((Well, all the High Geomancers will be connected. But I'm not really sure about anything beyond that.))

Tira nodded, "Thanks for the information." She threw down a few coins as a tip and strode out of the bar.

* * * * The next day.... * * * *

Major Ilani Tira stood near a fountain in the middle of the town, her arms crossed, looking very bored. She honestly didn't know why she was here. It was like some magical force had commanded her to come here, but she truly felt ridiculous. Just as she was about to leave, the lights finally flashed on. A small stage was illuminated and Lunetta Talim walked out onto the stage, microphone in hand. She began to sing, and this time, Tira felt that she was singing for others in the crowd, not just her.

((I'm sorry to skip ahead so suddenly, you can decide what your characters chose to do throughout the night. Some of you may also come to the concert (which is why Talim is singing for more people) and Talim will come around and talk to your character personally.))

Anka had stopped in a barn for the night. He had decided to keep what little money he had took for when he really needed it. He wandered around the village looking for a place to keep warm. He was wandering where he was going to go when suddenly a sound of someone singing, singing a beautiful tune, drew him in.
((The concert is on where? The inn? Anouther venue? Or what? I need to know if Joy'll be working or not.))

Ren looked down at Cosette, then at her pouch, realizing that Mint had already left its comfort to look at the other cat. It then purred, signaling that it liked her. She sighed: Mint wasn't normally very good with other cats.

"Your cat probably smelled Mint" she said,"She ran in to a clump of roses before, and came out with a pretty strong smell. It hasn't completely dissipated yet."

She picked up Mint, who was trying to leap on Cosette's tail. Stroking her, with the soft chime of her bell in the background, she introduced herself.

"I'm Talwin Renetta and this is Mint." she said,"May I ask for your name?"

(Short, but I have a runny nose, and whenever I blow, it becomes congested like 5 o clock rush hour.)

"Mm, probably..." Maya replied. "I'm Oceaic Maya, just call me Maya if you need to. This is my twin, Oceaic Neva, and her dragonet, Syler. And, of course, you already know about Cosette, my pampered little kitten," Maya spoke with Ren.

Syler flittered around, trying to figure out who this strange new person and her cat were. "Syler, stop that." Neva commanded. Syler immediately obeyed, and flew to Neva's shoulder. "Syler's just really curious, he explores everything and checks out everything he sees," Neva kept her cool tone of voice.

Maya scooped up Cosette, speaking, "Mint's an adorable cat, and she seems so playful. Bye, it was great meeting you!"

((Hey look, you must all hail the frying pan!))

Kalmarris was planning on going to the historical texts facility to research on geomancers as something had intrigued him about it. In class, once, it had been mentioned but the teacher immediately silenced them. He had never understood why or bothered to research it but today he had some spare time so he decided that it was time to find out. However, halfway to the facility, he heard a beautiful singing voice and decided to go check it out. It wasn't every day that somebody sung with such clarity and talent.

((In the middle of a square, near the inn, and near a fountain.))

Talim sang, she could feel the presence of a few being drawn towards her. After 10 more minutes of singing she stopped, gulping in deep breaths of air. The crowd applauded loudly, some people in the back whistling shrilly. Talim slipped around the back and drank a glass of water handed to her by her manager. She then pulled a dark cloak around herself and slipped around the dissappating crowd towards the fountain. She stopped next to Tira and tapped her on the shoulder, dropping the cloak back a little so the woman could see her face.

Tira turned to face whoever tapped her, and drew in a breath, her eyes widening, as she realised who it was. The woman smiled, holding out her hand in greeting, "I'm Lunetta Talim, shall we go for a walk?" Tira shook her hand stiffly and followed the young woman, "I-I'm Major Ilani Tira."

Talim smiled, "Do you like plants Major?" she asked, watching Tira's face for a response. She stopped, looking down at a tiny red flower nestled amongst the sidewalk. Tira stopped as well, looking down at the miniscule flower. "Yes.... I like plants." Talim looked up at her, face now solemn, yet still gentle. "You have a hidden power Major. At least, you will have a power." Tira's eyes widened, "Y-you must be mistaken, I've no Ankh on my wrist, nor any magical blood in me."

Talim looked at her passively for a moment, "Ask the plant to grow, Tira. I know you don't believe in magic, but you must at least try. Just look down at that tiny flower, feel its minute force, and tell it to grow." Tira's eyes hardened, she frowned slightly, then she closed her eyes and thought about the plant. She thought about its tiny leaves growing, its tiny roots extending, and its tiny flower opening wide. She was broken out of her thoughts by a sudden stinging pain on her left wrist. Opening her eyes with surprise, she lifted her wrist so that it was visible and gasped. She looked back down at the plant, now as large as a rose, growing out of the sidewalk. Then she looked back up at Talim, her forest eyes shining with confusion, and she turned around and ran.

And still the image of the black Ankh on her wrist shone in her mind.

((Dun dun dun! Tira's force has been awaken. Now who of those left shall approach Talim?))

((Now I'm in the next morning! So I gotta backtrack a bit))

The singer from the last night, Lunetta Talim, was singing once again. Maya went up to see, wrapped into her navy, almost black, cloak; and Neva in a cloak of the same colour went too. When the concert was over, Maya approached Talim, while Neva stayed behind. "Hi, Lunetta Talim. I heard you sing, and you were great! I'm Oceaic Maya, by the way. Is there any way you could teach me to sing like that?" Maya asked calmly, petting Cosette.

(Not get any money from concerts? Pickpocketing, hello?? )
(Oh, all hail Rune/Jim/Yukio!And any I may have forgotten!)

Ren watched the two walk away before heading over to the butcher's shop, picking up some bacon for her and Mint to munch on when they got home to their little Inn room. Walking near a group of teens, she overheard bits of conversation.

"-s great concert Tomorrow, Are you go-"
"-ure am! It's gonna be th-"
"-can't, it's too expensi-"

Looking up at the sky, she thought of the concert. Sure, it would be fun, but Mint wouldn't like loud noises, not to mention she wasn't a fan of crowds. Shrugging it off, she walked back to the Inn, the bag of bacon strips dangling off her side.

Anka was drawn towards the town square. He listened to the beautiful voice of the woman standing near the fountian.

She drew him closer. and closer untill He was at the front of the crowd...
<hr>
Joy was helping out with the equipment. She'd agreed to do it because Talim had always been kind to her.
She noticed a boy at the front of the crowd. She turned away. She turned back. She turned away. The boy seemed familier.

((Oops, I forgot about that. But looting is beeetter ))

Tira ran to a park and immediately dropped at the base of a tree. She crouched down, wrapping her arms around her knees. "What am I supposed to do?" she whispered to herself, "I can't be magical.... I just can't."

Talim smiled at Maya, she could feel the girls power radiating off her. "My singing ability is a gift from the Goddess Alea. I need it to draw forth those who have natural forces.... such as yourself." Smiling lightly, Talim reached down and clasped the girl's wrist, twisting it over gently, she smiled at the sight of the Ankh. "You can control water Maya. As can your sister control Ice. You are both destined to be powerful, which is why the Goddess sent me to find you."

Maya gaped at the sign that had appeared at her wrist. "The sign of the high geomancer... But how?" She traced the ankh over with her fingers. "This is amazing...Neva, please come over." Neva ignored the request, sitting by the fountain, freezing it over. "One last question: Who are the other geomancers?"

((Ooh, I just realised, wouldn't Waves and Moon be one of the really connected geomancers? And would that mean I'm connected to night too? And day if night is there? I'm confusing myself.. Sorta... Maybe not... ))

Joy aprouched Talim.

"Talim we're ready for the next son..." She noticed the Ankh on both the girl's wrist's and gasped.

"Oh my god. You're high Geomancers!" she said in amazement.
<hr>
Anka watched the girls that were surrounding Lunetta Talim. He couldn't go to her now... He had to wait till there were less of them.
((Writers block ¬_¬))

Talim turned to look at Joy, "How did you know about the High Geomancers...." Talim's eyes widened, the presence had been so hidden she hadn't noticed it before. She reached down and grasped Joy's wrist, the pale lines of an Ankh had appeared. "Joy, can you... try to make the Sun shine through the clouds?" She peered up at the sky, clouds completely covered it.

((I'll answer Maya's question soon Trinity, so don't think I ignored it.))
