Caira was at a dangerous point in her life, as she was still deciding who she would choose to be. The pondering that echoed in her mind like the dripping of a single drop of water and remained persistently incessant in the back of her mind. This uncertainty made her dangerously unpredictable. Even to herself.
Though she exited the Library a different way than she had entered, her footsteps resembled the imprint of a choice as they pattered lightly down the stone stairs.
Exhaling a breath the mage sighed, anger was such a transient emotion and she had let it get the best of her at the Nexus, never again. But now, stickily, remorse clogged her cognition and slithered into her thoughts. Remorse too, was a sentient sentiment, one she might come to learn too well. The skepticism of her own doubt caused a slight compromise as she would lead her footsteps. She was deliberating what type of person she wanted to be.
The planned rendezvous with TBG on the outside of the Library and carried Caira's footsteps onward. As she departed from the foyer, her head swiftly turned to either side then deliberating which pathway to take, met with an unexpected surprise. In her back.
"O-oof" The mage said ungracefully and was taken off her feet but the nuzzling of a Pegasus. Her Pegasus. The same one that had taken her from the sky. "Oh. It's you." Caira said in an unamused voice and raised a brow.
The white winged steed bounced flamboyantly, while bobbing its head and mane, trying to tell her something. "I'll tell you what. If you can take me to TBG, I'll forgive you." Assuming the creature had taken the deal, the clacking hooves resounded through the sleek cobblestone alleyway and finally brought her through the tunnel of slick darkness into an opening that beamed with sunlight.
The essence of the courtyard that the Pegasus led Caira to, was only really about ten feet away from the great wooden doors she had just emerged from. And whether the woman liked it or not, she had to validate that the pink and red rimmed figure approaching her was indeed TBG. The girl had questioned the library before turning over some information she had acquired on a lead.
With a nod, Caira agreed "Yes, I think I found a valuable resource." But it wasn't quite clear whether she meant the books within the heavy bag over her shoulder, or those whom had befriended her within.
"A mage?" her eyes simmered resolutely as the poster was revealed. She leaned forward, her nose hovered near the etched papyrus. "It says there's a reward for him either dead or captured.." she paused almost gulping, "Or banished."
It seemed like a harsh consequence when the poster didn't specifically mention how he had killed anyone. But the aggressive destruction implied at the library caused her to ponder how severe a punishment crossing boundaries really deserved. Caira didn't have a banishment circle nor knew how to obtain one, and was grateful. This meant that their resort would be capture, her preference, or death. Which was a bit of a draw back, considering that Omni had said Primes could come back.
Still, TBG offered that she had had some experience with this sort of thing, the experience would be greatly appreciated if they were now teaming up to pursue this bounty.
Consequently how this all played into the Omniverse Caira wasn't sure, but the pieces were there, and the deliberation only took her a second. If the two could get to him before any other bounty hunters, the chance to reason with him would be the best. That is, until her eyes drifted to the final line. Doesn't listen to reason. The female mage thought for a second, then accepted the challenge with the stakes of Magus's life on the line.
"I'm up for it. Also, I feel curiously inclined to ask him why he chose the library of all places to establish a name like this for himself." This comment was mainly meant to turn the hunt onto a lighter note. Caira did not tell TBG that she would resist banishing him if she could, which was a bad gamble considering the two could easily die from this. Or worse. So she reconsidered and voiced this wondering the reaction that might be returned.
"Recently, I watched a friend be banished and I would like to request we not do this unless we deem him truly guilty or unless we do not have a choice. Banishment looks like a horrible fate. Even for this guy."
Perhaps her mercy would get her killed. Eyes fell from the poster to TBG, considering her age and resolving that should she become threatened, Caira would find a way to reverse the peril at her own cost.
Astonishingly enough, someone else in the had seen a glimmer of the poster they displayed and pusillanimously approached the two from behind. It was quite evident the small person was intimidated by the presence of the collaborating Primes. He whom looked as though used to be a guard of Dalaran but now was much too aged to be active and on duty. The wisps of his beard touched his chest and the step of his wooden cane came to a halt.
"Um.. Excuse me, you wouldn't happen to be attempting finding that person.. Would you?"
A question? How peculiar.. He may have wanted to do some sort of trade, or know who we are hunting.. Or if he is a Mage it could be this mysterious Magus in disguise! Her skeptical thoughts did not touch the straightforwardness of her words.
"That depends.. You wouldn't happen to know where he is, would you?"
The veteran guard looked content, "Ah, now that's the question, isn't it?"
