Micah chuckled as he threw his hands out to either side, energy spears sliding out of his wrists. Taking a quick step forward, he javelined the first at Keisi, passed the second to his right hand and sent it toward Teisi with another step.

Keisi manages to reach her amulet just in time to vanish in a flash. The attack missing it's mark and dissipating at a distance. However Teisi takes the attack head on and is thrown backwards into the dirt dead. The Dreadfox having perished loses connection with her weapon. The last opponent on their side is a single wolf shifter. The shifters wolf like ears twitch before she slinks backwards and vanishes into the forest shadows. with that Jason sighs and cleans his sword on a cape from one of the shifters.
Turning back the group Jason notes that Amrika has knelt beside Teisi. The Darkborn closes the Dreadfox's eyes with a sigh, "Curse this war and curse Lotus for doing this to us." She yanks a necklace free of Teisi's neck and stands up to look at Micah and Jason with Interest. Her unflinching frosty blue gaze unsettles Jason and the wolf shifter beside Micah as her power is revealed. she speaks in a calm tone, "that does not matter however. what does matter is that two newcomers have killed Teisi Quickburn, I had offered a reward if she was killed and it appears that you have earned said reward."
with a chuckle the original Kitsune gazes deep into Micah's eyes seemingly reading his soul itself. "I can offer you both one favor within my power, oh and it must be reasonable. If you desire the gift now name it or just call my name three times and I will come to you at a later date."
Kashira lets out a choked noise in shock. She turns to Micah, "this is a big deal as Amrika is one of the original 200 Kitsune. think about what you want."

Amrika nods before taking the sword Teisi carried. The weapon is clearly made for someone who is of a higher station. The kitsune slides the weapon free of it's sheath exposing a beautiful blade of fox silver to the moonlight. The weapon was a rapier by design with a sharpened edge that could cut most anything. Whispering something Amrika sets the blade alight in a purple fire that seems to emanate dark energy. With a scoff, the kitsune speaks, "corrupted by Lotus like the owner." Sheathing the weapon she clips it to her belt intent on purifying it later. She looks to Jason who is currently retrieving crests from the fallen wolf shifters. The original Kitsune quickly mutters a spell and Teisi's body becomes pure energy combining with the weapons that the shifters dropped in the air. A burst of light occurs and a very unique piece of armor drifts down into Amrika's arms. The armor is in the design of a coat with furs lining parts of it that match the color of Teisi's fur, a midnight black color. pieces of metal are woven into the coat to deflect lethal blows on vital organs. The coats coloration makes it looks so chaotic as the silver metal and black color schemes produce something that is rarely seen by Etrenian armorers. The back of the armor has a line of scales that protect the spine from damage as well. With a smile Amrika walks over to Jason and places the armor on his shoulders before speaking, "That should allow you access to Dasha and his court. It will also ensure that you return to me at some point." She growls the last bit in a possessive tone. Standing in front of Jason it is revealed that she is, in fact, taller than him. It is also apparent that Jason's new form is smaller, in fact, he seemed to be around 5.6 to 5.7 now. The Huli-Jing's ears fold back in a submissive manner as he understands the kitsune's intent. With a nod, he stammers out a reply, "o-of course I...promise to return at some point." His eye averts from her's as she smirks. Then she turns to Micah and in a calm voice asks, "do you wish for me to use a teleport spell for you or would you rather make your way to Etrens port town lone?"
At this point, Amrika's attendants start taking the wolf shifter corpses away to be buried properly. One of them fills a bag with the shifters remaining money and drops it at Micah's feet before quickly scurrying off to do something else. once the bodies are gone they vanish from sight with some taking watch in the trees. One of the observers a female with a soft complexion and crystal blue eyes giggles at Jason when he is put on the spot by Amrika.
Kashira stands of to the side with an amused smile on her face as everything happens. Her eyes light up when the gold is dropped at Micah's feet. The money laying at his feet currently was worth at least a few nights in a top notch inn while in Etren. In other lands maybe more maybe less. She accidentally rubs her burn accross her belt and lets out a pained gasp.

Micah glances down at the money. "Teleport, in just a moment." He walks to Kashira, taking her burned limb, and envelops it in white light. The burn doesn't heal, per se, but the edges start to itch and the pain numbs. Picking up the money, he nods to Amrika. "I am ready."

Kashira smiles and nods at Micah to let him know she is thankful. Then she readies to be Transported by Amrika who pushes Jason back to group with a half smirk. With a snap of Amrika's fingers the whole group is enveloped in brilliant light before they feel a twisting sensation. When the Light Recedes they are standing at the front gates of steelcross feeling like they had made the journey without transporting.
Steelcross looked about as impressive outside as it did inside the town/City. The walls seemed small but in truth they had never been breached. Buildings reached up past the gates and were made from stone and brick with tiled roofing. The gate was a massive stone archway with carvings of Etrenian houses etched into it. In the distance a massive fortress rose up to the sky in a defiant cry of power. The smell of food drifted from the seaside city making Kashira hungry. Jason felt oddly normal. However the whole group could hear the people inside the city as they went about their day.
Jason looks to Micah and with a shrug approaches the closed gate. The door was made form wood with a metal grate that could be dropped to seal the entrance. A set of Guards at the gate stop jason and the others. The youngest guard speaks to the group, "Name, Occupation and, Nationality please." The older guard circles the group checking weapons and races. He scribbles everything in a black book before stopping behind the group.
Kashira whisper just loud enough for Micah and Jason to hear. "The nations that are considered friendly are Etren, Yathari, and Udra." Then she Speaks to the Guard, "I am Kasi from Etren and I work as a Bounty Hunter."
Jason speaks up next in a annoyed tone, "I am Jason of Yathari and I am a Adventurer."
The older Guard smiles before writing in his book. He then looks to Micah.

"Micah. I have no nation. I am a battle cleric." He glanced at Kashira, then simplified, "Monk." No matter what the universe, if there was religion, monks, whether combat trained or not, were understood as men of peace unless provoked. Every universe he had read of, monks were allowed to travel freely. "I am originally from Yathari, however."

The Guard looks confused for a second before writing in his book. He nods to the younger guard who motions for the gate to be opened. With a smile he motions towards the opening gate, "welcome to Steelcross."
Jason leads the group inside and they find themselves in the market and business side of the city. Stalls are all spaced out around a square. Buildings are set up in a way to form four separate roads leading through the city. The Stall closest to the group is selling various treasures and magical artifacts. Behind his stall another woman is Selling various potions.
Jason focuses in on a woman leaning against a light post. She is tall with an athletic build that she is hiding behind a green cloak. A strange scent drifts from her, one close to Jason's. A coin rolls through her knuckles as she watches the Square quietly. Jason knew this was one of the Gumiho Protective Group assigned to watch over Dasha. Quietly Jason asks micah, "What do you think we should do next? There are magical blacksmiths and other shops around here, we have the money for it."
Kashira speaks up, "We could also try to work for an invitation to the Kings party in Udra."
They finish talking and the man at the treasure stall shout out, "Thief!" As a Cloaked figure runs from the stall. The figure is moving fast and the guards can't get over in time to stop them. This prompts Jason to break away from the group and shout for Micah to cut them off. Jason meanwhile pursues the thief and actually manages to maintain a pace with them as they sprint through the market.

Micah spreads his wings, taking to the air. He's a little clumsy for a second as he sorts his knowledges and disparate muscle memories, but once he levels out he closes quickly. He swoops past the thief, landing in three steps ahead of him. His left hand is slightly away from his side, fist clenched as he suddenly wrenches it forward. The thief's feet fly out from under him as if pulled by a rope. Micah turns, ready in case they somehow kept their footing.
