–Soft daylight pours over the town of Eastfair.
-Within Ft. Carsley, the party is stationed, finally having able to acquire rest from the events of their travel
Elric-
” The hallways here are more rudimentary than at the royal palace, but that’s nothing surprising”
” The room we were all to meet in should be around this next corner…”
Oswald- “Hey!! how’dja sleep!?”
Elric- ” Not that bad actually. What about you guys?”
Dian- ” Same here.”
Owen- ” A bit sore, but it will mend in another day’s time.”
Oswald- ” I haven’t seen Sarra yet, let’s go wake her up”
Owen-
” She will need to be left alone for now. She’s still recovering from the bandit encounter”
” That is actually what needs to be discussed, since details regarding the royal family are kept on a need-to-know basis.”
Dian-
” You must be referring to that summoning she performed.”
Owen-
“Correct.”
“Members of the royal family all possess a connection to an ancient system of magic involving celestials.”
“The archaic term for it would be Mekkubal.”
Dian- ” Mekkubal…”
Owen-
” What you saw the other day was the manifestation of an angel of legend.”
“While powerful, it tends to put a certain degree of strain on the summoner’s body.”
Elric- ” Do what degree exactly?”
Owen-
” It depends on the user.”
“For Sarra, it is currently a heavy burden upon her constitution.”
-The door opens once more
Owen-
“Lady Koudelka.”
Koudelka-
” Sir Owen, there is a disturbance at the gate.”
“A man is causing an uproar, wishing to see you.”
Koudelka-
” We were going to dispose of him, but, seeing as you are our guests, I leave the decision to you.”
Dian-
” Wishing to see Owen specifically?”
Owen-
” I have a feeling that I know who this man is.”
“I will go meet him.”
“Oswald, come along with me.”
Oswald- ” ALRIGHT!!!!”
Dian-
” Why is he getting excited…?”
“He’s the kind of soldier to get amped up for a mission before even knowing the details.”
Owen-
” Elric, you and Dian should go check on our lady.”
Koudelka-
” I believe the marquise was to pay her a visit within her quarters around this time too.”
Oswald- ” The who?”
Owen- “The noblewoman in charge of Eastfair.”
Oswald- ” Oh yeah, we only saw her for like a second when we got here.”
Koudelka-
“I apologize for her short manner.” “She is beset by new responsibilities put upon her from recent events”
Owen- ” No apologies are needed. The constant wars have been unkind to every social rung.”
” We shouldn’t keep our visitor waiting any longer, come Oswald.”
