  SPIRIT | FEMALE_______________________________________P O S T↳ The tension grew as several people reacted to the conflict. Miyu stood her ground and she blushed in embarrassment as the rabbit spirit pointed out that a weapon had no chance against magic. She pufffed her cheeks and opened her mouth to respond but she stopped as she felt movement.
Looking down, Leth started to come to his senses. A sigh of relief left her lips, he wasn't badly injured but still, she wanted to keep him still. "Please don't mov- H-hey!" She couldn't stop him, Leth was already moving off her lap and onto his hands and knees. "You shouldn't move after taking a kick the head." She looked back at the girl and blinked, her aggressive stance softened and she was on the verge of tears.
It took Miyu a moment but then it clicked and her face went deadpan at Leth. How could he make a girl worry like that. She sighed and stood up, dusting her clothes from the bits of dirt from the stone flooring. "You should ask her for some ice for that lump on your head." Her tone changed from concerned for his well being to 'what did you do?'.

KidCactus "You shouldn't move after taking a kick the head." She sighed and stood up, dusting her clothes from the bits of dirt from the stone flooring. "You should ask her for some ice for that lump on your head." Her tone changed from concerned for his well being to 'what did you do?'.   Leth tried not to take too much notice of the brown-haired girl, still a little stunned that she had taken
to his defense so quickly, but he couldn't help but sense some disapproving tone in her words,
prompting his instinctive response."I --!" he thought to make some kind of argument as to why he shouldn't ask this particular ram
Spirit to care for a wound she inflicted on him not one minute prior, but quickly realised it'd be
pointless to point that out to a stranger.While he was thankful for the brown-haired girl's help, he ultimately didn't know how to respond to it.
"I'll... be fine... I guess..." he settled for saying.

Leth's head still pounded. He continued kneeling with his hands on his knees, listening carefully not
only to the ram Spirit's words, but the shifting and destabilising tones in her voice.He was always rather resilient, so aside from the initial blackout he suffered, he'd likely only be left
with a painful bruise -- and it was likely this resilience that convinced the ram Spirit to kick him as
hard as she did.Leth listened to the girl's desperate scolding, remaining silent and looking down at the floor as he
was chastised. He wanted to say a grand number of things to comfort or correct her, but couldn't
help but feel guilty enough that a deep hesitation held his words in arrest. He couldn't bring himself
to try and challenge her words, or to try to correct her at all, knowing the only thing he could live
with saying now were words of apology."I know," he lowered his head a little more, "I know, Koikku..."
"I'm sorry." he finally delivered a small apology.
A few moments passed, before Leth slowly turned himself around, so that his body was facing the
girl, though he dared not look up at her. His eyes were solemnly closed as his head faced the floor.
It was after these few moments that he finally felt able to make some sort of argument for himself.
"I broke our promise. I know. But there really wasn't anything else I could do. If --" he quickly looked up and to one
side, noting how many complete strangers were listening to him, before changing his words, "If they got to you, or Enzeru,
or Kuren..." Leth closed his eyes again, still keeping his head facing the floor, "I would have lost all of you..."

 The girl listened carefully to the man she'd attacked, still trying to contain her emotions, and wiping
away the few tears that had covered her cheeks. When he apologised to her, she went near-silent, as
if apprehensive that he'd start yelling at her afterwards. However, when no aggression came, she
knew the man truly felt regret."We --" her voice cracked a little as she tried to reply, after having shaken so much, moments before.
"...later. We'll talk about this later..."As Leth nodded softly with his eyes closed, Koikku tried to compose herself fully, now acutely aware of
how many others were watching and listening."Is... is this all there is?" she finally took note of the exact number of arrivals. "This is all that
came...?"

It was clear that there was a much bigger picture here than she and probably everyone else here could comprehend. But it appeared to be something between Leth and Koikku.
At Koikku's question regarding the attendance of everyone, Akari glanced at the others in the pavillion.
"Were there supposed to be more?" She furrowed her eyebrows curiously and tilted her head slightly, while shifting from her left foot to her right and fiddling with the tips of her pink ears nervously. Was this girl a member of that very prominent family? Akari could already feel her self-confidence shrinking the longer she was in the presence of someone so strong.

Having stayed towards the back of the room, Shikatsu had watched as the aftermath of the previous encounter subsided and tempers settled.
It now seemed safe enough to get closer to the group he had been watching.
As he made his way more towards them, he listened carefully to what they had to say.
He had missed out on the fight itself and what caused it, thankfully, but this made it hard to understand fully what they were talking about.
He took notice of everyone in the room and watched on curiously as the pink hair girl asked the very question he was thinking.
He turned to the brown hair one and listened carefully to what her response would be.

Narration Post "Is... is this all there is?" Koikku finally took note of the exact number of arrivals. "This is all that came...?" At Koikku's question regarding the attendance of everyone, Akari glanced at the others in the pavillion. "Were there supposed to be more?" - - - A low rumbling came over the stone platform; a resonating wave that gave off a slight hum. It was harmless, and hard to notice, but it marked a change in all the Weapons that were left on the table in the middle of the platform. Any weapon currently held by participants will now start shaking gently in their grasp. Any participants not currently holding a weapon from the table can feel free to grab one, at which point it will also start shaking, even if sheathed, so long as they are being held. Those currently holding one of the weapons: Miyu Sakai (KidCactus). The NPC Koikku will speak shortly to explain the meaning of the phenomenon.

Shikatsu looked over to the table as it seemed to almost hum and inspected the weapons that were on it.
They were old, worn out weapons that seemed to be useless for anything other than mild training purposes.
He reached out and grabbed hold of one of the shorter blades and picked it up.
Once he held it the weapon started to shake or vibrate within his grasp.
This was odd and he looked over to the pink haired girl who also held a weapon to see if she had any reaction to her own held weapon.
This would mean that she too had felt it and it was not just the one that he had.

While waiting for the Ram Spirit to answer her question, her eyes shifted towards the table at the center, which held the assortment of worn weapons. Lifting her head and looking around, she noticed that Kokuyoseki and another male spirit with animal features now held weapons. Many questions surged through her mind, but she swallowed the word vomit back and perused the weapons for a moment before choosing one of the swords. The second she gripped it, she nearly dropped it in surprise as it began emitting a vibration, which sent tingle throughout her hand and to her fingertips. It wasn't her first time holding a sword, but she'd never held one that moved before. A glance at Koyuko's expression gave Akari the impression that the horned spirit was enjoying the sensation just a bit too much. She didn't even want to think about what might have been going on inside her head.

Luna Kosane At Koikku's question regarding the attendance of everyone, Akari glanced at the others in the pavillion. "Were there supposed to be more?"
intercepted... They have been more active lately..." she seemed lost in thought.As the weapon held by Miyu started to shake gently in her grasp, and others started taking notice and
selected weapons of their own from the table, Koikku's attention returned to the scene before her."Right, time to explain." She composed herself, putting aside her other thoughts until later when
she could pursue them."These are old weapons that no longer have much use, but they're made from Reactive
Metalline -- there are certain times of the day where they'll shake in the presence of
someone who is able to use magic."She began walking towards the table, and the rest of the weapons atop it. "In the case of someone
who has not yet been able to use magic, it signifies that they're starting to show potential.""Basically, if the weapon shakes in your hands, you'll be able to use Elemental Magic soon."She paused for a moment, before looking around her and taking note of where everyone was standing.
"And in the case of someone who is able to use a fair amount of magic, when that time of
the day comes and they try to hold one of these weapons..." As she grasped a sword from the table, pulling it from its sheathe without removing the sheathe from the table, the blade began
shaking violently, then abruptly ripped itself from her hand and flew at high speed away from her. It rapidly spun as it flew up in
a steep arc towards the roof, before embedding itself deep in one of the red wooden pillars. A powerful, satisfying steel scraping
noise sounded as it buried itself into the wood halfway down its length. "...it reacts quite energetically." If anyone were to look up towards the top of the pillars, they might notice that there were a few other weapons, mostly swords,
also hanging, halfway along their length, from the sides of a few of the other pillars. This demonstration had been made before.
And those weapons were likely stuck there for good. ( The weapons will continue shaking gently in all participants' grasps, assuming they are a Spirit. )

 Isabella watched the two as they talked about promises and vanishing to avoid others being hurt. 'This looks like a case for someone else to deal with..' she thought silently, still not convinced she should care much about Leth's condition. Though it was good that they were going to get over whatever the hell convinced the one girl to kick Leth across the floor. Chances are with enough force he would have either had a snapped neck or someone would have had to fish him out of the lake that surrounded the platform. With the question on the amount of people showing up, her ears shifting softly, the left going upward while the right went backwards. Did they expect more people to show up? Regardless, she'd look over at the weapons as they began to shake lightly, and picked up a short sword. She stared as it vibrated more, and felt her ears adjust softly as she had a few thoughts of what this meant.

  Siel began walking towards one of the others, eager to take a closer look at the weapon they held in their hands, and it
shaking in their grasp.He chose Shikatsu as his target."Reactive Metalline." he commented. "Its not particularly rare or expensive, but it has been a little harder to
find recently. Apparently all the Spirit Families took possession of it all for their own purposes."As he stood behind (and slightly off to the side from) Shikatsu, his body language remained very neutral.
"Congratulations; you've been hit by the spark."He largely assumed everyone would know what 'the spark' was, so he didn't attempt to explain it. He simply waited to
see if the Spirit he'd approached had any reaction to offer.Otherwise, he kept his awareness open and spread across several of the others present, in case they approached him at
all."I assume you're a Spirit also, sir Leth." Siel turned a little to look over at the man, who still remained on his knees,
facing Koikku on the other side of the platform. "And that the RM would react similarly if you held it."

Shikatsu continued to watch the reactions of everyone as more came up and chose a weapon of their own to hold.
He noticed as someone walked up behind him and spoke.
After hearing the word 'spark' he put that together with what the ;ady told him about the metal h was holding and understood.
He looked over his shoulder to the person before speaking himself.
"You are referring to the ability to use magic are you not? If so then yes, it does appear so."
He turned to face the man and looked him over as he did.
His ears flicked a bit as he still listened to those around them.
"And what about you?" He asked his tone subtle yet the curiosity was present.
