Overlord and Unkindled

What should have been an ending, was only a start. Hidden, far away, deep in the forests and at the center of this world a new ruins came to be, seeming to shimmer into existence from nodes of light and ash. Slowly, on a mountain at the edge of a cliff staring into the green fields beyond, the circular tower of Firelink shrine showed itself, it's many attachments and and routes, trails and walkways coming to being. And in the base in the center room sat a stone vessel filled with ash; a coiled blade plunged into it. And so, it linked this world and it's own letting a few brave souls came through together. There, by the bonfire they rested, a few lone figures, all waiting for someone to pass through.

Traveling this road, was none other than a small band of people, a budding group of four dedicated adventurers. All of them were of silver class, and for now working with a man named Momon, and his compatriot Nabe, both of copper class. They were working as bodyguards for a pharmacist boy by the name Nfirea Bareare, who had asked for Momon by name, and was rather famous. They had been intending to go the road along the river, however it was soon proven not safe, even for the large party of adventurers. There just seemed something wrong about it, was it something in air? Perhaps. And so here they are, trekking through a small mountain side pass that led them to the ruins of another world. The sun was setting, and a storm seemed to be brewing, so it would be time to rest soon.

The marry chatter of the group had been mostly uninterrupted, with only a small goblin attack and and rest by a mountain stream. The jovial stories could have gone on longer, had the thunder not roared across the sky nearby. the leader of the group, a blond haired man by name of Peter Mauk, noticed the structure ahead. Calling out to the others they came to a decision to stay from the rain there. The mage of their group, Ninya, could not recall there ever having been a ruined tower here, and certainly not one of this design. But she was not well traveled yet, and so this could be something old, after all the vines and faded stone told of ages past.

Slowly the group pushed forwards, taking a small road to the right off the road they traveled on for the past few hours and upwards to the large building, with the two towers on each side, a bridge linking them behind it. As they came closer, the ranger of the group Lukrut Volve as well as the disguised Narberal Gamma heard fire crackling just inside.

Lukrut: He looked at Peter with a slightly serious face, "Boss, there's someone in there. Fires going, just barely. Either someone just left or were not spending the night there alone." peter and everyone else stopped and listened in.

Nabe: When the black clad knight Momon looked at her she nodded her head, "I can confirm his words. There is a fire just barely burning inside the building." this, of course, drew the lovestruck idiot's attention, him fawning over how they were so alike and making another romantic advance. Only to be brutally shut down.

However Momon and Nabe, neither being real humans, could tell there was more to this building than first thought. Momon especially, it looked eerily familiar to him, like he'd seen it. But if it was from Yggdrasil he'd know, greatly so as he was the leader of the biggest guild in the game. No, this was different, and had a great magic of its own, one he was weary of. But neither had to point it out, as Ninya did it for them, saying that there was magic there, but not very strong. They chose to push forwards, although cautiously, Nfirea being told to get ready to run with the cart should the need arise.

When they got closer, just outside the large door, the could hear the fire just a little better. They tied the horse up and let it rest under an overhanging part of the building, covering the cart with a tarp and leaves to help hide it. The group began to push forwards, Nfirea in the middle. The first to enter was Momon and Nabe, as they had shown off their 'strength' earlier. Although it was really just a mild show to get the idea of their power across. Coming in Momon froze, he knew this place now, something from the hardest game cycle to grace consols. If this was here, he needed to strengthen Nazaric fast, who knew what else came with it. However, what drew the attention of many, were the few figures residing within the building. The Swords of Darkness entered after them and looked down the steps at the current residence.
