Fourth Sword | Video

[Martin looks all business. He actually has his sword visible in the Warp Band, which is obviously being held by a 'mon as Martin is gathering his pack]

I am going down to Old City to do some investigation--and before any of my nannies ask, yes I have plenty of medical supplies. You're welcome to come with me, if you'd like.

[A pause]

Matthias, if the Commander will let you, I'd like you in particular to come with me.

[[OOC: THIS IS NOT THE CONFRONTATION POST, this is just Martin going down to the Old City for some exploration to see if he can find anything out because this guy has a hero complex the size of Manhattan some times. If you signed up for Old City and want to come explore with him, please just tag the thread below!

Otherwise feel free to nag at him.]

[Tiria floats back to keep Kaoru company. Hopefully that will help his nerves.]

In that case, if something goes wrong Matthias and Basil should head back and get help. I hope nothing will go wrong but...well, better safe than sorry.

[He stops, swaying in place for a moment before shaking his head and moving on]

Am I the only one who hears the voices?

[iamthatis]

I hear...something that sounds like voices, but I can't make out what they're saying.

[It was freaking him out though, please to be stopping that.]

[evokedorpheus]

I've been hearing them too, just... trying to ignore them.

[Kaoru warbles softly at Tiria, a quiet thank you as he relaxes a little.]

[warriormouse]

[She carefully pats his shoulder. She gets it. It's freaky.]

I'm trying, but it isn't working so well. Perhaps because of my accident.

[Martin shudders as they get to a crossroads]

Maybe I shouldn't have come down here.

[iamthatis]

No.

[Matthias tapped his staff hard on the ground, the solid sound helping to ground him in the here and now so he could properly steel himself instead of getting caught in the what ifs. It was an old trick one of his instructors had taught him when he'd first joined the Swords and it had worked wonders since then.]

If there's something strange going on down here, we can't just leave it alone, right? If there's a chance this could spill into Union...I can't just walk away.
