She smiles.

" he will slip up soon enough.... And we will take advantage of this."

She pats your shoulder softly." So thi tiger... Who is he... How do you know him."

[Armoured Priest]

He was kind of surprise she didn't say anything about the meeting, but he went to answer her question. "Johten? I meet him when I stumbled in the mixed varhgen tribe." he explained. "And I have yet to figure out why he has been so friendly to me ever since, I didn't exactly give a nice first impression at the time." he shrugged as he thought back to the encounter. "Really want a vial of him, yes mom?" he asked with a smile. He looked to the vial in her hand. "Why you take a sample of yourself?" he added, a confused look on his reptilian face.

[Thugren]

She smiles.

" his genome is incredibly rare thaes..... I want you to study him and watch him...I want that power at our disposal since jessica escaped and that damnable Abel cured her

[Armoured Priest]

"Ah, so that's who got her out." he said after hearing the tid bit of information. "He definetly seems like he got a lot better with it, not like when when I last saw him, randomly shocking me." He said with a bit a an annoyed tone at the end, feeling a random phantom muscle twitch. "Or his brother, but that was entertaining." he added with a smirk. "Shouldn't be too hard to get samples, he gets hurt enough and I was usually the one who patched him back up." he said as he checked the rig once more before looking toward Nocturne with a curious innocent expression as he pointed with a talon to the vial of her blood in her hand.

[Thugren]

She smile and flicks your nose.

" do not be so curious thaes... It is not becoming... It is a gift. Use it when things get bad."

A soft rap at the door can be heard and johten is let inside.

" come herr thaes..... I grow weary of all this metal."

Noctournes eyes glimmer.

" severe lack of tact .... Definitely a varghen... But so large.. Interesting."

[Armoured Priest]

He rubs the end of his snout with a bit of a shame look before straigtening up and looking toward Johten. "I'll be there soon, just let me get one more thing please?" he asked him as he put on the rig over his uniform and putting the vial of nocturne's blood into the storage unit on his thigh with the sample of Augustus. Thaes put the mask, an almost cage looking thing with the series of tubes and metal reinforecments, that was attached to the rig in a pouch for now since it was not needed. He walked over to a shelf that covered the entire wall, several vials of different colored fluids, some glowing, some darker than the abyss. But he picked up something that looked like it did not belong, a large cylinder device of metal with an interface on the side. He put it in a pouch before he looked back to them. "I guess we go now?" he asked aloud, both eager to go and anxious to leave Nocturne alone.

[Thugren]

joten nods

"Jarvan will be waiting for us at the docks...Come thaes."

Johten turns as noctourne waves and you are lead outside.


The apc is quiet and you can see the pack of ghouls standing beside it, inside the archivist sits, a smile cresting her lips.

"ready to go lizard man?"

[Armoured Priest]

Thaes couldn't help but look confused. "You'er going with us?" he asked her as he shifted his tail to take a seat in the APC, rather suprised that he was. He kept a claw on the pouch with the cylinder device, the first time it has ever been out of the facility and always had a more paranoid apporach to protecting things.

[Thugren]

She nods.

" an order from my master.... He made things clear for me."

Johten sits and cracks his spine.

" I cannot wait to be home."

He grumbles as his PDA rings.

" jar can will not shut up."

[Armoured Priest]

"Probably because he wants to go home just as much as you do." he said looking up to johten with a hissing chuckle at his annoyance. He looked back to the archivists. "Hm, not sure if I should be confuse more, or just paranoid." he said as relaxed into the seat now. "Well, since you'er going with us, can I ask what your name is?." he asked her.

[Thugren]

Johten simply grunts as the archivist smiles.

" kiani.....you can call me that..."


Time skip?

[Armoured Priest]

"Well Kiani, despite why you might be going with us, hope you at least find the trip.....somewhat pleaseant." he said with an uncertain shrug, trying to be realistic of his prediction with everything considered. He looked to Johten. "You know you would be pestering him if you were at the docks and he was here." he reasoned to him. "At least it's not the damn ursa." he hissed under his breath as he brought his knees to his chest and wrapped his pale tail around himself to take a nap, not sure how long the trip will be or if johten would actually let him sleep.

Spoiler

if you want, I don't mind either way.

[Thugren]

The trip is vicious. It takes almost a month on the tumultuous seas before you can see the land again.

The entire trip was rough, the roiling waters making johten a miserable companion, but as the ship docks kiani knocks on your door.

" come thaes ..... The large one stands with another .... The other interests me... I was sent to fetch you."

She hisses as the blistering island hear sweeps Ito your small room

[Armoured Priest]

He sat on the bed of his room, even more curled up than when he tried to nap on the apc, his arms wrapped around his empty stomach. He looked at her from resting his head on his knees. "Ok, I'll be there soon Kiani, thank you." he said quietly. Althought it was hard to tell from the red of his eyes, they were bloodshot from very little sleep. While johten was more open about his discomfort on the sea, Thaes remained quiet about his as he stretched his limbs and stood up ungainly, having no sea legs what so ever.

[Thugren]

The sea pitches the ship a bit underneath your feet but levels out quickly .

Outside the port side you see the archivist slither down the ramp as the Vicks holding the pack is lowered from the storage deck

[Armoured Priest]

With the boat not rocking as bad as it was before, Thaes was able to move easier on the boat. "A month we been on the seas, I need to check on them before I do anything else, and before the workers decide to open it." he said to himself looking at the vehical being lowered down as he walked down the ramp.

[Thugren]

The box is being lowered but you can see a figure besides johten that captures your attention.

The figure considers you behind an ornate Ghoulbone mask and nods.


" welcome home thaes.."

He whispers quietly.

" it's been far too long."

[Armoured Priest]

"I doubt it's been that long Jarven." he said with a tired smirk as he leaned on a railing, still feeling sickish even now off the boat. "What have you been doing while I was gone?" he asked him. He looked back to the container before looking back to him. "I doubt you want anyone near that box right now." he added the warning.

[Thugren]

Jarvan looks at the box then to you.

"is there something in the box that we should know about?

[Armoured Priest]

"Um......about six modified specimens of 'do not be near when hungry.'" he told Jarven, hoping that would sink in fast. "So yea....there wouldn't happen to be a meat locker anywhere near here?" he asked now.
