Welcome to Gaia! ::

Seph laughed shaking her head "Trust me you don't want too much muscle, that to me just looks ugly when people go way overboard. If you wanted a little more you should practice with weights but I think your fine as is" she stated squeezing his arm "Well you're certainly not a weak human, especially when compared to someone like Zadina who has like no muscle at all"

Hebal giggled putting her knife and fork down "Yeah one day I'll be the super mega Hebal explorer of awesomeness and everyone will gasp in wonder for miles around!" she cheered jumping up and striking a pose "But you have to do something awesome too, don't want you being my sidekick cause your cooler than that"

Oassu frowned "Well she certainly wasn't like that more like a little green girl" he said thinking about it "Gil and Satoshi were the ones that met her and then she introduced us to Milly the magic pot but no we had a fine time just walking around the city, had a brief look at the market and stuff" he shrugged

Zadina nodded but then he needs to be up for the mega award ceremony for the final participants and special guests" he said working out in his head how many could attend of their group "with royal guests we might all be able to go" he said.

Itaka nodded "I guess so besides the worst body builders often have a little....help" he muttered "But Zadina's just a kid he might get a bit stronger with Gil's training I should hope" he said.

Mari smiled "Hey I wouldn't have a complaint about being your sidekick but we could just be equal partners if you like" she said "Since we're both really cool outcasts from our village" she said stroking Sophia.

Elithana nodded her head understandingly "Ahh in that case you must have encountered a nymph. The green ones are very friendly and have basic understanding of human speech, theres a small group in out forest. Its the blue ones you need to watch out for, they aren't at all friendly" she warned then cleared her throat "I remember the markets from when I first went there, was the first time I tried chocobo eggs... and the last too"

Hayate scratched his head uncertain "Now let me think... I am sure each fighter will be allowed to take a guest so thats potentially 6 people through and then you royals might be able to invite people.. Who knows what the rules are just yet but I could live without attending if theres not enogh invitations to go around" he shrugged.

Seph nodded "Sure we are both healthy though I don't do any muscle and weight training, though I used to a little but only on the tail because I thought throwing people around with it was a cool ability. And I have seen one or two bulky mages in my years but I have also seen what feels like millions of not so strong mages"

Hebal clapped her hands happily and almost knocked her glass over in excitement "Now that sounded so nice and it means we have a plan. If we don't have an airship or a chocobo or anything you can ride on my back and I'll jump us from place to place through the more boring travel areas" she proposed.

Zadina tilted his head in thought "Well....he's nothing special but if he makes Elithana happy that's what important and he seems nice enough" he shrugged "I have no strong opinion on him really not exactly known him long" he said

Itaka laughed "Your tail does a good job with me so your training has certainly paid off with your mega strength" he said tucking into his cake watching the staff restock the dessert table "Still might be interesting in finding one of those strong mages an arm wrestling with them" he said.

Mari smirked "Yep though don't you fret about it yet we're perfectly fine travelling with Alpha for now and might need to find a way to help Sophia along since she doesn't like falling from big heights" she said recalling her flight earlier.

Hayate paused taking a big gulp from his wine glass "Hard to get to know people half way across the table but never mind. They might ask you to do an important task at their wedding you know. You'll have to bring some cake back to the rest of the group who couldn't go... can do that if not everyone can get into the tournament after party too" he suggested.

Seph rolled her eyes "Wel dragons tend to be much bigger than me for one meaning proportions are different and we are totally different species too so don't bother comparing us. Though if you wish to hunt the globe for a muscular mage to arm wrestly I at least want something from it even if just a small treasure" she smirked.

Hebal sighed pushing the negative thoughts and worries from her head regarding the judges "Well they maybe they are just tightening up security or are having loads of trouble deciding which winners to put through to the next round" she optimistically suggested.
