    "The Unknown Lands have been a mysterious territory for as long as history can tell it, however, the Magic Council has taken an initiative in uncovering the secrets of these lands recently. In exchange for a generous jewel or tangible reward, you've been directly summoned to participate in an expedition in the Unknown Lands. Dangerous monsters, forgotten treasures, or maybe just a good change of scenery—no one knows what to expect. Investigate the area by collecting samples of items, clearing out dangerous monsters, or if you're here for other reasons, find something of interest."

    "Expedition... huh?"

    Sitting on a flat rock was a lanky redhead, holding a plate full of mashed potatoes and gravy to his face. He was situated on a plateau, looking over a vast, heavily wooded and rocky terrain with a stormy overcast above. It was Major General Chiyuki Suzuki of the Rune Knight Combat Corps, here on a paid expedition. Although the Council had specifically summoned for him and many of his stronger colleagues, it was completely optional to attend. He may have been an officer of the state, but he was also a standard sorcerer as well.

    Docked on the same plateau was a small Rune Knight airship, equipped with many of the Engineering Corps' latest technological advancements. He was arriving via flight with many of his other officers, eating before taking his shot at the expedition. He didn't necessarily want to come, but it was hard to ignore a summoning from his boss's boss. That, and, well... so many other officers were coming. It was even harder to ignore the summoning once he learned that.

    "This is pretty intense..."

    So it was finally happening. The unknown lands. After all these years being shrouded in mystery, people were finally interested in being serious about its exploration. Something of this scale and magnitude was certainly interesting to Mythica, and she knew she'd be a fool to pass up an opportunity like this. Despite the nature of her being, there was still many mysteries both in this world and others that the time wizard had yet to uncover. More new and interesting people to meet. This expedition was the perfect catalyst to learn more about the unknown. With this thought process in mind, Mythica made it her mission to blend in with the many wizards being sent towards these mystery lands. Nobody needed to know who she was, but she would participate nonetheless. There was even a chance that she'd stumble across a few people she knew. Maybe even Mura would participate in this trip as well! She blushed at the thought.

    Mythica stood near the edge of the desert plateau, just on the other side of the docked Rune Knight airship. It had been a while since the chaos entity had been close to the Magic Council's pets. If she recalled the last time she had interacted with them was when she and her former guild master massacred Peace Village. Those memories put a soft smile on her face. Of course there had been no witnesses so Mythica was confident they had no idea who she was. As far as they were concerned the time wizard was one of the many wizards commissioned by the council to assist in this expedition.

    "Oh I agree." Mythica stated with a chuckle. If Doppo looked to his right he'd see Mythica standing there with her hands behind her back. She seemingly would've appeared out of nowhere, as she certainly wasn't there the last time anyone checked. She was rather unremarkable in appearance, wearing only a white buttoned shirt and a black skirt with tights and boots. "But that's what makes it exciting, right?" She said with a grin, turning to Doppo. "A whole new world awaits! All we gotta do is reach out and take it."

    Mythica's smile didn't fade, no matter how Doppo responded. "I wonder what it is they hope to find... And I wonder why these lands have been a secret for so long... Almost as if their secrets were worth keeping." She chuckled, observing the lands beyond the plateau..

    "FOR MAD SCIENCE!! TIME TO GET EXCITED, YOU GUYS."




    Some time had passed once again since Faustein had been involved in that rather bacchanalian rave party. Since then, he had gone back to the usual daily routine of his profession as a practicing physician-scientist mage and of course, his ongoing mad science research. Unfortunately, as of late, due to his increasingly bolder experiments, he had started running short on the specimens he needed for it. That was exactly why he viewed the flyer that had come to him in the mail earlier in the day as a godsend as it was an exploratory expedition to the mysterious locale known as the "Unknown Lands".

    This should be intriguing, to say the least.

    He mused as he readied himself in his usual work outfit, aka his physician scientist's outfit and then headed out to charter transport to the destination mentioned, aka the "Unknown Lands". It took him a while to get there, but eventually he did arrive in one piece and then entered, walking cautiously while examining his surrounding with his smart holographic glasses called "SHG-IV" that shielded his eyes from view and from any irritants as well. He also had his spacetime chronometer known as "IIC" ready just in case anything unforeseen necessitated a quick escape. Apart from that, he had on his physician-scientist's outfit which also doubled as armor due to the magic enchantments woven into it, so he was relatively well protected from harm, at least of his mage level or below it. Lastly, he had his field investigation kit with LacrimaTek analysis machines, specimen collection equipment, storage containers and so on with him as well as he was looking forward to getting his hands on as many unfamiliar specimens as possible from this expedition.

    He noticed two people present already in the distance and the giant airship present there as well, so he figured he may as well go there and inquire about the expedition so as to glean as much data as he could about it from the man.

    "Are you perhaps both part of the expedition squad too?"

    He asked the lanky redheaded man and the girl next to him with his face impassive and in his usual rich, baritone voice, which in this case was perfectly even and neutral. Then, he fell silent and waited for the man to respond if at all.

    Hmh…

    A rather common-looking river revealed the arrival of the shaman and Guildmaster on unknown land… truly unknown to many of the inhabitants of Fiore and perhaps all of Earthland. The river was no wild one, but its flowing waves gently caressed the riversides. The surface of the water reflected the dim, greyish color of the sky above, and from that surface, a single entity slowly stuck his head up to look around. Grassy riverside, a few oak trees and a view towards the distant cliffs and taller terrain. It looked like minor canyons, but with flatter terrain on top. Perhaps a plateau of some sort…

    Anyway, there was a reason to why he was here in the first place. Forget remembering how he found his way to this undotted, unmarked territory; the Magic Council had an interest in seeing what these seemingly uninhabited lands contained. Mura had never taken time to explore these unknown lands himself, and frankly, curiosity took over him. At first, he rebuked himself for going this far just to sate a childish curiosity of his, but as he now stood here, head above the surface of the flowing water, he felt quite the bliss over the primal peace around him.

    “… *bluuurp, blurp blurp*”

    “It has the terrain and climate of Fiore… I don’t think that there’s anything special here,” the green dragon’s ghost, Zirconis, remarked. True, for now, the area was awfully silent and calm, temperate and ‘common’ given where Mura lived. However, this was untouched ground that had been left unexplored in forever, and as far as Mura was concerned, no one had dwelled into these lands before… and the Council had never paid much attention to it until recently.

    This was an explorer’s dream. Mura didn’t really see himself as a pure explorer-type of guy, but even he enjoyed the wonders of such adventure. However, after his heart calmed down from that hype, he began noticing a few things strangely standing out nearby on the riverside.

    Lifting himself up on the surface of the water, he dashed towards the riverside and finally stood on solid ground again. Yup, by stepping a few times on the sandy surface, he could feel a space of wood and steel underneath the sand bed that felt like the complexion of a chest… but that would mean that somebody had already been here. Hmh.

    With a quick rising of both hands, the shaman dug up the chest with his magic. It was just in time for Kyuken to finally catch up to him and Zirconis, exhausted despite his astral condition. “*huff* … w-what did I- … is that a treasure?”

    “Can’t tell whether if it contains treasure or just more sand…” Zirconis scoffed. Mura waited no longer and opened the chest, greeted by folded clothes. The garments were dark in color, green and red, and it looked like a couple of tunics and a handful of leggings. Were these somebody’s belongings? Who would bury their clothes so deep under the sand on a riverside?

    Dissatisfied with the finding, Mura lifted the clothes and decided to check what else was stored inside. However, as to mock him, fate decided for him to find a simple rock on the bottom of the chest. Now in his hand, he turned it around, somehow not convinced that it was any kind of granite. It emitted a magical signature, and there was writings on it. Other than that, the rest of the chest was only clothes for some random person, perhaps a ghost of the past or a lost guy who had been separated from his property. It must’ve been a ridiculously old guy, for weren’t these lands uninhabited?

    “… Oh shit, it’s vibrating,” he sighed in a mild surprise as he stood up again to search around. Exploring was the activity of today, but the moment he went to move, the rock in his hand vibrated only to sharply brake its motion. Standing there, he decided to move again, only for the rock to vibrate once more. It would take him a good, say, 10 minutes before he felt a change in the vibration that implied how the rock worked… but by then, he was already venturing into the plains behind the few woods that separated said area from the riverside…

    So, after having walked around with the rock for a while, Mura had figured out that it vibrated more intensely when he walked towards a certain direction. Maybe it was a kind of compass, leading him to an important place set by the person who left it in the chest. Kyuken and Zirconis followed closely, but at one point, Mura’s magical sensory warned him that the two lads weren’t the only ghosts in his company…

    It had been a while since Mura met another spirit. At first, its silhouette made it appear to come from the horizon as in far, far away; all of a sudden, its form expanded in size like some illusion, suddenly appearing right in front of him - and with no friendly intentions towards him. An evil spirit.

    Evil spirits often looked the same; red or black eyes, white skin, sharp teeth, demonic appendages and ill intents towards any among the living. This one ventured the plains in daylight… or maybe it was the storm approaching that pushed it out in the open. Usually, they hid in dark areas or under the shelter of night.

    Mura was no longer afraid of evil spirits. When he flung Kyuken into his katana, Harusame, he made that much clear; long ago, when he let go of such an irrational fear, he became a true Onmyōji. His spirit-infused blade was lunged at the demonic ghost whose scream indicated its intake of pain from his attack. It was effective, so why would he waste any more time? In one leap, Mura’s body span around and allowed his katana to cut down through the ghost from the middle, its grim interior vaporizing and the faint remains of its lifeforce siphoned away.



    The rock from earlier had led Mura to a wide field with large rocks raised up in strange patterns. They looked like gigantic tombstones, but… yes, once again using the underground sensory, Muar felt the wood of several houses… completely buried underground…

    I will never ask for nothing that I won't give in return
    You will never have to question the value of my words
    Amalie


    So it seemed that she was at it again. Working, that was. It never really seemed to let up for the Dies Irae Commander, Amalie West. It if wasn't paperwork investigations, or training, then it was of course, the missions themselves. And today was no exception. Hunt monsters and investigate lands; how familiar. She recalled the time when she still fought amongst the ranks of the West Fiore Trading Company and the time that she had to join a team to go defend the various teams exploring the plagued lands of Tsac Ordahic or whatever it was called. That had been a rather enjoyable venture, despite the dangers. Amalie found the culling of monsters to be something that came of quite an ease to her, and well, anything that boosted the reputation of Dies Irae was a plus.

    Amalie stepped off of the train, her slender fingers brushing down her bright red Dies Irae uniform. She knew that Johann was going to be here, although where he was right now she wasn't sure. The same went for Sivvy, who was also absent for the moment. It might have been prudent to arrange a point to meet up but it didn't matter. They were on a job after all, and what was perhaps more important, was the act of getting the work done. Allowing her magic to rise through her body, the energy she hosted would rise up through her throat and release itself in the form of a spoken command.

    "Empowerment, Resistance, Fortify, Flight" Waves of magical energy would burst forth from the blue haired woman, the first three commands working as a means to enhance her strength and defence. Seeing as she planned to get right into it, it seemed sensible to have magical reinforcements activate. Upon the last command, she would rise off the ground, hovering in the air as thought weightless. Pushing forth, she would begin to make her way across the Unknown Lands. Her ice blue eyes trained on her surroundings, ready for any dangers that might come her way.

    Doppo knew that when the airship docked, he and other officers would be arriving around the same time of other sorcerers. Truth be told, the Major General wasn't sure how many people were actually going to show up. Word was that it was at least a dozen powerful mages, but it wasn't farfetched that stragglers of similar caliber would have caught wind of the expedition and invited themselves. Doppo guessed that was fine, and really it was none of his business unless they started trouble. It was whatever. Also minding his business, Doppo continued to eat his meal with an unemotional look on his face—

    "Oh I agree," chuckled someone. With his guard let down, Doppo's discovery of a young woman standing right next to him drained the color from his face. Instead of choking on his food from the surprise, he froze for only a split second. Whether or not he wasn't paying attention to neighboring magical presences or if this woman simply masked it, he was frightened by her abrupt introduction either way. Doppo didn't know this woman and didn't really care to. He was here on a job, and as far as he was concerned, he still considered himself on duty. As usual, his response was minimal and listless once he regained his composure.

    "Mm." the fatigued looking redhead nodded at the stranger, resuming his feast. He wasn't in a bad mood or anything like that. In fact, he was always this inattentive and soft-spoken. So, when yet another stranger approached them, he gave him the same amount of acknowledgement as he did with the young woman. He didn't even look at him. "Yeah... I am..."

    "Oh hell fucking yes." Lilith called out, her loud confident voice echoing out into the Unknown Lands. Striding along, hips swaying sensually from side to side in the style of her famously coined 'Slut strut'. She looked perhaps, entirely out of place as she made her way across the desolate plains ahead of her. Wearing her empress armour, which consisted of a rather flamboyant white two piece, layered with gold trimmings and accessorize. Her eyes, which were normally emerald in hue already shifting into a ruby red from the mere excitement of what lay ahead. Lilith loved danger, so coming to the Unknown Lands to cull some big bad monsters, well that was just the perfectly recipe for fun.

    From the looks of it, she wasn't the only mage who had deciding to tag along on today's little escapade. As others seemed to arrive in the area and was also making her way across the territory. She however, did not see anyone especially interesting or anyone that she knew for that matter. So with that in might, she continued to head out on her own. Which the sheer number of people who had likely responded to this request from the Magic Council. She was bound to run into someone spicy, maybe one of her scrummy bosses or one of her various ex-lovers. Oh heck, she might even meet someone famous, the possibilities were endless.

    There's a time for games and there's a time to kill,
    Make up your mind baby cause the time is here
    Artemis Dagger


    Artemis had come to the Unknown Land for the sake of representation. According to his family, having a member of the Dagger family out there working for the good of society and at the behest of the Magic Council would do them so good. Particularly the renowned trouble maker that was Artemis, additionally the only son of the Daggers with a functional magic. It was bull crap really, Percy was just as good at fighting as Artemis and his gadgets certainly made up for any different lacking. Alas, he was out here, in the fucking unknown lands doing some menial job because right now his family needed some good press.

    It was almost cosmic really, because as he strode across the Unknown Lands. Hands pushed into his pocket, a stoic frown across his features he would spot HER. And no, for once the her that this often pertained to was not the delicious little pinkette known as Sivvy. No, this time it was someone much more frustrating; Lilith Kadokawa.

    Generally, he had Lilith was good friends, they got along, so much so that they had been lovers once. But the wild card that was Lili was completely unpredictable, Artemis never really knew if she was on your side. Especially not when the opposite meant some kind of benefit for her. Still, he had a bone to picked with the black-haired Rune Knight, so without further hesitation he would quicken his stride. Crossing over the plains to where she was strutting along in that flirtatious way of hers. "Hey Lil." He called to her, managing to catch her attention.

    "Long time no see. So fancy filling me in on your life, release any interesting stories lately." He remarked pointedly, his face a picture of visible annoyance. Because Lili had taken it upon herself to announce his sister pregnancy to the world through her little gossip column in Sorcerer magazine. A bomb that his family had not been prepared for.

    In a world saturated with information and communication, staying in touch with the general happenings of the society around you kept you in the know of all of the most fruitful opportunities, and if you did it for a living like Ahote did, it was possible even be ahead of the race.

    Word got around that the Magic Council was summoning some of Fiore's most renowned and powerful wizards for an expedition in the Unknown Lands. Of course, Ahote wasn't summoned for this expedition from them. As a former Coming Storm and leader of a guild of terrorists, it wasn't a surprise when he didn't receive a letter of summoning with that bright red wax stamp that was so distinct from the Council. Although he had fallen off of the radar as intended and kept most of his illegal business under the wraps as they should be, even Ahote couldn't ignore the expedition. After all, the Unknown Lands had been unexplored for as long as he had been alive, and probably even longer. When dozens of sorcerers were here to clear it out, it wasn't so unusual that he would want first dibs on anything of value. The Black Market was always in business, and one could only imagine what the head of some strange beast or a mysterious relic could go for.

    He was dressed rather unremarkably, his most notable piece of dressing being the white face mask he donned and a black tracksuit. There were people congregating on a nearby plateau, probably having some semblance of a meet and greet up there, but Ahote wasn't interested. In fact, he wanted as little attention as possible. Although he may have dropped off of the Council's radar, that didn't mean his name or face might pop up in someone's memories. There would be no good coming from showing himself, so, the wavy-haired man entered the Unknown Lands not from the plateaus, but from the deep, forested area beneath them. It was difficult to see anyone through the groves of tall oaks, so it was safe to say that no one could take an interest in what they couldn't see. However, he was about as oblivious to who else was down here in the forest with him as the people in the plateaus were of wanderers in the forest. He was confident in his abilities, but as far as he could tell, he wasn't the strongest man here. If he had picked the wrong fight, it may well be his last.

    Needless to say, it was a risk to his security to come here, but he never shyed away from risks to begin with. He wasn't going to leave these lands without something of possible value. A monster's head, an ancient coin, maybe a plant that looks interesting enough.

    Splush... Cwoosh... Splush...

    Ahote trudged through pools of mud as he meandered through the forest with a stern look on his face. He always had a resting bitchface, but he seemed particularly tense in this moment.

    Maybe I should've told the others about this, but it was so last minute... and dirty... the wavy-haired man thought to himself, glaring at the dark earth beneath him. It would have been easier to traverse the terrain in flight, but since keeping to himself was a greater priority, doing it the old-fashioned way was the ideal method. That, and, what if he missed something?

    A new journey, a new day, a new awakening, Luna tried to guess what to believe as she was approaching the new frontier through less then typical means. While most of her colleagues in the mage profession and her allies in the Rune Knights were arriving through air travel, Luna however chose a less straining means of travel. If one were to look down from the air ship towards the water, they would see what appeared to be a vehicle produced by Dagger Corp, the JM2 Harlem sports car seemingly driving on top of the water at fast speeds. While the Harlem was a fast car it was by no means capable of driving on water at its top speed. This however was a combination of the car and Luna's newest addition to her skill set, her Goddess Slayer Magic granted by Carpo.

    While on the surface it appeared the vehicle was miraculously driving on water, just beneath the car and two feet ahead and bellow was actually a platform of black earth generated by Luna's Dark Terragenesis forming as the car approaches and crumbling soon after. Luna had practiced this form for a while, however it was a dangerous practice albeit an efficient one. Luna considered having her adopted mermaid daughter use her magic to convert Luna to a mermaid and take a more scenic route, however Luna had a feeling that given the number of participants speed would be more preferable to try and be punctual or at the very least early.

    The idea of a discovery job seemed to make Luna excited, and while that alone motivated Luna greatly she had another reason to prove herself. "Lady Serilda is rumored to be on the job." Luna rarely had a chance to make a good impression on Serilda Sinclair under more favorable circumstances. Twice on a job Luna had succumbed to her own flaws before the eyes of the leader of the Rune Knights. Normally Luna wouldn't be so tense, however the Nature Fairy after being given the title of Sinclair Mining Company's Director of 'Human' Resources, Luna had a fear trickling at the back of her throat that she was at risk of losing the position by setting off one more bad example of herself before the noble woman. Despite her record of questionable deeds as a mage, Luna had served honorably and diligently in her position as Director.

    "Momma... Are we there yet? Why can't we swim there..." Neptuna said in a slightly whining tone breaking Luna's line of thought. Luna looked over to the slot in the dashboard where she had her iLac and quickly unlocked the device and glanced at the map she had open. The trail was almost done as Luna could see the island goal on the map at this point. Her gaze returned to the open sea as she took a deep breath of the refreshing and cool air. "Almost there Neppy, almost there. As for swimming, it would have taken us too long to get there. However, we can when we get there if there is stuff to do under water." She said in a reassuring tone as she started to see the island in the distance and was relieved. The technique Luna uses to form the pathway through Dark Terragenesis with proper timing for the Harlem to pass over was incredibly taxing on the Fae's concentration. 

    Luna's struggle soon came to an end as the island drew nearer and closer, and eventually Luna felt a jolt as the transition from generated to genuine earth took and Luna let a slow sign of relief pass her lips as she felt like a pressure that had been building up inside her back and head dissipate as Luna drove slower along the shore. She maintained caution as she did not want to risk harming anyone, especially someone else she was supposed to be on the job with. Luna knew she had to make a good impression considering she was the only member of Sabertooth on the job that she was aware of. She did post ahead of time at the Red Dragon Tavern if someone who was planning on going could carpool with her but no one responded or shown up twelve minutes after the time Luna said she was leaving. However there were few members in the guild with enough experience to journey out on jobs of century level caliber.  


    The uneven and sandy terrain was not as disturbing to Luna after dealing with two hours of a smooth travel over the sea  proved to be slightly disorienting about halfway through the trip. Luna had to generate a smooth pathway as trying to simulate significant imperfections would have been too much stress for the trip. 

    Eventually the car came to a slow stop as Luna made it to the meeting point and shifted the car into park and turning off the vehicle before stepping out taking a deep breath, lightly brushing stray pink hairs from her face and straightened out her qipao as she walked around towards the hood of the car as Neptuna soon followed. Luna looked around, waiting for others to arrive."Well this is going to be an interesting day." Luna thought as she was trying to anticipate who might be showing up to try and predict some form of skill set for hypothetical division of tasks. Luna herself had skills in many areas. "Honestly I wouldn't actually mind doing some under water research and retrieval, plus the job did also advertise treasure retrieval I am sure there are plenty of opportunities under water." Plus I do need to get more practice with my subaquatic capabilities. Luna thought as the idea of searching the waters seemed to grow more and more pleasant. But she figured she should at the very least meet with the others on the job to ensure everyone being on the same page and to avoid risking any fighting among people who are supposed to be allies.

    I torture you, I'm a slave to your games, I'm just a sucker for pain.
    I wanna chain you up, I wanna tie you down, I'm just a sucker for pain.
    Jester


    Disgusting.
    Disgusting and yet, fascinating.

    This was all entirely fascinating to the clown. How easily these little piggy's came running to the beck and call of the Magic Councils request. And with what purpose? Reputation? Money? Boredom? Such greedy little piggy's he found them all to be - these humans. So desperate to rise up the ranks of society and to be noticed by one another. For respect or for power. Notice me! Notice me! It was pitiful. They were all nothing. Sacks of flesh ready for the slaughter and one day he would slaughter them. Every last one of them, he relished in the thought of doing so. Fantasize he would, the image of watching them squirm under his boot as blood poured from every orifice begging him for mercy invigorating the red head. But alas not today, for the clown had a different agenda in mind for today.

    As tempting as it was, it would not do for him to create a game today. Even he wasn't so foolish, the senseless butchery of mages was simply no fun without meaning. And needless to say killing any of them here would only provide aid to their cause. Not to mention the sheer number of them against just him alone wasn't an ideal situation. He had no doubts of his power and the fact that should he initiate a game that he would take the majority of them out with ease. But there was some interesting characters out today, ones who he would rather test his capabilities out individual. Alone they were ants, together they were beasts. It would be fun but reckless. And he had bigger plans ahead that he needed to ensure came to fruition. So either way, if he played together, then he would either die a fool or live and brand he victims as heroes. And he couldn't have that now could he?

    No instead, he was here for a much tamer task. The prospect of others exploring such lands meant that they would have the opportunity to gather and collect some of the precious fauna here. Many of the materials that he had gathered for his 'experiments' were located in the Unknown Lands. Which was why he was venturing out to gather as much of it as he could before all the little piggy's came and took it for themselves. An irksome endeavour but important none the less. He decided that it would be best to gather some of the soils and various eco matter from the area as well, so as to test the possibility of growing them elsewhere. He was sure his queenie would permit for him to use one of the spare rooms as a greenery of sorts. Especially considering a lot of the plants he intended to grow were ideal for the manufacturing of poisons. Something that would undoubtedly be beneficial to the cause that was Erring's rising.

    He stood off to the side of the forests, leaning against one of the trees. Surrounding by enough foliage that he would remain just out of sight for any passers by. The mechanic churning of his Harlequins working away at the forestry the only nearby sound. He was sporting a 'disguise' of sorts today, gone was his usual clownish garb and face paints. Instead he looked much rather look a normal man, in his black shirt and trousers. Simple leather work shoes and black spectacles which would distract from the details of his face. A means of preventing himself from being immediately attacked should anyone spot him and his workers gathering materials. Ideally, they would walk on by and be none the wiser to the Warlords presence. He had even taking the liberty of disguising his magic. His harlequins, who were recognisable to some in their own way were sporting black robes, a more conspicuous look but all they need really. Should anyone get too close, he could easily have them disappear with a snap of his fingers. He too would also be able to disappear with ease, should he need to.

    One of the effects of being a renown Warlord meant that he was suddenly much more recognisable. This had been made clear from the response to his appearance at the Urban Nights event in Oshibana, just before he had slaughtered all of those people. They had cried out his title and some had even began running before he could have any real fun butchering them. Playing games that required discretion were going to be more difficult these days which meant that he had to consider situations carefully as he broached them. Not that this was an issue for him, he was very much used to meticulously planning all of his games. A feat that often made the sinister result of their suffering even more tantalizing.

    One of the black-robed dolls would scuttle over to him, a extra large hessian sack in tow. The doll would drop the bag in front of him, spreading the rim and showing him the plants that it had gathered for its masters. Nightshade, Foxglove, Lantana and more. A perfect gathering of lethal materials. He would nod approvingly, reaching forward her touched the bag. The moment his fingers came into contact with the sack, it would vanish into thin air. Transported magically to his personal pocket dimension where he planned to sort the materials later. In place of the bag, an empty one would appear, which the doll would pick up and carry back into the forest swiftly. Continuing its work of gathering at its masters request, they really were the perfect little slaves - his mechanical harlequins.

    Jester would glance back across the plains, keeping an eye out for any others who might come by. Fortunately he had ventured into quite a desolate part of the forest, and began combing through the trees with his toys for quite a few hours now, meaning he had already collect plenty of material at this point. Still, he saw no point in stopping, not yet at least.

    So the Magic Council had finally shown an interest in the Unknown Lands, huh? Well, that was certainly interesting. As old as those lands were there should have been some interest in its mysteries long ago. There were some that had somehow found thier way there in the past and explored its regions. Samira herself had been one of them. Although, her past explorations were just a few parts of the many. The Unknown Lands was a vast place. It would take more than just a simple single expedition to know all of its secrets and to map it out completely. Yet thus far that is what the Magic Council had gone with. An expedition that was to be made up of powerful mages that could handle themselves. Naturally rewards and the promise of jewels for a job well done also came with the task to reel in other volunteers that would have otherwise ignored the expedition altogether. What kind of personalities and individuals that would get the attention of was a mystery, but Samira could make an educated guess that not all of them would be interested in the expedition itself. Just the rewards, if even that. Still, at least the Magic Council was making an effort. It was a start.

    Samira had recieved a later notice than some others of the expedition. That came as no surprise and was understandable. Most of the time she was off doing her own thing and was rarely even in Fiore. Getting in touch with her even for the Magic Council wasn't an easy task. The only reason it even worked at all that time around was because she didn't have anything else going on that required her full time and attention. It was easy to accept and join in on the explorations of the Unknown Lands. It gave her something to do that wasn't some serious world ending ordeal for once. Hopefully. There were probably dangerous unknown monsters hiding around in those lands that would ruin the idea of an easy and somewhat peaceful expedition. That always seemed to be the case. Always. Nevertheless, she had decided to tag along anyway and do her part. Whatever that would end up being.

    With her late notice to the whole thing, Samira had gone off to the Unknown Lands on her own rather than try and meet up with some traveling party. She wasn't even sure if there was a meeting place at the lands itself. Some coordinates were given to her so that she actually knew the general area that would be explored, but that was about it. As for who else had even signed up for the party, that was also unknown to her. Maybe she would find out when she got there, or perhaps not. With the size of the lands and everything within there was a possibility that would run into no one at all. That was fine. As long as the expedition was successful it didn't matter. She was sure that many other capable and reliable people would be around there somewhere making sure that is what the end result would be.

    So, how did Samira end up getting to the Unknown Lands? Walking was out of the question, and she didn't exactly have access to some air traveling vehicle like she used to. Using one of her spirits for that purpose would have been an obvious choice, but the two that could do that didn't exactly like the idea of carrying her all the way to those Unknown Lands... or even the across the street really. They did have their pride, after all, and they were not going to be fans of the whole being used as mounts idea that day. Thankfully, Samira had one last resort, and that was to use her portal spirit instead. Traveling to the Unknown Lands that way wasn't anything new, and he wasn't even busy either. She was a lucky summoner indeed!

    The spirit had made a portal that took her as close to the coordinates as possible. It worked to some extent. As the blue swirling portal vanished behind her after stepping through, Samira looked around the area, her verdant gaze taking in everything that was to be seen. She could confirm that the area was one she had not been to before. Sure it was just another forest-like area that she had seen numerous times, but they didn't look familiar at all. The area didn't feel familiar either. As for people, well, she didn't see or sense anyone, but she didn't try very hard. It was best to assume that she would be alone for a while and move on instead of wasting time looking around for allies. If she was meant to find anyone, then she would. Or the other way around. It wasn't as if it was her first expedition. Then again, others might have assumed it was since she was wearing her normal clothes as usual instead of something more... travel friendly. She was used to it was the only excuse she would have given for that inquiry.

    Without wasting much more time, Samira stepped forward and continued to do so in repitition, allowing her feet to take her through the lands to find anything of interest or worth taking note of. Even while alone and used to it, she did wonder if maybe it was wise to remain so. Maybe she should have sent word to Leona or even Zachary to see if they were also coming to the expedition and invite them if they were unaware of it. Well, it was a bit too late for that now.

    'You could always use that annoying iLac device and invite them instead of bugging us with your thoughts. It's not hard.'

    "Perhaps later. Right now we should make ourselves more useful. I need a few of you to scout ahead if you do not mind."

    With that said, the energy of four spirits burst from the keys that were held on Samira's keyring. The colored particles of the four spirits went in seperate directions, each one scouting and seeing if there was anything noteworthy to report.

    Just like Amalie, Sivvy also remembered a time that she'd had to explore an unknown land and clear out the monsters there with the West Fiore Trading Company, even though that venture had been a far cry briefer than Johann and Amalie's tenures there. She didn't intend to make any mistakes today, because while her mentor was still around somewhere to carry her on his back until she had recovered, that was a memory that still brought her a great deal of shame. If anything good could be said of it, it was that she'd managed to redeem herself by felling a beast ten times her size from the inside, but even so, she'd embarked on an even more strenuous training regiment than the torturous one she'd already had in place from Dr. Raelin. Perhaps it'd already paid off. Sivvy was quite strong now and had expanded her magic prowess beyond what she'd known she was capable of.

    Efficient as ever, Sivvy had arrived earlier than most of the mages now crowding into the Unknown Lands. While most would start at the edges and work their way inward, she'd done the opposite. The bigger beasts would be further away from the threatening outskirts. Starting near the center, the pinkette slowly worked her way to the west. The first thing she encountered in the deepest shadows of the dark forest near a bubbling lake was a gigantic thorned ball of flesh and tentacles, sporting one jumbo eye and five rows of sharp, venomous fangs. It was an odd creature for sure, and very hostile, but thankfully its blood wasn't acidic, since she was now covered in it as she walked. She'd simply skewered it like a meatball on a metal spike that shot up beneath it, then proceeded to blow it up, splattering the area with blood and cooked chunks. The clone wasn't one to play around and drag out a fight, so the quicker she could kill it, the more beasts she could add to her count.

    Sivvy continued on like that for a while, leaving any hostile enemy in her way lying dead in her wake. Her appearance was absolutely grizzly by the time she neared the outer rim, but the overcast sky wasn't like that for no reason. At random she was hit with small bursts of rain, cleaning her of some of the gore just as she caught a familiar scent blown into her face by a gentle breeze. A small smile crept onto her formerly emotionless face and she took a second to primp. Pulling damp locks into a neat bun atop her head, she hurried toward the smell of one Artemis Dagger.

    Lili would recognise the masculine shout of one of the Dagger boys any day, particular one that she heard so frequently in the past. She would glance over at him, a playful smirk on her face. He still looked as scrummy as ever, but the physical relationship between them was long since over. It had been fun for a while, but she had sampled plenty of the what the elder Dagger lad had to offer. These days they had a pretty good dynamic as far as she was concerned, the occasional catch up coupled in with favours here and there. She liked Art, he was good people, albeit less interesting these days since he'd all but vanished from the social scene. Something she was keen to learn the reason of, hopefully, it was something dishy, maybe something she could let loose in her next Whispers column. Speaking of which, she had anticipated that she would be running into Artemis soon, all things considered. Although she hadn't expected that it would be here of all places, of course, Arty wasn't one to beat around the bush. A point he validated when he reached her, immediately mentioning the magazine in a sarcastic and accusatory tone.

    Lilith would chuckle at his remark, "Certainly has been a while huh? How's my favourite Dagger doing? Being a good boy and staying out of trouble?" She teased, her lashes fluttering up at him mockingly. "Mmm, yes well I've done quite a few interesting pieces as of late. But you already know that, don'tcha? Come on Art. Quit the bullshit and hit me with your tantrum. I can assure I can take it." Her tone was entirely sassy and challenging in its own right. She for one did not fear the awe-inspiring prowess of the Dagger family. She was impressed by them, for sure. But scared, no, not really. Especially since she had left their employment, the Rune Knights were a faction they couldn't touch, and she knew that. And despite the men in suits that she had noticed keeping an eye on her lately, they didn't really do much to impact her life. They couldn't move on her, not with her job and her already growing reputation amongst the ranks of the Rune Knights and as a guest writer for Sorcerer Magazine. Stalemate, it would seem, for now.

    Oh, it was music to her ears. The sounds of men as they lay dying at her feet. How long had she been here now? Minutes? Hours? Days? It was hard to tell but one thing was for certain, the vampire’s lust for blood was still as strong as ever. Each slash from her water claws caused even more of the lovely crimson liquid to fill the air, creating tapestries of it all over the floor. It truly was art of the most primal sort and as the petite ginger haired slayer dodged and weaved, her movements were oddly graceful or as graceful as they could be for a bloodthirsty savage. It had all started to simply, with the Elysium mage having come across a pack of hunters in the forest. They’d clearly never seen anyone quite like her before and had reacted in a rather hostile manner. Unfortunately for them, that was a bloody stupid thing to do and Lena had responded naturally by slaughtering every single one of them. They didn’t seem to be running out of men though and she assumed that their village must be nearby. A large one at that.

    Truthfully, Lena had forgotten what her purpose for coming to the Unknown Lands even was, if she’d even had one to begin with. It had all been tossed aside by the thrill of the fight and her desire for carnage. Her brain had completely switched off while her natural instincts had come to the forefront. Ah, it was much more fun this way and as she managed to evade a crude javelin that one of the natives had thrown at her, a laugh would escape her lips. Summoning an ice counterpart using her slayer magic, she’d hull it back at him, catching the weak fool in the abdomen and causing him to crumple to a heap on the floor. There were so many bodies that it was becoming difficult for Lena to find safe footing but the number of foes seemed to be dropping and after scoring a powerful uppercut to one last tribesman, that’d seem to be the end of them.

    He was still breathing though and so Lena would smile and approach, causing him to back up as much as he could, “Alright, I’m probably wasting my fucking time but I want to know where your village is. Tell me.”

    The tribesman merely looked up at her, seemingly unable to understand her.

    With a frustrated sigh, Lena would kneel beside the man and draw a rather crude picture of a hut along with stick figures resembling people. She’d then point at her drawing, then at him. He at least seemed to have a vague idea of what she was getting at although he quickly shook his head in answer to it. Annoyed further, the ginger slayer would stand up, before proceeding to punt him in the stomach with a powerful kick, causing him to roll over in pain. Still, he refused which caused Lena to continue with her punishment, unleashing kick after kick until he finally stopped resisting and pointed a finger west.

    Chuckling with delight, the slayer would speak once more despite him not understanding her, “See? If you’d just co operated with me from the start, this would have been a whole lot easier.”

    With one final strike to the back of his head, the figure would become motionless, unable to get back to his village in order to warn them. Lena, however, swiftly followed his brief directions and sprinted off. They’d attacked her and she wanted revenge, it was as simple as that in truth and as she sprinted through the undergrowth, preferring it to flying because of the large trees surrounding her, she couldn’t help but smile about what was to come. All in all, she was only running for about five minutes or so before she came across a large clearing through the trees, covered with old style huts.

    It didn’t take all that long for her to be noticed either but such was the adrenaline and lust flowing through her body that words would have been meaningless anyway. The only sound that came from her was a feral scream before she was leaping into the middle of the camp, once more letting her violent savagery to the talking for her. Her powers of water, ice and fear ripped the village to shreds and they were just unable to put up much in the way of resistance. There was no mercy or restraint, Lena slaughtered everyone equally, gorging on the shrieks of her victims and taking pleasure in every moment of carnage. There was no thrill quite like taking the life of another and by the time the ginger vampire was finished, she’d more than satiated her need for it, as well as her desire for revenge.

    When it was all said and done, she’d simply stand in the centre of the mayhem that she’d caused, satisfied with her work and ready to move on. The Unknown Lands were so vast and she couldn’t help but feel curious and so she decided to remain for a while and see just what dangers the place truly had. It was only when she’d started to calm down that she remembered her cause for being there and the redhead simply chuckled. It was supposed to have been to do with simply exploring the place with members of other guilds, across the alignment spectrum. Welp, if there was any chance of some kind of understanding then she’d probably done a good job of ruining it. Ah well, it wasn’t as if any of that mattered to Lena and besides that, she expected such notions to be a trap of some kind anyway.

    Turning away from the mess that she’d made, Lena would wander off back into the forest, back on the hunt or maybe just a bit of company for a while. If there were any other mages that she took a fancy to anyway.

    Ah yes, there was that insufferable nature of hers. Normally, he enjoyed that side of Lili, encouraged it even. But to be on the receiving ends of her 'no fucks given' demeanour, was frustrating to say the least. At the very least, he was used to this side of her, so he knew how to handle it. "Yeah I've been better Lil." He commented sternly, "How could you run that story on Pan? You didn't think to drop me a call first. Do you realise the shitstorm you set ablaze in our family?" He hissed at her. Glancing around to make sure that no one was listening in on their conversation before looking back at her. For a moment, he thought he saw one of the Dagger Corp cars driving across of the water, but he was too annoyed with the Ravenette to pay much attention to it.

    "All I'm saying Lil. Is that I thought we were close enough for you not to drop me in it. You covered me by debunking the secret marraige story, which I appreciate. But like can't you do me this simple courtesy next time, I didn't even fucking know Pan was pregnant. Where the hell did you get this information?" He asked, admittedly his frustrations were made worse by his sisters distance. Why had she told him herself? The fact that he, along with the rest of his family, had to find out through a news article. Was a intense rubdown of salt in an already nasty wound. Their family was complicated there was no doubt about that. But he, Pan and Percy... well they were close. Weren't they?

    Mythica couldn't really say she was very surprised by the response she got. She wasn't familiar with the stranger next to her, but based on her initial judgment he seemed to not care much for her presence. That didn't get rid of the constant smirk that rested on Mythica's lip though. When another man came to greet them the woman bowed her head slightly. "Of course! Couldn't miss an opportunity this exciting, right?" She responded with a light chuckle which accompanied most of her words now. Mythica would continue staring out at the mysterious landscape before something hit her senses... A familiar presence. She turned slightly and looked back at Doppo. "A pleasure, mr. knight. And to you as well."
    The time wizard stated to Faust before turning and walking in a random direction, leaving the two by themselves.

    "Can't say I'm surprised you came!" A familiar voice called out from above Ahote. If he looked he'd see Mythica sitting on a tree branch with her legs hanging off behind him. Her smile gleaning. She wasted no time hopping down and skipping towards the former guild master, a childish like happiness about her expression. "New lands present new business opportunities I suppose." She stated aloud. It had been quite some time she had seen Ahote, but Mythica could safely say he was one of the few in Earthland she actually enjoyed being around. She wasn't sure what his opinion was of her, but it didn't really matter in the end anyways. Mythica didn't really seemed phased by the thoughts others had of her. "I take it the magic council's pets don't know the white serpent is slithering about, do they?" Mythica laughed somewhat, knowing the answer already.

    What the hell was this crap?

    Mythal wasn’t a fan of letters that were ominous and lacking clarity. It wasn’t even just him acting as the Director of the Rune Knight that was suspicious of a trap being set for him, though perhaps that should have been one of the higher tiered concerns. But as a man who had been born into a cult that could or could not be still hunting him and a goddess that was surely still hunting him, letters that provided little detail or thought was always concerning. After all, hadn’t it been the Unknown Lands that had brought him into his first real confrontation with Faera after almost two decades? And that job posting had been as mysterious as this recent one.

    Granted, he’d been in a far less stable state back then. What had it been, two years ago? He couldn’t even recall at this point. The job had called for him to investigate a ravine where people had disappeared pretty consistently. He had gone, not expecting to find much and not caring to look any further than he needed to. But his journey down into the misty, stony walls had brought him to a platform -- a trans dimensional doorway hidden in plain sight. He’d been teleported into a testing chamber, where he’d been forced to fight off several challenges. Eventually he’d come upon a realm of pitch black darkness, which brought forth one final challenge. The masked child had been hard to deal with up until Mythal managed to summon Curse to him, his wayward sword back whatever mysterious journey it had been on. And from there the Darkness King realized where he was -- a doorway to darkness, the precipice for Kingdom Darkness. And standing at the door, meeting his gaze the pathway slammed shut. He’d promised to return and end her the next time.

    Unfortunately, circumstances changed the next time he dove into the darkness. He’d been convinced he had no other choice but to face Faera and stop her from destroying the world. It had been a fatal mistake and a trap and in the end, Mythal had been pulled into Kingdom Darkness at the behest of the goddess. If it hadn’t been for Serilda’s timely invasion and his father’s release of the door, he may have been lost forever. Truly, the Unknown Lands weren’t a place that held any kind of love or care for Mythal. Yet here he was again, doing the same thing as before.

    At least he wasn’t alone. Serilda was there with him; the two heads of the Rune Knights deciding to take part in whatever expedition this would turn out to be. There were several other members from the Knights there as well, though they seemed to be intermingled among the slopes of dirt and sand. A lot of people had gotten this particular summons, which was good news and bad news. On the one hand, it meant the chance that it was a trap for himself or Serilda specifically was near impossible. On the other, it didn’t mean that someone hadn’t planned anything nefarious for those interested enough to make the trip out.

    Even Vandrad and Mercury had received the summons and agreed to come. If anything, it would provide plenty of opportunity for the engaged pair to get to know the other partners a bit more. Their original meeting had been somewhat shocking and the second one had dwindled into violence before it even got a chance to start. Though, if Mythal was being honest, he preferred dealing with a disgruntled gang than trying to navigate the intricacies of a city-wide rave. Even Vandrad had seemed to lighten up after beating up the strange, multicolored, disco samurai.

    As Mythal stood on the edge of a hillside, looking out over the sloping fields of utter unimpressive dirt, he sighed dramatically and shook his head. “Well… all of this is… awful,” he said to Serilda beside him, gesturing towards the entirety of the surveyable area. “I was hopin’ to keep this place in the past for good and yet here it is again, creepin’ up like a bad hangover.” He reached into his pocket and pulled out the scrap of paper once more, reading the nonsensical words that dripped with the ingenuity of a badly written sitcom. “This says the Magic Council is interested in learnin’ more about the secrets here. Ain’t that interestin’ in itself.” The Council suddenly developing an interest in lost relics and treasures wasn’t entirely suspicious at face value but deeper, in the heart of the matter, there was always a chance that something darker was at play. The doorway to darkness was here and while he and Serilda had never given anyone any indication where it was, it was completely possible someone else may have stumbled upon it and spoke of it.

    “Well,” he started as he put the paper back into his pocket, now resolved to see this matter through no matter what. “I know Lili’s out there somewhere, though hell knows what kind of trouble that girl is rustlin’ up. I think your little pal there… uh… Donatello or somethin’... he’s out there too. I think I see one of the Engineering Corps’ ships over there so my money would be he’s hangin’ out over there. Who knows what other weird people we’re gonna run into here,” Mythal said with a small chuckle, pocketing his hands as he glanced backwards. “I don’t see Vandrad or Mercury yet. Pro’lly takin’ their time gettin’ here. I can’t imagine Vandrad is hoppin’ with excitement over the prospect of… well, prospectin’” His newly discovered adoptive brother and the woman from Silver Wolf seemed to have a knack for making any entrance, given the two times they’d already met up with them. Chances were the trend would continue.

    “We should pro’lly check on the you-know-what at some point, just to make sure no one is lookin’ that way,” he spoke softly to Serilda, referencing the door to darkness without saying its name outright. “But other than that, I guess we’re just… combin’ everywhere for… somethin’.” It was going to be a mindless task but maybe it would give out something beneficial?

    Nah, he doubted it.

    Trinity
    I became insane, with long intervals of horrible sanity.

    Not for the first time in her life, nor would it be the last, Trinity had no idea where she was or how she’d gotten here. There sure were a lot of people around, though. She didn’t recognize anyone, but that was pretty standard. What was the last thing she remembered? She’d been at a party of some kind, with Nathaniel… no, it wasn’t just a party, it was a wedding. They had danced and laughed, eaten a lot of delicious food and even more delicious cake. He had made cheesecake for her that was more scrumptious than anything she’d ever tasted before in her life. She remembered kissing him as they danced, having watched the people around them behaving in curious and amorous fashions that she didn’t really understand… but she’d wanted to understand. So, Trinity had kissed him and he seemed to have enjoyed it. He’d smiled and told her that he loved her. Words whose weight she didn’t fully comprehend, but they had made her happy. She’d been very happy with Nat, in fact.

    So where was he now? Where was she? How much time had passed since then? A few days? Weeks? Months? Frowning a little, Trinity pulled out her iLac and turned it on to search for the date and was quickly dismayed by how long it had been since her most recent memory. Pulling open her messages, she checked to see if he had tried to contact her. There were no notifications, but she’d noticed in the past that sometimes she checked her messages while she was blacked out. Sure enough, she had dozens of messages from Nat, each one sounding more concerned than the last, all of them left unreplied to. A sickening sensation wriggled in her stomach. It had happened all over again, just like with Ehoron.

    Or maybe not. She had the phone, now… maybe she could try to reach out to him? Focusing on the device, she set herself to typing away at the message. I’m sorry, she started, typing in stops and pauses as she battled back the furious emotions of guilt and anxiety that threatened to overwhelm her. What was she supposed to say to him? Would he even want to hear from her anymore? Don’t know where I am. Don’t know how I got here. Need to talk. Will find you. Promise. Trinity hoped that would be enough. She hadn’t yet told him about her frightening propensity for losing long bouts of time. It was a difficult thing to talk about, and the last time she had opened up to someone about it they’d disappeared and never come back. But something told her she needed to try again, that she needed to give Nathaniel the truth. He deserved that much.

    Putting the phone in her pocket, Trinity wiped away the tears that had formed in her eyes, doing her best to stay focused. Ever since Janet had sent her to survive a few days in the wilds, she’d learned to be stronger, if only a little. The strange man’s voice had encouraged her to hang in, and while he hadn’t talked more than a sentence or two she’d been comforted by the knowledge that she wasn’t alone, even if she couldn’t see him anywhere. Still, it had been a valuable lesson in trusting herself and not letting herself be overwhelmed to the point of paralysis. She needed to be alert. She could find her way through this situation if she was persistent.

    That didn’t make the situation any less frightening, though. Taking a small breath, she began to search her clothing. Often times when she woke up from these blackouts, there was something on her that gave some indication of where she was. Sure enough, in one of her pockets was a flier for a job about exploring something called the Unknown Lands. Had she picked this up in the guild hall? Was she here on Elysium business? The flier was requesting everything from mapping out the land and learning about its secrets to fighting and clearing out monsters that roamed there. Trinity shuddered at the idea of fighting anything, particularly beasts. She could and would defend herself if necessary, but typically she had to be backed into a corner for that. Not all of the requested activities revolved around fighting… maybe she could do some of the other things.

    Holding onto the paper for comfort, she tentatively walked out into the lands by herself, keeping an eye out for anyone whom she might recognize, and looking for a place to start exploring.
    Please forgive me if I don’t talk much at times. It’s loud enough in my head.

    Paid Expedition (Endgame Party) EZerz23

    Duty.

    There was no other reason that the Ambassador of Dies Irae had found his way to the Unknown Lands today.

    The Magic Council of Fiore had requested his presence on this expedition directly, and he knew that the governing body wouldn't send for him directly if the matter at hand wasn't serious. Of course, the man saw himself as having no other choice than to comply. He was still bound by loyalty to the organization that had funded his guild and given it the extensive legal status they enjoyed today, though loyalty, much like other things, was nothing more than a surface level impression. It was easily established, easier to maintain, and the easiest to lose in a single moment. The future was very much unclear to the man, though he knew that, for the time being, he would heed a call to action and hoped that the favor would be returned, that his service to the societies of Earthland would be remembered when the time for action would come. Today, though, that was nothing more than a concept.

    Johann didn't really know where exactly in the so called "Unknown Lands" he had ended up. A befitting name for a continent that was vast, unexplored, and full of all kinds of unimaginable dangers, riches, and mysteries to discover. Naturally, a myriad of mages had tried, and notoriously failed, before. Some. on the contrary, had made noteworthy discoveries and shared their success with the world, though compared to the ones that had vanished without a trace ... well, perhaps those were just stories, after all. What the God of Ishgar did know was that this particular place was evidently nothing to scoff at. Danger was admittedly an adequate description of the Unknown Lands.

    Manifesting somewhere within the uncharted territory, the man had found himself in a wide open, rocky plane, no trees or other forms of vegetation, apart from swaths of moss and grasses, in sight, the mid-day sun bearing down from above with unrelenting intensity. Other people didn't seem to be around for dozens of miles, either. He couldn't sense anyone, at least. Harsh terrain was something he had expected right off the get-go, sure, though what had come as quite a bit of a surprise was the pack of wyverns that had descended from high altitude almot immediately after he had arrived, giving the man barely a chance to breathe or take in the situation before being forced to dodge a stream of concentrated, onyx-black flame ejected from the maw of one of the beasts with a surprised "What the-", scorching the red sandstone where he had stood just a fleeting moment prior and leaving behind a path of smoldering ash.

    Coming to a screeching halt, a cloud of bronze-colored dust kicked up as he skirted across the rocky ground, the man's eyes would rapidly move between the beasts in order to at least assess their numbers, as well as get a general, though admittedly very much surface-level impression of their forms and capabilities. He could count four, though that didn't mean that there weren't more lurking in the area. Their massive bodies, undoubtedly 50 feet, perhaps more, in length, were somewhat flat and snake or lizard-like in shape, tinted entirely with an ominous charcoal black. Glowing eyes, alight with magical power, sat deeply in their reptilian skulls, and pairs of dark wings stretched into the sky from each one of them. As had been made abundantly clear, they also seemed to be able to breathe flame, a quite deadly one at that, the silver-haired Rune Mage thought, strong of smoke still rising from small fires that were consuming some of the already sparce plantlife of this desert.

    With a flicker of magic and the glow of runic scripture on his right hand, a lance-like sword would manifest within the man's grasp. "Mars. Get ready", his voice rang out with a curt tone, addressing the Nephilim he served as a vessel. "Looks like we'll go straight into the actions this time". The Second Seal responded with a deep, growling cackle. Johann could imagine the kind of excitement the Lord of War felt at the prospect of a fight with such beasts. "Understood, tssehehe", the low voice would echo through the back of the silver-haired man's mind. It was good to have the Nephilim ready to fight, at least.

    Picking the outer-most of the group, Johann's form would blurr in a burst of ridiculous speed, an explosion of redbrown dirt and dust thrown into the air where he had stood, catapulting himself at the creature in a burst of magical energy. Flanking the monstrous beast, he would come to a stop at its right side, placing the palm of his hand on the creature's rough, reptilian scales before unleashing the Mana he had been building up in a single, devastating blast with the command word "Force". The runes on his arm flared up, transforming the magical energy into pure kinetic force that gripped the wyvern's body, crushing it under the excessive power that would hit with the punch of a heavy impact, even for a creature of this size, before launching it off into the direction of the blast. Unable to react, the wyvern slammed into the ground with a thunderous crash, unmoving, dead.

    A screech rang out to the man's side, his head instinctively swerving towards the origin of the sound only to spot another one of the wyverns, though this one had lowered itself onto the ground, its massive legs shaking the ground with every heavy step of its charge towards the Ambassador, it's maw wide agape with the intent to crush the man between its razor sharp teeth. The man grit his teeth, unable to react in time to dodge the bite of the monstrosity. He'd just have to face it, then. With considerable force, the jaws of the wyverns descended upon his form, though the man swiftly raised his free hand to prevent being turned into swiss cheese in a single instant, using his legs and arm to hold the creature's maw open, his expression one of visible strain. "A little bit of assistance would be greatly appreciated!", he would bark at the Second Seal, the Nephilim cackling in overt amusement. "Yes, yes, as always. Of course". Within a second, Mars would take control over the vessel, a broad, toothy grin spreading across the silver-haired man's face as he raised the blade, pointing it directly into the wyverns throat. Arcs of electricity would surge across the man's form for a few, passing moments before accumulating in the blade and, with a single, decisive attack, releasing a lightning bolt into the creature's body, the echoing rumble of thunder travelling over the surrounding area as the pseudo-dragon's body fell limp, the Second Seal leaping out of the death trap with an almost playful ease.

    "You're welcome, vessel. Two down, two more to go, tssehe".

    "FOR MAD SCIENCE!! TIME TO GET EXCITED, YOU GUYS."




    While Faustein had been waiting for the girl and the man whom he had engaged in conversation just then, a small group of roving monsters came to attack him. Maybe it was because he was in their territory, maybe it was because they thought of him as a meal, or maybe it was out of sheer boredom, but the reason did not matter whatsoever in the end.

    "How fortuitous, now there is no longer any need for me to track you research specimens down on my own. Can you comprehend my words, or are you the unintelligent sort of monsters?"

    He remarked and asked while yawning to the small group of monsters, one of them being dullahan, another being a nine-tailed fox, yet another being a doppelganger, and the last two being a predator slime and a giant arachnid, respectively. They were all fairly low level, C-class at the most, or at least that was what his smart holographic glasses showed him when he examined them. It seemed that they were at least capable of understanding his words, seeing as how they uttered howls of rage in response to his taunt and then came at him with the intent to kill. Upon beholding this, Faustein frowned a little and retorted exasperatedly

    "Silence!! I will permit none of those irksome squeals from you lot!"

    He exclaimed to them and then proceeded to activate his usual spell sequence which would serve to incapacitate them, if they did not have any hidden abilities to counter it, of course. First, he activated his "Medical Art: Diagnoscope" spell by putting his hands together in a diamond shape and after gathering mana to form a targeting reticule hologram there, he beamed the rest out at the incoming monsters to scan them for weaknesses. After analyzing these, he activated his "Medical Art: Defibrillator Palm - Twin Spears" spell as well as his "Body Manipulation Art: Dragon Claws - Reaper's Dance". This combination caused his fingernails to enlarge tremendously and become large, curved, thick and razor sharp dragon claws and these began crackling and sparking as a massive amount of electricity built up in them, the sound resembling that of a thousand birds chirping simultaneously. Lastly, he activated his "Medical Art: Mana Threads - Strangulating Ligatures" which caused long threads made of condensed mana with the characteristics of piano wires to emanate from his fingertips. Now that his preparations were complete, he went on the offensive against them.

    The first three, namely the dullahan, the nine-tailed fox, and the doppelganger; were summarily mowed down by the series of electrified slash attacks he made against them while the last two, aka the predator slime and the giant arachnid succumbed to destruction via the strangulating ligatures he used on them with the mana threads. Of course, for the predator slime, he had to channel the electricity in his hands through them since physical attacks would not work against it, but eventually all of them lay strewn around him, barely alive and squealing or howling in what could only be described as pleas of mercy. Faustein responded in the usual cold, detached manner he did to all his specimens

    "You are merely my research specimens and so, you have NO rights whatsoever, especially because you have committed the cardinal folly of attacking me without provocation. So, just surrender every fiber of your beings to me and make peace with your fate."

    He remarked with the stereotypical mad scientist's glint in his eyes and a wide, deranged smile on his thin lips. Then, he brought out one of his specimen storage units, a cubical container small enough to hold in his palm and then pressed its surface once. In response, the side of the box facing his defeated enemies and then a vortex sucked them all inside before the cubical storage unit sealed itself back up again. Then, he put it away in his tactical utility belt and turned to the man who had responded and nodded to him while responding simply

    "I see, duly noted then."

    Faustein said in the same calm, even tone from earlier and with that same impassive, detached facial expression as well. Then, he turned to the girl who had greeted him and replied as well

    "Sorry about that, and likewise."

    He would have been his usual socially oblivious self, but these two were unknown variables and so, he figured it would be prudent to be cautious and thus, he made a conscious effort to observe the usual social mores of pleasantries. Then, he fell silent, plotting out the various experiments he was going to conduct on these five specimens he had collected just now and also waited to see the reactions the man and the girl would have to what had just occurred, if at all.

    Even if there wasn't anyone he knew of in his immediate vicinity, if living in solitude from society had taught him anything, it was that you were never truly alone when you wandered in a forest, especially if it was unexplored territory. There were many chilling monsters on Mt. Hakobe or even in the Magnolian East Forest as he grew up, and while his circumstances may have differed between then and now, his experience remained.

    The rustle of a bush, the waves of the leaves rubbing against each other, and the faint and quiet breath of a beast—Ahote stopped when he heard it. Or, well, that's what he thought he heard. Instead of a ferocious monster jumping out from the darkness, he was greeted by a familiar smooth, feminine voice from above. It was none other than Mythica, an enigmatic individual who was more like a fly who wouldn't go away than the mysterious, yet powerful sorcerer she really was.

    "You're right. But you know how it is. Anyone wanting easy jewel would be a fool not to tag along." Ahote sighed, peering over his shoulder with the same unamused and stern expression that was so distinct of him, "I take it that you're here for the same reason—attracted to the abyss like the rest of us. An opportunity for connections, Mythica?"

    Seika had a strange relationship with the Magic Council! Well, not strange exactly- the majority of people probably shared her similar sense of unawareness and disregard for what was going on with them. In her case, she just didn't know what the big deal was. They seemed cool, though! And more than a few times now, their little doohickey adventures turned out to be a lot of fun! That one time, when there was that thing with the really bright room and the robots and the zappy lightning walls, had been really neat. The girl's only wish was that she had been able to take more pictures of the area. Meeting Eva was also really nice! The girl gave great hugs. Speaking of her, though, Seika hadn't actually seen her friend around lately. Last time the two had met, Eva had been kidnapped by some iceberg loving people and they had engaged in a free fall until finding that bad guy. Her memory might have just been going fuzzy, but the rest was difficult to remember. Aphelia would know, though. She glanced around, searching for her bond mate. Since they had just ventured into the Unknown Lands a few minutes ago, their senses were on much higher alert than when they had just been rambling through the areas.

    Ugh, she just loved flowers. There weren't any flowers here, which was disappointing. Although, it wasn't entirely surprising? Seika might not have been able to place the origin of her suspicions, but somehow, she'd had a feeling the scene would be like this. Mostly desolate, with some trees though! And a surprising amount of people. The girl gaped at the large group in sight, scattered around as different individuals went about doing different things. In the few moments that she was watching, several left and newcomers joined in. Honestly, she couldn't even take note of their features. There was such a large mixing of different magical signatures that it was funny to close her eyes and try to match the aura to the person's appearance. For this one guy, she predicted that they would be super skinny and willowy due to the... breezy? aspect of their magic, but instead, they were super sturdy looking! Like, bone structure wise. Er, actually, it was possible the original person she had sensed had moved away by the time she opened her eyes. Shrugging to herself, Seika accidentally disrupted Aphelia, who was perched on her shoulder. With a scowl, the feline jumped down and padded off into a random direction.

    "Ah, hey! Aphi! Wait up!" The mage rushed after her bond mate, blinking in panic.

    Seri Banner
    Conviction never shames nor condemns us.
    It calls us back to who we truly are.
    Serilda stood on top of the hill beside Mythal, scowling out at the distance. Before her eyes, droves of people scoured the Unknown Lands in search of what, only the gods knew. Or maybe the Council. It was unsettling to be here, the mere proximity to Kingdom Darkness’ door bringing back a great number of ill memories and making her a little irritable. It was Mythal who had brought this expedition to her attention, and she had immediately cancelled all of her other plans to join him, knowing what lurked in these lands. What would happen if someone stumbled upon the door? What if there was another trap lying in wait?

    Sadly, she almost hoped there was. While she was more than happy to have played a pivotal role in freeing Mythal from Faera’s clutches and robbing the foul goddess of one of her four archangels, she was not satisfied in the knowledge that Faera herself still lived. It was only a matter of time before she reared her face and made another move. Serilda doubted this would be the day, as she doubted that any of this was set in motion by Faera or her minions… but that didn’t mean that someone wouldn’t stupidly and unwittingly provide her with an opportunity to strike, and Serilda was so on edge about that possibility that she was radiating with a very real chill from her magic that permeated the immediate area around her, causing all within a few meters proximity to her to see their breath despite the otherwise warm day.

    Mythal shifted next to her, staring out with as much distaste as she felt. Probably more. He commented on how awful it was to be back here, how the place kept coming back like a recurring nightmare. It was definitely interesting that it was the Council who had ordered the expedition. Many of the council members knew Mythal’s past, and several of them were suspect in the eyes of the two Rune Knight leaders as being possible dark mages hidden in plain sight. Unfortunately, they had no solid proof yet, and not all of the council’s members were under scrutiny. Many of them were innocent, and it could have been one of them that placed this request. There just was no way of knowing.

    It was a sure sign that both of them were under stress when Mythal was the one doing most of the talking and Serilda was so focused on brooding that she had almost nothing to say. She nodded her head in acknowledgement of his words, but nothing was voiced by way of her own thoughts. There was no point, not when the two of them were of the same mind, and she had far too much on her mind with it all.

    Eventually, he was able to shake her out of her thoughts as he started mentioning some of the people they knew who were in the area. Lilith was the first to be brought up, the Special Operative that was the elder sister to Serilda’s protege, Shen. Serilda had yet to meet Lilith, but much of that was intentional. While she respected the young woman’s talent and ability to get the job done, and acknowledge that she filled a very effective role within the Knights, her particular… skill set was not one that Serilda was overly fond of, nor was she a fan of Lilith’s casual demeanor with her peers and superiors. Mythal was capable of handling her just fine, so he agreed to be the main contact with her so Serilda wouldn’t have to deal with it, but that was only a stopgap.

    “Doppo,” she said, correcting Mythal on Chiyuki’s nickname softly as her mind was still far from being in the present, though she was quickly coming back to ground. “Yeah, I saw he had signed up for this, too. I think he took the airship.” It was possible Doppo would find her eventually, but that was a bit of a toss up. While the odd man was quite attached to her as one of the few, if not the only, person who had ever been understanding and respectful to his quirks and behaviors, he was more than capable of operating on his own and did not feel the need to follow her around like a lost puppy. Chances were if they ran into him it would be because he had an update, or they found one another by chance.

    Vandrad and Mercury were the last to be mentioned. They had been given this invitation as well and had opted to join in. These two Serilda did expect they would meet up with at some point, probably sooner rather than later. Her fiance commented on the likelihood of his brother’s excitement over this kind of venture, or lack thereof, and Serilda finally cracked a somewhat ironic smile. “I think he’d take manual labor over the rave,” she murmured.

    Finally, he addressed the subject they were both fixated on and Serilda sighed, finally relenting a bit of her rigid stance to lower her head and rub her face with a hand. “Yeah, I think it would be wise for us to stick around that area and make sure no one goes near it. The last thing we need is someone unleashing that with all these people right here…” Realizing that she was putting too much on herself, particularly when Mythal had more unpleasant memories here than she did, she looked up at him before gently taking his hand in hers and giving it a squeeze. “It will be okay. We’ll make sure of it.”

    With that out of the way, she did her best to keep herself out of her head, though there was still a slight scowl and lingering cold. “Well, where do we want to start? I’m sure Vandrad and Mercury will find us when they get here. I’m just not really sure what in the world we’re supposed to be looking for out here that’s of any interest besides that damn door…” Tapping into her Void Sense, she stretched the ability as far as it could go, reading everything within several hundred meters above and below ground at a molecular level in an attempt to see if there was anything of import or interest hiding from view.
