" Brave Vesperia is our guild, me, Raven's, Yuri's, and Judith's. " Karol said and spoke again. " We are the guild who saved the world from a man named Duke, we were also the cause of having to take away blastia. " He finished.

Razulen was now even more confused then she was a moment ago. Judith? Guild? Duke? Blastia? She didn't know what these things were, or who these people really were. Ruffling her hair around in frustration, she threw her arms up in the air.
"Agh! I don't know any of these things! I must be on another planet or something...there is no way this can be Tethe'alla. Which means... You're all aliens!"
Razulen chuckled a little bit at her own joke, but knew in all seriousness this was not her home world. Everything smelled, looked, and felt different. The people dressed weird, and things were going on she had no knowledge of.
"Can you guys tell me what world this is? I seem to be in over my head a little."

They kept their pace quick as they could, making their way along the well-traveled path to Halure. The only thing to stop them was the occasional realization that they took a wrong turn (this was mostly Droite's fault, so said Gauche), or the interruption of monsters that prowled the world constantly (Droite refused to take the blame for this) and sometimes to rest from the events of the day and its toll on them (they said nothing to each other about this). Neither of these nor other small bumps on the road proved to be much of a hassle or hindrance, as they were easily overcome each time. Soon, judging by the position of the sun and the gnawing pain of hunger beginning to grow in their stomachs, their travels to the blossoming city took were nearly over as they made their way into the outskirts of it topping over three hours of travel.
"It doesn't change, does it?" Droite murmured to herself, craning her neck to see the spot at the top of the tree where it seemed to touch the heavens. The petals were still pink and in bloom from when they came here last. What a tree!
"Except in the winter," was Gauche's reply, earning a frown from her sister. She was tired, and perhaps a bit cranky from it. All she wanted was a meal, to sleep and find Lilly. Everything to could w-
Gauche stopped in her tracks, frozen to the spot, though Droite failed to notice. "Well, anyway," she started, obviously trying to brush aside her twins' attitude just a second ago, "do you know where this Lilly is now?" After a pause, she realized that Gauche wasn't going to answer and looked over at her, following her gaze. It lend her to a group, a few of were weird in appearance but there were those she recognized at once. "Brave... Vesperia? They're here, too?" Man, they sure got around...
"Looks like Lilly's with them."
"Really? Which one?" Gauche then gave a brief description of the girl several feet away from them, from her hair to her uniform. The latter of which reminded Gauche of the local inn's own uniform, which she relayed to Droite as well. Droite nodded in understanding. So, this was she. "...How long are we gonna stand here?" she asked, after another bout of pausing.
"As much as I'd like to go over there-"
"You're nervous?" Droite grinned cheekily.
"No," Gauche was quick to correct, "I'm tired, and frankly, I've had more that my fair share of Brave Vesperia today."
"So, what? We're gonna stand here the rest of the day until they leave?" The question was entirely rhetorical; not that Droite gave her sister a chance to answer. "Come on, I'm tired, too. But if, like you said, looks like we see the person we're looking for and she seems to work for the inn. One of these things we can't ignore." With that, Droite flashed her twin a look that said she was waiting for a retort.
"...Fine," Gauche said at last, defeated. Droite, the triumphant one, made her way over to the haphazard group. Gauche reluctantly followed.
" 'Scuse me, but are you by any chance Lilly?" She asked, just in case. Oh, who knows, her sister might've been mistaken and forgetful. For once.
Gauche casually observed the crowd around them, just a few inches behind her sister. Controlling all her urges to say anything in the direction of Brave Vesperia, though she didn't hesitate raise a brow when one female asked where she was. Tethe'alla? She'd never heard of the place. "This is Terca Lumireis, not- ...Yuri Lowell?" She had started to inform the woman, but cut herself short when she finally noticed someone who, by all accounts, she didn't imagine seeing again.
This was not her day.

So, there were other worlds after all. Ones besides her own home, and this new place she called home. A moment she took, to ponder if all from this other world looked like this girl. Dismissing her thoughts as rude, she also began to explain more to the ever present questions.
"It is true, as you say, if you are from this other world. This world is known as Terca Lumiries. How peculiar that more than two of our worlds are connected, now." she said, her uniform slightly drooping at her shoulder from the quick turn of her head to see exactly what she thought she heard. It would appear she had company. Company in the form of two young women, one of which she knew, and the other she did not. Knowing the fire haired girl, however, was something that was enough to answer her questions about whom exactly the grass haired girl was, and this led her to visibly smile, if only briefly.
Briefly is all she would allow.
"Ah, you must be Droite. Your sister has told me of you. How may I assist the two of you today?" she asked, almost a robotic voice creeping itself into her mouth. She was caught in a mix between her work voice and her friendly voice, the combination of which must have sounded very excitedly robotic. She then heard her old companion say a name, to which she would have laughed had she felt the ability to do so.
"You are mistaken in this instance, my lady. I believe the eldest of this party confirmed her to be the sister of Yuri Lowell," she coughed slightly and gripped her shoulder, if only for a moment, before continuing, "Luria was her name, yes?"

Well, Droite was glad that her sister had mentioned her to one point to Lilly, since that put aside the usually awkward first greetings and general questions as to who in hell's name she was. As such, Droite allowed herself the smallest sigh of relief, then glanced over to Gauche who was still staring at this not-Yuri. At least until she was corrected about the real identity of this person.
"His... sister." It came out flat; a simple statement. She never heard anything about that, but she supposed that it wasn't entirely improbable. But even so, this Luria's resemblance was unnerving. Every contour of her face was the same, except for a touch of femininity to it. If, perhaps, she was not already tired by their day's journey, she would've investigated the matter further. But that would have to be for later. "Lilly?" she moved closer to the other female, upon noticing her cough.
Sadly, it was partly unsurprising for her. The battle some months ago had left her body still weak, even after bed rest, so. "I dunno about helping us, per se..." Droite said, picking up the previous question as easily as a stone. Really, part of her wanted to get this over with.
But before continuing on any further... "No offense, though" she said, with a quick glance around the odd group around them, "but is there somewhere we can talk that's private?" Maybe it was just her, but she didn't think this was something that should be publicly discussed. Luckily, Gauche seemed to agree with her, and nodded to show so.

"Halure. Right place, I guess."
Twitching silver fox ears danced across silver hair, carried in the wind by the speed of the auburn haired horse being ridden into town, its black mane flowing. On it was a small boy, twelve years old at most. Green jacket, tan cargo pants, black boots, and silver hair.
Anyone who knew the Crusaders knew those features.
"So, let's see here..."
Taking a sugar cube from his bag, Heath made his way into the flowered town with every bit of trouble blending in. Most people had never seen his kind before; then again, his kind was from another world. And in that other world, he was already dead. An alternate reality, as if by some divine prank, allowed this Heath to not know the fate of the other, or even of his existence. Saoirse must have been very bored.
Or it was Zephyrus.
Taking out a map, he began to walk without looking, straight ahead.
Further.
His horse being pulled steadily behind him. The majestic animals always struck a fancy with him, and so he owned one that he went everywhere with.
Further.
Bump, right into a green haired woman. The force of the bump was only slightly awkward, as the horse stopped when Heath began to catch himself falling back.
"Sorry, my bad."
Strange, how striking his resemblance to June was. Minus the fox parts. Even in height and hair style, from the back he looked very much like her.
And before he could even walk away, his horse stopped to eat some vegetation, leaving hi still within conversation range.

Before they had a chance to hear the redhead's answer, Droite felt someone bump into her. It was not, by any means, anything that sent her stumbling backwards or forwards. To her credit, she did have some degree of balance. It only upset her footing mildly. "Watch where you're going!" she tossed over her shoulder, with a glance. Which was all it took for her to do a double-take at the stranger (or maybe not) with their back to her.
Without realizing it, she took a step forward with her hand outstretched. "Are you-" she started to ask, unaware of Gauche's dubious look behind her.
It took another moment for her to realize that this person, however familiar they might be, couldn't (wasn't...) who she thought they were. The ears were her first hint, though by the time she realized this, her hand was already on the stranger's shoulder. But she quickly withdrew it all the same, with a quick apology included. "Sorry, thought you were someone else. My bad."
Looks like she and Gauche were seeing all sorts of ghosts and doppelgangers today.

His expression was more or less unaffected, as he was letting his horse eat before they moved on. The girl went from seemingly rude, to confused, to apologetic. an odd mix, but he'd roll with it.
"Must have. I'm the only one of my kind here."
The only one of his kind. Now where had she heard that before?
"I'm Heath, by the way. Heath Kohma. Sorry if I seem rushed. Kinda got a heavy schedule."
His eyes shifted back to his map. It was a detailed illustration of the planet, labeled and marked properly, with one twist; everything on it seemed to be marked with a symbol unfamiliar. A family crest, actually. He was marking those himself, as if to say 'these are the places I've been'. He was looking for a way home. Back to Neganite.
"You wouldn't happen to know any interdimensional portals would yo-- Lil?"
That's when he saw hew.
"How'd you end up on this planet too? Last time I saw you, you were still a baby. Then again, so was I. How's uncle Kunai? Aunt Aeon?"
((Lilly's asleep, so let's just autopilot her character.))

Only one of his kind was the understatement of the year. The ears, the tail... none of these were things normal people had. But given the amount of oddities that today had brought, she might have thought it to be another sign of hell freezing over. Well, were it not for the fact that he coupled that statement with his name. It caused her to blink, wondering where she heard it before.
Luckily, Gauche was the one with a keener memory. Before Lilly had the chance to answer back Heath, she took the initiative. "Heath Kohma... as in June's father?" but even as she asked that, she wondered how it could be true. This Heath seemed to young to be a father to anyone, much less anyone June's age.
"What, c'mon, Gauche, that's insane. I don't even think he's gone through puberty!" Sometimes, Gauche wished her sister voiced both their thoughts with more... tact.
(( xD; Hope this is alright, Dai. If not, I can do it over... ))

Razulen took a little bit of time to think. Okay, so this WASN'T her home world by any means. In fact, it was an entirely new world with a beautiful name to boot! Terca Lumireis. The entire concept tingled every inch of Raz's curious nature. Granted, she didn't know anything about this splendiforous world! Everyone around her seemed to know well enough about it's history, and the places here. While it would be smart to talk and travel with them, Raz thought it would also be boring. On top of it all, if some of them are well traveled, they wouldn't want to go with her! After all, seeing something you've already seen many times before probably wasn't fun. So, Razulen had a problem. If she couldn't explore it with the people who did know much about this place, then who could she travel with? Tapping her chin a bit, she then looked over at the girl she was curious about earlier.
Ah, yes! If she couldn't travel with someone who was knowledgeable, why not make new adventures and friends with someone who was just as ignorant of this world! Stepping over to Luria, she smiled a bit and patted her on the head.
"Come on, Luria, let's have some fun!"
It was then that she picked the girl up in her arms, bridal style, and leaped high into the air. The thing is, she didn't fall back down. Instead, she rose up even further. The strange wing structures attached to her back began flapping as she rose up into the air.
"Sorry, but, all this talk is so boring! I'm off to have fun with my new friend here. I'll be sure to bring her back~!"
With that, she began flying off out of Halure at a rather rapid pace. She had no idea where she was going, but that was the fun of it all! Seeing new things, exploring places you've never been to, meeting new people! She had this all planned out...sort of.

Luria gave a squeak of fright as she was hoisted up. As she rose higher and higher, it became very scary to her to see this perspective of the world. The people she knew were so small from here. And the one holding her was... Not human. She couldn't speak, think critically, or signal for help as she had no idea how. What fate awaited her?
From the ground, the blue haired Krityan watched her daughter get flown away by some mysterious woman. She smiled and yawned, breaking the ice for the others who were probably afraid at this point. Or at the very least, worried for their friend whom had just been abducted.
Vera knew, though, that the experience was worthwhile in the end.
Heath blinked, and pat the girl on the shoulder whom had accused him of being a father.
"Nonono... I'm twelve. Why would I have a kid"
He let himself laugh a little before a look of terror came across his eyes. His horse responded by kicking powerfully behind them, effectively spooked by Heath's emotional change.
"Wait a minute... If for every day here there are ten on my world... According to Drey anyway... I've been away from home for five hundred years!"
He may have blurted that out, just a LITTLE too loud.
But it was true, his dimension moved faster. Not because the days were shorter but because of space-time.
"I guess, if Drey's split timeline theory is correct, I could be a father in my world right now. But that was just storybook stuff! Like what you read to babies!"
His horse nudged him with its nose, and neighed.
"But... Let's say for a minute that I AM this girl's father in the split timeline. How would you two know her? Are you also from my world?"

Things were getting, to say the least, a little crazy. Well, not that they weren't already... but the point remains. "I don't know," Droite sighed, with an added shrug. "But that's what we heard from June. About her father, I mean." Her forehead was starting to throb from a growing headache at all this confusion. It was made all the worse as the boy's... whatever that was started to freak out behind him. That, and he looked completely terrified.
"...Come again?" Gauche, for all her intellect, couldn't even hide her confusion at what Heath was saying. Things like split timeline theories were far beyond her understanding. She preferred what she thought was practical information, such as how to fight with a rapier or keep yourself cloaked in the shadows. What Heath was saying seemed more like it belonged in Aspio with the scholars.
Well, in any case... "No, we're not. We're from this world. Terca Lumireis," Gauche answered, upon noticing Droite's own hesitation to. Quickly, and yet still detailed, Gauche went onto explain how they met June, albeit with some things left obscure. Such as their first meeting, as that might not be the best thing to mention to someone they just met. But still, the rest was the same. How she came to defeat Skade as the last of her kind, how they had teamed up briefly, and Skade's assault. In truth, it wasn't a long tale, but even so...
Gauche finally hesitated towards the end, however. How was she to tell him, out in public, that this possible daughter was dead? No... "Well, that's not all, but as my sister said, the rest isn't for public ears. If you wouldn't mind, we should move indoors." Not only would he need a chair for this, but Lilly might need it, too.

((Ghosting Lilly with us until she gets her butt online))
The horse sneezed and shook it's head, and Heath gave the two a quizzical stare.
"He doesn't like the sound of that. Let's talk outside of town, somewhere he can go."
As if retracing his steps, he gently walked his horse back with him, back to the entrance of town, his cousin following. He fully expected the twins to follow, since he knew they were serious. After all, if they weren't, he wouldn't have sensed Kohma on them. One of them either has a Soul Blade, has a pendant, or is his relative. He'd hoped for the second to be true, because one of them having a Soul Blade would be catastrophic for whomever needed it.
He tugged at his own pendant, and then ghosted a hand to his hip. those two items that without them, he'd be dead...
The horse neighed loudly, signaling that at least Lilly had followed, and possibly the others.
"Easy, Blitz. They can't touch me. Not while you're around."
something tugged at his curiosity though. This eroded landscape, the large tree in the middle and all. It all reminded him of the other world he went to. Were all worlds except his own represented by large trees of life?
His world's life force was given by the Goddess Saoirse. He'd never met her, but he knew his father had. Daisuke had done everything.
How could he live up to his father's reputation?
As if he'd heard them approach, and sat down on a log and put a hand to his chin.
"Alright, this should be far enough. Tell me what you know."

Raven looked around, listening as everyone spoke. Without saying a word, he snuck away, trying to get away with no one noticing. He walked off, getting bored back there.
Karol looked around, noticing that Raven wasn't there anymore. " Raven!? Gah, there he goes again. " He sighed, as he looked at everyone. [[ Fail post is fail ]]

Heath, Droite decided, must be some kind of powerful if he didn't even seem remotely concerned about being out in the open, outside of town. Or maybe he was just new to this world. One of the two, she figured. But this thought was quickly shoved away as they were prompted to spill the final part of their tale.
Again, Droite hesitated, but Gauche would always be there to pick up the slack. "Approximately three hours earlier," Gauche began, in a tone that her sister recognized as the one she delivered reports with. Aloof, professional and completely untouchable. "Just as the three of us were to leave Zaphias, the capital of the Empire, we were met by a woman named Arceia outside the city gates." And from there, with little delay, she told the rest.
Which, of course, meant the death of the two (three? They hadn't stuck around to see if that other strange woman had survived or not) women was now known. "We left after her burial, and were also entrusted with this," it was here she pulled out the pendent, which was still warm even though it hadn't been exposed to sunlight in a while. "Unfortunately, I'm not one for sentiments, or whatever it was Commandant Flynn was trying to do when he gave this to us."
"Though, it is pretty," Droite added, quietly.
With a subtle roll of her eyes, Gauche handed the bauble to Droite for the moment. Oh, honestly. "We were originally headed here for various reasons, but I didn't think messengers would be added to our tasks," she concluded, with the tiniest of grimaces on her face. The crinkles at the corners of her eyes as they narrowed, her brows meeting, pointed, on her forehead...
"And we didn't expect meeting someone like you, either," Droite felt the need to add, fiddling with the pendent slightly.
