 Perhaps the most prestigious academy in the whole of Magic Earth. It is run by Neutral City and even given praise by the High Guild. Anyone can attend and it focuses on helping talented students hone their skills in both mental education and physical education in ways of self defense, magical training and tactics. Hope Academy is for the teaching of 15-18 year olds, which also caters for younger students who are still struggling to find their direction with the Foundation Year, which focuses on finding fighting capability, mental strengths and weaknesses, as well as per-student interests. This means that each student is given unique time and tutoring before their first year, which builds upon this. For another other students that join at first year, documentation and demonstrations given by the students prior to their acceptance is used to determine their personal strengths and weaknesses.
Foundation Year - 14-15 years old
First Years - 15-16 years old
Second Years - 16-17 years old
Third Years - 17-18 years old

 Thexian Valorian ( Thex ) [T]-[T]-[T]-[T]-[T]-[T]-[T]-[T]-[T]-[T] Theme Song Chairs scraped back, voices of students echoing up and through the window that Thex so innocently sat by on the exterior of the building ramparts.. The boy leaning back against the weathered stone wall with his arms folded over his chest in a entirely too relaxed position. With his head tilted forward, the wild locks of his shaggy hair fell over his closed eyes.. Somehow making the boy seem thoughtful despite his lazy posture. He did this as often as he could get away with it, sitting in on classes.. today's lecture had been particularly pleasant, as it had been over the basic theory of magic and its manipulations..
The last of the students trickled out of the room behind him, the teacher returning to their paperwork.. and Thex exhaled, holding perfectly still for a moment before simply thrusting himself away from the wall; The boy rolling to the edge and dropping over, free falling briefly to the next rooftop.. His steps light and agile as he reached the shingles and continued on to leap to the wall below.. Then jumping again, twisting mid-fall to land in a crouch in the deserted side street. He had free run of this place, and did so without worry or caution.. Because no one paid attention to those that acted 'natural', and he'd mastered the art of hiding in plain sight.
Stretching his arms over his head Thex gave a satisfied 'mmm', folding his hands behind his head as he started down the street at a lazy pace.. A large dog falling into step beside him as if used to such behavior. The beast was older, obviously a stray from the mangy black fur and alert quirk of his ears.. And from the way Thex slowed his stride to stay slightly behind the elder beast it was clear he respected the dog. Passing a meat-bun stall the boy didn't miss a beat... dropping his hands just in time to swipe two of the tasty merchandise before the shopkeeper turned back their way; the treats already behind his back as they strolled on casually. It was only when they turned the corner that Thex offered one to the old dog at his side, biting into the other himself as he listened to his companion do the same. They had plans, as it were.. and in unison the pair made their way towards the city's interior.(( Exit ))

❖ "But that was then and this is now
Now look at me" Ⓐlexis Truesvale "The air is still, a path appears. The choice is clear, I'm finally here.
Safely back in your arms... " This is the part of me
That you’re never gonna ever take away from me,
Throw your sticks and your stones,
Throw your bombs and your blows
But you’re not gonna break my soul
◊◊◊▐Ω▌◊◊◊ Hope Academy, one of the three academies across the Lands of Occulas and the Land of Crows, the second eldest of the three and most definitely the smallest... but that's not to be compared with it's quality of training. Since the defeat of Lucifial in Zakernand a great many things have changed, a new continent has been revealed and new allegiances have been formed. Now is the time for the students of the three academies and Asmodius College to come together once more... It was a surprisingly warm and bright winter morning, the morning dew left the surrounding woods glittering, Alexis enjoyed the fresh air smell on the walk in. She had only ever visited Hope Academy once when she was attending Merlin, but that felt like such a long time ago now. The castle was just as enormous as she remembered, every hall as grand and every corridor as endless. Yet the student were bustling, each one unique, that was what she envied about Hope, unlike Merlin that excelled in pushing students to the limits in science or the magical arts, Hope encouraged students to be themselves and perfect their own personal fighting style to defend themselves. She brushed past some students now, they were rushing downa nd out towards the courtyard were the announcement was being made. Alexis however was waiting for the back entrance where she would watch from the back. After finding the right room she was quickly greeted by the natural daylight shining high windows that overlooked the courtyard, and through an archway was the giant platform. She waited around the back and found Laxion leaning against the furthest wall. "Hey!" she whispered loudly, he looked up and he cracked a smile, the kind you make when you haven't seen someone in a while. "How're you?" he asked, pushing forwards and accepting her embrace and letting her warmth envelope him. "I'm great, I finally graduated Merlin! a decade or two late but... did you and Nyru enjoy your break?" she asked, pulling away and pulling a grin. "It was... exciting, thank you" he replied, she could see him blushing but trying his best to hide it. "So, you ready for another quest?" she asked, crossing her arms and joining him against the wall, they could see through the archway and out towards the crowd of people listening to the Headmaster. "Hm, well. I'm not so sure im ready to look after so many students..." "They'll grow on you, how do you think I put up with you?" "Hey! You had time to grow up, unlike some. Anyway, lets see what the plans are" Outside the Headmaster stood ready on the platform, looking out amongst a crowd of hundreds of not a few thousand students now that the other academies had joined. The courtyard was gigantic, a larg semi-circular platform of stone surrounded by archways that were then followed by a long length of grass and pathways. Hope's students were closest, but way at the back where the expanse of land overlooked a cliff there were two extra groups. On the right were those that were selected to travel from Merlin, a mixture of eager wizards and scientists, or even a mix of the two. On the left were those from Ravencrest in the Land of Crows. However, after only being formerly reopened in the last few years it has far less students that meet the requirements for such an event. The Headmaster began to speak, and a silence fell over the crowd. "Hope Academy. It is my pleasure to announce a new event created by the now three academies of our united lands. As you know, recent events have not been kind to our world but we have endured and prevailed, stronger than ever. As a result of this, as you have probably divulged from rumours or the quickly spreading news that gets around Entei, a new land has been revealed to us - and a new allegiance has been made with the Guildeam. Thus, creating the Otherearth Initiative. Behind you are those chosen by all those that volunteered from Merlin Academy in Entei and Ravencrest Academy in the Land of Crows. They have already made their choice. Now it is your turn. I cast before you the Orbs of Reflection - if you wish to venture to Otherearth and prove you have what it takes to truly call yourselves protectors of our world - place your hand on them and ask yourself, why do I want to do this?. Unfortunately this is not open to First Years so any of you that have thought yourselves above the rest by managing to get here without teachers finding you before hand - please wait until next year. The orbs will not choose you. Please form orderly lines and be patient, those chosen will be notified by this evening! Once selected, pack your bags. We leave tomorrow morning. And by the way, to any staff joining or notable guests or suppliers out there or round back - you will be boarding the Lightcleaver with Lucas Purevelion, heir at the Injustira Syndicate. "Oh right!" Lottie squealed, clenching her fists and turning to Micha'el, she said "now's our chance to show 'em what we've got. My sister will be so proud!" "Well, we better be quick or we're gonna get thrown aside by all the others trying to get in line" he replied, looking out at the already moving crowd. Back round the back Alexis couldn't hold back a little bit of excitement of her own, "I wonder how Lucas is, we haven't seen him since..." her expression fell, "Lucifial..." and memories of Ruby came to surface. Throwing them aside as best she could she asked "When are we going to be seeing Claudia and Nyru anyway?" Laxion responded quickly, saying "They should be over with the students from Ravencrest, their Queen made them official representatives of the Land of Crows. Like you are Merlin and I Hope since no one else could..." the very same memories came to mind for him too. Ruby would have been the representative for Hope, not him. He was from Asmodius College - but that isn't even a part of this. He was only in this position because of his title as Team Elixer with Ruby and Alexis. ((I'm so so so SOOOOOOOO sorry this is so long and probably hard to follow or boring or lacking in detail. Its rather late but I wanted to get it done ^_^ Vicar, do you fancy your character dropping by the back to meet Laxion and Alexis? Meanwhile Tuna, do you fancy rp'ing for a short while with Nyru at the back of the crowd? We'll have our characters all meet at midday and get to know each other? I thought this would be a good way to get everyone together. Sorry there's so many characters Vicar, they won't all be active in the same threads after this, they'll have separate sub plots but thought it would be good to mention all those involved. They should all be in my list of characters linked in Laxion's name above ^_^ sorry again, and thanks!))
◊◊◊▐Ω▌◊◊◊ I opened my eyes to another day
To things that I had known,
things that happened everyday.
I feel there's a shadow creeping up on me
The wind blows through the streets
Telling me something I don't see ❖
Draw the line, and turn the time
Taking back what was mine
Now I can change almost anything
Hold tight, search for the light
Do I know what's wrong or right
Put the pieces back where they belong

 Tsuna MikiTsuna was near the outer perimeters of the castle fighting off a ground of boys that decided to shove their arbitrates in her face. Just because they were muscled and sightly taller than her didn't mean she could beat them in a fair match. One argument lead to another and here they were, comparing their physical strengths to each other until she came out victorious. Adjusting her black cat eared cap and propping her supersized hammer on her shoulder, she smirked down at her defenseless opponent. He had practically wet himself and was shaking in fear that she would smash his empty head in. "There, you see! I won and not because I'm a girl! I'm the best damn weapon wielder that Hope could ask for. Quit quivering like a baby and get back on your feet!" she commanded the boy harshly as his friends assisted him. Trying to discretely wipe away his tears, he resumed a manly stance and pointed at her threateningly. "Next time I won't go see easy on ya!" he bellowed before a professor came strolling up behind Tsuna. "Oh, yeah! I'll take you on as many times as you want! You don't scare me!" Suddenly, she felt an aggressive tug on her ear and turned slightly to see a hardly man with a scar over his left eye staring at her. "The year hasn't even started yet and you're already picking fights. Tsuna Miki, this is your last warning. Line up with the other students before I change my mind and suspend you right here." he said firmly as he released the rowdy child. Tsuna rubbed her sore red ear and rolled her eyes. She folded up her hammer that has a mechanism in the handle and hung it from a strap over her shoulder which disguised it as a backpack.
The brutish redhead walked briskly up to the school and dived into the sea of students and professors. The archways that she walked under expanded all the way up to the stone ceiling and were decorated with draping flags with the academy's symbol on them. The academy was like a labyrinth with its multiple corridors leading to classrooms, libraries, and even hidden rooms. Tsuna wasn't able to sight-see from the short amount of time she spent inside before being pushed into the courtyard. Most of the students are her were so pristine and saw her as an outcast with her bright red outfit and her flowing ginger locks. She stood towards the center of the stone platform while other academies filled in the sections towards the grassy areas. Tsuna attempted to stand on her tip-toes to view the crowd, but her shortness bested her. She could have tried something outrageous, like climbing one of the pillars but making a fool of herself on the first day would label her with a bad reputation for the rest of the year. Besides, there would be plenty of time to form friendships. That is if anyone hasn't already labeled her the "screw up" or "troublemaker" of the campus. This thought was so embarrassing that she actually hid her face with her cap.
After what seemed like hours of waiting, the Headmaster spoke to the crowd through speakers drowning out the noise. He congratulated them for being there and apologized for the inconvenience of the world's recent phenomenon. She remembered how all the students had to be packed into a cellar while the third years and higher fought off the demons outside. Once Lucifial was defeated, word of Team Elixer and the Queen's personal guards spread throughout the lands knighting them as true heroes. She envied their righteous service and wants to follow in their footsteps knowing that the youngest member of Team Elixer attended Hope once. Unfortunately, she was killed in action, but a statue is in development in Neutral City to honor her sacrifice. Anyway, the Headmaster continued by stating there is a new land, Otherearth, that has just surfaced and is waiting to be explored. Graduated volunteers are going to guide them on their journeys as long as these Orbs of Reflections deem them worthy of the task. Tsuna may be the youngest second year ever considering how she breezed through her first year with her natural talent. However, her blemished records suggest otherwise.
The Headmaster recommended that they line up in an orderly fashion even though they were far to impulsive to do so. When she heard Lucas's name, she crossed her arms and dove deep into thought until she was literally pushed back into reality. She merged into a random line and accidentally pumped into a brunette girl and a blonde boy. "Sorry." she responded automatically as she hung her head to hid her face. They probably already knew who she was and will pick a fight with her as well.
In the very back of the crowd, standing somberly on top of a grassy hill was Claudia and Nyru. Even though Claudia didn't show it, she was so nervous and began to unintentional bite her nails. She wasn't particularly good with child, especially do to her failure of protecting Ruby. She still blames herself for her death, but she had no power over her sister's choice. Occasionally, a girl would run by her that looks just like Ruby and she quickly reach out for her but then restrain herself once she realizes it's not her. Sighing, she turned to Nyru and asked, "What do you think? Was this a bad decision, us coming here? I'm not sure if I can handle this..." she admitted in an unconfident tone. Nyru, her fearless comrade would help her through this anxiety one way or another.

● Des nuits d'amour à ne plus en finir
Un grand bonheur qui prend sa place
Des ennuis, des chagrins, s'effacent
Heureux, heureux à en mourir ●  Tiny footsteps were drowned out by the crowd as green silhouette slipped by students and staff, her little feet tapping along the ground with glee as she passed through the front gates of the illustrious academy. It held to its name, everything appeared so refined, so mystifying. As she walked down the hallway to search for the courtyard, the green figure ran her hand along the stone wall, feeling the texture run underneath her fingertips.
So this was Hope Academy. My my my, what a sight! Halle was grateful to be a part of their staff and join their journey! But then again, she felt bad for having to temporarily close up her shop to other customers... For now. Having settled with the last of her customers, she was set currency wise, a few months so it seems. But what worried her was the lack of attention the store would receive. She had no apprentice to watch it while she was away, nor had she even thought about hiring someone to tend to it. Although the shop did move around frequently, that didn't mean that the shape of it was unstable and messy, Hallelujiah was no heathen!
Alas, she couldn't simply pass up an opportunity of a lifetime, and thinking about it too much would probably give the elf a heart attack.
----
Upon entering the courtyard, she combed her hair with her hand, twirling a pale green strand around her forefinger as she shoved through random assortments of people to make it to the back and hang around. It would be best to simply watch for now, and perhaps learn a thing or two. The petite elf glanced around, trying to recognize faces, however none had come to mind... In fact she had never seen any of these people in her life. Some young, some older, some tall, some short, they all varied but each seemed to be quite determined with their quests and what not. They seemed to be enjoying themselves as far as she was concerned.
Blah blah blah... Whomever happened to be speaking on stage at the time didn't seem to engage Halle enough, she was far too deep into her current thoughts.
"I need to bring my sand and ashes... And my rocks! And erm... Hm...Maybeeee, some scraps to craft with... So many tools." That was right, Hallelujiah needed to pack plenty, but it had to fit in one bag for the relevancy.
Bah! It was too hard to think during a moment like this, she can scream over it all she wanted to when she returned home to pack.
For now, she turned around to search for people to socialize with, and so happened to lay her eyes upon a blonde girl and her male friend. They seemed to be an alright pair. 'Yoohoo~" She chimed, weaseling her way to them. "I hope you don't mind, it would be awkward if I just stood alone. Oh... Haha! Where are my manners? I probably sound like an imbecile. I'm Hallelujiah, at your service." A marvelous start!

They couldn't be left in their sorrow for too long, they had come to learn that they couldn't dwell. But the silence was broken when they heard the honeyed tones of a young lady weaving through the students coming towards them. Laxion looked up and raised a brow, he took a flance at Alexis beside him and asked "Is she talking to us?"
She was the colour that Laxion would associate with the wind or the soothing streams flowing through stones. As she got closer Laxion was unsure of how to react but Alexis was already stepping forward with a great smile on her face, she was always the one to be first at introductions. This girl was so bubbly, it reminded him of when he first met Alexis.
"Hi!" Alexis chimed too with a wave. About time she met someone new and exciting! It brought out the teenager within her than she lost long ago, "Nice to meet you, I'm Alexis. I think I heard Lucas mention you, are you the enchanter and weapon specialist?" The name was something she couldn't forget! Only a few days ago had she been speaking with Lucas Purevelion, the organiser of the Otherearth Initiative and heir to the Injustira Syndicate.
Laxion meanwhile and pushed himself away from the wall and placed himself beside Alexis, adding in when he had the chance "Laxion"

● Des nuits d'amour à ne plus en finir
Un grand bonheur qui prend sa place
Des ennuis, des chagrins, s'effacent
Heureux, heureux à en mourir ● "It's very nice to meet you both!" She clasped her hands together and inspected the pair; The one named Laxion appeared to be the more quiet one, while Alexis was eager to converse. An interesting bunch, but it's not like Hallelujiah found a problem with it. "Aha!" The petite elf suddenly chuckled and flipped her hair over her shoulder, puffing her chest out slightly. "Yup yup and yup! I am indeed all of that~ I didn't know Lucas mentioned me. If you guys want upgrades I'm happy to help!" That boosted her confidence quite a bit.
Halle's eyes had a keen glimmer as she stared at them with curiosity. "But enough about me! I want to know about you both, my new friends, hm? Oh I hope you don't mind it if I call you guys that! I'm just so excited~" As she babbled, she placed one hand on her cheek, and her free hand waved in the air to dismiss her prior statement. "So, what do you folks do for a living?"

Alexis chuckled with Halle and tilted her head like a puppy to listen, she was already offering to upgrade their weapons and at first Alexis seemed more than excited, "Ooo!" but quickly dismissed that answer when she added "I'm not sure much more could be done to my poor staff" and pouted outwards. Laxion scratched the back of his head then raked his hand downa nd through his long brown hair until it draped in front of his shoulder and over his chest. New friends? She was becoming more and more like a mixture of Ruby and Alexis, if only Ruby could be here now... she would have loved Halle. But Halle's babbling was something he thought he'd enjoy, her joy and excitement was leaking from her and ready to burst. Alexis said "good question" and put a hand on her hip as if to show off, "We're Team Elixer"
"Though - our team is now more of a pairing" Laxion added quite matter-of-factly. "That's not true!" Alexis turned to him, "we have Nyru and Claudia, they're with us most of the time anyway" she then turned back to Halle, put up a hand as if to disguise her voice and whispered "Nyru's his darling sweetheart, you'll meet him on the Lightcleaver"
"Hey!" Laxion swiped her arm down and could only spare a single glance at Halle without turning a shade of red. With a laugh Alexis shook it off, getting back to the point, teasing Laxion was too easy! "You might have heard of us several years ago, we defended the Isle of Elixer from a Scarred attack. Since then we've just sorta been a dis-patchable team on important missions. When we're not doing that I'm finally a graduate of Merlin Academy, I help my parents run run Café Truesvale in Neutral City."
"And I, as of recently, train young soldiers in the Asmodius Corps." Laxion intervened, attempting to regain place in the conversation now that his cheeks had paled again.

● Des nuits d'amour à ne plus en finir
Un grand bonheur qui prend sa place
Des ennuis, des chagrins, s'effacent
Heureux, heureux à en mourir ● "Don't say that! I can totally make you a new staff if that one is too old for you! And then I can upgrade it from there, consider it a gift from a new friend." The little elf offered, a large grin on her face as she clasped her hands together and held it underneath her chin. A staff to work on sounded fun, the first thing she would be able to work on during this quest! And free as well, how generous of Hallelujiah to do such a thing.
As the Alexis explained their team consisting of a couple others, including Laxion's lover, Halle gave a nod to show her understanding pertaining to the subject. "I can't wait to meet the others then!" She chimed, giving a slight chuckle at Laxion's flustered expression due to his ally's teasing.
"Hmmm, I'm not really keen on news, but I think I've heard a mention of you guys from someone. Ah! But anyways, you guys seem like pretty hard workers, so this quest must not really mean much then, hm? Since you two have done so much." She was curious of the two, after all, learning about them was the first step to becoming closer, as with all friends and customers of Hallelujiah.
[Out.Of.Clocks; Ahhhh, sorry I had work for the past two days!]

Halle was carious as Alice from Wonderland, Alexis knew that from all the countless nights in her childhood when her mother would read it until she slept. At least Halle wasn't irritating like Alice though. Her bubbly character and sincere smiles were enough to keep Alexis talking all day! "Well, you say hard workers" Laxion said, "we just finished a long break after defeating Lucifial", Alexis intervened, her childishness at play, "not that it was really publicized"
"No. Its good to see world recovering though."
"What Laxion means to say is that this is a surprisingly new and exciting thing! We've never been teachers before, we have to look after all of them" she gestured out to the crowd of students, being turned away by a negative Orb of Reflection or being accepted and given a small white crystal as a token from the orbs. "Nothing compares to being responsible to so many people, no matter what we've been through" it seemed to dawn on her, becoming apparent in her face that she had to look after so many, "... what if they have arguments..." she added, pulling a face of tired disgust. "What about you?" she asked, "I mean, I know you specialise in weapons, but there's got to be more to you than that, you already seem like such an adventured person!"
Laxion wondered how long it would take Alexis to really explain her past, but it seemed like she was going around that, after all, it wasn't a small deal to describe. Perhaps over food on the Lightcleaver, thats when Alexis tended to get deep in her thoughts. He couldn't wait to board the Lightcleaver again, it had been so long and he missed the air sweeping over him, the night skies, the dawn and the dusk, the clouds beneath them. He was just thankful they had the Lightcleaver and the students all had their own Zeppelins from their own academies.
((thats okay!))

● Des nuits d'amour à ne plus en finir
Un grand bonheur qui prend sa place
Des ennuis, des chagrins, s'effacent
Heureux, heureux à en mourir ● Well, these people had good morals, and that was a positive thing. Naturally, they just seemed to be born as good people. Not only this, but they were well educated too. They seemed like an interesting bunch, she would love to dwell in their past a bit when their bond has tightened.
"Hm? Oh! Geheh~ I own a shop that moves to a bunch of different locations, so I sell my things to a variety of different people." She kept her words sweet, leaving out a few details so they wouldn't question her sales, after all, Halle did sell to criminals. "So I guess you can say that I've been to many many maaaany places! But, it's just me, so it's a bit lonely sometimes." The elf shrugged her shoulders lightly. "There isn't much to know about me, I'm just a boring little shopkeeper." She giggled at her own words.
Her attention was drawn to the students, her expression slowly turning curious as she watched them get sorted. "Erm, so what's the ship-thingy called? Lightcleaver? What's that like?" They both seemed to know a lot about this academy and certain topics pertaining to it, so it would be best to draw out information straight from the source.

❖ "But that was then and this is now
Now look at me" Ⓐlexis Truesvale "The air is still, a path appears. The choice is clear, I'm finally here.
Safely back in your arms... " This is the part of me
That you’re never gonna ever take away from me,
Throw your sticks and your stones,
Throw your bombs and your blows
But you’re not gonna break my soul

She's been around that was for sure, that was always something Alexis like in people - a traveller's spirit! Though she was beginning to wonder how bubbly one person could be for so long. "Well" Alexis put an arm around Laxion's shoulders and said "you won't be alone for this adventure, tight knitted circle right here". Alexis thought about all the times they had needed each other, without one of them it threw everything off balance, like it still was without Ruby. Now she knows how it must have felt when she had been missing for so long. She could remember going through that portal like it was yesterday. Its not a good thing to cheat time, and reliving your past makes you enjoy what you already had.
When Halle mentioned the Lightcleaver laxion was the one to speak, "It's the fastest Zeppelin in Occulas. Lucas Purevelion owns it and uses it for special occasions or important quests. Imagine a giant silver blade soaring through the sky, that's the Lightcleaver". He said it almost as if he admired it. "hey" Alexis then asked, "we should probably take a walk around the academy grounds, I hear they have a food hall somewhere". With that she gestured towards an archway leading back into the school's corridors, quite empty at the moment from all the commotion outside. Within it was like walking through a grand castle with candles that floated along the walls. Each section of the academy was lit with different coloured candles, white however were of no importance and that's where she stayed when she led the way trying to find the hall. Along the way she couldn't help but ask "So, I presume you have some fighting skills with you, what's your style?" then brushing her long blonde hair behind her back, bright blue eyes looking over her shoulder at the elf. She loved fighting styles, everyone's intrigued her, especially when they could eb used together.
◊◊◊▐Ω▌◊◊◊ I opened my eyes to another day
To things that I had known,
things that happened everyday.
I feel there's a shadow creeping up on me
The wind blows through the streets
Telling me something I don't see ❖
Draw the line, and turn the time
Taking back what was mine
Now I can change almost anything
Hold tight, search for the light
Do I know what's wrong or right
Put the pieces back where they belong

● Des nuits d'amour à ne plus en finir
Un grand bonheur qui prend sa place
Des ennuis, des chagrins, s'effacent
Heureux, heureux à en mourir ● "I'm glad to approach you two, now I definitely won't be alone!" She chimed, clasping her hands behind her back. Halle glanced to Laxion as he then began to explain Lightcleaver to her, which seemed to strike her fancy, in a mechanical junky sort-of-way. She had never really rode a Zeppelin before since she tended to be more of a 'keep to the ground' sort of girl. And after finding out she would be riding one, it made her wonder how a fast Zeppelin actually went that fast without knocking off all of the passengers on board. Magic perhaps? Or a contraption to keep the passengers on... Like a belt? Or a railing? Maybe it was an enclosed space? Bah! She shouldn't dwell, science can wait!
Anywho, she gave a gracious nod to Laxion. "I can't wait to ride~" All of that aside, time to talk over a stroll and possibly a meal.
As they walked, Hallelujiah's eyes glanced around the place, however she kept her pointed ears open in case one of them said something to her or one another. Her finger would drag along any wall or object that happened to be within her reach until her attention was turned to Alexis. "Ahah..." Halle snorted, then began to laugh. "Ahahahah! That's funny! No no nooo, I don't fight at all, I'm just a scrawny little mechanic. I can scream really loud if someone does try to fight me though, other than that, I don't wield the weapons I make." She didn't seem to be ashamed of not having any skill in battle. "I know you two for sure fight, I can see the age in your eyes. Do you do any sort magic?"

"What?" Alexis was baffled, "well, that's surprising. Probably a good thing though, it becomes a bad habit to fight your arguments sometimes". She turned around and began walking backwards, passing eye contact with Laxion to tell her when she needed to turn. It was an arrangement that often occurred when they had long walks, Alexis was easily bored of walking forward all the time, perhaps it was something about how she likes exploring time in reverse that makes her this way. "Well I actually specialise in arcane magic, think of advanced mathematics and magic and thats me, oh" she nodded back to the staff hanging off her back, "and with a little bit of help from forbidden sources." she tapped the blue crystal embedded in the staff just above her shoulder. Finally she added, "It's also a scythe" like a juicy cherry on top of the cake. "Arcane missiles, Laxion interjected, describing her fighting style, "magical platforms, sparkly cannons. You name it she can make it. Oh, and don't piss her off she'll summon a storm on you"
"Hey! I don't do that"
"Okay then" he added, looking at Halle, "only to cultists."
"how about you tell Halle a little about your own fighting style, hm?"
"Fine. I'm half Fae and half Elemental, my father's air element is enhanced by my mother's magical affinity. All of my attack use the wind to help me, and this thing" he pulled out a small rod no longer than his form arm with arrowhead-like objects protruding the edges, "turns into a double-sided spear. The tips can shoot off and are held on by strong thick wire."
"Think of a a blender and you've got Laxion"

Des ennuis, des chagrins, s'effacent
Heureux, heureux à en mourir ● She was incredibly impressed with the two, her expression wide-eyed and glistening, her grin wide. "You two must be incredibly strong then!" Halle could admit that she felt so vulnerable compared to them, who had years of experience fighting. "Now that I think of it, maybe it would've been a good idea in the past to practice." She chuckled and shrugged her shoulders.
Continuing on, the little elf thought hard about upgrading their weapons. Alexis had claimed that hers was too old, and when Halle had mentioned making her a new one, she got no reply, making her believe that perhaps they both held sentimental value to their weapons? "Maybe if you could let me, could I maybe try some upgrades on your weapons? Like a small experiment? Ahah, I won't break them I swear! Hallelujiah never breaks valuables!" Even if their weapons were old, it wouldn't hurt to try. "You can say no!"
