In this city all the village buildings surround the castle and are protected by its walls, that’s why it is called Arvardia Castle rather than The city of Arvadia. Arvardia castle was a peace loving city for many years, This is probably due to there strong belief in the mighty summon Alexander. Until the city bared witness to the catastrophic event in which dark tail the kitsune corrupted by the fabled shadow orb brought destruction to this fare city. Left in ruins after the great struggle that took place here between that evil and the heroes that emerged. Even through all the despair and darkness the light of hope rose up, when the queen stepped up to lead her people to rebuild the city they once loved. The guilt that the queen’s heart felt weighed heavily on her; despite this she persevered to lead her people as their queen. Now the castle is built grander than ever. There was no shortage of supplies for Arvardia as the respect other cities felt towards the queen and the city gave them only pride in helping them in there time of need. Till this day even after the battle the Queen is still said to possess the ancient item of holy but no one knows for sure. Now the castle walls are higher and strong then ever, stopping evil from penetrating the mighty stronghold. some of the framing that built the wall still lays on the roof tops like a pathway system in and out of the cobbled streets of the castle. Main areas: The wall of Arvardia. The inner castle and queen’s throne room. Village market place, Arvardia village made up of simple homes and shops. non player characters Knights have entered the town and put up posters of recruitment.
Poster from Arvardia castle
To all that will answer we are recruiting all willing hands to the aid of the mist continent against the on coming attack of the mackina faction army.

The streets were lined with stalls and music filled the air it was a very different state to what it had been a year previously. Help and aide after the great conflict was not short of supply it was a show of what the human heart can do indeed never before had the people of this city been closer such is the bond in times of strife. The carnival of restoration had begun 3 days ago as the main castle was nearing completion. The building within the walls were not finished but livable the castle and symbol of the land had been the main focal point.
Kyanas story rebegins in this place that she had fought in a year ago this day during the festivities. Our heros name is not well known just as the other brave souls that fought as many that witnessed the fight do not wish to relive it and speak of mits attrocities. These individuals are merley called the nameless Heros within this land.
"Kyana you are up"
Asmall round man with a jolly look called out.
It was then that the music began on the stage. Slowly a platform lifted up from the floor displaying A woman surrounded by 4 dancers in cat suits. The woman was kyana but sshe was not as she looked before she looked slightly maturer and had anew hairstyle tied back in her black leathery clothes.
The 4 dancers jumped to different corners of the stage spinning to the beat and jumping and kicking in tune. Kyana grabbed her cape and flung it behind her revealing the claw it seemed to have grown and it now reached her elbow and looked like it was a part of her now. Intertwined with her from like a vine in the earth. She lifted its form and swund it over her head in an arc different elemental energys trailed from her finger tips creating a rainbow abover her. she quickly did several jumps and a cartwheel the show was electrifying and as she jumped balls of flame twisted above her. jumping back up she jumped into a pose legs and arms apart creating balls of elemental energy that floated around and intertwined with each other leaving intricate trails and pulsing with the beat. The crowd was extatic with her show. As the music neared its end her energy grew and there was a large number of different flips and spins. There were severqal lights that raised into the night sky that as the song ended and focused on kyana the form of the water phoenix lifted her off the ground and then she plummeted down towards the stage through a trapdoor that quickly closed and to the audince only a puddle remained and the dancers in the final pose that quickly walked off.

Kyana walked out of the back entrance to the stage fon dling a small bag of coins in her hand and throwing it in the air and catching it before placing it into the holster on her belt. She felt honoured to have been asked to perform and it was even better being paid over the past year she had done a little travelling but had not found that which she yearned for. She had visited her father who had been overjoyed aswell as crossing the mist continent to a dark temple that was almost completely lifeless only a residual of energy remained.
Kyana thought about the past year and to the future she hoped to eventually find him but had not even seen any of the other surviving combatants let alone him.
Slowly kyana walked through the marketplace before stepping into a small alleyway and sitting against the wall . Kyana was tired and needed the rest. She did not care for comport just a little rest and she felt at home under the open sky. I t was beginning to darken and kyana watched the stars in the sky wrapping up tight in the her cape to keep out the cold.

Kisaragi walks to gather the wood when he comes across a path...
"...Might go abit further today, im use to these areas..."
Kisaragi finds himself walking in to a feild then from the distance he hears music and people. So Kisaragi wonders in the general direction.
On entery to the town he decides to take a break in a near by alley...

Looking around Kisaragi decided to see the local lumber yard to see what the prices are.
"...maybe this wood might last a bit longer seeing as it is bigger..."
Kisaragi walks in and starts to look around...
"...hmm might need to make some money first, it was worth a try though..."
Kisaragi returns to the streets and on his way back finds this small ball of cape like material. Kisaragi walks up and pokes it with his nose...

Maki felt Shinja's hands covering hers when she came to even for a little while, she looked up from the wetcloth on her forehead. Her sides throbbed greatly but felt it was now dry. She also noticed the airship is faster than earlier before she passed out and looked for Zetsuei who she guessed was now piloting the ship. She felt bad about worrying the two men in her life.
"Shinja?" she said looking at his face and forced a smile. "Thank you and I'm sorry I made you guys worry. If I don't wake up just know I love you guys, please don't be sad for me."
Maki squeezed his hand before falling unconscious again.
******** dream sequence again *********
On the ledge Maki's eyes grew wide as she realized she wasn't alone and it appeared the firey lake was rising once more and began leaping from ledge to ledge to get higher and higher away from the rising firey lake and the creature swimming clearly inside it. When the firey lake stopped she leapt up two more ledges above it and looked into the lake. The creature resembled something familiar yet different. She was truely frightened.

The ship had made it to the Mist continent and not too far from the city around the castle. hovering above the ground the ship slowly landed as the landing gear touched the ground. Standing up and stretching Zetusuei walked back to the elevator and went back to the hallway where Shinja and Maki were.
"We have arrived at the castle"
Zetsuei said as he stood in the doorway of Maki's room

"hmmmm?"
Kyana could feel something nudging her.but she was unsure as to whatas she had wrapped up so tightly she lifted the edge of the cape to peek out and a nose almost poked her in the eye.
"Whoaaa"
Kyana rolled sideways and jumped to her feet seeing it a was a strange wolf like creature was unsure wether it was a monster or not. She had never encountered a creature like this before she had met the kitsune but they walked on 2 legs this creature walked on 4.
"What are you?"

On the ledge behind Maki, Shinja whispered in her ear. "Don't be scared."
Shinja suddenly woke up due to Zetsuei's announcement. He had fallen fast asleep after entering Maki's dream using an old spell. "We need to get Maki some help. Hopefully the castle's medical wing is still in tact..." Shinja stood up and looked out of the window. He gazed at the castle, which was covered in framing.
"Let's go."
Shinja gently wrapped Maki up in a fresh sheet and put her into his arms, carrying her to the elevator with Zetsuei. With a push of a button, the elevator shot down to the exit. Without hesitation, Shinja opened the door, the sunlight beaming into the small room where the elevator was located. "Arvardia Castle...I never thought i'd come back here..."

Maki held her sides tightly as she curled on the ledge to rest, then she heard Shinja's voice. "Shinja? Where are you?" she called out sitting up. Ignoring the pain in her side as the blackened blood began oozing again. She looked down and noticed the lake slowly moving towards her again. She got up and leapt from ledge to ledge while looking around for Shinja almost loosing her footing as the lake stopped. "Where are you? Please...I don't want to be alone." The wound didn't hurt as much and she felt lighter as if someone is carrying her but where. She watched as her feet left the ledge and she started floating and as she got higher she could see the firey lake bubbling where her blood hit the flames and was now rising even faster. "Where are you going warrior? Come join me? I don't want to be alone either! Hey! Who are you talking to? Come back!" said the creature who exposed himself from his firey sanctuary and shot his snake like body upwards to try and grab Maki. Maki's eyes grew wide as the face of the creature is very simular to DarkTail's face and began screaming when he grabbed her leg."LET ME GO!!!! SHINJA! ZETSUEI!! HELP!!!" she screamed as the blood oozed faster and dripping onto the creature who seems to be feeding from the blood ... her blood.

Maki began sweating profusely as her tainted blood began seeping from the wound faster, her skin was growing pale by the minute she opened her eyes slightly as she faded into consciousness again.
"Where are we," she asked reaching up to touch Shinja's face. "Am I dying? I thought our dreams are supposed to bring us peace when we die not frighten us ... thank you.... i can't thank you guys enou-"
Maki fell limp again as she swooned back into unconsciousness.

Kisaragi watched as the human rolled and took to her feet. Not flinching he calmly replies...
"...Good day to you, What am i?...i am apart of the Varg race. My name is Kisaragi..."
Walking up to take a close look at the human while having a good sniff...
"...and who might you be?..."

Though Shinja was still in Maki's dream witnessing the beast grabbing her leg, he did nothing but walk to the side of her and stood there looking into her eyes. "Maki...if this was my battle too, I would help. Unfortunately...this is your battle to fight, and it is only yours." Shinja kneeled down to her, still looking at her eyes. "I want to help you...but I can't. This form i've taken is even less than a dream form. You have to fight this beast...you're strong, Maki. You can do this."
Shinja stood up and seemingly walked away before suddenly, the large sword that Greed gave her dropped to her side, its handle right next to her hand.
"It's okay Maki...just rest. We've reached Arvardia..." Shinja stroked her hair a few times, gazing at her closed eyes. "Zetsuei, we need to get her some medical attention immediately. Do you know your way around here?"

Kyana looked atthe creature as it spoke in a sort of shock. She had asked it what it was but had not expected an answer this creature fascinated her it looked like a wolf but it was a fully intelligent wolf that could talk.
"Where are you from and why do you keep sniffing me. Do I smell or something?"

Maki nodded her head as she understood what Shinja was saying and stopped struggling. She saw Greed's sword fall beside her and grabbed it. Looking at the now fading Shinja she smiled and mouthed the words "thank you" and turned to face her demon. "Want company?!? You got it smokey!" she shouted with an awkward grin and struck at its arm as she tried to release his grip from her. Shinja's words gave her strength as a light blue aura began glowing around her body and allowed herself to fall into his waiting jaws as it opened wanting more blood. "Yessssss! Come to me give me the darkness you harbour inside you," the creature hissed. Opening its jaw twice the size of his head. "Give me your soul and join me."
