The group arrives in Xeni with everyone still hurt and unconscious.

Jason: "(struggling) Made it!"

Jason and Joseph collapse in the middle of the road.

Joseph: "(exhausted) That was painful."

Everyone in the nearby area are panicking.

???: "I'll take them to the Sages."

A girl with a heavy choice of weaponry walks up and puts all four of them on her back.

Jason: "(surprised) Jade?!"

Jade: "Jason?!"

Joseph: "(in pain) She's one of those friends you mentioned?"

Jason: "(in pain) Yeah."

Jade: "I'll bring you guys over."

Jade carries the four without breaking a sweat into the Sages' house in the center of town.

Jade: "I was found by them after I arrived here and explained my situation."

Jason: "Determined and down to the point, sounds like Jade Laven."

Jade sets everyone down.

Jade: "We've got some injured here!"

Two women wearing green and purple clothing enter the room.

Life Sage: "Who are these people Jade?"

Jade: "The one with white hair is one of those people I told you two about, but the others are a mystery to me."

The Sage heals Joseph and Jason.

Joseph: "I'm Joseph Yeweys, apprentice to the Light Sage and he's..."

Joseph helps the Sages move Jack and Eryth to beds.

Joseph: "Jack Yeweys, the chosen and the emissary Eryth."

Jade: "Where did you end up Jason?"

Jason: "In a nearby forest by the town of Lio."

Joseph: "If it weren't for Jason, we'd be slaves stuck in some mine."

Poison Sage: "That would explain the massive wave of energy we felt here."

Jason: "Jack did use the 15th Rune when his emotions were out of control."

Jade: "Well I got some interesting info here, the Sages have a traitor among them."

Joseph: "(shocked) A-A t-traitor?!"

Poison Sage: "One of us is in charge of the 13th Crown according to some of their grunts I managed to get to talk."

Jason: "(thinking) A Lucifer disciple..."

Jade: "They died of poison overdose, but it's neither of these two."

Joseph: "The grunts and general we took care of kept saying the name Aqua."

Life Sage: "That would lower it to the other female Sages, considering the fact Aqua is a common name."

Poison Sage: "But that leaves Lightning, Soul, Blood, Water, and Mind."

Joseph: "If only we didn't have the tradition of never a a Sage's name after they become a Sage this entire thing would be a hell of a lot easier."

Jason: "We can locate which one it is because..."

A look of dread sweeps over Jason's face.

Jason: "She's got Jake."

Jade: "Well that means we're going to help this Jack meet all of the Sages and find who is going to get their ass kicked."

Jason: "You do tend to spend minimal time lounging around and go when you can go."

Jade: "Well we just need to wait on Jack."

Joseph: "This is some crazy shit you guys are stuck in."

Jade/ Jason: "Try what we already went through."

Joseph: "(nervously) I'd rather not."
