Story Thus Far
(updated once a week, on Saturday if possible.)

It all began the day that Sapphire rushed into a tavern calling for someone's help. Jagyl came in after her and upon noticing that Sapphire was injured, he quickly healed her. She then led him outside where to heal the other people who had been injured. But before Jagyl could heal them as well, they were attacked by a creature of shadows. Before Jagyl could do anything about the creature it was destroyed with a great show of power by a girl with the name of Rika, who Jagyl and Sapphire had met briefly and brought faint memories to the surface. Even Rika had been confused as to quite how it had happened. On their way back to the tavern Rika said that she had to go away for a while, which left Jagyl and Sapphire some time to talk with one another. During their conversations Jagyl discovered that she had water-magic pretty much mastered, and Silber made his first appearance. Also during their conversation Rika suddenly appeared in a flash of light looking rather confused and shocking Jagyl and Sapphire. It was at this time that Sapphire told of her past and how she had been trained by her father and the day she left to go ad search for the Chosen One. Jagyl then told his tale about researching the Chosen One and finding out her name was Rika and also about watching over Rika and the day that she was attacked in the woods and him being knocked unconscious and waking up a week later only to learn of the little girl that had been found dead in the woods and had been burned in a Funeral Pyre. But upon seeing Rika again he concluded that another girl had been killed to keep him from watching over her and throw him off track. Rika had been stunned by all this knowledge, and they all set out so as to find someone who could train Rika because her Power was so great and unpredictable. They agreed to meet the next day at Kentashi Lake. Upon meeting at the lake Rika suddenly flew off on a cloud and was followed by Jagyl and Sapphire, the then met Yukari-chan and added her to the crew. They all decided to find the Hermit who could train Rika and help her control her Power. They all decided to camp by the lake, Jagyl surprised everyone when he opened an interdimensional portal with basically a house inside of it with everything that they would need, including spare bedrooms. The Pocket Room had cost Jagyl quite a bit of energy to make a couple of years before and had left him bedridden for a month, but in his opinion it was worth it. As everyone was going into the Pocket Room to check it out, Yuka tripped on a small rock with an odd marking on it. Jagyl quickly healed her, for some reason it had knocked her out, but it was the groups first suspicion that they were not alone in the area. Once everyone was inside the Pocket Room, Rika, Saph, and Jagyl all made dinner and then everyone retired for the night. The next morning Jagyl woke early and was craving something sweet, but it turned out that someone (or someones) had eaten all the cookies. Turns out Rika had caught Silber and Lumi eating them in the middle of the night. When Yuka and Jagyl were drinking the tea Jagyl had made they began to wonder why Sapphire wasn't up yet. They went to her room to check on her and found only a cryptic note. Jagyl sent Silber out to look for clues to her where abouts, and Silber had discovered a trail of heavy dew. Yuka and Jagyl followed the trail, leaving Rika behind in case Saph came back. At the end of the trail they found a cave, after resting a bit, Jagyl cast protection spells over him and Yuka and entered the cave. While Yuka and Jagyl were in the cave looking for Saph, Rika tried casting a spell to help her find Saph, but she was attacked while doing so and put her last effort into a scream. Yuka and Jagyl had found Saph hanging upside down and blindfolded and very pissed, when they all heard Rika's scream. They all hurried back and found her unconscious. Yuka had somehow managed to revive her moments later, but it was much to early for Rika's brain to comprehend the things around her after being attacked so suddenly. They all decided to take her to the room she had been using and let her rest. Jagyl made tea and they talked things over. When Rika had finally woken up Jagyl found her in Saph's room crying over the note that had been left, he got her into the dining room and gave her some tea, and then they discovered that she didn't have her memory anymore. While they were all talking things out Rika ran outside just fast enough to see a girl disappearing into the shadows. With a sudden flash of images in her head Rika ended up regaining her memory. Jagyl decided that it would probably be best if he cast a spell to keep her mind from slipping in case of shock and proposed the idea to the rest of the group, Yuka seemed dead against it until Jagyl explained that what he meant to do was not make Rika remember things, but to just hold her current memory in place. While everyone was discussing this there was a small meeting down by the shores of the lake between the girl from earlier that escaped into the shadows and an unknown man.

Thats where it left off as of 7/14 (ish)
