Introduction
The Story
In the East of the world map lays a kingdom named Winterfall. It is not a peaceful kingdom and it had to endure many, many wars in the past. Other countries want its resources and they went to great length in order to archive it, creating many wars just so they could cut apart Winterfall and take the country for themselves. Just when the wars ended and people thought they could a peaceful life, a civil war exploded, forcing the already weak country to undergo another pointless war. The royalty fought each other, killing each other so that they could have the throne. The war tore the country apart, unknowingly created a perfect chance for the neighbor countries to take advantage of.
Once again, Winterfall went to war even if it hadn’t had the chance to recover from the last war. Many people died and very few survived. The kingdom prepared to fall for good. But…in the endless darkness of the night, there was a light. A young but talented boy with a kind heart decided to end the kingdom’s suffering by rebelling and unifying the kingdom. He was successful. The kingdom had become one again and all the other countries had to back off. He becomes the king of Winterfall and is a very good king, earning respect from many people. But even so, not all people love him. The remains of the royalty hate him and want to take over him, kill him, dispose of him…there are many assassinate attempts on the king’s life, so many attempts that the normal guards can’t even protect the king safely anymore. Depressed situations call depressed measures as the king has to choose 12 people…12 special people to protect him, be his guardians, be his protectors.
Those 12 are not the same. Each of them is special in their own ways and they all seem to be very loyal to the king. They all signed a contract. They serve the king for 5 years and they will receive a lot of money, power and many things else. Each 5 year, they have to renew the contract if they want to continue to serve the king. The contract is signed by their own blood. There are 5 rules to the contract:
- 1/You have to protect the king with your own life.
2/You do not disobey a direct order.
3/The king’s family is his life. Protect them like you protect the king.
4/You cannot kill or permanently harm your fellow guardians.
5/Take your jobs seriously. You do not only protect the king but you also have to take missions for him, missions that can start another civil war if you just so much as speak the wrong words and therefore, be serious when you do them.
Winterfall Kingdom
Despite having a very ‘cold’ name, Winterfall is a very beautiful country. With endless forests and blue lakes, it is both very rich in resources as well as wealth. However, it is very weak in military and is a peaceful country in general. There are savage beasts living in the dark forests on the outskirt of kingdom though no one really wants to visit those forests. The technology in the kingdom is not developed and people have to travel by horses or use birds to deliver mails. There are witches, werewolves, vampires, demons and other magical creatures in the kingdom though they are rarely seen so people tend to forget they exist. Most people here are normal with no power or extraordinary talents though there are exceptions. There are people who have developed a special skill over the years. Maybe it’s just the gene, maybe it’s a curse or blessing…either way, they have power but they tend to have…shorter lifespan than normal people.
The country has just been unified for 3 years and the guardians have just been selected for a month. Therefore, it is not stable yet and there are many chances that another war will explode. The story will start when all the guardians meet each other for the first time.

✪ Use anime picture(s). Please don't use anything else but anime picture(s)
✪ Don't make more than 2 guardians. You can make 2 characters top. One guardian and another one that is not a guardian.

The Story So Far... Write a Post » as written by 20 authors
Lithos Terra ~ The Castle
Lithos eventually ate all of the candy he had in his pockets in his wait. He turned to the others and saw that more guardians arrived. He then walked pass them toward his cart outside, only to discover a...not so clean sight. He saw dead bodies before, especially during the wars before.
"YIKES!" he screeched. He looked everywhere near his area who could help, but he was a guardian now. He was help. He scanned the scene and saw that it occurred a few moments ago. Judging by the positions of the bodies and splatters of blood, it seemed to be an assassin attack. He rushed to the ballroom to the other guardians.
"Fellow...Guardians..." he panted, he swore that he never ran so fast in his life, "...we have...a problem...outside. D-Dead bodies...at gate...Hikari...missing...don't know where...please..." He nearly collapsed, if it were not for the sword from a broken statue he saw the other day. He was able to stand up straight but had to use the sword as a walking stick. "We've...got to...find...her." he said, not expecting everyone to assist him.

Setz Cerves ~ Ballroom
Although he would only show it over his dead body, Setz was impressed with the place. The ballroom was much more spacious and ornate than even the luxurious foyer. He honestly handn't been expecting this, even from a palace. Well, one should never assume, he reminded himself. He settled for leaning against one of the ornate walls and gazing about the ballroom, observing his fellow guardians. Despite the fact that he'd been watching, he failed to notice the woman leave. Her disappearance was only just brought to his attention when another guardian came running into the ballroom announcing it. "Fellow...Guardians..." he was panting like a dog, as though he'd just witnessed a great shock. Setz raised an eyebrow at the urgency. "...we have...a problem...outside. D-Dead bodies...at gate...Hikari...missing...don't know where...please..." At this point, he began using his sword for support. He looked on the verge of collapsing. Dead bodies? The woman was missing? How... intriguing. Setz nodded, showing his attetnion was focused on the other guardian. He stood up straight and stopped leaning on the wall, then approached the man's side. "Well, this seems most urgent." He looked up at the others. "We'd best get a move on, yes?"
Claire Sawyer ~ Ballroom
Claire looked up as Lithos ran into the room, panting as if he had ran a marathon. "Fellow...Guardians... we have...a problem...outside. D-Dead bodies...at gate...Hikari...missing...don't know where...please..." She had noticed the blond woman leave but didn't feel any reason to follow her. One of the other guardians crossed the room to the panting boy. "Well, this seems most urgent. We'd best get a move on, yes?"
Claire crossed over to the two others and addressed the room as a whole. "If we are to pursue the woman and whatever has caused all this slaughter. I would suggest that some of us stay here in case the King comes down to meet us or he is need of protection. I personnally vounteer to stay back to watch for trouble. The rest of you can make your own decision on that to do. I will stay here, just in case." She nodded to Lithos and Setz and left the ballroom in search of the King.
The setting changes from The Kingdom of Winterfall to Snowflake City
Akronea – Snowflake City
Throughout the rather odd moment of the girl's actions, Akronea found herself stumbling upon the words that had been spoken. Clemency? Innocent? Prospect? None of these registered amongst the childish vocabulary of the Elemental, though the general message was still easily understood, and that was where the girl had made her mistake. The beginning had left Akronea satisfied with the girl's submission, though the obvious ramblings of the slow death inherent to all Elementals was rather unnecessary. Unfortunately, after feeling the touch upon her hand, the girl had spouted something that seemed remarkably similar to an order. This would not bode well for the woman clad in white.
The inquisitive face she had worn throughout the one-sided dialogue was not replaced with one of annoyance; she wouldn't stand for those beneath her issuing orders. Since the girl in white had already closed the distance, the next part came quickly. The powerful hand that had tossed aside guard after guard sprang forward and clutched the girl's neck, lifting her into the air. "I will not hear one in submission giving me orders." As she spoke the wicked tail that had been passively moving behind her lifted itself and leveled off to the right of Akronea's head, the ending point mere inches away from the girl's face. "Submit or I mix your blood with that of a thousand men." The echoes of the soon to be slaughtered guards were fast approaching and to ensure that an answer was heard, the powerful hand lessened its grip upon the neck and instead held the girl up by the bottom of her chin.
With her threat clearly heard, her tail added to the intimidation by pressing its very tip against the notch at the base of her throat. So far no blood was drawn but the tip was beginning its slow descent and would tear any obstruction that it was met with. With this the smirk returned to Akronea; she was sure this would be the end of it.

Kyran Devine *** Ballroom
Kyran looked up, slightly alarmed as the person came running. He recognized him as Lithos... but wasn't positive. "Fellow...Guardians... we have...a problem...outside. D-Dead bodies...at gate...Hikari...missing...don't know where...please..." Well... Kyran wasn't sure exactly who Hikari was, but by the way the guy seemed, she must have been pretty important.
"Just breathe, catch your breath. I'm sure we'll find her." Kyran tried to sound reassuring as he backed out toward the exit. Then Setz said something but Kyran barely heard him. He was already walking out. What was the point of talking when actions meant so much more... especially in a time like this? His pale blue eyes widened at the sight of the blood splashed all over. He sure had not been exaggerating. Bending his knees slightly, basically on instinct, Kyran produced a simple but sharp looking knife. It was always best to be prepared. Then he remembered. Hikari was the light guardian. Crap. They'd better find her quickly. She was an important asset to the team. Had he talked to her before? Kyran wasn't sure. But they were colleagues now and that had to mean something.
He expertly surveyed the scene. Where could she have been taken to? They must've been strong if they caused such a mess...
Hikari Neshomaru
Hikari peered down at the girl who clutched her neck. Her legs suspended in the air, she said, "I have already submitted to you, fair Akronea." A pleasant smile grew on her face, almost mockingly, but not quite. "Now, I was simply saying that we should leave this place, before my fellow guardians come, and put an end to you."
Hikari would not give this demon the satisfaction she desired. She wanted to see Hikari scream. She wanted to see Hikari beg for her life. She wanted to diminish Hikari until she was nothing but a ghost of her former self. Well, Hikari would not have it. In fact, she would rather die.
She knew the danger, the prospect of her imminent death. Although, it all did not seem to register to her, even with the pointed tip of Akronea's tail glistening with beads of blood that belonged to her.
Lithos Terra ~ The Castle
Lithos found it hard to calm down. Hikari was someone who assisted him in getting inside, which was very important. He knew he had to do something in return. He saw that some of his fellow guardians began to act, and saw the urgency to assist them.He turned to the others who didn't even speak and spoke.
"Well, what are you waiting for?" he told them. He turned to Setz, "Come with me."
He then ran to Kyran. He had to admit, seeing the corpses again was still as horrific as the first time.
"She left a few moments ago..." Lithos coughed, he placed down his sword for a moment and went to his cart, "...I should have followed her. *cough*cough* I could have stopped that...fiend who has caused this bloodshed on such a peaceful land. Any guesses where she could have gone?"
Kyran Devine*** THe Castle
Kyran heard the other guardian run up behind him and turned his light blue eyes to Lithos.
"She left a few moments ago..." Lithos coughed, he placed down his sword for a moment and went to his cart, "...I should have followed her. *cough*cough* I could have stopped that...fiend who has caused this bloodshed on such a peaceful land. Any guesses where she could have gone?"
He shouldn't blame himself. This was out of his control. Kyran turned to him with a small reassuring smile.
"No. You did the right thing. If Hikari was taken so easily, I'm sure it is a very strong opponent." Kyran pondered the question for a moment. "It can't have been too long. I'm sure they are still in Snowflake Citty somewhere. The two couldn't have gone far." He surveyed the scene again and felt a wave of revulsion. What a heartless person.... "If we split up, maybe in pairs, I'm sure we'll be able to find her." It was just a suggestion. Kyran had never really been asked for his opinion. He was a listener that was able to follow directions almost perfectly. A teacher's star pupil they called him.... every parent's dream child. However.. maybe it was time KYran grew out of that shell.
Lithos Terra ~ Castle Ground
Lithos nodded to Kyran, "First, we need more companions. Judging by the looks of it, their killer is fast and clean, like an assassin. But, it seems whoever did this had quite the body heat."
He brought out his gauntlets and a stone shield. His smooth hands slipped into the tough, bulky gauntlets that were his father's. The feeling of stronger hands made him more comfortable in a way that he became confident he could fight.
"A while ago, before Hikari left, I felt movement in the earth. Not only that, I also felt something heavy and fast. It could be anything, but I have a feeling the being we are looking for." Lithos said, "Anyway, if we're dealing with anything powerful and could lift rocks, it's no problem. I'm the Guardian of Earth, I know rocks."
Setz Cerves ~ Castle
Setz allowed a small smile after Lithos spoke. "That's awfully convenient," he noted, gazing around the crime scene, making his own observations. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a pair of fingerless gloves. They weren't necessary, he just liked them, admittedly. He put them on as he strode about, almost pacing. "Heavy and fast... Everything leaves a trail, wouldn't you agree? They can't have gotten too far, anyhow..." he trailed off as he paused his pacing, observing the scene with narrow eyes. Most amusing. A disappearance case. This would most certainly keep him occupied.
Nate Willard ~ Streets of Snowflake City Then Palace Gates
"Heh, yeah most people aren't even allowed near the Palace, your lucky. You can follow me via the sound of my voice right so we don't have to hold hands all the way there?" Nate snickered to himself as he walked towards the Palace which stood above the walls of the city. He started to walk towards the tower while giving Dante a little tour showing him all the sights, err places in the kingdom, he really didn't care if Dante payed attention it was more for the fact that Dante could follow him by voice. Within minutes they arrived at the Palace Gates. He saw some blood, they tried to wash most of it away and they almost succeeded. Nate mumbled a few curse words under his breath as he signaled the guards to open the gate. The guards on the bottom signaled the guard in the watch tower who then began to open the gate with haste. "Hes with me, hes the Guardian of err...Sound, I think." Nate said referring to Dante. Nate walked into the gates as Dante followed. "Ron!" Nate called out to one of the guards. "Yes!" Ron quickly replied. "Show this man to where the rest of the Guardians are meeting, I have some questions to ask." Nate mumbled, it was still loud enough for people to hear though. "Oh and your going to actually have to direct him." Nate winked giving Ron the hint as he recalled the blood outside the gates, he couldn't go back outside them or the guards themselves would get suspicious, however he knew Hikari would know something.
((I sort of controlled Dante just for movement, nothing major.))
Fawn Wildrose ~ Castle Grounds
Fawn looked around her. It seemed Amora had landed on the grass beside the castle. She saw a cluster of people at the gates, looking somewhat destressed. Fawn let out a soft whistle, and Amora tucked her great white wings at her sides and trotted over to the people. Then she saw what they were looking at.
It seemed as though people where trying to wash blood off the stone. Her stomach twisted into a knot. She got there in time to hear one of the men there say they would need more compainions. Being the trusting girl she was, Fawn brushed her silvery blonde hair away from her sky blue eyes, and smiled at them. "Gaurdian of Plants, and my stubborn pegases at your service. Im Fawn Wildrose."
She introduced herself, her face gentle. "Dont worry, I can do more then grow really big vegetables." Fawn told them as Amora spread her powerful wings and held her head high, as though to show she was useful, too.
"So what exactly happened here?"
The setting changes from The Kingdom of Winterfall to Snowflake City
{}Dante Valamere ~ The Palace Gates{}
Dante followed the person, obviously he must be someone of importance. So it must have been Dante's lucky day to find such a capable guide. As he followed Nate never losing the sound of his voice they came up to what Nate explained as the palace gates. The city was huge and Dante could tell not just by Nate's descriptions but the sounds as well. There were numerous lives in the city, he could hear their footsteps, their voices. If he really wanted to he could hear their heartbeats but that would force him to concentrate on those subtle sounds and then he would unfortunately lose Nate in the crowds. When he arrived at the gates he came across a most ominous smell, blood. He could smelt it was fresh even though it wasn't as strong because of the clean up. Still blood at the palace gates is never good, unless these royal types like to great people with blood on their doorstep, then it would just be perfectly normal in a sense. Nate then called forth a guard to guide him towards the others as Nate spoke.
"Ron!" Nate called out to one of the guards. "Yes!" Ron quickly replied. "Show this man to where the rest of the Guardians are meeting, I have some questions to ask." Nate mumbled, it was still loud enough for people to hear though. "Oh and your going to actually have to direct him."
"Yes behold and recognize the Guardian of Sound, Dante Valamere!" Dante proudly spoke. "Now if you want to hear the rest of my introduction then your going to have to wait until I meet with the others." "Trust me it will be worth seeing." Dante said as he grinned.

Lithos turned to the sight of what seemed to be a flying horse. He swore he saw one before, while he was searching for honey in the woods, but that was not important right now. He looked closer to the creature's rider, a girl shorter and younger than he. "Great, I'm the eldest among my colleagues." Lithos thought.
"Guardian of Plants," he heard the stranger say, " and my stubborn pegases at your service. I'm Fawn Wildrose. Don't worry, I can do more then grow really big vegetables. So what exactly happened here?"
"Greetings, Guardian of Plants," he told her, nearly bowing as he spoke, "I am Lithos Terra, Guardian of Stone. A few moments ago, the castle's guards stationed at the gates were attacked, killed. One of our fellow guardians, Hikari, has gone off to investigate. We have come here in order to find her."
Lithos turned to the gates and saw that someone was coming. He was not sure who it, or they, was/were. Another guardian? The enemy? Hikari? A marching band? He readied a few nearby piles of stones (which are now levitating off the ground) and waited for whoever was behind the gate.
"Ron!" said a voice.
"Yes!" the person who was ,presumingly, Ron quickly replied. Lithos was surprised a guard actually survived the attack, or this one was a new one.
"Show this man to where the rest of the Guardians are meeting, I have some questions to ask." said the first voice, "Oh and your going to actually have to direct him."
"Yes behold and recognize the Guardian of Sound, Dante Valamere!" another voice spoke, "Now if you want to hear the rest of my introduction then your going to have to wait until I meet with the others. Trust me it will be worth seeing."
Hearing that, Lithos lowered the rocks and turned to the others, "I believe we have another ally. How...uncanny things happen. I was just thinking we need more companions."

Argene Cybele Wildrose ~ Snowflake City's Alleys
Despite going first, Argene spent more time up in the air observing the damage caused by the way. She watched as Amora flew off with Fawn straight for the castle. Soaring around at a gentle pace,she continued to look around,but making sure to run her eye through the forests. Many of her friends were there. As of now, there didn't seem to be any harm done, Fawn would be delighted to know that. She also felt the presence of Garoo,her pet mongoose roaming the streets. That was when she realized she had completely forgotten about the poor thing, especially since she was in a hurry.
She gave Zahavah instructions to dive down. During the descent, she noticed two figures down an alley. A young woman and a...some kind of...child of abomination. Argene could already smell the pungent odor of blood reeking from the child, as it has it's tail blade close to the woman's throat. She was too far to reach in time, especially if the child decided to slash the woman's throat at the moment, so she relied on Garoo instead, telepathy transmitting her calls. In one quick instant, Garoo dashed over and jumped in between both of them and sank his fangs into the tail. A futile attempt, and through the bonding of their minds, Argene could feel Garoo's teeth jarring and the rusty taste of blood that seemed to be reeking from the child herself, instead of from a wound. The mongoose clutched onto the woman's clothing and stared right at the child, hissing out dangerously.
Argene and Zahavah took the chance and dived in between the two people, hoping to scare the child away, or at least place distance between them. Instead, the child leaped away along with the woman and Garoo. Zahavah cautiously tapped her hooves on the cobblestone ground and brayed softly. Garoo scurried away, barely evading the tail blade and ran towards Argene's outstretched hand, crawling up hastily leaving a few scratches on Argene's arm, before settling on her shoulder. He gave out another threatening hiss.
"I don't know what you are...but I don't want to fight.Let go of the lady and leave." she said firmly,with a small hint of pleading underneath her facade.
Through their telepathic link, Argene could feel Garoo's canines aching and Garoo's dissatisfaction. She sent an apology to him, which the mongoose grudgingly accepted. After that, she cut off their bond, not wanting Garoo's toothache to affect her concentration. She had to be alert if she didn't want to end up dead.

Hikari Neshomaru
Hikari's vision was turned into a blur as Akronea scooped her up into her arms, and it was no comfortable embrace. Relief washed over her as she felt her feet touch the ground once more, but the pungent odor of blood clogged her nostrils, making her equally horrified. Lost in rumination, Hikari had forgotten the events that were unfolding before her eyes. That was until a pegasus landed in front of them, bearing a small girl on her back.
At that moment, Hikari had a revelation. There was yet a way that she could escape the child's malicious intentions. However, it was very risky. Hikari began to squirm in an attempt to break free of the contact between herself and Akronea.

Akronea – Snowflake City
When a rat suddenly lost any sense it could have ever had and attempted to sink its teeth into the jagged tail still aimed at the woman's throat, Akronea found herself rather annoyed at the sight before her. Not only had the worthless creature interfered with something that was beyond anything it could ever imagine, it was also noticeably lacking in any sort of intelligence, even for a beast. Before she could put an end to the seemingly moronic rodent, it quickly leapt away from her as she found herself having to leap away from something herself as another beast fell from the sky intent on trampling both her and her captive.
With the animal and the girl riding it grounded the one capable of speech became the second of the day to think they could give Akronea a command, regardless of the tone being used. Since she was not willing to accept such a thing from a girl and her pests anymore than from the girl in white, she quickly wrapped an arm around the midsection of her captive and held the squirming girl tightly against her, though one of her arms had escaped the embrace. The hand that still remained free encased itself in a stony skin from the tips of her fingers to her elbow, forming a menacing claw where a human hand once was. "You will leave me to my prize or I will slaughter you along with your beasts."

Lithos Terra ~ Castle Grounds
It took Lithos some time before he got an idea. It was simple, yes, but he had a feeling it would work. It would involve his companions' elemental powers and which ones he should use together.
"I have an idea," he told the others, hopefully catching their attention, "but it will involve our elemental powers and our groupings..."
Those were all he could say before nearly collapsing again. This time, he hit the ground hard. "Guess we should...get going now..." he said.
Fawn Wildrose ~ Castle Gates
Fawn smiled gentley as Lithos introduced himself. "Pleasure to meet you, Lithos." she spoke softly, glancing up at the sky worriedly. "I came with my sister- She should have been here by now." she glanced at the others, biting her lip. When Lithos spoke again, she looked over at him. He needed them to use their elemental powers for something, but he didn't explain. She nodded.
Suddenly, he collapsed and fell hard against the earth. She quickly hopped off of Amora and helped him off. "We are going to need you, and it won't be much help if you are seeming like you might collapse." she told him, helping him onto Amora without asking him if he wanted to go on the pegases with her. "Amora, it would be best if you didn't kill any of the guardians, so no nosedives or taking off without my command." Fawn told her, and the horse's wings drooped a little, as though she was disappointed. Fawn climbed onto the horse, sitting in front Lithos.
She then whistled softly and touched her heels on Amora's side, aiming her towards the gate. She trotted towards the newcomer who had a blindfold over his eyes. "You are the guardian of sound, right?" she asked before going on. "I am Fawn Wildrose, guardian of plants."

{}Dante Valamere ~ Castle Gates{}
"You are the guardian of sound, right?" she asked before going on. "I am Fawn Wildrose, guardian of plants."
The voice called out behind him as Dante turned around. Sure it really wouldn't matter if he turned or not but it was common courtesy even if you are blind. "So you have already hea4rd of me?" Dante said, "I guess choosing this guardian job is already making me famous!" Dante said as he gave a triumphant laugh. "That's right you can call me Dante Valamere and don't you forget it." Dante spoke, "Of course that will soon become difficult at this rate." Dante said as he smirked. "So plants eh?" Dante said as he pondered, "Let me guess you grow plants?" Dante spoke in a snickering manner. Dante could hear other people in the background, whether they are other guardians or not is still to be discovered. He could tell sound travels fast around here, mainly because of the many people that live here. That fact is rather amazing considering the numerous wars this country finds itself embroiled in. Still people need to make a living and what better place than the big city or at least that is what Dante believes. One sound interested him and that was coming from Fawn. Obviously those really can't be her footsteps could they? If they where she must be wearing tap shoes or really heavy. Judging by the sound vibrations off of the clomping it really sounds like hooves. She could be on a horse. "Your on a horse right?" Dante asked wryly.

Lithos Terra ~ Castle grounds
At this point, Lithos dwells in a spiritual presence. He felt more than a man, than a mage, somewhat, calmer. He knew right away that he has somewhat tapped into his inner power. He began seeing events of his past. His childhood, his first project, his family, the war...
That's when his eyes shot open...and when his body fell off the horse with a loud thud. "Ow..." he said, he did fall head first into the solid ground. "If only I could make the ground much...softer. Oh well, I guess now is the time to-"
He stared at the tall being he assumed was Dante. Aside from the fact that he's blind and a tad younger, he seems to be a proud man who is skilled in...something. "So..." Lithos said, "...I assume you are this...Dante. 'Dante Valamere', eh? Hmm, nice name. I am Lithos Terra, Guardian of Earth and a humble potter."

Argene Cybele Wildrose ~ Snowflake City
"You will leave me to my prize or I will slaughter you along with your beasts."
As soon as the child-abomination said the word 'beasts', all traces of meekness and hesitation vanished from Argene, only to be replaced by some kind of primal fury. Argene clenched her fists angrily and bared her teeth, revealing sharp canines underneath. As if in response to her anger, Garoo started growling and Zahavah spread her wings far apart and flapped them, stirring up a small whirlwind. Not only that, but even the other animals started gathering around, cats, dogs, rats. Birds appeared and soared above them in flocks, causing shadows to flicker around the ground. Argene released a small threatening growl deep in her throat.
"They're not beasts. You will take that back!" she yelled at the creature furiously. She was bare-handed, she had not taken her weapons along with her. But in her anger, she did not care about those details, merely having her mind fully focused upon saving the woman and making the creature that stood before her take back the words it had said.

{}Dante Valamere ~ Castle Gates{}
"So..." Lithos said, "...I assume you are this...Dante. 'Dante Valamere', eh? Hmm, nice name. I am Lithos Terra, Guardian of Earth and a humble potter."
"Well for being a humble potter you sure make an entrance." Dante spoke, "Of course falling off, what I assume to be a horse, wouldn't be my first choice." Dante jocularly spoke. "Well of course it is a 'nice' name, my parents certainly knew what they where doing when they named me." Dante smirked. "After all if it's name that can be remembered then the person who possess it shall be as well." Dante spoke pridefully. "So the guardian of Earth?" The Dante pondered for a moment. "So you basically move rocks around right?" Dante commented in a frank but wryly manner. Dante then heard a lot of birds flapping across the sky all moving towards some place. Hm that's weird I didn't know winter came already. Dante joked as he heard more birds flock towards a site. Although he was distracted he still kept his body in the general direction of the two guardians. He then started to hear some dogs and cats? Odd is the traveling circus in town or what? Dante pondered as to why a lot of animals are suddenly active, Did the meat market suddenly explode and it's raining bits and pieces or what? Still Dante kept his thoughts to himself as he was really unaware of what was happening.
Lithos Terra ~ Castle Grounds
"Yes, that's pretty much most of what I do..." Lithos said, he was cut short by the sight of hordes of animals passing by. Cats, dogs, birds, cattle, horses, and even rats swarmed the streets. Suddenly, he felt disturbances in the earth. It felt like a stampede of land-based creatures are heading for a certain spot. If this was some sort-of mystical gathering of the animals or the result of a spell is unclear to him, but he had a guess.It seemed to make sense, two guardians lost, animals gathering, seemed like someone was calling for help. The more Lithos thought of it, the more intense he became. He owed Hikari for helping him get in, he had to return that debt.
"Fawn," he asked, "you said your sister is supposed to be here right now, right? Do you know what her power is? Because I think your sister's and Hikari's disappearances are somehow connected."
