At the tear between the Outerverse and the Prison Dimension, a black man-shaped set of armor teleports in, giving off a strange feeling of foreboding as he stands at the gate between the two very, very different dimensions. Holding up his right hand, a bracelet of some sort underneath the armor starts to glow, and an AAM field forms within the Prison, shaping itself to stretch to the nearest Aralang. Through it, a magically-carried verbal demand echoes through the man's ears.

"I demand to be brought to see Ms. Hikaru Tyris. We all have felt the outburst, and I am sent to ensure her safety. Should you not cooperate, I shall force the issue. Have a superior meet me at the Gate within one hour to discuss."

The Aralang telepathically replied, "I'm sorry, but we don't know where she is. The last place we know where she went was in the Sage Dimension."

The attempt at telepathy is repaid nearly instantly with a massive backlash, plenty powerful enough to cause a human's head to pop like a balloon. To an Aralang, almost definitely extensive brain damage. A reaction far to quick to have been anything but an already active spell. "Once again. Discussions will be made with a superior that is to come and meet with me in person, conversing verbally unless another method is required by situation."

Gaserlake · « **Reply #3 on:** November 12, 2010, 11:02:40 PM »

The Aralang was taken to the hospital to treat the damage.

Another Aralang came, this time the head of the station. He was an Elite Aralang, too. He telepathically spoke to the man. This time, the rest of his mind was blocked off, which protected him from any further telepathic attacks. "What is the meaning of this? You don't treat people like this, especially if you want to learn something from them! What my fellow Aralang said is all I know, so you can go now, and don't do that again!"

Nisorin · « **Reply #4 on:** November 12, 2010, 11:15:34 PM »

The already-cast spell, part of the usual near-constant array of enchantments the ever-wary Kerion had cast on himself, attempted to fire back at this new Aralang as well, finding itself blocked off. Instead, it uses the same energy to block off Kerion's own mind from any outside connections, friendly or otherwise. "It is a precautionary enchantment I have cast on a nearly 24/7 basis." He calls out verbally, and quite loudly, as if trying to make a point with his words. "It reacts faster than I can, and if you want to attempt to connect to the mind of a mage without his or her permission, you deserve to be attacked, regardless of your intentions. You Aralangs need to learn this, or more injuries like his will occur, whether you like it or not.

"As for the fact that what he said was all you knew, I was unable to sense what he said due to the aforementioned spell. And considering the fact that I specifically asked to speak, in person, with a superior, I would not have trusted anything he had said anyway. Now, I am seeking Ms. Hikaru Tyris, formerly imprisoned here in this dimension for an unlawful, unethical, and unreasonable term under similarly unreasonable conditions. Both myself and the woman I am here on the behalf of are willing to overlook that fact. We know you are still trailing her. We know you are still tracking her, and we know she was in the company of Gaserlake Letanson prior to her battle in the Plex Tournament, in Hell. She disappeared during her match, which destroyed most of Hell, and Mr. Letanson was nowhere to be found. Then, a short while ago, Mr. and Mrs. Lertis sensed the outburst from her, which was curiously like a spell often used by mages as a sort of magical distress beacon. The spell is colloquially nicknamed Baby's Cry. Because of the situation surrounding her disappearance, we have presumed, most likely quite accurately, that she is still with Gaserlake Letanson, and thus would most likely now be on Aralian territory. As Aralia has been consumed, this is the only Aralian territory confirmed by the Sons of Plunder and which we have access to. I wish to be taken to Ms. Tyris and Mr. Letanson, and if you do not comply, within applicable reason, I will be forced to take violent and hostile actions to force the issue."

After finding the telepathic connection blocked, he then yelled. "Are you stupid? You spoke to someone telepathically, yet you don't want people to telepathically respond back to you? Don't be a damn hypocrite! You're the one that established the connection, so expect the other to use it!" He then shook his head. "Her last known location was in the Sage Dimension. That's all the Aralang knew, and that's all I know!"

Nisorin · « **Reply #6 on:** November 13, 2010, 12:06:11 AM »

He chuckles and shakes his head, surprised at the misunderstanding. "My original message was made verbally, the sound magically directed into the nearest Aralang's ears. That is using actual sound waves, not a telepathic connection. I opened nothing. If I was the one to open the telepathic conversation, my spell would not have fired. Now, I assume you keep track of where your own leader is, in case he is needed? As I'd explained, Ms. Tyris would most likely be with Gaserlake Letanson, your current equivalent of an Emperor."

((Nice mistake dude. Just made your station head look like an idiot.))

Gaserlake · « **Reply #7 on:** November 13, 2010, 01:31:23 AM »

(Meh. I've done worse.)

"Ah, whoops," the Elite Aralang said after his mistake. "Anyway, no. I don't know where he is. The last I've seen him was in the Sage Dimension, with her. I guess it's safe to assume that he's still with her."

Nisorin · « **Reply #8 on:** November 13, 2010, 01:35:12 AM »

He seems to mull the information over for a few seconds, before revealing his face, covered in a violet crystalline mask. "You have three hours to find out where they are, or I will force the issue, tearing your station apart in search, using your technology to find the next Aralian dimension nearby, and continuing the cycle until I find her."

Gaserlake · « **Reply #9 on:** November 14, 2010, 04:51:39 PM »

"Three hours to find one person in what? Billions of dimensions? Even more? Hell no." He then looked away for a few seconds, then looked back. He sighed. "Not even his own brother knows where he is. But I can give you one suggestion. It's in one dimension that I know about. I can give you the coordinates of the dimension, but it would be hella hard to enter without Aralang technology."

Nisorin · « **Reply #10 on:** November 14, 2010, 06:49:15 PM »

"Then give me the coordinates, and let them know that I am coming. Entering will not be a problem." He says, tossing in an old Relorian datapad, an obsolete model with signs of heavy wear. "I am afraid I have little time to waste."

Gaserlake · « **Reply #11 on:** November 15, 2010, 08:01:53 AM »

"Wait!" the Elite Aralang said in surprise. "They're here! Hikaru and Gaserlake are here! Well, looks like you're lucky." Moments later Gaserlake and Hikaru were beamed to the rip. "Ah! Nice timing, you two!" he cheerfully said.

"What's this about?" Gaserlake asked the Relorian.

Nisorin · « **Reply #12 on:** November 15, 2010, 08:22:04 PM »

Completely ignoring both Aralangs, Kerion turns on his heel and falls to one knee before Hikaru. "I am here on the behalf of Celestie Lertis. From the other signatures sensed in the area when you let out that pulse, as well as analysis on the various different types of magic within said pulse, we were able to deduce that it was, indeed you. And, since you were last seen with Mr. Gaserlake Letanson, I was asked to come here to investigate for foul play, and if it is safe, inform you of her current actions."

Queen Bright · « **Reply #13 on:** November 16, 2010, 03:15:34 AM »

At the sight of the Elite, Hikaru wanted to cringe, but instead ignored the impulse and directed her attention to Kerion, instead, hoping the feeling would pass. While looking him directly in the eyes, Hikaru tilted her head down just enough to show respect, but still hold superiority. "No foul play.. yet" She said. "It's kind of a long story. You can tell Celestie this, 'The match in Hell led to outside Existence. The only way back was through the Sage Dimension. The pulse was by mere accident. K-" She paused and looked away, " Destruction, must be stopped at all costs. Which is why I cannot afford to talk long. I MUST locate the Anrufe and obtain the Mark of Eternity, it's the last key to the seal.' Till then, if Celestie requires assistance, my apprentice Inari should still be in Hell. And if Inari is not enough, find Hikari."

Nisorin · « **Reply #14 on:** November 16, 2010, 03:29:30 AM »

He stands straight, seeming slightly taller than before. "That is what she wished me to tell you, milady. Her and Nisorin are calling Embodiments back to their old home. Hell was, prior to Destruction's rebellion, a city for the Embodiments. They have discovered the main area, and are calling the Embodiments for judgement. Many of them have forgotten their purpose, and the dimensions are suffering for it. They wish to call them out on their dereliction of duty. Destruction included. They would ask your assistance, for they believe it most fitting."

Queen Bright · « **Reply #15 on:** November 16, 2010, 03:38:21 AM »

"City?" Hikaru looked surprised for a moment then nodded. "Ah, so that's why Lucifer refused to explain. The one uncovered from the match, I assume?" She shifted her eyes to the two Aralangs before looking back at him, "Anyways, if... events allow it, I'll be there as soon as I find the Mark. Without that, we're useless against Destruction. The mark and Revelation magic are the two keys to the seal. If Destruction has either, he can break the seal. I have the first key, the Magic of Revelation. I intend to obtain the second key as soon as possible."

Gaserlake · « **Reply #16 on:** November 17, 2010, 01:33:33 AM »

Seeing as he was ignored, Gaserlake let that go. They were already in a middle of a subject.

Nisorin · « **Reply #17 on:** November 17, 2010, 02:10:36 AM »

"We will make sure that we provide adequate protection for your children then. They are currently here with our Shaman, working to regain their lost magic." He promises, glancing at the Aralang leader, standing behind them silently like a fool. "Our kin have decided to fulfil the war they have promised for your actions here in the Outerverse and in Celestie's home. You said wished to prevent a war, yet you did nothing to stop it. And so, now, we will not stop. You talk as if you wish for peace, yet your actions provoke war. Now you pay for your actions. The next time we meet, Mr. Letanson, will be on the battlefield, as foes. I look forward to oiling my blades with your blood."

Queen Bright · « **Reply #18 on:** November 17, 2010, 02:38:15 AM »

"Kotah and Ezael are not the only ones here," Hikaru stepped into the Outerverse, her attention seemingly distracted. "Kai's here as well?" Once through the rip, Hikaru glanced about, taking in the familiar feel of the Outerverse its self, and the different signatures she felt throughout it. Her children, Kai, their Granfather, and several others that she could only guess could be the 'Shaman,' he spoke of and his friends.

While the others rambled, Hikaru turned back and took time to admire the rip. Jagged on the edges, and the size of one entire dimensional wall gone, just by standing near it, one could feel the sheer power that was used to thread it together; holding it together and keeping it intact for eternity. Even in her weakened state, and no time to spare, Hikaru had managed to pull together all her magic and break through the walls of the dimension. A feat that clearly marked the power of the Sage Three. If she could do this alone, one could only imagine what they could do working together.

Of course, not that the Sage Three would ever ally long enough to perform such acts. Not likely, anyways.

"If there is a war," Hikaru interrupted, walking to the edge of the Outerverse side of the rip, but not walking back through. "It will be fought by the honor of the Sage Three. Celestie may be a friend, but it is to us and our family that these incompetent fools have wronged. Despite their technological defilement to magic, and their self-proclaimed attempts to meddle and throw laws onto those they don't control. They have done nothing that harbors the war by your people, and as eldest of the Sage Three, I demand it cease, until we of the Sage Three are able to pick it up ourselves. It is our honor to restore, not the business of the rest of the Dimension."

Gaserlake · « **Reply #19 on:** November 17, 2010, 03:20:08 AM »

Gaserlake and the Elite both exchanged looks. "Hang on," Gaserlake said after turning back to the Relorian. "What exactly are the reasons for waging war on me? You're sounding like I did a lot more than what I did to Hikaru. Her children? I didn't know it was happening. What else?"

The other Elite Aralang showed surprise at what Hikaru said. He was about to say something until he saw Gaserlake gesturing him not to say anything.

"Of course," Gaserlake said to Hikaru, "It's a personal thing. Don't want others involved."

Nisorin · « **Reply #20 on:** November 17, 2010, 03:26:27 AM »

Kerion's arm twitches as he listens to Hikaru's demand, and he shakes his head once she finishes. "You may be one of the most powerful mages around, Ms. Tyris, but that does not mean you lead us. They have attacked the home of Nisorin and Celestie Lertis, with zero provocation, they have attacked her personally, as well as Verrtsi Trolec, here in the Outerverse. Their actions are not going to go unpunished, and not even you have the right to demand we stop. Your power does not mean you can simply push us around." He replies, before turning to Gaserlake. "You are the leader of the Aralangs in the Mortal Dimension, correct? Then you need to learn to keep track of your own men. Their actions reflect upon yourself, and your skills as a leader."

Gaserlake · « **Reply #21 on:** November 17, 2010, 03:31:50 AM »

"The one Aralia is in? Yes. If my own guys did it, I would have thought of it," Gaserlake argued. He hesitated for a moment after thought of something. "Ooohh... The Aralang Special Forces. It must be them. They aren't exactly under my command. Sorry, dude. If they really wanted to attack you that badly and they did attack you, little chance they would listen to me. Yes, I'm a great leader, with a lot of influence and respect, but I'm not THE leader, if you want to put it that way."

Nisorin · « **Reply #22 on:** November 17, 2010, 03:41:31 AM »

He chuckles and shakes his head once again, obviously thinking the excuse to be just that, an excuse. "Then you might want to get your men out of Kalak, and call in your better half." He says, before turning around to leave. "Ms. Tyris. It would seem that our fight is with the other side of the coin from yours, therefore I foresee our war causing no interference with your own. Fight well, milady." He says, before promptly teleporting away, making sure to relay the entirety of the conversation to Celestie upon arrival at his destination."

Queen Bright · « **Reply #23 on:** November 17, 2010, 03:53:53 AM »

Hikaru was in shock. Did that honestly just happen? Did that mage have the nerve to tell her, Hikaru Tyris, eldest of The Sage Three, off?! Hikaru wouldn't tolerate that. Being a friend of Celestie or not, she was NOT going to allow that to slide just like that. Did he even know who the HELL he was dealing with? The Sage Three once completely owned this entire dimension within their power! Unlike the damn self-proclaimed do-gooders before her, the Sage Three had actually had THE RIGHT to set laws and have them followed. They owned owned it to do so.

"Grrr..." Turning to where she could sense Kai's magic signature, Hikaru sent out a quick telepathic message to her brother, wherever he was in the Outerverse. "Kai! Whenever you're able, find K2323 and meet with me in the former planet of Astran. We have things which need to be discussed. Do NOT pass this to anyone that is not of our family!"

When the message had been sent, Hikaru turned back to the rip and just stood there, waiting, her arms crossed, and an expression of utter disgust across her face.

Gaserlake · « **Reply #24 on:** November 17, 2010, 05:00:51 AM »

Seeing that the issue is done, the Elite Aralang returned to his duty.

Gaserlake detected the telepathic message. Gaserlake read what it was, but he ignored it. The other Elite Aralang, however, detected it, too, as well as every other Aralang near. It was normal. Their minds are like telepathic radars. Gaserlake telepathically told the Aralangs to disregard the message, and they did.

"Who was he, anyway?" Gaserlake asked Hikaru.
