Throughout his life, he has encountered a number of disasters. He’s been able to put down most of them. The light of Heaven, once fully unleashed is a force no demon can withstand. He has wandered this plane of existence smiting evil—desolating the darkness of the land. His light has inspired an entire faction, a group of warriors who bear the mantle of virtue. Those warriors have dubbed him their leader, their founder.
He is the light of God, Uriel—archangel of the most high, vanquisher of evil, paladin of light. He is Neo. He is Neo, and never before has he ever come face to face with a threat such as this. He’s never seen an entity with so much power, especially in this dimension, and to make matters worse, there’re two of them.
He is forced to send a message. He is forced to enlist aid. The knights that follow the holy light are now needed more than ever. Maybe with their combined might, the chaotic threat shall be brought to rest, but just maybe.
What if, with their combined might, the chaos still manages to overcome? What if the chaos spreads, and completely encompasses this dimension. The two entities should not be taken lightly.
There, at the shimmering coast. His call has been answered. Already, two gather, but what of the others? What if they—no, have faith. They will come.

Off in he distance, Aa small cloud of dust could be seen. As the seconds ticked by, it grew larger… and larger. A minute passed as the sound of thundering steps could be heard… A few minutes later the dust giant seemed as if it would wash over the group of Holy knights, until it all cleared away… revealing a small girl.
Bent over, hands on her knees, Nina took in deep breaths. Her face was quite red, but, of course, that was due to all of the running in this heat, without water. When she seemed to have caught most of her breath, she looked over at the others apologetically. “Sorry, for being late.” Guilt dripped from her tone. Looking around, she realized not many were there at all. She instantly felt relieved… and then felt guilty for it. You shouldn’t be happy about this… big deal, you’re on time… maybe… Bad things are happening, so get serious. Biting her lip, she held her hands behind her back and found a seat on a rock. She’d best keep to herself unless ordered otherwise.

The dusty cloud had brought a frown on Gabrielle's face but she was more intrigued than concerned. As the mist dissipated to reveal a younger knight, about twenty or so, totally breathless.
Gabrielle raised an eyebrow and stood up at her apologies. She opened her her arms wide.
"I am not sure that you are that late." she said sternly.
The woman headed for her bag and grabbing her gourd she threw it at the younger woman.
"Drink." she said without kindness.
She looked or rather stared at the younger Knight. She was young. But age was not an issue, she was a young Knight. She had not been a knight for long.
She wondered how many more would come.
"What's your name?" she asked.

Nina turned brighter red from embarassment, rather than the heat, as she caught the gourd... almost fumbling. Biting her lip, she gave the woman a small bow and spoke a "Thank you, ma'am" before taking a drink and handing it back. "Um... My name is Nina, ma'am." She stopped there. Her last name might hint at her "angelic" ancestory, and she didn't want to explain why she hid her wings. She did wonder though. Is she always this stern? I hope it wasn't something I did to make her mad...

"Ma'am?" she turned to Tonas for a second and shrugged slightly, a light smirk on her lips. Gosh I feel old. She grabbed back the gourd. "I am Gabrielle. No Ma'am between Knights." She took a sip out of the gourd and then handed it to Tonas. "Want some?"

Nina was somewhat confused. No ma'ams'? Weren't rookies supposed to use something to show respect to their higherranking officers? She watched Gabrielle hold out the gourd to the other who was present, then couldn't help but ask. "Um... Do you mean no formalities in general, or... would you prefer that I called you 'sir' instead?"

Vinas rode his lightly red tinged horse down the coast, doing his best to avoid most the other knights, he didn't want to bother many people with his riding, so he rode at a easy trot, hand on the hilt of his ancient two hand blade, other hand stroking his moustaches in thought, having faith in his steed that he needed no reins.

Gabrielle gasped and raised an eyebrow. Was the girl pulling her leg or was she serious? She obviously seemed confused. She almost answered 'Do I look like a man?' but she decided against. After all she knew her features not to be the most feminine, that young girl was much more womanly than she would ever be.
"I mean no formalities." she answered slowly as if the girl was slow minded.
The woman noticed a horseman going up and down the beach. She looked at him. He was about her age but she could not recall having seen him before. She gave him a nod as he passed closer, although it seemed that he was keeping his distance with the group.

Vinas saluted his comrades, taking a moment to steer his mount slightly towards them, halting his progress a decent distance from them "Hail fair ladies, a pleasant evening to you." He said, doing his deed as a gentleman, greeting the women and giving a nod to their male friend.

((This is late afternoon - Don't forget Tonas, he is sitting right now lol))
Gabrielle looked at the younger woman to see her reaction to such a use of word. The new comer was of the old school and that was not to displease her. She saluted back. "Well met and a good e'en to you Sir." Now she was the one being all formal, Nina would probably be lost...

Nina turned pink once more and apologized. She would remember 'no frmalities.' Now that that awkward string of conversation was over, she was at a loss of what to do. She turned around, however, just in time to see an older man ride up towards them at a trot. He seemed to be quite skilled with riding the beast. She bit her lip and gave him a small nod to return his greeting, stepping further away from is path. I would hardly consider myself a fair lady... Wait. Did Gabrielle just use a..? Looking from one knight to the other, she put a finger to her lip in confusion.

Vinas dismounted the horse, never really getting around to naming him, he gave it a pat and bowed to the ladies "I am Vinus Solaminus, of the 3rd division" He said trying to stress he needed not to be of higher rank as he was content to be the warrior breed "And I have not gotten any of your names." He said feeling it polite to address them at least by Surname.

She watched him bow, introduce himself, and ask for their names. Eyes darting to the others, she wasn't sure of who would speak up first... so, not wantng to look like a coward, she spoke up instead. "I'm Nina, of the... third class as well. I'm... new..." Not that she needed to say the last part. N00b dripped off of her like water fter a dip in the lake.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, miss." He said, saluting again, as his chivalric code prompted him, treating a woman with utmost respect at all times.
