"Few things worthwhile are easy, child. Don' mean they ain't worth learnin' to do." She gives a small shake of her head and continues. "An' don' jus' look to the king. There are other places you can ask without that won' be as bi... That won' involve botherin' the royalty. The academy, the Freesword Guild. Others. Smart kid like you can figure it out, along with your parents. Far better than most of us here, I'm sure."<br> <br>Mazurek nods slowly to Ictus after he recovers from his surprise, folding his wings once again, "I..have seen some, but not anything like THIS." He does not part for her, but then again he probably doesn't need to since she could walk right under him without trouble given his size, "How is she talking to us, anyway? She's barely moving her mouth."<br> <br>Leian shakes her head slightly " A.. Creator?.. I know little of such from where I come from..<br> <br>Leian shakes her head slightly " A.. Creator?.. I know little of such from where I come from.." she looks about slightly " Tell me more about them perhaps?" she tilts her head, tail twitching behind her " Are they all adorable like this one?"<br> <br>Ryusho slowly shifts, glancing to the creator, then to Ictus, then..shifting a bit, "I...but.." he stands there a moment, "But......Then What...But.." ...he slowly rubs his eyes, and opens his mouth but then ..rather then saying anything he closes it, as he takes a long deep breath, "Creators help me I either have completely gone insane...and am realising I am stuck in my own mind, or I am just....." he sits there for a moment, "...confused beyond any thought that I have." he says finalyl with no clue how to say what he was feeling...but it is mostly mumbled to himself as he rubs his head..as this has already given him just a bit of a headache.....<br> <br>The Creator surrenders the scarf to Arimia, "Of course, uh..." She hops back a step, half skipping towards her cube and looking thoughtful, "The ones with the nice jewelry," she says, pointing at a few soul pendants dangling from necks, "Learn the fastest, right?"<br> <br>Ictus nods to Mazurek and motions to the device around Juliana's neck, "Through that, err... Device is how she is speaking." he looks to Ryu and gives a pinxh, "We are real, you are not in the desert still." he blinks at the child and nods at that, "Yeah, we do." he looks surprised though, "You don't know what these are?" he fingers his pendant a little.<br> <br>Mazurek turns his gaze to the box that the girl has around her neck, finally NOW noticing the thing, "Is that some sort of translating device or can she understand us easily enough as well?" He rubs his head a little, "Someone is going to have to fill me in on events. I haven't been out of my hibernation for very long, heck I just finished taking a bath." His pendant is definitely out in the open, being bare-chested and all.<br> <br>Arimia lets out a soft laugh and gives a small shake of her head. She turns the scarf this way and that before handing it back. "After a fashion we do. We... Learn the knowledge stored in the gems here better." She taps one of the gems in her pendant. "If it's not a knowledge in the gem... We learn it at about the same rate as anyone else, I suppose. We're jus' more accustomed to learnin'." She looks over at Ictus with a flat expression before saying, "Of course not, kit. There haven't been any Creators about from the time of the Shatterin' until now. So they'd have to ask an' study to learn about it. An' I'm sure they've had their attentions focused elsewhere. No doubt lots of folk makin' demands of them. No matter how politely phrased."<br> <br>Leian rubs her head slightly as she watches on curiously, biting her lower lip in a bit of a nervous manner as she holds her pendant softly against her chest, tail swaying slowly behind her, back and forth as she keeps her eyes on the child.<br> <br>Ryusho himself had his twin pendant rather visible, with the two gems socketed in it, though they have not been removed or swapped in quite a long time, it has been cleaned up and worked on quite a bit, to make it look quite nice, after all the weathering it had suffered while he had been lost in the desert for so many months<br> <br>"The doctor said it was a," the Creator lifts her hands, making air quotes, "Local Curiosity. She sounded keen about it but didn't tell me much else." She squints at them, "Those gems are like memory devices?" she says, the translation coming through quite roughly as an unequivalent term is slammed into and worked around by clever Creator Technology, "I never heard of that before. Uh, well... let's try?" she pats her thighs as one might summon a favored pet, "Come on, let's get two of you and we'll try it."<br> <br>Mazurek raises his brow slightly with the motions given by the girl. He recognizes it even if he shouldn't. Curiosity gets the better of him and he heads over to the girl, his long strides making it a short trek to begin with, "I..guess I'll be one of your lab rats, or whatever."<br> <br>Arimia reaches up to pluck the smoke from her muzzle and uses another small bit of fire mathmagic to incinerate it, letting the ashes fall to the ground. She pushes her hood back and moves toward the child. "Here's hopin' I don' end up gettin' cut in half by tryin' this," she mutters wryly. She then says, a bit louder, "I... Suppose they are? They store the knowledge an' skills of the one who imprints the gem. Be it a merchant or an archer."<br> <br>Ryusho mrphs softly, as he looks over, and..slowly he takes a deep breath, "..I almost want to...say I will try just..to help me..figure out if this is..more if a real thing but....it seems you already have....your two joiners....though I don't know if my mind could deal with it well enough if I tried..now that I think of it.<br> <br>Ictus shrugs at Mazurek and shakes his head, "It does other things as well, I'm told anyway..." he looks nods to Arimia and shrugs, "True, though... I figured the others had told them about it..." he looks to Juliana and blinks at that as he processes the words, "Yeah you could say that." he thinks a bit but Arimia and Mazurek speak up first so he shrugs and steps back<br> <br>Leian grips softly at the middle of her own arm, crossing her other arm over her chest " What about what you mentioned about Shaila?" she tilts her head a bit " What was it she spoke of? Was it this? Or is there more?"<br> <br>She begins to speak, and the device has quite some difficulty translating the esoteric things she is saying. The words are foreign, and the device fumbles terribly trying to come up with close equivalents, but it all sounds like nonsense. The girl frowns at this, then pulls up the card, tapping at it a few times before taking a slow breath, reconsidering her tact perhaps. "Oh," she says towards Leian, "She is the one that taught me the trick, or at least pointed me in the right direction." |

A moderate crowd gathers. Tis unusual for a Creator to put out the call for gathering, and not one easily denied, even if it comes from a mere cub of them. Said child stands just under the great Creator vessel, perched on a cube of Creator Steel as if to emphasize her position as she waits for everyone to arrive.
Having heard the call from Juliana, Ictus wanders up to the ship and peers up at the girl, he may look a little different from when he last met her as he waves friendily a bit, "Hello Juliana." he smiles.
Mazurek is one of those to respond to the call. The huge draco-iguana had been taking a swim on the beach when the call sounded, which has his dark hide gleaming in the light.
Ryusho had.come along because he had heard all about this stuff, but, to see it after his return from being gone so long is..literally a shock to him, as he seems in a daze just from sight alone in supprise, even towering over most others he still was in shock from the fact that the -idea- of creators being able to actually -be- on this planet..not just ...elsewhere and all was just an idea, a concept, not a reality when he had left on that mission so many months ago, and still finding stuff so straonge to him, for this to be real was...mind blowing to say the least as he stands there, probably not far from Ictus or Mazurek.....
Arimia slips through the crowd, making her way toward the front of it, her cloak pulled about her. She stops once she has a clear view and watches the young Creator. She keeps her distance, however, content to wait near the crowd, in the event that she needs to slip away. As she waits she fishes about in her pockets and pulls out a thin white cylinder, raising it to her muzzle and using a small bit of fire magic to light the tip. Some sort of smoke.
Leian wanders slowly into the area, tail swaying softly behind her. Her ears perked atop her head curiously as she gets near, looking to the child and blinking slightly, her features softening a bit " A child! Awe..." she coos slightly, smiling to her, and looking to the others about her
She is not shy to return the wave towards any that call her name, which has her waving a lot as her name has become something of common knowledge through the city since her arrival. "I'm glad you could all make it," she says. She does not appear to put any effort into speaking, but the dangling metal card at her chest echoes her words loudly, making it easy to understand even over the crowd, "That spirit, Shaila, she taught me a secret, and it was a very hard one. I had to do a lot of research to figure it out." she says, tapping her chin lightly, "But I did, and I want to show."
The Iguana-dragon has been very much out of the loop for quite a while now, for he has this look of one who does not comprehend anything that is being said by the child. Having been hibernating underwater for quite some time, he has missed critical events that he just might have wanted to experience.
Ictus blinks at Mazurek and chuckles a bit, "Hello Mazurek, how have you been?" he now has yellow patterns in his fur and three tails instead of two, he looks to Ryu and blinks at his daze with a tilts of his head, "You ok Ryusho?" he chuckles at Leian and nods at that, "Probably knows more than all of us put together though." he looks to Juliana and nods at that, "I see, what did she say?"
Arimia tugs the hood of her cloak further about her head to try and hide the scowl that twists her features at the mention of the spirit, though she doesn't say anything. She simply keeps her odd eyes on the child, watching and waiting.
Leian tilts her head a bit at the mention of Shaila and her ears perk a bit again " Shaila?" she softly flicks her tail a bit as if the name had sparked something of an interest " Oh, do tell!" she looks to Ictus and blinks a moment " She does? Thats amazing!" she says gleefully " And she is so adorable as well!"
the same could of been said for the large dragon as he blinks and glances down to Ictus, "...This is real right?" he asks then he blinks, ".....am I alright? I was lost in the desert for -months- ...A lot of what I have delt with is far from what most would call -alright- and my current mindset is probably far from 'alright' too, and.........this -is- real right?" he says again simply, "This was barely a -idea- if I remember right before I had my mission I got lost on." he says as he is trying to wrap his mind around it.
"The spirits have their own way of doing things, and at first," admits the Creator, "It made my head hurt something awful trying to figure through it, but I think I understand it." She extends a hand out, "They have more space than we do," she says as if that should make some sort of sense, "Imagine if you were..." she trails off, perhaps noticing the crowd is starting to look fairly baffled. "Let me show instead of saying." She brings back those hands, then thrusts her right hand off to the side, where it seems to just vanish into the air, cut cleanly a little past the shoulder, though it clearly is not painful to her. A shriek comes up in the crowd that parts way, revealing the Creator child's hand hovering there where it has snatched someone's scarf off their neck. It vanishes, pulled back to the child who holds it up triumphantly.
Ictus chuckles at Leian and nods before he looks to Ryu with concern, "I see, yes. This is real and it was a shock to me as well when they arrived." he shrugs though. Then Juliana speaks up and he nods at that, "Wouldn't surprise me..." he blinks at that arm though and stares at the scarf, "How...?" he looks confused a bit and shakes his head, "Impressive..."
Arimia tilts her head as she watches, though grows distracted by the scream, turning quickly with one hand disappearing under her cloak. Once she sees what is going on she turns back to the child, eyes narrowed slightly, before she steps forward. "Is it a device you have created that does this? Or do you do it without such aid? An' if the latter, can you teach it? It could prove quite useful to some. If dangerous if the students were not chosen with care."
Ryusho stands there, looking to ictus then...when that happened he just kinda..stares dumbfounded, as if something just stopped working in his brain, as he stares, without blinking for several seconds before he blinks finally once, then twice, before he hears ictus say Impressive before he sits there, and...stares at Ictus, then back to the kid before he rubs his eyes, "..By the creators.......now I wonder if I'm still in the desert, and have finally gone mad....." he mumbles softly to himself as he looks around and rubs his eyes several times before he flat out -slaps- himself for a moment to make sure...
Mazurek shakes his head slowly, looking from Ictus to Ryusho and then back, "I am afraid I have no clue what this is about. Who is this creature in front of us, and how has this airship been able to defy the natural laws and not topple over from its weight? I am as lost as Ryu here in this regard." He is about to say more when the scream interrupts him, causing him to twirl about in a defensive crouch that includes the spreading of his wings. His carelessness just might end up knocking quite a number of folk over. He spies the hand and the scarf and is struck speechless, but remains staring away from the child afterward thanks to just not knowing what just happened.
Leian jumps in surprise from the scream, looking around a moment, and spots the floating hand in shock " Wha..." she says startled, then looks to the child once it dissapears, and blinks seeing the scarf with her " What just happened?"
The child hops down from the box, approaching the crowd to offer the scarf back, though few are willing to touch the thing that was so recently the focus of such an outlandish act, "I'm not sure. We could try? I will ask your king to speak with mom and dad and pick out a few that I'll try to teach. I should warn, it's pretty hard..." Hard for a Creator, that's encouraging.
Ictus looks to Mazurek and shakes his head with a small laugh, 'Mazurek... She is a creator, you've seen their statues before haven't you?" he smiles though and looks back to the child, "Oh? I'm with Ari in that it'd be fun to try... I admit I'm not much of a mathemagician though." he shrugs a bit, "But if it was hard for you..." he trails off a bit
Arimia moves her shoulders in a small shrug and, if allowed, reaches out to take the scarf and look it over. "Few things worthwhile are easy, child. Don' mean they ain't worth learnin' to do." She gives a small shake of her head and continues. "An' don' jus' look to the king. There are other places you can ask without that won' be as bi... That won' involve botherin' the royalty. The academy, the Freesword Guild. Others. Smart kid like you can figure it out, along with your parents. Far better than most of us here, I'm sure."
Mazurek nods slowly to Ictus after he recovers from his surprise, folding his wings once again, "I..have seen some, but not anything like THIS."

She's barely moving her mouth."
Leian shakes her head slightly " A.. Creator?.. I know little of such from where I come from..
Leian shakes her head slightly " A.. Creator?.. I know little of such from where I come from.." she looks about slightly " Tell me more about them perhaps?" she tilts her head, tail twitching behind her " Are they all adorable like this one?"
Ryusho slowly shifts, glancing to the creator, then to Ictus, then..shifting a bit, "I...but.." he stands there a moment, "But......Then What...But.." ...he slowly rubs his eyes, and opens his mouth but then ..rather then saying anything he closes it, as he takes a long deep breath, "Creators help me I either have completely gone insane...and am realising I am stuck in my own mind, or I am just....." he sits there for a moment, "...confused beyond any thought that I have." he says finalyl with no clue how to say what he was feeling...but it is mostly mumbled to himself as he rubs his head..as this has already given him just a bit of a headache.....
The Creator surrenders the scarf to Arimia, "Of course, uh..." She hops back a step, half skipping towards her cube and looking thoughtful, "The ones with the nice jewelry," she says, pointing at a few soul pendants dangling from necks, "Learn the fastest, right?"
Ictus nods to Mazurek and motions to the device around Juliana's neck, "Through that, err... Device is how she is speaking." he looks to Ryu and gives a pinxh, "We are real, you are not in the desert still." he blinks at the child and nods at that, "Yeah, we do." he looks surprised though, "You don't know what these are?" he fingers his pendant a little.
Mazurek turns his gaze to the box that the girl has around her neck, finally NOW noticing the thing, "Is that some sort of translating device or can she understand us easily enough as well?" He rubs his head a little, "Someone is going to have to fill me in on events. I haven't been out of my hibernation for very long, heck I just finished taking a bath." His pendant is definitely out in the open, being bare-chested and all.
Arimia lets out a soft laugh and gives a small shake of her head. She turns the scarf this way and that before handing it back. "After a fashion we do. We... Learn the knowledge stored in the gems here better." She taps one of the gems in her pendant. "If it's not a knowledge in the gem... We learn it at about the same rate as anyone else, I suppose. We're jus' more accustomed to learnin'." She looks over at Ictus with a flat expression before saying, "Of course not, kit. There haven't been any Creators about from the time of the Shatterin' until now. So they'd have to ask an' study to learn about it. An' I'm sure they've had their attentions focused elsewhere. No doubt lots of folk makin' demands of them. No matter how politely phrased."
Leian rubs her head slightly as she watches on curiously, biting her lower lip in a bit of a nervous manner as she holds her pendant softly against her chest, tail swaying slowly behind her, back and forth as she keeps her eyes on the child.
Ryusho himself had his twin pendant rather visible, with the two gems socketed in it, though they have not been removed or swapped in quite a long time, it has been cleaned up and worked on quite a bit, to make it look quite nice, after all the weathering it had suffered while he had been lost in the desert for so many months
"The doctor said it was a," the Creator lifts her hands, making air quotes, "Local Curiosity. She sounded keen about it but didn't tell me much else." She squints at them, "Those gems are like memory devices?" she says, the translation coming through quite roughly as an unequivalent term is slammed into and worked around by clever Creator Technology, "I never heard of that before. Uh, well... let's try?" she pats her thighs as one might summon a favored pet, "Come on, let's get two of you and we'll try it."
Mazurek raises his brow slightly with the motions given by the girl. He recognizes it even if he shouldn't. Curiosity gets the better of him and he heads over to the girl, his long strides making it a short trek to begin with, "I..guess I'll be one of your lab rats, or whatever."
Arimia reaches up to pluck the smoke from her muzzle and uses another small bit of fire mathmagic to incinerate it, letting the ashes fall to the ground. She pushes her hood back and moves toward the child. "Here's hopin' I don' end up gettin' cut in half by tryin' this," she mutters wryly. She then says, a bit louder, "I... Suppose they are? They store the knowledge an' skills of the one who imprints the gem. Be it a merchant or an archer."
Ryusho mrphs softly, as he looks over, and..slowly he takes a deep breath, "..I almost want to...say I will try just..to help me..figure out if this is..more if a real thing but....it seems you already have....your two joiners....though I don't know if my mind could deal with it well enough if I tried..now that I think of it.
Ictus shrugs at Mazurek and shakes his head, "It does other things as well, I'm told anyway..." he looks nods to Arimia and shrugs, "True, though... I figured the others had told them about it..." he looks to Juliana and blinks at that as he processes the words, "Yeah you could say that." he thinks a bit but Arimia and Mazurek speak up first so he shrugs and steps back
Leian grips softly at the middle of her own arm, crossing her other arm over her chest " What about what you mentioned about Shaila?" she tilts her head a bit " What was it she spoke of? Was it this? Or is there more?"
She begins to speak, and the device has quite some difficulty translating the esoteric things she is saying. The words are foreign, and the device fumbles terribly trying to come up with close equivalents, but it all sounds like nonsense. The girl frowns at this, then pulls up the card, tapping at it a few times before taking a slow breath, reconsidering her tact perhaps. "Oh," she says towards Leian, "She is the one that taught me the trick, or at least pointed me in the right direction."
