"Trust me, you don't want to know." Prophet said at the wizard, then he would look at the others. "I will fight with you, Aster. You have my word, that this city will not be one of the Ruin's victories." Prophet said, putting a fist to his heart, a salute to his kind. "I will help in the rebuilding. After all, they can do only so much." Prophet added, looking back at the wizard.

"Any form of help would be greatly appreciated." He bowed respectfully. He turned his head as though he heard something in the wind. "I must be going now. I am quite busy. Please. If you need me. You can find me in the guild of wizardry." He bowed again. "Thank you so much heroes." He would hobble of swiftly with his staff.

Aster nodded to Luna's suggestion. Once the wizard left, she turned towards them. "We should head there immediatelly, to asses the situation." she said, wanting to get through this with haste. "Since the city is short on supplies, there is not much we'll be able to do in terms of supplying ourselves for combat... we'll have to go the way we are." she said. Aster was hoping there'd at least be a shop open where she could buy armor, since he realized in that week her elven clothes were hardly fit to take hits.

Prophet nodded at the wizard, watching as the man walked away. He would look at the others, and groan. "You are right. You need armor, weapons, and food." Prophet said, then his gaze would travel to the guards. He scratched his armored chin in thought, then looked at aster. "The guards have armor and weapons. Perhaps we can 'barrow' some from their barracks." Prophet said, looking over them with a critical gaze. "I don't need armor or weapons. My suit keeps me alive, so I just eat for the food, not for the need to eat." Prophet said, trying to lift Aster's burden.

Ariana looked at Propeht, "I have to make my own armor and weapons I cannot simply just 'take' someone else's and we don't have some of that. Besides, I won't feel right 'borrowing' something without someone's permission."
Luna nodded, "I agree. But perhaps we could ask the guards who we could go to for permission?"

Aster nodded to Luna's suggestion. "Definitelly, it would be rude if we didn't" She looked around and quickly spotted a guard walking around, supervising the citizens. "How about that guy?" Aster was already heading off towards him, stopping before him. "Excuse me sir. My friends and I are travelers, here to assist Orion with the raptor situation... however we lack basic necessities to go into combat, since we just returned from a gruesome battle... Do you think there is any chance we can borrow some soldiers supplies? If only for a while." she asked.

The private turned around to face her. He seemed nervous about everything, but he swallowed his nervousness. "You can find the captain at the wizards guild. He is discussing strategy at the moment. The wizards guild is also the new base of command for the guard. So if you ever need to ask them of anything. That is the place to go."

Aster nodded. "Oh, I see..." she said. "Thank you very much sir." she said, not wanting to distract him from his duties. Aster then ran back to the group. "He says the new guard base is at the Wizard's Guild, they're discussing plans. I imagine you know the direction Luna?" she asked.

Luna watched as Aster went to ask the guard then came back to tell them what he said and stared at her a moment as she thought about it. "Ah, I remember now." She smiled, "Its been awhile so I had to remember, but I believe it's this way." She pointed down one of the streets that looked the most cleaned up and began to walk forward a little. "It's all the way down this street and to the right I believe, unless they had changed it since the battle."

"Oh, okay." she said, following Luna since she Knew the streets better. Aster looked at the intricately designed buildings, noting their unique beauty. "This must have been a beautiful place..." she said.

Prophet let out a throaty growl, scaring off the curious. "I don't like the look they're giving me. It seems like they expect me to attack at any moment." Prophet said, looking around, seeing the looks in the people's eyes. "It must've. This place was known for it's beauty in my home land." Prophet said, seeing the buildings. "Just so you know, if you see any of the Ruin raptors burning, don't worry. It's just me." Prophet said, seeing the guards were either looking around or standing still.

Luna nodded, "It was a very beautiful place indeed, its saddening to see what it had become. But," She sighed, "I'm sure it will be beautiful once again once the Ruin monsters had finally been defeated." She turned to the right onto a side street and straight ahead the Guild could be visibly seen. "Well it's definately obvious that this is the most used building."
Ariana walked silently behind them all, listening to them talk, then looked up as they seemed to arrive at their destination. And studied all the soldiers moving about.

In the Corner of Ariana's eye. She could see a silver wolf standing tall and strong. It was close to nearly 6ft tall. It's tail waving as though brushing against a wind. Though it's stare was focused on her. It looked up to her. As though it had something to say. Though when a crowd of people walked past. It would be gone with the wind. No trace of it's existence. Not even a print of it...
Gaurds stood at the front of the guild. The all seemed quite weary as controlling the elementals beside them, along with the stress of actual combat for such a long span had depleted their energy reserves. Mentally, magically and physically. Even the elementals that they controlled were showing signs of stress as each corrisponding elemental had the same stress signs as their owners. Blackened eyes. Sloppy postures. Weakened positions. They weren't ready for an attack of this scale at this time. It was obvious of that much.

Ariana thought she saw something at the corner of her eye, something like a very large silvery wolf standing tall and looking directly at her, but when she turned her head to look at it it was gone. Was she seeing things or was it real? She stood there staring at the place where it was, before turning again to catch up with the others.
Luna paused for a moment, looked at Aster and Prophet, then turned to look at the guards standing with their elementals. They all looked exhausted. "Poor things." She looked to Aster, unsure for a moment, then turned to the guards, "Excuse me, we wish to have a word with your commander, could you tell us where we might find him?"

"The commander is dead. We have no leadership, no one to guide us. The wizards have taken over, but they work us to the bone. None of us have slept for two days. We're sentinels of course. Though constant use of our elementals is straining." The guard would sigh. "What is your question? I am certain that my word can get you inside. I am the most senior sentinel."
The wolf cut Ariana off. Though like some sort of visage. It's form blurry. It examined Ariana. Finally close enough to speak to her. "You made it... I am glad." The wolf looked back to the group. Then back to her. "I noticed your all still tired. The stress is adding up, and you all have nothing to fall back too." The wolf would sit down in front of her. Back turned to the group. He only allowed her to see him. He was an experienced ghost before, so he could choose who saw him or not.
