*Walking through the middlelands in the mid-day sun was not fun, Cyprus could see why the villagers told her not too. She walked through the windy area before she stopped at a shade tree to drink water and take a rest. Closing her eyes and listening to the grass swishing in the winds she heard yelling in the distance. It sounded like a man. Standing up she decided to run towards the sound that grew louder every step she took*
Caridad
*The knight was on the ground, using his sword as a sort of cane and such. However, he was tending to his leg, taking off his iron greave on his right leg as he rubbed against the area before applying pressure.*

"Agh...! Dammit... Getting worse than I thought... Just gotta power through, it'll be fine. I've been through worse and an-"

*He would attempt to get up, using his sword as a crutch to get up while he yelled in pain.*

"ACHING LEG WON'T STOP ME!"
Guy
*Stopping in her tracks she looked around to see a man yelling. Running up she looked at him shocked*

Are you alright? What's wrong I'm a medic. I can help if you're injured.

*She knelt and surveyed his body when her gaze came to his leg, a sharp inhale being audible*
Caridad
"... A medic? Out here? And why are you here?"

*The man said, breathing heavily underneath the metal mask on his helmet. He still used his sword as a crutch, leaning on it and such before lowering himself back down on the ground.*

"It's just some aches on the leg, I'll be fine. Suffered worse anyhow..."
Guy
*She rolled her eyes going to pull of the helmet and leg guard*

I'm a traveling medic coming from Kahlo, and your leg doesn't appear to be fine

*Her tail swished the grasses behind her as she moved to the correct side of his body to work*

And for the why? I heard screaming and that doesn't normally end well. So I came to check it out
Caridad
*He would lift his hand up, waving his hand before pointing down at his leg.*

**"I gotta stay prepared. Just deal with the leg already."**

*He would say, before he puts his hand down once again, resting it on his left knee.*

"I'm heading to the capital. I've been too quiet within my line of work, and it's time I go back. Must've missed out on a lot."
Guy
*She hummed as she looked at his leg tending to the scraps and cuts putting pressure on the necessary spots*

Why the capital? It's quite dangerous there last I checked.

*She glanced up at the knight as she poured a small amount of tincture into a cup with water and handed it to him*

Drink it
Caridad
*... He sighs, grabbing the cup as he lifts his helmet, but not far up to get his helmet off as he drinks it, gulping it down before he breathes in and out and says.*

"Then that is perfect... It's been too long since I have dealt with sinners. And now they come to the capital? They will think twice."
Guy
*Looking at the man she sat back on her heels*

Sinners? I haven't heard that term for years, perhaps since the beginning of my travels

*She packed her things back into her bag as she watched him*
Caridad
"... Then maybe some bandits... Or no. It can't be just bandits. How dangerous was the capital last time you checked?"

*He says, relaxing his body as he keeps his right leg straight out just to at least let it heal and to limit his movement while it heals.*
Guy
*She thought, clicking her tongue*

I was in the capital perhaps a year ago and it looked battle wrecked. Theives, Poppy dealers, cartel. It was madness. I barely got out with my tail intact.

*She looked at the man*

Why would you be in the capital?
Caridad
"... I fought for the capital, and yet, I was blind in my pursuit... I forgot, they don't need to just fight us in the front... But they had insiders. And so, I will go forth. Celestia is my home, even if they use magic... I cannot question them however... But no matter what, this is still my home. I grew up here, and I will cleanse their filth away from the capital!"
Guy
*She stiffened as the mention of cleansing magic*

Cleanse magic? Whatever did it do to you? Magic is helpful to our everyday economy

*She sat on the ground criss cross as she watched him carefully*
Caridad
"And? Those sinners have long sat comfortably amongst the capital! Long have their exports and deals been smooth! It is time for repentance, and I will be the one to execute it!"

*He would attempt to get up, before the pain would hit him and he would sit back down again.*

"Argh! Once this leg heals..."
Guy
*She looked at him with a poker face wondering where his head was*

I can't tell if you're stupid or angry for some unspoken reason

*She stood and held a hand out to the man*

Don't put pressure on your leg but we can't stay here. It's going to be dark sooner with us having moved nowhere if you lay there
Caridad
"Let us get moving then, practitioner! Shoulder to shoulder, we shall act as one body!"

*He says, grabbing his iron greave and slowly gets up off the ground, using his sword as a crutch for him to hold onto and help him maneuver while keeping his stability.*
Guy
*She rolled her eyes sighing as she helped hold him up as they began walking*

So explain to me why you hate magic wielders so desperately?

*She looked to the sun and turned to head towards the capital*
Caridad
"I didn't need magic to win battles! Win wars! I didn't need it to win! Why learn all that nonsense when a sharpened blade works just as well?"

*He would say, coughing a bit as he lifts his helmet and spits onto the ground.*
Guy
*Looking at him with confusion she hit his back as he coughed*

Yes however that's, you.
How does that alter anybody around you with the fact you don't desire to use magic?

*She looked ahead and kicked a rock out of the way*
Caridad
"... Winning. Winning in true fashion! Winning..."

*... The man was eerily silent after that. Just staring off into nothing...*

*"... With what purpose...? With what purpose do I have the need to prove myself?"*

*He says, looking down at his hands. With what purpose does he serve? What does he want? What does he want for himself?*
Guy
*She looked at the sky as she listened to the man*

Winning fairly. To make the world around you a better place.

*She looked over to the man as they walked and sighed*

The world is cruel, and harsh, and unforgiving. Some use magic for evil while others use it for good and some just use it to help out themselves on a day to day basis. Such as a tired mother watching her kids might use water magic to do the dishes while a construction worker might use wind or earth magic to help his crew lift something. 

To have a purpose to use it wisely. Not in an unkind fashionm
Caridad
"... I shall reflect on that the next time I pray then. I'll figure it out soon, what I want to do. If I want to keep fighting... If you want a proper introduction, I am Vistam. Vistam Istavan, or from my friends they call me The Erudite."

*He says, looking over to the medic.*
Guy
*She smiled and looked to the ground kicking a rock*

I'm glad you'll ponder it. My name is Cyprus Novak. I have no aliases however most call me 'The Traveller' when I enter town

*She laughed*

Those kids fill me heart with joy. They come and show me all these beautiful things from flowers to magic, to food, to friends, to even body parts of they are like me and wield something like a tail. I help, I leave, I travel more. Quite fulfilling as lonely as it is
Caridad
"Sounds like a quiet life. Living on the roads, exploring the various capitals and kingdoms."

*He chuckles...*

"... I remember I used to have this harp... I played it when I was alone, on the field... I wish I still had it. Feeling the strings against my fingers."
