The dark haired woman offered a smile of her own “ If I were as sensible woman I might take you up on that. But I do not need assistance from a being that stands above others, nor someone who thinks they can plan my life.” She had let her guard down. She should not have but it was hard not to. This person, this Priest none the less was so understanding. She wondered if he truly understood her bond to Yune. If one died, so did the other, if one was cut, the other would be cut. It was a bond that could not be broken, yet she longed to live. She stretched her arms up and over her head “okay enough sentimental sap…” she had to regain control, In fact she glanced over towards the outside. Her sister’s light was gone.
She sighed and began to stretch a bit. She would have to find that woman, for all she knew Yune was going to get hurt, and man it was a pain when that happened. “ I don’t know what your plans are. But my sister and I have no alliances, not to Daton or to the Rebels, so don’t go thinkin we’re on your side, whichever side that is.” Of course this was just a way to change the topic of conversation. She had opened up and because of that she felt the need to close down.

"I have placed my eyes upon every text Daton has to offer, and that red-head has offered more documents that supposedly not even Daton has. It seems I shall remain. For now."
Evan explained. He then clapped his hand together.
"Well enough of me wasting your time. As I understand you and your sisters are travelers in these areas of the land. The temple has rooms made to accommodate traveling monks. But as most of the priests have fled to Daton's territory, I imagine there would be more than enough room for you and your sister."

Sci walked slowly into Esta he needed medicine quiet badly. In his fight against the soldiers he had been burned, stabbed, and struck in the calf with an arrow. But the soldiers were dead and he had the gold chain. The burn was healing,fire didn't effect him that much, but the stab wound was between two of his ribs and the arrow was close to an artery. He hadn't pulled it out fully but broken the shaft and left it be out of fear of cutting the artery. Sci had it tied though with a piece of his cloak to hold it steady. Though with blood flowing and anger surging he hadn't stopped since sunrise. His right side was covered in blood from the stab wound. He had scared the hell out of the soldiers when he surprised them and one had gotten a lucky stab in with his sword as he fell to the ground from a slash to the face. He wanted his money he wanted to wring the neck of the man who hired him and he wanted to get to a doctor.

Ray gave a laugh, a strange almost rich tone. This man was so funny even if he didn’t mean to be. It was all about the information. “well when I kill him, I’ll be sure to save those for you.” She knew of some texts but not many. Her father had a library of things but she never cared to look. She walked towards the door and paused. For his kindness she should offer him something. He was into texts and the information of all things right? She bit her lip but slowly turned and looked to the man once more “When the task I seek is complete… I want to give you something. My sister and I have no use for it, but maybe you can use it. Our mother left us a book. Well many books…. About history, the past that everyone seems to have forgotten, broken ties, spells, possession and how to bring the dead back to life… I’m not sure if any of it is true or not, but she was a celestial priestess… and we have no need for it. “
She reached and took a hold of the door “ I don’t like being indebt to anyone, so this is my way of making sure that doesn’t happen.” and she opened the door. She knew her mother’s things were sacred, hell her father couldn’t even touch them let alone read them. Ray had a hard enough time getting close to them. But Yunari could read them, touch the books and that was how she had learned most of her protection spells.
________________
Upon her walk Yune stopped. there were a few gasps and a cry of a startled woman. Being the curious creature she was, Yune fallowed and set her eyes upon the creature. He was bleeding, the man looked like he had been in a war of some kind and it took all she had not to throw herself to the ground at him. She pushed through the crowd a more dominate air around her. Her aura alone was enough to pushed weak willed people away.
He was strong, that much was true and from what she sensed, he was a creature much like her sister. She let out a sigh and took a place in the center of his path "stranger... slow me to ease you pain?" She held up her hands to show she was unarmed and offered a pleasant smile. She would heal him, it was nothing for her to heal a person, but from the looks of it this would take a moment or two to do because she was already analyzing his state of being.

Rena had left the inn and had headed into the town to meet a contact who was against the Rebals and loyal to her master. She met up with him in a alley way so that he could give her the information she had been looking for "Here you are . . . .he resides in Esta where he's helping it come back to life. Many other Rebals are there looking to get to your Master." Rena held a knife at the contracts throught so that he would not tell her any lies at all. "Is that everything you know?" she said in a dark tempting voice. She would only ask it once if he said no she would tell if he was lying to her or not if he was lying then he would be in a little bit of pain. She looked at him "yes thats all i know" she looked at him and he lied to her. She ran her blade along his throut so to catch the skin and bring blood to her blade "Next stroke is deeper" she said with a deep smile, having her hood up made it so that only people could see her mouth. "Okey Ah. . . the captain might have a weak spot but i don't know what it is, no one can find it out" he said, Rena looked at him, her eyes shining now. Those who saw her eyes never lived to tell about them. She smiled and then cut his throut again. "No one lies twice to me" she said as she dropped the body and jumped up onto the roof and looked in the direction of Esta. " So he's over there, " she gigled a little as she placed ehr knife in its sheeth on her thigh "this should be interesting" she headed in the direction and as she did whistling for her horse as she got her pase up and ran off the roof did an air flip and landed in the sadle of her black horse and began her short journey to Esta.

The Capital
Dark slide behind a walked through a bookcase that held no purpose and behind it he found inside a large room, with a large bed laying in the middle. Soft music playing from some device that Daton had found interesting from the old kingdom. Kneeling at the side of the bed, his head down as to not look at his Lord’s face. “The small uprising has been dealt with my lord, Blake also claims she is doing as you wish for once.” Dark spoke quietly as not to over speak Daton’s music playing, a thin hand reached over the edge of the bed and lay on Dark’s head. “You have done good my boy, is there anything I can give you?” An older voice came from the bed, his face hidden in darkness, but the blankets you could tell he was a small form and his bones were tightly showing against his skin.
This was the Daton that those of the Five Generals saw, a old man long since past his prime, however as one man found Daton was no what weak on any terms, he could change his shape and age in moments, his power was stronger then any that Dark had seen before. This look was so that Daton could save power. “I have lost two of my sub-generals, but I requested that the girl Mayumim to take one of their position, I can not have normal sub-generals I need someone that can not die easily. I request a dinner be held in honor of my selection.” Dark said quietly, he wasn’t sure how Daton might actually take that news, he didn’t think much when he agreed at the time.
He felt two hands slip around his head, the old man had changed into a younger boy, younger then Dark and was now sitting on the side of his bed, with both arms wrapped around Dark’s head. “We shall have a feast in her honor, will Hokyo be attending?” Asked Daton with a small chuckle leaving his lips as though he truly was the boy sitting with Dark at that moment, it couldn’t be helped that Dark had to lie. Daton’s mind seemed so weak that he would often forget what era he was in. Turning to face his lord, Dark bowed deeper. “No my Lord, Hokyo has still not given any word of his intentions, we are still playing the chess game.” Dark spoke, the last time he had informed his lord of Hokyo, two guards had lost their life in a moment.
Though he felt the boy’s arms go a bit weak and a deep sigh came from the man. “I should’ve known it would be Hokyo that could turn against me.” The boy spoke more to himself then Dark but in a moment was had leaped off the bed and grabbed Dark’s hand. “Help me dress for the event tonight; I’m never good at deciding formal dress codes.” Daton said, as he pulled Dark to his large dresser. Dark couldn’t help but smile at his lord, he was allowed to see Daton’s entire life in a single day and he enjoyed it.
Several hours later, Daton sat on his throne still as the little child that Dark had helped dress. Dark stood beside his Lord, the finishing touches were being placed in the main hall. Glowing orbs of light, floated across the main area extending a warm welcoming glow, three large tables laid across the main hall. Men from different area’s of the army sat at each table, a few of the sub-generals were already present along with a large servants which filled the tables with wine and food. “It’s a beautiful site isn’t it Dark?” Asked Daton sitting on his throne, his feet swinging above the floor like an eager child. Dark took a deep breath, he had been kind enough to put his hair back into a pony-tail on request of his lord, his face clearly seen now.
The black uniform suited his body almost perfectly, and the hilt of his sword rested at his side. His shield lay behind a few feet, he was never without it, and in such events he was always careful to be on guard with those that might attack his lord. He jerked a little when Daton clapped his hands together. “Please move the tables so there is a open area in the middle and find me some musicians. I wish to watch my dear Generals have a good time this evening and that includes dancing.” Daton spoke with a soft chuckle in his voice. Dark glanced at his lord, but remained silent he knew he would follow any order that Daton voiced, but to dance might be a difficult request. The servants went to work making room in the middle and after a few attempts Daton was pleased with the space. Now it was just a wait for the musicians and the rest of the Generals.

Red Rebels
Hokyo sat on his bed, his eyes focused on the table across the way. Papers were placed on there that he would need to see to. However currently he wasn’t allowed to move. Laying on his lap the small girl’s head rested, her small hand tightly gripping his black shirt, her blonde hair spread out across the bed. If one was to see her, they would see her as a beautiful woman, almost that of a goddess. She gave off such a glow and Hokyo looked down at her kindly. His hand gently rubbing the top of her head, making her sighs a bit and lean into his touch.
If anyone knew this was the reason for his betray of Daton. The girl that lay in his arms right now. Glancing up he noticed a soldier had entered his tent, but was very quiet about it, which Hokyo nodded in thanks. The soldier kept his distance and looked at the small girl. “We have reports of a man entering the town that was badly wounded; he seems to be in connection with our attack against the Lord in the area, what do you wish for us to do?” Questioned the soldier keeping his voice down, as he was aware of whom Hokyo was with. “Find him and make sure he gets proper treatment, after he feels completely better tell him to seek me out.” Hokyo spoke calmly, he had been expecting the man to show up, it wasn’t a surprise he had been wounded many would have hard time taking out a lord.
His eyes distant starring at the other side of the tent blankly, his mind racing to the number of times he should’ve been dead, the screams of the innocent begging him to spare them, he jerked a bit when he felt his shirt being pulled on, only to look down and find himself looking deeply into the dark blue eyes of the girl. “Brother don’t let your mind wonder, you always look so sad when you go away in your own mind.” Spoke the little girl, her hands spreading up along his face, rubbing one side of his face in a loving touch. He couldn’t help but lean into the embracing touch.
“No worries Ameena, I’m not going to leave you. I just can’t help but remember my past, if I forget it, I won’t remember why I have to defend such a sweet girl.” Hokyo said sweetly, his accent nearly vanishing. Ameena smile and pulled herself up wrapping her arms around Hokyo’s neck tightly. “Do you love me brother?” She asked inside of his ear, he felt a pain in his chest. He had killed many, those that didn’t even have a chance to fight back and yet, this girl sat in bliss beside him. “Yes I love you Ameena, I will love you for all time, one day I will make a world in which you can live in peace with.” He spoke gently, one of his hands holding her tightly against him. They both sighed and he let her go, she laid back down on his lap and closed her eyes again, a smile spread across her face.

The tree line that you would follow towards Esta left much to be desired for the scenery; however they were often filled with those that would attack people that went by. As it happens as Rena was riding she was being watched, a small body leaping from tree limb to limb. Bare feet touching as light as a person could manage, as she came into a clearing, a single arrow was shot out of the tree line towards her horse, missing and striking the ground before her. Then another came flying out, striking the ground behind her.
Slipping out of the tree, a boy no older then fifteen held his long bow drawn towards Rena. His hands shaking from holding the bow fully drawn, his thick long black hair nearly rested to his waist. He was in poor shape, his upper body was covered in scars, and his lower half was covered in torn leather pants, no boots and no other weapon besides his bow. However if you thought of him weak, his eyes could tell others that was a lie, such cold green eyes starring at Rena. “Give me all you have of coin, and anything else you have of value.” Spoke the boy, his voice cracking from the length of time without water.

Rena was in her own mind thinking about how to get more information about The Captain she was looking for when she had an arrow rush past her horse. The horse reared up. Rena held on "wow Neronis" she said gently and brushed the side of the horses neck to calm him. She looked around ready to take out one of her weapons. She looked around as then the boy jumped out infront of her horse holding the bow fully drawn at her. She smiled as her hood covered all her face apart from her red lips. She jumped down from the horse and looked at the boy. Her eyes shone silver blue from under the darkness of her cloak hood. She looked at the boy gently and assessed who he was. Hm clearly not one of the rebals and someone poor she thought gently to herslelf. "Are you entending to rob me young boy" she said in her demonic voice. Clearly he was in bad shape, She may have been an assasin for Daton and very loyal to him she still had a heart espeically to those who had no threat against her. She looked at the boy and then took off a water holder and threw it at him. "here" she said softly she was't going to attach him unless he made her otherwise but she had already decided not to cause him any harm.

The boy snatched the water out of the air, dropping his bow in the process. He quickly fought with the lid and opened it, pouring it quickly into his mouth, it over flowing onto the ground, spilling across his face and body. Setting the water container down, he growled a bit. He had in a moment of need forgotten he had no other way to deal with the woman besides his bow. “Sorry” He mumbled to himself, but enough to be heard by the woman, he had been raised properly and his mother would never forgive him if she found him not using those manners.
He looked at the woman for a moment and he realized that she was part of the Daton army, a rather ill attempt if it had been the General Dark or another he may as well have been dug his own grave. “Thank you.” He mumbled again, his hair far to long for it to be healthy, but he had been out in the wild for so long that he didn’t feel the need to cut it anymore, the more wild he looked the more often he got away with taking things from small groups of people.
“What General do you serve under? Or are you simply an assassin?” He asked, he couldn’t help but be interested in the Daton arms, up until about two years ago he had been considered to be serving under the General Hokyo. He had always liked both Hokyo and Dark, they were kind people and treated their men well, and he wished he could see them again. They always seemed to be fighting, and besides that his mother and family were protected by those two for standing their ground of not revealing his father.

Rena watched the boy as he drank the water and it splashed all over him. She knew he was out of the wild and hadn't been around people very much but she some how felt caring toward the boy. She nodded as he said sorry to her and as he looked her over. She had not reached for any weapons she had on her. She nodded once again as he thanked her for the water "it seemed as you needed it" she said softly to him.
She looked around the area to make sure no one heard him ask who she worked for or whether she an assasin. She looked him over again and then sighed. Since he seemed to be curious about her she thought she might as well show him who she was. She softly took down her hood "Indeed i am an assasin" she said softly. Her blue/silver hair shone in the light and so did her eyes. Those who knew what she looked like only knew her as LightStone. That in the army and by the rebals. LightStone was a well known name throughout any city because she was a well known assasin who answered to Daton himself.
She wondered how much this boy knew about the army and people.

The boy sighed in disappointment. “I had hoped that you were under General Dark or Hokyo, I’m sure they would like to know what happened to my mother.” He spoke to himself more then her. She seemed nervous, but why? It wasn’t as though he was actually able to beat her, he knew some control over his power but still it left much to be desired. It had been two years already and he could feel the sorrow of his mother fading, no one seemed to even care.
He wondered if he could talk to Lord Daton maybe he could go back to the Capital, but he hated that man. That man had killed his own mother because she defied him. His fist hit the ground, if he wasn’t sure a coward he would’ve joined the Red Rebels, but he didn’t feel he would do them any good either, he was simply just surviving in the world.

Rena looked at the boy as he seemed disappointed but she recognised the name Hokyo. He was the one she had been looking for but she didn't want to show it just yet. "I know Dark, he and i Serve the Lord closely" she said gently to the boy. She looked at him. The rage inside him that seemed connected to the mention of his mother seemed to drive him. He reminded her so much of her little brother that had been lost. She looked down and then back up. She wondered if she should not go after the Captain just yet and help this boy out.
"May i ask what did happen to your mother that drives your rage so much?" she asked boudly looking at the boy as he smashed his fist to the ground. She could tel he had strength but did not seem to be able to cal apon it so much.
"come with me" she said gently to the boy as she grabbed teh rainse to the horse and began to lead it further down the path. She knew of somewere to go that was close by. She walked to the side of the boy "i'll help. . ." she muttered looking down at the boy

The boy looked up at the woman. “A man killed her.” He spoke rather quietly in his own tone, of course he didn’t mention it was her Lord, he wanted to keep that to himself. He wondered if he could kill that man. He glanced at her when she offered for him to come with her. His eyes flashed away from her for a moment as in thought. “My name is Soma.” He said rather happily, rising to his feet and grabbing his bow and the water container she had thrown at him.
Placing the bow over his shoulder, his own body made a good carrier for the large bow. Walking after her a bit, he kept his head down; he must look silly following another person. “Where are you heading?” He asked, a bad habit he had since he could remember, he always wanted to know answers.
