In The Northern Side Of The Human Realm We See The Northern Tribe Disclosed Within A Dense Foggy Forest.
Selene And Aaliyah Swiftly Move Through The Forest With Their Mask's Covering The Lower Half's Of Their Faces And Their Cloaks On And Hoods Up…
Selene(Whispering): Alright, Now We Just Need To Find A Way To Get In Without Alerting The Sensory Division…
Aaliyah(Whispering): We Could Hide Our Soul Energy By Cutting It Off Temporarily…
Selene(Whispering): And What Will We Do Once We Get Inside?
Aaliyah(Whispering): We Blend In To The Environment.
Selene And Aaliyah Then Cut Off Their Soul Energy Signatures By Making An Ancient Hand Seal As They Climb The One-Thousand Foot Wall Outside Of The Tribe…
Once They Get To The Top Of The Wall They Look Down To See Wooden Houses And Many Different Shops And Merchants And Humans Even Sorcerers Walking Through The Streets…
Selene(Joking): Well This Looks Nice…
Aaliyah(Chuckling): Now, We Go Down And Get Outta These Clothes And Find Something More Casual…
Selene(Nodding): Yeah!
Selene And Aaliyah Then Jump Down And Land Onto A Tree Branch As They Then Spot A Merchant Selling Clothes Selene And Aaliyah Then Purchase New Clothes And Walk Through The Streets Of The Tribe…
Selene(Whispering): Alright, Now We Can Just Listen Around In Case Someone Has Info About These Rouge Sorcerers…
Aaliyah(Nodding): Yeah, But Where Can We Look?
Suddenly…
Aaliyah(Eyes Widened): Selene Look, We Can Go In There!
Selene(Whispering): A Mixed Bath?!
Aaliyah(Whispering): Maybe Someone In Their Could Have Info About The Rouge Sorcerers.
Aaliyah(Whispering): Plus, It'll Be A Chance For Us To Relax A Little Bit And Wash This Sweat Off.
Selene(Sighing): Fine…
Selene And Aaliyah Then Walk Into The Mixed Bath And Take Off Their Clothes And Put On White Robes…
The Two Then Sit Down In The Hot And Steaming Water To Unwind And Listen For Talk About The Rouge Sorcerers…
Aaliyah(Exhaling): This Feels So Good!
Selene(Nodding): I'll Admit, This Does Feel Pretty Nice!
Selene Then Looks Over To Aaliyah As Aaliyah Sits While Looking, Happy And Uncertain…
Selene(Curious): Are You Alright Mom?
Aaliyah(Nodding): I'm Fine, I'm Just Relieved And Happy That Jason's Alive And Well.
Aaliyah(Depressing): But I Just Wish I Didn't Miss Out On Two Years Of His Life!
Selene(Agreeing): Me Too, But He's Back Now.
Selene(Recounting): And He's Gotten Way Stronger.
Aaliyah(Nodding): Yeah, He Might Even Be Stronger Than You Selene…
Selene(Chuckling): Ehhh I Dunno About That Yet.
The Two Then Share A Laugh As A Woman Approaches Them…
Woman(Whispering): I Haven't Seen You Two Here Before…
Aaliyah(Calm): We're Tourists, Just Visiting From Night City.
Woman(Whispering): Uh Huh, Yeah Let's Cut The Crap.
Woman(Whispering): I Know You Two Are Sorcerers From The City Of Sorcerers.
Woman(Whispering): No Need To Be So Tense, I'm On You're Side.
Woman(Whispering): I Assume You Two Are Investigating The Rouge Sorcerers?
Selene(Whispering): Yeah, You Too?
Woman(Nodding): Yes, My Name Is Natalie!
Aaliyah(Whispering): Aaliyah And This Is My Daughter Selene.
Selene(Curious): Which Tribe Are You From?
Natalie(Dismissive): I'm Not Associated With Any Tribe Nor The Grand Elder, I'm Basically A Free Agent.
Natalie(Serious): I Figure, We Could Work Together And Track Down Some Rouge Sorcerers…
Aaliyah(Curious): Any Leads?
Natalie(Nodding): Yes, There's One In Particular Who I've Been Investigating For A While…
Natalie(Ominous): One Named Ashe!
Natalie(Serious): Follow Me, I'll Show You What I Have On Him So Far!
