- With so many troops on the move to Dorrecium, thieves and monsters are at an all time high - calling all Hunters!

- The Order Headquarters -

Order Headquarters descriptions.

The Order of Capricorn in situated on a mountain, surrounded by five hills. It is said that the hills hold power, sealing a great power from long before the scions. Anyone who walks on the mountain feels this intense power pressing on them mentally. Combined with the thin air, the Capricorn Order is not one for the weak minded or bodied. The Order members have long since adjusted to it and the trial of the mountain is all the recruits need to prove themselves.

The Order itself is self sustaining with wells drawing water from underground rivers, fish and meat from the surrounding area and plants and herbs growing naturally on the hill and mountainside.

The grounds are made up of a training ground where Order members compete; fighting many different kinds of opponents, a great kitchen where skilled Capricorns cook for everyone, Rooms for every Order member. Squires and Knights on the ground Floor and Arc Knights - as well as the Judge herself - on the second floor.

Due to their environment, Capricorn members tend to be secluded, drawing closer to each other, creating one large family. However when needed Capricorn members will fight, even if they are not wanted…

At the height of its glory, the Order of Cancer was a sight to behold for those sailing the nearby coastline. It sat majestically along the side of a mountain range. The outer walls were well fortified with guards stationed at its battlements. Past the outer wall separated by a moat and a draw bridge was the inner walls of a chateau-like complex. The main courtyard was vast with a statue of Zeromus at its center. To the left of the courtyard was the Barracks, a sturdy building worthy for the warriors it housed. It consisted of three floors, at the first had rooms for Squires, the second for Knights, and the third for Arc Knights.

To the right of the courtyard was the Training Grounds. It consisted of an archery range and different fields designated for various types of battle. A building at the corner of the Training Grounds housed practices rooms for interior combat situations.

Past the courtyard was the main Mansion. The dining hall was elegant with paintings along its walls depicting the valor of the Zodiac Braves. A pair of stairways curve up to the second floor. Meeting rooms line up on both sides, leading to the center room of the High Council of Magisters. This room was where the important decisions were made in the Order. A small stairway from the back of the room led upstairs to the Judge's Private Chambers, so that the Judge was always close to his work.

Behind the Mansion was the Lighthouse and Observatory for stargazing. A mountain stream cascaded down into a waterfall that supplied the water for the moat. From a secret passageway in the mansion, one was able to travel deep underground to the Temple of Zeromus and the Cancer Stone.

But years of neglect of taken a toll on the Order. Vines have grown out over the statue of Zeromus, cracks in the walls are visible, and everything is basically in shambles. Slowly but surely, the Order shall return to its former glory.

Though surrounded by water from the nearby sea, the Order of Leo can be seen glistening brightly in the sun. The nearby ground is jagged and rough due to their scion's power. The path to the order rising above the swamps all the way from Goug. Like a path lit with gold it leads all who follow the ideals of Leo safely through the wilderness. Once one has passed first wall of the complex they see a garden housing various plants brought from all the corners of Ivalice. Through the garden they emerge into the outdoor training area, filled with all manner of devices, it shows that the facility is equipped to train anyone from the most hardened of warriors, to the most novice, to even those who fight with magic.

The Order is comprised of a monolithic tower; housing a dozen floors, as well as 3 smaller buildings in various design. The tower holds everything the order would need to survive on it's own for ages on end. With 30 foot ceilings, pools, and indoor gardens on most floors the tower is far from common on the inside. The first floor holds a hall, leading to the center of the tower's foundation, where the holy stone of Leo is housed. The second, a barracks, each room a paragon of luxury designed through magic by the tenant's own subconscious upon first entry. The third floor is an indoor training ground, with more mechanical devices than the outside training grounds, as well as a regular stock of monsters from the surrounding swamplands, it proves to be far more harsh than it's outside counterpart. The fourth fifth, and sixth floors house libraries, guest quarters and various other pleasantries to keep the occupants of Leo entertained. The seventh and final floor of the monolith is a green house that grows most of the food for the order. Throughout the entirety of the tower are secret hallways, known only by the reigning Judge, their walls are insulated enough so that the rooms outside would hold in heat and out cold, but thin enough to where any conversation could be overheard, along with such details there are peepholes scattered throughout the labyrinthine paths as well as several secret exits and entrances on each floor. The other buildings of the complex house various supplies as well as extra rooms for guests to stay in, in case those in the tower are taken.

~Somewhere between The Order of Cancer Headquarters and The Castled City of Zaland~

Kieran had left the Order of Cancer's establishment only hours ago shortly after being accepted into their Order. He had not lingered there for long or really made any aquaintances however, as he had a personal objective to accomplish; to arrive at the Orbonne Monastery and utilize the immense library housed below it to find some answers to the questions he seeked.

The Order had however provided him with a map of Ivallice, so that would most certainly be of use to him in his travels. According to the map, Kieran would have to go through the Zeirchele falls and Araguay Woods. This path would actually lead him through Dorecium, a different section from the one in which he was currently in. At least that would give him a chance to see what was going on in another part of the world..

Rolling the parchment back up and storing it neatly within his side-pack, he made his way East towards The Castled City of Zaland, the last city he'd get to visit before his 3 day journey through the hostile areas. Hopefully the city's merchants had Potions in stock, or else his chances of survival would decrease drastically.

~In the garden of Leo, Seventh floor of the Monolith~

Alundra sighed. She felt safe here for some reason. She took a deep breath and sighed, gazing out into the wilderness before her. Alundra felt as though she had a heavy weight upon her, but then again it could be just because of her newly appointed position. She sighed again and slowly descended to the first floor.

~The Castled City of Zaland~

After several hours of walking on foot, he arrived at The Castled City of Zaland by nightfall. He quickly made his way to the nearest shop, and was relieved when he saw they had many potions in stock. He did not have very much money, however, so he only purchased 3. Hopefully that would suffice for his small journey.

Having traveled with his father several times when he was younger, he was familliar with one of the first rules of a traveler: 'Pubs were the place to go if you seeked information.' Kieran himself was not a drinker at all, but he figured some information as to the country's current state would be useful.

He entered into a dimly lit Pub, and took a seat at the counter. The bartender eyed the 17 year old for a moment before taking his order. These places intimidated him a bit, and the men there usually looked pretty scary. He kept his face low, eyes focused on the cup of apple juice before of him, avoiding eye-contact with anyone who so much as glanced in his direction. Kieran was NOT about to just walk up to someone and start a random conversation in hopes of getting information. It wasn't his style. He kept his ears open and listened in on the nearby conversations, as he quietly took a sip from his mug every now and then.

~First Floor of the Monolith, Leo Order~

Alundra kept gazing out into the wilderness and felt something she hadn't in a long time; loneliness. She sighed. The nearest town was Goug and even that was a long travel. Her heart felt heavy yet again. "Am I cursed to lonely forever?" She muttered to one in particular. Never had the Leo Order been so quite...

Posted: Mon Nov 24, 2008 11:03 pm

~Near the entrance of Leo~

Feeling quite enough of the loneliness, Alundra finished packing things for her long trip. She had made up her mind to visit her allies in the other orders. Her first destination was Pisces, where an good friend of hers was located. With a sad sigh, Alundra climbed on top of her black chocobo and headed out into the wilderness.

~Outskirts of the Clockwork City of Goug~

Alundra could see the faint outline of the town ahead. She sighed. It had taken nearly all day to reach the town. Slowly, she head to the inn and managed to get a room, much to her surprise. Alundra found her room soon enough and settled in. Slowly, out of her pack, she pulled out a map and traced a path to the Order of Pisces. "Oh my..." She said as her finger lingered on the Order of Gemini. "They are in the same region? Huh, I guess I can stop by on my way...." She put the map away and went to sleep.

Kieran had gained information as to the country's current status, and of how Prince Sephystian has sent troops to the Doriceum border. He wasn't sure how this might affect him, but it shouldn't pose any major problem to him.

He awoke the next morning at around 8, and after a quick shower he was ready to go. He'd found a low class inn in which to stay for the night, which was great as he did not have much money.

After paying for his stay, he headed towards the Zeirchele falls, located in Dorecium.

~Aboard a ship heading towards The Magick City of Gariland and leaving Goug~

Alundra had indeed garned some stares as she sailed on the ship. It was unusual for someone like her to travel. She sighed. Alundra had taken the wrong turn and ended up going in a circle. "Plans have changed..." She muttered with a sigh. "Ah well, let's see where my feet take us shall we?" Her only companion gave a weary wark. It had been a tough battle to get her only friend aboard...and a lot of gil.

~Halfway across the ocean, near The Magick City of Gariland~

Two days had rolled by and Alundra stared into the vast ocean with a sigh. She had failed to make any new allies aboard the ship and to be honest, she preferred to keep it that way. She sighed again. Loneliness still clung ever so tightly to her. Alundra began to slowly think of her travel as nothing more than a pilgrimage and a chance to see the world. Alundra stretched and retired to her room for the rest of the travel.

~The Magick City of Gariland, inn~

Alundra stretched as she checked in. It had taken three days to sail across the ocean and Alundra felt slightly sea sick. She decided to rest before she crossed the border into Atkasia. Quietly, the Ark Knight shook her head and took the key the innkeeper held out to her. "Ah, such a long journey...." She muttered as she climbed the stairs and turned in for the night.

~Zierchelle Falls~

The sound of rushing and falling water soothed Keith, which was sitting on a dry rock nearby the fall. Taking a rest, Keith went to the Falls of his own accord to patrol the place. It is a popular place, and merchants go through the falls to do their business, but the Mindflayers have been making trouble lately. He yawned, scanning the place with his eye, his left hand resting on the pommel of his saber.

He had around 5 potions, enough for a battle with a few Mindflayers. He was more scared of their infamous Mind Blasts, though Keith is a strong willed man.

Alundra stared and glanced back one last time. There was no turning back. With a bated breath and a heavy heart, Alundra crossed the border....
