Antonio would arrive in the grand hall of the palace, in the presence of Insana and Tera. "Insana! I need your urgent attention!" Antonio blurted out as he approached the throne. In another flash of light, Antonio turned in surprise as he was now looking at K2323 who had just arrived at the other end.

"What is the meaning of this!" Tera yelled. "Insana?"

K2 · « **Reply #1 on:** September 24, 2012, 12:14:56 PM »

"Right then," K2323 stated, Genesis Staff still in hand, a white aura still around him, "Where were we? Pardon me, the b-"

He paused. His memories from his time as an embodiment were mostly gone due to the face that he and the embodiment had split when the embodiment died. However; something was odd about all of this. He knew that he was in the presence of an embodiment. The question was, which embodiment was it?

"Pardon me, your grace," he stated, glaring back and forth between Tera and Insana, trying to distinguish which one was the embodiment, "This guy here has something that doesn't belong to him, and we were settling our differences. I did not mean to intrude."

He glared at Antonio. "I would suggest we end this now."

"Countess, please deal with the General. I'll handle the Sage." Insana commanded. In a puff of purple smoke Insana was next to K2323. "Lets talk." Insana said. The enviornment around Insana and K2 began to melt away to the desolate landscape of deep Dementia.

------------------------

Tera Lazily got up, and walked towards Antonio. "Everytime Antonio... everytime you arrive, something always has to follow you hear doesnt it." she says fustrated with him.

"Maybe I just have that affect on people." he replies jokingly.

In a swift motion, Antonio found himself pinned against the wall by his neck by Tera. "Listen Demon... Insana may put up with your bullshit, but I will not allow you to manipulate him like so many others you cretin." she yelled at him.

"Your Grace, please clam yourself." he replied in slight fear.

"No." she shouted back. "I know you more than you know. That Sage was after you i assume?" she asked.

"Kind of..." he replied.

She responded by slamming him back into the wall. "Bullshit." she said,.

"Alright, alright. I have his sister's soul. Ms. Hikaru Tyris' soul to be exact." he confessed.

She simply shook her head in disappointment. "You never know when to stop. Give me a reason not to end you right now." she said.

"Truthfully? Because i outrank you, Tera. You are an Agent of Insanity. I am an Agent of Destruction. Therefore, you, being the subordinate power, are under me in the great ancient hierarchy." he explains. "And as an Agent of Destruction, I can and will order you to stand down when Insana returns. Mark my words Mikami. This is much bigger than you."

"Right," K2323 replied, now certain that Insana was the embodiment as they shifted into deep Dementia. The question was, what embodiment was he? Confusion? No, the feeling he had was more chaotic... Only, it wasn't CHAOS that he was feeling, so what was it?

"I presume you knew me when Fatet and I were one in the same, sir," K2323 noted, "As such, I hope you may show me the same respect that you showed her, seeing as there was a time when she and I were one in the same. That said, the one named Antonio. He has my sister's soul. He received it from Radical, who stole it from her."

"From your look, you are trying to determine which embodiment i am, i assume i am correct." Insana says, ignoring K2's statement for the moment. "I am Insana Primoris... the Embodiment of Insanity." he introduces himself. "And as for your sister's soul, why was she not able to protect herself from Radical? I believe this is Hikaru Tyris we are talking about, correct?"

K2 · « **Reply #5 on:** September 29, 2012, 04:50:36 PM »

The embodiment of insanity. Well, that was interesting. Of course, it made this particularly more troubling. Dealing with this guy would be tough. Things like ration probably would not matter to him. So, how would one approach this kind of situation?

"I do not know the exact details," he replied, "If I understand correctly, she was tricked by Radical. I believe she was originally traded to Radical from some enemy who managed to defeat her. Make no mistake, sir, we can be defeated. It's just... Not easy. My sister is weaker than I am, after all."

"Survival of the Fittest Mr. Tyris... If General Stradivari requires the use of her soul, then who am i to take it away?" Insana replied.

K2 · « **Reply #7 on:** October 01, 2012, 02:20:41 PM »

"Of course," K2323 replied, "I understand that you are bound by very powerful, ancient laws that prevent you from interfering on this sort of thing. There was a time when you could chose to ignore those laws. However; after the Plexan war, I'm afraid you are probably less willing to go out on a limb for me. All I ask is that you do not give this man refuge, sir. Let he and I settle our differences."

"One which you are correct to assume. While i am not the biggest fan of order, the ancient embodiment laws are the exception... well most of them. " he gives a slight smile. "However, if it is differences you wish to settle, may i be so bold as to propose something?" Insana asked.

K2 · « **Reply #9 on:** October 02, 2012, 12:19:44 PM »

"By all means," K2323 replied, raising his eyebrow.

Admiral Regis Hermitage · « **Reply #10 on:** October 02, 2012, 10:43:07 PM »

"If you can accomplish a simple task, you will be able to settle your differences in a court of battle." Insana proposed. "Knowing you, and knowing him, it should be an interesting fight indeed."

K2 · « **Reply #11 on:** October 03, 2012, 02:05:21 PM »

"A simple task?" he asked. "What simple task?"

Admiral Regis Hermitage · « **Reply #12 on:** October 04, 2012, 04:27:28 AM »

"There is a book that i want to read." Insana says. "Go forth to the Records of Time, and check out the book on The Embodiment of Revenge. As i do not require the actual book, you may bring a suitable copy. Is this agreeable?"

K2 · « **Reply #13 on:** October 04, 2012, 03:50:23 PM »

"Fine," K2323 replied, rolling his eyes, "I'd bind you to a blood contract but for some reason I feel it'd be useless even if you had real blood to speak of."

And with that, he shut his eyes. No, he was not actually leaving -- it was very possible that if he did, Insana wouldn't allow him to enter again -- but he instead began to concentrate on creating a holographic form of him. Where? Somewhere else. Somewhere far off.

Admiral Regis Hermitage · « **Reply #14 on:** October 04, 2012, 04:41:50 PM »

"Happy that we can come ti an agreement." Insana says.

Days had passed, and K2323 had grown tired of trying to find Jay, being the busy Templar he was, but finally, Jay appeared with a poof, a silver glow echoing off his body as he held a bottle of scotch in one hand and wore a sombrero upon his head. He was a bit surprised about his surroundings and, realizing this, disappeared for a brief second before reappearing with less party attire.

"'Sup!" he greeted Insana and K2323, walking over to give his old friend K2323 a bro-hug. "I don't usually make house calls to embodiments, but, y'know."

"Ah yes... Greetings Agent of Time. I am Insana Primoris, the Embodiment of Insanity." he introduced himself. "I have a book i would like to check out from the records."

K2 · « **Reply #18 on:** December 02, 2012, 12:56:04 PM »

"Right, yeah, well, I can't let you just, y'know, check a book out, that messes with the whole neutral-timey-balance-of-power-thing. I can maybe give you some help, I guess. What book d'ya want?" Jay questioned.

Admiral Regis Hermitage · « **Reply #19 on:** December 03, 2012, 04:23:15 AM »

"Its the one about the Embodiment of Revenge..." Insana said. "I have a very keen interest in what he has been up to recently.'

K2 · « **Reply #20 on:** December 03, 2012, 09:55:47 AM »

"Yeah," Jay replied, "I think that's exactly what I'm not supposed to do, yo. That would get me in some real trouble with the Lady, if you catch my drift. Why, what's going on with this embodiment guy? Revenge, you say? Haven't met him, sounds like he throws an awesome party, though," he explained as the book appeared in his hand, his eyes darting across the pages, reading about the recent attacks.

Admiral Regis Hermitage · « **Reply #21 on:** December 03, 2012, 06:13:22 PM »

"Call me crazy, but i do believe that revenge is mounting a war on the plane." Insana said. "He came to my Ballroom in the Planes to recruit my help, to which i denied considering my deep infatuation for the Lady's sister, Skye."

"Now, i know that last thing you and Lady Time would want is for her dear sister to feel the pain that will soon come, correct?"

K2 · « **Reply #22 on:** December 04, 2012, 04:21:27 PM »

Jay couldn't help but let out a laugh. "Listen, mate, if you're going to try to guilt me into giving you this book, it's not going to work, but seeing as this guy's messing with the plane, it's your lucky day, 'cause now I kinda have to help. Y'know, being a Templar and all. I can't just go off and give anyone who wants a book, though, I'm not a library, bro. But I can go with you and help you deal with whatever problems you've got with this guy, I think I need to have a little talk with him myself."

"Well, if you are willing to stay for dinner, I can get him to come." Insana says confidently.
