[1: Arrival] No longer was he within the castle walls anymore, let alone the room where the Proof of the Pillar once resided. Instead, he found himself inside an underground tunnel with a brief synopsis of his whereabouts and requirements to complete one of many missions to save his world from total annihilation.
As much as he could remember, the Magic Knights and the three neighboring countries used their combined powers to eradicate the newest threat to Cephiro with Hikaru ready to enact her wish as the new Pillar. So how could the world Princess Emeraude - and himself among others - loved with all her heart be in the crosshairs so soon after the fact? Were all the sacrifices and literal blood, sweat, and tears made prior to Deboniar’s defeat be for naught?
Had he not overexerted himself moments before his untimely arrival in Etraya, Clef would’ve actively sought out answers on his own if only to ease the growing wariness about the current situation. For now, the best alternative while in his weakened state was to recuperate and silently observe the many passersby until an opportune time.
[2: Disrobing] After an undetermined amount of hours, the psychically young Guru arrived at a library with an overall atmosphere reminiscent of times past. It triggered a memory about life in Cephiro before everything fell apart, which he immediately nipped in the bud a second later. After all, Hikaru’s eventual wish would prevent history from repeating itself with the love of many to determine the fate of their country. Admittedly, what was said back at the tunnel managed to cause some form of doubt about that particular prospect… which may explain why he’s in the reception area in the first place.
He made his way past a certain desk and the long line beside it, his belief in the gentleman’s vocal concern about his wardrobe nonexistent. Due to Clef’s status as the most powerful mage of all Cephiro, he already looked the part with the elaborate robe and intimidating staff. Unless proven otherwise, he would instead focus on his own abilities rather than the clothing of complete strangers. Trust should be earned and if past experiences meant anything, it won't be given so easily.
[3: Unfamiliar familiars] Blue eyes glanced over the three animals known as familiars, each with the potential to help aid him in the mission to find the missing pieces inside the library. He weighed the pros and cons of the toad, rat, and cat in silent contemplation until a thought came to mind…
If he summoned one of his own to take part in the mission, their presence alone may lessen or even diminish any liability of the current familiars. The only downside was further strain to his body, which had not fully recovered from his previous ordeal back home. But if it meant a successful outcome and in the long term a safe Cephiro… If it meant the prevention of more emotional turmoil the Magic Knights were already dealt with…
The jewel on his staff began to glow as he spoke the following words.
“Creature, I summon thee…!”
[4: Wildcard] If anyone has an idea with a prompt you want to try out with Clef, feel free to DM this journal. I also have Discord with daydreamergirlie as my username if you prefer that form of contact instead.
