Welcome to Gaia! ::

Silk slide his slipper covered feet across the ground in slow three step movements. His arms he had wrapped around his chest and his fingers dug through the ribbons wrapped over their tips and into his shoulders. He cast his blue eyed gaze down, to the sides, then slowly he lifted them up. He took a controlled and slow breath before he dared to speak. "I will go to the battle grounds. I am not afraid of the enemy. I am not afraid of becoming one of the lost. I know my faith is strong enough to protect me. I want to help protect the rest of my fellow servants. I know I'm not strong, but I hope that I might serve as a example to others who doubt themselves or their ability to defend you Lord. I want to fight. I don't like how the Cursed talk about us. I want to make them stop. I know we are not weak or pathetic for following you." Silk paused and lifted his hands to half hide his face behind the ribbons he carried. "And...I do not want to let Jangles go out without me. He'll probably get all stabbed and bruised up. I want to make certain I can hurt whoever hurts him and thinks they can get away with it."

Enfys entered the carnival and approached the god, bowing before him. He wished to lend a hand in this war, protecting and defending his home and his god. "My lord, Venezia, I would also like to help defend and fight in this war. I will protect those that I can to the best of my abilities." It was time that Enfys stepped up to do something and prove his loyalty to his god and his fellow followers.

Olath bounds into the area and grins with delight, "It'd be a nice treat if I could get my hands on the woman that damaged me before. I wasn't very active before since she hurt me so badly, but I shall get my revenge."

John walks in beside Olath, holding a crumpled up soda can and grinning ear to ear as well, "Even though I had an uneventful fight with a corrupted, I still would like to partake in the fighting some more."

Aurora strolls in behind the boys, nose held high, "Well, I won't do any fighting, but if we're to get people to return the the field, we'll need someone to tend to their wounds."

Deyrn nods in agreement with Aurora, not feeling the need to speak her approval of healing others.

Why do they wish to follow Venezia?: Pedrolino comes up and looks around. "I want to join because not only is the lord colorful, but the tents look like they would be fun to hide in and jump out at people from."

[Again, besides Otek, I forgot the reasons they would wish to join. These were the best that came to mind. sweatdrop

Venezia threw his hands in defeat. The small group managed to get their voices heard however the God took a serious turn and looked at each of them. "Fine~ May you go out there and battle but I warn you now~ If you are stupid enough to put yourself in danger and fall victim to the Cursed's design I will hunt you down myself and put you out of your misery." A dark laughter escaped his porcelain lips, hidden behind his sleeve. Yes, a threat but he hoped it would make them think twice about going out there and being some 'hero'.

[[Only those who posted before this post in reply to Jangles trying to get a little group together may go out and fight. If you failed to respond then your Pockettu cannot go out and fight. And Venezia's threat may or may not have some merit behind it. You've been warned~]]

Jianjun watched as the selected group of warriors went back into the fray. He must admit, he wished he had been out there, defending the Carnival with all of his might, but neither he nor his daughters were much of fighters. Acrobatics were better served for show, not for strength. Mustering up his courage, he approached his lord.

"My lord, how are things with you...? Amidst all of this chaos, have you at least found a bit of peace?"

After two battles with Corrupted in a relatively short amount of time, Scorch was in pretty bad shape. He had forced himself to go the healer's tent before going to the shrine, but he hadn't rested as long as he probably should have, and was bandaged up in several areas, the worst and most recent of which was a bad shoulder wound, that he really didn't want to talk about. The two fights had put more questions in his head than was probably good for him -- what was it with him and his obsession over cursed? At at least this time, it wasn't anything like before... no secrets were being kept from his god, and no wrestling with where his loyalties lied. Hoping Venezia would realize this, he made his way to the shrine, knelt, head bowed, eyes closed in reverence, before speaking. "My Lord... I wish to speak with you..."

Scorch waited, and gave an inward sigh of relief as his God showed up. He glanced up, and opened his eyes, and tried his best to put a slight tired smile on his face as he sighed a little. "Don't worry...I don't plan on running off with some Cursed or anything..I've learned my lesson. I'm just concerned about these new Cursed gods that have shown up that we keep hearing about. Concerned for everyone's saftey. That's why Jangles and the rest of us wanted to go back out there...Do you... know much about them, my Lord?"
