"Now what are you trying to say about me?", Cyber asks, sounding comically unamused. Mara just laughs.

   "For someone who calculates so many things, Cyber, you seem to have some trouble distinguishing that which you see from that which it can truly be."   

Cyber just makes an annoyed groan at Mara before turning back to Narktus.

"Very well then. Once you simulate your room, the spar can begin."


That seems to get Anna's attention.

"I'm not that familiar with Rupees... but gemstones are something I'll accept too. But you'll have to show me what they look like so that I can determine their worth."

Shoto nods. Platinum. Alright.

He shrugs. I've got better things to do than to wander around here after all; sorry for that.

"Weakness to illusions noted," Narktus jokes, barely able to sound serious.

He pulls up a digital keyboard and starts fiddling around. After a few seconds, he disperses it with a swipe of his hand, then the simulation room turns into a void (with a floor) for a moment. Then, the room turns into a war on a desert planet. Narktus and Mara stand across from each other as blaster fire and missiles fly all around them.

"Forgive my dramatic flair."

Narktus points behind Cyber, where a Republic Gunship is preparing to take off behind him. He is able to board it without being 'noticed' by any simulated Clone Troopers or Jedi.


Zelda holds up a Green Rupee, holding it up to Anna in that one Morshu pose.

"This is the least valuable Rupee. Green is the base value - the equivalent of one generic coin. A Blue Rupee is worth five Green, Red is worth twenty Green, Purple is worth fifty Green, Silver is worth one hundred Green and Gold is worth three hundred Green."

"Don't worry about it, man. But before you decide to pay Platinum a visit or whatever, let me ask you something," Pietro says. "I know you probably haven't been here long, but have you seen a creepy-looking guy who apparently wears a hand-shaped mask or something?"

Mara looks around as the room shifts.

   "A full on war. Now this is a sight I haven't seen for a few decennia."   

While she enjoys the view, Cyber turns to look at the ship and quickly decides to fly to it and enter it. Even if Mara isn't planning on going all out, she's destructive enough that sticking around her would be trouble. And he doesn't even know what Narktus can do or how he fights, so he may just as well be equally destructive.

After he's entered the safe zone, Mara grins.

   "I quite enjoy your dramatic flair. A style after my own heart. Now then..."   

She draws a set of blades from the 'skin' on her arms, dual wielding.

   "You better not disappoint."   

VS Mara


Anna ponders as she counts in her mind.

"I don't suppose you have two thousand Gold Rupees on you? Because all that together is about the amount of gold I spent on this blade."

Narktus chuckles. "If you prove entertaining, perhaps I'll share with you the information I was meaning to divulge."

His weapon, in its default lightsaber form, levitates from his belt to his hand, then he switches it on.

The Tortured Mad Conqueror (Chaoz Fantasy)

He swipes his non-wielding hand, and the ground in front of Mara suddenly explodes into dirt and rock, which he uses as cover to try and rush in and slash at her with his blade.


"Well... I am royalty..."

After a moment's hesitation, Zelda rummages in a large pouch tied to her horse's saddle. She pulls out a smaller pouch and hands it to Anna.

In there is 2000 Gold Rupees.

She does get surprised by the exploding part of the ground, but when Narktus rushes in, he'll find his path blocked by some sort of spinning energy shield that blows the dust away from Mara's vision.

   "Sounds like I have a big responsibility now."   , she says, grinning before putting her hand on the shield and making it explode right in Narktus' face.


Anna takes the pouch and looks in it, then gasps.

"By Naga! You just pulled that out like it was nothing at all."

Then she smirks teasingly, though in a good-natured manner.

"I should've asked for more.", she jokes. Then she offers Zelda the blade back.

"I promised the guy I wouldn't sell this to anyone who's appearance matches yours. But hey, I know a thief when I see one. Just don't tell him you got it from me if he sees you with it."

She winks.

"Tell him you reclaimed it from some brigands. Then, if he comes to complain to me, I can just tell him I got robbed."

Narktus is blown back by the shield. However, he recovers and rises into the air, then tries to yank Mara to himself with the Force before dive-kicking her back into the ground.


Zelda takes the Sword of the Six Sages. "I'm not playing your games. If anything happens to you... you shouldn't have gotten involved in the first place."

She rides off before Anna can say anything in response.

Chaka: Are you a warrior, little ghost? You carry a rather peculiar weapon.

Chaka says, looking at the sword the short figure carried on his body.

Mara gets yanked up and uses her arms to take some of the impact of Narktus' dive kick. She falls down, but as she's about to hit the ground, she throws her swords up into the air, holds out her hands, lands and pushes herself up again before the rest of her reaches the ground, flipping over in mid-air before landing on her feet.

She then holds out her hands to her sides to catch her swords as they fall, after which she does a horizontal spin and throws the swords at Narktus.


Anna crosses her arms as Zelda leaves, tilting her head.

"... eh, well, I guess I'll just say she robbed me then."

She turns around and pockets the Rupees.

"And if that thief tries to get violent with me over it, I'll just have to deal with him. Wonder how shocked miss royalty would be if I did what her special sword couldn't.", she mutters, chuckling to herself. She then finishes up and climbs into the ballista.

"They should be back in less than 15 minutes by this point. I'll just wait in here~"

"This guy, Shigaraki, is working with someone that my friends and I are trying to stop before he carries out whatever evil plan he's whipping up," Pietro explains. "Sounds like you know something about him."

He's a part of the League of Vilains. I can't tell you much more though, since he's gone quiet recently and I never really approached him.

"Hold on, did you say League of Villains? Great, that means he must've brought Horse Head some new flunkies..." Pietro shakes his head. "Yeah, if Shigaraki's gone quiet, I'd say it's probably because he joined up with this god of evil named Set."

No. He's been below the radar for a while now, but the league seems to be active.

He just raise a curious eyebrow when Set comes up.

   "Oh, this?"   

He grabs the Pure Nail off his back, giving it a quick one-handed flourish before setting it back where it sits. Despite the weapon's bulky shape, it appears to be quite light, swishing around in the air easily.

   "It's been through some stuff, all right. What about you? You've got a perfectly fine nail, too."

"Remember when I told you that this place could get weird? Yeah, the Egyptian god of evil himself went and formed a cabal that Shigaraki decided to sign up for," Pietro says. "Say, who else is a part of this League? I wanna know in case Shigaraki decided to bring any of them along for the ride."

"And I shan't judge you for simply not feeling up to it, Rey. Gods don't always have clear minds and clear hearts, either," Tiamat said, sending one of her aspects over to grab a drink or perhaps a snack. "Would you like a drink?"

"Aye... Say, Tiamat, do you play video games?"

Tiamat looked at him like he had a second nose. "Of course I play video games. My boss hasn't been able to teleport paperwork into my lap so easily lately, so I've found myself with plenty of free time to explore more interesting activities — like games."

From some unseen realm, she produced a myriad assortment of controllers. "Why do you ask?"

There's Dabi with fire, Toga who can shapeshift if she drink blood, Mr.Compress who can turn objects or people into balls of a sort, Spinner... who is a lizard, Kurogiri, who can make portals using his own body and Twice, who make clones of himself or other people.

"Dabi the pyro, Toga the shapeshifting vampire, Compress the ballmaker, Spinner the lizard man, Kurogiri the walking portal and Twice the cloner... Heh, with a name like Spinner, he sounds like he should be really good at spinning," Pietro remarks. "Anyway, thanks for telling me this, Shoto. Before you head out, let me give you some advice: look out for any flying, angel-like robots."
