Bread Crumbs [mission / closed]

"Now there's two of them?!" He cursed, almost annoyed at the fact he wasn't the only thing in the world who could multiply. He bent his knees as he saw the wisps split forces, though both manifesting into similar shapes as they condensed themselves into harpoons. Both shot out towards their targets, Anniken being the first to dispose of it as her sword tore through the light, making the wisps disappear into a formless ethernano.

Sovereign was prepared this time, seeing the light zip through the air he would jump out the way. The harpoon embedded itself into a brick wall, slowly beginning to return to its more larger mass. But Sovereign was quick to counter, a shadow duplicate of himself forming by his side before it also shot forwards in the form of a black harpoon. It hit with precise accuracy, and eventually all wisps had fallen.

Panting slightly, he'd make his way over to Anniken, seeing the slight specs of blood around her lips. How odd, he was sure she hadn't been hit. "Everything okay?" He'd ask, showing concern to the stranger.

But what he'd rather ask if more information on what the hell these things were, but he figured he'd try and be polite.

Sovereign tilted his head as Anniken spoke, assuring him she was okay and that he needn't worry. Which was totally fine by him, as he wasn't one to show much concern or sympathy for total strangers. Despite her saying this, she still seemed a little dazed by whatever injury she was suffering from.

Though thankfully, she was still strong enough to inform him of what she knows so far. But what confused him most was the mentioning of 'my guild'. Sovereign made a little squeak, confused and curious. He wanted to ask further, and so he did. 

"Your guild?" He would question, not away from it at all. "Which guild is that, how long had these sisters been a part of it?"

He wanted to be able to have more information himself, but honestly, he still felt like he was lost in the dark. "I'm sorry, but all I know is that one of these people attacked Samuelsonite Town and stole a damaged effigy. I don't remember hearing about two people though, only one. Are you sure you detect the magic from both of them?"

When he thought about it, there was something familiar yet different about the wisps. They were composed of the same element as before, but they seemed more aggressive and sick, like a light that had lost its sparkle. The ones before were smaller and seemed to just be the residue of previous attacks, which the wisps did not leave a trace of. 

"I was told the woman possessed an item that could harness the power of light. It seemed powerful for almost half of a building had been obliterated and it left such a strong amount of ethernano in the area even after it had been used." He'd look towards where the wisps once were, "It's similar to what we fought just now but... Not. These sisters, did they share a similar affinity to light?"

Impressed by how well Anniken could pick up so acutely on someone elses ethernano was impressive, something that Sovereign envied somewhat. He wasn't sure if it was just lots of practice with attuning her magical abilities or if it had something to do with the whole animal thing going on. Either way, it was useful. 

Now, Sovereign had a name and some background to work from. Dahlia and Zinnia, two sisters who weren't too keen on the line of work they had got themselves into, or so it seemed. Obviously Anniken knew them far better than he did, so hopefully they'd have something to follow now.

"So now we just need to figure out which sister attacked the town..." Sovereign paused, piecing together the facts about Samuelsonite. "I thought those were just rumours, but I suppose I did see a few first hand." 

When he tried to think back to the strange effigies and totems he saw scattered around the town, he couldn't remember seeing anything that looked overly human. Most of it was animal bones and pelts, could it really be that humans were used too? And if that was the case... Did it mean that one of the sisters had-

"Right." He stopped himself from thinking, "I'd rather not jump to conclusions, but I'm also itching to figure out the rest. Do you think you could uh... Follow the scent or something?"  

He didn't mean for it to sound offensive, but Anniken was literally half dog and had shown great skill in sniffing things out so far. He'd wait for a response, and arrange to meet up at the next location to track down the two sisters.
