Anik did memorize the turns they would take while walking into their prison cells, to know where she had to run, if she had to escape. After feeling the whole room she was placed in, to get an idea how it looked, not daring to make her clicking thing at this point of time, she laid herself into the bed as well, thinking about how she could get the whole group to kill every heartless creature they saw on sight. She also hoped she could talk herself out of the prison, even though she doubted it, already preparing her concentration on the incoming escape, where she would need all her agility and new gained strength.
Speedy kept saying "I'm sorry!" to Robin, until he would most likely tell him to shut up.
What had Query done over the day?
He was hidden. He hid, and found a place where nobody would look, and silently cast Prying Eyes. He created eighteen semitangible, visible magical orbs (called ?eyes?). These eyes move out, scout around, and return as you direct them when casting the spell. Each eye can see 120 feet (normal vision only) in all directions, as he had them float out, to search around for anything related to magic, and to keep an eye on it. It gave them directions on what to do-

[color=scarlet]"In ten minutes, Look for people with knowledge about magic, and books containing magic information. Do not be seen. Return here in twelve hours."[/color]
it said.
It left it's hiding spot, and, in ten minutes time, walked to the bathhouse... To see the group get arrested.
Code:
[color=scarlet]"Query: Why are they being arrested?"[/color]
EMily stood up.
"To start, none of us are from this world. All of us have been brought here through portals of some kind. We piled ourselves together because we knew no one here and we knew that we all didn't come from here. Everything in this world is alien to us. Our curiosity was peaked when we saw the sun turn dark and fall onto Calibeth."
"We met it... Him twice. The first time came to blows, and that was our fault, but no one was hurt. The second time some of us tried being cordial and some of us were aggressive, which made him flee. The one who initiated hostilities, both times, is no longer part of our group."
EMily delivered a semi-displeased,
"Fine."
She cleared her throat.
"We were in a forest. And while in it, Ultron and Yeager appear. Ultron also has 5 or so drones or puppets that he controls and speaks through. Sally is the aforementioned member that Robin is referring to. Sally, who is not here with us, has a disposition towards metal beings such as Ultron and his drones. I did not know about this at the time of our first encounter with Ultron. In any case, before anyone could react, Sally shoots one of the drones with her gun. That's when Robin and I stepped in and moved Sally aside. Ultron was primarily curious about the core conflicts that exist on this world as well as their technological capabilities. He then asked for a map. To which I then directed him towards Magic Eye."
"That is I."
"Magic Eye here is a cartographer. He's mapped everywhere we've been. I showed him the map of the desert, the swamp, the forest, Palladein, Calibeth, the ocean, and the place where we all started, Kaisir."
She sighed.
"After that, I asked how he came here. He replied that he came through a portal. After that he left. That was our first encounter."
"After we had left the forest, the sun had died and fell towards Calibeth, so we marched our way over there to find out what happened. It was there that we found the orb in a cave as well as finding Ultron again, speaking through one of his drones once more. Sally had pointed her guns at Ultron but did not fire. He explained to us that he also came here on a mission of understanding why the sun had fallen. We explained to him that the sky metal seemed to react to some of us holding it and wished to hold it himself. Robin held onto the orb, but was reluctant to hand it over, presumably because he was unsure of handing it over to a machine. Ultron left after that. We haven't seen him since, and that was about a day ago."
OOC: What's the name of the place where we started?
"Thank you. Now, what about this business with Yeager?" the guard then asked. "And after that, you can fill me in on everything you know about the sun, and this ball of sky-metal."
"Anik can fill you in more on Yeager. But from what I can tell soon after we left Palladein, Anik had found out about Yeager's selling of weaponry and catches up with us as we were leaving the city. Shara, who is not with us, not liking the idea that the country would be gaining more military strength through Yeager's sales, wants to go after Yeager back in Palladein. Anik comes with Shara as an escort to try and find Yeager. Anik fended off guards while Shara fought Yeager. Yeager escapes soon after."
"When we next met him in the forest, Yeager only came off as a witty character. He didn't really have that much to say."

OoC: @EMily: [color=0066cc]"You gave them my name? Why?!"[/color]
Yeager headed to the market, looking for the fanciest of winter coats. The heat of the desert didn't bother him, but the cold was starting to annoy him.
"This was the case. After I told her about Yeager, Shara ran back into the city. I did follow her, to prevent her from dying. I could not just leave her.
That's also why I did not fight Yeager himself. I did not want to kill him, but I also could not let her die while doing something stupid, like fighting him. I think she was very hostile to the Calibetheans, and did not want them to get better weapons, to start conquering other lands." Anik said with a tense tone in her voice.
Speedy, however, upon hearing Yeager, squeaked angrily: "Yeager is a very bad man! He wanted to kill me just for talking! Also, I heard Yeager and Ultron talk about giving very massive, powerful, weapons, to both sides of a war, to create something like an eternal war, that no land could rule over another! It sounded very scary, I don't know why they would do something like that!"
He was not sure if he remembered all of it correctly. But it probably did not matter.
The balls made note of this, and eight of the sixteen sought a way to get in there, while the other 8 scattered in 8 different directions to see if they could find any information.
Query would follow the officers as they took them into the prison. Query would inquire about why they were under arrest, and offer assistance, and, if they didn't offer anything to do, leave the location to gather as much information about the sun and the gods as he possibly could.
Query would not be allowed into the northern ward, and thus, would not be able to follow the group into the prison.

Query's orbs would be able to get into the building fairly easily, with it having open windows.

Upon hearing Anik and EMily's explanation of events, the guard buried his face in the palm of his free hand. "For future reference, if you want to kill someone to stop a country trying to conquer another country, kill the person who actually gets to decide whether the country goes to war, not some sword salesman. And, make sure there's actually going to be a war if you don't kill them." he said. He then sighed and said, "Since neither of the people who actually committed the crimes are here, you're free to go. But I have some more questions, so don't run off just yet."
He then gave a signal to the other guards, who unlocked and opened the cell doors.

Yeager wouldn't be able to find any winter coats that would seem fancy, though all of them were made out of various types of animal furs which might increase the fanciness from his perspective.
Seeing the various books, Timea hummed to herself, and looked over the titles of the books on the upper shelf, looking to see if there was anything on the old gods, specifically related to travel. While doing so, she had check for the same thing, but on the lower shelves.

Vala - Day 1 - 15:02
Ultron spend roughly three and a half hours watching the blacksmiths work on building Yeager's weapons, paying attention to the work going into them, while wondering why none seemed blastia-powered. After, it grew bored and left the city again to practice with its own blastia weapon, beginning with shots in both its rifle and pilebunker form, then trying a few melee moves with its sword and shield form.
With a net time of five hours passed, Ultron looked at its clock, figuring enough time had passed to check if it could meet command yet. Entering the city, Ultron moved to a guard guarding the entrance to the northern ward, and asked,
Code:
"Hi. I've requested a meeting with the person and/or people in charge here. Can I see them, yet?"
