In the tall castle of Iveria, there lies two knights in silver and white wielding a sword, stationed near a door, preventing anyone from entering. Inside the door shows a room where battle planning is used. A large wooden table with its four corners carved into a shape of a eagle. On top of that is a map of a continent that holds three kingdoms, Iveria, Ruden, and Khaosin. There lies a man who stands in front of a fireplace that burns behind him, showing a flickering ambiance.
A door opens and three people come over. One man has silvery blue hair slicked back, wearing a white and blue noble jacket along with his white pants. His eyes are the color of an ocean at the peak of daytime. His name is Rhyzius Splendor.
Next person is a woman with long wavy red hair that extends to her shoulders, her eyes are the color of amethyst with a tinge of red. She wears a white buttoned shirt, a red vest, and a red jacket designed in golden engravings. She also wears white pants with red engravings on it. The clothes she wears are tight fitting which emphasizes her breasts, waist, and buttocks. Despite her model-like figure, she exudes a serious aura. Her name is Agatha Zolton.
Another person is a man with short brown hair where his bangs reaches his eyebrows. He wears a dark blue suit and a blue cloak with white engravings. His eyes are orange-brown. His name is Mikhail Strayne.
The door closes behind them and looked at the man in front of the fireplace.
"I see you have some assignments for us to do, correct?" Agatha said, brushing her hair back.
"Indeed, there is an individual that is causing havoc in Cales and Fynis. Majority of those acts are robbery." the man said.
"It's most likely petty thievery and should be left to local authorities in their respective cities. Why should any of us go to Cales to arrest him? Won't that undermine the local authorities by doing that?" Agatha said as she puts her right hand on the table and her left on her hip, displaying her beautifully painted red nails.
"This is no petty thievery. Jewelry stores, banks, and the factories are being robbed. Additionally, that criminal has been evading authorities ever since. This could cripple businesses if left unchecked. Also, remember that Iveria gave those assets to those cities while we're having salary inequality problem." the man said.
"This does pose a problem, sending gemstones to the cities, expecting profit only to find out they were stolen. This could hurt our economy in Qieras* if left unchecked." Mikhail said.
"I also have to mention that those who gave chase ended up injured or at worst incapacitated. Nonetheless, he is dangerous." the man said.
"I see..." Agatha said.
"Obviously, you won't go to these locations with just the three of you. Take the members to assist your search and capture him. Be sure to transport him to Iveria so that he won't escape." said the man.
"You are staying in Iveria?" Rhysius said.
"I have another person that I must meet, go on without me."
The three began walking the door one at a time until he is the only one left. Shortly later another person comes in the room. A woman in a white veil over her along with her white and gold priestess robe. The only parts of her body that is not hidden is her hands, her shoes, her long ivory green hair, and her mouth.
"So you've come." said the man. "Izanna Panzite."
"Good afternoon, Elric Achrome." Izanna said. "I see that you sent your aides to find the criminal."
"Not to mention, our economy hasn't been good lately. Iveria is rife with poverty and unrest has been apparent between the rich and poor. Also, crime was being apparent as well." Elric said, holding the bridge of his nose.
"I understand your frustrations, Elric. The devotees that were assigned to Grand Priest Palax are preoccupied at the moment and I cannot bring more of them as I'll spreading them too thin. Also, Grand Priest Palax has ventured to Lyse to help Geon." Izanna said.
"Though Geon may be crude, but he shows results when needed. He'll be back having the noble of Lyse contribute to help us remedy the problem."
"Regarding to the elusive thief, you're sending them to Cales, right? I will oversee Fynis."
"You clearly stated that your men are spread thin." Elric said, but then realized the real reason. Elric looked at Izanna as a mixture of red and blue aura emitting around her. Clashing, but never mixing to a color purple.
"You have...Alignment magic?!" Elric said in disbelief as Izanna obtained Alignment magic as one of the Lost Magic users. This magic allows to discern the target's 'alignment' that indicates their intents. If they are righteous, they're shown in blue, if malicious, red. White is neither.
"Correct, I have kept it for 10 years now. Finding a criminal is simple once I find him in any of these two cities." Izanna said.
"Are you concerned about other Lost Magic users coming for you?" Elric said, thinking that Lost Magic users are in more danger since they'll wind up attracting each other.
"No, but I will make sure I'll avoid conflict if possible." Izanna said and the aura around her faded and bowed to Elric slightly. "May the light guide you."
Izanna walks out the door to head to Fynis in order to find the criminal that may be running amok or hiding.
Meanwhile at the gates of Iveria, Agatha, Rhysius, and Mikhail are walking towards a large carriage colored in white with gold accents with a cage behind it to transport prisoners. The load is being towed by four white horses. Additionally, many more
"Once we reach the destination, we'll request assistance from the local authorities and split among the three of us. Then we'll close off any exits so none gets in nor out." Agatha said.
"Expect citizens becoming defiant since it's basically martial law. However, we cannot keep it for long." Rhysius said.
"Mind if I be of your assistance?" Izanna said. Agatha gasped from Izanna's sudden appearance as she is also in a carriage.
"Priestess Izanna! We thought you were heading back to Selris." Rhysius said, flustered since, they're expecting her to be heading back to Selris after meeting Elric.
"I was, but after hearing the criminal causing harm to the innocents, it's only right for us to stop him, is it not? Also, while you're entering Cales, I'll be heading to Fynis." Izanna said.
"I will also head to Fynis. Besides, I have more to discuss with her as we're travelling." Elric said, jumping on the carriage beside Izanna. For a short moment, an army of White Swans and Luster Orders came behind him with horses as well numbering to 200, but will be split among the two major groups. "I see we're prepared."
"May the light guide you all." Izanna said as she bowed. Elric then flicked the reins and the horses started walking. Mikhail did the same and began travelling as well. The mission to capture the criminal has begun.
