Out for Blood (Dime/Open) [#235]

[Sir Galahad]

The men would shrug at Jericho.

"Sorry sir, we haven't seen him since he entered. Might try the shrine. That's where the men he came with were going."

[Jericho]

"Then we will go there. Your compliance is..." Jericho turned to Dime and thought of what she would want him to say. "...appreciated." What an odd word.

He made his way to Dime and uttered, "Come. We will go to the shrine. If he is not there then his men will, and we can question them."

He would then continue toward the shrine if she did not stop him.

[Dime Price]

She hardly hesitated... The hall was long and the rows of seats were littered with Zells communing and praying. At the end of the great Hall there was a wall of curtains where they kept the shrine. And a brush aside with those curtains flying open the shrine was centered and people laid at his feet. A painting.. a mural if you will telling the Territory's history... Raikotsu’s history...

From raising the castle ruling in with the tainted land. Ruling with a bloody hand... Illustrated with dragon symbolism and a river of blood that flows continuously with his journey as if time goes on. More so... When Rai leaves the mural and wave of blood washed away all his work into ruin. And the people that survived... Her people still thought fate was going to bring him back to make a cleansing happen. A return and unite the Territory... They were not wrong however... No longer at war and a United mind.

She hoped

She would scope those in the room and start to maneuver through the praying bodies. A few corners were more secluded and can't be seen immediately.

[Sir Galahad]

The shrine was packed about as much as is it often was, but at first glance neither Jericho nor Dime would see the man they were looking for.

[Jericho]

Jericho separated from hi companion in search for the target. When no results came of it, he sought Dime out again.

"You are more sensible with emotions and human relations. Should we question them?"

[Dime Price]

So many people...

"Keep looking, check the Silences..." she whispered. Rooms beyond the velvet red curtains on the sides would reveal four rooms, two on either side that had one rule... No talking. Deafening silence for ones own thoughts to run amok if these rooms were shared there was no more words spoken than what would be written on parchment and pen. They influenced inspiration and caused one to truly think on what they needed. If something was secret thats a good place to accomplish it.

[Jericho]

Jericho nodded. "You take left."

From there he proceeded to their right, where he would examine the two rooms.

[Dime Price]

She nodded to him anx would proceed to the left and check beyond the curtains.

[Sir Galahad]

Jericho wouldn't find anything.

Dime however would see a small group huddled close together, whispering amongst themselves.

[Dime Price]

She would look at Jericho and send a mental word for him to join her. But she would stay and listen to what might have been said. Talking in the silences was against the rules. She might take it as they were not ones that respect their customs.

Qi:1

[Jericho]

Jericho heard his friend, and made his way beside her to join in her listening.

[Sir Galahad]

The small group continued their huddled whispers unaware of the two approaching.

[Dime Price]

Dime used a single finger and opened the curtain barely a visible inch and brought her ear close to listen and see if she could catch what they might be saying

[Jericho]

Jericho awaited for her signal.

[Sir Galahad]

The men were whispering to quietly and too quickly for Dime to catch, however when one of the men shifted his stance she would see the man they were looking for! It seemed like the whole group was huddled around him!
