Alexander gave a nod "Yes, I could certainly get that job done, though, on a side note, it is not going to be that easy, there will be many that we would have to interview." He noted "But while that is going on, we will also need to send word to the other groups about what is going on, so I will be sending a messenger ahead to explain the situation, for IF something were to happen to us," Alexander added He then went over to talk to some other people regarding what Woody had told him to discuss regarding the interview. "Of course Windphaser, with us working together, it would work out much better." He responded with a smile "Tough if i may note, reading their intentions via my powers might be possible to an extent, but it is going to require something, that their overall minds are calm at the time that i do it, emotions such as to much anger, sadness, happiness etc in their minds can cause disruptions in my ability to read their intentions with a clear result." Keidor mentioned

Alexander looked up at Woody "Of course, if you have a plan then let's hear it." He said as he stood up. "How come you are willing to help to such a degree though? Most would not want to be bothered with such an investigation matter, especially those who are not under our command, so why tough? I am curious." Alexander asked him as he scratched his chin, trying to understand why Woody was willing to undertake such a big task without anything in return. "Some may feel the weight, but others sometimes thrive on the actions of what we would often consider evil and wrong brother," Morikai replied "Trying to understand one's actions can be futile unless you can recognize those intentions within yourself as well. Just because someone would steal, murder anyone in cold blood doesn't make them evil by default, it is where the intentions lay that truly matters. So you would believe me if I would say that this supposed traitor might not even be necessarily evil, but have good intentions and performs them in a bad way?" Morikai asked Windphaser with a smile of his own.

"That is an impressive plan you brought up Woodland, but it won't be easy to carry out, we have around 300 people with us, and you will also need to keep in mind that there can be no guarantee that the traitor is specifically in this group, or for the fact that there might be multiple traitors. So if we are going to carry out this plan of yours, we need to be vigilant but also subtle, so I would advise you speak with Alexander, the light orange Rauken over there, he is an old veteran, even rumoured to have fight alongside Karthspire during the bitter years of the civil war upon Raukan a couple centuries ago. So if there is anybody who will be able to make this plan work, it will be him, tell him about the lockdown." Terisha told Woody "And while you are at it, ask him about his life story, a strange thing of me to ask of you, but it will help you understand his motives better because he has a strong loyalty towards our people. While you do that, I will organize the lockdown and give out orders to our more experienced soldiers." Meanwhile, Morikai looked at Windphaser with a smile, before staring a bit into the depths of the desert. "My magic might help, but perhaps not to the degree that you might be hoping for, I am capable of seeking out somebodies intentions by searching through their memories, but it is dangerous, because if I make one mistake, the person brain could cease to function, and that will cause instant death. So instead I could use my powers to feel the tremors of the surrounding areas in which we walk, for if anybody tries to make a suspicious, reaching for a weapon etc, I can react fast. Would that be sufficient enough to help out?" Morkai answered

"Oh yes, it is very understandable Woodland, and I agree, perhaps I was a bit too eager, trust takes time." Morikai agreed. He paused to look at Woody's eye with a hint of concern, but then stood up again. "Hopefully we will have enough time to build up that trust friend, I can't say for how long I will be able to stick around though, because I need to greet my mother after all at some point," Morikai mentioned. However before he could say anything further, Terisha came up sprinting towards them. "Guys! Something is wrong, we have been betrayed, there is a traitor among our ranks because when I sent out some scouts, they returned that 5 of our men had their throats slit, while 2 others who had been presumably with them at the time were no longer there... What's more, we have received no news of Karthspire, it is possible that the others might be in danger." Terisha said with urgency. "So I am debating on what would be our best course of action... Windphaser, what do you recommend, shall we stay and continue our objective or rush towards the others and make sure that we can back them up and regroup? Because I fear that the traitor was not a soldier, but instead a civilian that travelled with us, and you know what that means..." She added in with a sigh.

Terisha looked at Woody and looked at him with a smile. "My name is Terisha, I am in command of the soldiers that have joined us here, with Windphaser being a great help. Though I believe I have seen you walk around the city before, seeing as your friends where around it would only be inevitable that you would eventually show up right?" She said with a wink. But before she could say more Morikai walked up to Woody and grabbed his hand as he inspected it, looking at it with a strong sense of interest. "I have met many magic users, but you stand out quite much compared to the rest, your magic is like an unpredictable thunderstorm, but under potent control, that I can feel when I feel out your blood waves. So I can say that it is an impressive feed that you are able to keep it under control to such a degree." Morikai complimented "But regarding the introductions, I am Morikai, founder of the Chronicles group, and a long lost brother from your friend/mentor Windphaser over there. Now... I look at your eye, and I don't need to see anything that you already know in this regard, but... I would like to help you out. Hear me out.." "Do you want your eye restored? I cannot remove the dark powers that have encompassed the scar, however, I can recover your sight, granted that it is not simply a flick of magic... No.. It requires careful management and good inspection, but I can do that part for you." Morikai offered him. "So you are saying that you are going to use your powers to restore his eyes? I do hope you are aware of what could happen if these powers... come in contact with him?" Terisha asked with a tilted eyebrow. "You are quite an observant person I must say Terisha, but yes, you are right, However... His case is different, it has to do with his eye, or more specifically, those dark powers surrounding the blind eye..." "If I use my powers inside the eye itself, it should not affect him, since those dark powers form like a barrier, preventing any form of magic from altering or getting inside it," Morikai explained. "Ohh I see... And you, of course, know that your powers will work in this regard because it is *not magic*." She said with a smirk. "Exactly! A fact that tends to really seems to help me whenever I work on something." Morika replied with a growing smile. "Now... What do you say friend? Do you want your complete sight restored? I can promise you that I will be careful, it is not my first time restoring someone's sight. A student of mine can vouch for that." He asked as he let go of Woody's hand.

"Things can always change Windphaser, your friend must have been through a train of thoughts and emotions before changing his mind, you might want to head up to him. Don't want to keep him to keep him waiting eh?" Morikai reassured Windphaser with a friendly nudge. "And I am not going to lose you again." "Well... We could use this to our advantage, yes, technicly speaking, The Blood Cult itself is a natural faction, meaning it doesn't have true enemies or true friends. If we could get one of the clans to aid us? Then we would get a strong advantage." Terisha admitted to Windphaser. "But like I said before, your father has the aid worth of 2 clans at once, definitely bribed with slaves or something, so you might want to be mindful of that as well." Terisha reminded him.
