Cornelia Castle - Linked Destinies

[YolkaEd]

"And STAY there!" a guard shouted, as he shoved Danari into a prison cell, located underneath Cornelia Castle, before locking it.


Danari rubbed his head, as he looked at his surroundings. "Well, this could have turned out better..." he sighed, as he looked across the room, to see three cells not occupied by anyone. "I suppose the others are going to be thrown in there... O, Sage Lukahn, how did I get into this mess?"

[Alien-Child]

"See must be the ring-leader!" A guard commented as he carried Kaito Sierra into the cell, not bothering to wake her less there'll be fuss, but he did toss her onto the hay bed before he left the cell and locked.


"Zzzzzz..uh?" Sierra said as she began waking up, and look around, to see stone walls and bars, "Where am I?"

[HarpieAna]

As she was put into the cell, Talina calmly answered Sierra's question.

"Well, thanks to you, we're in prison." Talina leaned against the wall, eyes cast on the bars. She was infuriated, to say the very least, but her face remained expressionless. It was as if there was nothing to worry about.

[flue]

While not thrown into the cell as much as lead quietly in there by the guards, he still found it degrading to be regarded a criminal for something he had not done at all. But he couldn't blame the girl; this wasn't her fault at all, it was all a nasty misunderstanding by the guards, that's all. They'd get a chance to prove their innocence soon enough. With a sigh, he pulled off his robe and his chain mail - never knew - leaving him in the lighter clothes underneath, a pair of traveling pants and a linen shirt. He found the cellar to be quite warm and damp. Walking over to the bars, wrapping his hands around them, he gazed around at the other cells.
"Are everyone alright?" he called, worried that the guards might've harmed them.

[YolkaEd]

Hearing the voice from the knight, Danari placed his back against the wall. "If you count "imprisoned for actions never commited" as alright, then yeah, I guess I am." he said in a polite tone, as he dug into his pocket, and took out the blue crystal he had looked at earlier, just to examine it.

[Alien-Child]

"Wait! Are you guys telling me, I'm in prison?!" The theif screamed as she emtpy her bag and yet...no gil, no pendant and no jewel! "I'm Kaito Sierra, I never got caught!" She growled as she went into her hair and pulled our her hair clip as she ran to the cell's door, "I'm getting out of her alive even if it kills me!" She grows, but after a second of trying to pick the lock..
SNAP!
Her hair clip snapped in half. "DANGIT!"

[flue]

Alkim's eyes snapped onto the thief in the cell facing his, watching as the girl screamed and rushed towards the door, something looking like a hair clip in her hand. As the clip snapped and the girl screamed with rage, he frowned with concern and smacked his hand against the bars, the clang resounding through the cells. "Please! Shouting and screaming won't get any of us anywhere!" he said, eyes on the young thief as he regarded her. What could've driven her to steal from the royal family..?

[YolkaEd]

Sighing, Danari continued fiddling with the small crystal in his hands. "Besides, it's not permanent; the guards said something about preparing the court, which would take a day or two. But still..." He sighed. Sure, the thief could have stolen from the castle, but unless they had fool-proof alibies, he was certain that the judgment of the court would overrule theirs... "O, Sage Lukahn, give me advice in these dark hours." he muttered, as he clasped the crystal tightly with his hands, unaware of the glow it began reflecting...

[flue]

Alkim sighed as well as he listened to Danari speaking, resting his head against the bars of the cell. Oh dear, what a situation... If he'd just found the inn right away, he wouldn't be here right now... Vaguely listening to the black mage mumbling to himself - praying, perhaps? - he turned his back on the bars and watched his robe quietly - until he saw what looked like a glowing light through the fabric. Frowning deeply, the man rushed over to his robe - could it be a fire? He drove his hand into the pocket, pulling out the red crystal he had found, watching with wide eyes as it shone. "What magic is this..?"

[HarpieAna]

Talina listened in amusement at Kaito's tactics. She closed her eyes, smirking.

'My, aren't they immature? I have no worries on this...unfortunate predicament. I shall be rescued soon...Oharu, you better hurry up.'

If one was to look closely, they would see that her staff was not tied to her back. The soldiers had taken their weapons, much to their disadvantage. But Talina wasn't very worried about the staff; in fact, she knew it was in safe hands. And she didn't mean the soldiers, either...

[Alien-Child]

"Well..time for Plan B!" Kaito said as she started grabbing the bricks on the wall, but they won't budge. "C'mon...move you stupid rock!"

[HarpieAna]

"Child, this prison was specially designed to hold wielders of magic and weapons. Magic cannot destroy these bars or any other part of this cell, and weapons have the same problems. Do you honestly expect your own hands would do the trick?" Talina said, loud enough for Kaito to hear.

And then she saw Danari and Alkim's stones, as well as their shine. Talina stared. "...what are you two doing...?"

[flue]

Fascinated with the odd glow of the gem, he only vaguely heard the thief shouting as she fought in her cell to escape, and the female black mage speak to her. It was so strange, there was nothing to indicate the crystal would start glowing like it did, it was just a rock!
Noticing the girl spoke to them, Alkim turned to face her, before gazing at the crystal once more. "I wish I knew, it... Just started glowing," he said as he walked to the bars, holding out the crystal so she could see it. "You're a wielder of magic, right? Can you tell me what it's doing?" It had to be some sort of magic!

[Alien-Child]

Making a growl at what Talina just said, he turn to whee Danari was, "So what's going over there?"

[YolkaEd]

Danari opened his eyes, as he saw the blue light eminating from his crystal. "It's doing it again... it glowed like this earlier... By Lukahn, what kind of magic is this?" he said in awe, as he quickly got to his feet, fascinated. "In all my studies in Elfheim, I have never read about anything like this! It's marvelous; the magic find of the century!"
