[Enchanted Dominion: Maleficent's Castle -> Castle Oblivion]

Zekvyr dipped his head respectfully, not quite a bow, but deferential. He placed a palm on the wall, and watched as the surface was covered by a dark portal the size of a single door. He looked at the fairy to see if she was following, then stepped through.

The corridors of Castle Oblivion awaited. The kitchen area was a ways away, out of earshot and out of sight; just like he wanted it. It would hardly do to introduce her to their unique group immediately. He stepped aside and waited for her to emerge.

[Castle Oblivion]

"I would ask you to wait. My superior would have a word with you. He prefers to be familiar with those who are roaming his castle; most who come here come by his invitation alone."

He motioned to a nearby door. "Inside is all that you may wish for," he said, and he did not exaggerate. That room was his own, and like the rooms of all the members, it was designed to portray whatever its owner wished. Zekvyr wished it to show the fairy whatever she wished. He also wished for any collected items of his to remain hidden from her sight, although the most powerful ones he already had on his person.

"However," he said, "If you'd prefer not to wait, there is the kitchen..." he trailed off, looking down the hall, where sounds of conversation could be heard. "Just don't spill the tea."

[*~Youni~*]
"...."


[First district: Merlin's Hut]

....Everything started with-

..a sin against nature.

Youni’s brows raised a little, which was a large amount of expression for her. Even raising her face from the tea pot, the girl silently contemplated the question for a few moments. Did she want to see Window?
Wanting to see someone.
Want.
Youni didn’t want anything. She was only curious. Wasn’t she?
“Does Youni want to- ?”
She repeated back, like the concept of self wasn’t computing properly, so the phrase was being regurgitated. Her eyes blinked once, twice, then rapidly again.
“Do-... want?” Perplexed, Youni’s neutral expression transformed, and she looked, Troubled. This lack of self awareness, grasping the idea of personal desire or will, it wasn’t clicking, and it was causing a physical and mental unsettlement.

“..Aerith, does Youni want to see Window?”

Tsurumi

I'd prefer if you were to just...

...disappear

{Castle Oblivion ~ Common Area}

Silently sipping at her tea, Tsurumi listened to the conversation going on, filing away the information for later. These 'Keyblades' while powerful, didn't truly interest her. She liked the wind better. Harder to predict, no unnecessary clashing of blades. It had much more finesse to it than simple blades. Instead she felt the wind around her, sending it out of the door and into the rest of the castle, aiming to explore as much as she could from where she was.

However, that train of thought came to a stop when they were told they would be overseeing what happened to this 'Wonderland'. It would most certainly be interesting to see what he was capable of. And to imagine that even the whore seemed to fear him. She wasn't sure if she'd be able to defeat him. But as long as he let her cause as much chaos as possible, she wouldn't have a problem with him.

Relaxing into her tea again, she focused more on exploring the castle, having to stop once again when she felt a disturbance in the winds just outside of the door to the kitchen, out in the hall. With just a bit of reading, she realized it to be two people, appearing from nowhere. Presumably out of one of those convenient dark corridors. And if it was a portal, that would mean it was one of the Conclave.

Glancing over at Vereor, she pondered if he knew they were there. Well, she might as well let him know regardless. "Vereor dear, two people are about to walk in on our lovely tea time." She said this in the lightest of whispers and sent it breezing over to him that passed near his ear. In theory, he would be the only one to hear it. She had yet to learn who Aria was, so the sound nobody would most likely hear it as well.

That done, she looked over at Shade and smiled. "Come and have some of this delicious tea my pet~" Oh, she would make Shade her pet eventually. After a long enough time, anyone would wear down.

+Saito+

{How can one possess the Heard of the Sword. When one does not have a heart?}

{Castle Oblivion : Kitchen}

Saito remained silent after Vereor spoke regarding the portals as well as the plans to go to Wonderland to see it's downfall. He remembered the man, their superior, the one Vereor had called Kyozuto. The feeling of sheer darkness that he felt from the man, almost overwhelming to the ronin. He could still see it in his minds eye as with his help, Kyozuto drew the heart of the world out of the shrine which he had once protected. The Nobody had no regrets, and still didn't for the fate of the world Edo. To the others, though he was deep in thought, it would seem as though he was simply focused on his tea.

His attention did turn though to the group that was discussing the Keyblades... The fallen samurai knew a bit about them. Not too much though, only what had been told of them in the legends on his world.

"The legendary keyblades... I've only heard about them from the stories told on Edo. Supposedly they are strong enough to cut through just about anything, despite the fact that their blades are typically blunt..." Saito added to Zigmund's remarks.

Saito had been a samurai, if there was anything that he should truly know about it was weapons...

[[Masenko-Ma]]

[[Castle Oblivion] .:. [Kitchen]]

"Go ahead, Vereor, pour Busty Guzungas a cup of tea, haha!"

The ninja then turned his attention back towards Zigmund and grinned before saying, "What Saito said is pretty accurate, but there's more to it than that! Keyblades can unlock anything, including a person's heart and the heart of a world. As well, it can lock anything and can only be wielded by its master. They can also change shape, from something as small as taking on a new design or transforming into a vehicle. Keyblades' powers are vast.... vast enough for a man to WASTE his entire life learning about them."

Zigmund

Castle Oblivion: Kitchen

Zigmund laughed his cold laugh and leaned back into his seat "Well, then consider my pseudo life wasted, because vastly powerful weapons and artifacts like these Keyblades are the exact sort of thing I've been looking for over the years"

This was exactly the kind of thing Zigmund had signed up for; the opportunity to discover new weapons, new paths to power through knowledge. His specialty was magitek, but their was no reason he couldn't branch out and enter new fields.

After all, these Keyblades sounded to good to pass up.
