From the Ashes... A new king's day?

[Dracos]

Yomi laughed. "You mean you people don't always do that?"  He said almost observationally.  "I thought that went along with the type that would ever open the box.  Anyhow, going in..."

The world swirled around them as the two found themselves in Yomi's miniture study.

"...waffu....refu....waffu...

A slightly strange sound was audible from behind one of the bookshelves.  The three doors to Yomi's various storage rooms avaliable.

Leets wandered on through the streets, aimlessly and slowly as he had to focus hard to even walk, man that had been a lot to take in.  He headed, in his dazed state, towards the magic shop that Felix had been patronizing.

"I should've kept the box closed." Jan began...only to come to a stop at the sound. Confirming that he was indeed still hearing properly, he held a finger up to Yomi.

Reaching into his vest, he drew out one of his collected firearms to bear as he snuck up to where the sound was coming from.

[Shukuen]

Images... memories began to slip stealthily though his mind. Snippets of conversation building a picture for him to follow.

"Magicians in the magic shop," he singsonged lightly, the memory of a store near where the group parted rising forefront to his thoughts. He grasped onto it like a drowning man, and his movements became slightly more purposeful (though still uncoordinated) as he headed towards his new goal.

[Dracos]

Sneaking around the study, he moved next to the bookshelf which the sound was coming from, armed and ready to deal with the threat that had somehow invaded his private intradimensional box.  Glancing cautiously at the other side of the bookcase he saw... an odd sight.

A young woman, maybe five two or so, with long black hair was standing against the back of the bookshelf.  She was dressed in a white dress with some odd symbols along it, and a blue stripe down the chest, craddling some metal staff to her as she...slept?  Her eyes were closed and despite standing up perfectly she seemed clearly asleep.

[Olvelsper]

"...this box just keeps getting stranger and stranger." Jan lowered his arm, prodding the woman with his free hand.

[Dracos]

Yomi had a shocked look, "What... how'd that get in here/"

The woman looked confused as she woke up.  "Time for the party?"  She said with a bright and cheery smile as she came to.

[Olvelsper]

"Is that an invitation?" Jan quipped. "Otherwise, I just don't know why you're inside Pandora's Box right now."

[Dracos]

"Oh no... Fuu, I did it again," She stomped.  Kind of an energetic if a bit vapid girl.  "I was looking forward to that huge slab of roast beef too."

Dracos

[Olvelsper]

"...right." Jan turned to look at Yomi. "Is this common?"

[Dracos]

"Actually... no.  It's never happened before and I don't know how she got in here.  Who are you lady?"

Dracos

[Dracos]

The woman blinked.  "I'm Viki.  Pandora's box?  I've never heard of that city," She remarked.  It came to Jan's observation that the way she moved seemed familiar, reminiscient of some of the mages he'd seen in Silmaria or in Baron.

Dracos

[Olvelsper]

"Well, you're actually in Baron. Pandora's Box can be considered a...house in Baron." Jan somehow got the feeling she'd appreciate it that he played it down.

"I'm Jan. The puffball is Yomi." He nodded at her.

[Dracos]

She smiled, "Nice to meet  you.  Felt more like a pocket than a house.  Mmm, where is Baron?  Near the Dunan empire?" She seemed disoriented, but almost eminated cheerfulness.

[Olvelsper]

"I wouldn't know. The world's a giant mess these days." Jan decided to trust his gut, putting away his sidearm for now. "Anyway, just go see the King. His castle is at the end of the road you'll show up on when you leave here. He should be able to tell you what's going on better than I could."
