Ksi looks at Spike a little surprised, and then just smiles gently.
Yeah, sure, I could definitely try. However, I make no promises that it’ll be possible for you. I’ll have to test just how strong you are, and if need be, I may require you to gather more power. However, if your capacity is large enough, then I will show you how to do this.
Turning to Antoni, he responds calmly.
Sometimes it can be very unnerving, have no misperceptions. However, we do what we can, and hopefully it will be enough. Spike, we can discuss the matter of planes-walking further in just a bit if you’d like, after I’ve had a drink. If you want to go ahead and spike that soda with something Antoni, I wouldn’t mind, thanks.
He patiently waits for his drink.

~becca~fae~ She quickly feigned puzzlement as Antoni made his last statement. Had he heard, had she said to much?! She tried to keep the cncern off her face by joking around.What me not being strong enough? Well thanks a lot. I'll never come to you for encouragment, but thanks all the same. As it is he earned it, fair and square. As did his father before him, and grandfather. I am the only one who hasn't, and probably never will. I'm not so sure if I even want it anymore. My father is probably having etheral agony right now. Strangly enough that brings me some satisfaction. No, not your strength, I guess I misunderstood another statement you made...don't worry dude...nothing offensive. *He looks at Spike strangely when he mentions the status of his father.*Ooh...that isn't a very nice way to put things but if you feel he earned it, you would certainly know better than an outsider. Still is sad to hear anyway. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ksi Turning to Antoni, he responds calmly.

Ohh...your drink...sorry...I got caught up, hang on. *Since Ksi had requested a drink be spiked, Antoni pondered sticking Spike in the glass but decided this would only be funny to him. Chuckling lightly, he went behind the bar and poured up a jack and coke. He then carried it back to Ksi.*There you go. Sorry about that.

*So far Nikki had just bee listening to the others. She zones out again, this time a strong feeling comes over her. She shakes herself out of it and gets up off the stool. Finally figuring out why she kept slipping into subconciousnes lately, she dismisses herself from the company of the others quietly and slips out the door, murmering to herself.*
"Something is coming to visit..."

Grem had a natural ability for staying out of the way. As Antoni came round the bar to make the drink she simply moved aside.
"Sorry Antoni I could have helped there"
She laughs softly
"although it realy isn't my buisness. I probably don't realy belong behind the bar . Do you know I havn't the faintest Idea what any of you are talking about? "
She shrugs and smiles warmly
"you don't live in my world at all. What's a plane how do you walk it?"
She sighs "oh dear I'm not at all sure I realy want to know..It's just like having Eva back ...sooo confusing"

I am thankful for whatever you want to do but you don't even have to work if you don't want, not like there are a ton of people here. But thanks for when you do. *Antoni nods about the planes discussion and nods in agreement with the last thing that is said.*Just a sec and I will explain. *He completes the drink delivery and returns to Grem.*When you said "you don't really live in my world at all" you are right, that's the basis for this. Alright...you know that there are different places like the cities here in Gaia and even some other countries. A plane is like an even bigger measure of places, it is the place in which all of those countries reside, neither myself nor Ksi nor Aykon are from a place anywhere near Gaia, we live in a whole other "plane" and to walk them is a highly dangerous magical thing like moving through a wall you can't see to arrive at the other side of the mirror. That's the best way to explain it. Although, rest assured, I wasn't lucky enough to get any nifty powers like my bro...for all extents and purposes, I am a normal person like you. I just have two family members who do have abilities.

Thank you, Antoni.
Ksi takes the drink and happily begins to sip at it. He also notices Nikki excuse herself from the room, as he casually nurses his drink. As Gremlina spoke, Ksi realized that he barely even knew this girl. He had seen her around, however, and figured it’d be awkward to introduce himself now. He then listened to Antoni’s response to Gremlina, and nodding, he decides to add a little himself.
What Antoni says is correct, however, the true scope of a plane is much larger than he’s letting on. A true plane is all encompassing, basically meaning it’s the entire universe. Antoni and I come from an entirely different dimension. Antoni’s metaphor for planes-walking is good, but yeah, it’s just a type of high level teleportation which can transfer you to alternate dimensions. He’s right though, it can be very dangerous. One misstep and you could falter into the Astral Plane, or even worse, The Plane of Chaos.
Turning back to Antoni, he asks him a question.
You mentioned another enlightened relative, who might that be?

Ksi Turning back to Antoni, he asks him a question.You mentioned another enlightened relative, who might that be? Well...it is typically the first male of the generation that has abilities of any sort. Supposedly the Silvers history is rich with magical history. My grandfather had magic himself, although not like Aykon's. His father before him - each of the oldest males - is the one who is responsible for the ahem...curse...that is part of why Aykon's not here right now. However, my father didn't get magic because he was the middle child. Supposedly my elder uncle got some powers and used them to makes lots of money in the magical entertainment field but I don't know who he is or was.

Gremlina nods her head as she listens
"Hmm ok well I can follow that but the next question bothers me and I don't want to come accross nosey or rude"
She shrugs lightly and shakes her head
"Why?.. this universe.. this place."
she waves her hands about
"Its huge.. more than I could see in a hundred life times. More things to learn than i could possibly ever find out Why would you want to go to another universe when its so dangerous"

More things to learn than i could possibly ever find out Why would you want to go to another universe when its so dangerous" Well...the reason Aykon travels between here and there is to protect the people of each place. As for why did my family move from Portland, OR, USA in the planet known as Earth...I think my family just felt it was a better place than Earth...I can already tell you...uit is hard to find a place that is worse than Earth.

Ksi looks sideways at Antoni, a bit confused by his responses.
Worse than Earth? I can name tons of places worse than Earth, believe me.
He then address Gremlina.
The only real reason why I originally came to this dimension, was to see Aykon and his establishment here. Other than that, planes-walking is only dangerous if you don’t know what you’re doing, or aren’t careful about it.
He then looks back over at Antoni with a curious expression.
So, what is this curse you speak of?

*Finally Synge made it back outside the tavern. Stopping near the door she caught her breath and rested for a moment. She didn't want to run into the place gasping for air. After taking a few deep breathes she was feeling good so she entered the building. It felt cooler inside and she was glad her sweater was still tied around her waist, she would probably be cold soon. Looking around she saw that most of the same people were still here, and instantly took notice of Ksi. Walking over to a stool, she noticed that there seemed to be a conversation going on. Not wanting to interupt she sat down quietly, but offered a smile to anyone who had noticed her enter. For a moment she thought of just going up to her room, but resting down here for a bit sounded better.*

Ah, well considering I have only been here, Earth and our home in the Osiris Republic, Earth is by far the worst place I have lived. But you have seen much more than I. *He hears Ksi talk about this establishment and then he shakes his head slightly*Really? You only came here for this? I would have sworn Aykon told me differently in his story about "How He Came to Gaia." He told me that on a routine mission, you and he found Gaia by accident and liked its peacefullness so much that you came back and so did he until he founded this place. Maybe my bro was bluffing all this time. *After being asked about the curse, Antoni takes a much more reserved attitude.*I would rather....not talk about it...it is rather personal... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Synge *Finally Synge made it back outside the tavern.

*Rhodes had been keeping quiet and busy despite herself. She wasn't really in the mood to be social today anyways.She didn't mean to eavesdrop but when she overheared Antoni talking about the curse and that being why Aykon was gone, she didn't know what to make of it. At least it was an explaination, right? After letting out a deep sigh and popping her neck she continued to scrawl on her papers.*

Ksi had expected Antoni to tell him about this curse he had mentioned, but instead he seemed to either being ignoring the question, or trying to change the subject…or perhaps he just hadn’t heard him. After Antoni stops speaking, Ksi makes a curious expression.
Actually, you know, it was something like that. Heheh, I guess it had been so long I had forgotten. As I recall it now, I had chased Damien, my adversary, here. He had come to form an army, but thankfully we were able to thwart his plans. I guess what I meant to say, is that I only RETURNED to see the establishment, heh.
Noticing Synge’s arrival, he smiles pleasantly.
Well, good morning there. How are you today?

Still is sad to hear anyway. Heh, don't worry about it. Dad wouldn't much care and well neither do I really. I mean thanks and all for the words of encouragement and concern, but what's done is done, and no use of crying over spilt milk, yeah know? So you're from earth to then? How do you like it there?
