bit late for the xmas party but nevermind

Ah. This is...

[ Karna stepped into the battlefield to find out that the entire thing has been replaced by the Plaza. He looked around, by all means looking as bored as ever, although there is a hint of being bothered underneath his nonchalant expression. He sighed, lowering his lance but keeping it by his side. ]

...an inconvenience. [ After all, he had been ordered to fight the Lancer of Black, and, although this entire thing is beyond his control and not to be concerned about (he had a legendary bad luck, after all), it is still inconvenient. He turned to the nearest person, his tone polite and aloof, but at the same time there is the vaguest hint of a threat. ]

Where is the way out?

[ To all passersby: there is now a young man dressed in an elaborate-looking armour with an equally matching lance and red cape, and he's kind of...fairly underdressed for this season. For those of you magically inclined, he's also exuding magical energy...very much so. Thankfully, he's not under one of those mistletoes yet, so he's still free to move. He had a somewhat bored expression, his fine features regal and distant. You might be the lucky person who either both spotted him entering the Plaza and being asked, or merely the latter. Either way, the Heroic Spirit is talking to you. ]

She smiles softly, "interesting, we..have various sorts of folks unfoutunently a fair few use their gifts for selfish and evil things. " She informs him. And nods, yeah sounds about right. "cultivation and training, is important." She agrees.


Her eyes soften and her shoulders sag a little. "ah I see, my condolences." She replies sincerely and politely. Yep, he seemed the consummate soldier through and through.

"That's a virtue , sadly not many seem to practice nowadays." She replies softly and wistful.


She blinks, and looks at him softly, "Well, if you're sure..and ah don't feel the need to be..um shy about asking questions around here.. there are lots of helpful folks." She informs him. "Usually you'll find a good group of folks in the plaza most days. " She informs him warmly.


She chuckles softly, "Aye tis, though some days it's more lively than others." She murmurs and glances around as she leads him toward the large stone steps. It was indeed filled with all sorts of things and possibilities. One never knew who or what ya might run into.

ty!!! also sorry he ain't very talkative rip

[ He blinks, knowing exactly what kind of people she means. He...has to work with some of them, and Karna isn't by any means stupid despite being the consummate soldier and an obedient Servant, he merely looks the other way and do his duty. Some would say that he is siding with evil by passively letting evil existing, but this is not like when he was still alive. He was a Servant summoned for a certain purpose, and that purpose takes precedence over everything else. Besides, what others use their Gifts for is not his concern. Karna merely do what needs to be done, gives what he has to give. ]

Ah. Yes. [ He says nothing more on the subject. It's her right to judge them, too, and it's none of his concern, either. ]

It happens. [ He merely said, shrugging, and then remembering his decorum. Karna kind of...sucks at it. ] Thank you, Lady.

[ ... ]

But if a lot of people practised a virtue, or are virtuous, it wouldn't be a virtue, would it? And there would not be any Heroic Spirits or Heroes. That is why we're here.

[ That is what it means to be a hero. But that's not what she asked for, so Karna kept it to himself. He kept a lot of things to himself and keeping to himself is what he do for the most part, although he's not shy. Not really. ]

I see. Thank you for the information.

[ He gave her another curt nod and followed her as they climbed over the stone steps. He glances at the entrance, there are some people milling around and everyone is dressed in all sorts of manner, so no one really paid him attention. Well. Just his lance, actually. But he doesn't pay them any heed. ]

Mm. It does seem to be that kind of place.

Re: no probelm, ^^ its alright. Strong silent type eh? XD

She nods softly.


"You're most welcome." She replies automatically. But no less sincere.

She hums not sure about that. "I suppose striving towards something is important..But at least trying is better than the opposite. " She replies and shudders. She'd seen the dark side of batches of people at least not being compassionate or trying to empathize with people. She'd had to patch people up and bring them back from the brink more times then she could count.

Because of they either we're stubborn or prideful about something and got in over there heads. Especially with the whole eye for an eye mentally.
A part of her wondered why she bothered, another part couldn't..just well she couldn't just give up and quit on people.

Hence, the Nexus being a Godsend of sorts. She needed time to recharge her batteries as it were.


She nods, "your most welcome, happy to be of assistance. " She replies with a warm smile.



She pauses and glances back at him, with a small smile. "Indubitably. " She murmurs and then closes her eyes for a moment and takes a deep breath. She always loved Libraries with their smell and peaceful ish air. And worlds of knowledge etc at your fingertips. As well as adventures without having to leave yer chair.
