Madara scoffed. A transient, Madara thought. He managed to come across a bum. He paused in thought. He had no way of knowing what the item looked like but he knew it was here, he could feel it's presence near them. Maybe the staff was mistaken.

"Seems we made a pointless trip, Susabi. We could have continued on to the God Child..."

Turning back to the man, Madara spoke to him again.

"No, it has no financial worth. It's just a relic that I require for something. An associate of mine managed to lose it and I have reason to believe it is nearby," Madara said, holding the staff towards the man as he spoke. He hoped it's own powers would cause it to manifest but it seemed there was little hope of that. He would usually just resort to violence to gain what he wanted but with Susabi and Harley with him, he decided to rely on diplomacy. Being the Kage and always acting in haste would only bring ill fortunes.

"To you it may seem as worthless as a scroll, but it's imperative I receive it."



As the man spoke to the other two, he addressed one as the King of Mages and called the other a sibling. Given their appearance, perhaps the draconic winged one was a King of sorts while the other fairer skinned one was his brother. However, it wasn't the words he spoke that drew his attention, it was the Sharingan he possessed. Madara could sense chakra stronger than the other two within him - chakra as sinister as his own.

"The Sharingan...You, who are you and how did you gain that?" It was a rather direct statement, Madara knew it but one that he needed answered. He had yet to meet a Uchiha as powerful as himself so to come across one at random near one of the cores was rather interesting.
Susabi agreed with the statement. The journey here was fruitless and a waste of time. Madara addressed someone with eyes of similar to the Uchiha. Seeing his pale skin and crimson eyes, Susabi was intrigued as well. It wasn't typical of Uchiha to have such features, perhaps he was from another line elsewhere. The Hyuga had different bloodlines so he wouldn't be surprised if the Uchiha possessed the same. Susabi spoke Madara facing, the pale skinned man as he stood side by side with the Uchiha.

It would seem you aren't the only one with those eyes, Uchiha. But what does it matter? I don't know what beckoned you here, but we should have made our way to the God child by now. There isn't time to waste.
More delays. I shouldn't have given into my more basic instinct to see Solomon. Oh well, what's done is done. Demetrias paused in his stride from the group, conflicted in how he considered responding. It was imperative he not reveal Madara's mission to the world at large; capturing the Bijuu was integral to Imeroth's grand design, and without them their great undertaking would be meaningless. And it was only Madara's body that could house such power and become the Ten-Tailed Jinchuuriki. It was the missing key when they had taken Takauji Ashikaga over a year ago. "Like you, our ancient inheritance flows through my blood." He responded to Madara without turning back toward him, though a small portion of him felt sympathy for his descendant. He bore a difficult burden. Demetrias continued walking away, preparing to leave Theodoro.

Solomon's demeanor changed suddenly compared to how he had been with Demetrias and Lucifer moments before. His serious tone dissipated as the Voidlord departed, bringing a slight sigh of relief to the Mage King's lips. "Well Lucifer..." He awkwardly ran his hand through his hair, suddenly appearing more as a nervous introvert than the stoic King of Israel. "I should take my leave, and it seems you have business with them anyway." He smiled, motioning toward Madara and Susabi. Solomon turned away, and walked back toward the shore.

As the man walked away, he lingered in his step, a movement most might not have picked up on but Madara and his Sharingan noticed the momentary lapse in step. He spoke and kept going though the words he spoke were curious, to say the least.

"Like you, our ancient inheritance flows through my blood."

Before he could question it, the man had already left. Susabi bought Madara back to attention, pointing out how trivial it was to waste more time here.

"Yes...yes, you're right."

Lucifer listened to both men speak, the first who had spoke seemed to be asking about some kind of relic, he claimed that an associate of his had dropped or lost it, though this didn't sound like anything Lucifer had encountered, he did however carry a relic from which a voice had spoken to him prior, but it was certainly not the voice of the man who spoke now. Perhaps however there was some connection, Lucifer would inquire in hopes of discerning this.

"This, relic you speak of, where was it lost? I have travelled far across this world recently but I haven't stopped in many places. Though your companion mentioned the god child correct, I have seen him curing those who suffered the fever, last I saw him he was across the sea however in the Tobusekai lands."
"I'm not sure, it was lost some time ago. Have you found anything recently? I can almost sense it's presence nearby, calling out to me. I can't say what it looks like exactly but I know it's near."

Lucifer thought for a moment, he hadn't found anything recently but he was given an item by that dying man, the same strange item had spoken to him, it had directed him to the exact place where he coincidentally witnessed the birth of the god baby, though he didn't realise this at the time, discovering it later on in the lands of Tobusekai as the child cured those inflicted with red fever with barely a thought.

"I'm afraid I haven't stumbled across anything, however a man from distant lands gave me something that seems ancient, an orb of sorts, I've been spoken to through this strange device before, the voices were unfamiliar but no doubt knowledgeable, perhaps even to an extent of foresight. These voices after all directed me to the exact location where the god child was born, however the relic has since fallen silent."

Lucifer stated plainly to the man, hoping to help him where possible.

He had Madara in the first half, saying he hadn't come across anything of worth recently. However, the mention to the man from distant lands who gave him an orb stood out; It even directed him to the God Child, which also helped their plans. He met the God Child and they planned to go there soon which would mean he might had information that could help them. Madara's thoughts wandered back to when he met Imeroth and what he told him about the Relic Weapon.

This is Kuniumi, the first of ten Relic Weapons created at the Sunlit Forge. Perhaps the orb was much like Madara's weapon when Imeroth first showed it to him, energy that hadn't settled into shape yet. Madara even felt his own weapon growing over time, becoming stronger as he continued to use it. Perhaps the orb was the same..

"This voice, I believe I've heard it once before. It mentioned weapons of divine origin and the Sunlit Forge...perhaps the two are linked. After all, it led you you to the God Child and I was told the Gods created these weapons. I believe you may have found one in its infancy prior to its awakening. Perhaps we can assist one another in our plans. Do you know anything about the Forge or the Child's location?"

Coming from [x]

...The weather had not be in their favour, Alucard his pokémon along the colossal statue would wash up on the south west shores of Theodoro. They had already been here quite recently and some of the gigantic chakra signatures were still present, was it something worth investigating upon or was it simply a trap. It remained to be seen, for a night Alucard decided to meditate here for a while before trying to breach the stormy weather and head back home. LLM

Lucifer listened to the man speak, he too had met someone who had knowledge of the divine. It was incredibly unlikely to be a coincidence, perhaps he was meant to assist the people before him, there was only really one way to ascertain that truth.

"I would be happy to assist you, though my knowledge is limited at the moment as well. My travels in the Tobusekai lands allowed me to discover a considerable amount about the cult that plagues these lands, the dark haired man who held the Sharingan, I believe him to be one of them, Sai Uchiha was what the former king called him. The god child vanished from Tobusekai as far as I know, and more information about him hasn't been revealed as of yet. The only new information is regarding a storm raging over the land that hasn't subsided for days, this area sounds familiar I believe it was a ruined city I flew over once."

Lucifer spoke to the man and his allies, holding the book of enoch in his hand as he did so, relaying information gathered from the device, it was linked to the noticeboards after all. However the forge he asked about was something Lucifer hadn't heard of, in all his travels he hadn't encountered anything like that, though there was one island where he had seen ancient structures, seemingly frozen in time, it was the strangest place he had been, it was also where he was born again.

"There is an island, in the Hokubu ocean, no ships can reach it's shores, time upon the island seems almost at a standstill and there are ancient monuments I've seen nowhere else in this world. Perhaps you can find the answers you seek there, if not then I will return there anyway, once I have gained information myself. We should meet there in time, I will show you on your map of it's location."

Coming from [x] and relinquishing control of @Mirai and @Never

Docking at a desolate island, Merlin was surprised by the sight. His recollection of the land here was far more vibrant and filled with life than its current state. But he was not there to survey, and so he dismissed those thoughts and resumed his search for Solomon. Reactivating his sensory, the incubus detected a number of chakra signatures, all of them remarkably powerful, and one of them unmistakably belonging to the King of Magic. Motioning to Lena and Mirabelle to follow with haste, they begin to move along the shoreline that ran tangentially from the dock towards Solomon's chakra signature.

Type: Supplementary
Rank: C
Range: Short - Long
Chakra cost: 15 (- 5 per turn)
Damage points: N/A
Description: This is a very advanced of advancing the ability to feel and sense chakra. The technique allows the user to concentrate and detect someone's chakra. Users can use this to determine the nature of a jutsu used as well as sense masses of chakra. The use of this can be compared to Sharingan's brutish level of sensory, able to sense collection of chakra but not the level of clarity and precision Byakugan has.
Note: Can only be used by bios with Sensory ability.
Note: After having on a bio for 1 month, users gain the ability to activate Sensory passively.

The beach stretched around the island, and eventually Solomon himself was in view. Upon reaching him, with Mirabelle and Lena in tow, he dispenses with the formalities and gets straight to business. Normally, Merlin was cagey about matters for which he could be blamed or held responsible for, but receiving more verbal abuse from his counterpart was the least of his worries currently "Solomon. The boy has been taken, and Shirou with him. I suspect it was one of the four. If there is anyone who might know where they were sent, it would be you." Merlin's desperation grew merely by relaying the situation to Solomon, becoming visible in his expression.

She was quiet far from home, now landing on the shores of a place she’s never been towards before. Her eyes where in awe for a moment but her attention to the wonders of nature began to fade away as they approached towards a whited haired individual. It took a moment for Mirabelle’s mind to realize to whom it was but the words “Solomon” slipped from Merlin’s mouth. It was her mentor that she hadn’t seen in literal years. She got word from Sado he was in Tsumigakure for a short period of time but she was busy with her own errands that day and was unable to see him. The King of Magic was always an enigma to her, from their days working together in medicine when Hanguri was still the leading world nation. How times was much simpler back then. She wanted to catch up more with him but there was no time for formalities or reunion in this moment. The child and Emiya are in trouble. “Solomon, its good to see you again, but as the gentleman here said, we don’t have much time…we need to save them as swiftly as possible. Please lend us your strength too, as I remember you being quite strong” she asked for him to join in on the fight to come.

Lena had been brought on quite the adventure with Merlin, though it hadn't been the most uplifting of journeys. Merlin seemed to have been serious and tunnelled in on his objective which she could not blame him for, they were on a serious expedition and Lena kept to herself as she came with him and finally arrived in Theodoro to meet with a man he referred to as "Solomon".

Both of the people who had came with them had addressed him, Lena had no idea who he was though - she just stood in the background with her arms crossed leaning against anything that may have been the same height as her. Listening for what next, she wondered if Sasuke was close behind.

Madara listened to the man speak, giving him key information he hadn't known. Apparently the Uchiha who had just left was named Sai, a member of the Mother Cult that had been known to roam Tobusekai's lands. If he was one of them....Madara needed to look more into this at some point. The biggest piece of information relevant to Madara's goals came almost in passing, almost given seemingly as an afterthought. The man spoke about a hidden island within the Hokubu Ocean where time was froze. Madara had never even heard whispers of the place but it was curious to say the least. Madara began to reason it was potentially linked to the myth of Tiamat, a tale he found himself learning more about every day.

"So the God Child isn't in the same location anymore.... Susabi, it seems we may have been a bit late. Either way, a market place can help us find a cure for Harley so that's no longer an issue. Anyway.... Perhaps I need to seek out this Forge soon. And this map you mention, how soon can you have it don-"

Madara paused, suddenly aware of chakra natures near him. Strong ones, it seemed. This place was a hotspot for activity, Madara thought. "There are a few new powerful people meeting the person who just left. Do you consider him an ally?" Madara needed to be sure of his surroundings as usual before acting.

"Yes the former human king is an ally, one of the people with him, his life force feels familiar to me. I believe I have encountered him in Tobusekai, with the god child. Perhaps if you seek the child you can speak to them with me, however if you wish to seek out the island, directions are easy enough I have this map right here."

Lucifer lifted a map from his pouch, one he never used anymore thanks to the technological advancement offered by his book of Enoch, placing his finger on the area where the landmark was, he scratched a circle around the location, in the middle of the Hokubu ocean. Before rolling the map up and wrapping a band around the aged leather to keep it sealed, tossing it to the Uchiha.

"I desire words with these newcomers, the decision is yours friend, either way we will meet again at that landmark." Lucifer stated as he turned in the direction of the gathering group.

Madara paused before answering, his choice could lead him into two very different directions. He could either seek out the God Child or he could attempt to locate the island this stranger spoke of. The Island could very well help guide him towards completion of the Staff and resurrection of the Ten-Tails should he continue down that path but the God Child....who knew how useful it could become in the long run? Acquiring it and using it's power could bring about the peace Madara sought after.

"...... No... I'll head towards the island for now. Our paths will cross again soon, that item that spoke to you holds mysteries for you to unravel," Madara said as he reached into his pouch, withdrawing a scroll. "Who knows when that may be but if and when it does, send a message along through this scroll. It's a communication scroll linked to one back in Tanigakure witha friend of mine. He will be able to relay any message you may have quickly. After you show me this map, I'll look into the land and see what I can discover."

"As you were then, until we meet again." Lucifer said with a smile, it wasn't completely genuine looking, mostly because smiling was such a human gesture and the child of Tiamat didn't really understand why or how it set people at ease, but he did his best to make it seem warm. Taking the communication scroll from the Uchiha, Lucifer pocketed the item and began to move away towards Solomon's location.

Upon reaching the area he saw many people now gathered around the former king, including the familiar face of the white haired man, Merlin he believed his name was, if his memory held. Lucifer approached the scene silently, interested in what was occuring but not wishing to interrupt.

Both of the people who had came with them had addressed him, Lena had no idea who he was though - she just stood in the background with her arms crossed leaning against anything that may have been the same height as her. Listening for what next, she wondered if Sasuke was close behind.

Coming from here

Sasuke wasn't that far behind and made sure to quickly dock and make his way to finding Lena and co. Grabbing a few rocks from the shoreline, Sasuke launched them into the air, transforming it into several birds that acted as a way for him to find the group, flying into several directions as he wandered forward.

"They can't be too far from here."

Sasuke said, knowing that he was a bit behind but he would surely find them here as well. After a while of searching, the birds spotted the group, and some other individuals, perhaps to where the odd man who he had met at the clinic before - had brought them. Odd individuals, but Lena seemed to be fine with them, and Sasuke merely followed suit. He could assist, he had the ability to. All he had to do was get the opportunity to showcase it once more.

Following the path along the beach, Sasuke came across them and merely remained in the background as he came closer. A simple tap on Lena's shoulder to show her he had come - but he didn't utter a word though as he was merely an observer at this point, not knowing anyone beside Lena.

Coming from [x] and relinquishing control of @Mirai and @Never

Docking at a desolate island, Merlin was surprised by the sight. His recollection of the land here was far more vibrant and filled with life than its current state. But he was not there to survey, and so he dismissed those thoughts and resumed his search for Solomon. Reactivating his sensory, the incubus detected a number of chakra signatures, all of them remarkably powerful, and one of them unmistakably belonging to the King of Magic. Motioning to Lena and Mirabelle to follow with haste, they begin to move along the shoreline that ran tangentially from the dock towards Solomon's chakra signature.

Type: Supplementary
Rank: C
Range: Short - Long
Chakra cost: 15 (- 5 per turn)
Damage points: N/A
Description: This is a very advanced of advancing the ability to feel and sense chakra. The technique allows the user to concentrate and detect someone's chakra. Users can use this to determine the nature of a jutsu used as well as sense masses of chakra. The use of this can be compared to Sharingan's brutish level of sensory, able to sense collection of chakra but not the level of clarity and precision Byakugan has.
Note: Can only be used by bios with Sensory ability.
Note: After having on a bio for 1 month, users gain the ability to activate Sensory passively.

The beach stretched around the island, and eventually Solomon himself was in view. Upon reaching him, with Mirabelle and Lena in tow, he dispenses with the formalities and gets straight to business. Normally, Merlin was cagey about matters for which he could be blamed or held responsible for, but receiving more verbal abuse from his counterpart was the least of his worries currently "Solomon. The boy has been taken, and Shirou with him. I suspect it was one of the four. If there is anyone who might know where they were sent, it would be you." Merlin's desperation grew merely by relaying the situation to Solomon, becoming visible in his expression.
"You utterly useless Incubus. The one time I agree to interfere, you fail to do anything about it." Solomon bemoaned Merlin, taking every opportunity he could to belittle the mage. But in truth the Mage King knew that Demetrias taking Emiya and Enkidu was inevitable, and so his insults were kept to a limit. "Fortunately for you, I do know where he was taken to. But you, and the rest of the party you have brought here, need to know certain things about our opponent before you attack."

Madara listened to the man speak, giving him key information he hadn't known. Apparently the Uchiha who had just left was named Sai, a member of the Mother Cult that had been known to roam Tobusekai's lands. If he was one of them....Madara needed to look more into this at some point. The biggest piece of information relevant to Madara's goals came almost in passing, almost given seemingly as an afterthought. The man spoke about a hidden island within the Hokubu Ocean where time was froze. Madara had never even heard whispers of the place but it was curious to say the least. Madara began to reason it was potentially linked to the myth of Tiamat, a tale he found himself learning more about every day.

"So the God Child isn't in the same location anymore.... Susabi, it seems we may have been a bit late. Either way, a market place can help us find a cure for Harley so that's no longer an issue. Anyway.... Perhaps I need to seek out this Forge soon. And this map you mention, how soon can you have it don-"

Madara paused, suddenly aware of chakra natures near him. Strong ones, it seemed. This place was a hotspot for activity, Madara thought. "There are a few new powerful people meeting the person who just left. Do you consider him an ally?" Madara needed to be sure of his surroundings as usual before acting.
Susabi broke his silence and replied to Madara. Well, if the child isn't where we thought he was. Then we have to find him. It's essential to your plan and essential to my curiosity. We should ask around the area to see where he might have gone. A divine child shouldn't be too hard to track. We just have the follow the miracles.

Unlike usual, Merlin didn't wince at the King of Magic's words, their bite far less poignant than the weight of his personal error. Rather, he kept things brief and to the point. He would ask for the information which Solomon deemed vital, were it not for the implications of his own words. He would inquire on that first. Looking over Solomon's shoulder for a moment, he saw the man that he'd met in the Last Bastion some time ago, Lucifer, standing a small distance away. Redirecting his gaze to meet Sololmon's, he spoke with a hint of agitation "It sounds like you won't be coming with us. For the sake of the very world itself, I hope that isn't true." The Magus of Flowers continued to be incredibly honest about the reality of the situation, hoping to change Solomon's mind if it really was the case that he wasn't intent on joining the rescue effort.

Lucifer listened to the conversation that was taking place and while he didn't have a huge stake in where the strange "god child" resided, he was concerned with the desperate look in Merlin's eyes as they met, the glint of recognition was there but overwhelmed with panic it seemed. It made sense that he was fearful, this child was capable of performing what they called miracles, the only difference between a miracle and a disaster for humans was the philosophical viewpoint, not just the humans though.

Lucifer thought back to the words of this Sai Uchiha, one who claimed to share his connection with Tiamat, he wanted to erase the humans it seemed, that would be his miracle, their disaster. But there was another who seemed to stand outside the sphere of concern forming among these humans, the former king Solomon.

Even while he berated Merlin, Lucifer had the feeling that the gears were turning in Solomon's head, figuring out what to do next, it was entirely possible he had expected this all along, should Lucifer be correct about this he would simply wait for the former king to speak once more, he acknowledged Merlin with a nod however.

Showing his recognition to the man he had formerly met, Lucifer wouldn't speak openly yet but he desired to help this human, the man had been kind to Lucifer before, most humans were fearful when they saw his pale skin, the horns and wings, marking the child of Tiamat as distinctly non human. Another familiar human was with Merlin, one that Lucifer had met back in the human city, the child of Tiamat nodded in acknowledgement to her as well.

For years the King of Israel practiced benign neglect, actively choosing to take no action, intervene in no situation, in hope that it would resolve itself. It was a policy that King David, Solomon's father, actively practiced and passed down to his son when he acceded to the throne. And it was a belief that constantly brought Solomon in conflict with the King of Demon Gods, his familiar, sealed within his body. Unlike Solomon, Goetia firmly believed in intervention; and so as Solomon prepared his response to Merlin in his own head, the Demon God King shifted angrily within. A sensation that even Solomon could feel, though one that he had become very capable of ignoring.

Solomon! You must take action. Goetia snapped from within, breaking his usual loyal demeanor and lashing out at his master. But the Mage King ignored him; the two often argued, but now was not the time.

"No, Merlin, I will be going. But I must ask you all..." Solomon paused for a moment, thinking of how to word what he would say next. "I must ask you all to do the most difficult, and that is nothing." He paused for a moment, waiting for their inevitable protest or concern. But the King of Mages had his reasons, and he would resolutely stand by them. Memories of his father telling him to stay his hand rather than act echoed in his mind, reaffirming his resolve. He waited for their questions or protests.
