OoC @Kirke: We went into the catacombs, fought Joseph and Knight, Axel read the book of secrets and turned to ash, then Knight made the place collaps, forcing everyone to flee.
"Oh..." Terra simply said after blinking twice. "That's... a shame." Looks like I was wrong... at least about the book.

"No, thats stupid." Varger said.
Fenris bared his teeth.
"You honestly think tha-"
Fenris cut him off and he was silent for awhile.
"Face judgement? Who are you to decide that?" Varger demanded. "Nidhogg won't agree."
Fenris was persistent.
"Everyones done terrible things...I just..ignored it or couldn't think on it. It made sense."
Nidhogg just remained silent.
"So what just narrate every horrible thing I've done? Spill my guts. It'll damage me as much just reliving it all before whatever happens after."
Varger sighed.
"You're adamant on this? Fine I'll conisder it. It's on you however."
Fenris bared his teeth.

Jacques paced back and forth in the cool darkness of the cell, glaring at the iron bars that held him in and waiting for someone to come and tell him of any new developments. He was seething with rage at his comrades. That they would accuse him of witchcraft- even after what had happened- was unthinkable. He had fought with them for three years now, and showed his valour time and again. Some of them owed him their lives! They should have been more trusting of him now. Suddenly the clunk of a heavy lock being opened snapped him out of his ruminations, and he hurried to the bars to see who was coming. A moment later, Baptiste stood on the other side, watching him with hooded eyes. His helm was in the crook of his arm and beneath it, he shared Jacques?s green eyes and long brown hair. Jacques grinned and reached out through the bars.
?Baptiste! What news?? The other knight stepped back out of reach, and Jacques?s heart sank.
?The Bishop agrees with the charge of witchcraft. He has decreed that you are to be executed by burning at the stake.? Baptiste told him in a low, angry voice.
?What? Baptiste, this is madness! You know that I am as loyal a servant of God as any man here! Even more so than many!? He said quickly and desperately. ?Appeal to the Bishop! Tell him that verdict was made in haste!?
?Was it? I?ve heard you question the Lord?s plan often enough in the past. How do I know that you didn?t disagree with his plans for you? How do I know that you didn?t search for another master in your dying moments, that you didn?t make a pact with His enemy??
?For Christ?s sake Baptiste, I?m your brother! Listen to what you?re saying!?
DO NOT TAKE HIS NAME IN VAIN!? Baptiste roared suddenly, glaring through the bars. He kept his gaze fixed on Jacques for a long time, his face red and a vein throbbing in his forehead. After a while, he calmed down somewhat.
?I don?t know what to think, Jacques. You should be dead, and you are not. That?s all I know.? He lowered his head, then turned to leave.
?I am not wise enough to decide your fate. Only God has that right.? Before Jacques could appeal to him again he stomped off. As he did so there was a quiet sound, like the clink of metal on stone. Jacques bowed his head, alone again, but then glanced up again as he caught sight of something from the corner of his eye. Where Baptiste had been standing, on the flagstones just outside the bars, was a small iron key.
OOC: @Nailik No, you're right, there weren't.

As the sun rose higher, Jacques was roused from his memories, and twisted around to look down the main street in the direction that he would have to go to get back to the ship. Grimacing, he remembered Scout's demand for an explanation as to how he had survived the rock fall last night.
"Well, it'll have to be done eventually." He said to himself. "Damn that Knight." Hoping down off the roof of the bus, he set off on foot back towards the ships.

"Well that's...understandable...I guess..." Jean said, looking down at the ground and away from Terra as well.
"But...you don't really know anyone enough...I mean...I guess..." Jean said to Terra. She then greeted Kanji and told him what she had told the others.
