Welcome to Gaia! ::

There something that seemed off by it, then again the General was crazy so maybe it all made perfect sense. Still, as a logical person, Lin thought the whole thing was just off... the General was so much into power it seemed weird to let the two marry even if he took their first born.

"Hmm... it doesn't make sense, but he is crazy so I can't really say much on that," Lin admitted.

Miyuki decided a change in subject would be good.

"So, since we're waiting for Kyrie, why not set up a tent and show our friends what this tent business is about, we have to set it up to even use anyways, might as well do it now," Miyuki suggested.

The tent was the one Senka had been hidden in and Miyuki went in just to check on the Fluffy Cat. It was sad the two didn't spend as much time together as they use to, but Senka wasn't really a people person unless it was for certain people.

Upon hearing Iadrim, Miyuki poked her head back out of the tent.

"Yup, or at least until we all get into the city. Come on in, there's plenty of room, I promise," she had a mischievous look on her face.

The inside was very spacious, perhaps the size of a very large living room. Which was made even more spacious by the fact there was no furniture. It had to be since at most every tent had to hold three people. In addition, Shiro and Andarien had to be able to set up their respective work stations, while Miyuki knew her tails created a need for enough room for her and whoever was rooming with her.

"Take a seat anywhere," Miyuki motioned, "It's good thing these had to be big enough to fit small work stations, otherwise I don't think all of us would be able to fit into one tent."

Though they could just set up another, there were at least three with them.

Lin explained quietly, "Kyrie has gone to see a contact that might room the rest of us, as for how we're going to get there. Kyrie said to use the dragons to make it look like the homes were attacked, this way no one will question the soldiers' disappearances, and hopefully allow you and your husband back into the city without question. As for how the rest of us will get in there..."

She nodded to the tent that the girls were in.

"We're going to use a bit of magic, we use these tents for traveling, but they're much bigger on the inside than the outside and folding them up and closing them won't affect those inside the tents."

"Runes, it's a type of magic," Miyuki explained taking a seat beside Iadrim, "My grandmother and grandfather are very good at it, and I decided to take it up too after seeing my grandmother rune a bag for my brother where he could put whatever he wanted inside."

It was the start, and Miyuki did have more of an interest in magic than anything else she had learned growing up. Despite not being fond of the sciences as the Gaians called it, she liked the logic problem solving that runes gave her.


Lin agreed with this, "Very, but at this point there aren't many opinions it seems..."

She wished there were more choices, but with Earendil captured and the General searching for them, what else could they do?

Miyuki mused as she was trying to think of the best way to explain.

"In this case... I used the runes to... create a bubble so to speak, a space that exists here but not quite here. I know, that sounds confusing and the first time I read on it, I was very confused."

She pointed to the entrance of the tent, to the tiny runes that lined the door.

"See those writings, those are runes. In this case when you went through the tent door, you went into this space, which is connected but not really to that entrance. So if someone on the outside were to take down this tent with us inside of it, we wouldn't notice anything except we can get out until the tent is pitched again. This is because when someone takes down the tent, they are closing the tent entrance, the entrance to this space."

It was always a head trip considering making these runes didn't take a huge amount of energy compared to teleporting someone from one side of the world to another. Shiro thought it had something to do with quantum mechanics but that was a theory that even left Anderian's head reeling afterwards.

"Besides," Lin murmured quietly, "I don't think this is going to go on for much longer, it just can't."

By searching for them, the General had forced their hand, even though them coming to this country had forced his first.

Miyuki paused and then thought about it, she knew a lot about these types of runes because they were her first. Then she smiled, a wide sort of smiled and the laughed because she imagined someone trying to sneak in that way.

"It would just be a small tent with no one inside, a very small tent," she grinned, "Really, all we need is the entrance."

She supposed if she cut out the front of the tent and placed it on the ground she could fall into this space too. Though that would look really weird to people, making it a tent would be less brain breaking.

Lin tilted her head, "What prophecy?"

She wondered what they had meant by that, Lin wasn't one for prophecies, but being Gaian, you would be a fool for not paying a bit of attention to them.

"I know.. it's kind of confusing," Miyuki chuckled, "I don't really have a good way to explain it even though I've been studying them for a long while now."

There was a lot she still didn't know, but she kept on working, because she liked to puzzle things out and make things that could be helpful. Even though she doubted this is exactly what she would do for a living.

"Which still leaves a lot open to interpretation," Lin admitted, "I mean, he doesn't even have to kill the General himself, the fact the brain washing from my understanding didn't work at all, just could also mean that Cael could just provide an opening to those who want the General gone."

LIn shrugged and admitted this was the reason why Yukito had always told her to take visions with a grain of salt.

"Though this is a chicken and the egg sort of scenario, after all if the General had not taken in Cael at all, this probably would have never set him up to be the one to 'end the rebellions'."

She hated prophecies like that, they were generally annoying because they came about as the result of someone trying to turn the prophecy to their favour.
