Even though she wasn't expecting an invitation, the rejection was oddly cutting. Dakota doesn't take it to heart though. The angelic-looking girl had a point, why join a cause she didn't exactly have an interest in? So this group is facing the Legion huh? I guess there are people crazy enough to face them.

She nods dismissively at Lean's words and turns towards Wildana. She wasn't exactly interested in joining the troops that resided in that kingdom. All she cared about was meeting with her client and enjoying her small vacation.

She couldn't help but feel envious of this group. They had a cause, a purpose, something to fight for. What did she have?

A few months of relaxation, that's what! Dakota thinks to herself with a bemused smile. She intended to enjoy it, nothing would stop her! But an uncanny sense of regret hits Dakota with each departing step.

Peter looked Erik up and down. "Wait, you're not part of Legion... yet you took down the guards anyways? Hm." He folded his arms. Sounds like someone he knows. "Well then, you could just leave all of this behind and pray that Wildana authorities don't find you. Or, y'know, join Legion or something."

Yue looked to Sela and then to Dakota before waving slowly at her. "It was nice to meet you, Miss." He followed after Sela, looking around the ruins. "Miss Sela, could I ask what we're doing here?"

"There's something important I need here." She answered vaguely, looking around the halls filled with debris. "Just tell me if anything seems out of place to you."

---------------------

Aret nodded at the verbal gratitude, though she let the thought overwhelm her for a moment. She wanted to see what his warning was about. It was certainly very tempting. "Let's sit down for a while- until we're called on again."

he nodded, smiling.

"Yeah!"

He seemed much more cheerful now.

"Just... don't ask too much, okay? It's important, taht's all you need to know."

"Alright, Miss. I'll get right onto that." He nodded and scurried off. He poked around the Ruins, using Light to life any fallen debris so he could see better. So far, he'd found nothing.

Lean scratches her head, looking around as well. "To be honest, this entire place seems out of place. A barren wasteland amidst a thunderstorm. Debris that's unlike a storm or an attack... and more like a bomb... you know?"

"My guess is that people were here after it became... You know, like this." She kicked up the grey sand under her. "This sand and the constant storms mean that something was taken from the Saint Deity. Physically."

-------------------

"Kendo..." She buried her face in the fabric of his shirt, then looked up at him. "Can you tell me a story? Something you've experienced?"

"... hm..."

He looked up at the sky, racking through his thoughts. He nodded.

"So, once upon a time, there was an enslaved land. I was... what, a thousand years, at that point? I had been aimlessly traveling for years, fighting, traveling, and seeing the worlds through my many lives."

He tugged at the necklace around his neck, absently.

"At this point, I was working for the oppressors. Crazy, I know. Then... I met a few special people. I guess you could call them... a family?"

He turned over the necklace, the light from the sky revealing a small inscription on the golden star, reading: "A token to keep us in your memory." He smiled wistfully, as he looked over the necklace. He mumbled under his breath.

"... I miss them... I never even met them myself, but I miss them..."

"Hm, something taken from her... I don't remember any depictions of her having any belongings. Well, except clothes but I think that outcome would be worse... clipped wings? Torn arms?" Lean said, trying to make sure only Selaphiel could hear her.

Lilith squeaks in surprise, having been standing a little too close to Iteral. She takes out her cloth wings and stares at them, looking terrified. “Wings…?!?!?” She whisper-yells to Iteral, holding them out, in partia bewilderment and fear.

"Clipped wouldn't do this. They would have to have cut her wings from her main body." Selaphiel huffed, mumbling something under her breath. She seemed to be very irritable now.

-------------------

"That's so sad..." She looked at the inscription on his necklace. "What are their names? Do you know at all? Or is it too distant of a memory?"

"... Mona Aelius was the head of the family, and my best friend. Or, his best friend. I know their names... but I can only vaguely remember their personalities."

He frowned.

"I remember one thing for certain. It was a happy, peaceful time."

He flipped open the book, to a spot with neat handwriting and immaculate sketches.

"Right here."

Lean notices the irritability and wanted to reach out but instead, she just makes a small nod. "Miss Selaphiel? We will deliver justice from those who did that. I can assure you, they will pay." Her voice was a lot more fierce and determined, she was sure.

---

Strangely enough, when Kendo flipped to a random page of Iteral, for a few seconds, it seemed like she appeared in her typical clock chime. But just as quickly, she disappeared.

"Is that her?" She looked at the sketch. "Mona? That's a nice name. And she's very pretty... Almost familiar." She stared at the book page, thinking.

---------------------

"Tch, you wouldn't understand." She rolled her eyes and walked away, continuing to search for the artifact she needed.

"I don't need to understand to know it's bad." Lean moves around out of sight, hitting her foot on something. "Woah, I got something!" She uncovers it from the dust and looks at the item in confusion

"You have? Great!!" Yue sprinted over, sliding in the sand a bit before standing up properly. "What is it?" He craned his neck over Lean's shoulder, jumping a bit to see it.

"I... can't make out what it is. Miss Selaphiel, what is it?" Lean takes a step back, seeing Yue and taking the step around, putting a hand on Yue to push him back ever so slightly. "Let's give some space."

"Ah, yes. Sorry about that." He stopped jumping, walking backwards a bit before stopping. He poked his foot into the sand. Strange, he wondered how it felt. It felt soft under his shoes, but it looked grainy. Yue had the sudden urge to run his hand through the sand. ~~Been traveling in deserts and hasn't experienced sand smh~~

Erik looks at them confused.."Wait. So that means...I helped the bad guys?" He makes a few steps back looking around with fear and guilt.
"I thought im helping the good ones defeating the bad ones. This world is really weird and confusing. Maybe I shouldn't leave my home". He lowers his ears

He looked down at the page. Next to the drawing was a long, LONG rant about how much he hated someone named... Ambrose? He sighed.
