Blackreach
Under the eerie orange light of Blackreach's glowing orb, shining like an artificial sun, a sprawling construction project presents itself. Myriads of drones swarming like ants all over a massive scaffolding structure. It's hard to fully discern what's being built inside, but it seems vaguely humanoid.
Great Lift at Mzinchaleft
Klug pops out of his rift by the Dwarven elevator.
Suddenly, his book begins flapping frantically. Either he doesn't notice or he doesn't care, but his shadow is also turning demonic and thrashing about, desperately seeking something.
"Looks like we just hit jackpot." Klug blasts open the elevator doors with a basic burst of magical energy, then begins a descent into Blackreach.
"A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to."They go up, and soon arrive to the watchmen tower, noticing that Henry's been seemingly caught instead of just landing in the rock below.
The blue-haired woman holding his collar is of small stature, but is deceptively strong, since she is carrying a grown man with one arm.
Hanging is... nice too... hehe...
She flies above the group and just drop him down, with him landing on his feet pretty easily.
Henry ?!
Oh hey Samsara ! How is it going ? Oh, who's that guy ?
I'm doing w-wait, did you just jump off the castle ?
Yeah, and I was caught by the lady !
Everyone else seems temporarily stunned by that, except Noire, who answer by shrugging.
Why would you...
Samsara pinch the bridge of her nose, annoyed.

She look up at the woman on the wyvern, who slowly fly down and land next to Scarlet.
Hello you two !
Sup.
... Greetings.
The woman observes the Hoshidians (and Scarlet) a little. They stare back, causing Samsara to sigh, amused.
Must be a Nohrian.

Klug steps out of the elevator. His shadow, though seemingly subdued by the low lighting of the subterranean ruin, reaches out in the direction of the blonde kid.
Klug's eyes narrow and he puts on his best confident expression as he begins his approach. The book, in fact, does not get more frantic as he does so, but rather seems to calm down, as if knowing nothing will divert his attention and making a mess won't help.

"A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to."Klug's approach unfortunately does not go unnoticed by the drones.
"WARNING. UNAUTHORIZED PRESENCE IN SECTOR TWO. REPEAT. UNAUTHORIZED PRESENCE IN SECTOR TWO."
The boy immediately turns in Klug's direction. At this point, the scholar can see that one of his eyes is obscured behind his bangs, while the other glows with a fierce light. It becomes obvious that this is no regular kid.
"Well well well. What is this? A lost little child, or one of those so-called heroes of so-called justice? Not that it matters."

"I'm neither of those things," Klug answers calmly. He keeps walking closer.
"Do you possess the magical Stone of Moon? If so, I would have it. This is your one chance to hand it over without a fight."
"A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to."Well, we have Ylissians, Nohrians, Hoshidians, Plegians, Italians ? French ? I don't know what those countries are.
The group above scatter, though Beruka just kind of leap into the shadow.
You've got Nohrians, huh ? That's... acceptable, but be careful. They're traitorous.

"Oh, you mean this thing?" He pulls out the Stone of Moon from his pocket. Klug will notice that the stone has been integrated into a metal frame attached to a circular chain for the purpose of being worn like a necklace, and sure enough, the kid does just that. Four spindly metallic limbs then emerge from his back, two of them clutching a pair of futuristic pistols, while the other two hold a pair of blades coursing with electric sparks.
"Sorry, but Neo Pseudo Porky is not the kind of boy to share his toys! Hahahahahahaha!"

Klug unleashes Fossa, trying to ground Neo Pseudo with an intensely magnified gravitational force focused on the ground beneath him.

"Right. Well, I should probably tell Awkeff that your people will be ready to assist when it comes time to infiltrate Farandare's lair. We'll let you know when that is, of course," Viserys says. "Until then, may the Divines watch over you."
He bids farewell to Samsara and the others, raises the hood of his cloak, and heads down the tower's stairs before departing from Fort Dawnguard. He hoped that Alleria wouldn't keep them waiting too long for their excursion.
The Stone of Moon shines as a white wind vortex surrounds Neo Pseudo, speeding up his movements drastically. The gravity manages to ground him, but that doesn't stop him from briefly going into a fighting stance before rushing at Klug in a blur, trying to nail him with a cross-shaped slash with his twin electrified swords.
Haste, King Knight's attack
Klug goes stumbling back from the slash, a magical barrier lessening the damage of the attack.
A white spark appears in Klug's hand. "Stella Innerans!"
He thrusts the spark forward and it bursts into blinding light like a flashbang, trying to... well... blind Neo Pseudo.

"A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to."Neo stumbles back, blinded, then whirls like a top, tossing a multitude of bombs in all directions to make up for his momentary inability to aim. Afterwards, his silhouette blurs and splits into four Neo Pseudos, trying to make it difficult for Klug to discern the real one.

Klug steps back, covering himself from the bombs' explosions with his book and his free hand's forearm.
When Neo splits into four, he decides he's not going to let his goal be stalled much longer, and a Puyo stack begins to fall down onto the ground behind him.
"A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to."Klug is hit head-on by PK Rockin', and the damage is transferred to the Puyo stack, piling Nuisance Puyos galore on his setup.
The scary thing: He's swiftly working around it, and soon the stack resembles a sandwich with many colors as the bread and dull grey as the meat.

Dedan
◊ is talking to Japhet
◊ and Zacharie
◊, while Sucre
◊ is trying to be a little wacky to entertain Hugo.
The boy doesn't look too energetic right now though. Not that he's tired, but he isn't particularly happy, and is focusing most of his efforts on drawing things. Most of the drawings he's made so far resemble Specters, something the Judge
◊, who had joined up again with Zacharie after Galeem's defeat, is looking over curiously as he's laying down on the ground all cat-like.
"I still don't understand how I could've lost sight of her!", Dedan growls. "She was right next to me when all of Galeem's victims were turned back to normal, but once we were all in a group, she was the only one not there!"
"Keep your voice down a little. You'll only sadden Hugo if he hears you repeat that again.", Japhet says, concerned.
Zacharie says nothing, but nods in agreement, tilting his head to cast a glance at Hugo.
Very close by the group, by pure coincidence, is Bismark
◊, who had been looking for a place to train. And while this big, empty part of the Arena definitely gives him the creeps, he feels safe enough with the Senzu Bean capsules that he'd dare come here to try.

In the year 202X, all is devastation... Soon, any last shred of hope had by the saintliest optimist shall die and decay.Neo doesn't let up the pressure. A ball of energy appears in his hands, firing a barrage of death rays at his opponent.
"Is that really all you can do? Pile up a bunch of slimes with eyes? I would almost shed a tear for how pathetic you are, but the truth is, I find it really funny instead! We're deep beneath the earth. No one ever comes here. Even if you scream for help, no one will come. You're going to die here, all alone, over this little rock! Hahahahahahaha! Spankety spankety spankety!"

"They'll do perfectly, Samsara. Although Alleria did warn that something lurks in the Undercroft, if we're careful, I think we should be able to avoid whatever Farandare seemingly has lying in wait," Viserys says. "Just make sure this team is fully prepared when it comes time for our excursion."
