((OxO *smacks hand over mouth* AIYA!! Her! Them! >__>;;; Sorry! My bad! Soon!))
Illusia rubbed the back of his head with his hand, sighing internally at the whole... mess. What else could he call it? Then he smiled sympathetically and walked up to where the Knight sat in an armchair and crouched. "Liozu." He said in a kind tone, one that you didn't hear too often either.
"Calm down. There has been many recorded resurrections in the past if we look into the history of the previous Dragon Lord. Albeit they were different and preformed by some kind of magic but..." He didn't know what to say. What could he say? The Yellow Officer smiled instead. "I think that as long as it doesn't give us, and especially you, any trouble there's nothing to worry about. Alright?"

"I suppose not. If just the daydreams would stop, it'd be easier, since I don't know when they'll come and that doesn't make me very dependable..." Liozu shrugged, and then, relieved at having had someone to talk to grinned and straightened in his seat, anxiety gone as if it had ran off him.
"Thanks, Illusia. I think I needed that." It felt strange to have to admit something like that, since Liozu preferred to keep things close to himself... especially such things that his more serious nature suddenly was left out in the open. He didn't like it, but at least Illusia had taken him seriously.

The older dragon smiled at the other before standing up. "You're welcome. Perhaps, now when you know everything about it, more or less, it will stop." Silence filled the room for a second then the officer looked over at the clock on the wall, eyes widening slightly in surprise. "Oh my...!" He trailed off.
"It's already 3 in the morning!" He said with a light laughter, rubbing the back of his head again. Had he really been up that long? Geez, not good. But then again... it had been good, for Liozu's sake.
((XDD NOW Aiketh may, if she wishes, come running in or whatever if she wishes. "It's bloody three in the morning and you two are up and in Illusia's office! Go to bed this moment!" XD;;;;;; *laughs* Could imagine that.))

There was a sharp rap on the door, even as Illusia finished his sentence. It was fast, marcato, but soft enough that it would not have woken anyone within the room.
Illusia aknowledged the request for entrance with an equally short greeting through the thick wood, and the wide door was carefully opened, allowing Aiketh access.
"Excuse me," her dark eyes flashed between the two men. Her gaze didn't question, but was merely given to include both of them in her speech. "I was doing some research in the castle library, and I came across something of interest concerning Lord Jett's whereabouts."
A worried tic appeared between her slender brows and she hesitated uncertainly for an instant, subconciously pressing her fingers into the cupped palm of her other hand.
"It is my fault for not remembering sooner," Aiketh began again, "but the return to the castle reminded me of the book Celia borrowed and, though that, of a few of the other tomes hidden away." She explained carefully, both wanting to fully show her own part in the situation and make sure that the other two both knew from where she was getting her information. "One book, in particular. There is an old travel log of sorts from when all of Arinas was under the rule of a single king. It details the years at the end of his rein and," she faltered, glancing guiltily away, "that no boat or ship has made safe passage to the lost continent since his kingdom fell."
A sticky silence filled the office, and Aiketh looked hastily back into Illusia's paling face.
"It seems that a barrier of demonic power has been set up extending across the ocean through the Isle of Beginning, and that this barrier has been cultivated and strengthened by various masters. It was weak at first, only capable of causing minor storms, but it has since strenghtened. By now..."
She fell silent, her gaze studying the wooden floor once again.
((Oh, I've been waiting to say that for so long. XDD;;; ))

It seemed that no one had heard Baran for a moment, when he saw a slightly weighed down puff-ball comming towards him through the air. Yoko had heard him, and started to fly over, but was also carying Celia's earth stone in his beak, so he was kind of bobbing through the air. Since he had been looking for it, he had been closer to Baran than the others. The little bird dropped out of the air, next to Baran, and put the stone down on the ground. "Hold. Back soon!"he chirped, before taking off more steadilly to go get someone more able to assist.
The first person he spotted was Jett. He landed on the dragon lord's shoulder, and then said "Baran!! Baran!! Come!!"and then flew back off, hoping the Lord would follow.

Baran sent a silent thanks to Yoko (or to the "parrot" as he still privatly thought of him) and sank back so that he was kneeling, knees fully bent, on the sandy beach. Even as he was regaining his breath from his dry shout, he could hear voices coming closer and the steady pounding of feet on wet sand.

Jett, perplexed, followed the parrot untill he saw the figure. "Baran!" He began to run towards kneeling Knight, sand flying about his waterlogged boots. "Baran, are you alright?!"

((Sujika: I just remembered that I'd been meaning to tell you that you can see Greyheaven in 22 on the Path of the Dead. <3 You probably noticed that by now, though. >>;;;; ))
Baran lifted his head tiredly, giving a weak wave with his hand, his strength slowly returning.
"Good," he managed to rasp, trying for a jaunty grin although it faded halfway into a grimace. "Are the others alright?"

((Really? *goes to look* Oh! There he is! And he even has his poor hat-demon with him!))
"Not quite... Celia has badly broken her leg, but here," He leaned down to help Baran up to his feet, "We've taken shelter in a cave. How about you? You don't look so well...."

((ACK! I HADN'T SPOTTED THAT! I am a bad Grey Heaven fan!! crying ))
"Baran alright?"chirpped the little bird, seeming genuinely concerned, as he picked up the earth stone (which looked rather overly large when compared with the small white puffball clasping it in his beak.) Yoko then took back to the air as best he could, head dipping below his wings with the weight, though somehow managing to stay in the air.
((You think the other random ghostie figure on the page (to the right if GH is in the middle) is supposed to be Nomala then?))

((All the demons they show are ones from various parts in the series. XD; I thought it was awesome. <3))
Baran flinched as he took the offered hand and struggled to his feet, quickly blinking back flashing violet spots. "I didn't break anything," he explained, looking up at the Dragon Lord, "I managed to avoid most of the beams when everything collapsed. I'm not sure what happened, though," Baran admitted, slightly embarrassed, "I blacked out before the crash and woke up here."
He glanced at Yoko as the bird dipped and fluttered in midair, gazing curiously at the stone in his beak.
"I think I slammed my head pretty hard somewhere along the line," Baran added. "Although part of my headache's probably from all the magic in this place."

The little bird blinked at him, while bobbing up and down in the air, trying to stay up. He almost seemed to be questioning why Baran would get a Magic-headache.

Baran grinned weakly at the small bird, then asked, placing the question to both Lord Jett and Yoko. "Where's Celia, anyway?"
