@magister@ He sighed, annoyed at the echidna's egotistical grandstanding, "among your race, that is hardly impressive. He could do it with the proper training," he pointed to Knuckles. "Alright, I have to ask... What the hell is actually true about the legend behind the Kingdom Stone?! Was it all a lie?!" @magister@ "Of course not. While the Kingdom Stone's origin and purpose was indeed a lie, it was to obfuscate its purpose as merely part of a greater whole," the Magister replied. "There was, in fact, a catacylstic battle between two gods - Chaos, the god of Chaos, and Solaris, the god of order, long before that. But then your ancestors were among those who intervened, and separated the two. You are one of the last descendants of the brave men and women who took on gods in their prime, and won." "And you let the other bloodlines die out?!" @magister@ "I had to keep up appearances. And even I was unable to keep track of them, whilst also managing my own lands. Before I even realized it, war and conflict had done irreparable damage," he lamented. "But that's a topic for another day." "... Solaris. Is he the one that ruined my kingdom?" @magister@ "Yes... In a sense. The power that ravages your kingdom now is Solaris' raw power given form... Iblis." Upon hearing that word, she clutched her head, as if something in her head had been touched and didn't want to come out. "Gah...!" "Blaze!" They rushed to her side, making sure she was alright.

"?!" His eyes widened in horror once the word "Iblis" came up. The first clue! "Ah!" Then he turned to Blaze, concerned. "Blaze! What's wrong?!" "?" She looked over too, concerned.

"Oh come on, kid." she groaned. "We don't need a third threat right this second."

With the Master Emerald in tiny mode, Alucion managed to fit it into one of her crowns. "THERE! This should keep that old coot off my back until I can get the Grey Emerald back."

And he shot Alucion a glance. "Don't you think flaunting it on your crown like that is gonna make it even more obvious?"

"No, I'm fine... What do you mean, 'third threat'?" Blaze said, recovering. @magister@ "She means the seal on Iblis in your body, and no, that's not it. The seal on you far too stable. But... Hmm..." He placed a hand against Blaze's forehand, his magic diving into her mind. "I see. Recalling memories that you should not have. I suspect this has something to do with manipulation of the space-time-continuum." "WHAT?! That can't be possible, Iblis is-" @magister@ "-the portion of Iblis in your kingdom is merely a fragment that is continually birthing weak monsters. The rest is sealed in your body." He then looked at Silver, and his eyes narrowed. "Everyone here has an obvious reason to be here... Except you. Who are you?" "Oh, he's Silver! Apparently, he's looking for Sonic the Hedgehog for some reason. Probably. He said he was looking for a 'blue blur'..." @magister@ "... Oh? And did he ever tell you why?" They blinked, looking at Silver.

"...." He was too busy taking this information in. Blaze, the cat he just met, has Iblis, the very thing that destroyed his era. "...!" He turned to the Magister. "That's...it's complicated..." He grunted. "I'd rather not talk about it here..." She looked over at the princess. "...we'll need to alert the elder all is well, milady."

"Hey, I'd like it to be on a necklace, but NOOO, the elder strictly said 'The Emerald must be contained on the crown of the clan's youngest Princess. Blah-Blah-Blah'. Whatever, let's just tell the old man I've found a replacement and he should get back on the meds." Alucion shook her head before walking off.

"Come on now, Magi. Whatever the kid's reason, let's not pry. " She said, which translate as 'No spoilers'.

"...better do as she says." Knuckles noted as he began following Alucion. Whatever the case, he had figured that Aleena seemed to be the most reasonable figure here at the moment.

"... Very well." He looked between Silver and Blaze, eyes narrowing, as the group moved along. "I hope you understand that the seal needs to be kept stable at all costs. Solaris must not be released. We already have one violent god around." "But Solaris is the 'god of order'. How is he a bad guy?" "'Order' does not mean 'good', Carol Tea. While Chaos is the embodiment of the element that represents destruction and survival of the fittest, with a world ruled by chaos would consist of nothing but war, Solaris's aim is pure order - no creativity, no free will, just pure stagnation, with every living being praising his name for all eternity. That is the extreme opposite of chaos, and just as evil. That is why both gods were defeated and banished long ago." "Ooooookkkkaaaaaaaayyyy..." She simply blinked. "Interesting..."

He just quietly listened and took a glance at Aleena and Knuckles, thankful they intervened. "...well, I can say that I agree. The seal needs to stay that: sealed." He looked at Blaze. "I know you don't know me very well, but I wanna help however I can...if you don't mind. I didn't come along for any malicious intent." She followed the princess along too, taking a sigh.

"Have fun, kids." she said to the group before following the echidnas.

@magister@ "As she said, you must leave immediately. Find the other Sol Emeralds, and stop Chaos, while preventing Wendy and Brevon from getting their hands on them. I must stay here, and talk with the Echidna tribesmen," the Magister said, walking with Aleena. "I guess that means we should get back on the trail," she chuckled. "Let's go!" She then sprinted off. "Yeah, that's right! Let's go!" She got back on her bike, and sped off. "... Good grief," she sighed, and then chuckled, "well, Silver, though I only have my word for it, I do trust you, and I think they do too. You have saved my life twice at least. Shall we be off?" She then started running after the pair.

He smiled a bit and nodded. "Right, let's!" He followed too. 'Iblis was sealed in that girl...maybe I don't need to defeat Sonic...I just have to make sure it stays within Blaze...then the Land of Disaster won't exist...' Thought the boy, but would it really be that simple? Well, we'll find out.

BAM! BAM! BAM! Booming sounds echoed from within the elder's tent (locked at the moment with a magic barrier). "YOU THINK JUST BECAUSE YOU BROUGHT A REPLACEMENT, THE FACT THE GREY EMERALD IS STOLEN CAN BE FORGIVEN?!" "Owie... What? Its powerful! It turned small-boobies into a glowly angel thing." "DON'T CHANGE THE SUBJECT! YOU MIGHT BE LUCKY WE GOT PROTECT AGAIN, BUT THE FACT WE BRIEFLY WE IN DANGER IS STILL YOUR FAULT!"

He just rubbed his head lightly. "...can't believe the first echidna apart from me I meet was her. Can you believe that luck?" he murmured to Aleena.

She nodded and blinked. "Oh! Cosmo!" She rushed off. "I told he I'd only be a moment, I hope I didn't worry her!"

@magister@ He was simply listening, but he couldn't help but chuckle.
