[ Since the Dark Ones had learned of Aria's existence in this world, the two blades often found themselves fighting tooth and nail to get by. Leroy was still out there somewhere, and the two swords were determined to find him.

It was a struggle sometimes, but if nothing else it brought them closer.

Today had been harder than most. They'd been taken by surprised by a hoard of lower level Dark Ones. The numbers had been nearly overwhelming, but when the dust cleared, their leader, a high ranking Dark One, had made himself known. The opportunity was too good, he'd said. He reveled in the chance to destroy the last of the Ragnarok Series, and take this new blade, and her power, for his own.

Exhausted though they were, they somehow managed to gain the upper hand, and win.

It left Ragnarok exhausted, though, and unable to leave his blade. Aria would have to carry him again. ]

[ For spending so much of her time as a sword, Aria had never really lost her awareness of her surroundings. Sometimes, she wished she had. There were only so many screams and gurgles she could listen to, before she'd find herself wishing that she could shut herself away from all of it, not feel, like so many swords seemed to be able to do.

But festivals... markets, people laughing, and no stench of death permeating the air... if she'd closed herself off completely, she would have missed out on seeing just what humans could bring about when they were happy.

Sakon himself is an excellent example of 'happy' and 'fun', and well after they've thrown themselves at this particular festival (at least every food stand visited diligently), Aria finally takes a moment to rest.

... No, that's a lie, that's what sane people who spent over an hour running around the area would have done. But she can hear something that sounds a bit like a flute, and drums, and maybe she'd wandered away from her companion to get a bit closer to the noise. ]


I don't see how anyone can sit at all during something like this... [ it's half to herself, even as she smiles, expression warming. The atmosphere is so bright. ]
