Normally I'd say plot but since it's a crossover you can't really guess so I dont know what to expect. Thus I say character interaction -
(Don't worry. It changes nothing plot wise. it's basically just an excuse to use for the big bad to know what's going on.) Shaun Shaun was just about to continue his rush when he heard someone mention an armory. He controled himself and threw away the spear he had been holding. He noticed some of the were already following. Best thing he could do is hope Marcus won't get hurt suck it up and act like he belonged there ... How hard could it be? Somehow he ended up being the third to follow right after Mark. Marcus and Edren "Easy there boy easy. he said to the griffon he was riding and kept taking sharp turns through the city streets flying as low as he could. He was worried about archers or anything that could strike him from the sky but was soon distracted by a very unusual raven. "Well this looks bad." He said to himself making his mount slightly uneasy. A few pats on the head managed to calm it down however and he gained just a little altitude to see what was happening in the sky. In the middle of everything he saw a dense concentration of the black feathered birds flying in circles around something. Even through the mass of avians he felt a a dark gaze directed at him and for some reason he heard all the Ravens scream "Master hungers master thirsts. Will his wrath befall you first?" As he understood that he made the griffon take a dive and began makind distance between him and the presence.

Deuce needed a few moments before he managed to collect himself. He just then realized again where he was standing. Even so he cheered up slightly once Rufus said he’d help. ‘Calm down … Now think. This isn’t a bad pirate crew … Is it? … No it can’t be. If they were then they’d have already sunk probably.’ He cast a gaze at Conrarto and then down into the floor. It was strange how he already felt slightly at home. Then came the fuel news. “Um … Mix in a little alcohol and it should last a little longer.” He said out of reflex. That was usually the case when he advised Arian how to not crash. The news was quite good at least for him since Hylvana was definitely an area of interest for Orient. He looked back up at the captain and trailed away in thought. “Well if you’d want I could. I mean I have no idea how old this ship is but I can’t do much mid-flight … Aside from small maintenance. If I take out the wrong screw it could all go crashing down.” He chuckled a bit before taking a look around again. “I’d be happy to join.” Deuce slightly smiled when he said that. It relieved some feeling of abandonment and it felt much better that he wasn’t alone … albeit with a crew of pirates. “Tell me. How old is this ship? And I’m almost afraid to ask: Has it ever been shot down yet?” He instinctively remembered the first few questions when it came to orient trading.

Sorry about the inactivity will be posting tomorrow.

the manhunt might lead into a wild goose chase also this will be excelent for a ceartain suspicious merchant

Overextending is natual. Plenty of books anime and movies suffer from this. The trick is to make the absence relevant to the story in one way shape or form.

Deuce: With Rufus and co outside Kirle Deuce's face lit up the moment Rufus said they were nearing the location where the cryo pod was. After the words were uttered he eagerly followed Rufus to the hall following the one instruction he was given. However as soon as he reached the main deck he came into a state of shock. "This ... This has to be a mistake ..." He fell down to his knees and stared at the horizon. It was just one step off from tears for him. Didn't they care? Of course they did right? he just kept silently looking everywhere hoping he missed them but much to his dismay nothing anywhere. He was told about this some time prior by Grim. Any member of orient to leave the group under his own will or by chance will be left behind no matter if it's the leader or anyone of significance. "They're gone ... Just left ..." He felt those words escape him and he felt as if he were about to pass out. Another panic attack was not needed and he felt a tear go down his cheek. After he got a hold on his emotions (more or less) he stood up and wobbled backwards leaning against the mast. Questions surfaced and explanations appeared everywhere but he couldn't rationalize any of them. He went as far as invasion probabilities or any crisis that would excuse it but again nothing. "What do I do now?" He said out loud turning to Rufus but soon understood that what he was asking had no chance of finding fertile soil. He sniffed then sighed and began regaining what little composure he could.

bot not on dorian don't the others have things that block oryx's power? rest assured Dorian will back-stab almost everyone
-
even so if oryx looked through his eyes he'd not find anything
-
Finding out will be the fun part
-
they met Dorian not grim
-
YES YES YES I knew he was going to show up kingdom decides but i think it's legit
-
Ok wha?

(It said several small groups most covert and doing sabotage. It's actually a pretty common tactic to use a small group as a diversion whilst spies slip in among the confusion.)

The big bad's entrance: With the army assaulting the kingdom of Ur Edren Lorven sat high and mighty on a throne he had several slaves carry. Small elite groups were mobilized throughout the city and his was the task to coordinate them. Using flocks of ravens his messages flew to the groups in giving the orders. His main objective here was not conquest however but more on the lines of assassination. Some of the parties had invaded only to retreat moments afterwards and some just vanished into the crowd. He gave a smirk at his own plan and looked at one of his pets. "Endymion ... So it seems... The malediction will eventually spread and these worms will be crushed by the onslaught. So do not worry my dear Endymion you will drink your fill." He said all that to one of his pets as he were conversing with it. The one he spoke with now in particular was marked with a small golden chain on it's claw. He raised a hand for the servants to drop his throne but as they did so several ravens grabbed ropes attached to it and began lifting. Soon it took flight and was soaring and obscured in a flock of his pets who obediently led their master over the walls so that he may personally oversee the situation. "Darkness fills your eyes and dulls your senses. Before you I am but a nameless shadow." he said to no one in particular and yet held a satisfied grin as he observed all the things that took place below him. He could feel the impatience of his flock and their desire for blood would soon be sated.

Lacking an antagonist? Fear not as thy savior hast come. I originally intended to submit this guy but was under "the feels" effect. Mistake will be rectified. Name: Edren Lorven widely known as "King of ravens" Age: 24 Race: high demon Gender: male Appearance: Personality: A very cold individual both to his subordinates and his foes. Often going out of his way to make a mess of his victims and very vicious. He does however act quite friendly to those who he deems worthy of interest. His thought process has a habit of skipping over parts as if they were common knowledge. Is extroverted but once again only to those who he deems worth it. Occasionally has a shift that leads him into madness. He calls this the call of the laughing god it is a state that persists for some time and gradually fades. Bio: I experimented writing it in first person. Is this viable? "A tale you'd not wish to experience. I was born to lead a pitiful worm-like existence deep within the most isolated mountains on the map. The indigenous tribes fought a meaningless feud which neither side remembered but continued saying it was tradition. There, among the secluded peaks I stood day and night hoping for A way to escape the fruitless, the mad and the deprived. I waited and saw horrors most minds would label unfathomable. Yet the ravens seemed to feast upon everything. It was not until I came of age that I realized ... No escape will be offered. How I felt betrayed by the world and how I cursed every living being for fooling me into that belief. And yet in that rage I was enlightened. I knew that the only way to reach Utopia was to pave my way to heaven ... And the only way to do so is to walk upon a bridge of corpses. After my realization it was just a matter of time before my actions escalated. it started as patricide and matricide but that lead further and further. In due time the tribes began to bow down before me and by uniting the many mountain tribes I formed something I deem acceptable. Soon It began escalating to etnocide, regicide and finally regicide. The male-storm grew and grew reaching numbers that would give me the power to shape this land, this continent and this world in my image. None on this world were pure and all must be cleansed by the purifying flames of war. The pestilence called Ur may exist but only should they forgo all tradition and all culture leaving only the identity of one united kingdom and one nation. Alas this will not be and so my crusade will begin. In order to ensure prosperity the selfish ideals of Ur must be put down. And in this I will triumph." Weapons: "the fourth rider's decree" a piece of parchment which when signed transfers the owners anima to the owner the swarm of ravens that keep following him Genetic Traits: naturaly high resistance to most forms of magic Powers: Darkness manipulation. He can solidify shadows and use them to cut (kinda like pride in FMA) or simply to turn himself into a shadow. Signature attack: "the malediction of the fourth rider" uses a quill of a raven to make an individual sign a contract (using the shadows to force him) selling the victims life span for power. It takes some time but the pain the victim feels is the fullest extent of the brains capabilities to exhibit pain.

Deuce - outside Kirle with Rufus and co As soon as the appointment was finished Deuce gave one of the signature Orient bows knowing only that it was used to "I honestly don't know what to say. I am grateful for your aid." As he said that however his eyes began scanning the herbs and the rune. It was all fairly new to him and he couldn't help but wonder what was in those herbs. True the odor was awful but then again so was Arian's after a long day. Just now he realized something. It was a thing he didn't really expect he'd know. He shook it off and turned back to Rufus. "Not sure if it's right to ask but how come you are pirates?" His words were filled with the curiosity you'd expect from one his age questioning the motive of a man who took the path he's been brought up to avoid. Dorian /flashback in Langerdon He ventured out into the market where he felt most at home as it was he didn't really believe what had just transpired with Oryx then again this was all planned. He took a seat on a two sided bench. As he did so a voice spoke from behind: "You have what you said?" "No but better. Seems the empire is moving to attack." He said that without batting an eye or moving at all. To most it seemed as if he was just talking to himself. "Where? How are they moving? How many?" The questions followed one after another as the man behind almost had a heart attack whilst saying that. "Try to calm down. Payment before information. I don't know who you work for or why you do. I don't know your face, name nor your voice. Let's keep it that way." there was a moment of silence before the other person was prepared to speak. A pouch of coins was passed from one to the other and then weighed. "Good enough. It's a last second sell so it makes sense there wouldn't be much." Dorian said still not moving. He kept his charade quite convincing. "Kaipora and Hylvania. Oh and if anyone wants to ask hurry up there's not much time." Before he could finish the one he sold it to began rushing away leaving only the payment. "A pleasure doing business with you." He smirked to himself and proceeded to stand up and be on his way. (Arian is still stranded, Jonathan and Grim are still en route to Langerdon and Nalia is still with them and unconcious. I didn't bother putting all that up since it has no relevance.)

Marcus had his fun with several books whilst he found the time to sneak about the library. He managed this by asking a bird where people sit for long periods of time silently. It was quite effective and with a little gymnastic know-how he got in precisely where he intended. He did show his older brother beforehand that he was about to venture inside and a reluctant nod was the reply he received. It was strange how everything was devoid of information about the spring they were looking for. Then suddenly debris began to fall around town. To this he quickly got to the window and whistled in a strange manner. In mere moments a gryphon swooped down from high altitude and past the window where he had entered and awaited for him to mount. He did si in a jump out the window. "C'mon we have to find Shaun." Back in the training grounds Shaun was failing miserably at his intended role of being unnoticed. Lucky for him or rather unlucky for UR the catastrophe started. Immediately he gazed around his eyes searching for his brother and yet there was no sign. He was unsure whether the signs earlier meant that his brother went into the city or into the school. He assumed the former and began rushing out. As there was a crowd in front he was forced to use his physiomancy to make a massive leap scaling quite literally the whole crowd. His pace grew as did his confusion as he shouted:"Marcus! Marcus!"

It can be labeled as standard procedure since plenty of info trades happen like that IRL

Wrong interpretation. If the spy and Dorian were sitting back to back in a way that they couldn't see each other then that would eliminate the danger entirely. Furthermore it would cause suspicion among the Oryx party since there'd be no proof. In fact if the seeing through his eyes thing yielded no evidence he could say someone else did it who knew about it to frame him.
-
It'd be possible but would he know a messiah spy who was sitting at Dorians back while they exchanged information? It's pretty common to do it that way so neither would know the others face in case they got caught. And if it were Messiah you could justify the caution. And I agree with Emerald that information like this should not leek so often. I will try to justify that as well as try to sew any plot holes that may occur if at all possible.
