"Hey, daddy, can I get a treat every time I do a chore too?" Of course Gavin was being facetious. "Lemme try lemme try!"
Gavin grabs a treat and walks several paces away. "Paulie! Come!" And with this the puppy is reunited with his playmate. "Good job Paulie!"
KRAK!
Karrik agrees.

Physical Description: Edward Laurént stands at 5'10. He has midlength black hair, and a clean shaven face. Previously his facial features were hard to remember, since he has begun wearing glasses they have become easier to recall. He looks to be in his late twenties, with a strong jaw, mid set cheek bones, straight narrow nose, and full lips. He appears to be in decent physical condition, though he is a bit pale.
Edwards eyes are an odd shade of blue, and they quite literally glow. With his glasses on, the glowing is the only remarkable thing about them. When you stare into his eyes when his glasses off though... it can be an odd experience. Staring into his eyes gives the impression that time has ceased to flow. Then you become aware of just how fast you are moving through the void of space. Most students avoid looking into his eyes.

Clothes and Equipment: Previously Edward only owned one suit of clothing. He retains these clothes, as a sort of work uniform. His style of dress when working is odd. He wears: sturdy blue cotton pants, an over sized coat of some unknown material, a sweater with a hood sewn onto it, and a large scarf. Each piece of clothing fluctuates in state of repair, and cleanliness through the day. If these clothes were not so eccentric, he could easily be considered a beggar while wearing them.
Edward has begun to expand his wardrobe in recent months. His first new accessory is a pair of glasses. Unlike other time mages, Edward struggled with turning off his time sight, rather than turning it on. His glasses are enchanted to suppress it. When not working he tends to wear casual clothing. Loose white shirts, and simple leather leggings. He also has a handful of stylish, if simple mage robes for special occasions.

"What say we really put Paulie to the test?"
Edwards waves a hand and pops Paulie out of existence. The puppy who had gotten used to teleportation only freaks out a little in his new locale. Said locale is on the lap of Reuna Midai. Who just so happened to be taking a quick break from her domestic chores. The puppy dances around in a little circle then puts his paws on her chest so he can lick her face. Meanwhile Edward opens the door of the tower and calls for the dog.
"Paulie! Here boy!"

Between two trees in the backyard of the tower stood The Inquisitor. There was a sense of immense satisfaction, finally having found this place. The Inquisitor took a step onto the grass, a deer raising its head above a rock not far from him. The Inquisitor looked at the deer, only to have it leap off into the brush. The Inquisitor looked at the tower once more from behind his hood, a strong urge to enter it creeping up on him.
He could sense the debris from countless spells, conjuring and general use of magic in the air. To The Inquisitor the debris was like specs of dust, floating around the sun rays penetrating the crowns of nearby trees. There was something special about this place, a certain happiness and joy, there was something fulfilling about being here, he could feel it in his gut.
After a short walk The Inquisitor found himself in front of the door. There was a man standing in the opening, his attention was on something inside. The Inquisitor stopped ten feet from the door, staring at the man for a little while. He didn't want to startle the man or give him the impression that he was trouble, so he calmly spoke "Excuse me".

Reuna Laurént
Dedicated
Roleplay posts: 361 
Age: 51
Physical Description: Reuna is a striking study in contrasts. She is just slightly above female average, height-wise, standing at 5'8", and is slender, with a fragile bone structure that makes her look weak; this is, of course, balanced out by her strength and skill in magic. Her hair is long, descending to her waist, and is purely black, which is a sharp opposition to her pale-skinned features. Her eyes are the color of amethyst, dark and intense, and are usually the only method from which one can derive her mood, as she very rarely displays her emotions via facial expressions. She appears young, in her mid-thirties, although if one looks closely enough, they can see the beginnings of fine lines around her eyes and mouth. Although few have ever seen them, due to her tendency to keep herself fully covered from neck to toes, she has whip-mark scars covering most of her back, and scars from long periods spent in manacles around both of her wrists, remnants from her days as a slave.
-----------------------------
Clothes and Equipment: Generally, Reuna wears one of five sets of identical robes, with high collars and long slightly-loose sleeves, in black, dark grey, purple, dark green, and dark blue. Commonly-carried equipment consists of her personal grimoire, a traveling writing kit (with ink well, quills, and writing desk), and a belt with pouches that contain various items (both magical and non); though perhaps not considered equipment, her raven companion Karrik always accompanies her.

Having decided to sit down for a few minutes, Reuna was startled to suddenly find a puppy in her lap. She blinked down at the ball of fluff as he placed his paws on her chest, then began to laugh when he proceeded to lick her face. "Oh, you are a right rascal, aren't you? An adorable rascal, though." Then she abruptly stiffened. The wards were alerting her to an intruder. Before Edward could even call out to the pup, Reuna had scooped him into her arms and was bolting toward the front door at top speed - which was surprisingly fast, given she was in a dress.
Clutching Paulie to her chest, she came to a stop only when she reached the door, whereupon she was gazing suspiciously over Edward's shoulder at the unfamiliar figure. She was already gathering magic, and the floor below her feet began to glow in a series of intricate purple runes. "How can we help you?" He was in the company of a time mage, and a woman who was a very powerful sorceress in her own right.. he should be very careful with what he said and did, or he would find himself in a very bad situation. As this happened, her mind reached out to Karrik, and she issued a few brisk instructions to the raven.
Said raven would then turn to Gavin and, applying all of his considerable mental focus (for a raven), spoke into the boy's mind in brief sentences. No move. Not safe. Reuna protect with wards. Even as the raven passed on this message, Karrik hopped forward onto Gavin's lap, perching there. The ground below Gavin began to glow with purple runes as well, and it was clear that whatever Reuna was doing, it was going to happen soon.

Edward turns his head when he hears a voice. Strange they were not expecting anyone. He eyes the figure curiously tall, armored, emanating magic some kind of construct then. It didn't seem hostile but such creatures could be unpredictable as he had learned in the past. He removes his glasses and places them his in front pocket. With his time sight no longer blocked possible future spread out before him. Countless drops in an endless ocean. He shifts through the relevant ones rapidly before settling on a course of action. He waits until Reuna is at his side than says in a pleasant tone.
"Yes, do you need something?"

"Yes... I need your help" The Inquisitor muttered solemnly, his armored hand peeking out from under the robe. He reached into his robe, shuffling about a little. The demeanor of The Inquisitor was one to be feared, he sounded human, yet there was something off about him. If Edward were to further inspect or intrude on The Inquisitor's past he would find horrible, horrible acts of violence. He would fine heinous crimes of a most sadistic nature against man, women and children alike.
"This map... I need someone who can decipher it and tell me how to get there... As far as I recall it will require inter-dimensional travel... Something up your alleyway, no?" He pulled a wooden tablet about five inches long out of his robe. The wood was ancient and the inscription slightly faded.
The Inquisitor knew perfectly well that the two were weary of him, and to tread carefully, he could after all feel Reuna behind Edward, charging something.

Edward flicks his hand and the map appears in his grasp. The actually review of the document is largely a formality at this point. The only reason he does so is so he can pull out one of his silver spheres. He scans the document for review of additional details at a later date. With another flick of his wrist the map is returned to The Inquisitor. The time mage chose his next words carefully.
"You are correct inter-dimensional travel is within my purview. I was also able to decipher your map. My major issue is I know what you are and what you were built for. Regardless of end goals I do not approve of your methods. Why should I help you and potentially jeopardize innocent lives."
This is were the futures branch most chaotically. It was always the case when dealing with a conversation and introducing a contentious element. Even with a construct the number of possible or variations of responses and actions was innumerable. Still common threads could be located futures with similarities grouped together. The time mage begins to draw in power. It is a minute chance but there is handful of futures where the armor tries force. If that was the case he'd rather be safe than sorry.

"I am understanding of your decision" The Inquisitor spoke calmly, gently placing the map back into his robe. He knew that force or mere persuasion wouldn't serve him in this situation, he would have to tell Edward the truth and rely on his judgement. "My destination is void of human life, there is nothing but... Evil" He chose the last word carefully, thinking back on the area. "This map" He tapped the tablet inside the robe "Leads to the man who brought life to me... The man who created me and indirectly every deed I have ever done... I am sure you're quite familiar with consequence and how it affects the future" The Inquisitor folded his hands peacefully behind his back.
"I have been roaming this land for decades in pain... When I had fulfilled my purpose my creator abandoned me and left me with my nature, and only that. I understand why I feel the way I feel, why I do the things I do. I don't feel guilt nor sorrow when taking a life, and who's fault is that? My limited grasp on the term justice would serve to think that the man who not only brought me here, but has hundreds like me, should face some sort of punishment, some sort of justice. I experience hate and anger much like you, and there is nothing that would please me more than to try and destroy my father".
"He is much like you... Except he has other values. He created me well knowing of what I would become" The Inquisitor inclined his head towards Edward's presumed wife "You have principle and things you hold dear, you have ideals and dignity, where as this man has nothing but his own sadistic approach to power and abusing it. All I ask is that you help me find him".
The Inquisitor's voice was that of a man, and had been mostly void of emotion during the entire interaction. When touching the subject of his creator there was however the faintest hint of aggression, the slight hissing in his voice, the contempt was obvious to any observant individual.

While Edward conversed with the armored figure, Reuna's ward finished building, and a shimmering, opaque violet shell sprung up around Gavin and Karrik. Using just a hint of her magic, she soothed Paulie into a light sleep, still cradling the pup within her arms and gazing mistrustfully past Edward toward the Inquisitor. She glanced briefly toward Gavin, just to make sure the boy was safe and not freaking out, then back at the figure. Her gaze narrowed when Edward spoke of the individual before them and jeopardizing innocents. That was something inexcusable to the sorceress. Nothing was said, however; she was still tapped into the tower's wards and focusing on enacting defensive - and offensive - measures if need be.

Gavin stared from inside the protective shield at the strange armored figure. He sat patiently and said nothing. Daddy and Reu could take him for sure. But something about him gave him chills. As he carefully pet Karrik, a thought occurred to him. "He does feel guilty. He's lying. But the guilt doesn't work right. I don't... get it."
The raven purred softly.

The futures branch before him once again. Which does Edward choose? There is no good option only lesser evils. Does he allow this creature to continue to exist? It will stop at nothing in its quest for revenge. Its focus may be on a man deserving of its wrath, but during the pursuit it often comes into contact with others. The results of those confrontation vary but many are violent. If he simply turns it away then it goes to find another capable of what he can do. Dependent on a few factors it often fails and on occasion returns to try and force him to help. The last option was to simply destroy it here and now.
The time mage debates and considers and finally makes a decision. He makes a gesture and the silver sphere produces shoots out a beam of light. It impacts the scroll adding annotations to it. Within seconds the map has instructions on it. They are sufficient for any mage with the skill to make portals, to be able to make one to the dimension where the Inquisitors master dwells. This done Edward continues to gather energy and says in a voice kind yet firm.
"That is all I will do for you. This is the least of all possible evils. Do not return here again. Do not make me regret my decision. Leave."

If The Inquisitor had a smile to flash he would've, but all he did was glance at the sphere. As Edward laid out the extent of his generosity, The Inquisitor found himself perfectly satisfied with the outcome. "You are a most noble man. I thank you" He murmured faintly. Suddenly The Inquisitor turned on his heel, initiating a slow and steady walk away from the tower. His cloak brushed against the grass, there was something menacing about the way he walked. Within a minute or so The Inquisitor would be entirely gone, having disappeared into the trees of the surrounding woodlands. There was however a strange feel looming in the air, a sense of discomfort or perhaps worry. It was like when a dog knows something is amiss, but nothing ever happens.

Reuna said not a word during this exchange, and she didn't even begin to relax until the figure was well beyond the detection range of her wards. Then she slumped against the doorway, allowing the runes at her feet to disappear; this had the added effect of lowering the shield around Gavin. Shakily, she lowered Paulie to the floor, and once he had left the grasp of her fingers, the magic would allow him to awaken. Springing to his feet, he ran toward Gavin, yapping.
Only then did Reuna begin to breathe again, her hand pressed over her rapidly-beating heart. It had been quite some time since she'd been that frightened or disturbed by something, and she felt every moment of her fifty years in that instant. Closing her eyes, she leaned her head back against the door frame behind her, and tried to just.. calm down.

Edward calmly takes his glasses out of his shirt pocket. He places them on his nose, once again repressing his time sight. He lets out a long deep breath and with it the energy he had stored. He walks over and scoops Gavin into his arms. He then goes over to Reu and pulls her into the embrace. He just holds his two most important people for a long time. Even though he knew they were in no real danger... It had still frightened him. There had been a minuscule number of possibilities where they got hurt. Even knowing that it was damn near impossible.... It had terrified him. So he holds them, partly for their benefit but also for his own. That is what it meant to be family after all.

Physical Description: Reuna is a striking study in contrasts. She is just slightly above female average, height-wise, standing at 5'8", and is slender, with a fragile bone structure that makes her look weak; this is, of course, balanced out by her strength and skill in magic. Her hair is long, descending to her waist, and is purely black, which is a sharp opposition to her pale-skinned features. Her eyes are the color of amethyst, dark and intense, and are usually the only method from which one can derive her mood, as she very rarely displays her emotions via facial expressions. She appears young, in her mid-thirties, although if one looks closely enough, they can see the beginnings of fine lines around her eyes and mouth. Although few have ever seen them, due to her tendency to keep herself fully covered from neck to toes, she has whip-mark scars covering most of her back, and scars from long periods spent in manacles around both of her wrists, remnants from her days as a slave.
-----------------------------
Clothes and Equipment: Generally, Reuna wears one of five sets of identical robes, with high collars and long slightly-loose sleeves, in black, dark grey, purple, dark green, and dark blue. Commonly-carried equipment consists of her personal grimoire, a traveling writing kit (with ink well, quills, and writing desk), and a belt with pouches that contain various items (both magical and non); though perhaps not considered equipment, her raven companion Karrik always accompanies her.

Reuna's eyes snapped open as Edward pulled her into his arms, and she immediately returned the embrace, instinctively wrapping one arm around Gavin where he was half-sandwiched between the two of them. At the boy's words, she breathed a watery laugh, tears filling her eyes; a single droplet trickled down her cheek and she hastily dashed it away with her hand. "Yes, little prince, m-mommy and daddy are alright." She stumbled over that word a little before she pressed a tender kiss to Gavin's brow, then turned her head and kissed Edward on the lips. It was brief, but hard, yet filled with emotions; relief and love, mostly. That had been a touch too frightening, for her liking.

Age: Yesterday.
Physical Description: Edward Laurént stands at 5'10. He has midlength black hair, and a clean shaven face. Previously his facial features were hard to remember, since he has begun wearing glasses they have become easier to recall. He looks to be in his late twenties, with a strong jaw, mid set cheek bones, straight narrow nose, and full lips. He appears to be in decent physical condition, though he is a bit pale.
Edwards eyes are an odd shade of blue, and they quite literally glow. With his glasses on, the glowing is the only remarkable thing about them. When you stare into his eyes when his glasses off though... it can be an odd experience. Staring into his eyes gives the impression that time has ceased to flow. Then you become aware of just how fast you are moving through the void of space. Most students avoid looking into his eyes.

Clothes and Equipment: Previously Edward only owned one suit of clothing. He retains these clothes, as a sort of work uniform. His style of dress when working is odd. He wears: sturdy blue cotton pants, an over sized coat of some unknown material, a sweater with a hood sewn onto it, and a large scarf. Each piece of clothing fluctuates in state of repair, and cleanliness through the day. If these clothes were not so eccentric, he could easily be considered a beggar while wearing them.
Edward has begun to expand his wardrobe in recent months. His first new accessory is a pair of glasses. Unlike other time mages, Edward struggled with turning off his time sight, rather than turning it on. His glasses are enchanted to suppress it. When not working he tends to wear casual clothing. Loose white shirts, and simple leather leggings. He also has a handful of stylish, if simple mage robes for special occasions.

Edward cannot help but smile as Gavin call Reuna mommy. Then to have her accept the tittle with only the slightest stumble. Perhaps it was true what they said about every dark cloud having a silver lining. Paulie begins to paw at his leg, wanting to be involved in the interaction. He chuckles and releases the embrace settling Gavin on the ground. Paulie falls upon his playmate with a fervor and Edward wraps an arm around Reu's shoulder. He leans in and whispers.
"So I guess it will be mommy after all."

She chuckled softly, wiping tears from her eyes with delicate fingers, then leaned into Edward, her head upon his shoulder and her arms wrapped around his torso. "I suppose it will. It feels.. good. Right."

Gavin's face turns red. "Uh... SO, WHO WAS THAT DADDY?!" He says as he rushes towards Paulie to pick him up. "He seemed bad, but I'll bet you two would have kicked his butt!"
To be perfectly honest, although he was scared, there was certainly a part of him that wanted to see his powerful sorceress of an adopted mother and time master father in action. He knew enough about magic to know that he hadn't seen anything close to their full potential before. It was a wholly natural, if a bit perverse, thought that crossed most children's minds at one point or another. How well could their parents fight?
Gavin liked to imagine that Reu at least could level a forest.

<Time-skip to a few months later>
Reuna sat in her study, with a few books spread out across her desk in front of her. She didn't seem to be paying much attention to them, though. Rather, the sorceress was writing down notes on a piece of paper and glancing at various others that she had scattered across the wooden surface. She would stop occasionally, read one, then mutter to herself and begin writing, then the whole process would rinse and repeat. There were also random swatches of material and a few small vases that held flowers in an entire rainbow of colors.
Every so often, the dark haired woman would stop what she was doing entirely, and look down at her left hand. Specifically, at the ring with its blue stone that resided on her fourth finger. She would smile, lightly stroke her fingertip across the gemstone, then sigh dreamily and go back to what she was doing. Anyone who observed her long enough would probably realize.. she was working on planning her wedding. And it got even more attention than the work she should have been doing.
