"There's that dramatic tongue of yours." Iteral raises her clock in return. "If "the hand of death" does not grab you by the throat and strangle you on their way to hell... let's hang some time. Literally." She hits the clock and disappears in the chime of a grandfather's clock, reappearing... in Wildana. Well, what is left of it.

"... what the..."

...

Some time later, she was on her way out of Wildana. In fact, she left it early, it was just hard to distinguish what kind of rubble and debris belongs to what nation. She wanders... and soon was in a barren wasteland, void of life. A quick glimpse on the clock does confirm though, this is where her other self went. Odd...

A loud hiss, then roar erupted from the heavy dust. A large paw swiped at Iteral, attempting to knock her down. "You," The creature spoke, "What are you doing here? Come back to be eaten?"

Iteral yelps and, although the swipe seemed to have connected, the clockmaker reappeared where she was three seconds ago, panting heavily. "Woah, woah! I-eh, again?! Wrong me, wrong me!" She shouts, waving her arms around.

It roared again and charged a beam in its mouth, shooting it at her. It definitely wasn't going to listen to reason in the state it was in. "Leave, now!"

Iteral yelps, trying to move around again and dodging the beam, another close call. "Oh damnit me, what did you do this time..." She pants and starts running around, her bag dropping gears and clocks in her path.

Cath growled and watched Iteral intently. "Why did you come back? You'd know well to stay away, unless you're here to return what you helped steal."

"Oh damn, she does not know. Wait. But... hm." Iteral clears her throat. "I... am not her, funnily enough. I'm... somewhat of a twin sister. More or less." She sighs. "What, she stole something? Nono, I don't have it! S-Sorry!" She steps forward, as she formed a circle of clocks and erects a barrier of her own around the creature.

Cath stopped suddenly and growled lowly. "State your purpose, then. What is it you want here? I have nothing to offer you accept a quick death." It spoke through clenched teeth, not calming down anytime soon.

"Look. I... don't know what you saw in her or whatever. I just wanna know what she did to make you this mad... and what way they went." Iteral pants heavily, still on guard. Her barrier was strong but she didn't like to take any chances.

"That little wretch stole my power orb and I want it back! If you don't want to die, I suggest getting it back for me!" Cath hissed again and pointed with a claw in the direction they went. "And I do hope you hurry, or I'll find you and kill you myself."

"I, eh..." Iteral gives a little nod, she was still in the dark regarding what the group's been up to but... "... can you tell me about the orb and who went with me? I'm not really the trusting type, you see..."

"I don't care who you went with, they were all food to me, anyway. It's a blue orb, able to be carried in your hands, like a crystal ball. That's all I'm telling you, now go before I try to eat you again." Cath walked a short distance away and sat, looking out through the dust storm.

Iteral's response was delayed, she was trying to keep her own anger in check. But after that bit, she just nods. "Alright. Good luck to you." With that, she flies off, towards... Lumina now.

Selaphiel looked out of one of the windows. "Look, everyone. More rain. The gas is settling faster." She motioned outside. "We'll be good to continue in a few hours. Until then, we should go over a plan to defeat Legion."

Isla Greer

"Lonely... huh?"

Isla watched the soldiers march down the empty streets. One soldier stopped by a window. A child was peering through it. The soldier turned to him, and the child's mother quickly drew the curtains.

Lonely, perhaps in the sense that everyone is empty here. Nobody here yells or cries or even smiles, outside of their inner circle. Those things have been wiped from us. There is no friendship, no love, only the knowledge that one day, that little child in the window will betray you and join those soldiers. If that is loneliness, then yes, Snavians are lonely.

"I suppose that's a way you could look at it. Shall we?" Isla abruptly offered her an arm, eager to get away from the street corner and the thoughts that came with it.

"Oh, yes, thank you." She hooked her own arm with Isla's and nodded. She couldn't help but shrink at the peoples' gazes, after all, she had failed them as a protector and guardian. She hated it. She wanted to scream at herself for being so vulnerable.

Isla Greer

As the two walked down the streets, Isla studied the alleyways. The way they were shaped, the way the darkness receded. She had no doubt that people lurked in them, watching them.

The occasional ripple in the stream of black set her nerves on edge. Assassins, traitors, thieves of the worst kind- who lurked in the trenches of Snavian society?

People I'm going to kill. Cull.

They weren't any more Snavian than she was Legion.

Something crunched underneath her foot. Isla stopped in her tracks.

Aret stopped as soon as Isla did. She noticed how far away she seemed, mentally. "Is everything alright? Why'd we stop?" She looked up at her with big eyes, clear and always teary, it seemed.

Isla Greer

Isla didn't answer her.

Carefully, she leaned down, easing her boot off of it. A coin- no, a medallion. The picture was something she'd long since forgotten- an ancient symbol in Snavian history.

The rebellion had started.

She smiled. She drove her foot into it and blue flames burst to life, igniting the ground. . She gave it a kick for good measure, and the shards embedded themselves in the wall. A passing girl yelped and tore off, narrowly avoiding a blast of Isla's magic.

"Cowards! Cowards and traitors!" she spat. "Is this how they repay me?" She whipped on the Saint, unable to help the fury burning in her chest. "We're going. Now."

She pushed out a wave of magic, and the fabric of reality shifted, the castle rippling into view. She stormed inside, still holding onto the Saint, unable to see anything through the fury that blurred her vision.

"O-okay-" She tried to keep up, as her smaller frame didn't allow her to move as fast as Isla. "Isla? What's wrong? Hey-" If she angered her any more, the same thing would happen with her as Legion. Aret would be beat. So she did as ordered and kept a pace.
