[ accidental video | canon update! ]

[second_star]

[ The video feed opens up to a messy room. Yuri, Estelle, and now a new young boy were standing there, having a look around, when... ]

[ ooc: from the beginning till 3:35. Basically, the blastia thief Yuri had been chasing (which got him thrown into prison, which lead to him being in the castle, and which basically is his whole reason for traveling right now) is said to live in this house. Only, the mage there isn't them. And turns out the name they were using was fake all along. She offers to take them to the ruins, where their may be clues on the blastia thief, and considering it's either that or getting chased by the knights again, Yuri takes her up on it.

Replies oocly, as usual, to come a few hours later. ]

What are you looking for?

[denies]

... Your group sure is growing in size. Soon everyone might start thinking you have a huge group of friends.

[second_star]

Friends is not the word I'd use for these guys.

[second_star]

The Aque blastia core. It was stolen from the Lower quarter. We thought the thief would be here, but guess not.

[denies]

It might look that way to any outsider though, regardless of your own opinion.

[mightletyouknowme]

Does that have to do with water?

[second_star]

It helped run the fountain. Without it, the fountain basically breaks, and floods the town.

[second_star]

Trust me, once I get the aque blastia, I'm heading back.

[omnomsgods]

...You're traveling all over the place, huh?

[mightletyouknowme]

Why don't they just change the type of town? Islands can be fun.

[second_star]

[ What the hell...? ]

Uh....buildings and roads aren't easy to make.

[second_star]

Not exactly what I first planned, but hey, what can you do?

[omnomsgods]

You can... not travel with them.

[mightletyouknowme]

No, ditches and trenches are easier. You said the cores were hard to get, didn't you?

[second_star]

Karol knows more about the guilds than the rest of us. Plus he's been around. Estelle isn't exactly an indoors person, I wouldn't trust her to try and find Flynn on her own. And Rita just kinda threw herself at us after proving herself innocent.

No way I can really avoid it at the moment. I don't mind, I guess.

[second_star]

Well yeah. That's why I'm going to find this guy and kick his ass. Then bring it back. We can't really afford to buy another, that one cost us the Lower Quarter just about everything we had.

Love that icon

[mightletyouknowme]

That's why I was offering a second solution, in case you don't find him.

Why would they need them in the ruins, anyway?

[omnomsgods]

[ Her expression falls as he speaks. ] Unyu... if those are the people in the video... I didn't pay attention to it.

Yeah it's my favorite out of all of his PFFT

[second_star]

Apparently, it's not just one thief. It's a group that's been hired by someone else. I have no idea what they're stealing cores for, there were more in the ruins.

Besides, that second solution is WAY too impractical.

[mightletyouknowme]

What's impractical about digging ditches to lead the water away?!

[second_star]

We don't have the kind of tools for that, you ever tried digging through solid and concrete? And we can't dig outside of the barrier, that's dangerous.

[second_star]

...

Anyway, we decided to stick together until we found Flynn and the Aque blastia. We won't be splitting up, in the mean time.

[mightletyouknowme]

I'd thought it would be dirt.

Aren't you outside of it?

[second_star]

I am. I can fight, so the monsters aren't a problem for me. I'm talking about everyone else back home.

[omnomsgods]

Hoh! The real Flynn?!
