Ignace begins to pack her things back into the sewing basket to carry them back to the sewing room.
"Lang...I am glad that you are feeling better. I...I do not think that you know me very well yet. You do not understand. It is dangerous to be around me. I...I do not think it is good for you to be too attached to me," she said, clearly distressed. "Excuse me. Now that you are recovered I need to leave."
"I suppose, in your eagerness to leave the room- and the awkwardness of your reactions to the other door's occupants, you did not hear me properly when I spoke of the assistance we sought."
She looks annoyed at Sun at this point.
"Your looks, are irrelevant to me in case that is a concern on your part, as you clearly are intelligent and capable of more than a baboon naturally would do. Your ability to be vague, is acknowledged as well."
With a deep breath, she repeats herself for Sun, "We have a possible need for someone gifted with the ability to speak or interact with spirits. I do not believe the need is urgent, however, as there is some discussion yet on what next steps. A choice needs to be made."
Then she looks at Sun and waits, again. Not looking towards the door leading to Lung Fei's situation.
"Please let me know if my Common tongue is lacking in conveying what is required properly. I'm certain that these fine people here would appreciate any and all assistance with this spirit situation."
Once more, Anahita stands there patiently, seemingly patiently, and waits.
"Well... if you aren't going to attack..." Vai casts Haste and Quickened Cat's Grace on herself. "Defense means loosing the initiative, remember."
With a blur of motion almost unfollowable by the human eye he explodes into action
Slashing, Cutting, Slicing, Hacking, Thrusting, kicking, punching, flipping, and spinning in a dance of death and destruction...
when he slows back down he is bleeding from five cuts on his hands and arms and one in his side..
"Your defence is superb, miss..."
"It's what I do," she said, molding a little of her forcefield to the cut on her leg and the one on her shoulder. They were bleeding more than expected. It left her shield less mobile, but keeping her blood inside her body seemed more important at the moment. It still worked as long as she manifested her forcefield as a long thin ribbon wrapped around her that she could move aside here and there as necessary.
She pressed the attack this time, blade flashing as she moved with incredible speed, although Renkai certainly wasn't at a disadvantage in that arena.
"You are using Magic? I thought this was a contest of blades? Anything to win I take it..."
Renkai pulls a black bladed rapier with his other hand and the air in front of his face wavers slightly as his wounds seal themselves.
His voice is slightly muffled as he says, "Bring it on, Darling."
Then as she starts to attack he willingly gives ground, blocking only what he cannot dodge and parrying what he cannot block. He seems to be totally reinvigorated and fresh for battle.
Ignace begins to pack her things back into the sewing basket to carry them back to the sewing room.
"Lang...I am glad that you are feeling better. I...I do not think that you know me very well yet. You do not understand. It is dangerous to be around me. I...I do not think it is good for you to be too attached to me," she said, clearly distressed. "Excuse me. Now that you are recovered I need to leave."
Wait. What are you talking about? attached? has Sun been saying things? look I only want to be friends. Please don't leave
But she left already Lang sits on the bed trying to be strong
she hates me now, I should go after her, no that would only upset her more. Man I wish i knew what to do.
Lang just lays back in the bed hiding his face in the pillow trying to cover up his embarrasment.
his eyes fill with excitement. "ooh. a spell-caster." he swiftly analyses the spells. "Heh. not a bad choice. won't help you much though... you want an attack?fine." He lashes out using combat expertise, and only at his lowest bab, using the others for a parry.
"Ok but wuzzat?" If it can be considered'magic' by our standards he knows what it is with analuze dewomer ane would like an explanation.
johnny holds up the object. t has no magic at all, dead as a rock.
“This, this is a sub- selfaware drone, kind of eyes and ears for storm or me, always best to make them under full sentiance you know , lot of moral implications in making a another being with sentience, so sub human AI with basic systems for propulsion and sencurum intake. its inactive at the moment but fine for what I need. So now you know, lead on my good cat "
"It's really quite simple. You stand on a platform and the nanites examine you down to a cellular level, including mapping out your genetic code. Nanites are machines too tiny for most to see with the naked eye. Then my mother can tell us what the results mean."
That sounds simple enough.
"Were you not paying attention before? It's not like I just started using the forecefield this second. It's not magic the way most people mean that. It's part of me. It's just something I can do," she said, eyes narrowed as she watched him. This battle just got a lot harder. She was still losing blood, even if she was using parts of her shield as an emergency bandage. And now he appeared to be completely healed. "And I did say I wasn't going to handicap myself."
She retreated slightly, waiting for him to come towards her. She couldn't afford to waste energy now.
Renkai pulls a black bladed rapier with his other hand and the air in front of his face wavers slightly as his wounds seal themselves.
Adon catches this in the corner of his vision
spellcraft to analyze the blade so he can make the check-knowledge arcane to know it's a "black blade".
His eyes widen. he's too busy right now, but he must have a look at that later.
"I was more focused on preventing that nasty little blade of yours from parting my ribs from the rest of me..."
He steps back toward the crowd and disappears
His voice is directly in her ear an instant later.
"Shall we end this now?"
Then he is back where he disappeared from...
"Come and fight me, bladed princess... no? then I will come to you!"
He charges and simultaniously slashes downward and thrusts; then two sweeping blows one high one low, a pair of thrusts, a single sweep with a feinted thrust... his hands working totally independantly of each other... when the black blade sweeps by she smells a slightly nautious odor, indicating poison...
He pulls back slightly on his assault... face clearing of its maniacle intensity...
Sun heads to a chair
mind if I sit?
Lang can help you in that regard but he has now only jouneyed into the spirit world once, but he has quickly adapted to this new found power. Lang doesn't fully realize this yet but a part of what he is, is the bridge between our worlds. between the spirit world and this. He his learning the skills to communicate on our behalf to the various spirits and in return he will bring back important information from them.
lang has already found a troubled spirit he says was bound and full of rage. I can't really pronunce its name but i think it is something like Kryshy -- something
Sun glances toward the door
I also think Lang really likes that girl Ignace and I was hopeing that some time alone would help to see if she feels the same about him.
After Sun speaks of Lang and the connection with spirits, especially at the mention of the spirit's name, which she appears to recognize Anahita gives a silent, 'Ah.' and seems thoughtful.
With a nod after a moment's thought, Anahita says simply, "Excellent. One step complete. Unless we are in haste, I recommend Ori Reading work with Lang Fei, or alternatively, seek out this Mister Lysander, so that they both can grow into a new focus together in this."
She gives Ori Reading a polite and faint smile saying, [b]"If you wish to spend time with me at some point, Professor Reading, in order to vent any pent up rage, I would be happy to do so with you. I often find myself in a similar situations and dispense it for the good of my state of mind and soul. Please inform me as your situation progresses, as you wish, or you desire my further assistance, Professor. I leave you in these gentle being's competent hands." She then turns to look at the assembled.
Anahita at this point nods to the Headmaster, Salis and Sun, before walking for the door leading out. She then steps outside and touches the walls with her finger tips, creating arrows in the direction she was already heading.
"Kryshyykilii'vkk? This Lang spoke with it? That's the spirit we were talking about, the one that's bound to me. Full of rage is definitely an accurate description," she interrupted, astounded at this sudden piece of luck.
"I was more focused on preventing that nasty little blade of yours from parting my ribs from the rest of me..."
He steps back toward the crowd and disappears
His voice is directly in her ear an instant later.
"Shall we end this now?"
Then he is back where he disappeared from...
"Come and fight me, bladed princess... no? then I will come to you!"
He charges and simultaniously slashes downward and thrusts; then two sweeping blows one high one low, a pair of thrusts, a single sweep with a feinted thrust... his hands working totally independantly of each other... when the black blade sweeps by she smells a slightly nautious odor, indicating poison...
He pulls back slightly on his assault... face clearing of its maniacle intensity...
Sadie was hard pressed to keep clear of the poisoned blade, and ended up with another cut from the other blade, this time along her arm. But she gave as good as got, leaving wounds on her opponent's shoulder and chest. Scratches only, it was the most she could do while his guard was up and he was moving with such speed. She couldn't remember the last time she'd had to work so hard in a fight. It was exhilirating.
She laughed. "It's been too long since I faced an opponent who could really challenge me. I'd forgotten how much fun it is."

Renkai simultaniously sheathes his sword and tosses the borrowed blade into the stone at the students feet. Renkai bows low, and says quietly... meaning for only her to hear but in the silence it is clearly audible to everyone.
"You are a very fine fighter, Thank you for your time, You won our match, Sadie. Your useful power and your tenatious and inventive attack routines were marvolous to behold..."
His knees buckle and he slams face first into the stone floor unable to move.
Renkai was transported to the infirmary as he fell.
Sadie looked around. "Okay, unless one of you is a cleric, I need to go to the infirmary now. Try not to kill each other while I'm gone."
Vai fluttered in and out, testing Adon's defenses... which were definitely solid. It was like fighting Sadie, almost. Her friend hand makes a quick motion and a shield shimmers into focus on her left hand, and she touches swords again with Adon.
"You're very good. How well do you deal with the unexpected though?" Vai vanishes suddenly from Adon's view, reappearing behind him, where she moves to strike at him before vanishing once again and appearing on the other side of the training space, well out of reach for a counter-attack.
Ehos jumps up. He had understood what happened. He'd seen enough warriors slip with poisoned blades. He runs over a puts a hand on Sadie's shoulder. 'I'll go. You'll want to clean your blade. You are probably more needed here than me.'

"Good to know about the blade," she said, swaying a bit, "but I'm going to pass out from blood loss here as soon as I let down my forcefield...so I think I really need to go to the infirmary."
Dave nods at his answer in agreement, he figured a shorter answer is better but Ardiente's was quite well worded, Dave pats him on the back.at Sorchan's statement he says "you, me team up? He said whatever attack I want I want to see if anyone can counter my ice breath and your fire punches at once, take em at an angle what do you think?"
Ardiente once again looks a little... deflated. Not the flamboyant young man that Dave had met the previous day. Despite his quick answer and powerful channeling of flame, David may feel that Ardiente is being at very least introspective, if not outright sullen.
"I... I think the Professor meant that we should practice on each other, not unsuspecting students... though I could be mistaken. Are you healed by flame, Mr. Adamant, as we firebirds are?" Ardiente had noted that David hadn't even flinched when he had bent fire into him.
'I could heal you if only I could cast my magic. Many apologies. I think someone should come with you if that's the case, just to ensure the blood loss doesn't incapacitate you along the way. Come on. I'll help you.'
Once the Headmaster returns to his office, he will find Tyrrin waiting patiently just outside.
Dave nods at his answer in agreement, he figured a shorter answer is better but Ardiente's was quite well worded, Dave pats him on the back.at Sorchan's statement he says "you, me team up?

"not unless I focus on making it do so, it doesn't hurt in any case, neither fire nor frost can harm me, I set myself on fire on a regular basis, fire just does what I say. and he said pair up, teamwork is key I don't know anyon else in this class, what they can do you I got an inkling, "
"and besides they are here for a reason, just cause they aren't as awesome as us doesn't mean they're chumps, some of these guys look like second years," he says in an attempt to both chear him up and convince him "what do you say,"
Vai fluttered in and out, testing Adon's defenses... which were definitely solid. It was like fighting Sadie, almost. Her friend hand makes a quick motion and a shield shimmers into focus on her left hand, and she touches swords again with Adon.

attack on your attack:
He misses the parry, but still is quite ready, and blocks the strike with a flick of his blade, turning around just as fast as you appeared. "heh. you think that little trick will help you?"
he moves 30ft towards Vai. Adon ready's an action:
He nods to Anahita as she leaves. "Seems we may have a solution. Well a start at least. I will see what kind of information I can find upon this Kryshyykillii'vkk. With the spirit's name it should help narrow things down. Ah! Perhaps in the texts of Antediluvian Dolor of the second age." Salis rummaged through the satchel that had just earlier today assaulted him earlier. A few seconds later he pulls out a thick leaf bound book. He starts thumbing through the pages till he reaches a point in the book and starts reading.

Vai vanishes once again appearing in front of Adon. The wind caused by her wings and movement cause her skirt to flare out and up, revealing silky cerulean panties. She stops her charge, deeply embarrassed, using her shield hand to pull the skirt down, and open to being disarmed.
"Ok but wuzzat?" If it can be considered'magic' by our standards he knows what it is with analuze dewomer ane would like an explanation.johnny holds up the object. t has no magic at all, dead as a rock.
“This, this is a sub- selfaware drone, kind of eyes and ears for storm or me, always best to make them under full sentiance you know , lot of moral implications in making a another being with sentience, so sub human AI with basic systems for propulsion and sencurum intake. its inactive at the moment but fine for what I need. So now you know, lead on my good cat "
"You asked for it!" He says excitedly as he reaches over and puts an arm under each of Johnny's. You 'blink'. You are no longer sitting or standing on anything and you see you are being held up high above thw ground at about skydiving height above the garden. He holds hier there for a moment before saying "have fun!" And letting hier go to start plummeting to the Agartha.
"Kryshyykilii'vkk? This Lang spoke with it? That's the spirit we were talking about, the one that's bound to me. Full of rage is definitely an accurate description," she interrupted, astounded at this sudden piece of luck.
Sun goes over Ori and takes a seat closer
Well I don't know what actually happened, but when he came out he mentioned that name, and please don't make try and say it.Sun tries to move closer to sniff Ori (a baboon thing)
Do you have a connection with the spirit?
Dave nods at his answer in agreement, he figured a shorter answer is better but Ardiente's was quite well worded, Dave pats him on the back.at Sorchan's statement he says "you, me team up?

"wait so pair up as in one on one fights? meh" he gets an evil grin on his face "how good are you at countering ice breath, mine is quite potent"
When Sadie arrives in the infirmary she sees Renkai wearing only pants and the small cut she had made was totally black and tendrils of that blackness was spreading across his body....
"I'm afraid I'm not sure what you are talking about. Firebirds have innate fire magic. Er, most firebirds anyway. I'm sure you're aware of Raelle's unique abilities?" Ardiente lies, then tries to draw the conversation away from any more discussion about Bending. It wasn't somethign he wanted to talk about right now.
The young firebird blanches at the mention of ice breath. Cold attacks weren't something that firebirds trained with... to easy to accidently die. He glances nervously at Sorchan, remembering what the teacher had said about wards in this room. Well, pain he could stand, so long as he was safe. "Very well, I will see how I fare against it." Ardiente takes a deep breath, exhales and enters his stance. "Come."
"You asked for it!" He says excitedly as he reaches over and puts an arm under each of Johnny's. You 'blink'. You are no longer sitting or standing on anything and you see you are being held up high above thw ground at about skydiving height above the garden.

For Johnny this was something new, He has been Displaced a 1000 times and was use to the Silver sheen of the wormhole linking two locations event horizon formed around you. The slight air drop as you went with in shields down the warm whole and out other side, this nothing like that, one moment
Tybalt and Johnny where in the new the next some new place.The moment it happened Johnny lace went into AI time, doing things in fractions of a second has its warning system lit up. Johnnys body slow in a biological time frame hung for that fraction of a second. Wile s/he lace, boosted s/he thinking to match its. Tybalt was starting to say some thing but painfully slow. Now upto speed Johnny sent.
::"Storm, where am I?"::
::"errrmmm"::
this was something new, Johnny had never in his life had a Culture minds go "Errrmmm" before, it was the equivalent of it going "I don't know" that was the shocking part, Culture IAs above all things like to be 'In the know' about whats going off around them. Then
::"Ok got your above the school at some hight, your getting the numbers now, and as you can see falling, Your Cool Cat friend is close to you"::
::"yes I know hes saying some thing, Ha.. some thing? Hold on.. Got it, also metrology system just came back online, right falling, cool"::
::"I have a lock on you, tell me when and Ill Snap displace y...."::
::"Hold that Storm, I don't want you to ok, also stop the local system from getting a fix if you can, I want to see what happens."::
::"Well its your a** on the line, Ill do recent ex back-up wile you fall and try my best to black the local system, but I do not think I can. Wile you plum-it to an ouch again!"::
Johnny not at call caring says
::"ye ye Storm got ya, any way going to have some fun now"::
Johnny cut the link and let eased off the lace, Glanding some 'Slow' he focused in the dive.
Fly or in this case Sky Dive.
Johnny flipped into a pullet shape and then headed down, lets see what kitty cat can do
His tattoo popped a Affect field over s/he's eyes and then fanning out behind s/he made a kind of force field prop, drastically speeding up Johnny's descent, all the time with a wide grin on s/he's face.
"lets see you catch me."
Johnny calls out as he speeds like a mad-s/he to the ground.
Seeing that the people in the Infirmary are starting to really work on Ori's problem, Ryo quietly takes his leave and returns to his office.
"Hello again, Miss Denulia. What is it you wanted to see me about?" He asks, opening his office door and inviting her in.
Vai vanishes once again appearing in front of Adon. The wind caused by her wings and movement cause her skirt to flare out and up, revealing silky cerulean panties. She stops her charge, deeply embarrassed, using her shield hand to pull the skirt down, and open to being disarmed.
adon takes the opportunity immediately, and attepts to disarm vai.
he seems unfased by the accident with the skirt, and didn't even look.
"I'm afraid I'm not sure what you are talking about. Firebirds have innate fire magic. Er, most firebirds anyway. I'm sure you're aware of Raelle's unique abilities?"

Ardiente takes a deep breath, exhales and enters his stance. "Come."
"Hun I thought that was bending.. In any case it's my turn to attack, try to counter" he goes down and blasts a 30ft cone of ice from his mouth at roughly the same time he demorphs his arms and shoots out a spray of diamonds
Tyrrin graciously accepts the invitation, and sits down. She was still a little embarassed about her outburst in the infirmary, and so says somewhat reservedly, her head bowed slightly. "Before we begin Headmaster, I would like to apologize again for my outburst. My words were harsh when I did not mean them to be. I hope I have not caused any undue distress in Professor Reading. I was actually going to offer to teach her class while she recovered... I suppose it's too late for that now. I will be sure to apologize to Professor Reading personally, so that she knows I bear her no ill-will."
"Your on!" Tyb yells as je focuses his levitation to push him downward faster. He streamlines his sleek thin frame to decrease drag. He catches up and yells over the wind "this is where it gets technical! Give me your hand!" He holds his paw out as they near the garden below them.
adon takes the opportunity immediately, and attepts to disarm vai. 1d20+27
he seems unfased by the accident with the skirt, and didn't even look.
Her free hand still gripping the skirt, Vai is reminded that she's in the middle of a duel as she barely holds on to her blade against Adon's disarming maneuver. She vanishes again, reappearing behind him. She attempts several slashes, before vanishing again and reappearing once again across the room, forcing Adon to come to her once again. Her hand is still clutching the bottom of the skirt, and her face is bright red, trying not to listen to the whisperings of the other classmates watching the duel.

After a bit quiet time reflecting on what happened Lang gets out of bed to find Sun. He still moves about a bit solemnly He goes to the other room where he remembers seeing Sun go.
Sun/ he quietly calls out then upon seeing him with some others lang goes over there.
There you are, you trying to ruin everybody I meet or what. What did you tell Ignace, she hates me now, and...
Lang suddenly realizes there are others
ohhh I'm sorry, Lang bows to everyone I am Lang Fei, pleased to meet you all. Lang smiles as he greets everyone but it is pretty obvious that at present the smile is more forced that any real happiness to meet new people. though obviously not directed at anyone (except maybe Sun)
Lang looks back at Sun I hope you aren't going to get these people mad at me too glareing at Sun
"Apology accepted. I will let Professor Reading know of your offer."
"Nah, there isn't much I'm afraid of. Snakes are kinda cool actually"
"Excellent. Why don't you two join us inside then?" A half-orc with scales instead of skin asks. "Class is about to start."
The room itself doesn't look any different than other classrooms, except for the abundance of serpents everywhere. Letting a rather large python crawl up his arm, the half-orc chuckles at the students who are obviously uncomfortable with all the reptiles.
"Please, calm yourselves. My friends aren't going to bite you unless you provoke them, like any animal would. Just pay enough attention not to sit or step on one and you'll be fine. I am professor Ormarr, and this is Care for Magical Creatures. We'll start with something simple for the students new to class. Who can tell me something about familars and the usefulness they serve to spellcasters?"

He turns and blocks your attacks without much effort. he sheathes his sword, and says: "If you find your skirt to be embarrassing, we could take a break until you change into something more suitable. It seems you care about hiding your underclothes, so it seems for the best we stop until you change."

"MEEP. Meep meep me-eep meep meep meep. Meep." The tiny teacup drake says loudly from Kitty's shoulder. Kitty blushed.
"Sorry, Professor. Saffire seems to think he's an expert on the subject."
Ace raises his hand, and when called responds "Familiars are special animals, bound to a spellcaster and containing a small fragment of their soul. Thus empowered, they become quite a bit smarter than their mundane counterparts They are able to grant their master a variety of abilities, from enhanced senses to being able to deliver spells."
"Hun I thought that was bending.. In any case it's my turn to attack, try to counter" he goes down and blasts a 30ft cone of ice from his mouth 20d6 at roughly the same time he demorphs his arms and shoots out a spray of diamonds 16d6
Ardiente breaths out in sync with Dave, igniting the flames as he breath pushes them out towards the wave of cold. He then seems to grab some of the flames with his hands, and delivers a quick flurry of punches, sending flame out with each punch.
Ardiente is obviously fighting instinctively at this point, as he crouches into a different form as the wave of diamonds comes next... and then he suddenly realizes what he was doing. Instead he crosses his arms over his face, realizing it was too late to avoid the spray itself.
"Apology accepted. I will let Professor Reading know of your offer."
"No need, Headmaster. I will speak with her personally. Does she have any more classes to teach today?" Tyrrin seems to relax slightly as the Headmaster accepts her apology. "As for the other matter... ever since the inversion of the world, I have been having the same nightmare everytime I fall asleep. My Mother has said the Seer's gifts manifest in different ways in each Seer... and that the visions would cease when I was aware of what they were trying to warn me of... but I feel as though I've already figured out what these visions are warning me of."
"Jaiye suggested that I speak with you. I do not wish to add my burdens to your own, but I would very much appreciate your counsel."
He turns and blocks your attacks without much effort. he sheathes his sword, and says: "If you find your skirt to be embarrassing, we could take a break until you change into something more suitable. It seems you care about hiding your underclothes, so it seems for the best we stop until you change."
Vai all of a sudden looks resolute, determined. She let go of the deathgrip she had on her skirt. She fell back into a fighting stance, and though her face and neck were still scarlet, she flits over to Adon once again. "I'm fine. I'll stay focused. En garde!"
She seems to be staying true to her word at least, remaining focused on the task at hand.
