Aero and Aether turned to each other after somewhat listening to
what they have to say. Aether looked at Aero again "So... have you
decided yet? What side you're going to be on?" Aerowrapped her tail
around herself and held her head low.
"I don't know... both sides made good points... AGH! I would go
with you bro... but I'm unsure..." Aether rubbed her head.
"It's hard going to leave the norm, isn't it? But what if doing
that made the kingdom better? I know that rebelling against the
king right now would let our poor voices heard." Aero thought to
herself for a few seconds, deciding between Republican, Neutral,
and Loyalist. The two sides seem both too far... she then
decided.
"I'd rather stay neutral. I don't want to hurt anyone, and I don't
want anyone to be hurt. Even you!" Aero said to her brother before
resting her head on his tummy. Aether hugged her
"It's okay Aero... I honestly respect that decision. You've always
wanted to be on a side that doesn't hurt others. A side that makes
your life normal. Its fine okay?"

Discord: Aergalia
Winter + Aero + Aether
A shiny Zoroark was standing near them, though they really have to
look carefully to recognise him, because of the large blue cloak he
was wearing, if they had been in Luminia, they’d recognise this
shopkeeper. This was Remus...the party shop owner. He looked kind
of weary but even then, he still had a spark in his eyes. He had
disappeared recently...for reasons unknown. Those who had visited
Yung recently confirmed that he was alive the whole time. The aura
didn’t lie after all
Fortem and Mordred
“Smile...we should be optimistic even now...” Emerald murmured.
“Even if I had been drifting away recently, I never lost hope.” He
said to them both when he said this. He nuzzled them both
Clamor + Audax
The other two professors soon gathered. Professor Ryn, a Shaymin,
and Professor Conall, a Lycanroc. “Ah, it’s Ryn and Conall...” Thea
slowly turned around
Winter stared at the Zoroark. Judging from memory, this was Remus,
the 'party animal'of Luminia. It was weird to see him in this
state, as he'd always struck the snowy Vulpix as an upbeat,
generally energetic guy that just wanted to have fun, as he'd also
been described. It actually reminded him of someone close to him.
The mysterious vibe would normally suit the beast, however, his
dark type look in a cloak...yet Winter didn't like it, not
this one. Then again, he didn't know much of the guy, only
meeting him once, briefly, but maybe he'd be safe to approach?
Fortem grinned. It was good to have Emerald back. even if things
weren't the best at the moment. Helping each other is what friends
were for, right? Distracted by Emerald, he missed the sight of
Remus.
Audax recognised these mages, the master of light magic and the
master of anima magic. Supposedly, these two knew every spell in
their branch, similarly to Thea. If these two were loyalists...
what could happen to the republicans? He winced, not knowing what
to say.
Well shoot. Clamor would probably get exposed as a republican
somehow, with all these powerful magicians... Clamor had similar
thoughts as Audax about what the mages of each side could do. He
stayed silent, but for different reasons.
Fortem + Mordred
"Do you think you could ask Dainn if you could stay over? Or your
parents? I know it's wishful thinking but...it wouldn't hurt to
try...right?" Emerald looked at Fortem hopefully. He looked at
Mordred as well.
Winter
Remus was silent but he did approached Winter. He had a friendly
smile, despite the situation. His gaze did indicate that he didn't
want to stay out for too long either Remus could be talked to!
Xatina sighed. "I just wish there was a way to make them see that
the king has given so much peace under his reign. But I suppose if
this the way to do it.." Xatina may have a firey personality, and a
strong passion for Loyalisim, but she hated the fighting. It broke
her heart, if she was being honest. Still, she wasn't a Nuteral. If
this was what had to be done, it was what had to be done.
Fortem was honestly surprised that none of the speakers had been
attacked by someone in the crowd, yet. Both were important members
of the other side... He was on high alert in case that did end up
happening.
Winter cautiously went to meet the illusion Pokemon. "Remus...?" He
greeted nervously, seeing the other creature's expression. It would
be good to get a good discussion in, albeit brief, but still. He
wanted to try, he seemed friendly enough
Fortem
"I think we should leave before things get bad huh?" Emerald said
quietly. He had sensed that the debate was getting heated
Xatina + Audax + Clamor
"Again...I think there are some that hold bitterness towards the
kingdom. After all, no land is perfect, there's bound to be
problems. I don't agree with revolution but...it's plausible for
others." Thea made sure to choose her words very carefully. Both
Ryn and Conall would nod in response with Thea's statement.
Winter
Remus turned and smiled as he saw Winter. "Ah, it's sir Winter!"
Remus grinned, seemingly regaining some of his old self back when
he saw him. "I heard that the winter friend has started to get some
fame and fortune behind his back. Be sure to share it with us, eh
eh?" He playfully nudged Winter, in jest. Some of his playfulness
was still there.
All
It seems as though now Harringale and Miranda were now facing each
other instead of addressing the audience...the debate was getting
heated...some of the audience took that as their cue to leave...
Mordred looked blankly at Fortem, then at Emerald, and nodded. “You
can come to mine, if you would like,” She looked worriedly towards
the arguing, then turned her ears away from it. “It’s not too far
from here and I’ll keep you fed. I’ve got an apple and blackberry
pie that won’t eat itself, y’know.” She added playfully, one paw
lifted as she prepared to leave.
Veil, however, stayed. He was thoroughly enjoying the arguing
between the politicians, in his own half-sadistic and
half-unworriedness, and though he didn’t look their way, he was
certainly listening to every syllable; the orange Drizzile’s tail
flicked at every harsh remark or spitting insult, however.
Xatina nodded. "I suppose.." She was about to say more and realized
that some people were leaving. "This is interesting..is the
argument over?" But as some of the taller Pokemon moved, she
realized what was going on. The argument was getting heated. "I
just hope it doesn't come to battling." That would definitely be a
problem. "Should we just leave them be, or should someone step in?
All of Xatina's insticnts were screaming at her at once, but her
common sense ruled over, and she decided to stay put unless told
otherwise.
"I think it's a good idea to leave," Fortem pitched in, a little
late. "I might stay a minute or two longer though..." It was clear
to see why. Though things were getting a little louder, both sides
were making interesting points. Besides, Fortem was a knight. He
had training to deescalate situations like this and help pokemon
that could be caught in the crossfire. Though he might need to
fight against fellow loyalists, Fortem thought that it was worth
it.
Clamor awkwardly tried to leave. There wasn't much to gain, and it
would be even more awkward speaking with his board to these
possible loyalists, though they seemed to be leaning neutral.
Fortem + Audax + Clamor
“Hopefully I’ll get to see you later!” Emerald gave Fortem a hug
before he scampered off with Mordred, repeating that he’ll make a
comfy bubble for her
There were both knights and rebels on standby...this was not
looking too promising
Xatina nodded. "I think I'll go back to the park now.." She nodded
once. "Thanks for the talk." Then, Xatina scampered off in the
direction of the park. This event had given her a lot to think
about, and she intended to. But she also wanted to get away from
the heated, er, discussion going on before things got bad.
Fortem waved goodbye with a flick of his tail, and scanned the
crowd. Many pokemon seemed to be wearing accessories with what
seemed to be the makings of a simplified version of the royal
crest, as well as some with a new symbol: most likely that of the
rebels. He would do his best to get the neutrals and pokemon who
didn't want to battle out of the fighting if he could. Taking some
deep breaths, he braced for the storm.
Audax hurried over to the balcony once more at the sound of
pokemon, and watched worriedly as the rebels and loyalists down at
the nearby plaza were getting louder and louder... he gulped, not
seeing that there was much he could do to help.
Clamor padded into the fray of shouting pokemon. In the crowd, he
spotted many familliar rebels that he's worked with before. He
unsheathed his claws; if things got more intense, his intentions
were clear.
Everyone at the
Plaza
Unfortunately it was inevitable...though neither Harringale or
Miranda initiated or called an attack...soon, a knight and rebel
started fighting. It was unclear who took the first shot...but
regardless, it was smart for the people that moved away early. It
wasn’t a bloody battle, but various pokemon from each side were
getting beat up.
