Sophos: "Hopefully they won't. I hope they will love you again. I get weary of seeing families getting torn apart. I happens a lot here, like my family. Anyways, let's go!" :D (The go to Romulus' marble mansion. It is elegant, yet simple. It is nice and warm, not a cold, stren place. It is homely. They enter.) Sophos: "I can't wait for you to meet him! He's very nice to me any others. He'll even like you, Angelika!" Angelika: ".... maybe...."
Sophos: "Yeah.... but at least you know where they are and know what their doing.... my grandma and uncle are missing... they've been gone a long time, I'm told... I never even got the chance to see them... First my uncle then grandma.... *sniff* I-i hope they aren't dead... or worse... Then others in my family joined the End and probably will never return.... unlike you, Angelika..." Angelika: "Shhh.... It's ok... they're fine, just you wait. Let's see grandpa." (they open a large, ornate looking door. A Sage, around the same height as Octavian is sitting on a throne-like chair. He is reading. He picks up his head as they enter. Romulus is skinnier than Octavian or Augustus, and not as strong looking, but you can tell he isn't weak, either.) Romulus: "Why, hello! Are giving me a visit, Sophos? That's ver nice of you." (Sophos runs up to the now standing Romulus and gives him a hug. Romulus hugs back kindly.) Romulus: "I see you've brought guests. I recognize Angelika, but not the other two... Did you bring home outworlders? Interesting...."
(Romulus smiles kindly, but he his face hardens a bit when he looks at Eznier... but he brings himself to smile as well.) Romulus: "Nice to meet you both. Can't say I've ever been to that world. Perhaps other Sages have a long time ago, but certainly not recently. I have news on your book. It.s almost done. I will be finished and perfected by tomorrow. You gave us a good guideline, but soon it will be complete. Why don't you stay here in the mean time? It gets a bit sad having such a large home, but having no one else live in it... I'm just an old man with his books now... All I have left is my daughter and grandson... Everyone else is related by law or are missing/Ends... Why? Why did my brother leave me? Helios... You were great, but you've turned your back on everyone.... on me..." (He almost cries, but stops himself.) Romulus: "Ah... you don't want to listen to this old coot blather on... let's go to my private library. I'll make you outworlders some tea."
(They go to his private library. There is a warm fire going. On the mantel, there are pictures of his parents, himself, his brother, his two kids, Augustus, and Sophos... Above that is his family crest. It has a brilliant wolf on it. They sit in large, comfy armchairs. He serves Ezmel and Eznier tea, with pastries. He sits down.) Romulus: "Ah, Sophos. I was going to tell you some good news. Your father's brother, Reimus, had a child a while back. He's younger than you. We found him. He'll be coming here shortly. Your cousin. His name is Logos, which means Reason. You uncle is still an End, however and so is his wife, but they've agreed to let Logos live here and be a Sage. It's odd. Logos can't remember his parents well, or much anything else. He only has basic knowlege of our realm. I've agreed to take care of him." Sophos: "Really?! I have a cousin?! Since when?! No one's ever told me." Romulus: "They didn't want me to say anything until it was certain he would be coming here. He'll arrive in a few minutes." Sophos: "...oh wow... I can't wait to meet him!" :D Angelika: "That's wonderful! Sophos will have someone his age to be around. Someone like him."
Angelika: "The future is not for all to see... hopefully, the reunion will be a good one." ^^ (There is a knock on the door. Romulus answers it. A little boy enters the room. He is shorter and thinner than even Sophos. He looks nervous. Especially at Ezmel and Eznier. Their hair is red. He's never seen people like them.) Logos: "H-hi... I'm... Logos." (Sophos comes up and hugs him) Sophos: "I'm your cousin, Sophos! It's great to see you! I hope to make many great memories together!" :D Logos: "huh? oh... Ok!" :D
(Logos smiles back, not understanding 'creepiness.' He sits next to Eznier, curious.) Logos: "Um.... who are you? I-i mean.... What's your name?" *shy smile* (Sophos and Romulus sit back down in their chairs, they read while Logos meets Eznier, they are not paying any attention)
Logos: "It's nice to meet you! ^^ Ummm..... what do you do for fun? Maybe..... we can... do it together!" (He is trying to learn to be social, but he obivously is still trying to understand things. He doesn't understand creepy, or sinister.)
Logos: "That's kinda interesting... I'm told, though there aren't really any bones in this realm. People don't harm creatures here... I'm still trying to learn and understand things... I feel so awkward..... *sigh* But maybe we can do something fun together, right?"
Logos: "Ohhh... thank you! :D It looks neat! I'm taking Formula Lessons and I learned something new... wanna see?" *he put the bone carving in his pocket*
Logos: "Hmmm... *looks around* I don't wanna mess up the library though.... We'll just go to the main room!" (he walks off to the room with the throne-like chair Romulus was sitting in. He walks over to a wall and pulls out a pencil that uses white lead. He begins to write out a complex Formula. He writes it in a way that forms a shape. When he's done he steps back and looks at it. It's main shape is a circle, but the letters, numbers, and symbols then form a complex pattern on the inside of the circle, all ends of it point to one point: AEX7BPrime cubed.)
Logos: "Like I said! It's a Formula! This one is a Transport Formula. You can tell by it's circular shape. Formulas can do many things. They are pure science, no magic. They bend time, space, ever reality itself! But they have to be completely memorized to use. You can't just trace one or looks at one while you draw it. For it to work, you must know it by heart. The portion in the middle is the Answer. The Key. To be complete, that HAS to be there in the EXACT middle. It is acually a set of spacial coordinates. The 'cubed' means 3-dimensional. They physical space of the coordinates. Transport Formulas are MUCH safer than portals or teleporting. If you get caught between a portal when it closes, you'll be ripped in half. If you teleport an injured person, it could harm them far worse. If the Transport Formula collpases and closes while you are going through it, it'll merely push you into the realm you are further in. If you are over half way through it, it'll push you all the way before it finally closes. The sides of the hole it forms are solid, so you won't fall between realms. They are quiet useful, but hard to memorize when they are used for more complex tasks."
Logos: "Haha! ...I... forget... I think I used to know... I think I made this Formula... ngh... I can't remember.... well, let's activate it and find out!" (he reaches at the center... The wall begins to push inward as his hand draws near, as if it wants to stay away from his hand. The further he reaches at it the further it bends in ward, almost forming a tube... made of solid stone whose space is being bent. He is almost touching the Answer.)
(He touches it and it glows bright blue. It opens up into a tunnel-like feature. He peers to the other side. There is nothing but darkness. A terrible force begins pulling them in. Like gravity. Logos is almost pulled in. It's like a black-hole. Romulus, Angelika, and Sophos sense the energy being released by the Formula activating and rush to them. Sophos and Angelika are stopped dead in their tracks when they see the void before them. Romulus steps forward and tries to stop the Formula. He is nearly pulled in, but he manages to stop it. The wall returns to normal and the Formula is smeared and unable to be read anymore. He studies the Formula intently.) Romulus: "Where the heck did open to? And why in the name of all that is pure did you make a Formula in the first place?! They don't teach this one. It's very different from others I've seen.... who taught you this?" Logos: "I only wanted to show what I could do... I don't know where I was opening to... I can't remember where I learned it.... I'm sorry...." *sniff* (Sophos hugs Logos) Sophos: "Well, atleast everyone is fine. I'm glad everyone is safe." Romulus: "Hmmm....." *studies the Formula* " "It's unlike anything I've ever seen before...." (After studying it long enough, he wipes it off of the wall, removing it's existance)
(Angelika stares at the place where the Formula was, unmoving...) Sophos: "Hey, Angelika. Are you alright? C'mon anwser me!" Angelika: "Hmmm? Wha...? Oh... I'm fine..." (she smiles at Sophos. Romulus warns Logos never to use that Formula ever again, and the thre of them return to the library. Logos looks a bit sad) Logos: "Well... What now? What do you want to do?"
