Seph flapped her wings having predicted the dispelling thus saving her from the short fall to the deck "Well the underground is funny you see. It starts off getting really cold but then you don't have to go too far underground before it starts getting increasingly hot. Alpha would love the place if the tunnels were of a bigger size" she grinned landing on the deck.
Hebal yawned landing gracefully upon her feet "It's not that cold up here is it? I mean theres a slight chill but thats about it. Still we're almost inside... maybe we should go talk to a couple of dwarves as to whether or not they like the heat. she suggested running across the deck and bursting in through the door shouting "Wheee Hiya guys, guess who's back!" across the airship.
Alpha scratched his head "Well I guess mognet is easier for other countries to monitor but even so thats only if they start trying their luck attacking moogles. Mineerin is just afraid to try anything that is slightly new as in wasn't around 500 years ago" he concluded snickering a little as Hebal burst through "Woah there girl theres a sleeper in the cabins. You'll wake him up"

Felina smiled happily accepting the gem from Gil "Thank you so much for doing this Gil, Oassu would say the same only he's holding a guild staff meeting with Jenna. If theres anything I can do for you in return sometime, please let me know" she told him but covered her ears blocking out the sudden noise from Hebal "Oh hey welcome back but, wasn't Zadina with you?"
Satoshi laughed glancing over at Hebal briefly before turning back to Gil after a wave "We have 1 hour 15 minutes until our airship is due so can't afford to spend ages packing deciding on outfits and whatever else you might want to take" she joked going to her room.
Hayate smirked "Well Jeckhart must be a very tired man if he manages to sleep through that. Still if your birds are too identifiable its just as easy to monitor their movements if you can keep up. But I will agree with you that Mineerin doesn't like new things, neither do elves for if a system isn't broken you don't try to fix it right"

Gil nodded "Think nothing of it, I get to keep the prize money anyway so it's not like I didn't benefit from this either" he said pulling out his golden moogle whistle "Well I'm more or less wearing everything I need to travel" he said "I'll probably just leave the trophy here over the festival just useless weight otherwise" he said examining the golden sword trophy a bit "Going to send a letter first, back in a minute" he said leaving the trophy on the table before stepping outside and waving to the newcomers.
Itaka landed somewhat heavily but on his feet waving to Gil "Huh we must be the last ones to get back no matter least we won't need to fork up for an airship so late, Alpha was there so should hope he enjoyed it but yeah the dwarves have lots of gems and metalcrafting, could make some amazing things if they and the moogles worked together, shame they live so far away" he said.
Zadina giggled following Hebal inside waving to Gil as he passed "Hello everyone we're all back and happy" he said with a slight yawn "Miss Mari is making her own arrangements to get back to her own village though we'll need to pick her up afterwards of course" he said
Barbaros smiled waving to the newcomers "Well don't knock Mineerin so badly, my wife's from there, got proper sewers and the like at least it's not too bad" he said sitting back "Besides I think it's kinda impressive how well they've managed to preserve their traditions so long" he said

Seph paused giving Gil a polite nod as she passed "Well thats no surprise really considering we had a certain someone make an attempt to kill us but technically since Mari isn't coming back we're not the last ones here. Though Alpha wasn't bothered by it, those tunnels weren't deep down enough to give off any good heat for him" she shrugged leading Itaka down into the airship.
Hebal laughed bouncing around the room excitedly "Hehe sorry about that, didn't know. But yep we spoke to a very merry Mari this evening who told us to tell you to pick her up at her village after the festival. We also bumped into an Itaka and a Sephy. Was really fun having someone about who could keep up with my super speed" she grinned stopping by Alpha.
Alpha chuckled "Hey I have nothing against the people of Mineering, they've been good to me mostly but not all traditions are useful to have in the more modern, sometimes you gotta move forward. But most places do have a sewer system, in fact all places on that continent will for sure which is probably why its popular to live there" he answered turning his head towards Hebal. "Ok got it, I'll make a note. And that means once everyones packed we can go get you your Amane but will need to know where to go afterwards"
Hebal sighed scratching her head "I dunno I was just thinking I'll work that out when we pick her up. Or maybe tag along with you if you don't mind since your off to the circus right" she cheerfully replied then rubbed her hands together seeing the demon respond with a nod.

"But its not like you were really wanting to enter and this is worth more than the money.... still if you insist then thanks again" Felina sighed getting up from the couch. "I'm just going to start packing guys and I suggest you do the same Hayate" she told them wandering off.
Hayate shook his head and called back "Already packed and ready, had to do something while you were away." He then yawned and rubed his eye "I've got nothing against some traditions, shows a bit of culture. Though I bet your going to look so out of place when you see your kid Alpha, big fire demons don't seem the type to enjoy the circus much" he snickered.

Itaka nodded "Me and Seph will need dropped off too, my place isn't near enough Agralia for transport there" he said to Alpha before going to examine the trophy on the kitchen counter "Though maybe you and Hebal could have a race sometime since she has so much fun with it" he suggested to Seph idly before getting a drink of water.
Zadina giggled "I'm sure Miss Hebal can't wait to go pick up Amane and give her a big hug, maybe we'll get to see Melanae and Ardie too if we're lucky" he said hopefully before sitting on a stool by the kitchen counter to admire Gil's trophy.
Barbaros shrugged "Yeah you're probably right but I'm gonna go pack, since I've not had a chance to look at flights yet the sooner I head out the more dregs there's gonna be for us to fly back on" he said yawning "Also need to move my bike off the ship too" he remembered "Though we're gonna need to talk guild stuff Itaka" he added to Itaka.
Itaka nodded "Yeah sure I've been thinking up plans for it anyway lets go we'll discuss it while you get all packed up and sorted" he said having a drink before giving Seph a kiss and heading off to Barbaros' room.

Seph nodded placing herself down on one of the kitchen stools "I would be worn out all the time if I was constantly racing that little bundle of energy" she laughed reaching across for a can "Anyway you two go have fun making plans for your guild though no stupid ideas" she said returning the kiss.
Alpha rolled his eyes "It's a demon run circus in all fairness meaning I'll fit right in. But nah it's not my scene though not going to avoid my kids because of that. Bring Amane along if you want though I wouldn't advise taking her friends as theres only so many free tickets I can get. Though... might have to wae up Jeckhart to see where he wants to go.
Hebal grinned sitting down on a remaining stool "Yay sounds good, I just figured the circus would be a good first adventure for Amane since we never have anything like that in viera forests and you Zadina are welcome to join in the hug" she teased spinning around on the stool ruffling his hair.

Hayate paused scratching Cid's ears since Felina had left him to look after the pet while she got packed "Well theres not really any place in the middle of the forest where you can safely set up a big tent like those and put the caravans down. All the Yithra ones are set up just outside the forest. Though remind me again what plan you have to actually get Amane out the forest"

Zadina nodded his head "Well we're going to be seeing if we can get her out to give her some survival training to help with her pilgrimage and if that fails I can always invite her out on royal request which should help get her out of the forest" he said as Gil returned to the cabin.

Seph grinned soon unable to resist the temptation tofind something in the fridge to eat "Shame you elves and viera don't have the space. It's actually a good show, I've been there once and it had dragon tamers and people lifting up shoopuffs and the like" she recalled helping herself to a big block of cheese.
Alpha scratced his chin "Would the survival training thing work since you can do pleanty of that in the middle of the forest with its fiends. I would personally suggest using the royal invitation thing since your all friendly with them" he advised getting up to map his mark next to the stearing wheel.
Hebal smiled trying not to laugh at the big slab of cheese sitting on Seph''s fork "We'll get her out one way or the other with one of our mega cunning plans. I've never been to a circus either so its the perfect excuse for me and Amane to do something completely new. Though I expect to win at least one fluffy mega prize" she giggled

Hayate nodded searching through the papers on his pile "Well if you want to get a royal invitation from the king himself... I think I could make you a nice little forgery with the equipment I have since theres no way you could get Elorin to approve of anything. That would guarentee progress if a small letter from Felina doesn't" he offered putting his feet up. "I have been to a circus before when I was about Mari's age, it was impressive but I don't know how a demon circus differs from a normal one only I'm guessing a bit more extreme."

Zadina frowned "Don't you think my request would be enough?" he asked Hayate "Would I really need to ask Felina or Uncle Eliie for a letter?" he said somewhat sadly "I may not be immediately in line to the throne but I should my blood still holds some sway for the Viera" he sighed.
Gil shrugged "If it's any consolation I've never attended a circus either though I imagine a demon circus is rather impressive" he said sitting down on the couch and petting Enkidu "Not really my thing though I wonder how Demon Clowns could be extreme and not just plain scary" he chuckled.

Seph frowned "Hey, you don't have to look pretty to make a good clown and get people laughing. But theres no point of having a strong man if we have a semon as built as Alpha lifting about the usual weightd so gotta do big and flashy stunts" she said getting up. "In the meantime, if anyone needs me I'm gonna sort a few things out in my room"
Hebal gasped leaning over and pulling Zadina into a hug "Aww don't give me that little expression. If your not seen as important yet it's only because your really little and not so well known but thats easily fixed with time. And one day everyone will know how awesome you are" she assured him hoping to cheer him up.
Alpha yawned placing small markers on the map where he would be needing to pick people up "Relax Zadina, you just need to let your influence grow a little and he's probably just offering to be on the safe side since a lot of people couldn't name the entire royal family of a foreign throne. Though I never would have imagined you suggesting something like forgery" he added eyebrow raised at Hayate.

Hayate quietly laughed "Once or twice things like that are ok when wanting to help people but don't you go mentioning to Oassu that I ever suggested that. But cheer up Zadina, just think of Felina's letter there being for just in case they try to be difficult with you. People often don't take young noblemen serious because most are a lot more immature than you" he sighed trying to make the elf feel better.

Gil smiled "I'm not saying clowns have to look pretty, most clowns don't but I imagine all the claws and scales and fur that demons have only contribute to the whole 'scary clown' image" he snickered picturing Alpha with clown makeup on "I'm sure they are just as good at juggling balls and being clumsy" he said.
Zadina sighed returning the hug "I suppose you are right Miss Hebal it's just a shame so much is dependent on age, I don't really want to have to partake in the elven court to gain influence but hopefully I'll get some more respect once I'm older" he said
