Princethief's Nexus Travel Thread

[Demetri Malius]

Continued from Honor Among Thieves

IRIS suddenly alerted the thief as numerous messages came through about the final stages of the Institute preparing to execute the final parts of the plan to take out Volvagia. However, it seems that the passage of time there was much faster than where Demetri stood, as words seem to fill the screen and IRIS beeped with messages. 
Demetri checked the messages as he proceeded down to the cellar, unloading his satchel of Victor's Daggers, Shay's pistols, and Yu Kanda's word, but kept spare sword and shield from the war. He felt much ligher.

It did not take long for them to cross the Nexus, skittering across the white, plain ground as they glanced at the wreckage of the fountain as they rushed to the portal of the Ashen, feeling the heat before they even went through. Demetri felt a tinge of deja vu as he felt the heat, remembering his time when he had come here, before he had developed the abiities he hand now.
