"No I have to see Kikyo right away.." He said starting to regain some of his breath.. and looking at the Maid..
Mean while the hawk.. was some how fighting to stay alive as if miricals do happen the hawk got away and flew best as he could towards Hell.. Lance wanted to see the bird suffer as he followed it to Hell's borders.. Dark clouds with hell began approaching as they appeared to most not a threat Sun was aware of Lance's arival..

She nodded softly and lead him up towards the room.
Kikyo was laying there and looked over at the door.
"Sun? What's going on?"

Kikyo looked back into her memory to look for the answers.
"His brother was once a dear friend of mine, and one day I don't know how, but they began a fight. Lance was killed. His brother is back, like him. As for Roy, Roy is Inferno's, his brother, son. When Inferno was known to be dead, Roy was the next best thing. And for me? Why not? Ruler of Hell. That's why."

Sun looked at her.. "So Lance is brother to the most powerful Fire Demon Inferno.. But why is he so powerful, doesn't he know that Inferno is stronger than him, why does he prosist on finding him?" He asked as Voxin flew in and Landed a few feet from Kikyo with it's wing tritching and blood coming from the mouth and leg of the hawk.. Sun picked up the bird and held him to Kikyo.. "Does he have no heart?" He asked her as well..

Kikyo held up her hand for the Hawk and took him slowly. Though she could not heal herself, she could others. She stroked the bird's back softly, healing it slowly as she answered Sun's question.
"I know Lance, he'll do whatever it takes to seek his revenge on the one who took his life."
Kikyo looked up at him.
"Would you if someone took your life and a part of them is still running around? Rather it's a son, a friend, a lover?"

Kikyo continued to stroke the calm bird's back as it continued to heal and looked at the window as well. She reconized the clouds.
"Sun, I'm going to tell you something that I've told Lance. You're only as good, and strong, as you want to be. Don't lose confindence in yourself."
She looked over at him and gave him a weak smile.

Sun smiled looking at Kikyo as he headed down the stair well.. The hawk screech with aganey but knew it can't do much since it need some time to recover..
Lance was now in veiw of Kikyo's fortress.. "This time you die Kikyo.."
He said walking closer as Sun hurried out the door to meet Lance head on.. This is his chance to reclaim dignity and peace..

Vincent Silverdust Alruna Silverdust Vincent Silverdust "You can call me whatever you want", Vince said. "So how long has you and your brother been here"? Vince asked looking at his feet. Vince felt like he was being watched. "Well, we've both lived here our entire lives, just like every other Kuraian. Our ancestors came to this island and established the Temple of Fate to house Elemental Sigil Stones which they could use for Elemental Fusion. The practice was not well received by most of world because of it's limitless capabilities. Then we of course built the town around it, and we've developed into our own race of demons. I guess our race has been on the island for about... fifteen hundred years or so? We uphold the old ways of the demons, rather than being bloodthirsty and ravenous, we lead a society. Hell's demons are all consumed with rage and evil. We don't believe that just because we are forsaken means that we must live our lives in anguish and hatred." Alruna said, a tear came to her eye at the thought of the corrupt demons that seemed to all follow Kikyo. "Are you going to be ok", Vince asked walking next to Alruna. "That must mean the you and your brother are really close. If you have been around scents this place was starred". Vince said ans they walked by a silvery tent. Alruna wiped her eye, putting on a genuinely warm smile. Vincent would easily find that she was a very pleasant person, especially for a demoness. "Yeah, Kestral and I are extremely close, he's raised me since our father was killed in the First War and our mother died when I was born. It's sad that such a great guy has so much stress in his life, but I think he's happy with life you know?" By this time the two had reached the largest tent on the island, the Elder's Tent. It opened out onto the path that stretched towards the town, there was a fairly long, winding trail that led down to the town square. Zindell was making amends with a bitter rival in Kikyo's fortress and Kestral was likely supervising the townsfolk like usual so the tent was quiet and peaceful. Alruna could hear the lovely sound of the wind blowing in the trees and the waves lapping at the shore far below them on the other end of the cliff. Once inside the tent, Vincent would be likely impressed with the interior. It was about as large as a decent sized home with six flaps that led to bedrooms. Silver light fell in through several small slits in the ceiling and there were many candles, lanterns and torches to light up the beautiful central room. Elaborate silver designs were embroidered all along the walls, hundreds of scenes were inscribed into them. Around the flap at the opposite end of the entrance was an enormous three headed dragon outlined in beautiful silver, a silver demoness lined the flap next to it and a silver fox on the flap opposite it. A short legged table stretched across the back of the room in the center, lunch had already been prepared.

Vince was speechless when he saw the inside of the tent. "I didn't think this place would look so beautiful". He said. "Hey i thought we were going to were i am going to stay"? He asked with amazement in his voice.

Kestral was attempting to calm the crazed villagers down. They were in a fit of rage over his decision to induct Vincent.
"All of you need to take a moment to think. I've got no child of my own, no apprentice, no pupil. Alruna and Zindell have already decided that they don't want to learn Elemental Fusion because it is too difficult and none of you have the potential. If I were to die in battle at this point, the art would be completely lost. We need to have someone else to carry on the tradition. The newcomer, Vincent, has the potential to master my powers. He's a great fighter and you will all have to respect my decision." Kestral said.
One of the men of the village stepped out in front of the crowd, Kestral knew him well. He was larger than most of the Kuraians, quite a bit larger even than Kestral. His name was Yorin, he was the town's blacksmith. Yorin had crafted many legendary weapons in his lifetime, and he was only about Kestral's age.
"Kestral, you saw what happened up there, his aura is not even close to silver. Now I'm not going to judge him because he's not of your noble birth, but how in the Hell do you intend to teach him your skills if he hasn't got the right qualifications?" Yorin asked, sparking quite a bit of commotion from the crowd behind him.
"Look Yorin, you know as well as I that the color or nature of a fighter's aura does not dictate his ability to learn skills. He's got what it takes, he's qualified, but it won't be as easy to learn since he's not of my bloodline." Kestral said, hesitating before he continued. "Oh, I've got a task for you by the way, I need you to craft a weapon for me."
As he said this the crowd behind them began to disperse and go about their lives as if nothing had happened, they trusted Kestral enough to know that he knew what he was doing.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Eh, what kind of weapon you got in mind sir?" Yorin chuckled.
"Well, remember our last experiment with a Golden Sigil Stone?" Kestral asked, he lowered his voice.
"Yeh, that was a great waste of your Stones and my craftsmanship..." Yorin said, "Look, I've only been able to craft one weapon that could control all the elements and that's your Demon Strings. No other weapon has that kind of potential for enchantment."
"Too true, but I'm going to create several Golden Sigil Stones and I want you to use them on this, I think you'll be quite surprised by how much potential it has for enchantment." Kestral said, drawing a strange chunk of dark silver metal from his pack.
Yorin was quite entranced by the dark metal, he took it in his hands and rubbed it against his tattooed face. He shuddered slightly before replying.
"You know that even this isn't enough to maintain one of your Golden Stones, it needs a more powerful core so that it can contain the elements, something like............ what you've got in your pocket there." Yorin said, grinning widely as he sensed the priceless material that Kestral had discovered. Kestral reached into his pocket and pulled out a strange shard of the most gorgeous hue. It changed hues constantly to every color in the spectrum.
"Ultimite ore, I found it while on a mission in the Cathurylle Mines. I figured maybe I'd get lucky and find some Mythrill or Orichalcum, but one of the Chimaeras had this piece of Ultimite jabbed into it's forehead. I'll get it refined so that you can use it as a core for the weapon and we can enchant it with the Golden Sigil Stones afterward." Kestral said. "I'm fairly sure an Adamantium blade with an Ultimite core can withstand that kind of enchantment right?"
"I'd say it's about the only thing besides your Demon Strings that could sir. So what kind of blade are you wanting me to craft? I'll certainly make this one a beauty, she'll be on my Legendary Crafts list for sure." Yorin asked.
"Well Yorin, I was thinking maybe something along the lines of Firefang, I want it curved and aerodynamic, but with a sturdy handle. It also shouldn't be too long, if the blade is long then the Ultimite becomes much less potent." Kestral whispered, using his hands to make imaginary measurements.
"I believe I can handle that, I'll throw in some special designs and she'll be done by the end of the week. Get that ore refined so that I can use it for the core as soon as possible." Yorin said, pointing to the beautiful stone in Kestral's hand.
"Alright then, I'll see what your services earn you when it's done then?" Kestral said, rubbing his fingers together to signify the large amount of money he would have to pay Yorin for such craftsmanship.
"That's fine by me, I know you're good for it." Yorin said.
"Vincent's weapon will truly be one for the ages, I'm going to get the Ultimite refined, adieu." Kestral said, bowing lightly before he walked away from Yorin who was still holding the Adamantium with amazement.
