Welcome to Gaia! ::

Gwales Page of Pluto

When she felt the tug this time, Prudence was in a position to respond. Her work schedule of late had been positively insane, leaving her with no energy to transform into Gwales Page of Pluto and patrol, let alone answer such a call. But now she had both the time and the energy -- and the inclination; she missed being Gwales, to be honest.

So she transformed and Gwales found herself not quite where she expected. This didn't look like the amphitheater on Mars. But there were some familiar faces here -- Hvergelmir and Kairatos specifically -- so she settled in and listened to what everyone had to say.

She hadn't heeded Caedus's summons, so the direct assault on the Negaverse was all new information to her. As was what they had retrieved from there: a piece of the Code! Gwales stared fascinated at the artifact, corrupted though it was. There had to be some way of purifying it, of rescuing it. That seemed to be the topic of discussion. All manner of idea was being tossed about, from using these crystal things that Caedus had to getting Camelot to try to getting any Royal to try.

"If I may," she finally offered, standing, "I think it might be worth a try to push positive energy into it. We have a good number of us here. At worst, it doesn't work and we escalate, right?" She didn't know anything about this Caedus fellow anyway.

Hy-Brasil, Page of Earth

The strange tug was a new sensation for Gwen. It was certainly not something she'd experienced before but somehow she knew how to respond. After leaving the hospital after visiting Isaiah, instead of heading home, she left the car parked in the hospital's lot and strolled down the street until she found somewhere that looked safe enough to power up and answer the call.

Upon arrival, Hy-Brasil stood in the room with a bit of surprised look on her face. She wasn't sure what she had expected but appearing in a room of other Knights was certainly not it. It seemed that the conversation was already well underway and, unfortunately, she wasn't well versed in the problems that were going on until she finally heard someone mention 'The code'. Perfect. I don't know how much I'll be able to input but maybe I can learn about something here.

Eyes scanned the multiple people gathered already and only found one that looked familiar, Slievenamon. The squire appeared to be in the heart of the conversation though, and not wanting to interrupt she opted to not approach. There are so many people here and I only know one. I am not really sure what that says about me. Maybe I need to patrol more?

"It's worth trying." Kairatos nodded. He could see why so many people were suggesting a similar idea. It was a matter of pride. Independence, and suggested their own ability to weigh on on the fate of something that impacted their powers. Worst comes to worse and it doesn't work I'm going to look to you guys for Campfire songs so we can pretend it was all on purpose..

Failas he guessed hadn't seen Trancendents in action much, which was reasonable, come to think of it, they weren't that common, he just seemed to have met a somewhat disproportional number of them.

it was hard even to be mad anymore, and the anxious pacing at the start had vanished. He'd almost thought the hand in the dark... Havasu, Cetus, Phact, Venice... he'd started out feeling like they were an unusual, amazing anomaly, but the more this went on the more he saw a side of other knights he was damn well enjoying.

"It might be like Purifying, but we've never done it before, so it's hard to know. I don't even know what happened to the Chaos when I was purified, I... always assumed it was destroyed, or pushed back where it came from."

Oh that was a loaded question, wasn't it

"Because things aren't in balance, not even close, for a start. Right now... Chaos has the upper hand. Everywhere. And secondly... Senshi are order... Negaverse are Chaos... and Knights are supposed to stand in the middle."

There was an idea he personally still worked to come to grips with.

"Because this is them trying to tilt the scale even more in their favor than it already is. We can't... There's no way we can try and keep things balanced we're all dragged into the Negaverse, like the rest of their agents. It's also why there's some debate if a Senshi would be able to fix the Code piece. Their magic works too differently. And before you ask... we're fighting with order, again, because things are out of balance, though each of us..." He gave a brief glance to Hvergelmer "Chooses how to try and do that differently. But this... this isn't right. No one should go to their wonder and be told we should just give up and fly off into the dark, and that's what's happening as a result."

He chose his words carefully, because goddamn if there wasn't an urge to slap his forehead because to him of course it made sense, he'd been doing this a while. Not even as long as some but he thought he'd come to fair grips with the ins and outs of it, but that wasn't everyone, and in the micro-universe of Destiny City it was easy to imagine there were other people fighting the same battle elsewhere, but there were plenty who had had that terrible dream of an darker future that said this was, in fact, not the case.

"Long story short, yeah... best we've learned they're both supposed to exist in balance. Balance went out the window about a thousand years back when Chaos jammed it's thumbs on the scale and hasn't taken it off since."

Chauvet, Page of Cosmos

Chauvet had no idea who the guy with a bull's head for a pauldron was, but whatever his name, he was clearly a badass. The woman watched him speak with rapt attention as he wove a story of order and chaos and...sen-she? And Knights that stood between the conflict, she supposed that was what he was, in all the glory of his tattered cape and glistening armor. There was tension in the way he looked at the princess made of actual stardust, but that was just even more interesting, and despite herself the edges of her mouth began to curl upwards in childlike glee.

"This is the coolest s**t I've ever seen," the Cosmos page whispered, softly nudging her elbow into the nervous man in blue beside her. She managed to keep her voice below an excited shout, if only because she didn't want to interrupt what was quickly becoming C-SPAN for Asgardians. "Are you seeing this? This is badass."

Slievenamon, Squire of Neptune

Slievenamon pursed her lips to conceal her desire to smile in her simple dastardly way. She actually like the idea put forth: Seeing what Chaos would do the Code piece. The power of the Negaverse worked in mysterious ways and considering how the piece was pulled from the very pits of darkness, how would it react, let alone last, at the burn of Order's light?

She hated how her brain worked, especially when she was, as Kairatos so aptly put it, part of the balance between Order and Chaos. Now was not the time to be tempting that balance even when, she tightened the arms tucked under her diaphragm a little tighter, she was so delighted to do so. To collect her bearings, she saw Hy-Brasil, and stood by her as if she would somehow straighten out her muddled mind. She gave her a small smile in greeting before speaking up again.

"Mhm, that's what I was getting at," Slieve said to Celsus. "If energy works like a liquid, then it could be that simple. Or more difficult, since someone mentioned that even they are not sure where Chaos returns to come a purification."

Celliwig, Page of Earth

"He isn't. Still there, that is. Caedus. He's not." The page had been silent up until that point and now she was lightly tugging on the sleeves of her dress, brows furrowed over violet eyes and a frown on her lips. "He's still in Destiny City somewhere, but he's not where you all met that night. Some of us stayed behind," because some of them, herself included, had been late to the party, "and a senshi attacked him. He had to hide. He's still somewhere, but it might be harder to find him now. I had offered to take him to Celliwig, because it was still on Earth but he said that he would 'only find what he needed if he was in Destiny City."

Slievenamon, Squire of Neptune

Slievenamon's brow furrowed. Well that... was disappointing news. Not simply because they were possibly on a search-and-rescue for the cloaked figure, but someone had attacked him. The squire knew his plans did not sway in favor of many who were called to the meeting, but now that his life was in danger, he had every right to go into hiding.

Looking to the page of Earth, Slieve said, "Do you... know the name of the senshi who attacked him? And anyone else who vouched for his harm? We may need to keep an eye out for them. They may also be searching with the intent to harm again." She glanced around. "We... we shouldn't let anything happen to him, not until one of the avenues for purifying the Code is explored, at least."

Slievenamon quieted come Hy-Brasil's inquiry. While she knew the Code was important, she didn't know why. But when it called to her and several others from the Academy when they were in Negaspace, the squire knew one thing: It needed them and they needed it.
