Valo was like a whirlwind, attacking the skinny bandit first before turning his attention to the bigger one. Suna kept her slow melody going, sustaining her Ritenuto. He made quick work of the two bandits, even against the burly man with the battle axe. It was really cool to watch his physical forms and attacks - she would have to read up about those moves later. "That should be the last of them." She finished the song with a flourish, and sent her harp back into her grimoire. The town was coming into view, and she would not need it anymore.
"Well those punks didn't amount to much did they?"
"No, they didn’t." Suna had to admit that she enjoyed the rush of battle. They made quite the team, and surprisingly, she would not mind if she got to fight alongside this interesting fellow again. They were nearing town, but the guy was peppering her with questions. She did not mind them as much now, since he had proven himself able and trustworthy.
"A Magic Knight? Hmm..." she tapped her chin. She had, in fact, been thinking about it, but she would have to break off all ties from the Forest. That would take a little time. "Maybe. Perhaps I’ll join the Black Bulls. I heard they are competitors with Green Mantis." Her facial expression was somber, but a playful light danced in her azure eyes. "But we’ll see, because I’m not sure if I would want to fight against a certain guy in that squad."
As they entered Sosshi, the elf glanced at the tall mage on the other side of the cart. "Guess this is where we part. I wish you all the best in Green Mantis." Though she was usually awkward and shy when it comes to giving praise, she meant it sincerely. It was also strange, saying goodbyes. "Maybe the next time we meet, we will be on opposite sides. Who knows?" She honestly did not know what the future held, but it definitely would not be boring for either one of them.
She turned to the tomato vendor. "Can I buy a tomato with the yul you’re about to pay me?" After the exchange of tomato and yul, she grinned mischievously and threw the tomato at Valo, aiming to hit him on the shoulder. "Jaa ne!" She waved, and before the guy could react, scurried down the street to her favorite bookstore in Sosshi.
She entered the bookstore, pausing for a second and breathing in the wonderful smell of old books and yellowing pages. She simply loved the smell of history. Approaching the store owner, she asked for the unfinished book, and proceeded to curl up in a corner. She had reached the part where the heroine met a guy along the road, and read in fascination as the pair went on an adventure protecting the innocents and battling robbers. Somehow, the story felt very familiar...
"Wait, what happened?" She almost threw the book down in exasperation. The store owner came over, hearing the commotion. She showed him the book. The last few pages were missing. The owner could only shrug helplessly - it was an old and used book, there was not another copy of that book as far as he knew.
Suna pursed her lips. "I’ll take it." She rarely bought books, since she usually read them through so fast, it was not worth spending money on it. But this particular one caught her fancy, and though it was incomplete, it called to her. I’ll write the ending myself! She paid for it with some of the yul she had just earned, and just as she was about to leave, she paused by the doorway, remembering something. "By the way, how far is it from here to Kikka?"

| MANA | POOL 90/90 | REGEN 5 IC / 10 OOC | SKIN/HEALTH SENIOR |
| ITEMS | No items here (get a broom!) |
| STATS | BATTLE SUMMARY |
| POW 16 DUR 00 SEN 04 STA 35 CON 20 | Sustained Ritenuto, -5 mana. IC mana regen +5. |
| SPELLS [POSE] | Music Composition: Capriccio (Forte) Elemental Type: Sound & Pure Aura Music Technique: Sforzando (Forte) Rank & Spell Type: Junior Rank, Attack Creation Range & Speed: 10m | 10m/s (AoE) Mana Cost: 10 | 5 Stats Effected: +2 Power Applicable Perks: Apex Predator To activate this attack spell, Suna will strike up a quick series of notes, loud and sharp like the patter of winter hail. Her pure aura will morph into white flint-like arrowheads (2in by 3in) that hangs above the enemy, and her sound will make those arrowheads fall down in an circular area of 10 meters. The density of falling arrowheads will depend on her ability to play in polyphony, a musical texture consisting of two or more simultaneous lines of independent melodies, as opposed to just one dominant melodic voice. To sustain the barrage, Suna must keep her tempo above vivace (lively and brisk tempo, 156–176 bpm) and play a series of tremolos, which is repeating a specific note or notes as rapidly as possible to produce a quivering effect. Apex Predator gives this spell an additional +3 power stack-able buff caps after 5 attacks or +15 to the enemy. At Suna's current junior level, it cannot be sustained for more than three motifs (three posts, not including the post when the spell is cast); then the piece must be started again from the beginning and the spell must be recast. This spell is not limited to which instrument she uses, it is only a musical form type. [Optional] Summoning An Instrument: If Suna does not already have an instrument on hand, she may summon her guzheng by humming a G (392hz). Her guzheng is 64"x12.6" / 162x32cm. Elemental Type: Sound & Pure Aura Music Technique: Ritenuto (Piano) Rank & Spell Type: Junior Rank, Attack Creation Range & Speed: 10m | 10m/s (AoE) Mana Cost: 10 Stats Effected: +2 Power Applicable Perks: Apex Predator For this attack spell, Suna shapes her aura into spears (ammo) that float stationary next to her until she plays sudden, accented notes, which will then launch themselves out in a cone-shaped area all at once. Each spear is 60in / 152cm in length and 2in / 5cm in width, with the tip being slightly wider 3in / 7.6cm. The maximum number of spears Suna can use is 1 + (Control/5). Apex Predator gives this spell an additional +3 power stack-able buff caps after 5 attacks or +15 to the enemy. This spell does not sustain, as it launches all its spears out at the same time. The more spears she has, the wider the cone. This attack spell is not limited to which instrument she uses to launch the spears, as the technique is the same. [Optional] Summoning An Instrument: If Suna does not already have an instrument on hand, she may summon her harp by humming a C (262hz). Her harp is 33"x19"x6" / 83x48x15cm. Elemental Type: Sound Rank & Spell Type: Junior Rank, Restraining Magic Range & Speed: 10m | 10m/s (AoE) Mana Cost: 10 | 5 Stats Effected: -2m/s Applicable Perks: Tightly Bound, Vampiric Magic To activate this restraining spell, Suna plucks out the melody on her right hand while tampering the full sound by lightly muffling the strings with her left hand, indicating its restraining effects. As the music flows from the instrument, the sound takes form of a small flowing stream that is 1 meter in width. It snakes towards the enemy and spreads in a circle (1 meter in diameter) beneath each target's feet. When in contact with its target(s), the aura spreads upwards to bind movements and to slow down their speed by -2m/s. This will only affect the first [1 + (Control/5)] targets in contact, one additional target will have their speed debuffed by -1m/s, and any other targets will not be affected. This binding restraint is an AoE effect. The spell only physically affects the enemy, and cannot restrain any spoken or verbal spell castings of retaliation. Vampiric Magic's mana drain will only be applied to the two targets of Suna's choosing. To sustain the bind, Suna must keep playing in ritenuto, the tempo gradually becoming slower and slower. The slower and calmer her music is, the more effective the bind. Any distractions to her state of mind will affect success of sustaining the spell. The restraints have the health of junior rank spells - if dealt damage that are equal or above the spell's rank, the restraints will dissolve and be dispelled. This restraining spell is not limited to which instrument she uses, as the technique is the same. [Optional] Summoning An Instrument: If Suna does not already have an instrument on hand, she may summon her harp by humming a C (262hz). Her harp is 33"x19"x6" / 83x48x15cm. |
