Welcome to Gaia! ::

Walking through the countless bushes and ravines, across a few bridges and passing some creamy-wooden or even stone buildings, all of them were open to let air run through them, walls being incomplete or without glassed windows. Mainly columns kept them up. Alexis had her staff folded up be her side, her dress clean and draping down her body. Then, coming to one heavenly building she happened upon a white curtain, which she pulled to one side as she slid beneath it and stood into the room that Ruby was recovering. With just a few hours the elves had cleaned them up and Ruby's wounds were clean and healing, much of the pain easing.

The room was very clean, almost bright with the fresh air and sunlight coming in from outside, but the earlier nights these days were still making the room have a slight gloom about it. Ruby was resting in a white linen bed, carved from the same wood as the rest of the building and its furniture. As she swooped in she stood over Ruby and sat down on a chair next to her. There was one nice thing about Safe Haven, it was nothing like a normal infirmary or a hospital, there wasn't that close-off feeling, it didn't even feel like you were being treated for an illness or anything - it felt homely. Alexis anxiously waited .

Ruby looked stunning in her new attire, the elves here treated everyone very well. Though Ruby didn't seem to be able to enjoy such delicacies, for when she woke up all she seemed to think about was the burdens she had to carry, the information she delivered to Alexis. But she smiled and said "don't worry, really. I've survived for half my life not knowing the truth, and now i do. I guess you could say im happy with that" she then placed a hand on Ruby's shoulder. "OH!" she then remembered suddenly! Without a moment her hand leaped from Ruby's shoulder as she fumbled around for her Arcaz Device. Swiping away some of the already read texts between her buddies she searched for a picture. "aha!" she admitted as she finally found what she wanted. "here" she said, as she held out her phone-of-sorts. The image became 3-D as it became a hologram above the device's screen. It revealed the image of a blue police box from 20th century England.

"This appeared outside the city borders of Entei, in the Enchanted Woods. And guess what" she paused for just a brief moment. "Professor Magus-Bane wants us to investigated it, and better yet, as soon as Laxion gets here and you're all recovered we can use a portal. He let me take a Returning Scroll. They take the users back to the place that they were made. Not that we need it, though.... we could just use our rings i guess... but still... It's a freaking Returning Scroll! No one will believe this" she seemed to get more and more excited the more she spoke.

Ruby seemed as though she was in on it! And when she stood up it made Alexis wonder if she really would be okay yet, and even after a short stumble, which Alexis almost tried to stop, she seemed okay. Reclaiming her own excitement though she was about ready to reply before a familiar voice spoke up from behind the curtain "Hey, im here, calm down" as the curtain was lifted. From it came Laxion, he was in his usual attire, but even though it was military... it was designed from his own fae descent. The Fae.. they knew how to dress in fitting gear whilst still making it protective and fluent. Just not as elaborate as the elves.

"woh" he said, looking at Ruby. "these elves are selfless aren't they" he then added. "Laxion!" then quickly said Alexis, as she grabbed his arms.
"woh, woh, what?"
"We have a new quest... Professor Magus-Bane gave it to us"
"What.. you mean you're head master? Isn't he like... too old for everything now?" Laxion still seemed to talk seriously, but Alexis was still excited. "yes, i mean, no, but back to the point. He wants us to investigate an unidentified box in the Enchanted Woods! Look" she then proceeded to do the same as she did to Ruby earlier. "He wants us... to look at a box?"
"A mystery box! And apparently two people are inside, which means we need to hurry"
"uh..."

"I- i guess, but i mean, we don't know what we're dealing with here" Laxion protested slightly, gazing over his shoulder as Ruby rushed passed to swing by outdoors. Looked like she was speaking to the elves. Looking back at Alexis the blonde put a hand on her hip and said "What happened to your sense of adventure?". But Laxion could only think to himself and quietly say "There's something wrong with the air, the pressure in the skies, its not natural. "
"Well whatever it is, we'll be with the best wizards in Magic Earth, they can just make a giant dome above our heads, okay?"
"Okay" he said with short smile. "Let's do this!"

And then Ruby came back into the room and took out her ring, Alexis then realised using the scroll for later would be a better idea. As for Ruby's comment, Laxion didn't like to think about it, the changes in air pressure could only mean bad storms and they seemed to be moving east... towards Entei. Laxion and Alexis then removed their rings and formed the hologram. Laxion raised a brow though at the image, he could see golden clouds forming above the giant orb that usually appears. "Uhm, is that normally there?" he asked, trying to press them with his finger, but they didn't react to him, his finger just passed right through them. Alexis then spoke up after looking between the other two. "Not normally" she then placed a finger on her lip. "But it doesn't seem to do anything so we might as well leave it for now" she then proceeded to pressed the orb and change the dials to align with the Enchanted Woods. "let's go"

Alexis then pressed the orb, and as its golden fabrics rippled and pulled them all into a swirling madness the three vanished from sight. After they had done however, one elf came into the room just moments too late, following by another who said "We're too late, Aer'diné" she replied with "Well, they'll find out soon enough."
"But they ought to know, the weathermancers that stopped the last invasion from the Underworld in the City of Crows won't be able to help them at the Enchanted Woods!"
"Well... it is up to them to stop it, they stopped a Greater Demon, who's to say that can't stop a Fallen Angel"
"The patterns that suggest the same is going to happen there says exactly that..."
