Gil nodded "Yeah but can you blame them? Moomba's are pretty cute shame Enkidu doesn't much like em, they growl at him and he growls right back" he said
Oassu nodded "You can go back and see them soon enough or write to them with Mognet I'm sure" he said playing with Felina's hand "And aren't the monster arena's supposed to be incredibly dangerous?" he asked
Itaka nodded "I'd rather not go graverobbing though, might make a few people angry and whatnot, even if they do bury their best belongings in those old tombs" he said shaking his head.
Mari giggled "Oh I could keep up normally but I've got the little ones to think about and I'm quite full actually just thought we should take a walk since you seem so full of energy!" she said ensuring Sophia and Ivy were comfortable.

Seph shrugged flicking a speck of dust from her wing "Not many people would mind or even find out considering the fact half the tombs made are forgotten about after a century. Therefore the way I see it is if you somehow stumble across one of these places you have no need to feel guity about recycling a few objects"
Hebal paused grabbing hold of Mari's hand walking for a moment before giggling and moving back into a run pulling Mari along with her "Come on you can do it Mari! A full stomach is like the ultimate time for training and stuff and I know your fiends are well looked after and happy so stop worrying"

Elithana shrugged "Sure they are because they are filled with loads of powerfull fiends but I can do things like that. Killed a few dragons in my time and the odd behemoths to name a couple of them and I can always invite two people along and go as a team. I know many who would jump at the chance so theres no issue"
Felina nodded "Yeah I shoud use the mognet more often though I have no luck finding the moogles unless ones already delivering stuff to me. Don't expect me to patch you up at the end of your holiday and I'll be ok with what your doing, it doesn't surpise me you could easily get a team as most of your unit of soldiers are... impulsive and overconfident" she quietly added.
Satoshi shook her head patting Enkidu's left ear "The moombas are probably just a little intimidated by Enkidu, his kind in the wild may have eaten moombas or similar ones. And I suppose I can't blame them though it feels so patronising sometimes when people talk to you as a fluffy animal. I kinda feel sorry for them a little"
Hayate chuckled swiftly getting up from his seat and putting a hand in front of Hebal to slow her down "Hey as good as exercise is, let the girl have some rest. Don't want to tire her out if she's fighting tomorrow... can make her run all day long through the after party"

Oassu frowned "Ok if you're sure but I hear they breed weird new specimens of monsters there that are stronger than ever so stay careful all the same," he muttered knowing the dodgy things he'd heard about monster arenas.
Gil chuckled "I dunno I think it's just you as while they are advanced life forms they still love all the cutesy little attention they get and don't mind being pets" he shrugged "Just because you don't have the same mindset as them" he said.
Mari gasped easing her arm away to ensure her pets were nestled safely in her arms "Yeah I'm not running because I'm carrying them not because I'm full" she said stroking Sophia who mewled slightly at the brief rush while Ivy snored on.
Itaka nodded "All the same those who do still care might get mad at the thought of us rampaging through their ancient relics" he shrugged "It just doesn't sit too well with me while people still care for the items we'd take" he said

Seph sighed still not being able to see the big deal "well nobody thinks of entering tombs or making notes of them before they pass away which is why so many get lost but ok ok, I won't take you on any missions or assignments I get given of that nature. And in case you haven't guessed all those stories about tombs containing traps are false 95% of the time too"
Hebal gasped almost running straight into Hayate "Ooh you were over here mega fast, I am so challenging you to a race some time" she announced before bouncing past him with Mari "ok ok no running, though if we keep on walking for hours longer we'll be able to burn all this food off in no time or make it all into mega muscles"

Elithana covered her mouth while she yawned but nodded her head "Oh sure they do in all the places it is legal to do so but they only let in the high scoring regulars to those fights so they most likely wouldn't let me in unless I defeated like an army of giant tonberries first or something difficult like that"
Felina frowned shaking her head slightly with disapproval "Well that just to me sounds wrong breeding some weird new fiend abomination thing for sport, I hope you don't go encouraging them to breed them as dad banned it in our forests for a reason"
Satoshi paused thinking over the idea "Maybe you're right but until someone makes a moomba thought translator or can learn to speak moomba then we can never be 100% sure how they feel about things. They might just be little entertainers who like to humour us all"
Hayate smirked reaching for the slice of cheesecake he originally got up for "Sure thing Hebal but we both know you would win that race unless over a long distence" he laughed before returning to his seat.

Oassu frowned "Actually it's illegal in most places due to the massive amount of risk involved normally if they do lose to those monsters they don't survive even if the beastmaster intervenes" he whispered quietly "I wouldn't recommend getting into those battles" he said.
Gil chuckled "Well apparently the race that evolves into them can sort of communicate with them but they seem nice enough though I hope they don't feel terribly unappreciated considering how we should revere them." he said.
Itaka nodded "At least not any tombs anyone still cares about don't want any angry populations chasing after us for defiling ancestral grounds" he chuckled "Still I dunno the abyss had plenty of traps when we went down there" he groaned.
Mari smiled "Well maybe I'll join you for a jog tomorrow I think these two are too tired to go running anywhere really but I'm sure Zadina would appreciate the workout" she said.
Zadina hopped around from the other side of the dessert table "What was that about me miss Mari?" he asked hearing his name while holding a large slice of chocolate cake in his hands.

Seph shuddered a little recalling the events "Oh yes but then again the abyss holds many secrets and dangerous things, not just the one we uncovered I believe. Not somewhere to go back to in a hurry but most tombs do not have anything anywhere near as important to keep away from the everyday person" she assured him unfolding her wings "Still they couldn't chase after us if I fly us to safety"
Hebal grinned waving to Zadina "We were just talking about exercising and stuff and then Mari suggested after your Gil training I could give you Hebal training which is basically how to make you faster so you can go zoooom around the table like I can" she explained.

"I won't be doing any of those fights I can assure you, I'm all for keeping to the law since I often end up enforcing it at times" Elithana reassured her Oassu while she played with her knife on her empty plate "Theres also many cases where they turn on the beastmaster and kill them too and go rampant. An incident like that is what banned it originally"
Felina smiled relaxing in her chair "I also heared though some monster arenas are breeding loads of fiends to make them less hostile, particularly the stronger and more dangerous ones. Now fingers crossed one of our items won't need to be obtained via an arena or fiend hunting"
Satoshi grinned stroking Gil's arm "Well I haven't seen many attacking people so they can't be too upset I suppose. Most of them aren't even kept as pets and just frolic around freely in the jungles never to see a human in their little lives. Maybe I'll let Zadina help with Terrato a little more if he wishes he could have a pet" she pondered.

Oassu nodded "Good and it's hard to breed them so they are less hostile, would weaken them in battle though they can be domesticated but don't you think the monsters that the beastmasters raised getting killed all the time would make those beastmasters sad?" he pondered.
Gil nodded "He might like that if Terrato likes him, not quite his own pet but I'm sure he'll be fine" he said happily "Though you probably won't need to become a moomba to get to the final tomorrow" he said.
Itaka frowned "There's more back there?" he muttered "I kinda hope there's nothing back there that could cause trouble" he muttered thinking "What is the abyss actually? Why is it there?" he asked.
Zadina tilted his head curiously "Oooh it sounds really useful I wonder what I'd have to do for it..." he pondered "You are certainly very healthy and I'm sure it would help me aid Miss Amane on her travels" he said happily.
Mari giggled "I'm sure it would, you'd need a lot of energy though and I think Gil training will have you tired out tonight since it's getting dark already" she said watching Boco snooze outside the window "Still eat up your food and you'll have plenty of energy to burn" she said

Seph sighed struggling to find the right words to explain her answer "Well... the abyss is... its kind of a giant vault or prison nowerdays but that wasn't why it was created. It was originally a place used by demons to spawn fiends into the world to command but the magic or whatever device that they used was deactivated and sealed away in there along with other more dangerous items and people" she eventually answered hoping she wouldn't have to answer too many questions.
Hebal nodded her head proudly "Hebal training involves a lot of running and jumping and moving around so you become quicker on your feet, could improve balence too. Can always do it tomorrow if tired tonight as Gil will be all busy fighting and ignoring camera people all day long"

Elithana shook her head "Not necessarily, think about farmers for example who raise pigs and chickens and things like that only to have them sent off to a slaughter house to be made into food. It's probably no different to that really, some people can live with it and others can't" she stated glacing at Felina while she said the last sentence.
Felina paused wishing she could come up with an answer as good as her sisters but soon sighed "Yeah I guess thats true and people who breed birds just for archery target practice. I don't know if all fiends can be domesticated though, it's pretty hard for some to be friendly when it goes against everything in their nature"
Satoshi hiccuped while she nodded her head "yeah you're right though it was pretty good sitting so close to the match when I was in moomba form. Terrato doesn't mind most members of the group and I won't name which ones he doesn't like so much which means its a question of is Zadina one of those people who doesn't mind snakes in general"

Oassu shrugged "I guess so if they didn't want their fiends to die they wouldn't run an arena like Mari does and she does a good job domesticating tonberries" he chuckled "And they are known for being some of the more violent fiends.
Gil nodded "He seemed ok before with him" he said "Besides I imagine the front row seats are already all gone" he said stretching "So moomba or not I doubt you'll get down the front" he said.
Itaka stroked Seph's wings "Alright you don't need to say anymore, I'm still a little curious about what you did when you went there with Hayate" he said sipping his drink "Still good it's all inactive now" he said relaxing.
Zadina frowned "I dunno Miss Hebal that sounds incredibly tiring like I'd be run into the ground and stuff by the end of it" he said quietly.
Mari smiled "Well you need to be incredibly fast and flexible to be good like Sir Gil, besides I'm sure Hebal would be lovely and nice to you while training plus you could really impress Amane I think" he said

Seph groaned a little reluctant to answer "Well based on the notes he gave me it wasn't that we were searching for something, more that we were trying to put something away. But enough of that, hopefully we won't have to go through all those unused doors and continue on through the tunnels leading to all the different objects or else we could be wandering for days down there"
Hebal nodded again a little disappointed by Zadina's response "Uhuh what Mari says is true, you need to be faster than sir Gil because he can use so many more swords than you. Besides, wouldn't it be cool to learn how to run up the side of buildings and jump across rooftops cause I could teach you that in my speed training" she informed him hoping to convinve him to change his mind.

Satoshi smiled making a mental note to offer Zadina the chance to babysit Terrato "Tickets don't go on sale until midnight for the final match then the rest of the tickets get sold from the moment the match line ups are announced. So true, unless I want to spend the rest of the night queuing up and pushing in there won't be any at all available"
Felina laughed looking around for where Sophia had got to "She's a pretty cute little thing for a tonberry, appears to have taken a liking for cakes and is friendly enough to you so long as you aren't mean or scary with her. Its a shame Cid is too scared of her to try and get to know her more"
Elithana rolled her eyes thinking to herself that it was no wonder Cid was staying away from Sophia "Tonberries are not hostile fiends. Well they are but not in comparison to a lot of fiends because they are reactive rather than proactive, leave them alone and they leave you alone and all is fine"
