Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Good enough, draw some blood from the dead guy then drag the knife down the staff I'll do the rest" Air said holding out her hand.

Blood magic? Draxis thought to himself bitterly..she was definitely up to something. Considering the power she could use with only a droplet of his blood, the magic couldn't be used on the staff. He needed a ruse, and quickly. "Personal request of mine first. I'd rather use one of my own blades t'cut the bloke. See, blood's quite potent as a source of magic...It always helps to keep m'blades recharged." He laid the knife out on a nearby desk, rubbing the bridge of his nose with two fingers. "You know this tower better than I, Air. Be a love and nab m'swords off Jayrus would you?"

''My name is Jayrus. Thank you again, Myia.'' He smiles, turning and heading to the tower. Upon arrival he was intercepted by Air'gen. ''These are for Draxi-'' Is all he could say before the swords were swiped. Shrugging, he makes his way up the tower, following her.

(( All with knowledge of magic knows that animating object can be done in several ways, one way is to bind some sort of spirit to it, this gives less control of the object but uses no magic after it's creation. One can connect the object to a source of magic, both magic items and magicians. This gives complete control but requires a constant flow of magic. A third way is to make the object a magic items programming it to do certain things, this will make it robot-like in it's behaviour, and it can both be charged with magic or be connected to a magic source. Chargin it will give it a certain lifespan, and will require it to be recharged now and then. ))

(( I would like people to not in their next post where they are, and it would be nice if people could be more specific with where they are, in their further posts ))

(( To those who are familliar with the use of magic, one could try and connect themselves to the staff in order to figure out it's functions, but this is not unsafe as some magician program traps into their items, in order to make sure they don't fall in to the wrong hands. This can be avoided in many ways, the most common way, is to have another magic item, programmed to protect the magician from harms way, but this will never be 100%, as there's always some way to either trick the wrong hands, or trick the security system of an item ))

Draxis watched as Trajedie silently escaped with the staff. Unfortunately, being unable to communicate meant there was no rendevouz point, and with the town apparently blocked by a forcefield, escape would be harder. Air would be returning any moment, and with nothing to fight her with but a knife, Draxis decided the best course of action would be, once again, trickery. Sighing softly, he threw himself into his surroundings, books and trinkets spilling onto the floor, before hurtling into a bookcase and remaining on the floor.

Draxis winced, turning over. "She tricked me..Daft cow knocked me down t'minute my back was turned." Slowly, he staggered up, sheathing his blades. "We'll have to give chase, you're right. My swords can locate her source of magic..we'll have to be quick to get that betraying cow." He held a single blade out in front of him, running out of the tower. Of course, he'd lead Air the wrong way, buying the other elf more time.

Trajedie smiled as she seaarched for a good place to hide with the staff. Then she would find a way to get Draxis to join her. She smiled as she moved from rooftop to rooftop. When she reached the rooftop that was farthest from the tower in the direction she had gone she sat down in the shadows and tried to think of a good hiding place.
