She managed to get a message to Ida, asking if she could meet her and talk about transcendence noting Babylon said she was a good person to talk to. The tiny knight stood waiting on the rooftop of what was once her school, but she had now graduated from. It was weird to not be in high school anymore, even more so, she was going to college. No more uniforms or anything of that sort, no she was an adult, time to brave the world.
She sat down on the edge wondering about the eternal she was suppose to meet, then only things she knew were a name and that the other was transcended so she glowed like Babylon. She wondered if everyone glowed the same. We're they all walking around with a blue glow like the knight, she hadn't asked.
She grinned looking up a the night sky, not that she could see as much as when she was home of the farm, but it was still a comfort. "So much to learn, but I can do it," she whispered.

The message that came, appearing out of the air on a slip of paper, was rather unusual. A request to meet, to talk about Transcendence? It had been surprising, even coming with a reference from Babylon. Maybe especially because of Babylon. He was transcended, he knew as much as she did about it.
In the end, there had really been no question of wether or not she'd go. Someone wanted to talk to her, so that was reason enough. Hopefully she'd be able to help, even if it were just in some small way. Ida slowed from her easy trot when she got near the school, memories surfacing of her time here. It had been a good time in her life, when things had been easier and more straightforward.
There was the feel of a squire nearby. That must be Pharos, the one that wanted to talk to her. Taking a running step, she jumped to the roof of the building for a better look around. Serendipitous, because it seemed there was someone there.
"Ah, Hello!" Ida called as she caught sight of the figure in green and pink. A smile spread over her face as she lifted a hand to wave. "Are you Pharos? My name is Ida. You wanted to talk to me?"

Pharos felt the other coming well before she would have been able to see her. She waited patiently sitting atop the roof of the school eager for the senshi to arrive. She bet that transcendence for senshi was different that knight, but hopefully not vastly so.
She smiled hopping up when Ida jumped on the roof and asked about her, "Yes, yes I'm Pharos, Squire of Chronos ... " she said in rushed words her eyes wide as she moved closer to Ida.
"Wow," she said in amazement at the girl reaching out with small fingers in an attempting the glowing henna'd cheek. Even more amazing the Babylon and the glow went down her arm, not that she could see Babylon's arms. "You have more that him, does that mean something?"
She was full of questions and wonder at the subject itself. She wondered everything about it and its history. How did it work?

The blonde girl that jumped up to meet her was tiny, and adorable in her head scarf and puffy green pants. Her smile pulled an answering one from Ida, who came to a stop as the squire came to meet her. Surprisingly, Pharos seemed immediately entranced by something she saw and she was touching Ida's face before she realized what was going on. The eternal blinked, but she didn't pull away from it, watching wide-eyed as the tiny squire stroked her glowing skin. She knew the skin didn't feel any different, from experience, but she wondered what Pharos felt when she touched her. What was she thinking about, comparing it to? Did she like it? The wow sort of suggested maybe she did, which was something of a relief after her run in with Lenka.
"Him?" Ida echoed, confused for a moment who she meant. More than who? The list of people with glow was rather short... She had more than Camlann and Celsus, for sure... but it had been Babylon the note had mentioned. "Babylon? He has more than me, actually! I think his uniform just hides it. He said its all over. Mine just covers and arm and half my face."
The senshi waved at her cheek before displaying her arm and the symbol of Ida in her palm.
"I don't know why people get the markings that they do. It seems unique to the person and probably ties in with what happened to them. I noticed mine appeared where I was hurt, right before it happened. There was a half youma negaverse agent that smeared hot tar down my face and arm. The glow sort of burned that away." She shrugged, her hands falling to curl around the compact that hung around her neck. "Ganymede has a cut across her palm, and I think that is significant in her memories of her past life, but I'm not 100 percent sure."

Pharos gave a surprised oh when Ida said Babylon had more than her and she gave her a curious wide-eyed glance. "Do you think he would let me see them? This is amazing and they are beautiful like purity, if that makes sense."
She smiled and stepped back listening to Ida talk about her transcendence. She was intrigued by what she was saying. Pharos knew nothing of youma negaverse agents, so she was momentarily distracted by that. "Youma agent? I thought they were just monsters. You mean they can be agents too." She looked somewhat worried about that. "You got in a fight with one and then you transcended?"
She looked to the compact in Ida's hand curiously before speaking again, "Ganymede? Who's that?"

Pharos had a lot of questions. It took a moment to order them, hampered by the warmth she got when the small girl called her marks beautiful. They were... And she felt like she hardly deserved something so lovely. Plain designs would have suited her fine.
"Babylon might, if you ask nicely. Sailor Ganymede is one of my friends, and I could introduce you to her if you really wanted to meet her. As far as youma agents..." The thought was sobering and Ida's smile faltered, fading a little. What he had been had little to do with what had happened, but Pharos didn't need her sordid story of innocence shattered. No one needed that.
"Bischofite was a regular officer and then he tried to do something to the city that required mass energy draining and crystals. I'm not completely sure what he was trying to do, but it failed and the youma with him tried to take over his body. They ended up merged together... After, he had strange wings and could ooze tar from his hands. Half youma are horrible things, I think... They're not completely human any more and even if they want to purify, the youma parts won't let them. It's just another horror from the Negaverse and a horrible life for those people who end up that way."
"I don't think my fight with him was the only reason I transcended... There was a lot in my head at the time and I wanted to dedicate myself to my planet, so I said an oath that my past self said. It was what all Sailor Ida's say when they become the senshi and I really felt like that tradition needed to continue. No one seems to transcend in the same way... It's different for each."

Pharos was excited about this meeting with Ida. She nodded with when Ida said she could introduce her to Ganymede, "I would very much like that." She pulled a note pad and pen out of her sash and scribbled Ganymede's name down and a reminder to ask Babylon about his markings.
She frowned slightly at Ida's slight change in demeanor, quieting and listening to her talk and being surprised and horrified. Who would think they could get worse, but apparently they could and Pharos didn't think she really wanted to encounter one, still she asked, "are there more of them? Other than Bischofite?"
Her eyes went a little wide she said the half youma was maybe part of the reason she transcended. Maybe then they were worth looking into, but Pharos was especially wary of the idea. She smiled at Ida wanting to dedicate herself more to her planet and gave her a curious expression.
"Something like what a priestess would do, wanting to give themselves more fully. Things like that happen in folklore, maybe your planet just wanted to help you."
She was very pleased with the information she was getting on the matter, continuing to make notes realizing that she should take a look around her wonder and maybe spend more time there. She did love the place and we was the only one that could tend the
"What did it feel like to transcend? Did it hurt?"

Ida smiled gently at the comparison, finding herself nodding along.
"I think that's pretty apt. I'm all my planet has to represent it, and I do my best." She said as she watched the other girl scribble down notes. It was curious, watching her do it. Was she... looking to become like her? It wasn't a bad thing, the benefits to transcendence were many, but she really wasn't sure taking notes would help much. So far, everyone had reached it in different and unique ways.
"Um, well... it was sort of like a surge of energy from my planet. It... broke through some sort of barrier and then after, I felt a stronger connection to it. It didn't really hurt... it was just very intense." She said as she lifted and dropped a shoulder, remembering that day. "I felt the power spread out through my planet though, and it... woke up more, I guess. More plants came to life all over."

"We are the last right, those who awaken and revive our amazing universe. Unfortunately there is war with that, but hopefully in the future we will end it and we will be able to fully revive the universe." Pharos had no knowlegde of the bleak future that possibly awaited them, she hadn't even made it that long, losing her life before things had gotten so out of hand.
"Its nice to hear it awakened your planet a bit more. I don't think Babylon mentioned anything like that. I wonder how it works for wonders, or if it even they same."
"What your planet like? My wonder is a lighthouse with a courthouse built around it. Not much to wake up and it doesn't have any greenery that I have ever seen, the outpost do though." She wondered if any of the zodiac guard had transcended but she doubted the last one of them that she'd seen was Aquarius and that was so long ago.

"Ida is a small asteroid... It has less square miles than Texas, if what our scientists saw through the probe is true." Ida said as she tilted her head a little to the side, thinking back.
"I don't know how wonders compare to that, I've only been to Shangri-la once and I didn't get to see all of it. Its very green there, though. The whole asteroid's culture, what I remember of it, was dominated by plants. The buildings in the city are all made out of whole trees as big as skyscrapers and hollowed out inside for rooms and offices and things. The only things there are plants, at least that I've ever seen. No living animals, not even bugs, but lots and lots of flowers and all kinds of different plants. They're all wonderfully different colors too. There is something about the radiation the planet gives off that makes their colors change. Its not harmful to us, but it has a fun effect."
"A lighthouse sounds nice. Does that mean your wonder is on the ocean? Ida doesn't have any water except under ground, so the most I can find there is in the hole I dug as a well."
