"so what now" as Caladarn sits on a chair drinking a full cup of Bitwood "we seem to be finding a lot of activity toward the portal that showed up and echoed of essence of a anomaly" as Kevin adjusts his glasses and points to a map showing the area of the portal but raises a stack of figures to the outskirts "very good we will leave a line of Milita soldiers around it to protect the local people their" Caladarn smiles as Kevin seems to take charge "and if we do this right we can close the portal or at least contain the corruption that seeps out"
Caladarn claps his hands "very good Kevin you do have a stout notion of a commander" as Kevin just sighs "but this is just hypothetical what about applicable way" Kevin just looks the map as it changes to a battle map "you will fight against me and the timer" Caladarn stands on the other side "every fight will be based on observation and tactics" Kevin just sighs "we done this before and you keep winning"
Caladarn looks at Kevin with a serious tone "it's not about winning but how to learn from your previous failures" as Caladarn slaps Kevin in the head "you need to remember even if you lose their is nothing wrong with retreating as long as your men are not left behind" Kevin just hisses "was that necessary" Caladarn just smiles "it is custom of hero kingdom to slap in the head to keep your mind leveled" Kevin just hisses "bullshit" Caladarn just smiles
"Ok I'm back Kevin come with me it's your time to practice your magic" as Acolyte comes in and sees Caladarn "oh dad I didn't know you were here" as Caladarn smiles slapping the back of the head "Decker told you that didn't he" Caladarn just smiles "yep Decker did" as Caladarn just walks off a echo of a voice resonates in him "keep him save and don't do that again" Caladarn just smiles and nods "he is fine give him a little faith" as the voice echos "I do have faith in him just make sure he stays safe"
"Now magic is a bit of hard for your kind or at least what I read in the books I found in being others" Acolyte just moves the map and rolls it up as the items on it begin to disappear "why do people us that" Kevin just snaps angrily as Acolyte to buys putting things up "call you what" as Acolyte fixes up the room it begins to melt and expand almost alive like "that word were people not that word" as Kevin just snaps and speaks louder "the others" as Acolyte looks at the books "we are people like you"
As Acolyte just sighs "the word others are people who exist beyond the place of design" as he pauses and looks at his book "the name others is more of a title than a species" as Acolyte almost not paying attention with his words "but Victus named it the others cause he said it fits who you guys are" as Kevin just yells "WELL WE ARE PEOPLE TO AND I DONT GIVE A FUCK WHAT VICTUS CALLS US" as he goes wide eyed looking at Acolyte just nods "your enate magic abilities are not like ours" sighing "well if you wish I will not call you a other" as a soldier comes in and stands at attention "oh master Acolyte and other Kevin we have a visitor" as Acolyte and Kevin looks at him
"who is it" as the soldier begins to speak the women in a fur suit and heels "oh its good to see you Kevin how are you" Kevin just smiles "oh cindy what are you doing here" as she smiles back and snaps her fingers and a item drops in kevins hands "your reward for saving that women she was actually a diplomat from the Spark Knights deminsion" as Kevin just shrugs "I didn't do it for a reward" as Acolyte puts his and on Kevins shoulder "you need to take it and we need to make a trip their a ways"
Kevin just sighs and walks off passing Cindy and Acolyte seeing Cromwell sitting on a rock playing with children as the children laugh and smile Cromwell just looks in curiosity and wonder Kevin walks to the children as he just sighs "what is wrong Mr other" Kevin just wide eyed and the child begins to cry Kevin kneels down and shh the child "no I'm sorry hey what are you playing" as a boy pushes the girl aside "you need to kneel before you speak to the princess" as he just stands holding a stick and a pot lid "I'm sorry sir knight I didnt mean to be so rude my mistress I'm am sorry" as the boy nods and see the girl smile
