"The broom got mad? Imbued with flight and sentience then? That seems like a poor combination. A theory supported by what you just told me. Did you do this voluntarily? Or was the item acquired elsewhere? I am curious as to the magics that were used."
Temus's face is as blank as ever, but he has cocked his head curiously. He has also lessened his death grip on his book. Evidently a good way to loosen him up, was by giving him a magic related question. He tastes the blood still on his face, and can feel it drying. This is enough to distract him from his line of questioning. He needed to get back to his rooms, and clean up. Unfortunatly he cannot flee yet, that would be rude.

Eloria Tyrins
Dedicated
Roleplay posts: 130 
Age: Uhh.. lost count?
Physical Description: Generally referred to as tiny and adorable, Eloria is 4'10" tall and petite. Although she appears to be barely into her teens, her purple-pink eyes have a wisdom and age about them surprising for one seemingly so young. Her hair, which falls to her knees when it's not bound up into its usual ponytail, is a pale shade of purplish-pink. Her skin is lightly-tanned due to lots of time outdoors, and she has no visible scars, or any defining physical characteristics, aside from her finely-formed, adorable facial features. This is excluding the line of intricate magical tattoos down her back, which are forged directly into her spirit, allowing her constant access to the summon spirits she's made pacts with - all ten of them.
------------------------------------
Clothes and Equipment: Typically, Eloria wears a very.. definitive outfit. On her lower half, she wears a pair of voluminous bright pink pants, tucked into white-and-purple ankle-high boots. On her tap half, she wears a purple, midriff-baring strapless top, on top of which is a white short-sleeved vest with long tails and purple edging. Accessory-wise, she wears a purple belt over her vest, a green bright green scarf knotted around her neck, two long gloves of pale purple, a single purple sphere dangling from her left ear, and two thick bracelets - a golden one around her right wrist, and a turquoise one around her left. The bracelets and earring aren't just for show; they're inlaid with strong enchantments. Additionally, she carries a broom.. that flies, and also is apparently at least semi-sentient, as she speaks to it.

Her nose crinkled at his questions, and she shifted her arms, left on her hip as right rose to once again rub anxiously at the back of her head. The expression on her face was one of, 'Yeah I did a stupid thing, I know, you don't have to say it', as she uttered an awkward laugh. "Heheheh.. well um.. I'm the one who did the enchantment, but it was uh.. kind of an accident. I didn't mean to make him smart. It just kinda happened that way."
Her embarrassment faded as he answered her question, arms shifting to clasp behind her as she rocked back and forth on her feet, from heel to toe and back again. "Isra, huh? Interesting. I'll have to do some exploring." Movement overhead caught her attention, and she yelped as she saw her broom go soaring past. "Hey! Broomy! Wait up!" Turning to chase after the delinquent cleaning implement, she paused, and shot Temus a sunny grin. "Thanks for everything! Hope to see you around!" And with that, she darted off into the streets, running after her wayward steed.

The shadow, of an expression of curiosity crosses Temus's face. It lends the cocking of his head, a further puppy like quality. He was trying to fathom why she laughed. He had not said anything intended to be humorous. The mage had only asked her questions. His confusion only increases, as he observes the constant twitching movements of the energetic girl. Then she thanks him and runs away.
"You are welcome."
Temus says to her retreating back. He was bewildered, he hadn't done anything deserving of thanks. The entire interaction had just served to confuse him. He stands still for a full three minutes, before he finally remembers he should be returning home.

Whir
Committed
Roleplay posts: 95
Age: 23
Physical Description: Whir stands approximately six feet and five inches (nearly two meters) tall. His skin ranges from pale to dark blue and is lined with bright markings that do not appear to be tattoos. Dark blue crystals shoot back from his scalp where hair would be on a pure blooded human. He is lithe and corded, muscles defined, but not pronounced.
Clothes and Equipment: ...
Simple clothing hangs from Whir's slim body. The only apparent armor a banded chest plate made of what appears to be some dark wood. Resting on a loop attached to the back of this chest piece is a long and narrow sword. To the untrained observer it almost appears as a needle, with the eye replaced by a pommel set with some light blue gem. The sword is in fact, made from a single crystal of orichalcum. The rapier-like double edged blade is nearly indestructible despite its thin profile. A leather wrap starts at the pommel and runs about eighteen inches up the body of the sword, where immediately after, the five foot long blade takes an edge.

Whir strides up the street from Isra's southern gate. Now this was a city. He hadn't been in one so large in quite some time. The noises of the city were both fun and overwhelming after weeks in the open fields and forests. "Now I can find someone to trade this gem to for some coin and have a good time tonight," he said to no one particular. He set off to search in earnest for just such a shop or stall.
After several minutes of polite query, he was able to locate such a vendor.

Crow strolls through the streets of Isra. It was all so different. The people were all normal, happy, vibrant and alive. There was so much color and light. And the noise! By the river, so many people all talking at once. He couldn't shift through all the information, he was receiving. Getting started on his new life, might be harder than he thought. |

If Crow were paying attention, he might notice a girl slipping through the crowd and picking wallets and coinpurses. She would bump into people, cut their purses, and slip off behind a tree or street vendor. She seemed to be watching the customers at a fried octopus seller, picking her victims by carefully watching their wallets as they bought their delicious deep-fried cephalopods. She did it casually, as though it were nothing more than an idle pastime.

Crow isn't paying close attention, but one of his murder is. Theft was not an unknown in Bridge Town, but the manner in which it was done here was interesting. The sinuous movements of the woman, reminded him of The Fisher King.
You should talk to her.
Whatever for?
Her type know cities, she could provide a wealth of information.
Fair enough
Crow takes a seat on a bench, and works his magic. A crow lands next to Liliput and it preens a bit, before it's eyes turn red. Crow's soft, cultured voice emanates from the bird.
"Hello, I saw you taking that which isn't yours. A friend of mine tells me, that people like you know things. Things about this world, if you are willing I'd like to have a chat. I am sitting on a bench, just over there."
The crow points with it's beak in Crow's direction. His eyes glow the same red as the birds. He waves at the woman, a genial welcoming smile on his face. |

Lili jumps, startled by the talking bird.
"Huh?"
Glancing over in the direction it's pointing, she sees Crow waving. The young thief takes a moment to contemplate her options. She could run, or she could go over to the man. Of she ran, she would surely be caught by the birds, but who knows what would happen if she went over to him. Hesitating for a moment, she walks over. She slides her hand inside her coat, gripping the handle of a knife.
"What's up?"
Her tone is light and casual, although Crow might detect a hint of worry.

Crow gestures vaguely at the seat beside him. The girl may choose to sit, or stand as she wishes. He simply want's to ensure she knows she has the option. He takes a moment to eye her up, his eyes turning back to their normal silver color as she does. He gives her a small friendly smile, and says politely.
"What's up? A direction. Unless that is some kind of local slang. Sorry I am new to these parts, so I don't know everything or anything really. That is why I asked to speak with you. I would like to make a bargain. I assume you are familiar with this world, and also this city correct? I would like you to share that information with me. In exchange I can help you, just give me a price." |

"A price?"
Lili shrugs.
"What do you have that I would want? Money? I have that. I can get as much as I want. Protections?"
She chuckles.
"Why would I ask for protection from someone I've never met?"
Still chuckling, she sits down.
"But I dunno...you seem kinda funny. Those birds could come in handy. Tell you what. I'll tell you about the city, then you can pay me back later. How's that sound, hmm?"
She grins, gesturing vaguely around.
"I know everything about this city, you hear? Everything. So whattaya say?"

Crow eye the girl curiously. Hesitancy and turned to enthusiasm and confidence, rather quickly. Not that he was complaining. He preferred his deals to be amicable, The Fisher King handled the unpleasant ones. He nods once in affirmation.
"I say? It sounds as though we have an accord. You will answer my questions, in exchange for a service at a later date. The net is cast. I will start with the most pressing question. I am given to understand that coin, is what is needed for trade on this plane. What is the most efficient way of acquiring it?" |

"For you? I don't know. What do you don't? You can sell things, or you can do stuff for people. Hmm...you have that sorta youngish face that noblewomen like. I suppose you could work for one of them, hehehe..l have no idea. It depends on what you know how to do."

Crow watches the crowd pass by curiously. So many people. In just five minutes, he had seen more people pass than had been in all of Bridge Town. He thinks on what she has just said. What were his skills? Too numerous to count. Between himself and The Fisher King, there was very little they couldn't accomplish.
"I can do many things. I used to make my living, by acquiring things others couldn't, and ruling my territory with fear and shadows. Could I do something similar here?" |

"Acquiring things others can't?"
Lili grins, glancing around.
"That is a very useful skill. You could make a lot of money off that. What's your name, anyway? I'm Lili. Gimme a minute."
She gets up and walks to the other side of the street, being sure to jostle a rich-looking merchant. She goes to a vendor at the other side and purchases sticks of sugar-and-cinnamon-coated fried dough. Snacks in hand, she walks back and sits down next to Crow.
"Here you go. The trick is to always have a destination. Guards notice if you just loiter somewhere, or if you walk back and fourth in one spot for two long. They'll tell you to stop lollygagging. But if I just got up to get a snack, nobody notices."
She grins, jingling a large coinpurse.
"Here, take one of these things. They're good. Now where were we? Oh, right. What's your name?"

Crow watches Lili closely as she goes. She takes a pouch from a man, and goes to a vendor. Coins are exchanged, the thief producing them from a pouch. So that is why she took them. Other people kept their coin in the pouches. Take the pouch get the coin, a simple trick. He takes the offered treat, and takes a bite. It is sweet, sweeter than anything he has ever tasted. His eyes go wide at the unexpected taste. This much sugar would have been worth a fortune, in Bridge Town.
"You can call me Crow. A pleasure to make your acquaintance Lili. And yes acquiring things, I know many ways of doing so. For example..."
Crow squeezes the head of his cane, and The Fisher King gives him some power. He dips his hand into a shadow, and when he withdraws it, it is full of coin. A man down the street begins patting, his suddenly deflated wallet. |

"Whoa..."
Lili's eyes widen in shock.
"How'd you do that? What sort of trick is that? You just reached into nothing, and took that guy's wallet? From all the way over here? How is that possible?"
She stares at him, then at the coinpurse, then at the man across the street.
"What...is this magic? Who are you? How did you learn how to do that?"

Crow looks at the woman surprised. He supposed magic wasn't as common in this world. He eyes his stolen coins curiously. They are shiny and made of gold. So odd that these could be exchanged for goods. After a few moments, he turns his attention back to Lili. He begins to answer her questions, ticking them off on his fingers.
"Umbramancy, or shadow magic, that is the type of spell I used. For a skilled shadow mage, reaching through shadows is easy. I already told you my name. Though if you want the full thing, I am known as King of Crows. As to how I learned it... That is knowledge that is worth something. I don't make a habit of giving things of value away for free, sorry."
He has three digits extended when his finished. He closes his hand into a fist, and says curiously.
"So my skill in acquisitions can be used to get coin. Still just plundering purses seem inefficient. Also I imagine that power is still the real thing to desire here. How can my skills in acquisitions get me that?" |

"Hmm...if it's power you want..."
Lili sits down, crunching her snack thoughtfully.
"I'd say you should start a business. Not an above-board one, thought. There's no money in doing it legal. You said you can get things for people, right? Set up a market, where you get things for people that they can't get elsewhere. You'll be rolling in gold, and you'll have plenty of power too."
She leans in close, whispering in Crow's ear.
"Just watch out for the Midnight Sun. They're trouble. More trouble than the guards."

Physical Description: Crow stands at 5'11, with a slim build. His skin his deathly pale, and his hair is a silver white, mostly from lack of sun. His eyes are a glinting silver, and gleam with a thoughtful intelligence. He has delicate cheek bones, a narrow jaw, and thin lips. Overall his face is too delicate too be considered handsome, but he is rather pretty.

Crow nods thoughtfully. The Midnight Sun? One of his birds locates it. Some kind of tavern, brimming with magical energies. Curious, he would have to make the acquaintance of the proprietor. After all, it appeared as though Grandma had been correct. Controlling even this city would prove challenging. It would be better to control only a part of it. For example a market, and perhaps a section of town the size of Bridge Town. He gets to his feet brushing off his pants.
"Come Lili, we shall walk and talk. Tell me of the law. I want to know about, what I will be on the wrong side of." |

Physical Description: Lili is a rather short girl with a surprisingly curvaceous figure for a street urchin. She has short brownish hair and a keen look in her eye.
Clothes and Equipment: Lili usually wears dark leather clothing befitting of a thief when she's doing B&E jobs. Otherwise, she wears normal street clothes. She carries with her a full set of lockpicks and a blackened knife. In addition to the picks and knife, she has a coil of rope and a grappling hook. Usual thief things.

Lili laughs.
"I can't just tell you about th law, Crow. It's something that you learn. It takes years to get every little detail. I know, because I know every little detail. For example, a fat guard is going to walk around that corner in about a minute."
About a minute later, a rather rotund guard does indeed walk around the corner.
"See, he's a stickler for the rules. He believes in the bags, and won't take bribes. However, he's fat and easy to outrun. Some guards take bribes, some don't. Some will be able to catch you if you run, and some won't. It's all just something you get to know by being out here for a long time."
She smiles brightly.
"Usually, the guards are easy to outrun, especially if you know the city as well as I do."
