He did not get any other visions from the dream that he had received. It was simply him once again as a street performer. Nothing new in all honesty, just him playing three pieces. The first one was dedicated to Iza, The Gift. The Gift was a piece played and made by a composer who had a baby boy, and that child meant everything to that father. To prove it, the piece was made in dedication to his pride being born. It was a nice and gentle piece, where all of the strings had the melody at some point. It was a sweet piece, slow, and it took its time. Though the insane tanuki never really took slow things to heart, he still liked to play the piece in honor of her. After all, it was a symbol that she was his gift, regardless of the amount of trouble that she may put him through, and trust him, there were many times in which she had troubled him. After the gift had been played, he decided to give the audience a little history lesson with the second song called "The Elizabethan Legend", where there was a sweet slow blend of Elizabethan music being played. Some of the people started to call him Elyxabeth, and he did not really mind, just as long as they were enjoying the music, they were allowed to give him a nickname. There was not as much of a story behind the piece, though it did provide a lot of challenge to anyone who tried to learn it. If Elyx were forced to be honesty, it was one of the shortest pieces he had to play. It was also one of the most brutal pieces that he had to play. And the final song for the crowd would wake them up from the sleep that he probably had put them in. It was kind of hard since it required him to play both the first and second violin parts of the song, which required a lot of string crossing and many times, a lot of pressure onto the bow. Mantras had a change in tempo and musicality as time went by, a legend being told in the first forty measures before it was slowed down and became a waking part of the song. Like a legend being born, a hero in a way. Finally, with a triumphant cry, the strings would exclaim their strength as all of the arm weight was placed into the bow. The journey continued as he played before the song came to a suddenly slow part, before the final note was played. The crowd loved it, the performer loved it, they were all having fun, now if only this moment could last forever. How sweet it would be.
And thus, a normal dream before the young mage would wake up in reality. The feelings he had were now normal, and in all honesty, it felt amazing to be back. In almost mint perfect condition. And so he would awaken, his body restored from the nap. Taking a moment to sense everything around the house using his senses, he would not feel another source of magic coming. It was not because he was unsure of his home security, it was just a precaution that needed to be taken before he can exit his house. No one was supposed to know, and when someone other than him found out about it, he was going to destroy this house and build a new one somewhere else. Probably underground since the world seems to have taken a lot of the land to exist, and there were not too many other areas where he would have his own land. At least, not alone. Sure, he could claim land any day, he had the jewels to do it. But it was pointless to just simply act like he was alone when people knew of the location. Sadly, this project would require Virgo, a lot of her as well. She was going to have to be constantly summoned so that they have a giant space in the ground, have the earth be put back together so that they would not be found out, and eventually, they would have to make a secret entrance that only they knew. Maybe it could be activated by music, but then the maiden would be unable to enter. A shame. But it was still fair to at least let her in. Though she does not seem able to summon herself out onto the battlefield and into the outside world, he'd still like for her to have some access, to have her act like a normal human would. It would be like having her titled Very Important Person. And though she does not think of herself so highly, he was still going to command her to accept it, because then she would have no choice.
Walking out of the house, he would be greeted by the nice afternoon air, almost evening as the sun was already drifting away. Seems like he damaged his sleep schedule, not that he would blame it on himself though. He'll gladly blame it on the dream that Arianna gave to him. What did she want him to see with that message? Well, maybe it was something to do with Shadelle, and though he did not see how they were able to relate, he was only Elyx Reiaki. He was a human, an extraordinary one at that, but a human regardless. So it was expected that he did not know everything. On the plus side, he did have the advantage of being able to access the Black Rose library, and they had done tons of research on the land of Fiore and their history with other nations. Maybe they knew Shadelle. Or if not, at least Endelle so he could learn about Alcore. And even if that were not available, maybe Klaydelle, because it was a fun tribe to learn about. Time to head home.
