Staring at the rest of the group, though she didn't say so aloud, but Adi could sense a bit of tension. A bit, being a gentle way of putting it as, she watch Clauida with the albino girl named Ruby, and how her teammate didn't care for that much. Nor did the blonde care but when done went to Nyru to discuss something. Adi was out of ear shot, however, the expressions were clear indications however.
Watching both teams interactions, Adi felt it rather odd that she as part of 'her' team was the only one noticing this. Shaking her head she let it be, as long as no arrows were flying or spears stabbing.
The gypsy though focused on the important stuff, the mission and the ones they were fighting.
"Dark arcane magic..." she murmured as she listened. As no real magic user she really didn't know much. Adi did know though that at the fundamentals, there were ways to better combat a type of arcane magic. "...so essentially we will need some lighter form of arcane magic then...at least it being a start..." she said aloud in a thoughtful manner.
This man though, sound much more then simply a man.
Whatever Adi was thinking at the time was shocked from her mind from the amount of lights going off. Flinching and jumping, she stared as everyone panicked a bit and the Doctor and his companion worked on their counsel as Nyru rushed them to get to the scene of the on coming storm.

The Doctor & Clara Theme song: I Am The Doctor
Sipping their tea, Clara and the Doctor leaning back against the railing whilst Adi did the same on the opposite side. The TARDIS was singing its song as it transported them across space once again towards the Land of Crows. The Doctor was still looking at that note that printed a little while ago before the others left, it was then that Clara asked him what it is. "Oh, just a weird signal, beings transmitted across the entire universe apparently. Once i've dropped you guys off for Christmas i'll have to go an investigate it! Can't have anyone else getting there first, especially if its one of my old friends"
"Daleks, by any chance?" asked Clara, he sighed and said "Hopefully not. Anyway! We're here" the TARDIS docked and the sounds stopped once more, the Doctor and Clara finished their teas and placed the cups down.

The calm quiet and contentment of the moment was most relieving. The tension slowly seeping form her body with more tea, and making her eyes droop a bit more. Adi just realizing how tired she was, she had been on the move so much going from battle to, healer, to farewells right after the other; no time to slow down.
Now though, the gypsy knew she'd be lucky to make it into the inn and to a bed. Perhaps the hay in the stables will be fine...it would calm Criox down at least.
At the announcement of their arrival, Adi perked up and shook her head to clear away the haze of exhaustion. And sure enough as the TARDIS doors opened, Land of Crows was revealed; it too covered in a light fluffy layer of white. The chill coming from the open doors, waking her up a bit more. Smiling, she turned to the strange but marvelous pair as they set their cups down.
"Thank you Doctor, Clara...you were a lot of help; wouldn't have been able to have won without you," she proclaimed honestly and thankfully. Adi was glad in the end that the number had proven useful rather then pointless. "And thank you for taking the time to return me here. Happy Christmas."
With that, she stepped down the medal pathway to the doors and her boots crushing the layer of snow, and it collecting in her dark hair; like white pedals in her tresses. A soft smile on her face, she lifted a hand to catch the frozen ice. Snow wasn't always common in part of Magic Earth, but she remembered it on cases, and this one will be never forgotten. Turning back to the open doors, Adi continued to smile.
"Farewell Clara, look after him okay, he clearly needs it," she said with a chuckle, eyes warm and glistening slightly. Eyes on the Doctor now, Adi's smile widened and brighten though a flicker of regret in there as well. "Goodbye Doctor...."
"my Doctor"...Adi had barely whispered it under her breath, but still it was aloud; no chance of him hearing however.

The Doctor & Clara Theme song: I Am The Doctor
Soon enough they had all finished their tea, and with the opening of the doors to the Land of Crows, a delicate blanket of snow covered teh city, some even swept in with the small breeze. Clara smiled in reply to Adi, and said "Don't you worry about that, i've got hi under a close watch, that is of coarse unless he dumps me somwhere" she joked. The Doctor chuckled too and then looked to Adi who was looking at him, and when she said goodbye his grinned with his puppy eyes and quietly said back " goodbye, Rur'adika" and then the doors closed slowly, nothing was left but a blue box to stare at.
It wasn't long until that familiar sound began wooshing again. And slowly, in and out of existence the TARDIS faded and didn't even leave a dent in the snow beneath it as the glow of the tight on it's tip vanished, the sound echoed away and Adi was left alone.

Knowing the Doctor was in good hands put her more at ease. The pain of goodbyes however, was not so easy to overcome and settle. It wasn't long and with a sweet honest goodbye, the Doctor, the man of her daydreams as a child was closed off in his blue box and disappearing. With every wheezing whoosh of that machine of his, the blue box faded a little bit more.
And then there was nothing but empty space and snow flakes falling in front of her. Not even evidence in the snow for Adi to recognize that the Doctor was there. Nothing but memories and words to remember him by.
Sighing and not letting herself crying, Adi collected her exhausted self and headed to the stables of the inn Nyru, Claudia and herself were staying at. And sure enough the brown chestnut stallion was kicking at his stable doors, evidence of wear showing at he repeated the actions hours on end. Seeing her though he quickly stopped and let out shrill cry as she opened the stable door.
"Yes Croix I'm here...safe and sound," she cooed and pet his muzzle and laid a kiss upon his brow. "I'm back...and I'm exhausted, hope you don't mind me taking up some space in here."
No complaint from the horse, Adi settled into the pile of fresh hay laid down. As she hit the scratchy grass, the gypsy didn't even notice as exhaustion plummeted her into dreamless slumber.

She could not bring herself to leave the Land of Crows just yet.
Part of her still held on to the hope the Doctor would return, but it was a hopeless idea and hope of a child. Adi had grown up and now seeing that raggedy man, well, her ideal childish dreams seemed more practical now. Course her finding some fabulous man, strong and true, while joyful and compassionate, seemed rational, course what woman didn't have some high expectations growing up.
Another reason she hadn't left yet and set herself to wander the streets in the shadows of Ravencrest and the Black Citadel, was the friend she had made. Hopefully by now, they would have made it back on the Zeppelin, deals though are to be expected. Such a large place though and knowing Shadowmancers of their stature remained in the walls of the palace, Adi knew not to expect to see them.
Sighing to herself, she just sat idealy upon Croix's saddled back. Him content to drink and eat out of the bucket and feed bag she had given him. Taking out her pipes, Adi just began to play a soft somber however beautiful and captivating tune just to settle her racing thoughts. Though she always projected the sound with magic so more could hear over the white noise of a city, she doubted it would reach the windows of the palace and citadel, let alone where ever those two were within that massive building.

━━☽Ɍυɼ'Дɖɩқą Дɖɖąɧąɼɼą☾━━
Several times she thought about it, even attempted to pack her things up, as few as they were and head out. Every time though, something, a little hint, a small bubble of doubt in the back of her mind kept her from going. Unsure exactly what it was, sometimes it was a simple nagging thought that she could run into them today. Or perhaps that something wasn't right...somewhere in the air and land, something was off and that she should stay.
It was that particular nagging that something was off, only stronger this time. Something was horribly wrong, which led her to take out there Terro cards. Not something often used by her, but it was a way for her to read what her instincts told her at times, the cards with their Gypsy magic read the energy around her and weaved a story. However, hard to interpret and harder to be certain about. When the card of 'Death' was flipped over, she stared at it in silent panic. Not a card often seen, or when it wasn't inverted implying overcoming of death, Adi stared at it in her hand.
"Something really is wrong...." she breathed. Looking at the others, Adi flipped the other over quickly, the cards implying friendships was inverted, signalling that they were either going to be lost or already lost. The next one was in the place for future, and with a shaky hand she flipped it. There was an inverted card of speaking of light and reign. "Darkness is coming..." she breathed out.
Shocked at her own words and unsure exactly where they had come from, all she knew as they were right. Darkness was coming, death, losses of friends, light and ones reign was, already, or going to be changed. Nothing about this ready was warm and fuzzy, and though it answered some of the unease she felt in the air. For Rur'Adika it only caused further concern, and still she stared trying to decipher further answers from the cards. The Gypsy woman was interrupted however as the sky opened up with a voice and announcement.
"This is a notice for all citizens of the Land of Crows, I, Advisor to the Queen regret to announce that Declasia has been untimely taken from us. Murdered, by none other than her most trusted Royal Guards, Nyru Statem, and Claudia Vesslia. Tomorrow morning all citizens of the City shall attend the execution of the traitors to witness justice, and to all i share my deepest sorrows. For now, the murderers will be imprisoned, not to see the light of day as their hearts as as dark as our ancestry."
Her friends! A hand over her parted lips and pale face, Adi stared at the card, and could see Nyru and Claudia there in that card and her heart bumped with worry. "Impossible...they wouldn't do that! They wouldn't...not after saving it from Zoltan... it makes no sense at all!!"
The wales and cries of outrage and despair were lost to her. All she heard and saw was the adventure she had with the ones proclaimed guilty. Their kindness, their strength and bravery, as well as their drive to complete a mission. She may have had a better start with Nyru, Claudia eve with her rough edges, she was a good person. Tears growing in her eyes, she looked from her cards to see the angry crowd before her and making its way past her.
An angry grieving mob out for justice and revenge.
"This isn't right....things don't add up..." Adi wheezed clutching the orb that she had made into a pendent around her neck; much like and next to the cracked coin from Zoltan. "I have to save them...they didn't do this...I just know..."
Looking to the Black Palace, she stared at its massive walls and towering spires of power and intimidation. The number of well trained individuals inside those black walls, it was staggering. And yet, Adi didn't care, she stared down those walls to the depths she knew her friends were imprisoned.
"...my friends, I'm coming..."

 Isabelle Statem `•.¸ ¸.•´`•.¸ ¸.•´`•.¸ ¸.•´`•.¸ ¸.•´`•.¸ ¸.•´
Isabelle was walking the streets of the City of Crows, there were so many people and she wanted to get to relive teh area she grew up in as a child. But ever since she left she felt like something wasn't right, her stomach just... it had that feeling. And then the heavens opened up with an announcement from Darris, the Advisor for the queen.
'What?' Isabelle thought, her face stricken with grief at the thought of he brother... her brother of all people being sentenced to death by treason against the queen... but killing her too! It couldn't be right, everyone around her were shouting, crying out in fear, remorse, their immortal queen had been killed! But what about Isabelle... she was standing amongst the panic like a wreck, tears starting down her face, fist clenched to her chest and make-up turning her into a damsel in distress. Walking backwards, forwards, then backwards again through the crowds she was overcome with fear, she didn't know what to do. 'nyru... no... you couldn't...' she continued thinking to herself. She then shouted out "You're lying!!!" to the sky as her back suddenly thumped into someone else behind her! She didn't care who ti was.. she just wanted her brother back, this was treason! There was no way that he could have killed the queen! Oh but the queen... if she's really dead too... then what will come of the city?!
Tragically turning around she came to face a young gypsie woman, "i'm sorry!" she tried to saya mongst the panic around them. "im sorry" she repeated again. Murmering under her breath she said "i need to get to the palace" she wasn't even talking to the gypsie, she was confirming her own plans to herself to reassure herself of what she needed to do. "I need find Nyru" she mumbled to herself again, getting ready to turn around again and head towards the Black Palace and its towering spires.

Staring up at the massive building that over shadowed her, though determined to help, she wasn't so sure on the how. In a land she did not know, in a place she only knew a few and those few locked away in the bowls of that massive black entity they called a palace. She had thought it pretty at first, now it was only menacing.
Adi clutching the three cards to her chest, she continued to stare and plan. That is till someone bumped into her and the chest she was using as a table. With her attention diverted to the chest, she laid her hands on the deck to make sure none of the cards fell to the damp and dirty street. Once confirmed that they were just find, she looked up to find a very emotional and distraught but beautiful woman. Most likely another individual struck with grief at the knowledge of the Queen's death.
Her apology though was acceptable. "No...its alright...everyone is a mess and everything chaotic at the moment..." she murmured collect her cards and putting them away. When the woman mentioned Nyru though, Adi's head shot up with surprise and eagerness.
"Nyru...Nyru Statem..." she questioned quickly and softly so the crowd though very distracted couldn't hear. "...the man that was just announced to have killed the Queen....what's your connection to my friend?!"

Grasping for breath, Isabelle stared blankly at the palace in the distance, so often did she look at it as a beautiful piece of architecture, moreso than any other city, but now it was a hurdle to jump over, and it was far too high. When the gypsie girl repeated Nyru's name though, and a friendship occuring she slowly pulled her head to the side to look at the woman. "He's my brother, how do you know him?!" she then answered, with another question!
Had she just bumped into someone that could help her? Never had she thought she would, she wasn't even sur eif staying here to find the answers was the right thing to do. She just wanted to leave, to get to her brother as soon as possible. Exhasperated under the rain that was beginning to fall, Isabelle quickly said "If you're his friendm please! You have to help me get him out of there! He's not a guilty man, i know he isn't!"

"Brother..." Adi breathed in surprise.
She hadn't been aware that Nyru had any. Though they had only met for a short time, and mostly preoccupied with more important things then ideal chitchat. Still the Gypsy was surprised to learn that the male Shadowmancer had a family. This woman, Isabelle, wanted...no, needed her help to break Nyru free and his partner.
Nodding at the non-guilty part, Adi spoke as the woman settled slightly. "I agree with you; I'm a friend and we fought along side each other. The Nyru and Claudia I know, aren't capable of this..." Shaking her head, Adi picked up her things and put them in Croix's saddle bags, watching them magically lock once closed. "....something is terribly wrong here..."
Stepping forward, Adi placed a hand on Isabelle's upper arm between elbow and shoulder, a smile on the Gypsy's lips. "I'll help you as best I can. I"m an outsider and not familiar with your lands or the palace layout for that matter. I have magic though...together we should be able to get in and out without trouble....I hope...."
Unless Isabelle knew something she did not, together, Adi thought they were more capable of this working out properly. The real issue being, that they only had till dawn tomorrow, and already night was settling in.

Isabelle Statem `•.¸ ¸.•´`•.¸ ¸.•´`•.¸ ¸.•´`•.¸ ¸.•´`•.¸ ¸.•´
Isabelle then felt a warm clasp on her arm, over hr shoulder she could see the gypsie, that she wanted to help. She was offering the best help she could, and frankly, Isabelle knew that a friend of her brother's would be enough to be able to come with her into the palace. As for getting in, she already had a plan.
"I can get us in" she said, with a pause for breath. The rain was getting harder now, forming droplets on Isabelle's cheeks and making her hair clump up into clusters. She then swallowed and said "I can make us vanish" she sounded out of breath still as she made short sentences, her heavy British accent looming through. That was something that Nyru didn't have, when she was younger she had the chance to go to England and live there for several years, meaning during her youth she developed an english accent. The perks of having Occult family she thought.
"Once we're inside I'm going to need someone to knock out the guards, i can't do anything else whilst casting the illusion. We can go in through a back entrance, it's secret and only Royal Guards can use it" and how could she use it then? Well. She has her ways, being of the Occult and all. All deception and cunning they were, assassins and peacekeepers all the same to keep everything a secret.

The fact that this woman could get them in set her at easy, only slightly of course. Adi was no fool, in was half the challenge and the out was just ad difficult if not more so, she was sure. Perhaps between the two of them this could get done without too much of an issue.
Hearing a bit of the plan and the way they were to get in, Adi nodded. It sounded reasonable and simple. Anything complicated causes just as much issues she was sure, and being less familiar, the simpler the better for her. Smirking at the knowledge that she was the one for the heavy lifting as it were.
"I think I can manage that with ease. What about getting them out of the cells they are most likely in and out of the palace? Surely they'll know quickly something has gone wrong?" she asked; Adi was always trying to think of all the angles.

((sorry this is short!))
Adi had a point, she spoke of making sure htye don't get caught, that they do it safely. Claudia was still breathing heavily, and the repeating announcement in the sky again made her look up with stress. She bit her lip and looked down. "I can get us in unseen, but once we have them i'll need to work some magic... unless you can pick locks? They're old and rusty down there, shouldn't be too hard? And then once they're out... we leave as quickly as possible. I don't know if i can conceal four of us, but we can't be seen. Or the Occult will probably sentence us all to death..."
