Ever since the mess with the Code and the battle at the tea shop, Erebus had been going on more and more patrols. Said patrols were also getting wider in radius as well. This evening he found himself patrolling from the rooftops near a convention center. From where he was he could see some banners advertising a future convention though he wasn't paying a lot of attention to what kind it was, as his attention was on the people walking around instead. As he scanned the pedestrians his mind wandered back to what the Code had said a few weeks ago and how the Knights were meant to keep balance. That still puzzled him and so far he hadn't been able to figure out just what it had meet, nor find anyone that might have an idea on the words either. As he pondered this he started to move on to the next area on his patrol, having seen nothing out of the ordinary by the convention. Sleet Tempest Snape Sorry that took me a short bit to start, family distractions ^u^

Since powering up, and now being able to better protect his family, he had been powering up a few times a week in order to go out and hunt youma. He'd been attacked, as a civilian, twice and he didn't want to let that happen to other people. So he went out to kill them, even if he couldn't kill them all, he was taking a few off the streets and if not killing them than he was at least sending them off hurting.
He'd never been much of a fighter and his weapon did nothing, it was equivalent to a feather duster, but he had no problem in starting to fight if it meant helping people.
Tonight he was working on another part of the city, his phone in his hand and gps app up so he could find himself and know where he as going. Being as new to the city as he was he was rather prone to becoming lost. Not knowing anyone didn't help matters either, as he had no way of contacting anyone, aside from Aurora, to assist in finding his lost self. So the app came in handy and that's what he was looking at now as he stood under some trees as he let the shadows provide some cover from the people wandering about. He had heard there was a convention center near by and was curious about it, since he did like to cosplay and was planning on doing so this coming convention season. Natsuko-neko It's ok, rl happens and it wasn't that much of a wait. I hope this is a good response. ^_^

As Erebus was heading into the next area, he felt an energy nearby that he slotted into the fellow Knight category. He paused in his roof hopping and after a moments thought, heading towards the energy. He was curious as to whether the other Knight was someone he had met or seen at some point at one of the Knight meetings. He knew it was a good chance that it was no one he had met before since he only knew a handful while there were many, many more from what he had heard and briefly glimpsed at meetings. Once he got into an area he thought the other Knight would end up crossing, he paused and looked around to see if he could spot them. Sleet Tempest Snape Yep, it's good <3 Hope this was ok

He too had felt it, a signature which told him someone else like himself was here. This someone also wasn't more powerful than himself, not that they were as new as he was to everything though. As he stood there, no longer looking down at his phone, he wondered if this new person would come toward him or leave him be? They weren't a danger so he wasn't too worried. Though that didn't mean they'd get along or anything either.
It seemed they were closer but...he didn't see them. Stepping out of the shadows he decided to perhaps investigate himself. he wasn't opposed to meeting others and perhaps making some friends, he could actually use some. But more importantly it would be a good idea to make connections with other knights. So he headed toward where he thought he was sensing the signature and soon he saw them, they certainly stood out though he suspected he stood out more given the vest he wore in the middle of January.
Standing at a distance, but facing the other, he paused for a moment before raising a hand to let them know he saw them and get their attention.

When he did spot the other Knight he tried to think about where he had seen him before. Though he couldn't recall him as familiar, when the pinstriped Knight waved he waved back then started to walk over with a small smile. "Patrolling as well?" He asked when he was close enough. He eyed the symbols on the others outfit but they were unfamiliar to him and he made a mental note to ask him soon. Sleet Tempest Snape Sorry, family pulled me into watching movies ^^"

Watching the other knight approach he wasn't surprised when the other finally spoke, better to talk when closer than yelling at a distance - more polite. "Yes, and you?" His voice was low and heavy on the accent, but the English was good. He'd been working on it, plus such a simple sentence was easy enough for him.
Looking the other over as well he wasn't sure where he was from, but he was new and didn't know what options there were, he knew of a knight from Earth and he knew Polaris was with one from Saturn. He knew where he was from also but where was this one from? Maybe Saturn also...that same h like symbol was there.Natsuko-neko That's fine, I had to help put puppy down for a nap.

"Yes. So far I haven't noticed anything amiss, have you?" Erebus asked after giving a nod to the other Page's question. After he asked though he paused and then gave a slightly belated introduction. "I'm Erebus of Saturn and yourself?" Probably when he got back home later he should use the ring upgrade to see if there was a list of symbols of the different Knights have.

"No, nothing." Nothing that he could tell anyway. He could be wrong, could have missed something. But he didn't feel anything energy wise, aside from the other anyway. "Venice of Ganymede." Bowing his head to the other, rather than offering a hand to shake. "It is a pleasure." He had been right in the guess, the other was a Saturn knight. Erebus...where did these names come from? he knew his own and he knew Camelot but what about others? What were knight names based on if anything? Were they random things or places?
"I am new to this - you?" He asked after a moment, unsure if he should even ask. He was curious though and did want to honestly know. It would be good to know others and to know who had experience and who didn't, who had knowledge and who didn't. Who was useful and in what ways.

Ah, so that's what that symbol stood for. It was pretty interesting that the other Page had a name of an actual place with in this time though. Before this he had only met Knights with names more from myths and historical places. His own name was a mythical place after all. "I've been powered for about a year now, though I haven't been active most of that time." He said with a slight shrug. "Have you gone to any of the information meetings?"

"Meetings?" He asked curious. How many knights were there? And they had information meetings? That was a good thing, it was something he'd have to find out about and attend the next time they had one. "Just powered Christmas eve." He said, he was new to this unlike the other. So this knight had been involved in this for a year, he had to have experienced a few things even if he wasn't active really.
Raising one hand he brushed his hair from his face, even if it didn't really work, he just moved his hair a bit so it wasn't directly in his eye. "Patrol together?" He asked after some hesitation, unsure if he should ask or what the other would say to the request. it was just that he was new and still didn't know the city and this area was really new...as evidenced by the cell phone, open to a gps app, in his hand still.

"Yes, occasionally some of the more experienced Knights call a meeting to Olympus, a Wonder on Mars." He was surprised just how short of a time that Venice have been awakened but it made sense seeing how last meeting wasn't too long ago and he would have known about them. "Have you been to your Wonder yet?" He gave a small smile at the question and a shrug. "Sure. Have you gotten into a patrol path yet or still getting used to it?" He asked and glanced around briefly to check the area.

"Oh! Olympus...is real?" yes another place, like Camelot, that he'd heard of but had never thought real or possible. Camelot he'd heard of from his friend, years back, who had liked fairytales, myths, and stories like that and hadn't cared what country the story had come from - he'd read it. Olympus however he'd heard of in a history course and on tv somewhere when he was growing up, it had been along time. But this place was on Mars? Why on Mars? Shouldn't it be here near Greece? Maybe a question for another time.
"Yes, I've been to wonder." And it was an interesting place, very interesting. A theater, though it needed a lot of work, it was a nice place and one which he planned to visit whenever he could find the time. But he was interested in these meetings, especially for networking and information. He hoped there was one soon, something he didn't voice.
Confusion filled his dark eyes before he shook his head and held up his phone, showing the gps app he had up. "New...don't know my way. Exploring..." And trying not to get lost with the help the gps would provide, he'd be able to find his way around and find his way back home. Everything was in Korean but it was obvious what he had on his phone.

"Yes, amazing how myths tend to have truth do them huh? It just turns out that some of the places are in space rather then on Earth." He said with a nod. He got a brief smile when Venice said he had been to his Wonder. "It's exciting to go into space isn't it?" When the other Page offered up his phone to show him, Erebus leaned in just enough to see the app and nodded. "That's fine. I did something similar when I started out." He then gestured to the direction he had originally been heading before he had veered off. "One of the tricks I found out was to pick out places that you can use as landmarks, sort of like if you are learning your way around around while driving."

So the places...were real but just not on Earth? How had they made it into stories, legends, and myths here then? he'd have to ask, but not tonight, he had a lot to find out and learn but not all at once. It wouldn't do to overwhelm himself in information, as he was sure there was a lot to take in. There was time for him to learn the answers to all his questions, or at least most of them. The time he felt he'd have, it didn't seem this war was going to be fast, it seemed like it would drag out. After all there weren't people out in the streets shooting each other or bombs going off so no high rate of death and it seemed to be a slow thing, something with people creeping about in the darkness who may or may not cross paths and kill each other or something - #slowgoingwar.
"Or a new city." Which was just what he was doing. Letting his hand, phone in his hand, drop to his side he looked over to the other and motioned for him to lead the way. "New city, new country. Need app." He said while giving a small smile. At least they had such apps and he could find his way. Landmarks would be helpful as well, the app would give him the name, and he could remember the site and what was around it. He hadn't thought of that, thinking of just relying fully on the technology in his hand.

Erebus nodded with a smile then started to start out, keeping a even pace so they could still talk. "I see how that can get confusing fairly quickly." It must be a handful to take in at once if Venice had to deal with being new to the country all together while getting used to being a Knight at the same time. "If you need help on that end, I don't mind showing you around." After his offer he then thought of something else to ask. "Have you found your Knight ring yet?" He then showed the other Page the ring he had on his right hand. "It's a very useful way of communication"
