((*Claps* Hinge jaw X3 I agree with the Clem idea, too.))
Farfarello hadn't made any indication that the rock had hurt (such as saying so or rubbing one's head), though when has it ever NOT been painful to have a rock lobed at your head? He didn't want to give these... children any satisfaction at all.
The demon didn't quite register Hashmal's words, as he was far too busy contemplating Perrault's remarks. Perhaps it was time to confront the elf, "Perrault," he said, "they didn't throw the rock at you. They threw it at me." Just to clarify, in case it wasn't obvious enough.

((But... why? The story begins with Aria riding along with her sand skiff... and then she sorta-kinda... not really runs over Dakon... and he joins them. He should give the tutorial. Besides, I know more about Dakon then you guys might think, and I believe he is the best man for the job... Maybe Clem can teach about using magic and whatnot?)) ((I like her head, actually. I've always a little curious about how she looks under that... AWESOME helmet... Here, I'll post the pic of Hashmal I drew.)) ((  )) -----
Perrault frowned.
"...Fine." he said, frustrated, "Can we just find the princess and get out of here?"
----- Raedou's hand shuddered at the little girl's touch, but he did not pull away. He touched her chin with his finger and gently pushed her head upward at his expressionless metal face.
"Would you..." he asked quietly, "like a flower, little girl?"
This was the first time Raedou had actually interacted with a human for any purpose other then to sell them goods from his caravan... but that was in his merchant years. This moment moved him deeply. -----
Diine slowly walked to Aria, twiddling his thumbs.
"Umm, excuse me..." he said, "It's... getting dark, and the Horde are inactive at night... Do you mind if we... stop and set up camp?

((Oh good you finally posted it 3nodding ))
"Yes." Farfarello agreed, and was about to bellow to the entire crowd for the princess, though something told him that was a bad idea. "Where do we start?"

((Who said the Horde are inactive at night? ...Insects, right. KNOW YOU THIS. NOT ALL HORDE ARE INSECTOID.
...All hell will soon enough break loose in Rantuinne. It gets a lot worse before it gets better.
DAY-U-U-UM. It might just be the color talking (is not), but your drawings beat the ship out of mine!
Also, for the tutorial... it should be broken into sections. Like in FFX. But Clem knows nothing about magic. But it's always useful to have a strong character along with a weak character for tutorials and such. Hence, Dakon and whoever. Raedou doesn't use magic until he meets Perrault, right?
...Maybe we can do some explaining, between Ephlas, Perrault, and Raedou, to poor Farfarello who is as of yet inert in the field of magic, during an easy battle. That makes sense to me, whereas Dakon could explain fighting to Aria and/or Vinn. And so on and so forth. That's not an order. Just a suggestion.))

((Indeed... I could not wait.))
Perrault shrugged.
"Well," he said, "her name is Callisto... Let's just call her name and see if she answers."

((Thank you, my friend... but most of what I learned, I learned from Hayato.))
((Raedou always knew the Tor Borot spell... it just doesn't get revealed until he is attacked by Perrault. *god, that sounds wierd...* How about this, then?
-Dakon gives the tutorial on combat techniques.
-Clem gives the tutorial on using items and such.
-Raedou gives the tutorial on special abilities.
-Ephlas gives the tutorial on using magic.
-Cedric gives the tutorial on HP, MP, and status effects.
How does that sound to everyone?))
((So... they are not all insects? That helps with the bestiary... a bit.))

The child touched the flower, but only returned her hand to Raedou's larger ones, taking one large hand in two small ones.
"Th-thank you, sir."
~
Ephlas led Clem and the Nesk through the deserted city, straight to the center of the stone labyrinth: the Ring. Inside, was what you might expect of a castle, except that no works of art adorned the walls. The cold floors were not padded by lush animal furs. Ancient tapestries did not hang from hooks near the ceiling. Lovely-scented candles did not burn bright, nor did their scent permeate the air. No brilliant glass uselessly but with dazzle filled any empty window spaces. Of expensive, valuable vases, sculptures, statues, and beautiful glass stands encasing exquisite jewelry on velvet pillows, there were none. No fire lit the many hearths. No chandeliers were lit high above, as the ceiling towered far above the height of man. The corridors were empty of sound. Only the soft padding of worn shoes and the nearly inaudible clicking of insect mandibles from the trio, along with the unconscious girl, could be heard throughout. They were... alone.
Of Deep Magic, the castle contained the absolute least of any other part of Sunclipse. While the Floating City had not before been a very populated place, it was still impossible to journey to the Ring and walk its halls without seeing some sign of life. Or, it had been, until now.
The Ring was... empty.
~
"Leave them be," Dakon said, waving off Diine's concerns, "and take your rest. It does us no good to tell the pilots how to ply their craft."
((Those tutorials sound good to me, though I don't remember if that's the order the characters are introduced or not. I have a few points to lay out.
I. Ephlas can use elemental magic if you wish... though his special abilities, such as the Liquid Blade, should still exist. I find that I really don't care and that you probably know a lot more about what you're doing then I do.
II. Not every character has to be part of the main party/character/whatever. Some of the main characters can still be NPCs, and do not fight (at least not in actual game battles, but still follow their storylines).
III. Yes, but why would Raedou be explaining a tutorial to himself? xDDD

((>>" Right. But if we organized it just right [like I've been painfully trying to do], then wouldn't it be a movie of the princess and Jaeto running away from Favraes to Eopia, and then showing Raedou writing the letter and leaving and that would be the first scene? That's how I imagine it, anyway.))

((You've been trying to make Mythicaa into a movie...?
rofl
So, I've thought about making it a book.
Kaye is trying to make it a game.
Hayato wants a movie.
SPI... I hope you don't want a play, or a musical, or something. *snickers*))

((Sorry, Z, it's already being written by yours truly rofl ))
((Mythicaa the musical. The very thought.))
((However when the book becomes oh-so amazingly popular [as I expect it will or will be very disappointed] and they make a crappy movie out of it, I will be happy to throw popcorn, shoes, grenades, etc at the screen and yell "[character] would never do that!!"))

(( XD Okay! Let's comb over this another time.
Saying in order of appearance!
-Cedric
-Dakon
-Clem
-Raedou
-Ephlas
No character will know every magic spell or multiple magic spells. Each character will have his/her own special ability, a unique set of techniques that no other character can know. For example...
Ephlas will have the special ability "Arcane." This ability provides a wealth of unique spells not found on my Spell Diagram, such as the Mercury Blade and any other abilities he will use in the future or has used in the past.
Raedou will have the special ability "Tor Borot." We all know what this is, but I am adding a twist; Raedou's Tor Borot will "level up" depending on how much he uses it and enable him to use new forms of the spell, much like Tidus's Overdrives.
Dakon will have an ability called... well, "technique" most likely. Z, if you think of a better name, let me know. Dakon's abilities will be similar to that of Auron's from FFX; things like Mental Break and Power Break.
Does everybody understand?))
((And Raedou did not write the letter; he read it. We can discuss scenes later on, but right now I need MUSIC, people!))
