Welcome to Gaia! ::

Nola started to respond but her eyes cast over to the green light in the wall, her eyes widened before she felt an explosion throw her into the opposing wall.
Her sword flew further down the alleyway and she gripped her head for a moment, blood ran down her left arm and her vision was fuzzy for a moment.

She stood up staggering a little before looking towards Mirela, her bangs covered her eyes as she chuckled before a toothy grin slid across her face as blood ran down the right side of her face.
Green energy glowed as the smoke started to clear and in her hand was an exact replica of Mirela's Violin and Bow, lifting her head to show her amber eyes she brought the bow to the violin closing her eyes and calming her expression to a blank one.

"That hurt....but I have to thank you."
She opened her eyes.
"I finally have my own violin. Let me repay you by playing a piece for you."
She leaned her head to the side cracking her neck before a small smile formed on her face.
"Your Requiem."

A shadowy figure stood up as two black stands stood on each side of a small staircase as black shadows moved at the base of it.
A small smile formed on the figures face as he held his arm out causing two black candles to light from the two black stands revealing a black throne with red vines wrapping around the arm rests.
Black candles started to light up in rows throughout the dark room revealing people in black robes, the flickering flames manipulating the shadows to move between them causing them to fade in and out of darkness their faces hidden by their hoods.
"Who's ready for a little fun?" the man spoke the words before a low chuckle escaped from him.

Nola placed the bow on the strings with a small smile seeing the surprise that came across Mirela's face, putting the violin under her chin she spread her feet a little bit listening to Mirela, a small frown formed on her face when she heard she didn't like requiems, she didn't know what else place for her then it seemed the most fitting.
"I'm a mimic, I'm able to borrow my opponents abilities, though it can differ at times."
Seeing her play her violin she laughed and let her play believing it'd be more fun that way.

"I would love a duet," Nola said as the spears flew towards her,
She moved the bow slowly across the strings causing red energy to circle around her as she played softly a whirlpool of red energy rotated around her deflecting the three spears flying at her, however the one from above went over the whirlpool forcing her to dodge out of the way stopping her play at the same time, however the spear came close cutting through her robe revealing the white she wore underneath.
Looking down at it she glared at her.
"I liked this robe."

The whirlpool dissipated and she sped up making sure to avoid any low notes as two red walls of energy appeared beside them, her fingers sped up and she closed her eyes to ignore the pain in her left arm, she continued to play keeping the walls up as little red holes started to appear with them, her fingers started to bleed as she continued to play causing the blood to run down the strings.

She waited for the man to answer but he was definitely taking his sweet time.
Moving to a lower rafter, she wanted to get a closer look but this was about as close as she was getting for now at least.
She rolled her eyes when she heard who had sent him.
"I thought I had told him to leave me alone." she whispered, not loud enough for the man to hear her.
Cracking her knuckles, she then jumped down, landing about twenty feet in front of him.
Standing up from her crouched position, her eyes met his own.
"And why would you want to do that?" she asked him, her eyes slightly hooded by her eyelids as always.

The flames flickered before they became smaller.
She didn't trust the cloaked man and she didn't have any reason to trust this one.. but that didn't mean she wouldn't be on edge, she always was due to all the fights that had been breaking out lately.
Birth and the Reaper didn't get along and she didn't see how they ever would.

Her blue eyes looked at him scanning him before she slowly walked closer.
"I travel alone." she told him as she stood right in front of him, putting her hands down on the bench as she looked at him.
"I don't need you slowing me down or getting in my way." perhaps she was a bit antisocial but who could blame her after what had happened to her?
"I don't like being followed either." she said, her voice stern.
"Of course, I'll keep in mind what you've told me so far but tell your leader I'm not interest in a personal guard." Flora took a few steps back before she rolled her shoulder back.

She turned around after that deciding that this conversation was finished as she looked up at the roof, the candle returning to the way that they usually were.
Guessing that he was going to leave, or at least she hoped he would, she decided that she would leave once she got all of her supplies and then head out of the city.

'So, she's a mimic...' Mirela watched as Nola narrowly avoided most of her assault. Her eyes widened however and she breathed a sigh of relief when the spears missed after being rebounded from the whirlpool. "That was close..." She muttered as the last spear cut through Nola's robe.

"I liked this robe."

"Pity, I liked my violin case." Mirela watched as the whirlpool dissipated, curious as to what Nola was doing next. She readied herself to play as Nola summoned up the walls of red energy. 'What is she doing?' Figuring that it would be best to not let Nola finish her move, Mirela began rapidly playing, shutting her left eye before blood from her wound could find its way in. As she played, the ground beneath Nola's feet began to rumble and Mirela tried changing her melody to calm herself-- She didn't need another explosion.

From changing the rapid melody to something a bit more slow with smooth changes in dynamics, the rumbling ceased and a ring of green energy began forming around Nola's feet. By picking up the tempo, a pale green serpent made up of energy began to emerge from the ring and circle its way around Nola without touching her, working its way up to her upper body. As it reached its destination, Mirela quickened the tempo dramatically and watched her creation begin to enclose her opponent. 'Perhaps if I can disable her from playing, I'll be able to turn this around...'

Pillars of water erupted from the earth as Erala laughed seeing Tsuliria fly through the air, she quickly pulled all the pillars aside and moving them above her brought them down on Tsuliria slamming her into the earth as the water moved back over to her hovering around her body.
"I've been practicing my skills, though it's water I control it's density so it feels like your getting hit by a stone wall each time I connect, which has been every time!"

She brought her water back as Tsuliria stood up only to be hit by a fist formed by water sending her tumbling back again.
Erala walked towards her summoning more water behind her as Tsuliria spit out some of it out and stood up again, her clothing was soaked and her hair was sticking to her face, Erala saw her blank expression and felt her anger rising again.

She had slammed her against the ground more times than she could count, hit her with pillars of water and she looked the same as always.
"Listen you, I-" Erala's sentence was cut short as chains wrapped around her eyes and neck, her magic vanishing in the process.

"This is about the time you survived our last fight, I figured I'd give you one last moment of glory before you joined Yolor."
Erala pulled at the chains but Tsuliria tightened them and hoisted her up more.
"Where's Ulior...."
"I... don't...know..." Her voice was strained as she continued to pull at the chains.
Tsuliria slammed her into the ground before lifting her back up.
"You can't use your water without your sight, don't make me permanently, get rid of it. Now, where...is...Ulior."
Erala coughed a few times and shook her head.
"I really don't know, only Yosa, Kailor and Amora know and I don't know where they're at"
Tsuliria sighed and a loud crack was heard before Erala's body went limp.
Throwing it aside she continued towards the barrier following her chains towards Jazz.

Nola sat up slightly confused at what had just happened to her, looking down a ring of light had surrounded her from the interrupting guy/
The walls started moving since her melody had stopped meaning her attack was about to go through, focusing she overwrote Mirela's ability with Jazz's and tracing the energy signature of the ring made it slightly bigger making it fall off her.
"He must be the old envoy..." she said rubbing her wrist. "If that's the case..."
She pointed at Jazz with a small smile.
"You must be Mr. Fairy! The one who killed Yolor!"
Nola started laugh but felt a shiver run down her spine which only meant one thing...Tsuliria was back.
Bending down she jumped into the air before landing on a nearby roof.
"Good luck Mirela! Let's play again!"
With that she ran towards the border of town towards Tsuliria, she met her roughly halfway and stopped in front of her.
Before she could speak however Tsuliria pointed towards the barrier.
"Go to Reaper and inform him of Ulior's betrayal, and inform him I'm adding Ulior's elimination to my mission."

Nola nodded deciding not to argue with her seeing she was wet. Which lead her to the conclusion that she ran into Erala.
Judging by the slight narrowing of Tsuliria's eyes also meant she was probably dead.
Nola jumped past Tsuliria and continued towards the border while Tsuliria continued in Jazz's direction.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Troops garbed in black robes made their way towards a nearby stable and started jumping on the horses, the manager started to argue when he saw a tall man walk out with a smirk on his face, he peered into the man's eyes before his own went blank, he let out a strained breath before falling over unconscious.

More of the men started jumping onto horses as the troops tied a large throne to three horses before the tall man jumped on the horses and sat in the chair taking hold of the reins, he crossed his legs and rested his cheek on his fist.
"Make fond memories men, it's a beautiful day for a little crimson!"
With that his horses lurched forward as the men followed behind him, the tall man chuckled as they furthered themselves from the home base towards the villages.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A figure in a full white cloak looked at the red barrier around the city, walking towards it the figure shook their concealed head/
Red eyes the only visible thing from the hood looked upon the city as a pale hand gripped the cloak.
"That stupid fool."

"So you're the original envoy?"

Jazz ignored her question. She was still so much a child, why would Birth choose her, unless it was just to bring him back. Jazz lifted a hand, it soft glow pulsing from the glove. Without words, he dashed forward, his hand gripping the young womans face. She began to glow as well, the blood slowly dissipating.

"Since I got Loyalty, my powers with Birth have been more in tune....I can't bring back the dead, but your scrapes shouldn't be too hard to fix."

Why did he heal her? Perhaps Jazz felt remorse for this young woman, dragged into this war just as he was. Still, deep down he knew this woman would have a long journey ahead of her. He wanted to test her full strength as an envoy of Birth.

"Don't get me wrong, I still plan to fight you, but I won't fight an unfair fight."

Releasing her, he took a few steps back, his eyes never leaving hers. He flexed his hands, a soft glow consuming them.

"Prepare yourself!"

Jazz leapt into the air, hurling two spears at her feet before throwing two more into the building behind her.
