Welcome to Gaia! ::

Merlin went on alert, zeroing in on an unfamiliar buzz in the Nocturne. She simply kept tabs on him, she'd deal with if he became interesting, for now, she was going to have her bite to eat...

Copper eyed the man and smiled, "Hard night?" She asked, dropping the drink in front of him on a square napkin.

Copper raised a brow, "You came to the right place. Where'd you walk from, Timbucktu?"

"I'm sorry, I've actually never been much of a joker. That's a long walk sir. Relax, behave, and you'll have a lot of fun here. Be mindful not to drain anyone but there is plenty of food both willing and eager. I'm Copper by the way, need anything, you ask." She winked and left him to his drink.

Flushed and sated she watched the man sympathetically as he stumbled with a friend tot he door. They thought he'd had too much too drink. That wasn't the case but they didn't need to know that. Another man claimed his spot, smiling down at her in a friendly manner. He was warm and didn't mind him there so she stayed put, listening to the music and the talking and laughing of her table group. Her mind started wandering again, though. It settled on the newcomer. His mind buzzed in hers with activity and she raised a brow, What a busy bee.... she thought distantly.

Darius looked up at her and smiled warmly, letting his eyes wander over her features for a moment before saying, "If you have then I wasn't aware of it but my guess is no", downing the last of his whiskey he set the glass on the counter and said, "Hi, Copper, could you get me a refill? But on the rocks this time?"

Looking back to Jen he said, "So may I ask what your name is? Oh, and mine is Darius by the way. Would you like a drink?" He asked, arching a brow he spun in his chair so he could lean against the bar, making it easier to talk to her.

Tara slowly felt the presence of Merlin nearby and sighed in relief before standing up and grabbing Jacks arm as she hurried over to the Blaydon Leader. If there was one person who could stop Tien atleast, it was her.

"Merlin!" she said, ignoring the human beside her as she said, "We need to talk. The city may become a warzone once again.." she used her mental abilities to keep the human oblivious to her as she said, "It's about the Sulla Way."

Tien landed infront of Aurora's resting place, his mind already assaulted by the combined presences of his old master and her guardian.

He didn't bother with knocking, knowing that they both knew he was here already and walked in, looking around him before saying, "Lady Aurora, Mistress of Mischief, Queen of Chaos, your lowly student has come to invite you to..a little game..."

Tien laughed at that, although he was pretty sure she would do it, "Well, I owe her my life, but that is not why I came here. Me and my dear elder siblings want to bring some fun back into this city. A little chaos here, a little destruction there. Your favorite game is it not?"

"My siblings are going to start the war on their own. It's part of the Sulla Way, an oath they were forced to make after our families' dishonor. To avenge the the family and destroy the city that made us fall. I was too young to truly understand what was going on, but after that I know the War started within a few days."

Tara sighed in relief just as Tien sighed in aggravation.

"That's one Sulla down atleast..." she murmured.

"Can't I havesome fun even with this leash you have on me Merlin?" he grumbled before turning around, "Do you still want help though Aurora?" he asked as he began to fade away.
