Welcome to Gaia! ::

The Clan of Death living quarters is located near the forges, in the lowest level of the city. Its high raised ceiling and thick stone walls make the area very cold and quiet, the noise easily echoing through the hallways. Rooms are divided into three to four students a room, in a series of simple bunkers. Are furnishings are simple, and coloured dark hues, even the carpet and modest tapestries within the rooms. The rooms themselves are rather cramped, though the hallway rather large, modestly decorated. There is a shrine at the very end of the hallway, to receive blessings from the priestesses. Because of its proximity to the forges, loud clashing noises can be heard time to time echoing into the dorm rooms themselves.

After the orientation, Shun had made his way towards the dormitory to drop off the few things he had brought with. The room setup here was considerably different from what War had going on. In fact, he had a little more privacy, it looked like. That in itself was rather nice. Hopefully, he could find himself some decent roommates that won't drive him up the wall or anything of that sort.

Shun first heard a rush of footsteps from behind him. He had started to turn around, but it was too late, someone had pounced onto his back more or less. His eye widened and he was almost about to try and elbow whoever his assailant was, but he heard a familiar voice all of the sudden.

"Xiu! You startled me there," he said as he turned around to face her, relaxing once he had been released from the tight hug.

"It's good to see you too. And oh? Conquest? How was that like?" he replied before furrowing his brow as she suddenly fell silent. He noticed that her gaze seemed to be on his left eye, which was now covered with an eyepatch rather than bandages. He patted her lightly on the shoulder.

"It went fairly well. I was over at War in the previous week. It was a pretty interesting experience."

"That sounds like it may be like some of the more traditional areas of the city I was from. There were a couple temples and whatnot there," he mused while thinking this over. Shun would like to visit it at some point, he knew that much.

"They live high up in trees, seeing how they can all fly. The people may be as how you'd expect. A group of proud and fierce warriors. Training was vigorous and it wasn't uncommon to be at least a little battered by the end of the day. Their way of thinking reflected some of my own at times," he explained. Despite having gotten beaten a few times, he didn't seem to mind all that much. It wasn't anything new to him really.

"Of course Xiu. Mitsu was here last week. From what she's told me, they have a library as well as a forge here. The former doesn't interest me so much but it may be worth looking into."

He paused for a moment, then looked at the room they were in.

"By the way..Have you picked a room?"

They smelled fresh- new blood, new toys to play with, maybe. He had been curious for a while, now, simply holding back and watching as they played, exploring the island and learning from the priestesses. He had to be on his best behavior, after all, for the sake of the visitors, adorable little things, well, some of them not-so-adorable. Either way this was just too much potential fun for him to just leave alone, and he was bored of just standing around.

Not that he really minded standing around her, bless the pretty flowers on her head, but it had been so quiet around here recently while the higher-ups were out and about.

And speaking of flowers... his eyes narrowed, focusing on a figure clad in red and black; how delightful, they matched. A couple of long strides brought him directly behind her, and he leisurely plucked the flower out of her hair, tucking it in his own, where it clearly looked better. He offered her a smile in return, and a polite nod.

"Enjoy your visit to the island, little..." He paused for a second, eyeing the baku critically, though the smile never left his face, and then his gaze momentarily shifted to the other student with her. A reaper, how nice, and one who seemed to know the taste of death. Sweet, sweet death.

"Treats," He announced decisively, if a little too happily, raising his eyebrows at them in a decidedly creepy way.

Xiu opened her mouth to speak again, only to freeze when she felt something touch her hair. Flinching, she jerked forwards, lifting a hand and pressing it against her head with wide eyes. What was that?

...And where did her flower go?

Her pink eyes were round when she turned to face the figure who had been standing behind her, her gaze briefly skimming over him before it fell onto the flower that he was now donning in his hair. Her flower, to be more specific, but...ah well, Xiu wasn't one to be upset by such things. Besides, she had more from where that came from, and considering that this person didn't seem as if they were a mere student like them? It didn't hurt to be polite and let it go.

"I, ah, yes! Thank you! We will enjoy our visit...?" Her voice rose at the end in a questioning note as she turned to shoot Shun a puzzled look, and then back to the figure. "The flower looks very nice on you, by the way." Very manly.

It was a room with four walls and a floor, and an actual bed, never in his life had Joachim taken something that he was so fond of for granted. The entire week of living in the Isle of War's dorms he did not sleep, or what sleep he did receive was controlled by the thought of him eventually rolling out of the haphazardly hung hammock.

Not really considering who else was in the dorms or even in the same room he was he immediately flopped face first into the bed.... well bunk leaving his feet hanging of the edge. It may not be his own private room but this was better, much better than War.

After laying there for a few minutes he got up and looked around for the voices that he heard, they were not familiar to him but he could peek and see who.

[[Entering]]

Yep. It was atmospherically very different in the aisle of Death, just as she'd expected and the Pricolici found herself practically bouncing along the hallway, pausing once and going very still as she closed her eyes, ears alert. She was listening.

Dark, yes, but the sound of the forges was almost rhythmic to her. Would it put her to sleep? Shehk wasn't sure, but she did begin to snoop how the rooming was, coming to the same conclusion as Shun had - there would be quite a bit more privacy than there had been in the isle of War. But she could also tell she'd need to find herself a roommate or two. Siddie perhaps?

Who else was on the island with them?

Her phone went off after a bit of snooping and the Pricolici smiled at it.
