Days seemed to pass to Emiya, the carriage ride jolted him in the box up and down up and down. It didn't help with how cramped the box already was. Soon, he would be able to find himself on the waves, thrown about as he could see and smell seawater begin to leak into the box.

It wasn't a substantial amount of sea water. And while Emiya wasn't sure what exactly the box was made of, if he had really been thrown in the sea the leaking would be far worse and the box would have been crushed by the pressure. It was probably seaspray. Probably.

The waves eventually stopped and Emiya felt he was on a carriage once more moving this time on much more paved roads. Another day of it passed. The cart hadn't stopped since it had begun. The smell was getting worse inside the box. Seawater didn't mix well. Before it came to a stop. Suddenly something rapped on the top of the box. "Still alive in there?"

"Correct answer, you may come out now." she stepped back and turned around before shouting, "Honour Guard! Standby at ready!" The Eclipse above blocked out most of the light but still twenty figures in silver armour holding lances as long as they were tall lined the side of the small path through the lush gardens towards the inner gates. Looking even above, Emiya found himself face to face with a disturbingly familiar sight. A towering pillar of bronze and juttering gothic stone that spiraled into the air, gargoyles staring down at him with their watchful gazes and jaws wide open. It's massive clockface showed the time to the entire landscape, it's hands perpetually stopped one minute to midnight. (edited)

Avatar
TheInsanityThatLiesOutside 2022-08-09 1:08 PM
The anti-magic field was still in effect. But Emiya could sense an extensive territory that had been created over a massive area. The Clock Tower didn't stand alone but instead all around him in distant lights he could see a surrounding city. It was not quite medieval as many of the buildings had been renovated, their crumbling wooden exteriors replaced by lavish facades of marble and tiling. And furthermore they were of Islamic architecture or a hybridization of it with the rampant gothic styles that ran through. Large planes stained glass windows, pointed arches, rib vaults, and flying buttresses were intermixed with minarets, muqarnas, arabesque, and the charistic onion/pointed domes. If Emiya didn't know any better he would have guessed he was somewhere that was a mix of Old Rome and Baghdad.

He'll be getting out of the Box either way. Of course, leaving behind his Suitcase of Grenades, Calico and Contender. All of which he'll just be able to re-summon later should he need it. He takes a quick scan of the People around him. Even in a situation like this, he's got to be aware of what's going on around him.

Twenty guards. Clad in silver armour from head to toe with long lances. Issue was that they were each easily two and a half meters tall towering over the assassin. They were all staring at him. Ready for a single wrong move to make. And it wasn't just that as well. He spotted a figure shrouded in shadow above sitting on a gargoyle, a something long a thin in both its hands that it was bracing with its shoulder. The garden itself was about a 100 feet square with cloisters on each side next to walls about 15 feet tall. There were trees and waterfeatures in this garden. And given the fact there was an eclipse above, plently of shadows that the bonfires casted. There was an additional gate behind him that he must have come through in the box. It was braced with steel and runes that glowed.

Heather stood by the main doors and pushed it open. Emiya found himself in a wide open entrance hall with a staircase that curved upwards in ivory railings. Above, it seemed to stretch on forever, ten stories at least with banisters and railings on each floor until it reached the roof where a skylight showed the eclipse, never moving and ever hanging over the city like a dark eye that watched all. Gaslit lamps lit the massive interior hall and on a nearby table next to the stairwell a gramophone was playing some soft tune orchestrated by a flute and stringed instrument, the music floating hauntingly through the massively tall space. There was no one here, save for the man sitting at the bottom of the stairs listening to the gramophone.

"It is strange, is not not?" the man spoke in a foreign accent that to Emiya suggested was from the sub-saharan African regions, near the west coast probably. The man was dressed in ridiculously fine silk, so soft that even Emiya could see it from this distant the way it curved and stuck to highlight his sturdy shoulders and slender arms. It's white contrasted well against his darker skin with vivid eyes that shone in multicolour in this light like emeralds mined from the deepest depths. On his ears he wore heavy earings studded with gems and diamonds that sparkled. His wrists were heavy with golden rings that clinked slightly as he adjusted the volume the the gramophone to be slightly softer so he could speak. "One who is so obsessed with the finest details, so obsessed with reaching perfection that they mull over every aspect, is one is most often misses the most important things.

The Servant would follow him slowly up the stairs as Emiya walked up the doors. They would open by themselves. In front of him was a short corridor with oak floors and walls before it expanded out into a massive room with a wrought iron dome roof that opened up slightly to allow a telescope of considerable size to peak outwards, staring directly into the heart of the abyss. The rest of the room were dominated by the typical Magus' equipment, scrolls and ink-pens laying about with the walls covered in bookshelves filled with dusting tomes. There several men and women in dark blue robes and suits with golden accents. They all had white hair and crimson eyes, each having their skin be as pale as paper as they seemed to work tirelessly to collect the data coming in from the telescope and obeying the commands of a man standing beneath the viewport of the instrument. The man himself was richly dressed in stark yellow robes like the Servant Emiya had met but with little jewelry. His gloved hands held a staff of pure gold with the adornment of an eagle grasping a emerald orb beneath its claws. His back was to Emiya as he feverishly spoke with a scribe who was dotting down something he was saying. (edited)

The man turned around and showed his face. Or rather his 'face,' if it could be called one. A mask of impassive gold that attempted to portray as much humanity as possible only to utterly display the opposite as it stared at Emiya with neither curiosity nor anger at this seeming interruption. He raised his hands and his retainers quickly filed away through other doors. In less then a few seconds, it was as if there was no-one here at all. Just the three of them. EMIYA of course, would know this man from his memories of the Clock Tower. This man had been a significant figure within the Clock Tower for the past hundred years until his ascendancy to Grand:Crown through a mixture of political intrigue and a mastery in Alchemy. Issue was the last time Emiya could recall hearing about him was in the 1990s... His staff struck the ground several times as Sourd marched forward through the empty room towards Emiya, stopping just a few steps before him. "So," his voice was smooth and deep, practiced over years of oration with students, "You are Assassin of Chaldea. I am thankful that you have made this long journey with great discomfort and expense. I will not apologise for I do not apologise for no reason. Still, you are here and that is what matters." "My offer is simple.

Soon the two of them would arrive at the gatehouse. It was void of trade and of citizens through the renovated streets of London which betrayed neither trash nor vermin with entirely new facades built. The gatehouse itself was more of a checkpoint towards the lesser built parts of the city with a slight barricade like wall with a tall wooden door that swung out and in. Guards in their black and gold armour had cordoned off the area In front of the gate was something covered by a sheet of silk. The first thing Emiya noticed here was that the smell of burnt blood was almost overpowering.

The corpse was a young man that hadn't even reached twenty yet. His skin and rough and brown with his hair turning into a shock of white. But it was incomplete he could tell, his skin was lighter in too many places for this to be natural. There was a hole in the center of his chest over his heart which was terribly burnt with black viens spreading out from the strike. On closer inspection, Emiya could tell the magic circuits weren't just stripped, they had been overcharged to the extent they had burnt themselves clean through to the extend they had destroyed parts of the corpses' body. It was not too different from how Origin Bullets worked. And on his shoulder carved in quickly with a knife there was a sigil of a circle with two parrell lines running through it.

An very old sigil. That of the Celtic cults before the advent of Rome and later Christianity would crush them. The few Celtic magi left in his time were typically druids, Celtic priests with a deep relationship with forests and monuments. They held a special position in the political machinations of Celtic society.

"..Druids." He has to wonder.. What are Druids doing assassinating Mages? Were they planning to evaporate all the Nature that was left or something..? In his experience, they're usually peaceful.. Oh well.

Emiya would suddenly notice that the hooded figure wasn't alone. Several more had appeared in the crowd all around him dressed in the same dark brown cloak staring at him with pinpricks of sickly yellow light under their eyes. The Guards didn't seem to notice them at all. One of them had openly drawn a sickle and nobody responded.

"What?" she turned around towards Emiya before looking in the direction, "Did you see something?" As they came closer Emiya could feel the mana burning off them in a almost metal like smell as he could see sweat trickling down their exposed skin as they came closer and closer to the line of guards. They had now all drawn small daggers or sickles yet the Guards didn't seem to notice.

A creature can use a weapon attack to knock a weapon or another item from a target’s grasp. The attacker makes an attack roll contested by the target’s Strength (Athletics) check or Dexterity (Acrobatics) check. If the attacker wins the contest, the attack causes no damage or other ill effect, but the defender drops the item. The attacker has disadvantage on its attack roll if the target is holding the item with two or more hands. The target has advantage on its ability check if it is larger than the attacking creature, or disadvantage if it is smaller.

Despite blood spurting out of his neck in a fountain, the cloaked man still stood upright. His eyes glowed red as he stared at EMIYA. People all around the pair were screaming in terror as they were soaked. The two guards were frozen in shock at the sudden move while Heather was shouting orders, already having drawn her sword and running forward. "Six of them!" she shouted, finally seeing past the illusion.

Demoralize. When you do so your opponent must make an opposed Charisma (Intimidation) against you. If you win, the target becomes Frightened of you. This effect lasts 1 minute. The target may use an action to try and shake off this effect, allowing them to make an opposed Charisma (Intimidation) check against you once again to end it early.

M1 casts Disintegrate!
Meta
DC: 21 DEX Save Damage: 10d6 (4, 4, 2, 4, 2, 4, 6, 3, 6, 3) + 40 [magical force] = 78
Effect
A thin green ray springs from your pointing finger to a target that you can see within range. The target can be a creature, an object, or a creation of magical force, such as the wall created by wall of force. A creature targeted by this spell must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the target takes 10d6 + 40 force damage. The target is disintegrated if this damage leaves it with 0 hit points. A disintegrated creature and everything it is wearing and carrying, except magic items, are reduced to a pile of fine gray dust. The creature can be restored to life only by means of a true resurrection or a wish spell. This spell automatically disintegrates a Large or smaller nonmagical object or a creation of magical force. If the target is a Huge or larger object or creation of force, this spell disintegrates a 10-foot- cube portion of it. A magic item is unaffected by this spell.

a Magus, a god? "You're all the same." Reacting with his own enhanced speeds- The Magus Killer cuts into him before the spell is even able to be cast. Phantasm Punishment ruining the Mages Circuits, the Spell fizzles out.. and the Mage is slain soon after. But there are more enemies left. It's going to be a bit difficult to keep one alive, though.

Once more at the worst possible moment a panicking woman with her child grapsed at her arm suddenly ran past Emiya as he stabbed. Only some sort of divine luck made sure she turned around at the last moment and it only grazed her cheek, leaving a light cut.

The next time you hit a creature with a melee weapon attack during this spell's duration, your weapon pierces both body and mind, and the attack deals an extra 4d6 psychic damage to the target. The target must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, it has disadvantage on attack rolls and ability checks, and can't take reactions, until the end of its next turn.

The winding streets were confusing to saw the least. It was too much of a reminder of the forest where all the trees and landscape blended into the same blur. Everyday men and women going about their lives suddenly would jump to the side as Heather and Emiya would race between them towards the location of the cultists. Heather would have to shout several times for others to move out their way. In front of them the scene of commotions that had past. Several stalls and people had been knocked over and they all pointed in the same direction Emiya could sense the cultist. There was blood on the ground. A wounded animal. Eventually the pair of them would reach a dead end alley, a building on all three sides each easily fifteen feet tall. In the alley at the very end of which was a pile of steaming hot trash that had been thrown from an upper story window. The blood trail ended here. The singal was underground and moving fast.

Several feet down. Right into something that squelched and went up to his ankles. It was dark down here but that was no issue for him. The sewer down here was a long drainage pipe from old roman times. Graffiti from almost a thousand years ago were still on the walls. It had long ceased to be part of the central system but still water leaked through the clay brick walls and trash found their way down from the streets. About fifty feet in front of Emiya was a figure writhing in pain, leaning on the wall for support.

"D-d-damn it," it rose up and began limping slowly down the sewer. Ahead there was a small wrought iron gate in the wall of the tunnel where a small lantern hung on a hook next to it. He took a key from his robe and opened the lock, stepping through the begining to close the gate.

Wounded and half-dead, the Cultist just dropped. Ahead the corridor wound went down a staircase for another thirty feet Behind him, Emiya heard the splash and Heather voice as she walked up, "It's worse than I could ever have believed," she looked down at the knocked out Cultist, "This must be the old Roman tombs. The Patriarch had been looking into excavating this area for artifacts from the Age of Gods but we moved closer to where the Clock Tower is now after we found... well whatever it is under the tower. The Patriach has ordered a vial of secrecy over whatever is going down there."

"Mhm." He'll take whatever keys he can find on the Cultists body. "There's bound to be more around." After looting the Cultist, he'll go right ahead and finish them. They already have one captured, and it'd be a hassle if this one woke up and caused issues later. "I'm going ahead." and so the Assassin once more turned Invisible. Going on ahead. With his Prescience Concealed, his Body rendered Invisible and unable to make any sounds with his Steps.. He's not worried about being found.

TheInsanityThatLiesOutside 2022-08-20 1:06 AM
"I'll stay back but first sound of trouble and I'll come in as support," she nodded as he turned invisible before her very eyes, "Never get used to that." The cultist had a chain of keys on him with two more not including the one already used. Descending down the staircase Emiya would hear a multitude of voices. How many he couldn't exactly count at the moment. He first entered a chamber with another door at the opposite end where the voices were coming from. This chamber was small, fifty feet from each wall to wall, but was packed full of wooden barrels each with a red stripe painted onto the side. Slumped against one of these barrels was a man in simple armour with a spear against his side, but was snoring loudly with his arms crossed.

Within the barrel was what looked like fine black sand even if it reeked strongly of something that smelled like urine. EMIYA would know would this was. Some sort of primitive gunpowder. And given the fact that this room was packed full of barrels, that was quite a bit of fire powder.

Now he recalled the London he lived in. Not really the London of 1300s But this London was built eerily similar to his version as well.

And if he recalled briefly there was a certain Magus from his time which would be imprisoned at this period, even over 800 years before. A certain Magus named Judias of Athens which had survived for so many years by creating perfect copies of himself in the minds of those he could possess and control like puppets, so that he would never truly die. Disturbingly similar to what Touko would do. If anything, he would be long before her. So right now he would be in some chamber above, waiting. Emiya approaching the door would continue to hear the voices muffled from behind it. But it was hard to at the moment...

"We have everything in place." "I'm still not sure about it boss." "Still not sure?! Still not sure?" the voice raised. "We've lost about half the cell we infiltrated the city with. Taking down that Magus in order to lure the Captain out was costly enough. And the fact we haven't heard from them back means they failed. So this has to work or we'll be rooted out like rats and nothing we have done will be of consequence." "But still, boss, that man above is the Highest Heretic declared bearing a Sealing Designation. The Patriarch is a heretic for not already burning that blasphemer but setting him free?" "It's what she ordered. We can't refused a Clock-God, hallowed is her name." "Hallowed is her name," came the following chants. Emiya counted at least 8 and judging from the echoes in a very tight room. "Get to work. We'll light to the fuse to the flash-powder in a minute."

Kiritsugu EMIYA(Assassin) casts Swift Quiver!
Description
You transmute your quiver so it produces an endless supply of nonmagical ammunition, which seems to leap into your hand when you reach for it. On each of your turns until the spell ends, you can use a bonus action to make two attacks with a weapon that uses ammunition from the quiver. Each time you make such a ranged attack, your quiver magically replaces the piece of ammunition you used with a similar piece of nonmagical ammunition. Any pieces of ammunition created by this spell disintegrate when the spell ends. If the quiver leaves your possession, the spell ends.

Shadow projectile. You weave illusion magic into your projectile, causing it to occlude your foe's vision with shadows. The creature hit by the projectile takes an extra 2d6 psychic damage, and it must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or be unable to see anything farther than 5 feet away until the start of your next turn. The psychic damage increases to 4d6 when you reach Rank B.

Rank D: You know how to make your enemies hurt. When you roll a critical hit with a weapon designated as your Torture Tool you may force the enemy to make a DC (8 + Wisdom Modifier + Proficiency Bonus) Intelligence Saving Throw or become Incapacitated until the start of your next turn. You may only use this effect three times per long rest.

London. Soon to be the Hub of an Empire which would forever leave its mark on the world from its domination on every single continent. That great cesspool into which all the loungers and idlers of the Empire are irresistibly drained. But that glory from the future is now made manifest, now. No longer is London some backwater trading point, filled with old roman buildings and rotting structures made by peasants on the verge of collaspe. No. Now it is a bustling city, the center of the Lord-Patriarchs' Empire within an Empire. A strange mixture of Islamic and Victorian architecture clash together as sturdy buildings rise alongside clean paved streets. The streets are filled with traders and pilgrims that have come from all over the isle to pray to the ascendant Patriarch and hope that he may bless them with health and of gold. They will never see him. For he has occupied himself within the Clock Tower. A towering pillar of bronze and juttering gothic stone that spiraled into the air, gargoyles staring down at him with their watchful gazes and jaws wide open shooting upwards to seemingly lunatic heights. It's massive Clockface showed the time to the entire landscape, it's hands perpetually stopped one minute to midnight. All around it replicated in the mish-mash of Gothic and late Victorian is a massive wing that extends outwards housing no doubt the vast research institutes the association is known for. The rayshift here would bring a brief feeling of nausea and the sudden oncoming rush for Taigong that a territory encompassed them all. They were allowed to be able to rayshift in the first place. The group would find themselves in a lush garden surrounded by low walls. Trees and the sound of waterworks behind the bushes to their left. They themselves were in a small opening between the shrubbery and trees that had recently been cleared with open dirt. A single small gold nugget sat in the middle of this circle.

It's white contrasted well against his darker skin with vivid eyes that shone in multicolour in this light like emeralds mined from the deepest depths. On his ears he wore heavy earings studded with gems and diamonds that sparkled. His wrists were heavy with golden rings that clinked slightly as he adjusted the volume the the gramophone to be slightly softer so he could speak. "For as I have created a city from nothing more then the sands of the desert I too have created this monument to my Master. All I touch shall be blessed with Gold if I see fit." he rose his hands up, loose sleeves dropping from it, "You must be all of Chaldea.

As they approached the tower itself suddenly Taigon and Monta would spot a figure up on the very rooftops, amongst the gargoyles with his cloak flying in the half-light. It was a figure of shadow holding something very long with both its hands that was braced against its shoulders. It watched the group as they approached. At the gate there were a pair of guards. These two were abnormally tall, two and a half meters easily, and made lean. They were both clad in pure silver each holding a lance as long as they were tall and in their free hand a shield. Their tall helmets strangely possessed no holes for visions and were utterly featureless save for plumes of feathers at the very top.

Theano didn't need eyes to know they were well-trained. The fact there were only two of them said enough. The Servant would snap his fingers and the two guards would open heavy wrought iron doors. Monta right at that second could tell from the very sound they made they were alchemical reinforced beyond any natural metals. The entire citadel would shatter before those doors did. Above, it seemed to stretch on forever, ten stories at least with banisters and railings on each floor until it reached the roof where a skylight showed the eclipse, never moving and ever hanging over the city like a dark eye that watched all. Gaslit lamps lit the massive interior hall and on a nearby table next to the stairwell a gramophone was playing some soft tune orchestrated by a flute and stringed instrument, the music floating hauntingly through the massively tall space.

The doors opened into an elevator. An elevator straight from the 20s it seemed. Upon taking it, they would feel like they were ripped upwards at high speed. Almost supersonic speeds. Clearly modified. If Taigong could guess from the time they spent traveling upwards they were at least 900 feet up. The doors would open. A large metal dome made up the ceiling of the observatory at the very top of the Clock Tower itself. There were several openings in the floor with railings around that revealed the dizzying heights they had traveled upwards but also the floors upon floors of research and offices populated by seemingly hundreds of people. Within this observatory, between the typical Magus' equipment, scrolls and ink-pens laying about with the walls covered in bookshelves filled with dusting tomes that didn't fit this time period was a massive telescope aimed straight at the eclipse over the landscape. A man stood looking through the viewport. The man himself was richly dressed in stark yellow robes like the Servant they had met but with little jewelry. His gloved hands held a staff of pure gold with the adornment of an eagle grasping a emerald orb beneath its claws.

Or would you prefer another title? You know who we are, and what we have come for. If you allow me, I want to say I like what you have done with the place, on what aesthetics mean." However, the principles of Feng Shui rarely meshed well with the innate style of western arquitecture. And truth be told, he did prefer simplicity to complexity sometimes. They were now in front of a Lord, and one with godlike capabilities. Taigong was not concerned though. After all, kings vested in gold will be bested by kings vested in silver.

"Friendship is more valuable than gold," the Lord said in a deep brass-like voice, "Or so they tell me..."

But I am sure you life is no doubt of more worth. Somehow." "However, make no doubt, Bodyguard. While within these grounds you shall cause no issues. I may have no quarrel with Chaldea but with what I offer, there is little doubt that you will be rendered something easily cast off in comparison."

It is... pretentious to say the least, even by Magus standards. That is is why I would be rather referred to as Patriarch. It is more muted and more appropriate then such a lofty name that damnable thing gave us. It is not something I have earned yet and I do not enjoy easy hand-outs." "And I am as interested in preserving humanity as much as the rest of you. If not for humanity then what is the point of my work? Where are my fellow colleagues? Where are the peers that my papers and works are published to and granted great praise? It would truly become a most boring world void of purpose. The alliance with the Demon Pillar and his detestable minions is only a brief one because I have found someone more worthy." Sourd sat in the chair at the viewport, leaning back and interlocking his fingers together. "As for purchase allow me to elaborate further, I simply desire to be a major stakeholder. Perhaps even the controlling stakeholder. Chaldea is somewhat lacking in the more vital information and resources within this singularity, as well as the opportunity to be involved in a plan that will end this entire mess once and for all. I can provide all of that. After all, as a Stakeholder while I do reap the profits, it is also in my best interests to ensure my investment does not fall through."

The girl shook her head, her gaze fixating upon the man before speaking. "Yet the continuity of human history is at stake if we are to take your offer and save you from that fate. Once you're out of the frying pan, there is nothing to stop you from immediately turning against us and trying to use your illegitimately gained power and very fact you shouldn't exist in our timeline to cause a mess and potentially cause another singularity.

"And what power would I have once I leave this place?" he gestured to the Observatory, "It is not as if I can simply just take all of this with me I do hope you realize. Then again it seems that the study I mentioned before may have to be larger given your recent comments. What use is the political power I have here when I depart? What inate powers I do have, I have gained legitimately." He rose from his seat, his voice raising as he grasped his staff, "I was already a master of the Alchemical and Transmutational arts before I was so rudely ripped from my study and placed here by a abomination that believes that he can control me. I have no need to create my own singularity just as a cheap way to expand my own power. I am Nazaire Sourd, greatest of Magus in these ages and Grand:Crown through my own talents, and I will not stoop that low to achieve what I have been seeking for my entire life." "Do not dare to even assume such a thing of me. I am not like those Magus that have decided to ally with this Demon Pillar to make up for their own flaws in their metal." he spat almost in what seemed like barely restrained anger. Sourd took a deep breath before speaking to Monta, his voice was calm, as if what he had just said had never happened before. "If it would further convince your director of the soundness of an allyship under me, I shall provide Chaldea with a gift."

Sourd watched Nicolo for a moment. "You fascinate me, ma'am" he said, "You really do. I was not jesting about the study my colleges would perform, but now I suspect that I may need to change the area to something less derogatory." "I grew from nothing. A poor boy in a slum to a young adult in a land that hated me. I had to cheat my way into the Clock Tower and bow down to Magus I was disgusted at. I even arranged for several to be killed, not only for political reasons but because as my rank grew I discovered the full extent of their research. I may be power-hungry as you may think I am, and it is true that I desire power beyond what any Magus has ever been able to reach, but like I have told you time and time again." "I am not a cheap man. Needless brutality is for Magus who are weak and unable to understand why they are forever forced to be gutter-pigs who feed on the few scraps we True Magus throw to them. What power I have and what I shall gain shall be through my superior blood and by force of will that supersedes all. I am known as the Golden Magus, and I will not tolerate defects or fools gold within my peerless alloy." "So do not dare to group me with those pathethic men who call themselves Magus for I am far above those savages. What I ask, I ask only because of how great a importance this is. And when I make my word, I make it stronger than iron."

Pausing for a few short moments, the woman turned to look back at Nazaire. Her eyes fixated upon him for a few long moments before finally she spoke once again after listening to him. "I once aspired to be a magus. However I have since learned the problems such a path leads. When a person is forced to deal with monsters every day, they will eventually forget to stop their hand before striking down these who aren't them. I do not care for a pact that will in some way cause you harm nor do I wish to do anything to you. I see the potential magic has for the sake of good as well, I am not willing to take chances with a magus however at his own game." With that the woman let out a sigh. Biting her own lip, the woman seemed conflicted for a few long moments before finally continuing. "There is a reason as to which I am unwilling to accept a deal honed by such threats. I'm willing to aid you and offer protection to the best of my ability however when it is my own soul on the line? That clashes with another promise. I do not underestimate you, Lord of the Clocktower. I can tell you're powerful and aren't in this position for no reason, it is why I exercise such caution. For me the Geas was merely meant as a promise to see you not use that power against the good of mankind and the world in which my own family and friends live. Not a means to control you or use as some kind of a bartering chip." With that she chuckled. "I'm not a magus. I don't play these games."

"I have just the place. It is right below my personal quarters and archives." Sourd snapped his fingers and one of the doors of the Observation Room flew open. The room itself was simple with wood paneling and a table with four chairs lined around it. On the table there were four cups and a single steaming ceramic teapot that steamed. There was a single bell on the table as well. "Da-Hong Pao tea," Sourd explained as he held the doors open for the three, "I believe that this was declared a national treasure by the Chinese. It can only be brewed with the Mother Trees which reside at the highest peaks, of which only six are known to exist. I own the seventh one, it was one of my first alchemic achievements to perfectly replicate such a rare thing." There was a window that dominated the south side of the room. It was raining outside, drenching the whole of London. It looked like a impressionist painting gone wild as the vibrant colours of the city were all muddied and mixed together. Despite it being freezing outside, this room felt warm to all. "This room is shielded with my own metals so that nothing can penetrate it, no spell will be able to spy on your discussions," Sourd nodded, "Ring the bell when you have come to a conclusion. I suggest you contemplate the full scale of a refusal." Without waiting for a reply he shut the door behind him.

"Maybe what you state is true, but you cannot risk the fact that you would rather have me on your side right now then your enemy. This clause is included purely as the last resort if you were to choose a weak Master Candidate over me. If we both are able to fulfill our end of the bargain this will remain what it is, a condition that we should hope shall never come to pass."

There was also a slight mention that he would keep at least a 10% of the stock after the singularity was over though he stated his intention was mostly to keep this stock so that he could keep his eye on Chaldea and continue to use them as another way to spend his extraordinary amount of cash.

"Very well. As you said before, you are poorly receptive to threats," he leaned forward, "So I will detail conditions in the case that you should choose to betray me. It is unfortunate, but is something that must be done in my eyes to ensure that you do not plant a dagger in my back after everything I have granted you. I am sure you are all aware of the effects of a Geas Scroll, it is a form of curse magecraft that even I am reluctant to use save for the most unique of situations. And this situation is every definition of that term. "I will keep it simple: an attempt at betraying me in a personal matter will result in the prevention of Master Nicolo and Muramasa's ability to ever pass down their family crest, ensuring that it will die with them. If Chaldea itself as a whole choose to betray me, then you and Servant Taigong will be subject to eliminating those within the command structure who approved of such a thing. Master of the Arts Taigong, if you choose to betray me, then Master Odison you mentioned earlier will pay the price at your hand." "And this is the consequences for me personally should I fail to keep my end of the bargain. The vessel known as my body will cease function but I will be aware of every aspect of my existence in this half-death state. I will feel every single part of my body decay and rot away under the hot sun, even should a hair string escape my body I will feel it dissolve in the oceans. Not even when I am but specks will this agony end. A most horrible end I can think of and one that is quite humiliating, to be trapped in this frail body of mine for to close to eternity to ponder on every single one of my failures" He took an intake of breath after that long declaration. "That is what shall happen if I betray you and what will happen to you and Chaldea if you betray me. Is that understood?"

The lift stopped and Sourd stepped out. They were in front of a great steel vault some eighty kilometers below the ground. The air was thick that made both Masters feel sick but Taigong himself empowered. He merely touched the door and a reinforced alchemic door easily big enough to drive a train through opened up to reveal a vast room filled to the brim with gold and treasure. Mounds upon mounds of it in massive hills that seemed to tower for almost a hundred feet. Rubies and jewels the size of fists. Mythical armour and enchanted weapons. Diamonds flowing out of golden goblets. "My down payment and future support for Chaldea," Sourd chuckled, the golden reflection deflecting off his mask, "Do not attempt to swim in it.

Sitting on the steps outside the main doors clad in his fine silk, Mansa Musa was pondering the lands around him, closing his eyes as he listened to the chirp of the birds and the way the way the wind creaked his garden's trees. His eyes opened as he heard the crunching of Theano's steps on the path. "Ah, so you have returned in glory," he stood up, "Are you ready?"

Once again present in the wonderful garden, Theano took a moment to breathe in the fresh air before finally speaking up and looking at Mansa Musa. "Yes. I am. Though I would hardly call it returning in Glory considering the circumstances. Now, what is the next step?"

"Understood." With that Theano kept close to the man and let out a soft sigh. She was prepared- at least mentally for what had come next. Over the course of her adventures and missions she had been in the singularity, she had suffered near death experiences on multiple occasions. Besides... If her sister could die the way she did with the crest- it was about high time she had access to it herself. Not to mention the simple degree of power the scarf will contain in it following this.

After ascending up the elevator back the observatory Theano would see in the center was Sourd speaking to a group of figures covered from head to toe in yellow robes. Beside them were trays upon trays of instruments and in the very middle of the room was a seat not quite unlike one someone would see in a dentist's office. Of course around the leg areas, wrists, and head there were iron restraints.

"No doubt multiple people have told you the risks and given you chances to turn back. But I will not waste your time. Your determination for having made it this far is answer enough." "Take a seat," he said, "If my Tuners speak correctly, it will be relatively quick. However, you must have the strength of will and constitution if you wish to survive the procedure."

She was prepared for what came next, letting out a simple sigh as she watched over the restraints... "If possible I'd prefer the restraints not to be had.

To describe the work was... impossible to be honest. It all would become a blur to her of muttered spells being cast. Scalpels and saws seeming to be used indiscriminately. Arguments breaking out every minute, happening as often as the complications that followed. And the pain, Christ Above, how to even come close to comprehending it. Surely even her teacher would have balked at this. (Make constitution and charisma saving throw.)

With the skin of her teeth she was able to avoid permanent damage to her body and before her nerves were literally fried. "We're losing her! We're losing her!" one of the Tuners shouted as suddenly a massive geyser of blood exploded from somewhere. The pain was too much for Theano and it seemed that everything went black. Opening her eyes she was in some sort of weightless back void. Yet her feet were touching some sort of ground.

"We..." she paused for a long while. "are the Nicolos. You, Me, Dee, we're a family. Even though the most difficult times were always had and held each other no matter what. Every time that bond was tested, even when I sacrificed myself to save all of Chaldea, I still came back to say one last goodbye. We are so much more beyond a simple sash, we do not need to be Amazon by blood or sash in order to be forever connected to them. We are Nicolos. Nothing can ever tear that apart, not a decaying magical crest, not any foe we face... heh, not even ourselves." "It may just be you and Dee now.

". . ." Theano paused for a few long moments, biting her lower lip... She wanted to protest and yet... She couldn't. Somewhat, deep inside her however the prospect of the sash remaining destroyed hurt her deep down even now. "We are family- yeah. That much is true. I won't fight you on it Vee, I... I know you're right. That is never going to change but..." With that Theano shook her head, suddenly relaxing. "It's more than just about family, I owe it to you. I owe it to everyone. I've always been the runt, hell. Even now-- I'm not even remotely as strong as you were or as durable. I'm not as charismatic or as capable of leadership as Desponia either- If anything I've came all the way to chaldea to imitate you." With that Theano looked down at her hand, looking at the scraps of the Sash she always carried on her left wrist. ". . . You know..." "Yeah. This isn't for our family. It isn't for you either. You never asked me to do this- neither has Desponia or even Penthesilea. This is my own selfish desire. I don't want to see the sash destroyed. My entire life I wanted little more than to have it, to hold it... To use it. Now though- It's not just about having it. Truthfully, I'm ready to die in an attempt to remake it because of something much simpler than that desire to have it..." "I'm just stubborn and unwilling to let go of it. I hate the very thought. I hate the idea. It's our legacy. Every time I go into battle, every time I get hurt or feel the taste of my blood... I feel the rush, the desire to conquer and fight on. Frankly... I want to grasp at that feeling- get closer to it. Feel it out. I know the calling- I know what it is. Hell... I get why you kept rushing in ahead of everyone. It wasn't just because you wanted to be a hero was it? You felt it too. Well..." "It's my legacy. It's my birthright. You are right. We will always be family- always be amazons. But I refuse to let go of what is our-- No. What is mine. I guess I'm just

"And I love you for that," a giggle came from the void, "There's no doubt you are my Sister, Fee." "You are right. Our legacy is not without worth... but it your pursuit of it that has truly makes it our own. By chasing after it you have shown you simply do not receive it by simply having Ares blood or given ownership over a sash, but that you deserve to have it. That you are of Ares even if somehow you were to lose your blood. That is truly what makes a Nicolo, Fee, that is what made me a Hero. I must have felt that rush too. "To me that rush was merely a faint feeling that showed me the general direction of my foes. But what pushed me to take up my spear was who stood behind me, my dear friends and you and Dee. When I fought for my life, I was truly fighting for those I loved. I didn't just fight for that rush, I fought for you. That was what made me do those feats."

He handed her the sash, glowing a deep red from it, no longer blighted by damage from the ages or frayed from misuse. Perfect as the day it was created. "I do hope you appreciate it.

For just a moment, she took in a sharp breath... ". . . It's better than I imagined it would be. I forgot that I never saw it in it's true glory. Not like this." With that the woman threw the Sash over her shoulder, trying it up to herself and taking a moment to extend her magical energy trough it- sending a surge of power into the item before finally... Letting out a soft chuckle. "Ευχαριστώ αδερφή. Ευχαριστώ παππού Árēs." "I have felt it, yes. Granted, it did little more than motivate me to keep fighting. The pain was intense, however... You know what they say. Pain makes you stronger." With that she squeezed her hand into a fist and looked to Sourd. "Thank you for your help once again.

For once Nicolo would notice, or maybe be allowed to, that behind the black void where the eyes of his golden mask were: was terribly burnt and scarred flesh. "It provides the motivation indeed." He turned around, strutting away down the blood-soaked floor, "Indeed, you shall assist me on escaping this singularity. But first we must deal with the Lords who oppose me. I cannot afford to even attempt if I know they will interfere. Settle your affairs first, then you will have no excuse not to assist me in mine."

They shape who we are more than our victories- they're a proof of our will to survive. That's what I've always lived by." With that she tugged on her Sash, once again running her hand against it's fabric before chuckling. "I do have one more request. Though this one is entirely optional and I will not push the matter unless you don't find too many problems with it. Would it be possible for me to have one more Bone of Albion?
