    Edgar wakes up, lying on in an unfamiliar room. How he got there is a mystery to him. The small bedroom he finds himself in is almost silent, no noise except for a clock mounted above the door, ticking backwards. In the room he's in are two doors, a closet and a nightstand, but not much else.



    With a groan, Edgar helps himself up from the floor. He holds his head as he attempts to ascertain what exactly had happened to him. Nothing came of this-- his memories were too hazy. He had been on autopilot for the past few weeks, passing towns and lazing around at inns, trying out various foods... and then what next? This was the first time he had actually thought clearly in weeks; unfortunately, it was all too hazy, and he could not think of what had happened before he ended up in this room.

    Edgar sighs and turns his attention to the situation before him. He glances around the room, before eventually stopping at the clock, something which seemed to be of interest.
    "Right, then-- what have we here?" he mutters to himself in a decidedly British-sounding accent as he inspects the strange clock before him. He reaches for the clock and grabs it, checking its inner workings for anything suspicious that had been causing the clock to reverse.

    Renard neared closer and closer to the hooded figure, though nowhere near them yet. His eyes were still fixated on the sword the figure was resting their hands on. The more he looked at it, the more he got confused by its design. It was silver-coloured, mostly mechanical, but Renard could make out a few moving parts inside the sword itself. He also realises oddly that the sword was not as unusually tall as he thought it was, and instead that it looked that way since the mysterious figure was almost child-like in appearance because of their height, though he would have to get closer to make any conclusions. Eventually, Renard stops thinking about this and gets distracted by the voices presumably coming from the exorbitant amount of swords lying planted in the ground around him, due to the fact that they were starting to get louder and therefore clearer.

    His engineering skills will be of great use to our organisation.

    Brags to be 'the greatest engineer in all the lands', but his skills as a runewright...!

    This little runt? He's the chosen one? You gonna just pick some runaway?

    Your sister was a sacrifice for the greater good.

    This was all predestined.

    I'll protect them, even if it kills me! If you can't even understand that, I'll do the job myself!

    He's running off to face an army by himself. You shouldn't have angered him.

    Let the boy go. Everything is falling into place. Faux will fulfil his role.


    Those words were not directed at Renard, though it almost sounded like it was, nor were they spoken from the same person. Renard ascertains that each line had been said at a different point of time in the past, by a different person. He briefly racks his brain-- the name Faux was extremely familiar to him, though his almost-8-year memory gap made it impossible to remember.


    His mind begins to wander off to another topic, and he begins to wonder what was happening currently in the mansion. He hopes to himself that he hadn't somehow been stabbed in his sleep and that this wasn't some sort of afterlife. Renard thinks about that for a second-- maybe it was best if that had happened. No one would miss him, or so he thought. His mind wanders off again and his gaze once again focuses on the figure in the distance with the golden coat, still seemingly flickering in and out of existence with no explanation. Their attire and sword were all too familiar; if only he could remember.


    Renard's body's in danger... but the restoration process can't be interrupted. I have to take over, for his sake.

    "What a nap," says 'Renard', yawning serenely as he awakens almost waist-deep in water, no thanks to being considerably shorter. His voice sounds much higher than normal, like that of a child. "Huh...? What's with all this water..."

    His sentence trails off as he slowly glances up at a large spider flying past him, and he recoils backwards into the wall behind him.

    "F-f-f-f--"

    It doesn't take long for a high-pitched scream to resound throughout the room.

    Renard breathed a deep sigh as he watched Ariel's back move away from him. He clenched his fist, causing a few grains of black powder to mysteriously fall out of his hand. The signs were unmistakable. Everything strange that had happened since they started travelling; it had all seemed to be centered around Ariel. Someone was out for him. Renard knew he had to protect him. Throughout his life-- even through dark days in memories he had forgotten, he always had to protect what he cared about. A plan begun to hatch.


    "Hey, Ariel... catch!" says Renard, tossing his pistol at Ariel. "You can look at it if you like-- it's my magnum opus, least I think so."

    "Well, I haven't had much breakfast, so I'm kinda hungry really. But it seems that the two of you would rather go and explore..."
    As Ariel wanders off, Maras nudges Renard, and points out Ariel's skipping.
    "What's with him?" He asks, keeping his voice low enough so that Ariel wouldn't hear him.



    Renard looks at Ariel carefully for a few seconds, and then grins, leaning in closer to Maras.
    "Must be the menopause," he whispers. "Poor guy... he's even starting to exhibit the mannerisms of a lady."

    Renard watches Betty walk out the door, dismissing Ariel's little rant with a chuckle.

    "Sorry, man," sighs Renard to Ariel. "I've changed my mind-- the women in this place are damn crazy."

    Even in his mind altered state, Ariel is freaked out by what he is seeing. He remembers Annie from the inn but, because of the condition he is in, he manages to almost convince himself that his brain was playing tricks on him, as he heard that drinking too much can do that to some peoples minds. But just to make sure it wasn't real, he looks at Lyudmila and Renard, somewhat confused, and asks;

    "Can either of you two see a little girl standing right there? That... that girl from the inn earlier?" He points to the spot Annie is standing.


    Renard gives Ariel a strange look.
    "How 'bout you sober up before you start causing any more trouble? Somebody get this guy some water," he says.

    Lyudmila shakes her head. "Apologise first. Both of you."

    "Fine, fine fine," replies Renard, "I'm sorry and I'll not provoke people in the future."
    His words did not ring true.

    "I'm not drunk! Just really happy all of a sudden.... What you, you dink that wad fast? We were walking for ages!" Ariel looks at his half empty first bottle. "Oops."

    In the main room, he declares. "Hey, I know you two!" He rips of the cape and slings it at Renard and it lands draping over his head. "Oh, woops again, sorry about that. Aaaand, try and excuse the smell, the inside of elephants will do that to a cape. And how you do'n there, you country bumpkin?" He says to Betty and gives her a nudge on the shoulder."

    He then turns his attention to Lyudmila - "You! However, I do not know at all, besides the wild stories your little Maras here has told me - but I'm feoling lucky that dat's about to change!" He says, reaching out to shake her hand. "I'm Ariel, second hand angel, pleased to meet ya!"


    "What the-- hey, run it over at the sink before you start hanging it in front of my nose! The hell did you do to it!? Help, the torture device is being used for its intended purpose!"

    Betty spits out her food in shock. "You said what now?? How dare you talk to my little friend that way!"

    Betty gets out of her seat and punches Renard square in the mouth, with the famous left hook that had made many boys bleed in her life. "Now you take that back and have some respect for the ladies you meet in life, you ugly mongrel child!"

    Still no satisfied and really, really angry, she suddenly finds herself uttering a chant - she wasn't even aware she was doing it when right there, just behind Renard, three wild wolves appeared out of thin air and attacked him like they hadn't eaten in a week, completely ignoring everyone else in the room.

    Renard immediately crumples to the floor. He wipes the blood off his mouth and, incredibly, still has time to talk more trash before the wolves appear.
    "Oh, man, you're a feisty girl, aren't you? Well, we can put it this way-- do you wanna learn what the difference is between a pretty face and a pretty stain?"
    It wasn't the first time Renard had started a fight. It always happened with people who didn't know how to loosen up. The three wolves appearing out of nowhere broke up his thoughts.
    "Jesus! This party's gettin' crazy! Let's rock!"
    Renard, still lying on the ground, fires off all three shots from his flintlock at the wolves, and then slides under the table, kicking it with enough force to turn it upright. From behind the table, he looks pleadingly at Lyudmila for help. She wouldn't want the place any more ruined, would she?

    "Ohhhh, yeah, I'm sure." Betty tells Renard as she starts eating her breakfast. "You say that now, but the next thing I know you'll be asking me to come into another room because you want to ""show me something""" yeah, I've heard it all before, not like I came down in the last snowfall or anything. Actually, I kinda did, but that's not the point." While she is talking, somewhat with her mouthful, she looks down at herself to make sure she isn't sticking her chest out involuntarily. She had been known to that when she though a guy was cute. But she didn't really want to let Renard know she thought he was an attractive man, at least not this early in the piece - but dammit, sure enough she was doing it again! She deliberately hunches over then, making sure she doesn't do the pop the chest routine anymore and looks around for her dragon friend to change the subject.

    "Anyway, my name's Betty, and my little friend here... come to think of it, I don't think I know her name just yet. She calls out to Chisille - "Hey there sweetie, what is your name by the way?"

    Renard rolled his eyes, apparently thinking Betty was a lost case. The girl had managed to have a bigger mouth than Renard of all people; something he wasn't particularly fond of.

    As she hears her nickname 'sweetie' be called out once more, she takes a break from looking outside the door at all the snow and, oddly enough, snowmen. She licks her lips in preparation to speak. 'Gonna have to reveal everything... They'll all ask for everything about me at some point...' she thinks to herself as she looks up at Betty.

    "I... my name... haven't used for years. Last time was used, I was caught. They called me... what was it what was it... Chi? No, longer... Chisille? Yeah yeah, that was it. They called me Chisille." she replies to Betty's question.
    Her anxiety grew slowly as she thought about what the others would think of her name. Would they burst out laughing? Would they be surprised that she even had a name? The list of thoughts kept going on and on while she waited.

    At first Renard is shocked by Chisille having talked, but he covers it up with more of his sarcastic remarking.
    "Wow, I've never seen a talking mutt before. Now you'd definitely take first place. I'm just a little disappointed your name isn't Fido after all," shrugs Renard.
