Garin released Atlas from his arms, "good Atlas I promise you it'll be fun" Garin Picked his sheild up from the ground, "but msy I ask more about your aspect, what is it and how does it work fully?"
Atlas took a moment to respond, "to be honest I'm not sure, I only grasped how to use it a few days ago, after fighting with my life on the line I manifested my first blade."
Garin took a second to respond, "but your status screen must tell you more about your power right? I'm not asking you to tell me everything just what I need to know to cover you"
Looking at the gargantuan man Atlas knew he just wanted to help, before he could speak Garin interrupted him.
Putting both hands on his sheild he stood Upright, "I'll tell you about myself first to put you at ease, Like I said my Aspect revolves around mental effects and it giffted me sheild Arts. I can so things like make less intelligent monsters attack me as well as get a grasp for what an enemy if feeling and what there next move will be, now your turn"
Atlas stood dumbfounded for a few moments, but he appreciated his explanation. "It just shows as question marks and symbols for most of it, very little is readable" Atlas was well aware of that, the overseer forced Atlas to share his screen every day, but nothing ever changed. Until he met West and learned his rapier arts.
Gain looked at atlas silently for a moment, "Atlas this may be a bit to much to ask, but if I show you my status screen will you show me yours, the curiosity is to overwhelming!"
Atlas stood silent for a momentand thought to himself, the fact that he'd never seen anyone other then his own, seeing Garins status screen could teach him a lot. "Let's do it, but you first"
Garin smiled and opened his hand out of his palm a white ethereal border showed up In the midde of the border text in the same white color could be seen, Atlas glanced at this screen but something about it felt strange like his thoughts were no longer his own. The text read.

Atlas severally underestimated Garin, if Garin wanted. He could absolutely demolish him like a fly. Somewhat regretting his aproch he spok. "How are you so strong, to be honest I thought you were just some old man, who are you"
Garin started laughing with a hand on his belly, "Well as you know I'm Garin, I'm an A+ level Adventurer, I travel with my party the Iorn Vangard, we mainly provide Escorts, but that's enough about me, show me about yourself"
Atlas raised his hand as the Head master made him do a 1000 times, a dark Shadowy black and purple border rose from his palm, its text an ethereal black, it read.

Garin stood there for many moments, reading the screen over and over again. "That is strange, I've never seen anything Like this, it's almost sealed off, blocked by something." He took a breathe as Atlas put his screen away, "may you show me the rapier?"
Atlas nodded and summoned the rapier again feeling the power draw from his soul. The black rapier formed in his hands filling them.
Garin looked at the rapier to and down. "Well one things for sure Atlas your special, incredibly special but still its to be on the safe side, I'll explain the details to my party, only the things they need to know, I've known these pepole for 20+ years, there all pepole I do, and you can trust. But we've been here too long let's head back to the camp"
Atlas had nothing to pack, he put on his old rags and walked along side Garin. The journey was quiet until Garin spoke up.
Looking at Atlas he started, "So I'll tell you a bit about my little group. I'll start with myself, I'm the group leader and act as the tank/lead battle tactics, Then Elara my daughter, she has a wind aspect, let's her arrows glide straight and true, and launch wind atacks that are pretty devastating, Then we have Thorn a dwarf, he's pretty unique. His Aspect is blacksmithing, he uses a huge battle hammer, but his Aspect allows him enchant allies weapons and armor with magical effects, even repairing them. Lyria on the other hand is a crafty and sneaky one, she has a feather aspect that let's her move incredibly quietly, and move almost as is she's gliding in the wind. Last but not least we have Fiona, don't know a lot about her, shes some kinda of sentiant plant creature that communicates telepathicly, but she was raised by druids somewhere and when bad guys killed her family she fled, she found protection in our group, her healing magic is quiet helpful when needed, any questions?"
Atlas head was bursting at the seams with questions, didn't even knew dwarfs were real, a Blacksmith and feather attribute thoes had to be rare,a sentiant plant creature that communicates telepathicly as a party healer, but before Atlas could ask any questions he was interrupted.
Garin giggled at Atlas expression, "well if you have any questions too late were almost thwlere, only thing you need to know now is were in the middle of an escort mission for a big shot noblemans daughter, bringing her to the Capital. It'll be just my Iorn Vangard, and some gaurds the client brought."
Atlas started opening his mouth to speak, so many more questions now, Who was the escort how long will it take to get there so many questions. "Ok ok ok, so who is th-"but again Garin interrupted him
The man smiled "And here we are, base camp"
