*After a light breakfast, Sirdan would propose for Yukine to come with him to the New Sunlight Training ground - specifically the one outside of the city. It would be a long walk, around 2 miles - with no way to shorten it by riding on a horse through the city street*

*Sirdan walked astride with Yukine - not holding her hand or anything, such public display of affection was best to be avoided*

"The trip to Runra has to be postponed.' *He said, not bothering to mince his word, and lowering his volume, making sure to only speak when no one is within earshot*

"Hu Lang and I need to deal with some family troubles here in the city, and we need someone or two we can trust to fight on our behalf. You're my wife, and you know your way around weapons. Would you be up to help us? We can talk details once we are at the guild."
Stacey
The kitsune's ear leaned forward, it was not necessary to speak so loudly so he could hear. Her crimson eyes surveyed the place around them, mimicking Sirdan's tone of voice to answer him.

"Oh, fight? You know I'd love to fight alongside you, love. But I don't know if I'm still as good as before, I mean, in recent years I've given up my adventurous life and risks to become a housewife-"

She adjusted the red cape that covered her tails and body.
Kate
The couple would continue their walk, getting closer to the city gate.* 

"Yes. Fight. We met in a fight together, randomly in Runra, and then in New Sunlight. Then things got a bit... Uhm. Physical." *He chuckled,*"And I feel the same. I have two gorgeous wife, house, all the wealth I could think of. I might've gained a few pounds recently too.." 

*He shook his head.*

"But I don't feel like retiring yet - So much more to strive for, to fight. I enjoy fighting and the thrills that come with it, even though I don't feel like I am fighting for anything." 

*He grabbed Yukine's hand.*

"Still, I'd love you to join me in fighting again - I admire strong, powerful woman."
Stacey
"Well, I think you'll soon find something to fight for. We just need to wait and it will come." 

Yukine squeezed Sirdan's hand lightly, following him through the crowd.

"I will do my best, my love. But in return I want you to help me find my true power again. What reminds me of this-."

She pulled a thick book out of her leather bag, the cover had a red stone in the middle embedded in the cover. It looked old, except for the ruby ​​glow.

"I feel like I should have brought this book, the one Katarina gave me. It might end up helping."
Kate
"Perhaps. Maybe we could travel to Mentia and fight for someone or something there. There's plenty of fighting to be had. But I don't know if you or I care that much for the Mentian." 

He continued to take her to the training yard, holding her hands tighter.

"Ever since I started adventuring, I've been pursuing simple goals - trying to save up enough to buy a set of plate armor, and then enough for my house, and then enough for comfortable living. It just feels like... I have everything now. I have two gorgeous wives and enough to live comfortably. I feel... Like stagnating. Don't know where's the drive to pursue immortality anymore, you know?"

The elf arrived in front of New Sunlight, and then turned to look at the book, releasing Yukine's hand. 

"This book? To find your true power? Let's go to the mage training yard. Have you been out of practice since that fight in Silnaria? I can find a summoner or mage instructor to help you."
Stacey
"Well, even my vampirism doesn't give me that many advantages. Since I came to this place I don't remember what my real goal was. Maybe survive..."

She thought for a moment. *Survive for those who failed.* Maybe it was too dramatic. But her longing for her family was immeasurable, and this trip to Runra would bring that feeling to her chest constantly. Arriving at the place, she released Sirdan's hand, showing the book.

"I think so, I need to get back into the habit again."
Kate
"Survive...? Mmmm, I am sure you can aim for a goal more ambitious than that, with your talents for magic. Maybe become a great alchemist, or a warrior!" 

He would bring her to the mage's training yard - which was also used for archery. There were five booths total, with bench and places to put down your belongings. 

"Let's start with the type of magic you would wish to practice... Or hell, would you still like to practice magical fighting? Or do you want to take up the blade. Do you fancy yourself a commander?"
Stacey
*"I feel that this trip will tell me..."* Yukine thought, without the courage to turn her thought into concrete words. "I hope so."

When they reached the magic training area, she put the leather bag aside, remaining only with Katarina's book.

"Commander? Well, magic interests me more, but I love to command others. And learning something about weapons would be useful too..." She began to think, her tail going from side to side. "I think magic."
Kate
"So, somewhere between a summoner, a mage and a spellblade. But one cannot be all three at once without being horrifyingly bad at all of them." Sirdan mutterd. 

"Wait here for a moment." He would head away toward the offices of the guild, and came back with a young looking mage,"I can't teach magic, so they can do that and I'll stand here and watch." 

"For your first spell, why not try the classic? A fire blast aimed at the dummy over there?"
Stacey
"Mhm."

Yukine nodded, leaving the book beside her bag and showing Sirdan where it was. What she wanted least was to lose that damn book. She then positioned herself in the place she remembered was the correct one, looking attentively at the targets he was supposed to hit. She took off her glove and raised her hand, pointing at the first target and trying to feel the heat of magic again.

An instant later, flames shot towards the dummy. They seemed a bit out of control, aggressive and fierce.
Kate
"I'm not expert in magic, but that doesn't look as good as it should be." Sirdan commented. 

The mage agreed,"Try to control the flame - when you imagine it forming in front of your finger, feeling it about to burst forth, try to hold it together, and then try again." 

Sirdan crossed his arm, and then sat down by the sides, not sure how much he can intervene. 

"You know, Yukine, have you considered moving to say, Lymia?"
Stacey
Yukine's ears perked up briefly upon hearing the comments. Following the instructions, she closed her eyes and concentrated on what she wanted. 

A spark, small and weak.

The flame grew, its heat increasing. Until...

This time the cloud of flames came out of the kitsune's hand with a bit more control, it was still a bit fierce and raw but there was a certain change.

"Lymia? I think I've only visited there once."
Kate
*The mage observed Yukine carefully.* 

"Now, once you feel it is about to burst forth, let go of your control, and then aim it at the target in front of you." 

*Sirdan waited for Yukine to unleash the fireball - lest he ended up scorched by accident due to distracting her.* 

"I've only visited the place once - landed in the port when I was on my way to Silnaria for that mission. It was a crowded, bustling place - great food and people. I heard property rights are quite valued there." 

"Maybe we could become rich and not worry about anyone taking our money away."
Stacey
*"Seems like an interesting place to visit. I've traveled to many places, unfortunately not all."*

*Yukine looked at the next target, her hand pointing and again releasing a cloud of flames, this time more normal than before.*

*"I'm starting to wonder if this is really a good idea... I want to learn new things."*
Kate
"Mmmm. I've came up with a new idea - Have you heard of the wars in Mentia? I think we should - Hu Lang, you and I, all three of us, travel there, and look for some opportunities to make our name. Feel what it is like to be fighting again." 

Sirdan would lift up his hand and concentrate his power, preparing another fireball and firing it at the target. 

"Do you fancy fighting with sword and shield? Maybe as a summoner? Maybe as a master of magic? Perhaps as a master of machine? Or an alchemist?"

While taking a break, the elf decided to pat both of Yukine's fluffy ears - one of his favorite activity.
