Cast of Characters:	Sarracenia, 6386, 6936, Tomoe

---

Sarracenia has posed:
     Ever since the events in the testing facility in Lilian Rook's world, Sarracenia has been trying to regain some of the pride and self-respect that was damaged there. That, along with simply her own 'secret' fondness for fighting led her to challenge Note to a fight in the Shrine!

     The princess is spending her time before the battle starts with a little warm-up. She is currently elegantly dancing in ballroom style while swinging her hammer, her battle dress and long reddish-blonde hair flowing and billowing with her movements. She has a slight smirk of concentration on her face, apparently expecting a good fight with Note.

     The arena she has chosen is an open grassland bordered by rocky cliffs and dotted with plenty of large boulders. For some reason it just felt like the proper place to have such a sure to be very destructive fight.

Note (6386) has posed:
    A gate rises from the ground into this arena, and Note comes flying out of it in the middle of a tightly-curled-up somersault. She spins through the air for a good ten feet before straightening out and landing in a deep stance for balance and traction... and only then does she look around at the surroundings.

    "Huh..... it can't be this big! They're doing some weird magic here. But it's cool, however it works!"

    The Saiyan-blooded female is garbed in her usual red-and-yellow attire, now augmented with the efforts of the Alchemiter. It won't tear nearly as easily now!

    Cheerily, the youth aims an energetic wave over at Sarracenia... and then drops back into her combat stance, fingers extending into open knife-hands. "Come to think of it, I don't think I've seen you fight much. This'll be interesting! Thanks for the challenge!"

Sarracenia has posed:
     Sarracenia blinks at the sudden gate, then turns to face Note. "When did you gain the ability to conjure gateways?" she asks, then shrugs and smirks. "The Shrine is a magical place, it is true. It has to be in order to survive the fights that take place within. The fields can be customized to a great extent, and as far as I have seen no injuries remain once a match is concluded. It is easy to overexert oneself and be left exhausted after, though." the princess explains.

     Note moves to that ready stance and Sarra gives her hammer a twirl around herself before taking up a stance of her own, her hammer held out in front of her in what looks more like a sword stance than a hammer stance. "I am ready whenever you are. And despite what that ridiculous magical orb said, I am sure you will find me to be quite a challenge."

Note (6386) has posed:
    "HUh?" Note glances behind her, as the gate is receding back into the grass. She blinks a few times. "Oh, that's how entering these things works... huh." Seems she's just as surprised at that!

    Whiehver the case, she focuses back on Sarracenia quickly, eyes locked on that hammer... and grins at Sarracenia's boast.

    The very next instant, she begins a long, drawn out kiai, clenching those hands into fists. And the ground... begins... TO SHAKE.

    More than just that, white energy gathers in a storm about her, coaelces into a thin film of glowing light from her skin and then ignites into a mixture of light and wind. The grass is stripped from the ground, torn up in chunks that rise slowly and are flung every which way after reaching over a few feet into the air. Dust and dirt explode outwards...

    And from the cloud, Note's tiny body rockets straight at Sarracenia, aiming for a simple elbow blow to the gut!

Sarracenia has posed:
     Sarracenia watches with wide eyes as Note powers up...and they widen even more when Note suddenly rockets toward her! Sarra barely has a chance to move, and the blow lands solidly on Sarra's perhaps surprisingly solid core. She isn't a princess who just sits around in a castle all day!

     Still, the hit does knock the wind out of Sarra for a moment, but after a stumble back she uses her hammer as a counterweight and shifts the momentum of Note's hit into a swing of her own. That heavy hammer comes swinging back toward Note at a blinding speed, and whether the first hit connects or not Sarracenia continues forward in a spinning pirouette, aiming a few more blows at Note's side, legs, and head!

Cordelay Levail (6936) has posed:
"Ah, that spinning maneuver. If that lands the young girl is going to be in trouble." Cordelay muses before looking to Tomoe. "You were both at the strategy meeting for the spirit war, weren't you? I don't think I properly introduced myself. Cordelay Levail, it's a pleasure." She turns back to watching the match, smiling softly as the action unfolds.

Note (6386) has posed:
    At first, Note's wondering if she overdid it. Sarracenia DID NOT do too well at the physical showing of the obstacle course, while Note sort of... destroyed it. Almost literally, at points. When she lands after the blow, once again in her fighting stance, she just watches. "Uhhhh---"

    Note has absolutely no trouble matching Sarracenia's display of pure speed. Her arms come up, glowing faintly with white energy for a counter-strike against the hammer's flat! The intent is clear - just KNOCK HER BACK.

    The outcome, though, isn't nearly what Note expected. A thunderous noise marks the impact of arm on hammer, and Note's KNOCKED BACK several feet, wringing her arm out. In moments she's set upon by the hammer again and again, forced to try and deflect the strikes while backing up... just unable to keep real FOOTING.

    FINALLY a solid hit lands, sending her flying... and hitting the ground hard enough to dig a ten foot trench of DIRT.

    "Nghufwh..." Note splutters, spits out dirt, and flips to her feet. "Ow ow ow... how's she hitting so hard...?!"

    "How are you swinging it THAT HARD?!" It doesn't make SENSE... and now Note's wary. There's some fear in her eyes.

    But then... her brow furrows. Determination takes over. She leans forward and TAKES OFF AGAIN, upping her speed to come in between the swings and try to catch Sarracenia into a rapid flurry of knifehand strikes and pummeling knees and kicks to the gut!

Tomoe has posed:
Tomoe says "Both are pretty good at fighting though I have some experience with notes people, they tend to be very good fighters." She notes for a moment and nods to Cordelay for a moment.

"I go by Tomoe or sometimes Tomoe the Iron Lily in the Multiverse, good to meet you as well. Pretty new to the multiverse I take it. Also, don't count the Princess out either she's pretty handy with explosives and enchanted items from her world."

Cordelay Levail (6936) has posed:
Cordelay nods. "I'm aware, I've faced Her Highness before. She's quite formidable." She smiles brightly at Tomoe and extends a hand to her. "Glad to meet you, Miss Tomoe."

Sarracenia has posed:
     Sarracenia really does seem to have little in either knowledge or natural talent when it comes to actually taking a hit. She seems to depend entirely on her dancing strikes to keep the enemy at bay while her hammer smashes them. Sometimes it works...and sometimes it doesn't. Sarra's belly is nailed once again. After the first few hits she manages to bring her hammer around in front of her and uses the ridiculously solid head to at least dull the attacks somewhat.

     She is left panting after all those hits to her gut. "Nnng..." She stumbles to a knee, using the haft of her hammer to support herself. "I cannot take all the credit." she says, her pained expression turning to more of a smirk. "There is a reason this hammer is one of very few that are feared throughout Pipeland. And this one has been enchanted especially for me." she says, then...leaps back.

     Rather than another hammer strike, Sarracenia reaches into her satchel and pulls out...a cute little Bob-omb! It's a solid black metal sphere with big cute black eyes, cute cartoonish yellow boots, and a white raised area on top of its head. Which Sarra pushes down before throwing it at Note. "Catch!"

     Whether Note actually catches it or not, upon contact the seemingly living bomb disappears in a small but violent explosion!

Tomoe has posed:
Tomoe says "I didn't know." She'll take Cordelay's hand and shakes it.

"It's good to meet new people, strangers giving a damn is why I'm alive here and talking to you right now. Though I think my arrival here was a bit stranger than most people experiance."

Note (6386) has posed:
    "Oh... magic. Does that mean you'll be in trouble if you got disarmed? We'll have to work on that, Sarracenia!" Note's actually mystified by the way that Sarra can pull out things BIGGER THAN THE SACHEL, and this keeps her staring a bit longer than is healthy. When the Bob-Omb starts blinking red though... the fuse going even more frantically -- "AH!"

    Note raises a hand and fires a quick Ki blast at the projectile... a bit too late.

    KABOOOOOM!

    The ground's cratered, Note's engulfed in smoke and debris... and starts coughing badly.

    "O... kay... I think that's enough time spent... warming up... no more taking it easy!"

    After another deep breath... the ground starts rumbling again. SO MUCH WORSE. A crack-whoosh of agitated Ki clears the smoke and dust, blowing it clear away in every direction to show a somewhat scorched and black-smudged Note standing in the crater, fists clenched at her side and oh... once again, she's screaming in a long, protracted kiai.

    "Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-----"

    The air heats up ever so slightly and seems to sizzle with energy, a new wind kicking into gear. The girl standing at the center of this display's hair drifts upwards and shimmers with light as she fixes VERY enthusiastic eyes on Sarracenia. Eyes that slowly shift from black to a light green...

    "--YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!"

    All at once the golden power explodes from the ground at Note's feet, engulfing her in a mad blaze of swirling energy that far eclipses the little burst of earlier. This aura's sustained, billowing like a bonfire stoked by a wind all its own. And within that stands Note, seemingly largely unchanged... except for her hair. No longer black and smooth, the ponytail's split into an array of spikey locks floating almost horizontally behind her, and the hair on her head's no different - the shorter strands have all bunched up into upraised spikes in a pattern Sarracenia's now seen a few times...

    But this is the first time it's aimed straight at her.

    "My turn!"

    Note brings both hands forwards, palms stretched at Sarracenia, and...

    FWOOOOOOOSH!

    Very soon, the princess's vision will be filled with an onrush of blue-white energy coming STRAIGHT AT HER. A giant wall of pure brilliant Ki sent from Note's hands.

Sarracenia has posed:
     Sarracenia is once again wide-eyed at the display that Note puts on while powering up. And that hair! It suits Note much more than the black in Sarra's opinion. She is actually about to compliment Note when Note declares it is her turn and...fires a rather impressive beam of energy!

     Sarra has a bit of time to react, and when she does it is with her hammer. She twirls twice, then brings her hammer around with obvious force. There is low pitch WHOOSH as it swings through the air, then a shockwave explodes outward as it impacts the front of that beam. Sarracenia grunts and is quickly pushed backward, but she remains unharmed so far as her heavy DK Hammer clashes with the power of that beam. "Nnnnnnnnng!!"

     Sarracenia starts out with a long, drawn out grunt as she pushes against that beam even while getting pushed back. Her grunt becomes a growl and finally a scream as she puts all her effort into the strike...and the beam deflects! In a nice parabolic arc right back at Note! "This is yours!!" Sarracenia exclaims loudly as she keeps her hammer in place, deflecting the remainder of that beam and emerging miraculously unscathed. Even she seems surprised! And very smug about it!

Cordelay Levail (6936) has posed:
The way Sarracenia deflects the beam causes surprise to spread across Cordelay's face. "Watching these two is incredible. I knew Her Highness was strong, but her opponent wields incredible power as well." She has an expression of wonder as her gaze is fixed firmly on the fight. "I need to improve myself further to keep up with them."

Tomoe has posed:
Tomoe watches the fight fo on and nods a little bit. "The thing that might be of intrest? Note is no where near the apex of her people's poential." She pauses opening a strnge menu which hover before her and pulls out a two bags of popcorn from it, handing one to Cordelay.

"Given all the god things running about? I know that feeling."

Note (6386) has posed:
    That hammer! "I knew she was going to do SOMETHING with that thing..." Note mutters to herself upon feeling out Sarracenia's movements. She can't SEE them, because her own energy blast is in the way. But she can feel them in her mind...

    And they are mighty.

    Note releases the beam and deepens her stance, feeling the danger of those movements... "...S-SERIOUSLY?!" How is that even possible?! Note briefly panics, flails her arms... and then braces them in the way of the compressed beam, now deformed into something more like a big ball of redirected energy. It tears up the ground in front of her the moment it hits, and the power it contains steadily pushes Note back along the ground. She just can't seem to get her footing for a good ten seconds!

    Until, with arms trembling from the strain, she howls with effort and FLINGS the collection of power back and over her head, quite the worse for the wear.

    Of course, that big blob of redirected energy flies off into the distance and smacks one of the distant rocky cliffs. it might well be a mile away, but...

    ... But with a thunderous roar, the explosion of that blast tearing into the mountainside carves a gigantic hole through it and triggers a landslide. It would suck to be ANYWHERE NEAR that part of the battlefield right now. If a TOWN was near there... it would have been buried. An enormous dust cloud rises in the distance from the countless tons of dislodged rock smacking into the ground.

    As that's going on, Note hisses in pain. Her hands are scorched from that and she's a bit wobbly from exhaustion. She's never been put on the spot like that before. "Wow... I didn't think she could do that!"

    A few deep breaths later though, Note steels her will. Her stance shifts, fingers curling towards her palms but still open. If she had claws, that would be a nasty arrangement indeed.

    "Guess raw power's not gonna do it. Good thing that was never my specialty to begin with!" ... WHAT?

    Note leans forward in a dash and.. and her form wavers strangely. Then, what would look to be her - charging straight at Sarracenia - splits into TEN different Notes spread out horizontally. At first, they're moving in unison... all until they get about twenty feet away, then they all appear to be RUNNING AROUND SARRACENIA in a circle. All this motion's kicking up a furious wind of course...

    "You're pretty tough with that thing! So I'd better stick to real technique instead of raw power... like THIS!"

    The circle of Notes breaks as one of them - placed at Sarracenia's side, the one that logic says would take the longest amount of time to bring the hammer about towards - dives in with those claw-fists. A freakish aura kicks up through the golden energy surrounding her. It shapes outwards, taking on a strange... beastly flare...?!

    "New Turtle Style... WOLF FANG FIST!!" The power around Note HOWLS as she swoops in, plants her feet, and sends her right claw-hand strike straight for Sarracenia's gut, following it up with a ferocious flurry of similar strikes that each channel a very visible swirl of shaped energy into the blows. It's flashy, as wolf heads of pure ki adorn the strikes, but each one hits like a wolf in frenzy, grinding and tearing as much as it delivers raw impacts.

Cordelay Levail (6936) has posed:
"Her people must be born warriors if their potential is that high." Cordelay muses, accepting the bag of popcorn and absently munching on it. "I wonder if I could learn their techniques. Though if that blast from earlier is indicative of their destructive potential such techniques may cause too much collateral damage on a battlefield. Still, fascinating."

Sarracenia has posed:
     Sarracenia once again seems pretty proud of herself after that deflection! Even moreso as Note redirects it as well and sends it flying off to explode against the cliffs. "Oh my! That might have rivaled one of my Bonzai Bills!" Sarracenia says, marvelling at Note's innate destructive power. After all, the little saiyan girl isn't using anything but her own energy and fists!

     When Note surrounds Sarracenia with more Notes, the princess looks pretty uncertain. It is complete dumb luck that Sarra just happens to turn right as Note comes in to attack, and the first punch impacts the seemingly indestructible head of that DK Hammer. Probably like punching the material that broke the Z-sword, the first punch snaps Sarracenia's attention to Note and the princess displays her skill and grace as she pulls the head of the hammer in close, gripping it just below the head, then matches each punch with a short thrust of that hammer.

     Deserving or not, Princess Sarracenia is grinning ear to ear after that. "Nice try! But I am not only about raw power either!" ...she really is, but luck has been on her side today. The princess leaps back quickly, leaving a Bob-omb in her wake to explode near Note and give Sarracenia a bit of space. She twirls in place and in a few quick motions throws three bullets nearly as big as herself up into the air, each one with a shark-like face and little white, cartoonish arms. "Alright! I think it is time to end this! You have fought valiantly, but I am going to prove that orb wrong by defeating you!" she declares as she starts to spin faster in place. Those three Bullet Bills start back down, and with amazing precision Sarracenia strikes each on the flat at the back of the bullet.

     With the power of her hammer, each one is fired like a heavy cannon shot. A very heavy cannon, considering the size of those bullets and how they rocket through the air. Each grinning shark face would likely fill Note's vision before impacting like a freight train and then exploding like an artillery shell! Three powerful explosions that send up small mushroom clouds afterwords!

Tomoe has posed:
Tomoe Says "They are. Depends on what and I know some of their strongest use techniques they learned from humans and other species." She grins a little bit and will chop down on some of the popcorn. "Generally they make great siege units or dealing with horrors from space and the like. So what kind of world are you from? I'm not exactly standard for my world. Then again it's radically changed a few years ago."

Note (6386) has posed:
    Note yelps loudly at finding her barrage striking the seemingly indestructible hammer. That STINGS SOMETHING FIERCE and leaves her staggering with her arms SCREAMING in pain lashing through her whole upper body. This leaves her completely open to the Bob-Omb at point blank range. All Note can do is raise her arms to shield her face and -- KABOOOOM.

    She's utterly engulfed in the explosion. It tears at her body, scorches her skin, and nearly flings her straight off her feet... but Note stubbornly stays in place and focuses on her inner energies. Keeps the explosion from ripping her apart. Note staggers, coughing and dizzy from pain, but with a loud kiai uses her power to cast back the smoke and the dust and clear her vision. She never lost track of Sarracenia's position, but...

    "... WHERE DID THOSE COME FROM?!" Note's tired out already, but DOWN comes the Bullet Bills... Note shrieks in panic and attempts to KICK one of the Bullet bills back into another--

    But it explodes on contact.

    Surrounded by all three, she's sent flying like a ragdoll and bounces along the ground, arms and legs bloodied and scorched. After the third bounce the aura vanishes and her hair's brilliant golden shade fades back to black.

    She hits the ground hard, skidding slowly to a halt.

    "The orb...?" Note coughs and splutters into the ground. Her whole body's ON FIRE with pain and exhaustion but her mind's, if anything, strangely clear. "Oh..." Struggling against the exhaustion, Note turns her head to look at the distant princess... and frowns. "You're... that upset... over the stupid... orb...?" Note doesn't get it. She clearly doesn't get it. But the frown intensifies. "You wanted a fight just 'cuz that bothered...?!" Or maybe she does get it. The little youth's face twists in childish anger. "Ah... magic hammer. All the money... all this stuff was just given to you, huh?" It shouldn't be possible, but Note gathers her strength and slides a foot forward and rises to kneel, panting for breath. "You're nice so I like you, but..."

    She wobbles to her feet, though can't seem to gather the strength to raise her head yet. Blood drips slowly from her arms and legs as her body trembles and shivers weakly.

    "You haven't EARNED anything you've got. You think being this Princess thing means you don't have to try? Don't gotta learn? Nuh-uh... if all this is to prove that orb wrong, then I ABSOLUTELY CANNOT LET YOU WIN THIS. Or you'll never make it shine!" A bolt of lightning arcs across Note's body from seemingly nowhere. "You want that orb to shine for you? Then try taking hours and hours... days and days... weeks and weeks... and learn to do something like this!!" With a thunderous roar of crackling power, Note's once again engulfed in the familiar flare of Super Saiyan aura... but this time she's wreathed in a storm of errant bolts of lightning... and as she raises her head to Sarracenia and shifts her legs and bends knees into a deeper stance, the girl inhales deeply... and brings her hands to her side, palms facing each other, and fingers curled in. "Kaaaaaaaaaaaaa...... Meeeeee...."

    Brilliant light like a newborn star gleams, then roils to life as a growing point between those palms. It rapidly grows to fill the space, struggling to escape her grip. But the ball cannot. The energy's compressed more and more even as more and more's poured into it. "Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Meeeeeeeeee......"

    Note shifts her waist slightly forward, thrusts those hands out and opens her palms straight at Sarracenia. "HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!"

    The radiance is blinding. A flash of light that bleaches everything into stark light and deep shadow. The energy Note gathered flares... then is unleashed in a torrential outpouring, a beam that's many times bigger around than her body. Twenty feet across, easily. It vaporizes the ground in its path, and the roar of its approach is deafening!

Sarracenia has posed:
     Sarracenia lets out a long, growly huff of frustration at what note says. "None of the other princesses did! They were simply handed their fame and fortune and adoration without any actual effort on their parts! At least I have gone out into the world and the Multiverse and done things! But, because I am not only sunshine and smiles like Daisy or that obnoxious Peach my own people!"

     Sarracenia pauses in her speech each time Note lets out one of those long syllables. Kaaaa. "I am not content to simply sit in my castle!"

     Meeeee. "I have made a name for myself on my own, for better or worse!"

     Haaaa. "And still my own kingdom does not respect me!"

     Meeee. "No suitors have come to call on me!"

     That final syllable is let loose, along with that blinding beam. Sarracenia nnnngs and brings her hammer up. "And then that orb said I am not special!! ME!! So...I must prove it wroooonnnng!!" Her last word mingles with the sound of that beam impacting her hammer, and like the last beam she is pushed backward. But, this time her hammer is not making progress against the beam. It is steadily pushed back, and so is Sarracenia. Her expression tightens as she pushes harder, but the blue-white is steadily inching its way closer to her body.

     Finally, her hammer is pushed back fully and Sarracenia's scream is easily heard even with that beam overtaking and engulfing her. The princess's form disappears in the beam and the explosion that follows, along with much of the cliffside behind her.

     When the dust and smoke and energy finally clears...somehow, Sarracenia is still standing. She lost her crown in the blast, and her battle dress is tattered in many places, most notably over her toned belly. She is panting heavily and looks fairly bruised and battered herself. She even coughs up a bit of blood from the attack, then pulls a red handkerchief from her satchel and wipes her hands and face. "But...I still have to know how to use all this power that has been granted to me. Simply throwing it around haphazardly would get me nowhere. That much I have learned from you and others. I had to refine my style a bit, much to my chagrin."

     She smirks a bit darkly. "And I think you would agree when I say it has paid off." she says as she reaches into her bag again and pulls out a pair of Bob-ombs. "I must admit though, you are quite impressive to have survived my Bullet Bill Barrage. I think only my Bonzai Bill has any more destructive power." She starts walking toward Note, then progresses into a jog, a run, and finally a sprint. "But my strength is the only thing I have which anyone other than a select few has admired! And so I cannot keep losing! I will prove my worth!"

     She throws one Bob-omb, waits for it to travel a bit before throwing the next, trying to force Note to commit to a defensive action before having to deal with the next Bob-omb. And of course, both explode with quite a bit of force!

Cordelay Levail (6936) has posed:
Cordelay tears her eyes away from the battle long enough to respond, "My world is in chaos. Long before I was born, the empire that ruled the continent I call home crumbled. Since then the land has been in constant conflict, with self-proclaimed kings, warlords and populist leaders seeking to take that lost imperial glory for themselves."

She sighs softly. "We lack much of the technology I've witnessed throughout the Multiverse. Our weapons are those of wood and steel - swords, spears, bows and the like. Nothing like some of the more 'advanced' weapons I've seen since my journey began. But they have thus far served the needs of my home's warriors. I've begun to fear how vulnerable we may be to invaders from other worlds..."

As the final blow is struck, Cordelay turns back to the combatants. "There is so much more that my people have yet to encounter."

Note (6386) has posed:
    "Haaaaaaaawhhhhhf...." After all of that oomph, Note's running on empty. She can barely stay standing. It's all she can do to grin. With a strange *zorsh* noise the aura of crackling power vanishes as she can no longer sustain the Super Saiyan form.

    All she can do is stand and listen. And try to make sense of a number of topics and emotions that are significantly beyond her years and worldly experience.

    At the last moment the girl just flails her arms up into a guard... and is blown backwards by the first Bob-omb, no need for a second. She's DOWN. Face down in the dirt. Her whole body trembles and shakes as she tries to get back up, but...

    Too much pain. Too much exhaustion.

    "... I don't get it.. I just don't get it... but... if you wanna... talk about this... when my head's not spinning... we can... owwwwwww...."

Sarracenia has posed:
     The zone resets when Note is unable to continue, and all the wounds they had suffered evaporate to leave only some residual fatigue and perhaps some soreness. Sarracenia pulls a large fancy brush out of her satchel and brushes her hair as she makes her way toward Note. "It is alright if you do not understand. Perhaps it is even good. It means you do not know the suffering that such things can bring." she says once she is closer.

     Sarracenia reaches a hand out to help Note up and smiles lightly. "Thank you for accepting my challenge. I feel much better now. And it seems the clothing you received from Arthur are holding up as promised!" She hesitates a moment after that. "...if you really do wish to hear about me, I do not mind sharing. But, I am not sure one so young can truly grasp what the issues are."

Note (6386) has posed:
    "Hahaha.." Note's impressed to survived the bombs? And look what Sarracenia just managed to withstand.

    As soon as the simulation ends though, Note finds that... most of her wounds are nothing more than scratches and bruises now. She blinks a few times as the pain's gone... and then hops to her feet, glancing herself over. Her tail sways about behind her and she glances at that too. "W-whoah...."

    This place is WEIRD indeed.

    Stupefied, she just stares into space as her mind struggles to comprehend the implications of this crazy place...

    Then, she rapidly shakes her head to clear it... and just sits down, overwhelmed.

    "All I can really do is TRY..."

Tomoe has posed:
Tomoe says "So born in the wake of a larger ruling body imploding. That can't be a good thing no matter one's level of technology. If It makes you feel better my world is fairly advanced in a lot of fields but the fear of the bigger fish crushing us is a very real one. As much as I'm loathed to say it the fusion of the Digital World to the material may be a good one it changed a lot of things including people like me. As for the digital thing that merge think waking dreams played for entertainment and many oddly would be about worlds like the one you hail from. We're also always in need of more help to keep the new monster problems under control too if you are looking for a fight. I also know ... one hell of a sword fighter to one named the Black Swordsman. The man who beat the Death Game."

Cordelay Levail (6936) has posed:
"I still find the Multiverse baffling, to be honest. But if there are strong monsters in your world I may have to come test my strength there." Cordelay smiles at Tomoe and nods respectfully. "Thank you, Miss Tomoe."

Cordelay approaches the combatants, declaring, "I've witnessed your strength once again, Your Highness. And you as well, Miss Note - that was an impressive battle. Your skills are both incredible." Her eyes glitter with joy at having witnessed such a match, the happiness written across her face.

Sarracenia has posed:
     Sarracenia blinks as she watches and listens to Note and ends up smiling gently. "That's really all anyone can do." she says, still holding a hand out to Note. "Come on. I believe it has become traditional to enjoy a meal after one of these shrine matches." she says, then giggles a bit. "We can go to a buffet. And afterwords, I can take you dress shopping!"

     When Cordelay approaches Sarracenia smirks and twirls in place before giving her hair a flip. "I am amazing, it is true." she says, then grins a bit. "Perhaps you and Note should test each other next time?"
