Kayto listened to the story and glared at the figurine. "A good figure to have, after all the expansion "truth and lies" revealed that the queen of veldershard refused peace and initiated hostilities, spinning the story to paint the exotic ways and technologies of mistral as heretical. the player characters despairing as they learn they were on the wrong side all along... i love japanese plot twists, they are always so completely unexpected and compelling, wouldn't you agree?"<br/>his smile was still present but inwardly he fumed. he had better things to do in this country than trading false smiles with the spoiled brat, but she clearly insisted on them being hostile.<br/><br/>Jayde had by then received her figurine as well, she knew exactly what it all meant too, Kayto and herself being among the first players to complete the questline and causing the Queen of Veldershard to cast drain life and drain magic on herself, trapping her in eternal agony, befitting of the treacherous bitch. she couldn't keep from grinning at the thought of putting Sabrina in the only place she really belongs, permanently. done unpacking she gives the figurine  a nice spot on the shelf.<br/>"So nice of Sabrina to welcome us with something so rare, maybe we'll see her on the student council too." where Jayde could keep an eye on her and make sure they weren't spied on because the spy was in the same room.<br/><br/>--------------------<br/>April 2nd Monday<br/><br/>Kayto sat up groggily, he hated portent dreams like that, they always tried to convince him he had no control. he quickly got to making himself look presentable though and arrived to school early, he was a public figure now after all, technically only class public, but the schools here offered a much greater future impact than any western high school. once there he made to get himself situated with the state of the student council, whatever possible good good still be done under the new management, and of course, how to pull the proverbial cart out of the swamp.<br/><br/>Jayde on the other hand nearly ran late, having been shaken much more by the strange dream, she hadn't even really noticed her other roommate the night before, and now she was already short on time, so she jsut gave a hasty apology as she speedran her morning routine and rushed off to school. intent on meeting up with Kayto before classes start and finding him at the council room. "Heya." "Jayde, i was already worried you'd be late on our first day." "ehehe, that doesn't normally happen you know? so, anything useful?" "the casual friday concept could have gone places, but i doubt anything liberal is going to get a pass anytime soon, a poisoned well, if you will." "speaking of, Sabrina's gifts were quite nice, weren't they?" "indeed, i had no idea they got done with the translations already and she's casting us as the betrayed royals that ultimately triumphed." "hope whoever has the demon queen figure won't get mad that fate has cast her in the role of the loser." "now now, i'm sure Sabrine meant nothing bad, it's a new school year and only a fool would pick a fight on the first day."<br/>"good point brother, welp, off we go to the opening ceremony... got a speech prepared?" "a few general niceties and a little recruitment call to anyone willing to get the student council on the road to betterment... i would have liked if i could have mentioned mike as a supporter but that was a long shot."
