I'm not gonna throw away my live because I was summoned here, it should have been the other way around. It would like to have the chance to decline the offer before getting warped out of bed.' Sergey replied feeling himself getting angry.

'That's different, King Desmond allied himself with bandits which I have been protecting villages from my whole life. What is a guy suppose to do? Now Ostia, they have given us free lodging, the Lord isn't corrupt, we are treated fairly there and Kenshin owes Sain from what I understand.' Alan concluded a bit uncertain, he wasn't completely clear about the beginning of the group..

(OOC: Well, seeing how I left before any of the 'heroes' showed up, and I entered Athos' Tower after the initial quest was stated, I'm pretty sure I'm playing my character right in not knowing what this threat really is. I've even double checked to be sure, though I mostly read the posts of Athos, which were either before my first post, or from the time I had arrived. On a side note, Kenshin, I though you left Athos' tower, or was that directed at Lumino? If that's the case, just delete this post as I'm still with Athos in his tower. In fact, the only ones I know to be here are me, Alexia, Sergy, Dirk, Lyndsey, and perhaps Ziess as well. *shrugs* Perhaps next time people leave a thread for a specific location like this, a new thread should be made. Oh, and was that age thing directed at me, or Lumino? If it was me, then I've invisioned my character to be around 25 to 30 years old, if not a little older. You might attribute a higher age if the dragon blood in him would allow him to live longer. Otherwise, the above age range seems about right.) "The legendary heroes!?" Dray'Gon was suprised, and a little worried. If the legendary heroes had their weapons, how would he, or even the whole group, be able to stand up to them? Regaining his composure, he began to think. "It would certainly be wise that we do not rush into this. If they are the same heroes I'm thinking of, then it'll be suicidal to try to take them on without gaining some sort of edge, either by determining a weakness, or by finding a way to take each one alone. Perhaps even a combination of the two." Dray'Gon turned to Athos, and added, "Do you think we have time to wait till we can gain a significant upper hand before we face these heroes? Depending on how much time we have may limit what approach we'll have to take."

Matthias nodded. "Sain helped Kenshin and Matis back when they first left Sacae, I think. I stumbled on 'em back in the woods. Damn, that was a long time ago though..." "anyway, I'm gonna ta find someplace ta stay for the night," he waved at Alan, and headed towards what looked like an inn.

OoC: I agree, I'm going to have Alan and Matthias move on, to make things easier... Alan, either make a new post or pick one of the other topics. It's getting cluttered in here, and you and Matthias are both not really here.... an
"I do agree with Dray'Gon. We can't simply rush in, or we're be slaughtered," she nodded. She looked over at Sergey. "Fighter, the choice is yours. I just hope you choose the right path."

Lyndsey chuckled. the overt displays of heroics were quite amusing. Not to mention Sergey's rising temper. She knew firsthand that they pulled together when they fought someone, but that didn't make this any less ridiculous. Athos must've made a mistake yanking these people, there had to be better heroes out there. She would've left by now, but it was just so amusing.

OoC: Time for me to come back into action!
BiC: Matis had remained in the shadows ever since the idea of sneaking into Bern had come into mind. He had fought alongside Ostia's sword users, and had managed to stop a good part of the enemy's troops. However, as time passed during the battle, the swordmen around him started to fall to the bandits and soldiers, one by one.
He had been left alone, and was surrouned. The Mani Katti would once again prove to be his lucky coin. Ten spearmen had jumped at him, waving their lances. Matis then spun the blade around, and dissapeared in a white flash, taking out every single one of them. A smile had appeared on his face, soon to be overshadowed by the steel of a pike cutting through his orihalcon shirt, leaving a deep wound on his side. He blacked out after that, only to wake up on an old tower, in the center of a city in the middle of the desert.
Although semi-unconcious, he had managed to listen to the coversation from a corner of the tower. It seemed that no one had noticed him, even though his side was still bleeding, and the pool of blood beneath him was already making it's way to the center of the room. Matis couldn't even open his eyes "Is this my end? Knowing that the legendary heroes are back, and our group is falling apart? Knowing that there are little to no chances of the world to be saved?"
But something warm overcomed him. He then opened his eyes and touched his side. The wound was not there anymore! But how? He looked to the side, seeing Athos(whom he had heard from the conversation) wielding a staff high in the air.
"Th-thank you." he could manage to say, but passed out again.

Kenshin walked in as Athos had his staff high in the air and look in the direction it was pointed in. He seen Matis. "Matis? When did you get here." He got closer to see that Matis had passed out.
"No matter." Kenshin looked towards Athos. "When I seen that guy in Bern, he said something about me being related to Hanon, do you know where that came from?"

"I still am not able to see what Hargus plans to do with them. But he has raised them back in their orginal countrys where they lived after defeating the dragons. I'm thinking he's going to use them to rule that country."
Athos listens to Kenshin's question and looks at the crest that Matis has. "You and the one I just healed are related to the person he got that from right? That once belonged to Hanon and was passed down from generation to generation."

"If there is only one in each country could we all fight them one at a time, like a whole group vs just one of them. Use parts of the Ostia army to wear them out before we make our attack? Would that help any?"
Kenshin didn't like the idea useing Ostia's small army as a sacerfice to defeat any of the legendry heros.

'I don't think Matthias would like that, he doesn't seem very keen on the plan before he left.' Sergey added distantly, he eyed Lyndsey whom he noticed for the first time. Sergey had believed she had fallen in the battle and he was now all alone in this world but he was wrong.

Alan flew back in. Not heeding the return of Matis he dismunted and walked straight up to Archsage. 'I wish to be teleported back to Ostia Castle... Sir.'

"So what are we doing?" Sokka asked. "If you guys dont mind, I think we should go and take on these bandits. I was kind of zoning out though, thinking about drinking cactus juice a bit... What are they doing with the Souring Heros?" Sokka said.
OoC: cactus juice... Sokka is so funny...

Things had grown quite confusing over the past few moments. Like Sokka, Alexia was reeling a bit. Unlike Sokka, she had no desire to start drinking cactus juice. "It looks like Matis has appeared again. Kenshin is discussing how best to handle the new threat... honestly, I'm a bit confused at this point myself," she admitted the last rather reluctantly. "All I know for certain is that the leader of the bandits has revived the ancient heroes, and is using them for his own means. It also seems that there's some noble blood in the room." She looked over at Matis and Kenshin as she said the last bit. Something about the two had struck her since their first meaning. It appeared as though her suspicions had been correct.
OoC: My stat sheet's not totally accurate... DANG! I want Matis's stats...

(OoC: Holy Crap!! What exactly are Matis' growths? all well above 80?)
'But how is this possible, the ancient hero's revived? I don't understand. It seems unlikely that mere bandits would know such Dark Magic.' Zeiss looked at Athos hoping for an answer.
