Veda recognized the tension between the two, confused as to why the dragon slayer and the elf were acting so strange. Zoey was obviously trying to make space between the two, but as Veda heard Kyns remove the armor open up and step out, she was astonished at the metal contraption. Veda saw the other whisper and was nervous not knowing what Zoey had done to upset the powerful figure. 'What in the world could Zoey have done to upset Kyns? Oh... hopefully he doesn't know about her being in the Enigma?' She thought, trying the see if Zoey was trying to signal them to leave or something of the sort. Veda stood once the two began to seeming to ‘casually’ talk, so her suspicion of them needed to leave immediately was dismissed, and inspected the armor quite surprised. “Oh! You are giving a speech tomorrow right?” She said recalling the announcement as they walked to the shack earlier. Once the two started talking about their equipment she zoned out, starting to wonder around the room, making sure not to touch anything despite the temptation. She saw the many papers with inventions and tools, along with little notes here and there, she was quite interested with Vamba's home.

Zoey gave an acknowledging nod to the already pissed off dragon slayer. She sighed, gave up and sat down next to Kyns. Turning to Veda she tried to signal her that everything was alright but Veda seemed complexly zoned out. She looked back to the dragon slayer and, after an awkward moment she said. "Kyns...we don't have to enemies." she said, hoping to break the tension. "Joseph wanted to kill you for the honor of it. I...i was in the wrong place at the wrong time." she paused. "I shouldn't have said this much." she said shaking her head looking at Kyns He could have killed me the second he walked in. So why didn't he? she thought, wondering if he'd believe her.

Kyns





Kyns frowned at the mention of a speech. "Yep....I have to do a rally..." He says. Then, a long period of awkward silence ensued. Finally, The elf spoke up. "Kyns...we don't have to enemies. Joseph wanted to kill you for the honor of it. I...i was in the wrong time." The woman paused. As if reflecting on what she just said. "I shouldn't have said this much." She said, shaking her head. Kyns put a hand to his chin and pondered for a moment. "Okay look, I consider myself a reasonable man...and if what you say is true...I guess I can forgive you...." Kyns says, putting out a hand. He sighs. "Friends?" He asks hesitantly.





@Drakeel
 
Zoey smiled at his offer of friendship. "What am I supposed to do, say no?" She said in a more light hearted and jokey tone while extending her arm. "Kyns Arvos, it would great to be friends." She said smiling. "I'm Zoey, Zoey Redshard." She added after realizing he couldn't possibly know her name. She turned and smiled to Veda as well


@SpookySpecter @Fawnking
 
Veda glanced at the pair once they shook hands, glad they were on better terms. She soon stopped looking around Vambas area and pulled a chair up to the two. " So we are alright now, yes?" She said, smiling at the two " Now tell us about this meeting and your speech tommorow!" She said towards the Dragon slayer.
 
Kyns





Kyns smiled at Zoey and her friend, who he still didn't know the name of. "Glad to know you don't want me dead Zoey, what's your friend's name?" Kyns asked, looking at the woman that pulled a seat up."The meeting? Well...that's confidential...i'm not really aloud to say anything about the that...but I can tell you about the speech." Kyns said, taking off his bandoleer to disarm himself, and show that he's letting his guard down. "Tomorrow, Binbig is going to begin massing together an army to fight the Crimson Bitch!" Kyns said excitedly. "It's the first army Binbig has ever had, and i'm in charge of rallying the people for it. I have no idea what i'm gonna say..so...I think i'll just wing it. Do some fist pumps and see where it goes." Kyns says laughing. Suddenly, Vamba could be heard from downstairs. "IT'S ALMOST DONE!!! WANNA TAKE A LOOK?" The old dwarf yelled from the basement.





@Drakeel @Fawnking


 
“Well that’s at least the easiest and prettiest translation. Yeah, just something simple, but I threw a lot of energy into it haha. Pleasure to meet you! I like your name too.” He looks confusedly at her hand. “Where is your name mark? Oh, that’s a cool name too.” He smiles at Vinn too then looks back as she asks about it. “Oh, sure, I thought these were pretty simple, I mean PAPA always did far more complex things, but I’m still learning how to fine tune it. What would you like to learn about first? I’m not sure how much I can talk about myself though, PAPA said to only tell those I can trust what I am … but I can trust you right?” You get a look which reminds you of a puppy begging for scraps, or a child hoping for a hug. “Oh, right, I forgot that people aren’t used to this.” He unwraps the slung cloth and shows you the rune engraved scale-like slivers of gem, gears made of odd metals, and other various parts which all align in the broken joint. He points to a small chip of gem which has a rune that is cracked down the middle. “This is the part that broke, if I can repair that my arm can attach right, until then I’m down two of my cores. So that means I will have to re-boot far more often.” He looks up when Vinn says this. “Wait, which side of the mountain?” Statera looks at him giggling. “Pӕngo is a construct, similar to me, he was a prototype when they were trying to figure out how… … I can trust you right?” A true look of worry is apparent on his face. “The bad people attacked because of what I am.” Meanwhile Pӕngo licks Soma’s head then nuzzles the little girl protectively.

"Oh! I forgot to introduce her! This is Veda, an ex member." Zoey said with a smile. "You're taking the fight straight to her?" she said her mouth hanging open. "Mind if i tag along? I'd love to kill her!" she exclaimed with sudden excitement. "I'm sure Joseph will take part as well." she added turning to Veda with a look of cmon it'l be fun!. Suddenly the dwarf called out from his basement. "COMING!" she said while descending the steps into Vamba's basement. What she saw next was unbelievable...


@SpookySpecter @Fawnking
 
Joseph stepped towards the boy, snatching the letter out of his hand, opening it up hastily and deeply staring into the note. With a frown and a small grunt, he scrunched up the small piece of paper and stuffed it into his pant pockets, and in the same motion, pulled out a small gold coin that he flicked onto the boy's hand and gestured him to leave. Stumbling back inside and slowly approaching his bed, Joseph picked up his jacket. What does that... witch, want from me now? He thought to himself as he nonchalantly slipped on the jacket. We haven't talked for years, and you think now is the right time? Joseph lets his thoughts wonder for a moment as he reminded himself of the past he had with the witch, though he, with a quick shake of the head, dispersed those memories into thin air. With stride, Joseph made his way towards the restaurant.
 
“Oh yeah, I’m Veda Shiroh!” She offered a hand to the older man, shaking it in a friendly greeting. She was a bit startled when Zoey mentioned her being an ex-Enigma member. “Oh yes, of course, confidential! Wait Crimson bitch… isn’t that the one who bombed Pitfum?” She said remembering Gabriel talking about the tragic incident. "Kyns, I’m sure if you can take down a dragon, Crimson bitch won’t be too big of a deal.” She laughed, a bit startled when Zoey offered to join the fight. This was her chance to get back in action, ”Count me in also!” As the dwarf announced the state of the armor she was a bit shocked. “That quickly?” She followed the younger down the stairs, eager to see what Vamba had constructed.

Kyns





Kyns shook Veda's hand and smiled. "It's great to meet you." Kyns said. "Thanks...I hope you're right about that being able to take her down...the mayor's counting on me." Kyns looked at the two women and smiled. "How about you guys and Joesph show up at the rally tomorrow. I think I have a proposition for Enigma that'll benefit both of us..." Kyns said grinning. When he heard Vamba, he followed Zoey down the steps and his eyes widened, a little surprised at Vamba's creation. "Pretty, isn't it?" Vamba says, as he puts the final polish on.

Vamba grabs a long stick and hands it to Zoey. "That's a folding sword. It can go in the side of your armor, I put a little hook there for it." Vamba points at the feet of the armor. "I added springs to help carry weight, and to give you a bit of a jump boost. Also, the armor is lacking four layers of plates than the typical set of steam plate...but small projectiles will still ricochet off it. Just watch out for high powered firearms and explosives when it comes to ranged ground troops. Also, the armor might feel a little cumbersome for the first few times you wear it. Most people who wear steam armor need to train to adapt to the weight of it, but being that this is much lighter, a few sessions of wearing the armor should be enough to get used to it." Vamba says, then grabs the helmet and twists it. Pulling it off the the armor effortlessly. "This is how you get inside it. I've gotten rid of the helmet lock system, because it added more weight. The downside of this is...well...you're only one step away from someone tearing your helmet off, but that's not likely to happen. Now climb in, the first thing you'll notice is that you can't move...so you'll have to twist the unlocking knob that's on the inside of the armor and put the armor in walking mode." Vamba handed the helmet to Zoey. "Now get in, let's see how I did."

Zoey nodded to Kyns' proposition. "I can try...we don't really know where he is." she said awkwardly before stopping dead in her tracks to see the beautiful amour. "V...Vamba...that is...amazing." she stuttered out while walking over to inspect it closer, taking the sword as he handed it to her and nodded showing she was understanding everything he said. She took the helmet and climbed in and twisted the knob, activating the armour as she placed the helmet back on and with some effort walked around, admiring the polish on the outside. "This is purely amazing." she said from within. "You should been the one running the college." she said as she started to get the hang of operating the movement of the ligher metal suit.


@Fawnking @SpookySpecter
 
Kyns


Kyns watched Zoey walked about the room and. "Damn, good work Vamba...I remember when I first got my armor...couldn't even move around...hey, you look a little taller now Zoey." Kyns said laughing. He looked at the clock in the basement workshop. It was 2:34. "Damn straight I should be running that college. Finally someone gets it." Vamba says in response to Zoey. As he begins putting away equipment. "So, where are you two headed off to now? Gotta go find your boss i'd assume." Kyns said, leaning against a wall.





@Drakeel @Fawnking
 
"Name mark?", Elizabeth asked confused, barely audible. "Oh... yes of course you can trust us. We do not intend to harm you in any way... even if it looked like it at first sight.", she replied looking towards Vinn who just moments ago held a rifle against Statera's head. As he revealed the arm under the cloth, Elizabeth's eyes were like fixed on it. She looked at it in confusion, but at the same time she was amazed by it. She didn't entirely understand how his arm was built or how it worked, but the way it looked was enough for her to know that those were some advanced mechanisms. It'd surely take someone ages to understand less than half of it. The runes that were spread across it also awakened her interest. She wanted to know what exactly Statera was and who built him.


"So you're not human, right? That's the reason those 'bad people' attacked you, huh... So how about you start with the one you call 'Papa'. Was he your creator or...?" Elizabeth just couldn't hide her excitement, she wanted to know and learn so much about it, making her almost forget the mission and why she was there in first place.


@SpookySpecter @infinitetech
 
Vedas shoulders tensed at the mention of John’s brother. “ Uh, Joseph was a bit upset over some things and ran off.” She clarified sounding like an upset parent. As they saw the armor and Zoey's face light up she couldn't help but smile too, it was a beautiful piece of work. She saw Zoey twist into the contraption and just move around enjoying her armor. “ Yes, Vamba it is quite a beauty, especially since it didn’t even take you an hour!!” Veda said clearly impressed with the dwarves skill. "Damn, good work Vamba...I remember when I first got my armor...couldnot even move around...hey, you look a little taller now Zoey." Kyns said and Veda laughed, “ I was kinda hoping you would fall over from the weight! I cannot believe you're taller than me in the suit.” Veda nagged in a friendly way, just glad her friend could experience something so extraordinary. At the mention of Joseph once again she sighed, “ I don’t think we will be able to find him, especially if he doesn’t want to be found, and Joseph certainly isn’t my leader, I was supposed to be the next-“ Then she recalled what Kyns warned about Pitfum and closed her mouth, abruptly ending her sentence.


@Drakeel @SpookySpecter
 
Vinn


Vinn looked at Beth and Statera. "This is so confusing...I don't know what side of the mountain....I guess since we came straight from Binbig...i'd have to say maybe the southeast side, more bluntly, the eastern side." Vinn said as he stroked his beard. He heard Beth ask about Statera's creator and he settled in. Figuring the two were going to talk for a while.





The Ice Child





The child awoke to the nuzzle of the strange metal creature. She looked up, confused of her surroundings but she calmed down once she remembered where she was. She saw two new people and a familiar looking white feathered creature. She smiled happily and got up, walking over to Soma and wrapping her arms around it's neck. Then she turned around and looked at the two new strangers. Her eyes settling on another construct.(Fenrir) She smiled and walked over to it, hoping to pet it.

"Now i am tall!" Zoey grinned under her helmet and flexed hoping it looks badass in the suit. "Do you love me now Veda~?" she said in a joking flirtatious voice before turning back to Vamba. "I can't thank you enough Vamba." she said taking of the helmet smiling warmly extending the suit's arm to shake his hand. She turned back to Veda, holding the helmet at her side. "What now?" she asked. "You know the city better than i!" she exclaimed after a moment. "Should we look for Joseph?"

Veda admired how well the suit looked a bit startled by the flirt but laughed regardless, finding herself enjoying it. “Sure kid,” She teased. She followed the other and thanked the older man. “Vamba your craftsmanship is amazing, thank you for giving Zoey this armor, I’m sure she will need it.” She chuckled and shook his hand, turning back to the elf. “You have to pay him before we leave, and we can search as much as you like but there is no guarantee we will find him.” Veda watched the elf pay for the glorious armor before they started to head out, bidding their goodbyes to the two. “Good luck on your speech Kyns!” Veda said before they closed the door. It was mid-evening and the sun was beating down its hot rays. Some children played in the street, parents close by, supervising.“Sure you won’t die from the heat? Especially since you're hot already!” Veda laughed at her own joke, bringing back the flirting from earlier. She glanced around trying to think of a place Joseph would have gone, not having a clue at the moment. "Maybe we can find a trace at a hotel?" She thought knowing Joseph wouldn't sleep on the streets, or at least hope he wouldn't.


@Drakeel @SpookySpecter
 
Zoey gave Vamba the gold and left the building with Veda. "I know there's no guarantee but we don't have anything to do till that speech tomorrow. "she said with a disappointed sigh. "I mean...do we want to look for him?" she added after a minute “Sure you won’t die from the heat? Especially since you're hot already!” she laughed with her. "Are you like this with every woman you talk to?" she said in the best suave voice she could muster. "I guess we could look for a hotel, which one is the closest to your bookshop? we should start there." she said in a more serious tone. Zoey looked around to see the busy streets, something she hadn't seen much of in the north. "It's funny how differt anywhere else is than home." she thought out loud, zoning out and staring at the street.


@Fawnking
 
“We might as well ake sure he is alright, but we will be back by late evening. If he wants to disappear ill let him.” She sighed, looking around trying to find the closest hotel around, as they strolled down the street. Veda laughed as the other assumed she was normally a flirt. She was a bit surprised with Zoey's attitude change but tried to lighten the situation. “Hey, you are reading my mind there, Zoey.” She smiled, glad they had a similar plan. When Zoey mentioned her home, she was a bit surprised. “Hm,what do you mean? Not as many people?”

Zoey smiled at Veda's joke "Maybe that's my magic." she winked jokingly. “Hm,what do you mean? Not as many people?” she turned her attention back to Veda. "It's just...so different...the sun the people, everything. Everyone is so calm, not worried about their next meal or even their next step." she shook her head, out of nowhere she asked: "Have you ever seen the south? is it nice? i've never seen it." she started walking again. "Sorry for getting so off topic." she said with a smile.


@Fawnking
 
Veda gave a small smile at the other, patting her arm through the armor. She heard the other describe her home as they walked closer towards home. “ You sound like you miss home, hm?” She said feeling the other must be homesick. If she was used to camping and living in the wilderness, then the city must not be a comfortable place. “ It's alright I don’t mind you going off-topic.” She assured, before responding; “ The south? Maybe once or twice as a child, it was very warm from what I remember. “ Veda said honestly, not having thought of her father in a long time. She abruptly stopped, spotting a very fancy hotel. “Might as well try this one, right?”

Zoey smiled at Veda's attempt to comfort her. "Guess i do, but for now! We have a mob boss to find." she exclaimed, pressing forward she listened to Veda talk about the lack of memories from the south. Zoey stopped with her looking to the hotel. “Might as well try this one, right?” she nodded and entered the building, looking around for the service desk she found it a little further to the back of the beautifully decorated lobby. She walked up to the woman behind the desk. "Exuse me, miss? did you happen to see someone come in last night..." she described Joseph's features and awaited a response.


@Fawnking
 
The blonde behind the counter raised an eyebrow at the appearance. She was quite tall and had doe-like brown eyes and was dressed rather modestly and looked very professional just like the rooms décor. “ I don’t remember any guy like that, any name you can go by?” She said picking up a book with all the occupants of the previous night. “Oh! Joseph Lawrence?” Veda answered quickly, wondering for a second if they actually picked the right one first. The blonde stared down at the book flipping a page she ‘tsked’ “ No Joseph here, sorry ladies.” Veda nodded and gave a quick ‘ thanks’ before the departed the hotel. “Of course, it wouldn’t be the first one we go to-“ Suddenly a thought popped into her head; “ What if he went under an alias? Then we will NEVER find the kid!” She groaned, being a bit loud and attracting a few passer-by's attention.


@Drakeel
 
Zoey turned her attention to the hotel lobby, deciding to let Veda do the rest of the talking. She turned to see the yellow wallpaper with the intricate designs in the middle. She startled from her thoughts as Veda started to leave, she quickly followed. "A mob boss would most definitely not use his real name to sleep in a hotel." She agreed with Veda. "He's kept enigma on its feet for years, he's probably just fine." She added. After a moment she said. "Do you mind if I drop this at Gabriel's? For a just a little bit." She asked in a hopeful turn while motioning to the armour. "Then maybe we can go do something fun." She added with a smile.
