Elrandir

Her job as Nagato is great. It's a little like 2B from NieR. No jokes, always straight to the point, somewhat emotionless. It's fantastic. So Rabs. Liam is an amazing voice actor. I can see him playing Alderon. I think Sif would be Yuri Lowenthal,Aura would be Kira Buckland, and I don't have a voice in mind for Aurion.

Rabs' voice actress would be Minori Chihara, the woman who gives voice to Nagato Yuki.

A novel about Overworld would be very awesome. I'm pretty excited, and I can't wait until we can read it. A toast for Overworld and future projects! I feel honored that you deemed Rabs worthy to, maybe, take the place of Raiden.

It's alright, I am sure everyone understood what you were trying to say Mystic. Isopolis here we come! Can't believe that in two weeks the rp will have its second anniversary. Man, time flies! We are near the end guys. Let's do our best to give this story that we have worked on for the past two years an amazing finale.

Same with Aura. Odin's scent is the only thing she noticed besides the patch in his eye, but like you said, that would be because the attack. Rabs didn't say anything because there is no need to. Sure, Raiden was "attacked" and she didn't saw what Raiden was doing because she was focused on Athena and Alderon, and because they were in a place she could see with her rune. And even if she knew that Raiden is now Odin, if the goal is still the same, to save the world below, then she would still help Odin.

- Rabiyu, Aura, Sifrei - Raiden's Study - "I noticed that too. He feels...different, his scent is the same but different at the same time, and I am sure Rabiyu thinks the same, " Aura whispered back, "Don't worry, I will keep my eyes open just in case something happens." Rabiyu was about to answer Helios when Arthur walked closer to her and grabbed her hands, the second person who had done that that day. The young boy looked both surprised and relieved to learn that the princess was alive, Rabiyu didn't understood why he was thanking her, nor why was he so happy to learn of such news. She, nonetheless, offered a curtsy nod. "Yes, the princess is alive and well. She is currently with her father in his room. And I am sure that you can see her, if you go to His Majesty's chamber," Rabiyu said while looking at Arthur, "Although I would recommend to give them some time together. The king just learned that his daughter is alive, and that her curse has been removed thanks to a wish she made with the wishing lamp, not without first trying to wish for the restoration of the human world, of course." "So the princess is back to her human form?" Sifrei asked, "That's even better news." "Indeed. I offered her the chance to wish for her curse to be broken, but she instead wanted to see if restoring her world was possible. Once she learned that doing that would require more powerful magic she wished for her curse to be broken," Rabiyu answered, "She is a good girl, I can see that. The suffering she must have endured during her time being cursed by the Black Witch must have been awful, and yet, she was more worried about the rest of the people. She is back to normal now, so the king can focus on the trip to Isopolis better now."

- Aether - Private Shuttle - "I've been to a lot of places, I've seen a lot of things that nothing really fazes me anymore. As for your other question. That is such an important question, Kira," Aether said without looking at the woman, "I wonder..." Aether then closed her eyes and remained silent. What should she answer? The fact was that she barely remembered much about the group she worked for. True, she remembered the besic rules, but after having her memory erased many times ever since she joined she actually stopped trying to remember anything at all. Friends, foes, allies, bonds, all meaningless at the end of a job. "The truth, dear Kira, is that I do not really know. I do not remember much about who I work for, basic procedure, really. Return to consiousness, get a job, perform the job, report to the higher ups, report to a designated place, memory wipe, repeat. As you can see, I cannot answer your question," Aether said calmly, "If my companion didn't report back, then they probably are dead, and if I don't give signs then perhaps they will think I'm gone too. Avoid being captured at any cost, to die without leaving a corpse, nor any way for anyone to obtain information... That is the way." - Aurion - Private Shuttle - Control Room - "Geological surveys, you say? peculiar, but not the strangest I've heard," Aurion said, crossing his arms, " In Radiant Garden, correct?" Aurion thought about it for a moment. Radiant Garden was a place he had heard of, but not been there personally. It was said that a wise man once lived there, a scholar of the heart. "Well, it's not like I have any other job offerings right now," Aurion said with a little chuckle, "and if you are offering me a job, I don't see a reason to not to accept it. You have yourself a deal, Simeon."

- Rabiyu and Aura - Raiden's Villa - Alderon's room - Aura was very surprised at the change that the king had. Once upon a time she had thought the man ruthless and harsh, worried only with important topics regarding his own power over his people. But this? this made her really realize that even a man such as him was still that, a man. One capable of feeling sadness and joy, just like any other person. Both she and her elf companion walked into the room and waited until the king was ready. The young woman felt both awkward and confused when King Alderon kneel once more and kissed each of their hands, then offering a handsome reward for their deed. At this Rabiyu held the king's hand and helped him to stand up. "There is no need for such reward, king, as your gratitude is more than enough to show your appreciation. I thought it would be in our best interest that you reunited with your daughter before we left to Isopolis," Rabiyu said while looking at Alderon, "Now that we know what the shrine holds, I am sure the risks of trespassing into it will be evident to all by now. I merely wish for your mind to be at peace in this difficult task that we have ahead of us." "What she meant to say is that we are happy that the princess is well and safe now, and that she is finally cured of her curse and back with her father. Apparetly she was under the custody of the regent of Kilkis Seres," Aura said, "which is a great surprise when you think about it." "I think it is time for us to return to the study. The time to leave is drawing near. I will give you and your daughter some time together, but I must ask that you do not take to much time to return. By your leave, Your Majesty," Rabiyu said while bowing. "If you excuse us," Aura said without bowing, "we will let you have some privacy." Aura was the first to leave the room while Rabiyu stopped at the door. She stood there for a few seconds before finally turning around to face the king and his daughter. "We fey may live for a long time, and I am sure humans will think that is a blessing, but that also means that once something is lost it will remain that way for a very long, long time. Our lives are both a blessing and a curse in that regard., Rabiyu said while looking at the young princess, "Your daughter is young and inexperienced in the way the world moves, but I am sure that she could be a great queen someday. She showed that to me mere moments ago, when she wished for a way to restore your home rather than to cure her affliction. It shows that she cares for others, even when she has suffered. You have a good daughter, king, never forget what she means to you." The white haired elf turned around once more, grabbed the knob and closed the door, then she followed Aura towards the study. It took only a moment but along the way Aura asked Rabiyu if she could hold onto the lamp for the time being, the reason being that it would be hard for her to conceal the item, Rabiyu accepted, as it would be safer inside her own pocket dimension. Both girls finally arrived at the study, Aura was the one who opened the door. She was about to speak but she immediately sensed something was different once her eyes saw Raiden. She scanned the room until she found Helios and made her way to him. "Did something happened while we were gone?" Aura whispered to Helios. Rabiyu, on the other hand, stood at the entrance, staring at Raiden, or rather, Odin, without saying anything, until she felt the hand of Sifrei on her shoulder. "Is everything alright?" Sifrei asked Rabiyu, "You left quite suddenly." "Yes. Yes, everything is alright. I just had to speak with Aura for a moment," She said while turning her attention to Raiden/Odin, "Your Lordship, I wish to report that the daughter of king Alderon, princess Athena, has been retrieved by means of a wish I made. I am sure that with this situation King Alderon will be in a better state of mind for our journey into the shrine of Isopolis. We also learned that the princess was in custody of Yevgeni Malachite, who told the princess that he would return her to her father, which I am not entirely sure was true or not. I think we should be ready to leave once the king come back."

I was thinking the same for a moment, then I remembered that other character's name. The one I meant was mage Clow Reed from Cardcaptor Sakura. He died and his spirit was later reborn inside another kid who knew a little about his own past memories, amd could also use some of his power, but they were different from one another.

I think that was the point from the very beginning. Sure, the character may have some glimpses of Shiva's memories and quirks, but she is not Shiva, she is her own person.

- Rabiyu and Aura - Raiden's Villa - Rooftop - With Rufus and Athena - "Glad to help?" Aura said, slightly surprised by the princess' behavior, "It was finally time for you to return to normal, princess. It is nice to see you happy." Rabiyu looked at the young girl and her reaction after retuning to her normal self, she was glad for her and surely that would help with the king. Two birds with one stone. "There is no need to thank us, princess. Your father said that you suffered by your condition. And from now on, that is over. It is time for you to regain your life," Rabiyu said with a faint smile, "I will take you to your father now. I hope that he can find solace in knowing that his daughter is alive and well. Please, follow me." Without saying another word, which was normal for her, Rabiyu made her way towards the place where the human king was, followed closely by Aura behind her. In her mind she was wondering what could trigger that sudden feeling of change, of dread. The elf only hoped that it wasn't something that could prove detrimental to their cause. Thanks to the rune she had placed around the house it was easy to find Alderon, he was in his own quarters, which were easy to find. It took a little time to arrive thanks to having to dodge a lot of the people around the villa. Once in front of the King's room Rabiyu knocked. "Your Highness? pardon the interruption. It is Eliltari, Lord Raiden's associate," She said calmly, "May we be allowed to come inside? There is something important that you must learn."

What a coincidence. I had no idea that that was a thing.

If he learns that the queen's soul didn't go beyond the divine gate and instead is inside the girl, then I suppose he would try to get it before it has the chance to cross to the afterlife. We will see. Sounds like a good challenge for a nice reward.

Umbra collects either powerful or important souls, so Maxis could be a nice boon to his private collection. Same as Shiva's. Neither Raishan nor Umbra have any interest in Henry. He is not useful as a piece in Raishan's game nor an important soul for Umbra.

I'm sure Maxis would totally hate Umbra if he knew what he could do with the queen's poor soul. Sadly, I couldn't take those two to Kilkis in time for them to talk with Yev, so they don't really know where Shiva's body is. But perhaps there is another prize for them in the future.

Sequel progress: 10-15% (?) Too bad the Dragon twins didn't get their claws on Shiva's soul. Umbra would have been very happy to play with it, for a time. Hey! I'm glad that you guys are excited for a possible sequel. Makes me want to focus more of my free time to work on it. Giving her enough time I'm sure she will accept that her grandmother is gone and that she needs to move on, but that doesn't mean forgetting about Shiva, she would rather honor her memory.

The Ariana inside Henry's mind is more like an imprint of the real Ariana. She is neither alive nor dead, and she obviously is not the memories of the real Ariana. Also, all this talking about a potential reincarnation in any form for Shiva is mystics' idea if I made a sort of sequel to Overworld. A sequel that would take place in the northern continent. There's still quite awhile for that to happen, and I'm still trying to figure out many things so that sequel can actually happen, it's not 100% confirmed that it will be made. Not yet.

I remember a character from some anime I saw years ago, can't remember which one. The character was a reincarnation of someone from a long time before the current events, and they had some access to those memories, but not all. In the end the character told those who had know them that those were just memories they had inside their mind, but that they were not that person. I think Eclaire, Maxis and Yev (if they survive) could use that situation to finally accept that Shiva is gone, have some closure, or something along those lines. That's just an idea.

- Rabiyu and Aura - Raiden's Villa - Rooftop - With Rufus and Athena - Both Rabiyu and Aura looked as the Princess explained that she had no idea that Yevgeni was the regent of Kilkis Seres, which was not that surprising to Rabiyu. On the other hand, Aura was surprised the hear that the Regent treated the Princess kindly. Sure, she didn't really knew the Regent, but still, she had her suspicions about the man. "I'm afraid that at this point we do not know what Yevgeni Malachite is thinking, Princess. Our lives are long and ever changing, more than you humans, I mean," Rabiyu said calmly, "But you shouldn't worry anymore, you are safe within this city. And once you make a wish I will take you with your father." "It is fine to be selfish every once in a while, Princess Athena," Aura said to the young princess, "You deserve to be happy, just like everyone else. I am sure your father will be surprised once he sees you." The Princess looked unsure of what to do and Rabiyu could understand some of that doubt. Rulers had to put their subjects above themselves, after all. See for the well being of their people rather than their own needs. The young girl in front of her would make a fine queen, that's what Rabiyu thought, at least. Things could change in the princess' lifetime, which would be but a blink in the eyes of the elf. As the princess finally made her mind and wished for her self to return to the way it was, Rabiyu and Aura saw how her features changed from the dog-like creature to the face of a proper girl. At long last, the curse of the princess of Sondon came to an end. "All of this wouldn't be possible if it wasn't for you. You have my thanks, Rufus," Rabiyu said as she walked in front of the princess and took the lamp from her hands, "it is done. Your curse has been broken, Princess. Now, I think it is finally time for your reunion wi-" Some strange feeling came abruptly to the Judge Magister, her hand immediately moved towards her chest. Something had changed. Somewhere, somehow. She wasn't exactly sure what it was, but she had sensed it. Aura noticed the sudden change in the white haired elf and was about to ask, but the hand of Rabiyu was already up. "As I was saying, Princess, I think it is time for you to reunite with your father," she said in a calm tone as she turned around and gave Aura the magic lamp, "It is yours from now on. Only use it if you truly need it. Now, if you follow me, Princess Athena, I will take you to your father."

I'm fine with the time skip, and I'm fine with either play in a time before they arrive at Isopolis so they can have enough time to make some sort of plan, or being ready to enter the shrine. I'm ever so slowly working on small details of that possible sequel. Sometimes I get random ideas in the middle of the night that I think could be important. I also have random conversations and scenarios playing in my mind while I'm doing chores. It's an interesting experience. Will Raish, Umbra, and whoever is with them, succed in their plan? Will the Cinder King raise to bring destruction to the north, and possibly both worlds? Only time will tell. I think he will be able to see her before the journey to Isopolis now that her wish was granted. And Valdra is like. "By the Creator, will these children ever learn?" Shiva being the trigger that would cure Eclaire's amnesia?

- Aether - Private Shuttle - "That, my friend, is a good question," Aether answered, "sadly, I do not have idea of they even made it out of the palace, either alive or dead." The young assassin was slightly worried for the woman who was her partner in crime for some strange reason, and yet, in their line of work, those kinds of attachements meant nothing, not when you would forget you ever made them in the first place. "Which reminds me, I have to send my report at some point," Aether said while stretching, "once our ride is over, perhaps. If my partner in crime did their work, then I will get confirmation once I report back. Now I have to ask, why is your client looking for this Null-something-something? Is it so important that it was worth risking someone to infiltrate into the guard of one of the most secure places in all the worlds, just to find this person?" - Aurion - Private Shuttle - Control Room - Aurion was mostly lost in thought at the moment, looking through the glass at the vast void outside, how did all came to this? That was a question without a clear answer. At that moment he noticed the young man in front of him turning around to face him. "A...job? Well, that depends. What kind of work are we talking about? " Aurion asked, a slightly confused tone in his voice, yet is face was somewhat relaxed at the moment, "Because, let's be frank, I doubt you have any use for a delivery boy."

I was thinking about an event from a little while back. The soldiers/messengers that Yev sent to the north, and the ones who went to find Rabs. While I like to think that the ones who were looking for the highly charismatic elf succeeded in their work at some point during the time skip, I also think that the ones who traveled to the north were prevented from ever coming back. They probably would have used a flying mount or spell for a quick journey, and at some point before reaching either Exire or Heimdall they would have been stopped by my favorite dragon judges, Raish and Umbra. They would have told the messengers that Leviathan and Asura were indisposed, leaving the judges to handle their royal duties. After being told that Yev wanted to speak, the messengers would have been disposed of, and both dragons would have traveled to Kilkis Seres as diplomats of Levi and Asura. Raish would have asked for a meeting with the regent in private, and once there she would mess with Yev for a little while, telling him that a deceiver would recognize their own ilk, taunting him for his involvement in the murder of the Frostbearer, and offering small hints about a potential partnership if he helped both judges to get rid of Levi and Asura, the ones who sent the Judge Magister to help Raiden in his attempt to join both worlds. The dragoness would say to Yev that they do not judge his methods, and would have loved to help him, if only he had asked sooner. She then would tell him that Leviathan currently in a coma (only her vessel is) and that neither she or Asura would deal with him at the moment. She would then leave, but not without, once again, giving him hints that a partnership would still be available if he should desire. Whilte travelling back Umbra would tell his sister if Yev could be useful in the larger scheme they are plotting, meaning getting rid of the King of Kings and the Tide Mother, somehow control the other rulers, and complete a ritual to bring back a powerful being into the world. Raishan would say that Yev could prove a useful piece in their game, if he survived. Maybe another small point to had to my similar small list for a possible sequel? I have to keep my mind occupied so I don't remember that tomorrow is monday and that means going back to work.

Rabiyu rubbing her right shoulder while holding a script, wearing glasses, a formal suit and heels. Walking towards home. "It is a great character they said. It will be good for you they said." Behind her Sifrei is trying not to laugh. Aurion is helping Aura who is a little drunk at the moment. "You will work with great people. Just sign up and you will join this amazing project." "We are listening, you know that, right?" "Thanks for reminding me Rei. By the Pale Mistress...I NEED A DRINK!" "YEAH~ Let's keep the parteh!" "Yeah...No. No more drinks for you Aurora. Mom would kill me...again." Rabiyu look up at the sky and sighs. "This is my life."
