				<strong>Character:</strong> Viktor Ursa<br><strong>Location:</strong> Rush Valley<br><strong>Player:</strong> JessieJames<br><strong>Tagging:</strong> All Players<br><hr><br>The sun beat down upon the harsh near barren lands of the western quarter of the great country of Amestris. Barely a breeze blew tossing some sand from the towering cliffs and mountains that surrounded the heart of Automail country. Glimmers of gold in the distance that quickly became clear was merely an off tan brown that could only be sand. <br><br>Streets of the great town known as Rush Valley were loud and bustling despite the god forsaken heat that had many seeking the shade of pavilions and shops which were only hotter thank to their furinses that helped smelt and shape their ‘gold’ of the hills. Iron. <br><br>Iron that was used to make the best automail available. It glimmered on the shoulders of many who walked among the crowds. The unmistakable sound of people walking with the steel limbs echoed about as much as the ringing of hammer to steel on anvil. <br><br>People generally seemed happy despite the loss of some part of themselves. It saddened Viktor though. His icy blue gaze traveled from one person to another as he sat in the safety of a shop next to a wall of premade mail. These were people who found a hope in something he couldn’t wrap his head around. <br><br>It was nothing like his alchemy. His alchemy was sensible and clear to understand. Who would have thought it couldn’t help those who lost flesh and bone to mend and heal. Well not easily and not without a high price for that matter. A price that most couldn’t pay. <br><br>Bored with the sitting around doing nothing he headed towards the front of the shop and grabbed a bucket filled with clean fresh water. Slipping on a pair of fur lined leather gloves he smiled down at the liquid. Etched into the leather was his circle. <br><br>Pressing his palms together he then touched the water in the bucket with his finger tips. A flash of beautiful blue and white light later the water was ice. Shifting his weight he pulled out his knife and started chipping away at the substance and scooping it into little paper cones and handing them to children that passed by.<br>

She sat and quietly&nbsp; ate as she people watched and eventually&nbsp; turned her gaze as she saw the tell tale flash of alchemy occur and&nbsp; they all to familiar&nbsp; surge of&nbsp; the energy from its use tugging at her senses and as she watched&nbsp; the alchemist&nbsp; turn water unto ice and&nbsp; giving it to the kids she&nbsp; took a deep breath and smiled and watched&nbsp; this display with a smile on her face as she continued to eat her meal.

				<strong>Character:</strong> Viktor Ursa<br><strong>Location:</strong> Rush Valley<br><strong>Player: </strong>JessieJames<br><strong>Tagging:</strong> All Players<br><hr><br>Somethings were easy to miss when one was suffering from the sweltering heat. The occasional cuss word from a smith or a scream or two of automail being disconnected or reconnected. At least the ice in his bucket was staying ice so far. He was already half way to the bottom of it unfortunately. <br><br>He saw a glimpse of blue that disappeared into a near by deli.<br><br>Less than a second later his attention shifted to a tall somewhat haggard looking female who seemed to be favoring her shoulder slightly. Scooping ice into a paper cone He stood and stepped into her path, "You look like you could use this," He smiled and gave a wink. <br><br>Many might say he was flirting but in honesty he just felt the woman needed something worth smiling about even if she through the ice-cone back into his face. It would be a pity if she did.&nbsp;

				<strong>Character:</strong> Viktor Ursa<br><strong>Location:</strong> Rush Valley<br><strong>Player:</strong> JessieJames<br><strong>Tagging:</strong> All Players<br><hr><br>It was odd to hear someone think he was pitying them but he supposed not unheard of. Tilting his head to the side he gave a shrug, "I though you might need this but not because you look pathetic," He stated, "Its more that I thought you might simply be fatigued due to lack of water." <br><br>Heat stroke was common in these parts from what he understood and was especially rampant among those with automail. The metal while designed to functional still behaved like metal and heated up under the gaze of the sun. A loud explosion broke him from his musings. His gaze instantly finding the expanding black cloud of smoke from the foothills just south of their location. His gut clenched in that way only having seen battle first hand would make one do.&nbsp; <br><br>"I hope that wasn't as bad..." He never finished as a few women and children came running down the streets pleading for help. It was hard to understand what they were trying to convey in their panic but he understood well enough, "This is not a good day." <br><br>Hell he thought here he wouldn't have to use his alchemy for anything but fun and games. And Rush Valley wasn't known for its alchemist to say the least. His voice carried as he stood up straighter. Years of being under the command of General Armstrong had built him into the type to take charge if no other authority was about. It was how she trained all of her men, to function as their own unit of command in the absence of it. <br><br>"Clear the streets! All able bodied follow me." <br><br>The scene was simple. A nearby underground mine had collapsed due to a misplaced keg of gunpowder. Workers were trapped inside with limited time of survival. He would need alchemy that worked better than his own, "By chance are their any alchemists around?" Besides myself he added mentally.
