My First Day from here

That was not the answer he was expecting, not at all. What kind of fool would barge into a guild and expect to win a fight against the guild master, yet alone while surrounded by the guilds criminal members. Sovereign was about to respond, but he quickly stopped himself and closed his mouth. Once again, he was shocked for words. He just smiled down at her, disgusted by this girls confidence and insulted by her disrespect. Beneath the smile, Sovereign was both enraged and humoured. 

"I see." He replied calmly, yet his heart was fluttering with adrenaline. 

She was either insanely strong that she was confident enough in her abilities to win, or just a fool who had her head in the clouds. Just to think, if she had come here when William was still alive, he would have executed her on the spot, insulted by her very presence. Maybe she was lucky that it was Sovereign who greeted her, for he would surely offer a more kinder hand. 

"Follow me." 

Walking out the bell tower, he'd once again lead her to the indoor balcony and then walk down the stairs. The guild members would get a better look at her, all staring at her with disgust in their eyes. Sovereign ignored it all, and headed to the main entrance where two large doors were already open that lead out onto the street. 

"Please wait outside, I'd prefer not to fight inside the guild. It's broken enough as it is." He laughed, referencing the slightly open roof near the back where the altar was.

"We might just have to do that." The three snickered to themselves, though they doubted this masked swordswoman would need assistance in combat. She seemed perfectly capable at handling large mobs by herself, and he seemed to have witnessed her fight without the use of any magic. Then again, he wasn't paying full attention to her during the fight, so it may have been something that Sovereign had missed.

"I suppose it does appear that the threat has passed, for now. But I have a few things I'd like to do before I leave." He would look over at the village, seeing how poor its defenses were. "Might stay a while longer just in case anything does pop up, but eventually we will have to head back to our own guild."

Walking away, the three would raise a hand to say goodbye, "Anyhow, catch y' later!"

Growing tired of pointless chatter with the man, Sovereign needn't wait around or reply to him further and the three would walk forwards. They care not if they had to push him out the way, but thankfully the glorified ecowarrior would step aside and nervously look around for help. Luckily, there were so many people here all too busy with their own business to notice the three men barge through.

Waltzing across the beach like they owned the place, Sovereign would enter the thick boundary of the jungle, practically having to put all his weight into the foliage to get through the first hurdle of dense greenery. Leaves the size of cows would push against him, and ivy would reach down and tug at his arms, the jungle practically fighting against his entry.

It took a lot of forceful work for the first few minutes, but he eventually battled his way through, the grip of nature loosening its clutch as the pup of Quatro Cerberus found less resistance against his form. "Finally, I think we are welcome now."

There wasn't much of a clearing anywhere, more so small patches of emptiness that he would use as a footpath, stepping over roots as high as his shins and ducking under spiky branches. It would be impossible to locate the creature at this pace, so the guild master clasped his hands together as if he were to pray, and more and more clones would begin to emerge from wherever they could. All would be given the same command, but for different places.

"Search for the creature." All would say, fifty voices booming within the jungle as they then darted off in different directions.

Sovereign had visited Adakite Island once with an old friend, someone who he hasn't seen in many years now. He remembered it being hot and humid, with nothing but overgrown flora swamping his vision and tangling around his body. he tried to recall how long ago the trip was, but his memory always seemed to be a blur during the time he lived with all his family. Perhaps it was so traumatic to think back to then that his mind had blocked it all out, 'That would be nice.' he thought, smiling to himself.

After arriving by boat, Sovereign instantly saw the huge groups of people lining the shore. Various guilds, various bands of wannabe scientists and people who thought they were bettering the world. And with what? A fish that could talk to ghosts? He scoffed at them, walking softly across the sand accompanied by two of his duplicates. These people merely ignored the true peril of Earthlands ruined society, turning a blind eye to people starving on the streets and needing shelter. They poured resources into useless discoveries such as this, could they not first help the people that made this world before interfering with the flow of nature? After all, the calamity seems to have given Mother Nature the boost it needed. Allowing it to flourish and overgrow ancient human settlements and its population.

Ah, slaves, something that had grown more abundant over the years since the calamity. For almost a hundred years the business of slavery had been something that had almost boomed, since there were no real laws or regulations anymore to combat this. Of course, guilds sometimes got some requests to solve this, but tackling one portion of this huge industry would never solve it. Slavery was something that has always existed, and probably will continue to do so for many years to come. 

"How sad." Sovereign said drily, though it was unclear whether he was being genuine or not. 

In a way, he knew it was terrible, but most people under his protection were also terrible people. He had worked for the business himself almost a year ago, solely for money and his own gain. And now, here he was fighting against it. There really was no commitment with Master Pale, no sense of trust between him and his clients.

So why the sudden change of heart? There were rumours that a certain 'shipment' contained some special goods. A special egg in the basket of rotten ones. His goal was to seek out this certain someone with a certain magical talent, assess the threat of it and deal with it accordingly. But he knew he wouldn't be able to bust this operation alone, so he needed to team up with someone, and pretend that of course, he was doing this for the good of the people... And not to potentially murder a slave after instantly freeing them.

It was cold. His bones ached from the deep chill. It was also wet. His clothes clung to him as the rain pelted down. And it was windy, lashing at the exposed parts of his face, making his lips cracked and dry. A storm was brewing, and sooner than later the black clouds above would begin to spark and send down strikes of lightning. It wasn't the most pleasant of weather conditions, but it would make for excellent cover if they chose to be more discreet about this mission. 

Looking down at the port from a cliff he was perched on, he'd see the faint lights of lanterns and lacrimas drift about, likely held by guards on patrol. This small docking area was separate to the main docks, making it the perfect place to ship in slaves from islands and other parts of Earthland.
