Lanius stared, obviously counting and thinking about it in his head. "Yes, that sounds to be about the approximate. Avarice has some major advantages, irreguardless, we have some ourselves."
Kirai, when Edward said thank you, suddenly felt calm. Her face could not help but show shock. No word could come into her mind, just.... almost a small glint, like someone lit a candle in a room that had not seen any light in so long. Bloody, bleak, drawn out, but... peaceful. Just then, snow started to fall all around them, landing in Kirai's hair like little white crystals. So.... as I remembered right, life is better than death. Atleast, I can give people life... but not like Avarice. Her thoughts turned bitter at that, but at the same, a sweetness from it.

Edward noticed the snow, and turned to check on Kirai. Seeing the snow in her hair, he couldn't help but smile at her. "Lanius, how much do you know of Avarice's wereabouts?"

Lanius didn't bother looking back, but instead, kept his eye on the castle. "Just on a hunch, I would suppose he has been around dead bodies, sacred places, graveyards and the such. Banshi, seeing the kind she is and that she is still alive, probably has information on Avarice's wereabouts. Mimicry as well, and what was that girl's name... Phantom? If she is still alive." He smirked slightly at this, thinking of how nicely personal revenge, that of two women, was working for something actually good, or decent at least. Kirai mentioned Phantom to Lanius actually, while he was recovering after being revived. She told him why she was personally involved, besides for the fact of Avarice being her ex-husband and her murderer.

"Of course, my sister could have just that information. At any rate, we need a logical course of action, and an army of our own. I know each and everyone of us are good at what we do, but I don't fancy fighting at odds of 100 to 1, or greater."

"Oh god." Salazar said with a sigh. "I remember Phantom. We don't play nicely. Then again thats pretty much the same with everyone." He kept walking, enjoying the brisk temperature. "So wait Edward, does this make me one of the good guys?"

"If we take down Avarice and his sister, the rest will be easy to terminate. I really do suggest we contact Banshi, even if she can only loan ourselves herself and one other, or maybe two, it is a starting point. I would find it unbelievable to think she has no connections. It will be impossible to keep all this information quiet from Avarice, the more people we get involved. But as I said, we contact Mimicry and Banshi first, as well as the Latverious and Idolian clans." Lanius spoke quick and to the point, then looked at Edward to see whatever his response to this and whatever his ideas may be.

"That sounds like a solid plan. I suggest that you get to work on it right away." Edward walked through the castle doors. "As for me, I think I will go ahead and contact my family and get all of them heading this way. After all theres a good ten of them who are more than willing to help out. And yes Salazar, you are one of the good guys, so get used to it."

Lanius stood outside the door, and turned around and waited for Kirai, and they both walked inside, taking off their cloaks.
Lanius responded to Edward, "Yes. I shall get to work on it right away."

Edward walked over to Kirai. "I would like to talk to you in private if you don't mind. I have some.... questions."

Kirai looked at Edward, and said, "Yes, of course." Walking over, she closed the door they came in from. With her cape off, you could see her corset and long elegant dress, which had been brushed of dirt and only showed slight signs of having been out in the weather that day. Her posture was still perfect, and she still moved and walked with the same graceful movements. Leading Edward down a grand hallway with ancient paintings lining the walls, stained glass, and flaming torches lighting the way, she wondered to herself what questions he wanted to ask. Although part of her was dreading this, she felt this had to be done, and thus was looking forward to it. Leading him into a smaller library, done in deep reds and violets with velvet cushioned furniture and gold candle stands with all the hundreds of candles around them lit, she motioned one hand at a place for him to sit in a chair across from another one, located in the back of the room. Their shadows cast upon the cealing in the most interesting of manner as she motioned for him to please take a seat.

Lanius walked up behind Salazar and said, "Lovely attitude, Salazar. But let me guarentee you, they have important and unsettled buisness to attend to. For now, I wish to assign you the task of going over all of Avarice's old experiements... or for now, you can accompany me to my room, then we may head out to locate Banshi and Mimicry, as well as Phantom." His voice was almost commanding as he said this, yet in a calm and melancholy way, as he always said things.

Edward followed her, and he knew just right where he was going. He spent quite a few years in this library. Edward waited for her to take her seat, before taking his. "Kirai, tell me exactly what you meant by you need me, when you summoned me back to his world."

"Fun. Fine, but let me make it clear that I am not your subordinate. You assign me nothing, I do it for my own personal interest. Show me to the room." Salazar said moving to stand at Lanius' side. "Who knows maybe this might be fun."
