Gil nodded "All right so long as you healed up fine, you ninja should think about wearing some form of armour maybe something simple and light but yeah medics are good with their hands since they have to be precise and nimble, plus they'll know all the tricks to stay in the best of health" he said.
Oassu nodded "I do like berets but didn't think the elves would have that many of them it's more an Agralian dresswear" he said examining the clothes one last time "Alright I'll trust your judgement that this one looks fine so I'll take it" he said.
Zadina giggled "The clouds are actually kinda boring they don't talk back but yes you can say hi" he said "Though yes I suppose it's only fair if we go on an airship ride though we may need to take one in the pilgrimage" he said "Still lets go be nice and try and see Miss Melanae" he said.
Jeckhart frowned sensing some ulterior motive for visiting the fiends "I think part of the challenge will be tracking down Zadina and friends as opposed to persuading your mother no doubt they'll be off having fun already" he said

Hebal shook her head "Not likely, Amane doesn't wander into the forest as she's not allowed to without permission. Plus the village isn't very big so she's probably just playing nearby with her friends, or at one of their houses or at the playpark most likely. Though if your out of elixirs I doubt you'll get anything epic from Milly if thats what your thinking" she added with a snicker to Alpha.
Alpha grumbled knowing what she said was probably true "Still theres no harm in trying "Well its worth a try isn't it, you never know there might be something else in the world that she finds just as interesting. But good to see Amane is well behaved, all of my kids went through a rebelling stage and completely ignored me half the time I told them not to go somewhere"
Amane nodded already skipping off in the direction of the house "The clouds may not talk back but its pretty cool that they are shaped like stuff and maybe one day with magic you could make the cloudes make the shape of letters to make a message in the sky" she pondered unsure if it would be possible.
Ardie yawned turning to see Amane speeding away from them already "I agree the clouds aren't anything special and you can't even see the shapes up there I bet" she rolled her eyes before dashing off after her friend "That or we takea boat across the ocean on the pilgrimage but the airship is faster and more exciting anyday"

"Armour is impractical. It makes too many clanging noises for one to be stealthy" Satoshi explained pushing a tree branch in front of them away from her face. "Then theres the fact the medic knows that people are relying on them to stay alive, hense why they are trained differently and more defensively than the regular ninja"
Felina grinned pulling Oassu along by the hand to the footwear section the moment he had made a decision "That was a pretty fast decision. Decisiveness is something that a lot of the noblemen will at least like you for" she teased grabbing hold of Cid, spying him planning to hop away onto one of the jumpers "Maybe he's a little cold too. Berets do appear in elven shops its just that they aren't fashionable at the minute but that can change at any time really"
Yenytai gasped "Hey waiiit Amanay! Yenytai no keep up when Amanay go real fast. Yenytai only has little legs and snow makes toes feel sad from cold" she complained almost slipping over."Maybe clouds no talk back because they are shy or maybe no know human speaking language like yours" she suggested

Gil nodded "Bet most Doctors would think it was quite exciting to be able to do all the athletic feats and ninja tricks that you can manage but I'm sure you can get reasonably tight armour that isn't heavy or loose enough to clank I'll have words with my armourer and see if he knows anything that could help you" he said.
Oassu smirked "Well sure though I'm not exactly interested in them enough to care about their approval besides it's not like they all hang around your palace for the dragon festival do they?" he asked imagining nobles had their own houses to relax in.
Zadina giggled picking up Yenytai and placing him on his shoulders "There you go Yenytai this'll keep your toes happy though you should use some socks if your feet are cold and the clouds talk occasionally but they have very deep voices and always sound grumpy and angry" he said following Amane as fast as he could.
Jeckhart shook his head "Not likely Alpha Magic Pot's are notoriously specific with what they want though I've not met this Milly person, how is it that you managed to meet a magic pot much less learn it's name?" he asked.

Amane raised her eyebrow curiously "Is that also when they make lightning come down and destroy trees? But I have an idea, when I'm on the airship later, I'll try and catch a bit of cloud to bring you back as a present, how hard can it be really" she offered to Yentai
Ardie snickered seeing Zadina lift her fiend friend up "She's managed the snow every year so far you know, your gonna get really fat if people are carrying you about all the time and feeding you lots of yummy treats too often, you lucky spoiled nymph" she teased.
Hebal grinned skipping away into the more familiar streets near to her mothers house "We got told by another fiend what her name is, it's funny that some fiends are able to speak, very unusual and those ones at least tend not to be hostile unless of course they are a demon" she explained curious as to how Yenytai got so good at speach.
Alpha shrugged "You have heared of the slightly more advanced and friendlier fiends. One of those took a liking to Gil and Satoshi especially last time we came here, she followed them around and eventually took us to see her friend. A magic pot she named Milly. It made the whole lot of us rich except for Hebal who chose not to exchange her elixir for diamonds. Better to have one of those creatures as a friend than an enemy for sure"

Satoshi shook her head "It's not just a case of being nice and tight, our current clothing is a giveaway of that. It's also a case of mobility. If I want to perform many athletic feats required by ninja I need to be in clothing that can allow flexibility and armour is the worst sort of clothing you can be wearing for that and..." she trailed off for a moment listening to the forest. "Can you hear that? Based on the sound of the water up ahead, I think its safe to say we're pretty close to the back enterence to the village and the one with the more shallow water you'll be pleased to know"
Felina paused "Well one or two more local nobles might drop by in attempt to suck up, perhaps my great uncle if he's fit enough to make the journey and thats it really in terms of the nobility. But almost nobody is around at the time of the festival. Even important people like Dysocu are away for the festival seeing family and whatever. Means you will probably get away with a lot more at this time of year than ever not that you should be getting ideas" she laughed admiring the many shelves of shoes.
Yenytai gasped in surprise but soon cheered with excitement happy to be whooshed around "Wheee... hey, Yenytai not going to get fat. Theres little food for Yenytai in snow time so Yenytai usually lose lots of weight over that so has to overeat in flower time" she defended herself despite not caring about her weight in the slightest. "Yenytai thinks Amanay should try and catch cloud, but not if itmeans hurting cloud or cloud will be really angry when released again"

Gil chuckled "If you say so but I've seen some pretty athletic forms of armour, take the armour Seph wore during the tournament for example, not that I'd suggest you wear something so distasteful but just saying some light stuff if out there" he said "Still good to know we're there, kinda excited to see your village now we're close" he said.
Oassu snickered gently tugging Felina away "Lets get me sorted first then you can spend all the time you like looking at shoes before I freeze" he said "Though of course I won't steal from the palace if that's what you're getting at don't wanna screw up my chances, because even if I am a master thief who'd never get caught being the new guy in the household would earn me plenty of suspicion" he said moving back to the jackets "Still need a jacket to wear under this cloak and then I can choose a beret" he said.
Zadina nodded "Yep Clouds are nice and quiet most of the time they only seem to talk when they get mad but maybe you can catch a cloud if lucky though I doubt it's possible to hurt a cloud Yenytai so don't worry" he said.
Jeckhart nodded "Those fiends are peculiar, it used to be be only darklords could converse with fiends though clearly some can be at least tamed, the friendly fiends also seem to be drawn to one another which is probably how you encountered two together though you shouldn't exploit your relationship with Milly for money Alpha that is greed." he warned.

Alpha chuckled "well what can I say really, I'm a demon of greed so its only in my nature but tis not my fault only money and shiny things are seen as valuble in the world nowerdays. But does it surprise you that some of the smarter fiends can develop speech when folks like myself are hanging around? None of the friendlier fiends are stupid in case you haven't already noticed."
Hebal tutted unimpressed "Maybe so but you shouldn't use that as an excuse to be greedy. Even demons can be lovely and sin free if they work at it and be like angels" she scolded almost leaping over a wall as a short cut nefore remembering her friends couldn't follow. "Well I'm not going to complain, especially if a magic pot is going to be making sure Amane is safe if she ever were to somehow get attaced by something in the forest.
Amane nodded covering her face while she let out a huge sneeze "Clouds are only made of cold air and water I think so catching one certainly won't be painful for anyone unless I fell off the airship or something but I don't plan to be that silly and I would would hope that someone would be arond at the time catch me"
"I'm sure theairship will have railings to stop stuff falling over the edge but you can use floaty magic and all sorts to break your fall or maybe you could summon a few birdies to help out" Ardie pointed out knowing that her friend was able to summon a few creatures. "If you say so Yenytai just remember not to overeat while in the flower time"

Satoshi shuddered a little "No thanks, Seph's armour didn't exactly offer much protection when you consider how little it actually covered up. I'll just stick to my usual clothes and keep training extra hard in my evasion skills" she concluded speeding up and pulling Gil along behind her "It feels a little strange for me, it's the first time I've taken an outside home with me though prepare to wade through a little water" she warned.
Felina frowned making a quick note of one or two pairs of boots that she liked the look of "I meant the street as well as the palace but thats good to know dear" she smiled holding up a red jacket against him "Maybe we should kit you out in a scarf and gloves and everything" she pondered pulling Oassu into a hug.
Yenytai yawned "Yeah yeah Yenytai knows not to eat to much and will try and remember" she mumbled too busy bouncing around on Zadina's shoulders enjoying the ride "Yenytai thinks Zadeena should go faster and make Yenytai go whoosh in the wind" she commanded him with a small giggle.

Gil chuckled "Well I didn't mean her armour but you can get stuff that's light mythril itself is phenomenally light but nevermind it's not a big deal if you do fine as you are" he said trying to peek ahead to see the village "Well hopefully your village will be friendlier than the Viera to outsiders, are outsiders rare in your village?" he asked.
Oassu chuckled returning the hug "You're affectionate today but sure though I don't think a scarf will work with a cloak do you think?" he said "Still will red go with the silver cloak do you think? Won't it clash a bit? Not that it doesn't look nice" he said.
Zadina frowned struggling a little to run a little harder "I'm trying Yenytai but Miss Amane is very fast though you needn't worry I'm sure your mother could jump and catch you or I could cast float on you if you needed a soft landing Amane" he called ahead.
Jeckhart smiled slightly glad Hebal was on his side "Precisely Alpha it is important for us to overcome our sins to transcend to our Angelic origins and receive our old powers" he said with a matter-of-fact air "Still are we near your mother's house Hebal?" he asked.

Amane came to a sudden stop almost slipping in the snow as a result "Come on you guys, almost at Melanae's house now. But are you ok there Zadina as you look a little tired" she asked taking the opportunity to stretch her legs "So long as I don't go splat on the ground below I don't care who saves me be it some weird demon or a nice cuddly viera.
Ardie smiled ignoring the sound if herself panting slightly "Don't work too hard Zadina, you have a circus to go to and it would be no good if you fell asleep while everyone was performing stuff for ya later on" she told him taking a look around. "See that house with the funny blue coloured roof? Thats where Melanae lives"
Alpha yawned stopping himself from rolling his eyes "I'm not all that interested in overcoming sins and getting old powers and whatever else. I'm just at that age where ya think, lifes too short to worry about things like that so you may as well have as good a time as you can" he shrugged feeling the sudden urge to buy himself a drink.
Hebal sighed quickly forming a mental map of the area in her head "Yep we're almost there but since you can't jump fences we're going to have to walk it and then you shouldn't miss the house" she explained changing into a skip as she linked arms with both Jeckhart and Alpha. "If you insist but theres always time to change and become a super shiny angel person. I bet one day Mr. Jeckhart will look just as shiny as Kimino if he keeps up being nice. And then you'll be all jealous" she encouraged.

Satoshi nodded laughing at Gil trying to get a peek "It's rare to have outsiders in the village though most are welcome enough. Many of them are traders and potential clients who want to speak to us directly rather than through one of our agents. Though I wouldn't bother trying to look for the village. The enterence to the village from this side of the forest, is located by
going through a cave hidden nicely behind a waterfall, hense the wading part"
Felina nodded letting go and putting the jacket away "Is there anything wrong with taking advantage of our private time with a little bit of affection" she laughed holding up a dark blue jacket instead "Well this one clashes a little less as you don't want too much of a similar colour like white and silver. Could do gold and silver but thats probably a little much too. And some people will wear anything together if it keeps them warm" she cheerfully added.
Yentai grinned hopping down from Zadina' shoulders now Amane had stopped "Melanae has funny house, Yenytai don't get why one would want roof same colour as sky. It's confusing" she remarked hopping from one foot to the other. "Amanay no go splat or forest will be sad and messy and make place smell too" she quietly added.

Gil nodded "It's not a problem really so long as I can stand in the water, can't exactly float in this armour y'know and so long as Enkidu can swim in it though he's pretty good in water unlike me" he chuckled petting his fiend happily "Still glad to be a rarity in your village" he said
Oassu smiled nuzzling Felina "Nothing wrong with it at all but sure though I don't think Dark blue is really my colour but whatever you think suits me best will be good" he said glancing over at a deep purple jacket. "That one isn't bad but I'm not sure it'll go with the cloak" he said.
Zadina shook his head "You needn't worry Yenytai I won't let Amane go splat, she's only going away for a couple of days anyway" he said "I remember Melanae's house from the last time I was here the roof is a little unusual I suppose still lets go say hi" he said enthusiastically.
Jeckhart blushed "Well I-I don't think I'm quite that close to ascension but it's nice of you to say so still your village is bigger than I expected a standard Viera settlement to be" he said struggling to keep up with Hebal "It's a shame you weren't able to spend time growing up here" he said

Hebal nodded following the fence around the corner "Yeah it's a bit of a shame but my childhood did have the occasional bit of fun now and then. Only about 90% of it revolved around training, getting yelled at for not being good enough and being taught why morals are overrated. And then fortunately, any scars I got can't be seen underneith my fur" she added poking around where she thought they roughly were located.
Alpha frowned counting each area Hebal pointed to "I'm surprised that operation wasn't shut down sooner by some group such as Kimino's. I hope its not still running, even demons tend to have happier upbringings than that and some of them are right nasty creatures. But glad your ok and if you see someone you recognise from your past please shout up and I'll bash em about for you"
Amane nodded swinging open the gate "Good to know that I'm not going to go splat but Melanae's family are unusual as a whole. It's kinda funny seeing how much attention her dad gets from being the only male viera in the village or for many miles around too" she giggled realling the amount of stares she saw him receiving once.
Ardie snickered "Do people even go splat really after falling from a great height. Nobody ever has died that way I bet for anyone to find out because something is almost always there to break a fall. And I like the blue roof, it makes the house easy to spot if you ever get lost amongst the estate or even in the trees if you've been clibing forever"

Satoshi smiled happy to see the trees getting fewer in number and more spaced out as shuffled closer to the river "Oh even better news, the current isn't especially fast making things easier still" she told him looking down at the water the moment it was in sight. "And this is our enterence and when I meant cave I meant more... a thick archway" she muttered making sure Terrato was in her bag and that was fully sealed up "Heh I learned long ago it would be a good idea to invest in a bag which was waterproof"
Felina shook her head picking up the jacket "Nope this could look good with the cloak, try it on" she encouraged opening it out for him. "It's fun I think to experiment with different colours all the time but I think thats just a lady thing since male human clothes from what I've seen are all the same colour. So why are the mens usually so boring" she asked.
Yenytai frowned unsure whether to follow everyone else through the gate "Should Yenytai come too or hide by side of house? Yenytai know some viera no want me hanging around because Yenytai is different and apparently scary" she sighed unsure on what to do.
