Welcome to Gaia! ::

Celarius seemed more beautiful the way it was now in one sense than it had been before the Lady had passed on. Dais looked in the distance, searching for what had been the library building. Unlike Vackel and Meracitile, Celarius's library blended in with much of the other buildings.

On Dais's shoulder, Aldon meeped and curled up. The ferret liked forests, but Celarius was ... not quite as lush anymore.

As the Oracle spoke, Dais turned back to the group watching them for their actions. Who would step up? Ideally, it would be someone without ties to the other kingdoms as to balance out any one kingdom having too much power. Someone from Celarius. That someone had to have the willpower. If that someone didn't, it was a win for Shade's group if they could harness it.

Dais was not about to volunteer himself. He didn't fit any of the criteria. And even though he was strong enough to handle the Solus Rays, neither the Oracle nor himself would want to have him deal with it. It would put him into a predicament, a severe conflict of interest situation, possibly forcing him into a different side.

He shook his head when Ashford volunteered herself. After hearing her speak earlier and from her relations to a different realm, she was not the ideal candidate. This survivor from Celarius, he knew nothing about.

((Was I ignored just now? ?_?))

Mai had already arrived in Celarius, shortly after the others did. She took a different means of travel in which in her own powers was almost as quick as teleportation. She was deep in the main city, helping people rebuild their homes and other buildings. She was working diligently on the city's hospital first, using her abilities where she could. She no longer cared about hiding herself now. She was too deep into everything that was happening. Her body however, was on overdrive. She's used up so much energy already in everything she's done in the last day, even though the sun was setting now and night was beginning to take over.

She knew she couldn't stop, not with the way things were now. She knew the people there needed her help, and when word came to her ears that the Oracle and the others were in the area, she felt a stab of annoyance. But she accepted it regardless, afterall, they weren't there for her. One of the survivors approached her, bringing her some water. "Here you go miss." Mai finished rebuilding a wall and stopped for a quick swig of water to keep her going. "Please, give the rest to the injured." The survivor nodded and headed out again, and Mai resumed with what she was doing.

Mai had finally finished rebuilding the main hospital and the injured were already being carried in. She had moved to help find and bring in the injured, and if she ever came across a stray creature, its body would disintegrate into the air with her powers. She was digging through the wreckage of one of the mills, lifting large planks of wood out of the way. She glanced over to a few people who seemed like they weren't hurt too bad. "Help me move this, there are more trapped inside." A man nodded and came over to help. But she quickly took notice of excessive swelling in his leg and massive bruising and stopped him before she could continue. She placed a hand on the leg very gently and let herself sense what the injury was.

"You're bleeding internally. Hold still." The man nodded and listened as her eyes went white, and she reversed the flow of the excessive blood back into his veins and sealed off the area that was ruptured. "Go to the medical building, have yourself checked over to make sure you aren't bleeding anywhere else." Mai had some people help the man back to make sure he would make it. Turning back to the pile of rubble, she started pulling things out of the way again.

Mai knew she couldn't keep using her powers like that or she wouldn't be very much more use. So she used them now in reserve and relied on her physical strength in which she gained quite a bit from working in the refineries in Damascus.

Kaori smiled over at Fayte"It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance."she said with a respectful bow of her head."If only we were under better circumstances."she spoke in a hushed tone and a saddened look shot across her face. She then looked back at Fayte, the sadness lightened up." Normally I would be fine with sticking around and waiting for your decision, but there are people that need help and I must help them out."she told all of them, but looked at Fayte. Kaori knew how much Celarius and her people meant to Silver, and so she would help protect them and replenish this once beautiful land in her absence."I hope the decision is made quickly and wisely, I believe we haven't much time left."she spoke and turned to look at the raging of the Solus Rays."So if I may be excused, I really must help the surviving people."She turn back to the others and waiting for them to speak.

Aldon echoed Kaori's sentiment, but in a different way. The ferret was getting bored and decided to run off after Kaori, someone he did not know. Of course, he did have the ulterior motive to try out Kaori's hair.

Dais made no motion to stop the ferret, although given the situation, it was inappropriate for the ferret to act this way. He had stopped Aldon from testing the Oracle's hair, but for anyone else, it didn't matter. Even Shade. But it seemed that Aldon had already disapproved of Shade's purple hair for whatever reason.

In any event, the librarian probably should be leaving the group of the younger royal related persons. He was supposed to be here, according to Hodge, to tend to the library. He could still keep track of the conversation and visual of the area through remote means while being somewhere else anyway.
