  Misora smiled at the woman and looked over all her potions. "Did you add a few new types? What do they do?" She asked excited, she was grinning ear to ear. Shamira only leaved in the village for a year efore returning to her home, then she would come back after a year or so. She had come back late this year, and Misora had missed her. Shamira laughed and ruffled Misora's hair. " Well, this one makes you hair turn purple," she said pointing to a small orange bottle, "this one makes a stomach ache go away," She sad pointing to a clear one, "And this one..." She went on like this for awhile. Explaining each potion and showing Misora what it looked like. Misora listened carefully and happily.

After Mitsuki was finished in the armory she came out again. Once she spotted Misora with Shamira she smiled and walked over to them "Shamira! Its been a whole year already?" She asked.
Shamira laughed a bit returning her smile, "I hope so, or else I came back early!" She said, then squatted down, "I have something for you..." She said trailing off as she opened the storage section under her cart. She withdrew a bottle with a deep rich amber colored liquid in it and handed it to Mitsuki when she stood up again.
Mitsuki recognised it immediately and a tear came to her eye along with many good memories. "Thank you, She said, pausing to think for a moment, "from the D'elvernaught village?" Shamira nodded and Mitsuki's smile broadened as she hugged the other woman. "Thank you for keeping your promise." She said, then put the bottle into a pocket.
Misora watched this all in bewilderment, she didn't know what that potion was, or what that village's significance was. "Mitsuki, whats that potion for?" She asked tilting her head to the side with a small frown of not understanding.
Mitsuki smiled at her little sister and Patted her head. "Its just a drink my mom and I used to share. I haven't had it for a very long time so I asked Shamira to get some." Shamira had a straight face while Mitsuki said this, but Misora didn't notice.
"Can I have some too?" Misora asked, but Mitsuki shook her head, before mitsuki could say anything Misora interrupted her, "Why not?"
"Because if anyone that isn't elvish drinks it then they will fall asleep and not wake for a hundred years." Mitsuki said in a theatrical voice, then the two of them laughed.
Shamira watched them smiling, "It must be nice to have a sister... or even a family that cares for you so much..." She thought.

 We all must be cautious now. The barrier around Northeast Sanctum is weakening. These sages that live with me can now longer continue to hold on to the immense power that are struggling with each other in the other side.The Mayor explained as the paced back and forth. It was Dark, Heyen and the members of the SDD as well as other occupants of Sanctum that were gathered around the empty room of their mayor.
It was a circular room, small but enough to fit the one that had been summoned. For days the mayor explained to them about what they can expect to happen. Such as: Sanctum residence becoming over populated, unexpected situation and battle auras that might flare out through the city - most likely from fight due to oppossing forces. And if that wasn't enough..
Added to it was the gate at his own village becoming unstable. Dark's duty as the one and only residence (aside from when he brought Inukai there) was to keep the balance of another realm separate from this world. Over the years he has been successful to the point he had been so lax to disobey responsibility and disown the gate itself, leaving it unguarded inside and outside. From his village's perspective it would be seen that the gate would be closed but behind those steel walls forces were accumulating and constantly tearing at Earth's dimensions. Luckily Hell Demons refrained from taking rise (only because the rip was too small for them to get through) but if they wanted they could force their way out. Dark had only come to the conclusion that he had been waiting for something.
As the mayor continued to speak about the threats of the Hell Gate and the Northeast Dark took spot at one side of the room and went Omniscient to observe what was happening within Sanctum. He had understood then what the mayor spoke of interference. His Omniscient was disrupted by some force, constantly causing the image to fuzz around like a bad T.V.
For the remainder of the days Dark had continued to try to force clarity. At the cost of deep concetration and over use of his Aura he had succeeded only to keel over for an hour or so without finding anything out. When he woke the mayor was still talking and he wasn't sure if they noticed. He didn't care.
The rain had stopped, and the dark clouds were finally over; gray cloud now taking their place with cold drafts blowing often - an odd thing for Sanctum at this time of year.
The meeting was finally dismissed and Dark was 'ordered' to keep the Hell Gate closed and to seal any dimensional tears. Though Dark wasn't one to be demanded of anything it was for the people of Sanctum (though he would never admit it) and had simply nodded. Heyen was to return to his tavern and make sure that nothing went wrong there, and to be the eyes and years within his district, which is where the other members were to share in. The SDD were to protect and monitor."...I've been lazy.." Dark grumbled, slowly riding his Dragonboard through the skies as he watched beneath the Sanctum streets with absent eyes. "What's going on? What is..this?..Dark exhaled as he watched a tear in the dimension twist and deform itself. Through it were waves of flames flailing wildly while another wave of power seeped out. It tricked fear in his body, and he knelt immobilized by the feeling. It wasn't just one power but many.
More tears ripped through the dimension and before he knew it the rip tore open and he was run down by swarms of demons..I won't let there be another repeat. I know what I have to do.. He thought to himself, his vision finally clarifying and he stopped in the air. Beneath him were two familiar faces. Misora and Mitsuki. There was another female but one he didn't recognize. He might have seen her before but he could not recall. No one important to him.. "What are you girls doing out? Enjoying the lovelyweather?" Despite the dread it offered many people Dark rather enjoyed the feeling. He lifted his head as he descended further down, his eyes heavily concetrated on the slowly moving clouds. His brows grew heavy with the faint feeling of melancholy. The edge of his lips twitched with a faint grin before he turned his attention to the girls and hovered over a puddle of water, the energy he was using to fly causing ripples in it. He turned towards the dark-haired female, and a rather attractive one he couldn't help but realize. "Hmm..I recognize your face but I don't recall a name."

 ~ Ski ~
╔═══════════════════════════════╗
She was wondering the streets now. Learning the lay out and what was what and what was where. The whole city was a sight to behold. Ski had never been in such lavish city before and the profits that could be made here would be great. She was liking this place already.
Not to mention how she would get more peace here then she had anywhere else. Peace was something Ski, a demon-ef cross breed got a lot.
Walking past a stall that had a punch of fruit on it, Ski eyed it hungrily; her stomach growling. The merchant was busy smiling and speaking with another customer. The man never even saw Ski stride past and see her snatch up a pear. Strolling on like nothing had happened, Ski bit into the juicy fruit; fangs effortless piercing the soft skin.
Her destination unknown, she people watched. Catching a group of people that were standing in the middle of the street yakking away.

The three smiled at Dark. Shamira spoke up, "I'm Shamira. Its not that surprising, considering I migrate yearly." She said with a shrug. She preferred not to be remembered, it made her life a bit easier. She knew about Dark though, and respected him. She had only had the pleasure of speaking with him a few times. Misora spoke up next, "Do you know why the weather's so cold?" She asked, then added off topically, "And I learned a new ability." both she said with enthusiasm and happiness. Mitsuki chuckled. "Actually my sister and I were out running errands when I ran into my old friend Shamira here." She said. "How has your day been going so far?" She asked him. Shamira remained fairly quiet, preferring to listen and learn. She had been gone for a year, she wanted to know what all she missed.

"Shamira.." He muttered as if it would trigger a memory. Of course it did not. However he felt no menacing aura around her so he could call her friendly rather than foe. When Misora spoke to him he turned his attention down to the nymph. "Oh..that's..g-great.." He stammered, not knowing how to react to her new power. His enthusiasm was always low. "And It's..just that strange time of year. We're having this odd climate change because..." The hell was he supposed to say? He knew Misora was intelligent but she was still a kid and he didn't want to bring any worries in her mind. Later on he would peak to Mitsuki though. Even Shamira. "..there's this, what is known, as an 'ice cloud'. Of course the clouds above us don't look blue or icy but that's the cause of it. It'll get warm again soon..then cold again..Hmhm." He chuckled as he ruffled the girl's hair. He did always treat her somewhat of a child."And I see that you two are spending quality time together. That's always a good thing." Once he was finished messing the nymph's hair he turned to both Shamira and Mitsuki, his eyes stern and serious as they always are. That would be the best way to get a secret mesage across. "And whenever either of you are free I would like to speak to you." He paused. "Oh, and Mitsuki.." He added and turned to the elf, "I think Heyen wants to speak to you as well. He's probably at the tavern by now.." His voice trailed, and he looked past the three girls to another individual. "...." I don't recognize her. Way to act suspicious.. He thought as he continued to stare at the oddly skin colored female. "Any of you know her?" He asked, motioning his head to the black robed female.

Misora didn't like that Dark was trying to trick her, and frowned, but didn't say anything. She'd figure it out soon enough. "I've already learned all the different types of clouds... I know I'm short, but how old does he think I am?" She thought. All three glanced over to where Dark was refering to, Mitsuki and Misora shook their head, Shamira just shrugged. "Not like I'd know her anyways, I haven't been here for a year..." Shamira thought. "I don't know her, but thanks for telling me about Heyen. He probably just wants to see how I'm recovering, we were going to stop by anyways." She said smiling. "When Misora's at school tomorrow I'll be free if there's anything you need to dicuss with me." She said. Shamira looked back at the blue haired girl, "Hmm... looks like a cross breed, elven and something else... possibly demonic in nature..." She thought, trying to place the girl's race. It might come in useful someday if she didn't to transform into one. She looked back at Dark, "I'm not busy now. I doubt any customers will come by if your talking to me." she said. "I think I'll let them talk... besides, I know how much Heyen must be worrying by now. I hope nothing else has happened..." She thought with a frown. "Well I think Misora and I will swing by The Dragon's Nest to see what Heyen wants. Good bye." She said with a small smile. She took Misora's hand and started walking to the Dragon's Nest.

So one one knows her...huh? He thought still staring at where he had seen her. If anything where to arise then she'll be easy to track. But I'll keep an eye on her. His eyes returned to Mitsuki and he nodded. "That's good. I'm sure Heyen will tell you the same thing, if he brings it up, but I'll fill you in on any other things that he might not know." It wasn't that Dark knew more but he did notice Heyen's behavior during the meeting. As time went by he seemed to grow tense and at times he had become unresponsive. When they had left Central Sanctum Heyen was the first to leave. When Shamira spoke he turned towards her with a nod. "Probably would be the best. Maybe you could help me out by informing your customers." So many people to inform. Why did the mayor have to bring him into this? Once Mitsuki and Misora spoke of their departure his attention returned to to them both and he nodded. "Alright. Be sa..fe..--" how that felt so awkward to say. But they were gone. Maybe they didn't hear him. "..Anyways. Shamira, was it?" He asked. "I'll try to keep this short, and I'm going to need you to inform me of any suspicious patrons or people that you might come across. The thing is, as you might have noticed or not, and as Misora mentioned, the air is getting pretty cold. Of course I lied about the clouds. Fact is the climate change was made through the mixture of energies and powers from creatures that do not belong in this plane. As I said I don't recognize you all too well and I don't know if you know Sanctum's history. Linion should have informed you but sometimes he does skip that crap." "Sanctum was targeted by what we call "Hell Demons" long ago but the majority was sealed within Northeast Sanctum, but now the barrier there is weakening and demons and other beasts willbe seen in the city - so be wary. Not to mention the barrier outside Sanctum was taking down so if you see any wild animals or beasts - kill them. They are a danger, and not friendly. Also, do not head into the mountain. If anything it's more dangerous there than it is here - I'll handle that.." He paused, and then looked at her shop. "...You work on potions?"

╔═══════════════════════════════╗
Walking passed them it was effortless to hear them. Ski's keen elven hearing matched with her demonic, she could hear a pin drop a mile away if she concentrated. So in a busy street just a few yards away, there was no problem with hearing them.
Biting into the stolen pare with her fangs, she turned her head to the group of them. Her eyes hidden beneath the hood, but that didn't mean they didn't feel the glare she was giving them.
"Didn't your mothers tell you it's not nice to stare?" she droned in a half hissing tone; her mild anger heard in her voice.
With that, the teal haired girl, turned on her heel and made her way to the Dragon's Nest...a tavern she'd been hearing about while she roamed the streets; pick-pocketing all the while.

Shamira listened intently on what Dark had to say. "Hmm... Hell demons huh... Don't think I've heard of them before. But it makes a lot more since than a new type of cloud. Explains why everyone's been on edge since I got here. If it weren't already so bad, I'd head back. But I think the route I took got closed..." Her thoughts were interrupted when Dark asked if she worked on potions. "Hm? Oh, yeah. I make and sell potions. And I can warn my customers for you, if I get any. I don't see that many people shopping on a deary looking day like today. Can't really blame them now that I know why the weathers like this." she said with a shrug.

She's ruder than me.. Was the his final impression of the newcomer before she left the streets. "It wasn't long that this happened. And it was sudden, but I'm sure you'll be getting customers soon enough. Depending on the potions many people might turn to you for aid.." His eyes never strayed from her shop, scanning every detail. "So what is it exactly that you sell, Sham? Herbal or something?" From what he could see she had a decent selection on display. and being his curious self he couldn't help but pick out different colored potions. Some were dense, others weren't so. "..What's this do?" He asked, lifting an orange bottle. "Reminds me of orange soda."

Shamira smirked watching Dark go through the potions. "He reminds me of Misora. Curious and not afraid of touching my stuff." She thought, amused at his child-like behavior. "I sell most types of potions. I've studied potion making since I was young so I can make a large variety of potions." She said in response to his first question. She snorted when he mentioned the orange potion looking like soda. "It turns your hair purple. Though from what I hear it tastes a bit like orange soda too." she said with a shrugg. She could make it flawlessly, but didn't quite understand its taste.

"..Purple?" He repeated in what seemed disgust. Who would want their hair purple? "Well at least it'll taste good.." He thought about it and realized that probably many would want to do so. But picturing himself with purple rather than brown was just..unsettling. He shuddered and put the potion back where it was. "That's rather a strange potion to be making but I guess some people would buy that." He lifted other kinds of potions before putting them back down. "You wouldn't happen to have something to help me sleep would you?" He wasn't planning to use it soon but at times when he did want to sleep he couldn't. This was for future use whenever Sanctum's troubles were resolved. Hmph..I speak like it'll be so easy.. Of course that was not the case.

Shamira nodded at his request. "I have more than a few to help with sleep. She said, then placed three potions in front of him. She lifted the first one up, it was a light blue color. "This one takes a few minutes to work, and will knock the drinker out for about 6 or 7 hours. she paused and set down the first. She lifted the second, a light purple color, "This one takes effect instantly, but works over a half an hour. At first you'll feel a bit drowsy, and it increases until about a half an hour later you fall asleep.", she paused, again setting down the bottle and lifting the third, which was a silver and dark blue color, "And this one takes about five hours. But, it will put the drinker into a sleep for a month. A full cycle of the moon to be precise." She said, then sat it down. "I think the light purple would suit your needs the best though." She said, and yawned. Cloudy days usually made her a bit tired.
