Earth: Ireland

James sighed and put the sword down on one of the tables littering the hallway. Just a kid...."Alright, kid, I don't know who you are or how you got in here, but I won't call your parents or the authorities if you leave now. Jesus Christ, scared the living shit out of me. How the hell did you get in here anyway?" He asked, opening the door all the way and letting light into the bathroom, which had previously been almost completely dark save for the few cracks of light ebbing in through the closed blinds. Light fell on the boy and James couldn't help but think of how ill the boy looked, "Are you alright? You look kinda pale. Do you need to go see a doctor?"

Earth: The Beach

"Excellent. But as much as I'd love to take your word on it, I'd prefer to have your word sealed in a Relequistian pact ritual, if you wouldn't mind." She said, ungloving her hand and revealing a manner of criss-crossed scars in her skin, "As for your questions, human, please do make them interesting. I do not have patience for answering inane questions that will accomplish nothing." She said as she turned back to Sorcha and reached her hand out toward the Princess, "Match your hand with mine, with the small finger's side touching my wrist. It will be quick and relatively painless, but our promises will be those of blood. I do not break my oaths."

Concordia: Tournament Grounds

Kiel watched Shien's fight and then Valius' challenge with dull eyes. The tournament was meant to be fun, but mere humans were no fun at all. They were so slow, so weak...He wondered why he had thought that any of the tournament's patrons would prove him wrong. However, he did enjoy watching Shien challenge the combatants to battle. It would be interesting to see if he was really as good as they claimed he was. In truth, he couldn't really remember seeing the man fight. Maybe it was his disinterest in humans in general for their squishy bodies and crushable bones.
