Welcome to Gaia! ::

Benjamin was saddened but perked up quickly once their mother gave them one of her trademark kisses on the head. "If you really think that Mom, then you need to let go too you know." He chuckled lightly.

Benjamin did the same as Fara, he kissed his mother's opposite cheek. "We'll even bring back a souvenir, oh that reminds me!" Reaching into Nina's bag, he held up the Forge Hammer. "We found this on our travels! It's another Irrigan Original, mom."

Benjamin handed the weapon over to his mother. Then he turned his attention to Turada. "I'm confused by what you mean myself, Turada. Was this just an Irrigan design, but produced by someone other than great grandpa?"

Benjamin's curiosity for it spiked once more. So was this was their great grandpa's smiting hammer all this time? "It's not an Irrigan Original I guess, but it's definitely an artifact of our family if it was used to make the weapons. I'm going to use it too then, I can only imaging how it will affect the weapons I make with it."

Elric nodded his head to that. "I agree, let's get a move on." He responded, with that said he began making his way out of Lirria's room. Benjamin began to do the same, raising up the hammer in his hand with a childish grin. "We will mom, and when we do, I'll be making weapons as good as grandad, you'll see" He said, the moment would bring memories back to Lirria, of when Benjamin was still just a toddler. Of how he told her he would make things like their grandpapa with his toy hammer held up in his hand.

Once outside, they all noticed something very wrong. There were bodies of guildmembers sprawled all over. They were unconscious, but the point remained, who did this to them? Well they wouldn't have wait long once armored warrior was tossed at Nina's feet covered in greyed crystal.

It was Connor, who was walking towards Nina. His eyes were blank once more, just like the day they first met. He rose up his bad arm and said. "Let me touch you..."

"G-Guys, who is this weirdo?" Asked Benjamin.

"This would be the male crystal child named Connor. You know, the guy Nina's been seeing. Still want to make those jokes about Nina?" Elric asked Benjamin and Fara. Getting a quick shake of the head, he prepared his dual swords. "I didn't think so. The two of you stay out of this one. He's too unstable."

"I need you, in order to be whole." He held onto his bad left arm with his right. If only she understood how much pain he was in. Suddenly, his arm produced a tri-bladed weapon centered in the palm of his hand made from crystal.

"And he's learn new tricks since last time, just our luck. Are you up to fighting him Nina or do we retreat for now?" Asked her cousin Elric.

Elric nodded his head and started taking people into the guild. "Okay, just call me when you need me." He said to her before leaving.

The blade in Connor's hand began to spin as he prepared to throw it. It sailed in the air, it's target being Nina.

The blade was relentless, curving in the air and coming back around for a second strike. It would buy Connor a bit of time to charge at Nina without having to worry about her blades attacking him. "I must, devour you!"
