Echo was still shaking and looking nervously at the general.
Tao continued to sleep despite what was happening around her, snoring a bit.

Ness gives a little sigh of relief as Tiberius' spells stop. "You're quite... scary, General. My heart felt like it was beating in my head..."
Turning back to Jessica, she nods slightly. "If you wish, I'll show you something from my universe as well. I'd consider it analogous to your spell-stones. [small] It may end up raising flags as well, so we should exchange information somewhere a bit private. [/small]"

Dal'sheed had to breathe deeply a lot to cool his heart rate down so that he could speak without anxiety.
"Well, that explains some of the situation and the tension. But why does the technology explode? And why would it explode in the hands of people from a specific nation?"
"Well, that explains some of the situation and the tension. But why does the technology explode? And why would it explode in the hands of people from a specific nation?"
"Fair enough then. Seems a strange setup, technology wise, since I was never aware anything would cause a certain tech type to explode. Can't fault you for the design of that trap though. So, what is going on? Because I was serious when I spoke of the great hunt. This wouldn't have happened unless we were needed here." her hand moves away from the skull.
"The Nine Realms?" You couldn't posibly comprehend the concept, even if I did explain. "Simply put, it is where I am from. Since you never heard of the Nine Realms, I assume that this one is not connected to them. So, this realm, or rather, this unconnected world. What is it called?" Loki asked the secretary, then paused. "And on an unrelated note, but one that intrigues me regardless. What are you? Evidently, human, you are not."
"Cursed? So this cursed technology... is that one? The loud noise making?" She gestured to the gun, not trusting it after her first experience with it. "But the kingdoms of Xiphatias and Legaia, I've never heard of such places."
Well, good thing I didn't give him MY pistols. They are DNA ID locked like every Warden and Vanguard in the field. But then again, that raises the question, why weren't hers? Unless she is still a recruit and had completed her Awakening then.... [sub][sub]We are in danger.[/sub][/sub]
"You were well within your right to use tactics like such." Noel simply said, giving no trance of her thoughts.
"Thanks." Jackass Beatrice mumbled, tucking her pistol away.

Jessica tried to breath easily once the display of fire and ice was over, but had to brace herself on her knees and breath deeply a few times. Her tail, which until now had been concealed in her coat, unfurled itself and began to occasionally wag in annoyance. "Impressive...though that was...I think it may...have been a bit much." She said, pausing to breath every few words. Cursed technology that explodes when magic touches it? This certainly begs looking into.
Standing back up at her usual posture, she got her breathing under control before speaking to Ness again. "Oh! That sounds quite interesting. I look forward to the time when we can get a moment to exchange information."
She looked over at Lyra curiously. Great Hunt? Maybe she knows something about the Anomaly. I'll have to try and speak with her about it.
You alright?
I'm fine! Jessica thought as she dismissed the glyphs once again.

"I do apologize for the deception, but you must understand that I still couldn't rule out the possibility that you were spies. As the defender of my nation's border here, I must be diligent. I do hope you can understand and forgive me." Tiberius explained.
Hearin Dal'Sheen, he explained."An wise question, but difficult to answer. None in Xiphatian or Legaia truly knows why, I believe. Testing it proves rather... deadly. Our best guess is that some sort of energy surrounds the technology making it incompatible with the magic that permeates from the bodies of the mages of Xiphatia. Even being in the presence of a mage for extended periods of time can leave the device inert. Beyond that, I know little else. I'm sorry that I can't help you with understanding that."

"Yes. Should a mage such as myself try to use it, it would explode and deal a considerable amount of damage to the surrounding area. I think you can understand why we view it as cursed." Savranth explained.
"Those are the nations of this world, Sasha. I can't really explain much else. Where are you from?"
[hr]
"I have truly never heard of them, sir. And I am a beastkin. There are many of us in this world. Though... We aren't always accepted. I'm one of the few Beastkin in the Xiphatian military. General Tiberius was quite kind to let me serve. Though... I understand some of the men think he... Well, let's just say I hear his wife died nearly 20 years ago..."

You're part cat, Jessica? " Dimensional Anomaly...? I'll ask more about that later, I doubt she'd want to talk about that in the open. Ness puts her hand to her chin again as she takes out her PDA and starts scrolling through the overlays again. That gun I scanned earlier... I might be able to run more tests by digistructing it... Where is-- God, I've got to clean my storage out again soon...
"You are forgiven, and I must commend your loyalty to the state." Noel simply said as "Beatrice" gripped her head, as if having a headache.
Loki would have began being irritated again upon hearing the secretary had yet to answer his question as to what the world was called, were it not for the fact that some of the other information proved to be rather interesting. "Hmm. I see... These beastkin. Why is it they are not accepted? And what is this about the General's wife?" he asked, eager to hear more about both subjects.
I guess I'll just have to roll with this thing to the very end. Despite the lack of information.
"It at least explains some portion of the situation. So that does help, thank you. S-so then if Legaia produces the cursed weaponry, how long has this nation been producing such equipment? Has it been that way since the wars started hundreds of years ago? I heard from your son that there were many wars over the course of centuries."

Lyra watched the general ignore her for the most part, seeming to not care what she said. She sighed and headed into the mess hall, grabbing some food and eating. Bored, she began tapping at her bracer, pulling up a holographic display and running through some graphs.
Sasha held her utensil for a moment, bringing her other hand to the back of her neck, her head still covered by the hood. "If you please, I would like a different topic..." She said softly, her sleeve from her arm looked like it had seen better days, although not ripped, was definitely well worn.
"Yeah, I suppose sometimes you have to be a little drastic when it comes to defending your home." Jessica offhandedly replied to Tiberius. "So, you wouldn't happen to know about the Dimensional Anomaly affecting this place, would you?" She asked the man. "Because if not, I believe I could shed some light on some things regarding why all these people are here." She added, saying it somewhat loudly so as to possibly attract the attention of the other who were nearby.
Jessica furrowed her brow a little at what Ness had said. "I, and the rest of my kind, prefer to be referred to as Feline, if you don't mind."
Hearing someone shuffling about, Jessica turned and noticed Echo. She curiously sniffed at the air in the girl's direction a few times before twisting her face into a look of disgust. "Ugh. What is that? It smells like a curse, almost."

Echo looked at Jessica and rubbed her arm selfconsciously.
Tao continued to snore loudly as she slept in the mess hall.
