired or something. So you could carry her off or stuff her in the mimic bag- oh shit. The mimic.

If she's fully human though... we've got mere moments until she's dead. Which I think only leaves us with one option. Ombra, you think you could do that forbidden soul gem magic she was going to pay the dark elf to do? If she has the gem and supplies already here? She's already dying- nothing to lose anymore.

Do you still have that gravity wand from earlier? Might be your best defense if something falls to crush you. Or to make A1 light enough to carry easily, if she's a secret robot and doesn't die right in front of us.

>Other people we need to find and help
Art, obviously. He's your friend. Plus, between his magic and you're agility, you can help each other get out of here alive.

Yuyu. Obviously there's no time to break his contract that way (even if you wanted to)- but will he still be bound to stay in a room if the room has been destroyed? I'm willing to bet the castle falling apart is a loophole.

And after we get clear of the castle... your half sister. Regulus wants all the dragons dead- that means he needs to kill their hosts. That means he'll be coming for her. You too, although I'm not sure if he knows you have Ombra yet (he definitely knows she has Aeryr, though).

>dragon slayer
Hey... the patterns move. I wonder, can the shape change too? After all, you're not trained to use a sword...

[Attempt to reshape the dragonslayer from buster-sword to spear or dragonlance]

>>502145
Because she's barely strong enough to do warp, let a lone rewind time. And even we got back, we'd still have to kill or stop Regulus, who's an earth chosen strong enough to kill an entire cities.

>>502121
>tubes/wires coming out of her body
...Holy shit, she is a construct.

We must get her out. She might actually live.

Grab her arm, sling her over your shoulder, and get running. You can try to stuff her into the mimic bag as you go, as long as you keep moving.

She... She -is- a robot!
There's like wires and stuff coming out of her!

>"Saisai..? What's going on..?"

Another quake shakes the room. She hears the stones above her groan.

Oh god. I can't lift the slab covering her legs... I hope she's fine like this!

Saisai picks up A1 and carries her as she runs to her room

>"Saisai what's going on? I can't feel my legs."

"The castle is falling apart!"

>"... Oh..."

Saisai reaches her room. The place is falling apart but Yuyu's chest isn't damaged. Saisai throws the lid open

>"Yo, Saisai! What the hell is going on!? Our contract broke a-WHY ARE YOU SHOVING A DEAD GIRL INSIDE MY CHEST!?"

"Shut it Yuyu! She's not dead!"

>"Who is this Saisai..?"

"My friend. Now make sure she's comfortable in there, Yuyu! We need to leave the castle!"

>"Hey but-!"

She shuts the lid.
The rest is a blur as Saisai continues running through the castle trying to get out. She tries to reach Artemis but the constant stream of people and the collapsing corridors prevent her from getting too close.

Saisai is pushed and shoved. Instead of trying to fight the endless swarm of fleeing people she just lets them carry her away and out of the castle.
She's not too far from it when, with one final quake, the entire thing collapses.
The Central Castle is completely and utterly destroyed.

I never thought I'd see the day...

>>502224
me either
Alright Saisai, time to try and locate the captain and Artemis.

>>502224
Get your butt to Cid so he can repair A1!

You still have the dragonslayer right?

Aw. Disappointed my dragonslayer to spear idea didn't work. Artifact it may be, but of the wrong weapon type doesn't help.

>situation
Okay. We got... two people out. That's something. Don't know if Mags got out, or where Art is.

First priority: gotta do something about A1. Don't know if robots bleed to death or what, but she needs some kind of treatment. Get her to Cid, and get him working on her. Then we need to drop Yuyu off somewhere. Either leave him with A1 and Cid, or leave him with Morgan.

Then, try and hook up with Art and/or Maggy again. They make it out?

Then you need to find your half-sister. Regulus knows she's got Aeryr. That means he's going to want to kill her. And probably her daughter, just to make sure.

>>502225
STEP ONE: LOCATE CAPTAIN

STEP TWO: OBTAIN ORDERS

STEP THREE: COMPLETE ORDERS

search and ask around. find other captains and stuff. explain what happened. and since he's dead technically i think the king being myli is fine to blab. :V

>>502230
Definately find and tell the knights that Regulas has killed the king... but instead tell them he ranted how at last the final dragon was dead. He has gone mad. Though if the King WAS Myli it would explain the earthquake.

>>502229
>>502230
The king is dead. The knight captain killed him. I'm not sure there is a government or kingdom even, at the moment. Or that there still are knights, anymore.

Depending on who SaiSai swore her oaths as a knight to (the king? The Kingdom? The organization?) you could make a pretty good case they're void now.

In any event, we need to act on what we know- not wait for other people to make decisions. Let the surviving command structure deal with the human disaster, here. Plenty of that to go around.

Ok, order of events:

1: Go find Maggy and Art.
2: Tell Maggy Regulus murdered the king with the Dragon Slayer, then said Myli was dead and started the earthquake.
3: Tell Maggy that your half-sister is host to Aeryr's soul, so she and her daughter are in serious danger. You need to know where she is so you can get her to safety.
4: Show Yuyu and A1 to Art and Maggy, and tell them you need to get her to Cid for repairs. If they take issue with Yuyu then point out he's been working for the knights for years and you couldn't have gotten A1 out of there without him.
5: Get A1 and Yuyu to Cid.

There is a slight problem with seeing Cid. His workshop was -inside- the castle. And right now it's...
Damn...
The whole place is gone...

Saisai feels as if someone is calling out to her. With the chest in hand she follows the call until she sees Artemis and Captain Maggie.

"Captain! Artemis!"

Artemis gives a weak wave. Maggie is without her mask but other than that she seems fine.

>Maggie: "Saisai. I'm so glad you made it out alive. Where's A1?"

"She's alive. And... Yeah, she's fine."

>"Good... Good. I don't know what I would have done if I found out any of you had died. Saisai, I remember you called out to me a while ago. Do you know what happened?"

Saisai thinks for a moment then reveals everything she knows about the King, about the Dragons, and about Regulus. The only things she doesn't mention is the current location of a few of the dragons.

>"So the King is dead and the Captain General ran away..." She shakes her head.

"Captain, what do we do?"

Maggie gives Saisai a sad look and shrugs.

>"Honestly? You guys don't have to do anything. With the King, the Captain General, and the entire damn castle gone we're done. We swore to defend the King as his Royal Knights but there's no King to defend. And the only man that could have become King is gone. You two aren't really Knights anymore."

>"Captain..."

>"It's just Maggie now. Me and the Other Lieutenant Generals need to gather up and talk about what the hell to do. We might end up just getting one of the Von Central's to become king again. Those guys are tough to track down though. In the meantime... Just go home. You're all dismissed. Go hug your families and be thankful you survived and junk."

>"... Okay. Saisai, I'll see you later. You too Cap... Maggie."

Artemis waves goodbye and heads off with the rest of the people leaving the ruined castle.

>"Go on Saisai. I need to check the area for survivors. Benefit of being able to read minds I guess."

"Ah but..."

I don't want to go home.

>"... If you want you can crash at my place for a while. It's not much but it's got rooms to sleep in. Do you know that potion shop? I live one door down. I'll be busy for the next... Probably well into the night but you can just help yourself in."

"Thanks."

>"Bye."

"Bye."

Maggie walks to the rubble and looks around, trying to find signs of anyone left.

...
Okay.
So... What do I do about the people in this box?
Cid's workshop is destroyed and I don't even know if he's alive... And I have a mimic here too.
And my half sister is in trouble too.

Today hasn't been a good day, huh?

well once we settle in somewhere we should ask A1 if she ever got seriously injured before and how it got dealt with. maybe she can just cast heal on herself a million times.

Find a hill and become king. Get the captain to collect any lost knights in the area. How does the line of succession work for the king? Should we assume the government is lost and find a charismatic dictator?

>>502234
Cid's workshop was in the castle? Then we need to find someone else who can do work with robots. Ask Morgan and her father. Morgan knows this city pretty well and is currently the only friend we even have the location of. Her father would give us all sorts of information for the right price.

We gotta drop Yuyu and A1 off somewhere. Either at Maggy's or Morgans, I suppose.

Then we need to determine if A1 is stable or not. If she needs help and we don't know where Cid is, maybe Morgan's father could locate someone or something who could help her? Finding things is kind of what he's for.

At least you can offer her some reassurance. Looks like she really was a robot all along, huh? She already was what she wanted to be- just disguised.

Take to Yuyu. We moved him without breaking the contract. He gonna be okay? The castle falling down is a loophole, right?

Then, once your friends are secure, we have to find your half sister.

>>502234
"Before I go, can you tell where Cid is? A1 needs his help."

You can leave Yuyu with Cid or Maggy. No worries there.

"Maggie!"

Saisai yells out to her former captain. She turns and Saisai hears her talking to her mind.

What?

Oh wow... That's weird... Do you know if Cid made it out?

The mechanic? He's not really part of the Knights. Unless I'm mistaken he's in the School when he's not working. You can check there. If he's not there then... Well, I'll keep an eye out for him.

Thanks.

Let's hope he's there...

Saisai goes to the School. All around people are crowding the streets and looking at the ruined castle. It makes the trip take a bit longer but eventually she's there. The place is mostly empty but the few that are there help point her to where Cid's workshop in the school is. Saisai steps inside and sees the man himself, working on something. He turns to look at Saisai.

>"Oh hey, it's you again. What's your name?"

"Saisai."

>"Saisai. You're the Knight, right? I'm uh... Really sorry about what happened to the castle. And the King."

I wouldn't be able to tell. The man seems to be acting like nothing happened.

"Yeah. Cid... Do you remember A1?"

>"Of course I- Oh! Did she make it out of the castle!? Is she okay!?" Now he seems very concerned. "I need to find her... Please tell me she's okay!"

He grabs a coat hanging nearby and is about to leave when Saisai grabs him by the sleeve.

"She's... Well she's not fine. But she's alive. I have her."

>"You have her?" He looks at the box. "Is she in there?"

"Yes and... She was cut in half... And she's still alive... And there's wires and junk coming out of her..."

>"......... So.... You know?"

Saisai nods.

>"-Sigh-... I suppose I have some explaining to do?"

"Yes, yes you do."

>"Alright... Set her on the table."

He pulls out a toolbox as Saisai takes A1's body out of the chest. Her eyes are closed now but the steady rhythm of her chest suggests she's still alive. For a moment Saisai wonders why she even needs to breathe.

>"Impressive, huh?"

"..."

Cid rips A1's blouse a bit and ties it behind her. He presses different sections of her torso until part of it pops off. Inside is a mess of flesh colored tubes and wires all connected to a single, massive, gem.

>"My father built her." He pulls out some arcane tools and begins to tap various parts. "Used a gem he said came from across the sea. He wasn't sure what kind of power it was but he knew two things. One, it was almost limitless and two, it was sentient. Or rather, could be sentient. He used it to create a model before Zerlina. However the thing eventually went mad. He won't say why but I think it just didn't like the fact that it was a golem. He destroyed the prototype and went to work creating this one. I didn't see him much during that time and one day he just vanished. He left behind his notes and instructions on how to activate Zerlina. He said 'Don't let her know she's a Golem'. So... I didn't." He pulls out and replaces a few wires. "She didn't even know. Hell, the way she was programmed she would -never- notice. She doesn't have any bodily functions like we do but she can emulate a few of the more basic ones like breathing, sweating, crying, blushing. Stuff like that. Other more complicated ones simply don't happen to her. And the way my father made her she doesn't even notice that she's not like anyone else. But... It seems there was some kind of glitch. Her 'sister' was a golem that wanted nothing more than to be human while she was built to be human and wanted nothing more than to be a golem. I tried to follow my father's wishes but..." He pulls out another small chunk of her and attaches more tubes. He lifts her onto some kind of machine. "I didn't expect her to be this badly damaged... Well, let's pray she turns back on."

With the flip of a switch the machine she's on powers up. Magical energy is pumped from a generator nearby and into A1's ruined body. She opens her eyes and looks around

>"Saisai..? Cid..? What... What happened to me..? Am I dying..?"

>"No A1.. You're not dying. You're actually very hard to kill."

>"But... Where are my legs... And my arm." She seems to be in some kind of shock.

>"The castle collapsed and you lost them. I can build you new ones."

>"Build..?"

>"Yes... A1... You're a robot."

She's taken that pretty well.

"So you can rebuild her?"

>"Yeah. While I've never been able to replicate her entirely due to not having the same core simply building replacement limbs is nothing."

A1 is sobbing now but she seems really happy.

>"A1... I'm so sorry for keeping this a secret from you. I had to."

>"It's -hic- it's fine. Really! I just.. I knew I was one! I knew it..." She nods.

>"Saisai, I need to talk with her, in private."

"Right."

>"And thanks for saving her... Really."

Saisai nods and heads outside. She hears more crying coming from within.

...
I have to apologize to A1 later.
I guess I should go check onto my half-sister then?

i wonder if cid could build us a body... i mean, we think, but without a power-source we black out.

anyway, yeah go check on her. and make her understand that things got a lot more dangerous. he could go after her kid to set a trap.

>>502285
Definitely.

So I guess it's off to the Shadow?

Well dang. Apparently the quickest way to help A1 would have been to attack her. At least something good came out of this mess...

>I have to apologize to A1 later.
Hey, it's not your fault. Hell, we believed her, but even we thought she was still flesh and blood! Even she did!

>I should go check onto my half-sister then?
Probably. What are we doing with Yuyu, first? I assume you don't want to keep lugging that chest all around town. You should probably drop him off at Morgan's or Maggies. And double check that he's okay- we kind of only got him out of there due to a loophole in his contract (can't keep him in a room if it's been destroyed).

To Eluria then.
But first...

Saisai takes Yuyu's chest and makes her way to Maggie's house. She knocks first and when no one replies she simply opens the door and walks inside.

Huh...
It's more normal than I thought. A bit messy but average.

She places the chest in the corner of the room. Yuyu pops out.

>"Where are we?"

"My Captain's place. We'll be staying here for a bit."

>"Ey, what happened to the castle?"

"... Destroyed."

>"Damn. That's whack, yo. I guess I'll just chill here for now. Thanks for savin me Saisai."

Saisai just nods and leaves him in the house.

The Shadow is not to far off. It doesn't take Saisai long to find Eluria though. Or rather, it doesn't take too long for Eluria to pop up in front of her

>"Sis."

"Eluria."

>"The Shadow's in a buzz. Heard the Knights are done for."

"Pretty much."

>"They're the only thing that really kept this place in check. Yami is gonna have a field day with that."

"Hmph. I came here to warn you."

>"About?"

"Regulus. He killed the King because he was the Earth Dragon and the two of us are most likely next on his list."

A green light forms from Eluria. Saisai and her seem to be the only ones to notice it.

>"It is true. I felt Myli's death. There is only two of us left with a body. Masil and Sharaes."

What? Why can't I do that!?

The light fades

>"... Thanks for the heads up. I guess I'll take my daughter and move someplace else. What're you gonna do?"

"I don't know yet. Part of me wants to go see the Dark Elves to try and revive Ombra but I'm not sure if I will. I don't know anyone there and I'm not sure how easy it would be to even find a place there or work."

>"Become a barmaid. Always good money in that."

"Not happening."

>"Well... Good luck then. See ya."

She walks away.

...
What -do- I do now..?
I worked so hard to become a Knight and I barely was in that for a month. I can't just live with Maggie forever.

>>502364
Pshaw, you have skill with a weapon, and you're a trained Knight.

Marketable skills anywhere.

the knights were mostly an organization that regimented the missions so as to minimize the risk by ensuring the teams that did them were balanced. as long as art and A1 stay willing to hang out you can keep doing them.

would say if you can to ask maggie about interviewing some catfolk alchemists that are good at earth magic to upgrade the ruins from a pile of rocks to something resembling a defensive structure.

King and order of knights suddenly disbanded, General to blame? Time to take over the kingdom as the only close-to-legitiment power left in the human kingdom!
First order of business, obtain allies in the Tigerfolk, Elf, and whatever other kingdom there is to hunt down Regulus.

Well. Nice that the mimic contract wasn't a big deal. He wasn't even phased. One awkward problem out of the way.

>What? Why can't I do that!?
Which do you mean, sense the others, or project yourself like that?

Assuming you meant the projection- possibly because you never tried? It might just take practice. Or perhaps Aeryr gets it easier because she's part light elf- one of his own? Or maybe it's because he's doing something with Air- his own element. So while you can't, maybe there are shadow or soul things you can do even trapped as you are you've been overlooking?

>I'm not sure how easy it would be to even find a place there or work.
Being the avatar of a peoples' living god does tend to open doors, usually.

Still, we can't run out of town just yet. We have to see how A1 comes out, and you'd want to see Art and Morgan too.

>What -do- I do now..?
>I worked so hard to become a Knight and I barely was in that for a month. I can't just live with Maggie forever.
Well... you might not be a knight anymore without a king to serve. But you still have a mission, sort of. You were sworn to follow a king who has been killed. That sort of leaves you a responsibility to avenge him, and see his killer brought to justice. And you're also the hereditary wielder of the dragon slayer- meaning what Regulus is trying to do to them is your responsibility. Not to mention the fact Regulus is threatening the entire world.

So you've lost a king- but you have a mission. Makes you a knight errant by default, I think.

...course that's a bit longer term. You're not exactly ready to take on someone who levels castles by himself. Yet.

>Short term
...maybe you should try out the dragon slayer? You don't have any practice with that kind of weapon, but you may well need it in the future. I don't suppose you can do anything awesome like bend it's shape to your will and have it reform as a spear? ...or that magic gives you skill with it even without practice?

>>502364
Well, we could try contacting Masil. Though the fact that Regulus gave you the dragonslayer most likely means that Masil no longer has a body, at the least.

Next on the agenda in my mind is hanging out with Artemis a bit more. Tell him about how you need to visit the Dark Elves but don't know anyone there. Plus you really need that mana upgrade. I don't know why that last mission didn't net you it.

>>502364
Don't worry about food or a place to stay. Summon Ombra in front of them and they'll take you in.

(Wait a second doesn't Regulus have the Goldeon watch?)
If we go to the dark elves we could try contacting Ombra's chosen.

>>502416
Probably. We don't know for sure, but if he possess that artifact, it would certainly explain how he got out of the castle.

>>502417
But if he does have it then it would be impossible to hide from him.

Oh. Also- I understand your reasons for not wanting to go home. You might want to still find a way to let your family know you're all right, though. I mean, if they hear about the castle collapse and don't hear anything from you... not good. Your father may be a jerk, but your mom and little sister shouldn't be worrying if you're dead.

>>502370
He's with his family right now though. I'll bug him as soon as he returns though.

>>502365
>>502366
Yeah... Both of those are really good points. I... I don't know. I mean I wasn't really -too- attached to the knights. I mostly just used it as a means to get away from home. Besides the obvious reasons of being upset over the destruction of the castle I'm pretty OK with all this.
Is that weird? I -feel- like I should be pissed off or something. But I'm just kinda... Bleh.

>>502744
Screw them. The only one I care about is my little sis. After the dramatic exit I made before I don't want to see them again. Partly because it was a pretty cool exit and also because... I think if they told me to live at home now I might actually listen.

>>502369
>Taking out Regulus

That... That might have to wait til I'm a bit stronger. I mean... I guess that's my job now right? I have the Dragonslayer and all that. Also... I liked the King. Even if he was a Dragon he still allowed me into the Knights. And as far as I can tell he didn't even tell Regulus that I'm Sable's daughter.
He also hurt A1, Artemis, and could've killed Maggie.
Yeah, you and I are gonna work together to kill that man. You too Ombra.

The affairs of you humans isn't any of my concern. And I never liked Myli anyway. Aeryr either. Any of them, really. However... I am rather fond of your teammates and the Guardian. I'll assist where I can.

>Dragonslayer
Oh yeah. This big old sword is so unwieldy. Let's see if I can...

With a simple thought the Dragonslayer shifts into something far more comfortable for Saisai. The metal tip retains the Slayer's ever shifting stripes while the grip is made out of some unknown wood.

Oh wow! That's perfect! I mean, it's not as cool as -my- spear but this is a lot easier to handle than some giant sword!

>>503407
We will need help to kill Regulus. We must gather forces before we intend to face him.

well, when you get back ask maggie about getting some catfolk and permits for them so they can ether turn the pile of rocks into something that looks defensible or level the area.

Reusing a perfectly good post wasted on an april fools thread.

What, a man out to murder all the dragons- with a shot at actually succeeding- doesn't count as part of the affairs of dragons?

Still, glad to have you on board.

>I mean, it's not as cool as -my- spear but this is a lot easier to handle than some giant buster sword!
Yeah, it probably lacks the sneaky fireable spearhead and any other tricks you built into yours, but it will be good against dragons and possibly other magic stuff. And as an artifact, it's probably much harder to break, if at all.

Not to slander your craftsmanship or imply your spear is easily breakable or anything. Some things cheat.

>>503407
Well now you can use it. I'm not sure we'd ever want to, unless it's like, sharper? More durable? It's not like we're gonna be killing any dragons.

...oh god, horrible thought. Regulus might go after your little sister, if he finds out you're Ombra's host. He has to wipe out everyone in the same family line to prevent dragons from switching bodies, right? Unless that can only be done if the dragon runs off in fairy form...? In that case, just staying away from your sister should keep her safe.

Hrm. You know, killing Regulus would kill Myli as things are right now. We'd either have to somehow get Myli to take over his body completely, or force Regulus to have a kid which Myli could then transfer to and resurrect in the less harmful fashion. Which would take years. Alternatively we could do research on his family line to see if maybe he has a lost relative which Myli could transfer into.

Hey, how does that switching bodies thing work? Do you have to be in close proximity while in fairy form?

>>503412
Saisai's family isn't in danger, because they're not descended from Sable. They're not eligible to host Ombra. And Regulus doesn't know she's in Saisai, either.

>Myli
Either we kill him with Regulus and we let Masil res him later, or we render Regulus brain-dead and wait for Masil to become strong enough to fully possess his comatose host-body (the thing we talked Ombra into not doing to Saisai).

Or we could eliminate his chosen powers which would force him to master magic.

>Yeah, it probably lacks the sneaky fireable spearhead and any other tricks you built into yours
We might be able to use the shape-changing part in a shorter ranged version of that. We should try it some time.

Forces? Like? The entire army is gone. I'm not really much of a diplomat myself... Maybe Ombra can talk to the Elves or something?

I'm not a people dragon.

>>503414
>>503412
Oh shit... That's right... With Myli possessing Regulus that makes it a bit more difficult to kill him huh? For more reasons than one.
Still we have Ombra, the Dragonslayer, you guys. And maybe if we can... We can get some of the other races to help us. And hell, Captain Maggie is still here too. I think all of us combined together is more than enough. And as long as my half-sister and I are still alive not all the Dragons are dead either.

Alright... There's nothing else I have to do right now. I guess I'll just go back to Maggie's house.

Saisai makes her way out of the Shadow and back to the little house near Morgan's shop. It's still unlocked and when she steps in she notices it's not completely empty. Sitting on top of his chest is the mimic, Yuyu. His feet are dangling freely off the side and he gives her a small nod.

>"Yo. Been meanin to talk to ya."

"Yuyu, you're out of your chest!"

>"Ye. Contract is done, I'm not a mimic anymore. Just a normal demon now."

He shrugs

>"Everything all screwed up. Castle's gone. Contract is broken. Knights are done. Past hundred or so years I've been stuck in that room, bein a mimic to all the fine lady knights. Now though I got nothin. Glad you saved me an all that but... I was just wonderin... Do you still want me to be your mimic? I know we haven't really gotten along much but it's like... I ain't got nothing left. I'm a pretty damn lousy incubus, I ain't fit to be an evil demon. Mimic's 'bout the only job a guy like me got. But if like you don't want a demon around that's cool too."

He gives an indifferent shrug but Saisai can sense he's a bit worried.

...
Well damn.
Uh..

"If we do make a contract are you going to be bound to this house?"

>"Only if you want me to be. When we make the contract you gotta set the terms, ya know? You can't like be givin me new powers but you can set restrictions to who can use me and all that shit. I can draft up a contract pretty damn easy. You just gotta sign it."

He seems so sad.
But I don't even have a place I can keep him.
And he's a demon...
Can't he just go back to hell or something..?

Remember what he said about hell? Not a nice place. He has been extremely helpful even if it was contract bound and this is your chance to return the favor if you want.

i don't think demons LIKE living in hell. is why they all want to be up here. a class for them isn't just a job, it's a way of life.

>>503813
Why don't we talk to Morgan about it? Her dad has experience with demons, pretty sure, so... Heck, maybe Morgan could be the one to house him. Or we could just straight up sell him to Morgan's dad... then again maybe he already has a mimic.

>Can't he just go back to hell or something..?
It's kind of hell, Saisai. Sending him back would be rather worse than forcing you to go home. No one wants to be there.

C'mon, Saisai. He can be a little annoying at times, but having a mimic around is handy. And he's talked you threw a bad time or too. He's a good person- he doesn't deserve to be kicked to the curb. So what if he's a demon? That's just what he is, not who he is. I'd would think you of all people would understand not wanting to be judged by blood by this point.

>New contract
I would suggest no binding to one place, as we may have to move in the future, and locking him up that way is kind of cruel. User permissions would obviously be you, and anyone you authorize to him. Maybe set up a passcode for authorization, in case you someday have to send someone to him, instead of introducing them.

>>503813
Tell him you still want him around, but need to look into the contract thing more. Maybe there are other kinds of support jobs demons can do besides as mimics? Or maybe he can get options as a mimic aside from that box? Some custom version of a mimic better suited to our situation and allowing him freedom would be nice. Maybe we could check with the library on the matter. It's not like the whole city is destroyed, but I bet it's a mess of some kind there.

Oh wait, we should first feed Yuyu some of our power. You know, the same energy we use to summon Ombra and do other things. It should boost his power level a fair amount if we give him all we have on hand. Even if we didn't want to keep him around for some reason, we owe him that much. Mimics are still good for us though, especially since the dragon weapon needs to be put away sometimes.

>>503835
>locking him up that way is kind of cruel
Of course it is. I would prefer if he could get out and walk around, actually. Maybe be able to convert his chest to a smaller form so he can carry it around if need be.

As for future planning, we should try to find our way to Sharaes or Masil before Regulus does. Masil is the one who can bring back the dragons, but we likely need Sharaes' support with that first. At the very least she'll have advice for us.

ask why he couldn't do a job as an incubus, i mean, i know you wouldn't personally want to have sex with hm, you don't sleep with people you aren't serious with, but he is cute, i am sure a girl that summons him for that reason would love it.

>>503412
Whoops, missed this. Possession doesn't really need anything special, just need to be near a suitable target. Then I just hop along. It's mostly invisible. But yeah for Saisai I need someone who's a blood relative. Her sister is actually a good target for me since she comes from Saisai's mother. I could also hop into her brothers, assuming they were all also born from the same mother. Her father wouldn't be possible though. If I do that though I'd have to work on corrupting their body from scratch. Not that I'm doing that to Saisai or anything.

>>503917
Ehhh... Incubus is like a sex demon, right? I'd rather not know about that.

I guess it would be pretty messed up to send him packing to hell.
Alright, fine. I'll keep him as a mimic.

"You can stay with me. I'll make a new contract."

>"Ha! Awesome! You are hella cool Sai!" He rummages through the chest for some paper and a red quill. "Alright, so you think of what you want on the contract?"

"Can't we do this a bit later? I want time to think of it."

>"I waited a while, hell's trying to pull me back, ya know? I'd rather get this done sooner than later, you feel me?"

"Alright, fine. Uhm... I don't want you bound to a room. I want anyone to be able to use you, with my permission. And is it possible for you to leave your chest and walk around?"

>"Nah. I'm a mimic. Part of the thing is I'm stuck in the chest. 'S cool though. I got a pretty sweet setup in there."

He quickly jots some things down on a piece of paper

>"Alright so... Not bound to a room an I can be used by anyone you give permission to. If that's all you just gotta sign right there."

Is that everything?

can you read it? i mean he may be cool, but he is still a demon. uhhh... think morgan's dad can read demon. to the i-shop!

Uh, is there anything else he can think of that might be a good idea to include? I mean, he's been a mimic way longer than you've even know what a mimic is. There might be drawbacks or restrictions in the current system he might have seen that would never occur to us, or maybe things he wished he could do but could not.

Do we have to write in the bag mimic bag thing, or is that innate?

We should probably change the contract breaking conditions to be less onerous than in the original, too. By mutual agreement, or something.

You know, one thing I could see being a problem is if we were ever forced to leave him behind somewhere. Could we work a summoning into the contract? So we could call him and his chest to us if you needed to? Useful if you ever need to leave town in a hurry. Or... if anyone tries to 'break into' your mimic while you're out (although running from a threat like that would kind of require him to be able to activate the summoning himself).

...could the chest come with weels?

>>503940
Hang on, we need a clause to end the contract. Not the same thing as last time where you gotta have sex with him to end it.

Maybe could he maybe live in something more portable, such as a backpack or other large bag?

"Hold on. Do you have to be in a chest?"

>"Uh... Nah. It's just traditional. I can go into any sort of container. Bags, barrels, vases, crates. Just needs to be a thing I can at least fit in, ya know?"

"How about a bag? Like a backpack?"

>"... I guess. Not as cool as a chest but whatev."

"Also does it -have- to be sex that ends the contract?"

>"It's like the chest thing, ya know? Just how it's normally. I can take that out too if you wanna just be able to you know orally end the contract. I mean saying in. Like 'I end the contract.' Like-'

"I get what you mean."

>"Coo'. Anythin else?"

"Is there a way you can teleport to me?"

>"Man, you really makin me work on this?" he starts scribbling more into the contract. "Aight... I can teleport but it's gonna cost you about a 1/4 of your energy. Or 25 of that necklace's energy. Whichever you can pay in."

He hands Saisai the new contract

>"This good?"

I like it.

So... do I have to sign this in blood or...?

>>503969
Yea, orally end the contract, you know what he means. ;)

As for signing in blood. Hell, even if you didn't have to, it's cool to sign in blood.

Sounds good to me.

By the way, does he know how to use any weapons? An armed mimic-backpack would be great for the next time someone tries to attack us from behind.

"Looks good to me. So do I need to sign this in blood or what..?"

>"Blood's best, yo. The quill will take what it needs from ya."

He hands her the quill. Saisai takes it and the contract. The moment she presses the pen to the paper she feels a chill crawl up her spine. Shaking away the feeling, she signs the contract.
There is a bright flash of light. Saisai blinks and sees that where Yuyu and his chest once were there is simply a bag. The top flap lifts up and Yuyu pokes his head out

>"'S done yo. Thanks a bunch Saisai, you da best"

"Yeah, not a problem Yuyu."

>"Imma start redecoratin this place now, call me if ya need me."

And with that he ducks back into his new bag.

Alright, mimic backpack. Guess there aren't many who can say they have that.

Saisai looks around Maggie's home for a bit and notices that there isn't a single chair on this entire floor. She just sits down on the ground and closes her eyes.

...

She thinks back over the past few hours. Maybe if she had just told her suspicions to the king a bit sooner...
Maybe if she had taken the death of the dragons a bit more seriously
Maybe if she hadn't be so damn apathetic towards anything that didn't directly involve herself.

She sighs.

I was a pretty bad knight.
Even if I passed a few missions I didn't do the really important things. The things that would have saved my Kingdom from a lot of the damage it's gone through.

You're so damn dramatic kid. Just suck it up and go on with life.

... I didn't even get the power I needed from Artemis. I wasted a day doing pretty much nothing.
Now he's off spending time with his family.
I'll have to wait til he's done with that to track him down.
Ombra, I think we'll just wait here for a while then go see the Dark Elves.

Sounds good to me.

I don't know where the boy lives though. Maybe I can find another way to get mana instead?
If you guys have any ideas I'm all ears.

the only other way would be to find objects able to store mana and implant them into your flesh.
at least that we know of. maybe someone else has the same kind of power as art?

We could try using mana gems, Morgan did say that you can use them for magic.

>I was a pretty bad knight.
That's really not fair. You did pretty well, all things considered. There was just the slight problem we also weren't operating with all the information we needed.

...including the fact we weren't completely sure if Myli was involved or not till it was too late.

>what you could have done differently
Trust us, you can't worry too much about that kind of thing. It just drives you nutters, and even if you could change things, it often helps less than you would think. We'd know.

>wasted day with Art
Hey, you got a criminal off the streets, and made sure a horrible soul eating monster was dealt with properly before it hurt anyone! That's something!

Not sure why you didn't get the link up, though. Maybe you were trying to hard to force it? It's kind of hard to increase friendship if all you can think about is using a person.

>Other ways to get mana?
Uh... well, getting the ability from Artemis would be the easiest. You've already got three limit breaks, so we can't force in anything that way. An external mana battery of some kind? Work out a way to tap into or borrow power from Ombra? (Your sister is doing that to get time points from Aeryr). Get your DNA rewritten so you're no longer part tigerfolk? Find a way to use GP as mana?

Mana crystals sound pretty good for the short term. But you guys are right, getting the ability from Artemis would be more helpful in the long run.

Everything wasn't a total waste.
Now I just need to get off my lazy butt and try and make things better. And with you guys I don't think that will be too hard.

Just remind me to take your advice more often.

The front door opens. Saisai turns and sees Maggie walking inside. She kicks off her shoes haphazardly and walks into the kitchen. She doesn't seem to acknowledge Saisai's presence with much more than a small nod. She opens the fridge and pulls out a long, obviously alcoholic, bottle. After pouring herself a large cup and drinking it in one long drink she finally looks at Saisai

>"Hey."

"Captain."

>"Blargh. It's not Captain anymore. Just call me Maggie." She drinks another large cupful. "Want some?"

"Ah, uhm... No thank you."

>"Alright." She empties that cup too as her psychic powers pull off her mask and hair ties, they also make quick work of her normal coat. "Well Saisai I got good news and I got bad news. Wanna hear em?"

"Sure."

>"Good news is we found a Von Central to take over the kingdom. He should be here in like a month. So Central Kingdom will have a king again. Castle's still fucked though so we're thinking of hiring some Alchemists to try and use their powers to build a new one. Bad news is..." She takes another drink. "God... I must've found only a handful of people alive. Out of the hundreds of dead bodies. Just..." She shakes her head and looks at the empty cup. "Yeah, being a psychic has it's downsides sometimes. Like being able to hear people's last thoughts. That's always a downer. I liked a lot of them too. Worst part is that that fox faced bastard got away. Don't know where but if I can't sense him that means he's not even in the kingdom anymore. I don't know how the hell I didn't see this sooner. I'm a goddamn psychic, it's my POWER to know what people are thinking! Yet this bastard slipped through."

She fills the cup and takes another long drink.

"It's okay C-Maggie. I don't think even the King knew the full extent of what that man was capable of."

>"Nope. We were all acting pretty foolish around him. It's just... The man has done so much for the Kingdom, you know? It... It took everyone by surprise."

"Yeah. So don't beat yourself up over it. Even a psychic can be fooled sometimes."

>"Guess so." She downs another cup. "Sure you don't want some?"

"... I'll take a cup."

Maggie grins and pours Saisai a significantly smaller cup. Saisai sniffs it before taking a drink. It burns as it goes down her through and has a really sharp taste.
Saisai is not sure if she likes it. Maggie just laughs as she sees the face the tiger girl makes.

>"So, Saisai. What's your plan now? You won't be able to join the knights again for at least a month. You're more than welcome to stay here as long as you like but you don't strike me as the kind of girl who likes to sit in one place for long."

"I'm not really sure what I'm going to do. Being a Knight was supposed to be my thing for a bit longer than a few weeks."

>"Yeah, sucks. You can be an Adventurer though."

"An Adventurer?"

>"Mmhmm. They go on missions. It's basically just like the knights but without some of the privileges. Get yourself a group of people and go out and make some money. I've still got work to do but you're free to do whatever you want."

"I'll look into it." Saisai takes another drink. It's easier to swallow than the last one at least.

That sounds like an option. And if I drag Artemis along I can probably get that ability from him too.

>"Oh damn, I just realized... You probably been stuck down here all day huh? Yeah only way to get upstairs is if you can move the panel. Are you tired? You can crash in my room if you want. Unless there's something else you need to do."

>I'm a goddamn psychic, it's my POWER to know what people are thinking! Yet this bastard slipped through.
I thought that your kind of mind reading required at least partial consent?

Actually, if you're skilled enough at compartmentalizing yourself and putting up barriers, that would be exactly how to fool a psychic. Only let her in as far you want to, and just show her what you want her to see- exactly the same thing you do to the rest of the world. He'd been practicing that kind of deception for years. It was probably second nature for him.

>You probably been stuck down here all day huh?
Not quiet. I had a few things I had to take care of first.

>He's already out of the kingdom
...I doubt an earth chosen can fly, and there are only so many ways to teleport. Somehow I doubt he used the dragon shrines. And he can't cast warp. Goddamnit, it's looking more likely that he has the goldeon watch.

>And if I drag Artemis along I can probably get that ability from him too.
...I think your mindset is might be what got in the way before. It's hard to make or improve a personal connection with someone when you're so focused on using him. I mean, I know that's what we're doing here, but if at least part of the reason you're spending time with him isn't real, I don't think it's going to work.

>tired
Well, that's for you to answer, not us.

yeah, despite the power being the catalyst for starting to talk to him, you need to honestly want to be his friend. probably.

>>504793
Pretty sure any "loot" belongs to the state, or the families of the dead. And that's hardly good behavior for a knight, or even an ex-knight if they're disbanded for the moment.

Do we still have any secrets from Maggie? I'd like to share them if we do, talk (or think) all about about Ombra and Yuyu too. I'm sure she'd have the best possible advice on what to do now, short of asking one of the two still living dragons ourselves. And it's not like her knowing matters anymore, anyway.

But not right now, it can wait for sobriety. Just give her a hug.

No problems with this, I assume? This is your life in jeopardy too, and she makes for a great ally.

"I'm pretty tired right now, I think I'll just go to bed."

>"Heh, alright."

Maggie finishes her cup with Saisai doing the same, though not quite as fast.
She walks over to a bit of tile underneath the hole in the ceiling. When Saisai steps on she turns to her former captain.

"You know you did the best you could, right?"

>"Meh."

"..."

She gives her a hug.

"Really. I saw you there, you saved so many people."

The psychic looks stunned for a moment before she smiles and ruffles Saisai's hair.

>"Thanks. Alright, going up!"

Using her powers she lifts the two of them up and into the next room.

...
Dear god...

>"Oh right... Yeah, I normally don't have company."

>"Well... Do you like hammocks?"

I... I've never seen a room this... Messy.

Maggie begins moving some of the junk around to try and clear a path to a comfortable looking hammock in the far side of the room. All around are bits of clothes, wrappers, and oddly colored plushes.

>"I still go work I gotta do so you have the place to yourself but I'll get a proper bed tomorrow. Also those Cuddle Buds on the hammock are pretty damn comfortable. And they vibrate too so if you have a sore back they're just awesome to lay on."

"I see..."

>"Alright, there."

The room is less cleaned and more... Moved around. Saisai walks up to the hammock.

>"Well I'm off then. I should be back before you wake up. Goodnight Saisai."

"Goodnight."

Once her captain leaves Saisai gets into her sleepwear, crawls into the hammock, and falls into a deep sleep.

I think first thing we clean this place up. If we stay here I don't think anyone could stand to live in this mess.

[Have sexy dreams about Maggie]

The things vibrate? Well that could easily lead to a compromising situation.

>Maybe I should have listened when you brought up future stuff before.
To be fair, the future stuff we knew about wasn't even completely accurate. Things haven't happened exactly the way we expect.

Like, for example- the knights have gotten different missions. Or some people we knew as knights never appeared. And some of the knights you know are completely new to us! And of the people we knew, some of them are pretty different. Ombra went from wanting to kill her host for freedom to willing to work with you/us a lot faster. Chevre was a reasonable person who respected your decision even though it hurt him- instead of a cruel asshole you had to settle with violently in the arena. And Myli... wasn't nearly as nice before. Or a victim. Even Regulus is crazier than we expected, which is saying something.

Really weirdly, who's related to who changed in a few cases! Kind of flies in the face of what we thought we knew about genetics and biology, but there you go.

So it's really not a bad thing you rejected the future stuff. You forced to work objectively with the world we're in. If you had let us play purely by future stuff before realizing things were different, we might have fucked things up worse. So... I think we'll keep from bothering you with the details, unless we think we know something that helps.

>What's this Goldeon Watch you guys keep talking about? Is that more future stuff.
Yes, it's future stuff. If you want to know, it's a magic artifact Regulus had in the future we remember. It can be used to track anything, and it can be used for teleportation. Provided he has it again this time, and the watch works the way we remember, that's not a good thing. It will make finding him much harder, and it'll help him find and get to the remaining dragons.

Hey, is the goldeon watch still a thing? Magic artifact, good for tracking and teleportation, used to be in your possession? Stop me if I'm completely off base here.
