"No, not at all, you actually arrived with reletivly good timing." She pulled something out of her pocket, and slipped it on her hand, revealing it to be the bright gold gauntlet from the last adventure. "I was just about give a demonstration on what I have learned since our escape, as well as review what Miss Chaos told us." Narage held out her hand, palm up, and stared at it.
Nothing happened at first, the sunlight simply reflecting of the runes in the center. Slowly the glow strengthened, and began to take shape. Soon, a miniscule duplication of the angel-like figure from before stood just above her palm. Narage explained: "I decided to play with the glove for a while, and I kinda discovered this feature by accident, just by getting the light to filter off of it in the right way... It can sorta play through what she did before, including what she had said. Obviously it took a few spells to be able to control the sort of 'echoes' that it reverberated from it, but anyway, on to our question." The Chaos figure moved, playing out a few selected sequences while Narage concentrated:
It spoke.
"You children have done the impossible, slaying a creature that cannot be slayed, and surviving a battle that should have rightly claimed your life to law." Narage twitched her finger, skipping ahead--
"I am the Lord of Chaos, or at least part of her.---I am here to point you in the right direction, for this is only the begining of your task.---The sun contains the Lord of Law, and moon, myself. Such is the way of things since the world was remade the last. Yin and Yang, Law sealing Chaos, and Chaos sealing Law.---You are all chosen to be the Defenders of Chaos, as the officials of this world seek to aid Law. Under these circumstances, I am allowed to choose my champions, before I meet my end.---you all must find and keep the Keys of World away from those who wish to extinguish me and restore my brother.---I appologize Kaosu. You and Narage do not recieve gifts. You are one of the Keys of World. It was not my doing that brought you here, as my brother, and myself have no power over your will. As for powers, there are arts reserved only for the Keys, but they must be discovered on your own.---You Defenders of Chaos must find the remaining Keys of World and do whatever you can to keep them from Law, no one but those here can be trusted, your government has been compromised.---Find the Keys, Kaosu will know when you find one. The fate of this dimension rests on your hands, you alone must fend off the Warriors of Law, and restore the balance.
The image disappeared in a shower of transparent sparks, and Narage pulled back her hand. "Well that told us considerably less than I thought it would..." She rested her chin on her folded hands thoughtfully.
