Welcome to Gaia! ::

Felina nodded "They are rare on our continent, rarer than chocobos overall and outside the forest. Is there anything worth seeing in Mineerin?" she wondered taking off her coat and placing it down on the bench. "You mean like airship tickets for us? Give us some more information" she requested sitting on the couch arm.

Hayate chuckled sliding the tickets along the table "See for yourself, our flight is in about an hour and a half and should get us there for about 6am tomorrow morning meaning we can take a carriage and arrive in Yithra hopefully before midday. Sorry guys but there was limited tickets so you're flying third class meaning you don't get a cabin, only a seat" he explained putting his things away "The clone disappeared earlier probably to tell the real Satoshi about her own travel arrangements with Gil and yes Jeckhart is still sleeping" he repeated putting Alpha's question down to old age.

Satoshi nodded "Yep its pretty much the same plan. We'll be getting off at one of the nearest towns then teleporting a little way from the town then gotta do a good hike to the village so I hope you have good walking boots. Haven't taken this route for a long time but so long as we follow the direction of the river then we sholdn't get lost somewhere along the way"

Seph laughed gently letting go of Itaka and allowing the float spell to take over "I never thought you would be the superstitious type. Most of them couldn't do a thing assuming the dolls they had were proper ones. Only those naturally skilled in dark magic could make one work at that age like the vampire variety for example. Mu certainly couldn't when she was little" she assured Itaka.

Hebal shuddered sitting down while she floated "I've seen people in the dark association use voodoo dolls on badly behaved students. It's kinda freaky so lets move onto other stuff...wouldn't it be awesome if we could buy a doll version of ourselves from somewhere. Would be awesome dressing a mini version of me up" she giggled waving at a young gria staring in disbelief at the people above.

Alpha nodded walking up to the fridge. Reluctantly he took out the nonalcoholic option of a pint of milk "Well then that just leaves Mari to tell me what she plans on doing for the festival. Learned not to give my kids anything that could potentially explode long ago since one of them developed a habbit of making anything blow up that they could get hold of" he smirked.

Oassu shrugged "Well won't be so bad but if so many are going to Yithra I'm sure someone would give up their cabin for their princess" he chuckled taking Felina's hand "It won't be so bad, I didn't even know public airships could get beds on them you can always sleep on the carriage if it's trouble for you but that ship arrives sooner than I'd expect so we'd better go check our things are all ready" he said to Felina.

Jenna smirked waving to Cid "Sure they have stocks for small crimes, public hangings too and quite a strong military force like I said they are pretty set in the old ways not that it's all so bad, the places are still clean and they have some great banquets if your in the right circles to attend them I hear" she said.

Gil shrugged "Not really much time to sleep but I'll try seeing as it's late enough we'll just check into an inn when we arrive before setting off, I prefer to get there in one big trek rather than stop to camp in the mountains" he said doubting he'd get much sleep on an airship.

Itaka sighed scratching his sides where Seph's claws had itched him "Superstitious in a world with ghosts and magic, think about it Seph" he chuckled "Though that's still concerning seeing as every demon is born with some degree of magic whereas humans might need to work for years to learn magic" he said.

Zadina scratched his ear in thought "I'm not sure I'd like a little doll of me, would be too much voodoo potential considering you saw the Dark Association with it" he said shivering at the thought "Though we could always commission someone to make a nice doll of you Miss Hebal" he said "Would make a great present for Amane I'm sure."

Barbaros nodded "Well mon that's just common sense, they are childrens of a fire demon after all, flammable and combustible toys are not what to give them though I'll need to talk with Itaka about the guild when he gets back too and will need to go join the queue out there looking for an airship" he sighed.

Felina shook her head "No no I couldn't possibly ask one to give their cabun up for me since they probably reserved early and payed a lot of gil to get it. I'll just grin and bear it like everyone else usually has to who can't afford such luxuries" she muttered not looking forward to the journey. "But wow public hangings, thats somewhat barbaric and incredibly behind the times. All our executions are done behind closed doors and are only for the really serious crimes such as high treason and mass murder. Personally I don't know if I would want to be in the right sort of circles"

Hayate couldn't help but burst out laughing at Felina's complaints "You'll just have to put up with commoners travel for the night. Trust me the seats recline so its really not as bad as you think. As for Mineerin, it's not so bad really if a little backwards. You just get used to it and as far as places can go its reasonably safe to wander around in"

Satoshi sighed patting Gil upon the arm "Right I'm going to teleport us to the outskirts of the aerodrome in a moment, too lazy to walk it. Sorry the situation isn't ideal but it's probably the best one we could have got in short notice and it saves Alpha some time to be with his own family. We do have a cabin at least meaning we'll have a bed for the trip so could be worse for sleep"

Seph smiled thinking the answer was obvious "Well it was my mother who taught me my magic of course but all creatures are potential mages its just some take to magic more than others thus making better ones. Take Satoshi for example, she's no mage but can do tiny bits of magic that I've seen not jutsu" she pointed out snickering at the dwarf "Gotta give the guy some credit, theres still a good portion of dwarves who are afraid that they could fall into the sky"

Hebal giggled nodding her head "Yep dwarves are underground though how you can fall upwards I don't know. But some dwarves do travel and when you lot went to the dwarf tunnels I bet the presence of Felina and Hayate looked right funny to them. Maybe I would look funny in dwarf towns and citties too" she thought picturing herself having to bend down everywhere.

"Ever thought of looking to alternate communication methods to mognet. they can be harder to set up but great for privacy" Alpha suggested following Oassu and Jenna with his gaze. "The report I bet will be pretty short and simple. Only so much you can really say on Itaka since he started tagging along with us" he smirked.

Gil blinked somewhat surprised "Er well you got us here faster than I expected though we might have violated a few of the aerodrome's security rules but well done" he chuckled hugging Satoshi as they arrived "We'll see I'm sure we'll get something that will do for the night" he said waving to the others.

Barbaros smirked waving to the newcomers "Well no, I can't think of ways to set up communication with someone who you don't know where they are but if I'm leaving Agralia I'll be able to use Mognet again so it doesn't matter now but the report will also contain details on the guild's next movement" he said.

Itaka shrugged "Guess that's how it is but yeah I'd argue their own ninjutsu was tapping into some form of magic, somehow" he said as they floated into the hangar "Though yeah but it'd be odd seeing a Gria in one of their cities, to my understanding they hate being underground not that many have an interest in visiting the dwarven kingdoms" he said.

Zadina nodded "Miss Satoshi's ninjutsu do draw on the raw forces of magic I would say this 'chakra' stems from it though maybe of a specific form since it's far more limited in uses it would seem, black mages can use all the elements while ninja's seem to be confined to a few elements but she manages to get by fine" he said "Though you couldn't jump in a dwarven city Miss Hebal you'd bump your head on the roof" he giggled.

Felina almost jumped out of her skin not having expected the newcomers "Welcome back guys, got your transport sorted yet? And do you need any healing at all Gil" she offered placing Cid to one side on the sofa in case she needed to get up.

Hayate snickered only just noticing Satoshi and Gil arrive as he turned his head "I wouldn't recommend alternative forms of communication to mognet. It takes more time then you could afford to spend training birds to locate people and deliver" he shrugged indicating to wedge who was now perched upon the new and unused lamp.

Satoshi shrugged "I was just trying to get us here as fast as possible. We're back to pack but have an airship later though I'll have to make a mark on the map for where you can pick us up from since theres not really that many nearby towns to go by. Anyway will do that in a minute" she answered moving to her room and quietly telling Gil "What the aerodrome security doesn't know can't hurt them"
