"Aw yeah. That's how it's done."

Spensir's visor retracts as he stoops and picks up the vial, Mabarius still crackling from the residual energy.

"Any idea what this, or hell, any of this crap, does, Mab?"

Mab uses his magical vision shit and god-stuff to examine the various loot.

Sen forces the spell book to fly over to her hands where she looks at the cover.

[kj1225]

The staff is basically a white metal pole with a safe on each end, The spell book is a book of incomprehensible symbols that are oddly comprehensible, and the vial is... unidentifiable even to Mabarius.

Spoiler: Sen (click to show/hide)

Well, it's obviously a chaos magic spell book. It's pretty obvious.

[Sanure]

This is the first new magic book that sen has seen in 5 long years. She expends all of her mana to- oh wait. She can't. Her magic tome abilities are still scrambled from Ozzy shenanigans. She places the book in a satchel made of paper to carry it in and looks around at the loot before walking back to Maria's house.

Fredericka is gone, having been teleported back to Costa Rica due to her contract being complete.

"Getting the Twilight Sigil? Eh, not really... But I'm curious! For once in my existence, I have something to be absolutely curious about..."
Ashley smiles brightly, and actually seems... joyful? That's certainly a first in a long time. And then... it started snowing. It was just now apparent that it was cold in Upper-Central France. Or... did it just turn cold?
"Heh, look at that. Snow."

((If I understand properly what's going on, I will begin GMing now.))

((Keep in mind that I will be unable to continue doing so until tomorrow in about 20 minutes))

The snow was beautiful. Unnaturally so. And when Ashley's eyes were off the scenery - whether or not she was perceptive as all get-out, there was something about the snow that was just inherently distracting -, it changed. Rather dramatically, too.

Now, where once they stood before a Void Gate, there was a large tower made of crumbling stone, surrounded by fields of frosted grass, sharp-tipped, wild, and beautiful, as hills rolled on, the night stars shone, and a brilliant aurora soared in the distance. Where once there were buildings, now there were trees, sparse and bare.

It seems the Twilight cares not for the literality of the crossroads; perhaps it cared more for the symbolism of them? In such a case, the crossroads between two dimensions might be almost...too powerful...

[Projeck37]

((Well, that's not where I was going with that, but okay
I meant for the snow to just be an introduction thing for something else.
But I am certainly okay with this!))
"And you thought I was just being silly~"
Ashley sticks her tongue out at Alucard as she ambles forward. Her natural instincts guiding her, as they were keen, and magically gifted. Her katana glowed brightly as it entered The Twilight, it's home region of the universe. It's power surged back to life, as the blade became surrounded by a brightening red, electricity-like arcs of energy surging around. Alucard would remember now, that the katana used to be like this prior to the Dumah fight, prior to Osmodeus... Even prior to the kidnapping of Maria. Something felt odd about the blade, but it'd require closer inspection later, and it looks like Ashley's too distracted to hand over the katana now, anyways.

[PrivateNomad]

Alucard smiles, a rare sight, and then they enter the Twilight. He gazes in disbelief, mesmerized by the image.
"It's... beautiful."
Eventually he gathers enough sense to follow her, a slight smile on his face.
"It's good to be curious! I am too, as we may possibly discover what I've been looking for for an entire decade... we sure have come a long way, haven't we?"

[Akroma]

((maybe the snow is unnaturaly beautiful because I recall the last time someone asked Smurf about the ingame season, it was july or something))

"Zee people nowadays. Zey get a hold of basic necromancy and a handful of zombies and zey zink zemselves to be powerful."

[Projeck37]

((Oh god finals start today.))
"That we have... But we much farther to go."

[Akroma]

Meanwhile, Icarus continues waiting for her guests to arrive

[kj1225]

Kyle lands near the group.
"The zombies left."

[Akroma]

"What were zee necromancers thinking? Did zey not see that castle Dracula and the LA army was not enough to deal with us? Why would some zombies make them think zey could?"

[kj1225]

"Oh, no, they got their demands so they left peacefully."

[Projeck37]

Linda hefts up her rifle. She'd done good for now. Huzzah.
She sits on the edge of the water tower she was on, overlooking the landscape.
Tobias arrives at the resort. He waves at Icarus.

[Rolepgeek]

"I...am not entirely certain what it is, Spensir."

"Well then, I ain't drinkin' this anytime soon."

He sighs and shoves it into a pocket before walking back over to the rest of the group.

"So what kind of Assholes think that being able to make bodies walk gives them the right to demand jack shit?"


As Ashley walked, and Alucard followed, leaving behind the decrepit tower, they came upon a path. In Twilight -or perhaps just in this one, it was hard to tell- roads had power. Names, as well. So they began to walk along the cobbled path, as the fields stayed the wild, beautiful frozen hills. Ahead, though, a forest loomed, of evergreen trees, with leaves of colors no mortal eye has ever seen and returned to speak of...save perhaps one. And the legends around him were many, and only mostly untrue...

In the distance, though the direction is impossible to determine, a horn sounds, and a calling of a Hunt is had, from the sounds of the answering horns and the baying of hounds that accompany it, echoing from field and forest alike.

There is no moon, strangely enough, in this world's sky, it seems, but yet there is more than enough light to see by, at least for one such as Ashley. Perhaps it is simply the New Moon, though that would spell it's own consequences...
