The moment Lyn came in and made and Rey dropped his gun every cell was screaming for Dethrial to kill the man that had threatened him and was shown to be completely bipolar not to mention a necromancer, but after listing to everyone else talk Dethrial relented lowering his guard. "How is everyone here so nonchalant about this...but what say does make sense. I need to get us out of here and convince the others of that too. What is Selene doing now?" Dethrial sheaths his blade and walks over to J to check his vitals and speaks up "Hey, Selene or Lyn do you know any thing about body because nothing here feels right." As Dethrial is turning around he sees Jen falling over and runs over to help him offering him a shoulder and looks at Sirius with a worried look and takes a deep breath. "Do you have any idea of what's going on? I'm only going through what I've learned in my time in the army and none of it is helping me and frankly you guys don't take kindly to it either. You all seem like okay people and I want to help but you need to help me do this." After getting a response Dethrial leans against a wall in the hall and rubs his face with his right hand and looks distressed.

The head stares about the room in confusion. It's pretty clear that it is decently surprised. It then suddenly bursts out in hearty laughter. "Wot a silly bunch, ye are." he follows up, and then finally answers Reys question. Somewhat; "Well es no surprise, really. We 'eard ye 'Gaeans' were a lil thick." He laughs again. "Golly. Well - aroight then." he clears his throat - somehow - and continues talking, fortunately more seriously. "Lis'n you. This man, if ye can even call 'im tha', 's been doin' some pre'ey shitty research. Consequentually-" he stops, and raises his brow in thought. "...Consequently tha' bloke ruin'd our homeland. An' he's gunn' pay foret. Wouldn't be a nicker surprised t'see 'im havin' continued tha' nonsense over 'ere. An' quite frankleh. Ye already seen 'em buggers live, so, by now a reckon there'd be hundreds'em lil pests runnin' bout." His face contorts a little and he stares off into the distance - A sign that lens is starting to wear off. "Oi vey, them pretty lights." the head says as it starts to lose focus.
Lyn, standing against the frame of the door ponders this information. It then suddenly hits her. "Come to think of it. Apperceiving on this matter..." she shakes her head. "Maybe." She looks up from the floor feeling rather ignorant. "When I came here, as I've detailed before, I saw a white doorway in a forest I had gotten lost in." She tries her best to recall the incidents. "I remember touching it and suddenly finding myself in a wide room, on a stage, with many chairs directed towards me. Although- there were no people present so I panicked and fled the area." A moment later and she continues. "I recall two metal frames connected to some machine... it reminds me of the large gates we saw in the alleyway."
The head suddenly refocuses and scoffs. "Bloody right it did, lass." He spits at the ground - somehow - again. "When they came forem he took on'a our priestress wit'im." he scoffs again. "Jus' like the poor girl ye offed at tha' blokes h-... house..." Suddenly the head becomes unfocused again. The glint in his eyes slowly disappears. The lenses magic has come to its limits.
Jen's headache meanwhile takes on an almost violent property. He looks back at Sirius who is looking quite concerned. He still can't seem to break out of this fast developing headache. Suddenly he barrels over in pain - his headache transforming into a sharp sting that overloads all of his senses. Even unable to scream he collapses losing consciousness.
Sirius gasps in surprise, kneeling down beside him as he lays on the ground. By now he's caught the attention of the rest of the group. Sirius is staring back at them in confusion and panic from the sudden development.

Selene picks up the chicken and begins to pat it gently still speaking to it with slight baby talk. She looks over at Rey with a grin. "I guess he just likes me more." She smiles down at the animal and rocks the chicken in her arms humming until Dethrial barks at her. She slightly curls up and glares at him. "So awesome that you didn't listen to me last night." She says in a huff. "Great first impression right now." She shakes her head. "There isn't any damn magic you doof...its probably poison. Or hell maybe they are just tired and have a headache." She whispers to herself with an annoyed tone. She steps over the head as it continues to speak. Though she ignores it. She hops over Rauj and looks down at him. She lightly kicks his head with her foot. Nothing happens as she expected. She kneels down and gently places her pointer and middle finger on the lower left side of his neck. She counts in her head, and his heart rates matches up as a normal beat. She looks over his body quick. He is still breathing fine. He is sleeping. Deeply. Doi. She thinks. She stands up and shrugs. "Well I've done all I can do. He is out like a light." She looks over at Dethrial as he begins to speak his concerns. "You've been through an army like program and this is how you act??" She scoffs. If this is how he acts in the heat of battle he would be likely to get someone killed. Hell I'd kill him myself for the safety of myself and my squad. She thinks slightly shaking her head. She is slightly relieved when he gets up to leave and hang around the door.
Good. With him out of the way I could- Jen hits the floor. "Shit." Selene says. She plops the chicken on Rauj's chest and in one stride cleared the room. She grabs Jen moving him against the wall horizontally slightly propping him at an angle. In case of vomiting that she maybe unaware of. "There.' She says in a very calm tone. "Not if he throws up he wont suffocate." She shifts her gaze to Sirius. "You. Um..." She snaps her fingers. "Sirius! Has Jen eaten anything aside from what he had yesterday? He said he was a vampire. Has he...you know..." She avoids the question and checks his vitals as well. They're beating a bit faster, but it seems to be slowing down. She puts her left pointer and middle finger on Jen's right temple. And her right two at his heart. A slight orange glow. Her eyes go slightly hazy. "I-I don't really know what I'm healing...or if I even can, but this might help. It should hopefully keep his vitals in the norm." Hopefully... She thinks. She turns her head back to Rauj. "He added a bunch of stuff to his food." She looks back at Jen. "It might of been the food...but everyone ate a fair amount...so why only those two." She looks back up at Sirious. "Unless they were targeted." She look up at the door frame to still see Dethrials shoulder poking in. "Hey...Dehrial. Can you go see if anyone is awake downstairs yet? Like anyone? Check the rooms. Something. There is no way we are the only ones awake in here. If we were intended to be sleeping and are now awake then the people could be trying to flee. If there are any. or they are planning to attack while we're down two. Go slow and open any doors with your shield up and your sword ready to stab." She said that in a tone as if she was giving an order. Whether or not it works she doesn't care. She just doesn't want a third body to look after.

Reymondo ignores Selene when the head begins speaking again. He nods with what it says, but when Rey sees that the light in his eyes become unfocused he begins to panic a bit. "Shit! Not now! There is no way that it is almost out of juice!" "What do you expect? You got distracted and let your precious moments with the spirit slip away" Mitsuko says, leaning into him. Rey just looks at her for a moment before he turns and listens to Lyn and the head once again. He couldn't help be happy that the head was finally starting to give some desant information, but that happiness quickly fades along side with the light fading in his eyes. Rey then tries to focus more of his magic into the lens but as soon as the light is completely gone, the lens shatters like glass and evaporates into smoke. He stares at the now useless head that is in front of him. "He was just starting give us good stuff..." His voice trails off. "I don't even have to say anything." She then gets up and moves over to the head. "You already know who is responsible for this." And with that, she vanishes once again.
Rey then feels a sudden flood of adrenalin wash over him as his anger rises. Due to this, the flames lantern starts to dance wildly and he starts feeling it trying to consume him once again. Rey stands up and looks at Dethrial, for once returning the cold heartless glare that the man has been giving him. "Do you have ANY idea what you have done!?" He points to the head on the floor. "He was going to tell us where Winters was taken! He would of provided us with the answers we have ZERO way of knowing now!" As he speaks, he can hear the voices from the hellfire telling him to just let go again. He shakes his head as he does his best to push the thoughts away. But just as quickly looks back at Deth. "How are we going to work togther if you are going to hate everything little thing I do and stand for?! How do you expect me to respect you when you don't respect anyone but yourself?! HOW AM I TO TRUST YOU WHEN YOU SEEM TO WANT TO KILL ME WITH EVERY MOVEMENT I MAKE?!" He is taken aback when he hears his last question being spoken in Demonic tongue and not english.
He stands there for a few moments, catching his breath after yelling. Rey walks over to the head and puts it back into the pillowcase and ties it shut. Before Rey speaks again, he inhales slowly and exhales just a slow. "Dethrial, do not care what you do from this point on." He then looks around to address everyone. "I'm going to bury this man's head while everyone at this inn is still asleep. I am then going to go back to the Academy, there has to be someone there that will be able to help find where these Alv live and how to get there."
It is then he sees Jen collapse and Selene run over to his aid. Once again Rey lets out a sigh. "This is going to be a long day...I can just tell." He walks over to Selene. "Is there anything I can do to help? I don't know any healing magic or much in the way of first aid. However I am willing to do anything to help Jen out." Rey waits for her reply.

Dethrial ruffles his hair and sighs deeply as Jen slumps over Deth then keeps him from falling face first into the ground till Selene comes over. "One thing after another...Damn it all. Rey is having a fit like a child and Selene is acting like a child and I really can't deal with them right now. Though she's still more useful than Rey...maybe. Now, how am I going to work or even talk with Rey, he's acting like a fucking spoiled brat...not to mention the head said these people at the school are the real bad guys. Shepard give me strength to do this and light my way." After Selene stabilizes Jen Dethrial feels his vitals and grimices as another of his friends are falling. "What is happening to these two, am I the only sane person!?" As the thought pass though his mind a cold realization comes over Dethrial. I not making much progress am I Orneil...I've been stepping on a lot of toes and not sayin' sorry.
Selene was talking to him the entire time he was whispering and told him to check downstairs for anyone one fleeing Dethrial held up his right hand and calmly spoke "No, right now we need to stay together and get these to some where safe and I'm sorry for my foolishness." After that he stands up and walks into the room with Rey still fuming and looks him in the eyes "I'm sincerely sorry for not acting like an adult and being continually hostile towards you and your practices and I'm sorry you coulden't get your answers...it's not that I hate you, it's just I don't understand anything you do or say an being thrown into a situation like this has me on edge. Frankly, it scares me because most of it is taboo in my land if that's any reason you'll accept." With a moment of hesitation he takes off his right gauntlet and offer's his hand to Rey. "I need you to work me to save our two friends that are now in great danger we will bury the head after. But, right now we have to deal with the living before the dead and I need your skills to get us through this. So, how are we going to save them?" As he finishes talking he smiles and waits for Rey to shake his hand back. What ever happens Dethrial just smiles places his gauntlet back on to his hand and heads back into the hallway.
Dethral walks over Sirius and bows his head, kneels down next to her and speaks in a low tone. "Don't worry, We'll get him back safe and sound. He must mean a lot to you and I'll make no judgements but I promise to get him back to you. Now, this is also very off topic and the rest can wait till later, I'm sorry for treating you like a person and it makes me feel like a real monster for treating the way I did." With nothing else to say Dethrial stands up and waits for the others to make a move while placing his helm on his head and stands tall.

Sirius watches Dethrial as he makes his curious apology. "For treating me like a human being? 'Suppose I'm not." She cocks her head in slight confusion and then looks back at Jen, deciding she was more worried about her friend than anything else. Worst case scenario she'd drag him back to recudor - to his parents. But he wasn't the type to give up so easily, and there was very little reason to believe anything was seriously wrong. About that time Selene comes by to prop him up a bit and ask her the half-question.
Sirius shakes her head. "...clean..." she bites her lip a little. "...sick blood causes convulsions..." she blushes and scratches her neck awkwardly.
With two of their members out cold the group is left to figure out how to proceed from here. Fortunately it appears that some of the guests below are beginning to wake, albeit somewhat confused. They all carry an expression of loss somehow, as if they had been happy dreaming and now woke up to face the reality of their situation.

Selene's head slowly turns to Rey with confusion. "You know nothing of healing magic, or first aid but you're asking to help?" She looks at him slightly dumbfounded, but thankful that SOMEONE was willing to assist her. "Judging by his pulses there isn't much wrong." She pauses. "I think?" She says in a blatant questioning tone. "I don't actually know what I'm dealing with here. So I don't even know if I'm helping him in any way." Then she hears Dethrial answer her request. Completely ignoring the concept of safety. "You want to get somewhere safe in an unknown area with everyone." She raises her hands. "Asleep" She air quotes that. "And you want to move two unconscious people with no idea whats wrong with them? Are you stupid?" She looks up at him wanting more than anything to yell at him, but she can't. "These two aren't moving." She says again checking Jen's pulse. Which by this time has returned to a somewhat normal state.
Sirius answers her with a somewhat broken sentence. "Sick blood...?" She tilts her head thinking. "Poison? A drug of sort?" She taps her lips with her finger."Hmmm...So it was something in the food? Does anyone remember what the person who brought us dinner looks like?" She looks at the four. "They might know something. She left ear shifts towards the hall. Then her head with a surprised look on her face. "Hey others are waking up!" Just then her stomach growls. Her gaze shifts back to Jen and she mouths (you son of a bitch) to his unconscious body. She points at Rey. "You want to help? Stay her for a second. I'LL go down stairs and ask around because SOMEONE HERE!" She looks at Dethrial. "Doesn't want to play point man." She gazes at him sharply before grabbing her gun from her bag and stepping past him. "Lets no one else in the room." She points to Rey. "You understand?" (After her answers she will run down the hall)

Reymondo stares at Dethrial's outstretched hand, the man's words still going through his head. Rey grabs his hand and shakes it, but he doesn't let it go right away. "Yes, you are not from this land. Whoever that doesn't excuse you from your actions. What I do IS a bit taboo, however no one else here has been freaking out or shown me the business end of their weapon. You need to grow some thicker skin. I will forgive your actions that have happened. However you are going to pay for the door you broke..." He lets go of Dethrial's hand.
Rey then walks to Selene and waits for her to answer him. He couldn't help but let out a small sigh when she pretty much points out how useless he is in this situation. "Yes, Even though I can't do anything of the things you said, but if you can. I am here to offer a hand in any way." He then crouches down next to her and listens to what she says. Rey then shakes his head when Selene talks about the food being poisoned. "It couldn't of been the food or drinks. Sirius, Lyn, nor my partner Enkidu didn't eat anyone of the food here. So that rules that out. It has to be some sort of magic." He says. Rey sees that Selene is about to leave, so he tries to grab her arm to stop her. "Hold up." He points down past the railing to the people below. "They are all waking up. I really don't think they will know anything seeing how it affected them as well." He says while rubbing his chin as he thinks. "I guess some of them could of been faking in order to blend in...Ether way, we need to think of a way to wake them up. I don't know any de-spells to try." He looks around to the others. "Do any of you?"

Dethrial lets his helmet hide a smile as he pieces together what a strangely bashful Sirius said and took a moment to think. So there is something between them...this reminds me of what happend in Relzandant albeit those two were a bit more normal. So, Rey has a bit more honor than I thought. I still need to be wary but he's just like Carmine a lot of pride in a small body and just as dangerous. Something is up with Selene. Her urgency with trying to separate me from the others is reminding me of Kami and I don't know that power or capabilities of that gun...I need to watch her more carefully from now on. Selene was busy talking but it was more like talking at everyone as most of it was insults or rebuffs. Dethrial made no move after Selene was done talking and waited till he was moving down stairs before turning to the others and answering Rey. "I don't know what a de-spell is but I'm going to assume is some form of counter spell or disenchantment...I'm most most magically inclined unless it's metal or mode from the earth, sorry." Dethrial waits for a moment for the people waking up listing for other's with sleeping companions. After Selene leaves Dethrial removes his face plate and looks at the others. "What do you want to do? I'm not into the idea of staying here any longer than we have to and I'm completely against leaving J and Jen alone for any reason. I wanna get my people out of the line of fire but I'm not sure where the shots are coming from, ya know what I mean?"
Dethrial then bites his lip as he thinks "The closest thing I've seen to this is a gas shell filled with Widow's Veil" Dethrail quickly explains while looking at the ground. "It's a poison gas that stops your hear in a matter of seconds with causing damage to the body and makes it look like your just sleeping...lost a lot of friends to it." Knowing a sad look as spread across his face Dethrial replaces his face plate and moves his gaze from the ground to Lyn. "You're pretty knowledgeable and maybe the most magically inclined besides Rey, would you have any ways of fixing this or figuring out who did?" Realizing he left out Sirius Dethrial crouches down to speak to her in a warm tone. "You also seem to have lots of magical capabilities and if you could help that would be of great assistance to both Jen and the rest of us."

Sirius shakes her head as she is addressed in regards to magic. She looks down to a pouch on her hip and shakes her head. "...i can't use magic.." Though Lyn doesn't seem to be much help either; "My magic is designed around Charms and Glamours. I wouldn't know any spells to wake them if this really is magic at work." she ponders for a moment, pursing her lips as she thinks and leans against the nearest wall with her arms crossed.
"If it was a sleeping spell I would have felt it yesterday. Or when Jen collapsed for that matter..." She continues to think.
A little bit of time passes and she finally thinks of something. "Ah!" she exclaims and raises a finger in the air. "I know... why don't you ask someone at the academy? You mentioned yesterday having some business there, anyway, right Reymondo?" Sirius nods in agreement. She then pulls out a rock the size of her fist out of her pocket that is inscribed with various runes. "...we can make sure these two are safe..." she says and casually throws the rock on the ground. It glows briefly and then grows into a small rock golem about half her size that immediately begins patrolling circles around the rooms interior. Sirius gives it a mock salute.
Lyn interjects, briefly, however; "I was hoping to go to the academy as well. There are some things I'd like to see."

Selene shuffles down the hall. He footsteps almost silent as she moves. It doesn't take her long to reach the end, but her ears shift forth and back in the direction of the doors she passes. Trying to hear any sort of movement. Some of the rooms have slight noise, but mostly people groggily waking up. Or so they might be acting. A potential she isn't ruling out. She reaches the stairs and looms over them slightly. Pulling her ears down to not give away her position. She scans the area. Within a few seconds she has seen everyone she can see down in the main hall. Some waking some not, but no one looking suspiciously around to see if anyone is looking. "No one seems out of the ordinary from the wake up." She whispers to herself. No one scanning the room either. Her eyes narrow. She sighs feeling slightly defeated from the situation itself. "I knew this wasn't going to be easy, but still. Its irritating." She grumbles. If they want to move them now WOULD be the time. If something happens I told them. She scuttles back to the room. Picking up the end of the conversation halfway down the hall. About the academy.
Her heart flutters with excitement for a brief moment at the thought of going there. She wanted to see it, but she didn't think she would get the chance with everything. She gets to the door. Her mind serious, but she can't help but show a whimsical smile at the thought of visiting it. "I-If you guys want to move..." She looks down the hall. "Now would be the time." She turns her head back in the groups direction. She however doesn't make eye contact. Her eyes rest at the bottom of the door frame. Though she was attempting to help. She felt like she had done something wrong. Maybe pressed the situation a little to much. Maybe...there wasn't anything wrong. She thinks. Thats what I thought...thats what...we...thought. Her mind drifts back to the deaths of her friends. All still very recent. Her head wells up with tension as she fights back the urge to cry. She turns away and looks down the hall. Clearing her throat and wiping the tear, but does it in a way as if she was scratching an itch. "I'll take point if need be."

Reymondo lets out a sigh when Selene darts off and he is unable to stop her. he keeps a close eye on her while he listens to what the others are saying. He nods when he hears Sirius bring up that he wanted to go back to the academy. "Yes, I need to go visit Kaavi once again before we make our way to find Winters. She deserves an update as to what has happened..." Rey then stops and looks at Dethrial, thinking to himself if he should bring up what else he has planned with the professor. "Do you really think he is going to change?" Rey looks to his left to see Mitsuko leaning next to the wall closest to Hammer. "Do you honestly believe that he is going to be accepting of the fact that you want to being a demon into this world? The others in this rag tag group probably would care, just so long as it doesn't effect them in a negative way." Rey nods in agreement. "You're probably right." He then looks back at the rest of the group. "I also have some other business with Kaavi that I need done before we leave. I may not get another chance after all."
Reymondo then watches Siris make two mini rock golems, he couldn't help but be impressed by that. He has always loved magic that could bring anything to life. He then looks at Siris. "Wow, that is really good! I am unfamiliar with golems however. Are they able to lift our friends and carry them or are they only able to attack and defend?"
When Selene returns to the group, Enkidu walks over to her side once again. He looks up at her and sees her wiping away tears. A jester he has seen Rey do before in the past. Wanting to comfort the only other person that has been nice to him, he makes a concerned cluck and moves in front of her. Wanting her to see that he wants to cheer her up.
Rey looks over and is a bit surprised to see his partner showing signs that he cares about anyone other than himself. He was caught in the middle of being happy that the bird trusts someone other than him, however he couldn't help but feel a tad jealous as well. Enkidu has been traveling with him for over two years now and has never shown any affection to anyone other than himself. "You know, it is a bit sad that you feel that way about a bird" Mitsuko says as she watches. "It's just a damn bird. Who cares if it wants to be with someone else." Rey frowns at her but decides not to reply to her. "I take it you didn't see anything out of the ordinary Selene? I am also not sure if we can leave. I'm not sure if I would be able to carry one of them for very long. As much as I want to leave for the academy, I don't want to just leave them here ether."

Dethrial cocks an eyebrow at the golem and then looks back to Sirius. What do you call that then? I won't push it right now. It also looks like a bunch of them want to go back to that school but I can't leave these two by themselves. Dethrial though for a moment and after formulating a plan he put his hands on his knees and stood up. "So, we don't have a lot of options but here's a plan. First, we move Jen into the room and have two people stay here to guard them, I would say Sirius and I as we or more I stick out like how do you say it "A sore thumb". Next, you guys could go to the school and find someone to help as Winters is out of our reach for now and Rey can find his summoning expert and get what he needs, you know the two birds on stone thing?." Dethrial hoping that Rey would understand nods to him. "Finally, after you guys find what you need or get someone to help you make your way back here and we can all decide on what to do next." After a moment Something else comes to Dethrial's mind. "I know Rey has an AQL but do any of you have one as well so we can communicate if we do split up?" He looks towards the others for responses or affirmation of his plan.
Dethrial takes off his helm and stores it in his pack before turning to Lyn and asking her kindly "Your charms can make people see things that are not real and to a way make then believe that they are real. Do you think you could make a charm to make the door appear to still be there? I realize I was a rash and rushed into that but we need some good cover for now." Weather or not Lyn can create the charm Dethrial is already looking at the door frame and door seeing if he could fix the damage and if the damage is to severe He'll turn to Sirius and ask "Hey, do you have anything that could fix this? And for a slightly diffrent note do I have to be careful of you're golem?" Dethrial is keeping a smile the whole time trying to alleviate any unease as he walks back to Jen ready to pick him up if the majority agrees with his plan.

When Rey asks Sirius whether or not the golems could carry one of the bodies she shrugs. "...why would you want to...?"
Lyn shakes her head at Dethrials request. "I'm quite sorry but my charms only apply to people not objects. It's not really the same as making them imagine things... but perhaps more like... making them believe that what they are seeing is pleasant in some way. Acceptable, and fine." She purses her lips a little. "If anyone were to come by, they wouldn't mind, as long as I stay out here in the hallway."
The small Golem meanwhile trots through the room while stopping at each corner to take a clunky 90 degree turn to then continue its route around the place. Sirius watches it feeling like any other time she would indulge in the cuteness of the thing but she can't help but worry for her travel partner. Dethrial then asks her his question and she shakes her head. "...only against signs of aggression..." she then pulls more stones out of her pocket - small shiny sapphire gems, in fact - and hands them to Dethrial. "...crack them against a surface...creates a barrier..."
(If dethrial cracks one of the crystals against a surface they will shatter and dissipate and leave behind a seal on the wall.)

Selene blinks a few times to clear her eyes. "No I didn't see anything strange, but that doesn't mean something or someone isn't there waiting. I understand your concern though...for the others." She looks back into the room to see a mid sized rock creature walking the walls of the room. Seeing it walk to a corner and turning and walking again reminded her of the patrols she preformed when she was younger. She began to smile as she remember her friends and the stupid things they would do out on missions to pass the time at the camps they would set up. This however was followed up by the pressure of tears. She could feel her face heat up as blood flowed to it turning it red. Mostly around her eyes and cheeks. She felt her throat begin to close up from her emotions when she heard the cluck of Rey's chicken at her feet. She smiles at it with quivering lips as she roughly chokes down her pain. She ruffles with her bag and puts away her rifle. She kneels down. Tears streaming down her face from the pressure build up. "Hello Mr Cluckles." She whimpers as quietly as she can. "You're so adorable." She tilts her head and picks him up. She gently pets him and snuggles him against her chest. "Come on Mr. Cluckles. Lets go keep an eye out till everyone decides on what they want to do." She looks back into the room. "We are going down the hall to keep watch." She said. Her voice still rough from fighting back tears. "If anything happens I'll let you guys now. Keep an ear out though." She looks down the hall, but turns her head slightly back to the room for one last glance. She then lowers her head looking at the ground and walks down the hall.
