The inventor seemed at once completely fascinated and terrified by the magic that he was witnessing. But he would not meddle in affairs that he knew nothing about, particularly when they were of such occult nature. He notice the crystals glowing, and could only wonder what that meant for the two of them.
Ernst grimaced, swallowing back some blood. "Ugh. . . Well, then, I suppose you wouldn`t mind my going back home?" The devices whirred frantically as they worked to keep the wound sutured. "I wouldn`t want another run in with those fellows."

"Go while you can. But first-" He drew a little more deeply on his power, and muttered something in a language long since dead under his breath. The spell hit Ernst square in the chest, and the sorcerer hoped that the shock of having magic used on him would not cancel out the healing. "I hope that helps."

The dark crystals hum melodically, and shoot beams of violet. They seem intent on sucking the magic out of the mage.
They glowed brightly, and hummed louder. The few Soulless one's chopping down trees, began pounding on the trunks, frantically as if worried.

The inventor of course, was greatly shocked. He stared at his abdomen for a moment, as though expecting some foul thing to jump out at any moment, but much to his surprise, the bleeding stopped, and the wound healed as though it had never been there before. All that was left to suggest it was the tear in his clothes. Ernst looked up, seeming a bit pale-faced but otherwise fine. He smiled faintly. "Thank you, mein Herr."
Ernst looked back, and took a step towards his home, but the dark crystals immediately shot a beam of violet where he would have been had he not stopped himself in time.
"It doesn`t seem they want us to leave . . ."
[ OoC: Battle ready.]

The dark crystals began humming louder, hungry for any magic, in the area.
The formation began charging up another batch of beams.

The Black Forest wasn't normally the best place to find a thing of value but seeing as how a variety of white moths were getting closer to extinction, while considering that many animal activist were willing to buy these moths in large amounts for reasonable prices, and seeing as Renu, or Parabellum to everyone else, needed money, the job sounded fine.
Still the unnatural silence of the forest didn't feel right to him, regardless of the fact he had his modified .44 with him, the forest gave a very intimidating feel.
"Better get good pay for all this nonsense."
his boots made soft patting noises on the dirt beneath him and occasionally a few branches would snap underneath his boots. on his back sat a bag, and in that bag was currently 15 white moths, his goal for the day was at least twenty.
He rounded through the trees, stepped over a bush, and his foot placed itself on a rather large branch, the resulting snap was quite loud, and Renu seemingly sighed and kept moving.

[Iih, that`s a tough roll to beat! xd Do I wait for Hrothbert?]
Ernst`s eyes widened when the crystals started to hum again. Usually that meant they were powering up, and the inventor had the greatest feeling that it could not mean anything good. He glanced to Hrothbert a bit guiltily -- had he stayed in his little cabin and minded his own business, the both of them probably wouldn`t be in this mess.
The inventor plugged in a few commands on the compact interface he had on his arm, and soon the devices whirred to life, sparking as they worked to create a sort of shield to counter the crystal`s attacks.
Now, he could only hope that Hrothbert`s defense would be a bit more adept at deflecting magic than his was.

((Editing.))
There was another flicker of violet, but not from the beams. Emma of Bainbridge stepped out of a hole in the air (of her own making), already lecturing as she walked towards the two men.
"-And you tell me that I go running off into danger without cause. You make me stay behind and then charge off on your own, without any sort of protecti-oh."
She had realized exactly what was happening.

Renu finds a few crates labeled in a language unknown to him
They are half open, but whoever was opening them didn't seem to eager to take out it's contents.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
((Battle Section, sure you can both battle it together; though one may end up getting hurt, and the other safe and victorious))
Der Uterang: The crystals beams, were deflected, and the crystals cracked slightly.
Emma: The beams narrowly miss Emma, and Hrothbert.

Finding a few crates in the forest was a very unexpected surprise, however the language was nothing he had seen, and Renu couldn't exactly read it. They were half open and Renu simply decided to remove the rest of the lid to look inside.

[ Editing. Hmm, was I supposed to roll? I am sorry if I am complicating, I had a long day at work and my thinking is a bit fuzzy now. xd ]
The devices trembled under the stress of deflecting the attacks, and Ernst`s eyes widened. He plugged in some more commands, and the mechanical arms whirred more loudly, sparking and fuming as the shield grew stronger. The inventor looked to Emma and Hrothbert as they were preparing to leave. "Go on, I`ll cover you." The two nodded and flew into the air.
Ernst focused his attention back to the crystals, and kept plugging in as many commands as he could. Finally, one of the arms whirled and beeped, and of a sudden a beam shot out to counter the crystals.
The crystals seemed unaffected at first, but then shattered and fell to the ground. Ernst sighed in relief as he powered down his gear, and walked over to the crystals, carefully picking them up to put them in a jar. "Let`s have a look, shall we?" he muttered, putting them into his knapsack. He`d bring them back to his laboratory to examine them.
[ To Emma: It`s alright! ]

Emma looked shocked as a violet beam whizzed by her, and slightly more shocked when her husband was discovered to have yanked her out of the way. He looked back towards Ernst, nodding towards him in recognition as the two mages reclaimed their bird-forms and took to the air.
((Gotta run! Sorry to make the exit so sudden.))

[[No you're ok, though I was sort of waiting on Emma; I think that was her post though.]]
Inside the crates are many necklaces, with rubies brandished with sharp tip sat the end.
Looking closer it has a veiny pattern on it. Staring at it, gives you a desire to put it on. Almost overwhelming.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
((Battle Section: This is for Emma not your battle Der Uterang))
Emma and Hrothbert, both retreated.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The inventor, had collected the now inert crystals. They seemed safe enough, but they were useless without any magic to place in them.
[[If you insert magic into it you will complete a quest
Battle Victor: Der Uterang]]

"Well slap me sideways and call me-"
Renu couldn't finish the sentence as an overwhelming desire began to grip him. The Necklace was "calling" him, beckoning for him to wear it, and seeing as Renu was only human he scooped up the necklace in his gloved hand, electricity crackling from his ribs to his hand and around the ruby. Renu placed it around his neck and closed his eyes.
