"Pleasure to meet you Sky and Fumi., and yes I adore them. Please call me Connie." Constance offered a polite bow, possibly marking her as coming from a higher class, but that could also likely be seen from her dress. "I am here on my own, although I believe my cousin to be somewhere in the...

Lost in her own little world, Constance wasn't prepared when a body bumped into her. Her small frame was knocked harder than one might expect. She was already mentally scolding herself for not paying attention to her surroundings. A small piece of the pastry she had been eating stuck in her...

Historic Square A delighted skip was in a young woman's step as she happily wandered through the square excitedly looking at all the beautiful costumes around her. She herself wore an intricate black and purple dress that made to have light bounce off the vestments giving her an otherworldly...

"This is awful. Everyone already knows each other and I have never met any of them." Constance complained with a great deal of worry in her eyes. Alistair for his part just looked confused as he looked around the room. His vision only allowed him to really see those with magical capabilities...

Contrary to others in the room, Constance was ecstatic to be here. Her beautiful purple dress with accents of gold starkly contrasted against her dark hair and blue eyes, all the colors of House Krixus. It was the nicest dress she had ever worn in her life, compliments of her guest. She had...

"Agreed, but I don't think we will have too many problems with the walls." He looked down the street with a grimace at many of the ruined houses. "We have plenty of the material...We just need to repurpose it...Still, housing comes first. Then we can worry about that." For so long, Elbion's...

"Thank you. I'm sure things will work out. Things just have a way of doing that most of the time." Jasper responded hopefully, more for himself than for Elias. "The next problem comes from our lack of outward defense, not inward. If someone tried to attack, there would not be much we could do...

"Hmm, I'm not sure. In their own way, the private guards can also serve as tools of order, but I recognize the inherent corruption that goes along with that...I will speak with the council, but I find myself preferring the latter, as it will give those who can not help with the building...

"Ha? No, they are basically useless at this point." Jasper said scornfully. Well, that wasn't entirely true. Some of the city guards still remained, but then a large majority had scattered and took up roles as privates guards for the family of the eleven. He found the whole situation annoying...

Economancy? He had heard of the magic before it was something his father had strongly suggested no one in the family from learning. He said that it made one lazy and appreciative of the value of gold. Of course, that could just have been his father being greedy. The idea of him or one of his...

Hmm, a noble heart grows fatigued? Interesting way to look at it. His father had always told him that anyone can work for money, and money is the world's power equalizer. In that sense, it was the noblest of tools, but his father had also had a way with words. The thought of his father made him...

"True, but I am not so blind to the ways of the world. A lot of good things have happened in this world driven by a man's desire for money." Of course, a lot of bad things have occurred driven by greed as well. "Either way, I still am looking to donate if the school needs it. Money sitting...

"I believe I can help with that. When I get the chance, I plan to visit the council and discuss the plans that we can hold in common." Jasper had meant to speak with them sooner, but he had not expected the chaos in the city and even in his own family to be as deep as it was. He did not even...

Jasper nodded in agreement before turning fully to look at Elias. "The council and the college have the power to do this together, but I need assurances that the college will not isolate itself." He was not foolish. The college had long looked to be as independent as possible from the city, and...
