Fighting of the Spirit

[shoukanjutsu]

My apologies for the delay, Ratatosk. All preparations are ready. Should any witnesses care to be present in case anything gets out of hand, you are welcome to observe.

((Was gonna do a long, well thought out post, but it's a total copout instead, sorry. =( ))

*HEYOOOOO this sounds intriguing, whatever it is.*

What're you up to? I might help out.

[shoukanjutsu]

An experiment. I don't think you'll be able to help any, but you're welcome to watch if Emil is alright with it.

[sore_feet_man]

What kind of experiment?

[shoukanjutsu]

An experiment to surpass the limits and expand the over-widening knowledge of man. Namely, this man.

[chaos_squirrel]

Yeah? I'll be there. Where do you need me to go?

[shoukanjutsu]

Come to the outskirts of the forest. I've set up in a clearing of sorts beside the northern path.

[chaos_squirrel]

I'm on my way now.

[Aaaand let's just assume he gets there?]

[shoukanjutsu]

Alright. There's another instructor here who wishes to observe -- Hopefully, you don't mind.

[The clearing that Klarth has set up is scattered everywhere with books, papers and assorted diagrams and drawings of all kinds. He is not willing to fail again. If Ratatosk was truly a Spirit . . . The Summoner was well prepared. Drawn crudely in the ground were several circles marked with runes and indecipherable figures. As Emil enters, Klarth approaches and immediately gets to the point.]

We'll carry out the contract as formally as possible. The answers to the questions I ask should be fairly self-explanatory -- Say yes. Try and refrain from making witty remarks. Anything you need to know before we begin?
