"Kingdoms, Legacy, Knights, they each had a color, and each color had something behind it. Red would likely make a good candidate for Wrath, just as much as Blue stands for Protection." Again the rune glowed in her pendant to prove her point.
She ignored the weary look, at least that one wasn't the rejected handshake, it was something akin more to worried about you then 'I-don't-trust-you' reaction.
"So we have a bunch of guys running a mind control ring, and your average thugs in town. The question is how do they know so much about these items? Hell, how many people in general do? I know those of us at the school have uhhh a really uncanny knack of running into these things? We get drawn into all kinds of stuff that brings us close to weird old things of power and history."
Rattling her pendant with a passive wave of the hand she shrugged again, "What ever they want I know the Malocchio plan to go for the rings seriously. What's interesting is there is one they mentioned that might be stronger then the others." Had Sammy been a moral human a lord of the ring joke would have been really good here, alas Sammy was dead, and of Halloween so the moment was lost entirely.
"Better us or someone else then a group of control freaks, and Anarchs if we get our hands on them though. And I guess that's all we have at the moment." She leaned back on the rock again waving a palm out to Shun, "So go ahead and shoot, ask what you wana know. I ain't got a thing to hide about this artifact."

Shun flicked his gaze to the pendant. He really didn't like how she had before referred to it as her Legacy, and now it alluded to have some tie to Protection. He supposed that Wrath and Destruction were close enough to one another, in any case. It was something to keep in mind.
"I have done some digging, but I had not managed to find much about these rings in particular. It is hard to say how these groups managed to learn of these things, but information can flow loose and fast in the underworld. But if the Malocchio are seeking them out, then there is a decent chance the Black Sands would do the same," he mumbled. The Reaper folded his arms over his chest as he thought this all over.
"I can say with certainty that neither of these factions have a hold of the Wrath ring. So there is that, if nothing else. Ensuring they do not get their hands on the others, especially this 'one stronger ring' should be a priority."
His gaze fell upon the pendant once more.
"First off, where the hell did that come from?"

"So we try to stop them both but is there a way we can play either side to try and ensure neither win? If someone else has the Wrath ring we can at least make sure that the other rings go to someone other then them and hope for the best."
When he finally asked his question she smiled a bit, "Excalibur. Though I'm not sure if it's a part of him, something he made, or something made from me for me. Either way. He made it, and entrusted it to me." She shifted letting the pendant fall from her hand shifting as a blade of blue light shot out both ends forming the hilt and blade as it dug its self into the dirt in its full form.
"Ever since that tower, Olympus, I saw a vision of myself as an embodiment of protection. I saved lives, I came to peoples plea for help to save them from things darker and beyond their power. I did good in that vision. Between that and the memories of Blue Kingdom, of the first hunters. I've been trying to find Excalibur, to find out more about how I can protect things. This was one of the answers."

"Let me know if you find anything out and I'll be more then willing to get involved. If I see them I plan on taking whatever we can from them and making sure it doesn't fall into their hands."
the narrowing eye caused her own face to shift into a slight frown, "And why can't we trust them exactly? Yes they're primal powers, but the last time we crossed them it gave us power to defend Olympus from the Horsemen." Lifting the sword she rested the blade across her shoulder shaking her head.
"Shun. If Madea where here right now. The head of all the horsemen, or Caelius the head of the hunters. If they where here, right now, and you had to use every shred of power you could get your hands on to stop them, even to just slow them down long enough to get some kind of plan or back up in order to stop their plan. Would you use it? Would you use it at any cost or risk if it meant to save everyone you cared about?"
"Halloween, Horsemen, Hunters, some of them are bad, some of them aren't. But the ones that are bad? I Can't stop them alone as some student. If I'm going to fight, I'm going to do it with every drop of power I can get my hands on to make sure they don't take what's ours."

"So the fact that I had glowing blue etheric light wings, and a great sword that made this one pale wasn't helping? Hunters, Halloween, we all got a slice of a legacy that was tied to us as a person." She shook her head, "It wasn't just her, anyone who lashed out at death is equal to blame much as any of us who attacked Red when her weapon consumed her in our first year. People made mistakes, that was just one of them. As for destruction backing Medea why would it not? Merlin led the black knights and he was a traitor, would you expect any less from a legacy that ties to those tradiations?"
"It already did come with a price. You're proving it right now. He warned me picking up this weapon would be lonely, that the things I believed in even before I took it would cause others to turn away from me. You don't trust me with this weapon, or the weapon its self, either way it's a lack of trust. You might be the first, maybe the only one. But Excalibur was more right then I wanted to admit about that. People are going to judge me, that's a fact, puppet or not."
"Excalibur wanted to protect, I think it still does, it doesn't discriminate against what it protects, I can't say for sure. It's what I plan to do, the question is will anyone follow me in that?"
