Later going around into the palace of Alvera, Ralian puts Gale into her room as she heads out of her room getting them some bandages as she sees Ezrael interrogating people who were influenced by Hazard as he found who they worked for. "Ezrael? Who are they" Ezrael looked at Ralian noticing her watching his methods, "meat shield of the enchantress, they seem to be persistent with what I try to find from them" "do you need help?" "Unfortunately you're not needed, but I see you're looking for some medical care for Azulen" "you knew too" Ralian shocked a bit, but knows he was wise enough to know.
Ezrael nodded "indeed Azulen didn't want to trouble you, considering you know their true identity. And I know you want to be better friends once again"
"I'll give you time alone with the prisoners". Ralian leaves, letting Ezrael to interrogate as he begins to flick his tongue as sparks begin to spark frightening them for intimidation.
Ralian walking further into the hallway trying to make her way towards the medical room as she began to hear screaming towards her left quickly she sprinted to hear who's screaming in pain, as she began to hear the screams getting louder and louder coming through a nearby the opens the door to only hear Moria screaming, quickly she uses some moss to create ear plugs. As long as she can't hear her screams Ralain looks confused to see Venny trying to command her to speak, but all she sees is Moria trying to resist control as she feels pain in her body. As her body had black reddish sparks surges around his body, Venny started to speak but from Ralian wearing the ear plugs most of his words were muffled. Then Ralian was quickly pulled out of the room by Dani as she quickly closes the door and the screams muffled further allowing Ralian to take off her ear plugs.
"Ralian what are you doing" Dani questioning her actions.
"Sorry Dani I was just wondering what was those screams until it was just that Siren screaming in pain from Venny" "Venny is just using another type of blood alteration technique known as ventriloquist" "ventriloquist!? He can do that"
"indeed years ago, it was very helpful for us to extract information from people who were acquaintance with others, and using them to forcefully fight along side us"
"Then if Venny can control other with his blood, why Venny couldn't use his magic on those two prisoners Ezrael is interrogating"
"That's because those were just minions, Moria was an elite for the Enchantress, it we can find that information we can finally put an end to her reign. Also Moria is much stronger than those goons, takes a lot of energy to use his abilities on someone stronger than him. If he had been training lately then he would control ten people weaker than him or more"
"Alright that's good to know, I'll keep that in mind"
"Also where are you heading, doesn't seem your heading to the library for more books?"
"I just needed to find some medicine for Gale"
"Gale? What happened did they were injured or something?" Asked Dani surprised
Ralian nodded "Yes they were hit with some mixture of dark flames, and a light base attack, I can't heal them from the dark flame being a countering my own"
"Okay well I need to pass the time, so I'll go with you"
"Thank you, it will be easier tending to Gale's wounds with someone Gale looks up too"
"Please Ralian I still remember when we first met, Gale wouldn't stop being so formal with 'yes Captain' and 'thank you Captain' though it is cute still knowing who Gale really is"
"Indeed, but question do you have knowledge about the original Gale?"
"I did actually, though there wasn't much detail all is known that the original Gale was a rememberable paladin, and that's all"
"Really he didn't come to Alvera"
Dani shook her head "this was during when the king was a prince and his father King Zenith ruled over Alvera"
"I see, but never the less the Gale we knew right now respects the old Gale."
The two continue to talk as they walk through the hallway heading towards the medical room chatting about the good times. But during their talk Ralian can still sense the pain in Dani's heart as she continue to talk as if she needed to cope away the loss they all witnessed. "So how's Jin's sister" Ralian trying to have a talk with her to distract her aching heart trying to speak of sad moments to create more comfortable talks towards each other. "Siph does have the right to return back to Europe, but she doesn't want to right now. She's going to be watched over by me and Venny from now on, as she has a room of her own here in Alvera. Cost from me only" Ralian suddenly noticed a jeweled bracelet being held onto Dani's hand "hey Dani is that a gift for Siph" Ralian pointed at Dani's hand.
"This bracelet was made by Jin himself, it was supposed to be an heirloom to his family, he gave it to me before the incident with the team I held onto this bracelet till he came back and Jin's bounty was gone... But when Venny and I tried to give it to her saying to keep it in Jin's memories, but she rejected our offer saying that Jin is finally at rest and she doesn't wanted to keep staring at it as it keep reminding her of Jin" Dani said with sorrow in her voice as a tear falls out.
"I see, it's hard to keep it together after all. do you two intend to keep the bracelet?" Dani nodded her head " I understand, but speaking of Siph, how is she feeling?"
"She's doing alright, but I don't think she can move on for the time being seeing her own brother sacrificing himself to save everyone, their family has seen some tragedy over the years. And now soon we might go to war looking for that bastard who started it all."
Ralian stopped as Dani does the same but with confusion "Dani look at me straight. Are you feeling alright" she asked worriedly.
"Of... of course I am, it's just it like the incident back at the theatre, I still remember every detail of how it happened."
"Yes Jin told me and Gale all about that incident as for your concern and worries I will not talk about the fight" "of course he did, Jin is very sharing when it comes with close friends" Ralian smirks "indeed he is" remembering the few advnetures and stories he told her when they were still a small group of three.
Then they continue to walk making their way towards the medical room as they grab the bandages and head back to Ralian's room as Gale is waiting as they took off their upper armour leaving their legging in, but revealing half of his body a body of a changeling, feeling awkward Ralian sighs ignoring Gale's changeling body and proceeds to splash cold water onto their wound though Gale felt a slight stun from their wound before bandaging Gale's wound "how does it feel Gale" "it feels alright for now, that burn still hurts" "okay hope this wound would suffice for now". Then they suddenly heard a knock on Ralian's door. It was Venny "Venny? What happened this time" Dani asking her friend "it's the king, Captain. He's called for all of us to a meeting, so don't be late for this one" before Venny leaves them and makes his way towards the main hall awaiting for the others to make their move.
