"No, most men don't know it's evil." The armored man said. "And before you ask, call me Night Shadow."

Euphrates's eyes wandered to the hole again. The dark-streak-person was there, along with another person probably about a year younger than Euphrates. A small crowd was beginning to gather.
She glanced back at the dancer, waiting.

Daisuke sighed. "Ack! What do I do to get money around here!?" He then paused as he heard the name. "Night Shadow? Is that you're real name? Or is it a cover up name?"

"It isn't my real name. I don't remember my real name." Night Shadow said. "I suggest you stay away from here."

Krow-13 Euphrates flinched. The fact that there were tigers turning into people didn't help the situation. Things were weird here. Perhaps the stories of the swords, then, might as well be true. As Myeikura moved forward, Euphrates flinched again. The grace with which she moved seemed almost inhuman. Euphrates released the hilt, as asked, but she remained tense. Euphrates felt low compared to Myeikura. Euphrates was dirt-streaked and barefoot. Her clothes were a simple green t-shirt and earth colored shorts. She was bony. Myeikura was thin, too, but she was slender. There was a difference. Euphrates was suddenly disgusted at herself. Why did it matter what she wore? She had nver before cared for what or how she dressed. Myeikura must've had somehow made her think this. Then, Euphrates realized that Myeikura must've been a dancer. Euphrates remained wary. "It depends. I might not answer at all." Myeikura looked at Euphrates and then turned sideways and pointed to the castle before them," Could you tell me...what is so special about this place and why everyone is coming this way? Could you answer that question for me or must I search for someone else to answer it for me." As she raised her hand to point at the castle the cloak that was hitched to a ring on her finger and then draped down behind her and connected at a ring on her other finger blew gently in the slight wind that passed and it looked like fire. All Myeikura wanted to know was answers. She had many questions and knew that no one would be able to answer them all even if you she asked a million different people and they all had a reasonable answer to each question there would still be questions left unanswered. Her people tended to stay out of wars and battles and if anything bad happened the elders of her people would try to keep it away from the others as to not to worry them. Though her people were a force to be reckoned with they hated to fight.

"You don't understand. This evil has a long reach around the world." Night Shadow paused for a second. "Do you know of a weapon called Soul Edge?"

Dasiuke Shook his head. "Never heard of it.. Wait! Let me guess! by the sounds of it, It's a Sword that can Absorb Souls right?" He sounded very sure of his answer.

Euphrates hesitated. "Maybe...I have a theory..." She cut off narrowing her eyes. She was still suspicious about everyone around her. Spit it out, she told herself. "There were rumors. About two swords."
She watched Myeikura closely. Then she turned and made her way towards the crowd, curiousity getting the better of her.

Myeikura automatically thought about the two swords she had heard many things about, but had never gotten enough information to truly understand the entire history of them both. She watched Euphrates head towards a crowd and she began to walk a few feet behind her. Her steps were precise and yet light and graceful. As she walked it looked like she was about to go into a dance and yet not quite. It was just the way Myeikura walked when she was in this form it was...second nature. Considering in her village most of her kind didn't turn into their human forms unless they were residing in a human village or they were dancing around the great bonfire. Otherwise they stayed in their tiger forms, because their tiger forms were more sturdy unlike their human bodies which were very fragile compared to their tiger forms.

Kiraku_Ki Dasiuke shook his head. "Never heard of it.. Wait! Let me guess! By the sounds of it, it's a sword that can absorb souls right?" He sounded very sure of his answer. Night Shadow was surprised to hear that anyone did not know of the blade. "Most people know of the blade by names as 'Sword of Salvation' or 'Phantom Blade', even called 'The Ultimate Weapon'. Most are unaware of the true nature of the blade..." Night Shadow told Dasiuke.

Dasiuke blinked. "And you happen to be one of the few who knows?"

"Yes. The true nature of the blade is that it is demonic, and as you said, eats souls. Although it does the soul-eating part by invading the mind and taking control of the person that takes hold of the blade..." Night Shadow continued.

Daisuke's eyes grew. "Damn! There should be a bounty on that thing, then I would be rewarded handsomely and get to eat for once!"

Zabuza overheard talk of the sword and tuned in "...The sword....."
He sat a distance away from the others trying to remain inconspicuous
He began to walk towards the others "...This sword..Where is it?.."
