Palace

Acron nods "Toodles then."

Acron heads toward the Inn


Caed looks at Fate,

"Onward?"

Palace

"Of course."

Fate reaches a hand to each of them.

"We can travel using magic."

Palace
Roy cautiously grabs onto Fate's hand, waiting for Caed to do the same.

Palace

"Off we go, I will follow." Caed says crossing his arms.

Palace

Fate stares at Caed for a while, then nods.

"If you so wish."

And he is gone.

Felix

Fate walks out of an abandoned shed, looking about, and motions for Roy to follow.

Felix
Roy walks out.
"Where exactly are we now?"

Palace

Caed turns and walks back to the center of the massacre.

"This is your domain, I know you are here Rider, Show yourself."

Inn

Acron reaches the Inn and investigates the closet.

Palace

The air weighs heavily on Caed's shoulders. A strange and deep chill runs through him, and the bodies seem to stir as a ripple forms in the air and the Rider approaches on his Pale Horse. A fetid fog obscures vision around the two.

"Why do you speak, lesser one?"

Felix

"Felix. The town near your training location."

He looks around again.

"Caed has yet to appear."

Felix
"Right."
"And what was that that we needed you for?"

Palace

"Skipping the pleasantries? No 'Hi how are you?' That is just rude. Regardless, I simply wish to know your goddamn motives, I do not enjoy massacring an entire palace full of guards and am curious what your goddamn endgame is."

Caed just stares at the fog.

Inn

Acron opens the closet to find a trove of stuff, A bare iron masquerade mask that looks like a bird, a heavy (but not cumbersome) white cloak, a white ring with a black hawk on the outside and Medeis etched on the inside, and a silver viola.

"That is the oddest thing I have ever seen." he says upon examining the viola.

He puts on the mask and the cloak switching it out with his old one, emptying the pockets and putting the stuff in the new cloak.

After he is redressed he pulls out the Viola and tests it, upon finding it to sound like the best wood yet still being silver he plays a drinking song in celebration.
