Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Although I might not look it, I see evil as a point of view. I was once as evil as one would think, but it was all to protect my family and my life, even though I failed." He looks down and sips the wine anyway. "I've killed...I've slaughtered. Even now if I do it, it's for good, no matter how obscured the view is. It's just that now, what you're doing will bring about the end of us all." Nephilis finishes the glass. "If good and evil exists, the only way it's determined is by the net gain and outcome. Alastor's reign will kill many innocent people no reason. Is that not different from killing guilty people for a reason? I'm not concerned about good and evil my friend, I'm concerned about right and wrong, necessary and unecessary."

~Samara, if you can hear me, I want you to leave this place. The entire continent if you can and go far, far away. I'll catch up later, okay?~



~Okay.~ Alastor simply responds. Frustrated at the turn of events, he makes his way back to the center of the action hiding his aura and face from all. "I guess if you don't kill him, I will."



"Purpose." Responds Marcove. "Purpose. The events just led up to it I suppose, then again, my father planned the entire thing...all of it. For us to find the stones, for us to fight...all of it even up until he died. We killed him, so The Celestial Kingdom needed leaders. We were chosen because we had the stones."

By this time both Plague and Leon were standing near Samara, and Ricky they had finished their fights with the minor enemies and now personnally wanted to see what was going on. " The Guildmaster was always a man with a diplomatic side. " Plague said as he watched his former leader.

The Guildmaster looked at Nephilis with deep thinking eyes. " It's not really that shocking that you once were evil, I was once what you would call good. In my first couple of identities I was like you now a kind man with a family hoping to only raise my daughter and keep my wife safe. However I could not no matter what I did to protect them one desaster after another struck my life like a wave. My little girl became bed ridden, and my wife was attacked by a wolf outside of our idyllic home, she lived but the attack left her crippled. Finally after being bed ridden for about 14 weeks my little girl passed on. My wife was soon after her, to this day I still do not know the reason maybe it was simply depression, who knows. I tried again to have a family and I was successful but it became aparant I could not show them any love, the years passed by and my family grew old while I staye the same my appearance never shifting from what I had made it out to be, it devestated me having to see my family once again pass from my life again, and again and again. Finally I gave up on that and became the man you see before you, cold and as Alastor calls me. " Tall Dark and Scary. " He said as he swirled the wine around in it's glass. " But I notice you have still failed to anser my question, what is it I personnally gain from this contract? I understand that it would be the 'right' thing to do but that isn't really a reward in my eyes. " He said as he looked Nephilis in the eye.

Samara nodded. ~Alright...we'll go to Herbacea~ she responded. ~Just make sure you do catch up to me. I have something you'll want to know.~

The Guildmaster stood up from his seat and gently scooted the chair back into place. He snapped his fingers and watched as the table and chairs disappeared. He turned and walked a few steps away before turning around. " Alright. Now Nephilis, I will show you how it is I cheated death so many times before. " He said as he raised his left hand. He gripped his knuckles and watched as a black flame enveloped his hand. " At your ready, Nephilis. " He said calmly.

~I love you Nephilis. Be careful~ Samara responded. She turned her projections to Christiaan. ~Christiaan, I need you to help me get the children to Herbacea.~ Within a moment, Christiaan appeared out from the shadows. "Alright...let's get out of here. Tenshi, call Neko for me so we can all travel together," Samara said. "Actually, you all go ahead. I need to get Lunia."

Christiaan nodded. "Morganna, you take Ricky on ahead," she said. "I'll take Flip, Neko and Tenshi. Samara can bring Lunia."

Morganna nodded. She walked over to Ricky. "Take my hand. We'll travel by shadow to Herbacea," she said, holding her hand out to him.

Leon and Plague could tell from what Samara said that they both needed to leave. Plague looked at Samara and said. " Do you need any help getting people out of here? My mist Dispersal technique was developed for situations like this. " He said at least trying to offer some assistance in times like this when the fighting was done between the exceptionally powerful and both he and Leon could only sit by and watch.

Tenshi realizes his mother was in pain and that she was hurt, he ran over to her with Neko not so far behind. " Mom!" He called out sliding into a halt and looks over her wounds making sure she was not seriously harmed. "Mom, are you okay, he did this to you?" He questioned helping her stand so she wont be in pain or use to much energy. He then heard what she had said and he couldnt leave Morganna and everyone else behind, he was tired of running. "I'm not leaving Nephilis here alone or anyone else. Neko help mom." Neko came up and stood beside her for support, Tenshi then backed away and ran towards Lunia.
