"It's nice of you all to join me, I have some news," Kenjin replied, drinking his ale. "But first, we are missing someone. Someone rather interesting that I have taken the liberty of manipulating into coming here. As neither Sin nor Dark could be here, I wanted someone powerful to arrive here, as I felt where we are going, we will need it."

"Why are we here Kenjin?" Tuariv asked in annoyance. "You always do this."

"What have I told you about patience?" the Encorna asked the lizard, playing with his voice to make Tuariv sound like a woman, a power he had once acquired but had never really used. "Anyway, Surge, could you kindly join us?" He rose his voice to the point where the strange man standing by the bar could hear.

The giant turned around very slowly, almost making a point to be so dramatic, before turning around to face the Encorna, who was calmly sitting in his chair, completely at peace. "What do you want?" he hissed, taking a step towards the table.

"Well, I was hoping you were up for a rather interesting challenge," he muttered back, pulling up a chair for Surge with his giant arm. "That is, if you think you're up to it. Depending on the outcome, you could grow in strength."

"Strength you say?" he asked, grinning at the thought for more power. "If it's as powerful as you make it seem, I will come with you."

"Very good," Kenjin replied, as Surge sat down. "Now then, the reason I have asked you all here is very simple. We are going on a mission to save a village."

"Seriously?" Nonin asked, his ears perking up.

"Yes indeed Ronin," Kenjin replied, taking a sip of ale. "This village seems to be under attack by guardian spirits, so we are going there to cleanse them."

"What's the point of this?" Tuariv asked.

"Simply put, we will have to make some sacrifices," Kenjin replied. "There are six spirits, one for each of us. We will battle these things, and we will have to do what is needed. We will need to absorb the spirit power into ourselves in order to soothe them. A beast for each of us, one of the tiger, owl, wolf, panther, the komodo dragon, and the human. We will have to take them into us to pacify them."

"I want you to stay here for a while," he muttered, standing up. "I have some business to take care of before we leave. Do whatever, just don't leave. I'll be back soon."

With that, he vanished, moving at high speeds to wherever.

OoC: Okay, here's how this is going to work. There will be no set order, but you have to wait until after two people post before you can post again. I'll be back soon, so don't worry. This is mostly to get Surge into the Knights.
